0:00
Speaker 1: Huddle it up on a Thursday. Drew billion Arman bringing
0:03
Speaker 1: it to you from headquarters. You can reach us eight
0:06
Speaker 1: seven seven seven nine four nine seven three to the
0:08
Speaker 1: nicolay Law dot com talk and text line. A lot
0:11
Speaker 1: of conversation about Giannis because we are within one week
0:13
Speaker 1: of the NBA trade deadline.
0:15
Speaker 2: Yes, he's hurt.
0:16
Speaker 1: Yes, the rumors are flying, none of them are that appealing,
0:20
Speaker 1: and uh, we continue to monitor the situation with the
0:24
Speaker 1: greatest player of this generation for the Bucks, one of
0:26
Speaker 1: the greatest players in franchise history, one of the most
0:29
Speaker 1: important figures in Wisconsin sports history, his futures hanging.
0:32
Speaker 2: In the balance right now.
0:33
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I had definitely flippantly said a number of
0:37
Speaker 3: times the best player in franchise history. Then I have
0:41
Speaker 3: I have looked in the numbers. Are the numbers are
0:43
Speaker 3: done from Korea, So there.
0:46
Speaker 4: Does need to be at least they're.
0:48
Speaker 1: Co Yeah, one A, one B.
0:50
Speaker 3: But there does need to be the one of because
0:53
Speaker 3: you gotta put some respect on the rot that that
0:56
Speaker 3: man was going on, because otherwise he doesn't get any
0:58
Speaker 3: respect in the greatest player all time candidacy, because frankly,
1:02
Speaker 3: it just becomes a two man ran.
1:04
Speaker 1: Well, the Bucks had two of the greatest players in
1:06
Speaker 1: NBA history before Giannis arrived, with Oscar and Kareem.
1:10
Speaker 2: Now Oscar was the end of the line, you know,
1:12
Speaker 2: Robertson was.
1:13
Speaker 4: It becomes a question of how much they played with
1:15
Speaker 4: the franchise, You consider them, you know all that stuff.
1:18
Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean Kareem's numbers even in the short
1:21
Speaker 4: time he was here, or like as good as it's nasty.
1:25
Speaker 3: But if both end in the same way, them them
1:28
Speaker 3: asking to be moved.
1:29
Speaker 1: Now one doing it a little bit more openly and
1:31
Speaker 1: demandingly than the other, well at least publicly, because again
1:35
Speaker 1: one one might be doing a lot more behind closed doores,
1:37
Speaker 1: but you don't want to hear it, or don't doesn't
1:39
Speaker 1: want to make it very public. This ends the same way,
1:43
Speaker 1: and I think it'll be a much different conversation. It
1:45
Speaker 1: is pretty funny though, because you look back at the
1:48
Speaker 1: Kareem trade, the world was so much different.
1:51
Speaker 2: Milwaukee was. This was post and it's like he wanted
1:56
Speaker 2: to be back in.
1:56
Speaker 1: This guy from New York who went played in college
1:59
Speaker 1: in la It's dropped in Milwaukee in the seventies, in
2:03
Speaker 1: the sixties and the seventies, Yeah, it wasn't you know
2:06
Speaker 1: it was different world.
2:07
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
2:08
Speaker 4: Wasn't it like a slow request. Wasn't it like basically
2:11
Speaker 4: they knew for a year he won.
2:12
Speaker 3: He said, I'm not going to resign in free agency,
2:14
Speaker 3: so you should trade me now, and that is also
2:17
Speaker 3: has to do that pretty similar to I think what
2:20
Speaker 3: ends up coming down with Giannis where again, what ended
2:23
Speaker 3: up being different in the conversation yesterday, not much other
2:27
Speaker 3: than potentially the Bucks are striking out on all their
2:30
Speaker 3: offers that they're trying to make on a better player
2:33
Speaker 3: or Gyiannis did make it clear and obvious, Hey guys,
2:37
Speaker 3: October is not happening. I'm not resigning the Supermax. So
2:41
Speaker 3: now now you are on the clock. And that could
2:43
Speaker 3: be the only.
2:44
Speaker 1: Thing that ends up being different, could be could be
2:46
Speaker 1: eight seven seven seven nine four one ninety seven three. Nicolay, Look,
2:50
Speaker 1: I'm talking text line.
2:51
Speaker 3: Do you want to do some more of our monitoring
2:53
Speaker 3: season because we were we were firing this up on
2:55
Speaker 3: the football side, and this one just came down from
2:57
Speaker 3: Adam Schefter of ESPN, and it makes the decision by
3:02
Speaker 3: the Green Bay Packers maybe a little bit more understandable
3:05
Speaker 3: as to the feeling that there was a sense of
3:07
Speaker 3: urgency to do it rather quickly. Ravens requested an interview
3:11
Speaker 3: for Broncos defensive passing game coordinator and assistant head coach
3:13
Speaker 3: Jim Leonard to be there to defensive coordinator for source.
3:17
Speaker 3: Leonard played there in two thousand and eight, has already
3:19
Speaker 3: interviewed for the Chargers defensive coordinator job, expected to interview
3:23
Speaker 3: for the Buffalo DC job. Now this is the Ravens one, Drew.
3:26
Speaker 1: Maybe there was the.
3:29
Speaker 3: Statement or the declaration more from Leonard's camp of hey,
3:32
Speaker 3: we do appreciate the interest, but just so you know,
3:35
Speaker 3: you're one of many that's going to be in the
3:37
Speaker 3: interview line for Jim Leonard, because I think Packers fans
3:40
Speaker 3: just thought, well, day after his season ends, they hire
3:43
Speaker 3: him and it's all over. Chargers got their guy last night,
3:47
Speaker 3: Chris O'Leary from was that notre name at one point
3:50
Speaker 3: then at Western Michigan.
3:50
Speaker 2: Western Michigan. So that's yeah, the Harbaugh tie there, right.
3:54
Speaker 3: So he's still got two different gigs on the table.
3:57
Speaker 3: There's possible there's opening still around.
3:59
Speaker 2: Buffalo is gonna happen.
4:00
Speaker 3: But I wondered because I mean, he also played in
4:02
Speaker 3: Baltimore though as well a year, right, So, I mean
4:05
Speaker 3: there's there's reason to believe that he was going to
4:08
Speaker 3: get interviewed around the league, And maybe that also forced
4:11
Speaker 3: Lafleur's hand to say, I don't want to wait for
4:14
Speaker 3: an entire week where then we're clearly gonna end up
4:16
Speaker 3: losing out on Gannon.
4:18
Speaker 1: Yeah.
4:18
Speaker 3: I can see that, because I think that that was
4:20
Speaker 3: the question of like, well, why didn't you dis interview him, Well,
4:22
Speaker 3: you don't know necessarily when you were going to be
4:24
Speaker 3: able to, because clearly he's taken plenty of his sweet
4:26
Speaker 3: time in doing all of these these interviews that he's
4:29
Speaker 3: going to roll through with a with a number of
4:30
Speaker 3: different teams in the league.
4:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, does uh Does Jim Leonard have a relationship with
4:36
Speaker 1: Jesse minter Or.
4:38
Speaker 3: I mean there's a there's a big ten connection, I
4:40
Speaker 3: guess if you want to call it that, But I
4:42
Speaker 3: don't I don't necessarily know that they've worked together before
4:44
Speaker 3: in the past, but a similar scheme I would I
4:47
Speaker 3: would assume, or the fact that if he's gonna be
4:49
Speaker 3: able to call plays, I think that would be the
4:51
Speaker 3: most important thing for him.
4:54
Speaker 2: But you mentioned the Chargers don't want uh, mint, do
4:57
Speaker 2: we know has he given that up?
4:58
Speaker 1: I have not. I don't, but I think we've seen
5:00
Speaker 1: a lot of guys, especially the Packers guy that they
5:03
Speaker 1: just hired, they end up trying to go CEO route
5:05
Speaker 1: because they think that's the right way of going about it.
5:06
Speaker 1: In the head coach Roll, Yeah, I guess more than
5:09
Speaker 1: one way to do it. Eight seven, seven, seven, nine
5:11
Speaker 1: to four one ninety seven three. All right, So, uh,
5:15
Speaker 1: shifting gears a little bit. Badger's unbelievable game last night,
5:18
Speaker 1: big time. They scored seventeen points on eighteen percent shooting
5:22
Speaker 1: in the first half, they were down thirty five seventeen
5:24
Speaker 1: getting boot off the court, and then they rose up
5:27
Speaker 1: and put up a fifty burger.
5:28
Speaker 4: In the second half. Crazy, how different.
5:30
Speaker 1: Team Minnesota sixty seven sixty three. Well, Minnesota is a
5:34
Speaker 1: muddling middle of the pack, like you know, ten and eleven, team.
5:37
Speaker 4: Eighty second in the Ken Palm right now, which Badgers.
5:39
Speaker 1: Are fifteen and six, And coming off that USC game,
5:43
Speaker 1: it was it looked like a little hangover the first
5:44
Speaker 1: half and then the wake up call came and this
5:46
Speaker 1: is one of those ones like, yeah, you should have won.
5:48
Speaker 1: And the first half was atrocious, But man, you got
5:51
Speaker 1: some win in your sales.
5:52
Speaker 2: Coming back to win that.
5:53
Speaker 1: That's a character win that they come back and and
5:58
Speaker 1: seize that, you.
5:59
Speaker 2: Know, because would have been a deflating loss.
6:01
Speaker 4: Crisis averted absolutely, you know, yeah, yeah, you don't want
6:04
Speaker 4: to lose it to a team like that in terms
6:06
Speaker 4: of resume, in terms of rankings, in terms of the
6:08
Speaker 4: way the metrics pan out. It's as important to avoid
6:12
Speaker 4: losing those games as it is to win those And
6:14
Speaker 4: that would have been I don't want to say a
6:15
Speaker 4: disastrous loss, because obviously we're still in January and there's
6:18
Speaker 4: plenty of time, but that would have really hurt things
6:20
Speaker 4: in terms of, you know, going forward and trying to
6:22
Speaker 4: you know, build metrics in terms of net rating and
6:25
Speaker 4: all these things when that the committee looks at. So
6:28
Speaker 4: Badger's averted disaster a little bit last night. That was
6:30
Speaker 4: an important, important win to get.
6:32
Speaker 2: They have the same record as Purdue. I'm sure your
6:35
Speaker 2: wife's not happy with that right now.
6:37
Speaker 4: Yeah, but they're different profiles, I know, yeah, I mean.
6:40
Speaker 1: But the Badgers had one five in row. They come out,
6:42
Speaker 1: they have a flat game against USC. Losing Minnesota would
6:44
Speaker 1: have been a bad trend. And they averted that it
6:47
Speaker 1: was an incredible comeback. And if you were at the
6:49
Speaker 1: Coal Center and you're listening to us, now, kudos to you.
6:53
Speaker 1: That's a nice turnaround.
6:54
Speaker 2: Good work.
6:54
Speaker 1: But got me thinking about your favorite comebacks? Could the
6:58
Speaker 1: Bucks come back and make the playoffs this year? Is
7:01
Speaker 1: there one in the offering but your favorite all time
7:04
Speaker 1: comeback stories in sports? And we're coming up what was
7:09
Speaker 1: it the seventeen Super Bowl and when Matt Lafleur was
7:13
Speaker 1: in Atlanta and the Falcons peed down there.
7:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, that one's definitely not in my top candidacy as
7:19
Speaker 3: somebody that was on the Falcons in my first trip
7:22
Speaker 3: out to Las Vegas with a former radio colleague of ours,
7:26
Speaker 3: the franchise and a couple other folks who you know. Drew,
7:31
Speaker 3: Sometimes you're steadfast in your beliefs, and I was on
7:33
Speaker 3: the Patriots that week until I got until I ended
7:36
Speaker 3: up getting persuaded that it would be much more fun
7:39
Speaker 3: if all of us were betting on the same team
7:41
Speaker 3: and all of us were betting on the Falcons. So
7:43
Speaker 3: that one not necessarily but an incredible feeder. I'll tell
7:47
Speaker 3: you a couple of the least favorite comebacks. Drew the
7:49
Speaker 3: ones that ended up happening mostly on the Green Bay Packers.
7:51
Speaker 3: This year we saw a lot of comebacks stories.
7:54
Speaker 4: We got comeback on too much. This year we didn't
7:56
Speaker 4: have those moments. But now in terms of there's a
8:00
Speaker 4: lot you think.
8:01
Speaker 1: Of, you know, but likely and locally and national locally
8:05
Speaker 1: like locally season comebacks to run the table Packers were
8:09
Speaker 1: a season comeback.
8:10
Speaker 4: I mean that was one of the great ones. You
8:11
Speaker 4: remember that that they were, you know, really down the
8:13
Speaker 4: dumps at four and six, had to had the declaration
8:16
Speaker 4: from Aaron and he fulfilled it and they almost went
8:19
Speaker 4: all the way with that one. So that was a
8:21
Speaker 4: great one.
8:21
Speaker 2: That was a great one.
8:22
Speaker 1: Yeah uh, you know the Brewers being down and coming
8:27
Speaker 1: back against the then California Angels, right, another good one.
8:32
Speaker 4: So many good ones.
8:33
Speaker 2: With the Bucks.
8:34
Speaker 1: Title run had a couple of comebacks down two oho
8:36
Speaker 1: in series like you win series when you're down two.
8:39
Speaker 3: Oh yeah yeah, the two to oh law series to
8:42
Speaker 3: the Nets would be the one that I would I
8:43
Speaker 3: would put into because you're down two to oh. You're
8:46
Speaker 3: also down in game three and Game three was about
8:49
Speaker 3: as ugly of a game as you can possibly have.
8:51
Speaker 3: Only one that a Buck fan would love. Yeah, and
8:53
Speaker 3: what eighty six eighty three or eighty six eighty four. Uh,
8:57
Speaker 3: and you then still are into games set, and I
9:00
Speaker 3: don't know anybody felt confident. I don't know anybody felt
9:03
Speaker 3: good about how that was going to roll through.
9:05
Speaker 1: Uh.
9:06
Speaker 3: But once you ended up coming back in that fourth
9:08
Speaker 3: quarter and being able to hold off in the final minutes, Yeah,
9:10
Speaker 3: that series would be the top.
9:12
Speaker 4: And being able to come back in the finals, I
9:14
Speaker 4: mean down too old of the Suns, you know, finding
9:16
Speaker 4: a way to to to take that thing back and
9:18
Speaker 4: figure out a way to win it. I mean, it's
9:20
Speaker 4: it's an all time story. You know, it's a when
9:22
Speaker 4: we've been talking about Giannis all day. The moments that
9:24
Speaker 4: will it'll hurt because of the great moments we had,
9:27
Speaker 4: and that was the greatest of all. I mean, that
9:29
Speaker 4: was the the one fulfilled championship we've had in all
9:32
Speaker 4: the playoff heartbreak we've had around here in the last
9:34
Speaker 4: you know, twenty years.
9:35
Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh, I was I was present for one of
9:38
Speaker 1: the great comebacks of all time, the four Red Sox
9:41
Speaker 1: getting off the matt to the Yankees and the Alcs
9:44
Speaker 1: and winning that one.
9:46
Speaker 4: That was pretty well, that was one of the well
9:48
Speaker 4: known ones. Ever, I mean, why did Boston get all
9:50
Speaker 4: these Yeah, twenty three, Boston get to do all this,
9:54
Speaker 4: you know, supposedly our turn. That's like Boston hasn't enough championships,
9:59
Speaker 4: all right, so they get a or comebacks championships.
10:01
Speaker 1: They get all these moments in the Cavs being down three,
10:03
Speaker 1: Well there you go the NBA And luckily Draymond Green
10:06
Speaker 1: assisted in that one, and that was one of the
10:08
Speaker 1: sweeter ones for me, as the bigger Lebron guy in
10:13
Speaker 1: at the time, to be able to watch him fully,
10:15
Speaker 1: be able to do that and validate maybe the best
10:18
Speaker 1: comeback in NBA Finals history down three to one against
10:22
Speaker 1: the team that has won the most games in the
10:24
Speaker 1: NBA history in the regular season. I think a couple
10:26
Speaker 1: of just like individual games Drew and you mentioned the
10:29
Speaker 1: Brewers coming back, like coming off the matt this year
10:32
Speaker 1: and coming back and winning the division, coming back in
10:34
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen down five and a half games in September
10:38
Speaker 1: to be able to run that and win the game
10:39
Speaker 1: in one sixty three. But this year, individually, I thought
10:42
Speaker 1: the game that they ended up winning and coming back,
10:46
Speaker 1: who were they down like eight three or seven to
10:49
Speaker 1: three against the Cardinals in the eighth inning, six to
10:53
Speaker 1: three against the Cardinals on the day that they end
10:56
Speaker 1: up clinching, they clinched the division earlier in the day,
10:59
Speaker 1: or a fall playoff spot earlier in the day. They're
11:02
Speaker 1: losing on a Saturday night against the Cardinals. It's a
11:05
Speaker 1: sold out crowd, big Fox game, and the Brewers score
11:09
Speaker 1: two in the eighth, three in the ninth to force
11:12
Speaker 1: an extra inning, give up a run in the extra inning,
11:15
Speaker 1: and then score two in the ninth to win it
11:17
Speaker 1: nine to eight. Like those kind of comebacks where you
11:19
Speaker 1: also then believe all this work for nothing.
11:24
Speaker 4: You get to.
11:25
Speaker 1: Overtime and then the first few baskets on the other
11:28
Speaker 1: side go that way, or the first run goes on
11:30
Speaker 1: to the other side, and you get a little bit
11:32
Speaker 1: of a deflated feeling. Those, to me are the best
11:35
Speaker 1: comebacks to be able to savor. How about uh the
11:38
Speaker 1: Reggie Miller comeback. I'm gonna love that one in.
11:40
Speaker 4: Game comebacks when he pushed off on Greig Gante, I.
11:42
Speaker 1: Mean Garden Game one, Eastern Conference was down six eighteen
11:47
Speaker 1: point nine seconds left and Reggie Miller goes off and
11:51
Speaker 1: scores eight points to win the game.
11:53
Speaker 4: That's an all time moment.
11:56
Speaker 1: And then free throws, he's the inbound. He did push off,
12:01
Speaker 1: but it was a great moment in terms of for
12:03
Speaker 1: the elder millennials. That's one of the epic non Jordan
12:07
Speaker 1: NBA moments you remember, like that was because he wasn't
12:10
Speaker 1: a It was ninety five, right or ninety four was
12:12
Speaker 1: ninety five, so Jordan wasn't there yet. So if you
12:15
Speaker 1: think about the nineties NBA when Jordan wasn't there, that
12:17
Speaker 1: was the epic moment. And listen it was they made
12:20
Speaker 1: it a thirty for thirty out of it. It was
12:21
Speaker 1: one of the all time moments.
12:22
Speaker 4: And no one's got more run out of one game
12:24
Speaker 4: in one moment than Reggie Miller in that one.
12:26
Speaker 2: No one hauntings.
12:28
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that whole thing with with that. And but
12:31
Speaker 4: the funny that was game five right or game one?
12:33
Speaker 1: Right?
12:34
Speaker 4: It was game one, Game one, you know, so you
12:36
Speaker 4: know they come back and they don't win. Did they
12:39
Speaker 4: win that series? I can't remember, but he gets a
12:41
Speaker 4: lot of run for one game. A lot of people
12:44
Speaker 4: don't remember this true because I think we ended up
12:47
Speaker 4: losing the series. But in eighty two, when the Brewers
12:50
Speaker 4: were down big in Game four, right and came back
12:52
Speaker 4: in the World Series to win a county stadium. That
12:54
Speaker 4: was an epic comeback in the seventh inning. So that
12:57
Speaker 4: was one that you know, doing some research on this
12:59
Speaker 4: and really thinking about it. Game four the eighty two
13:02
Speaker 4: World Series, Brews had a great in game comeback to
13:05
Speaker 4: kind of save the series. At the time, the risking
13:07
Speaker 4: going down three to one, they're down five, five to one,
13:11
Speaker 4: and had the six run seventh to kind of save
13:14
Speaker 4: the series. That was big at the times. That was
13:16
Speaker 4: a big comeback. Didn't go on to win the World Series,
13:18
Speaker 4: so I think people forget about that, but yeah, is
13:21
Speaker 4: a fun one to look back on if you're looking
13:22
Speaker 4: for a great Wisconsin comeback.
13:24
Speaker 3: I also think the comeback of you know, Patriots Super
13:27
Speaker 3: Bowl of twenty eight three is the one that most
13:29
Speaker 3: people will think about. But the rematch of the one
13:31
Speaker 3: that we're gonna watch here coming up this weekend of
13:34
Speaker 3: the Patriots and Seahawks in Super Bowl forty nine. You
13:38
Speaker 3: think of the Malcolm Butler sequence right at the end,
13:41
Speaker 3: but going into the fourth quarter, the Seahawks are up ten,
13:44
Speaker 3: are leading the game and dominating it at that point.
13:48
Speaker 3: Doug Baldwin scores. With the final couple of minutes in
13:51
Speaker 3: the third quarter, and they're up two touchdowns pardon me
13:53
Speaker 3: two scores at twenty four to fourteen. Brady leads a
13:56
Speaker 3: nine play touchdown drive and a ten play touchdown drive
13:59
Speaker 3: to take the lead, and then all of a sudden,
14:01
Speaker 3: it looks like you're gonna get ted, victory snatched away
14:03
Speaker 3: from you when math or when Curse catches the ball
14:06
Speaker 3: on his backside, and another great comeback that again the
14:11
Speaker 3: one in fifty one, rightfully so is the one that
14:14
Speaker 3: gets remembered about. But he's done this a couple of
14:16
Speaker 3: times in Super Bowls. That was one of the better
14:18
Speaker 3: games ever played. And I'm surprised, Drew, I haven't seen
14:21
Speaker 3: it run yet on NFL network. Good point, I haven't
14:25
Speaker 3: seen it run on NFL network yet. Now I haven't
14:26
Speaker 3: been watching every single waking moment, but I got to
14:29
Speaker 3: assume Super Bowl forty nine gets played about fifteen hundred
14:32
Speaker 3: times this week.
14:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm guessing.
14:34
Speaker 4: Ninety two wildcards famous obviously, the Oilers blowing that thirty
14:37
Speaker 4: five to three lead, the Bills coming back that is
14:39
Speaker 4: called the comeback, that's the all time one. But you know,
14:41
Speaker 4: how about that Vikings game when they were down thirty
14:44
Speaker 4: three nothing and a half. I'm forgetting who was it
14:46
Speaker 4: with Bill, I'm forgetting, guys now who they were playing,
14:48
Speaker 4: but they were down thirds. I think it was the Colts. Yeah,
14:52
Speaker 4: thirty three nothing and they came back. You know, it
14:54
Speaker 4: couldn't be Vikings and Colts.
14:55
Speaker 1: Yeah.
14:55
Speaker 4: So there's an all time one right there. So by
14:58
Speaker 4: the first one I remember the mo from my crucible
15:01
Speaker 4: sports fandom when I was eight years old, is when
15:04
Speaker 4: the Bulls won their second title in ninety two. They
15:07
Speaker 4: had a big fourth quarter comeback against the Blazers to
15:09
Speaker 4: clinch it in Game six, and that's what I remember
15:12
Speaker 4: at all time to being like one of the you know,
15:15
Speaker 4: epic run comebacks to win a title.
15:18
Speaker 1: In the career comeback. How about Tiger Woods coming back
15:22
Speaker 1: win in another major. Yeah, that's a good one.
15:25
Speaker 3: I was trying to think of, like the full career
15:27
Speaker 3: comebacks and the the comeback arcs that So that was the.
15:30
Speaker 1: Nineteen Masters when he came back and when that what
15:32
Speaker 1: about they come back and Armuna like this because you're
15:35
Speaker 1: of a certain vintage come back by Marv Albert.
15:39
Speaker 4: Yeah, it came came all the way back from the.
15:41
Speaker 2: Come all the way back from the second fighting. What
15:45
Speaker 2: did you do to her?
15:45
Speaker 4: I don't know, just but he was the voice of
15:48
Speaker 4: the NBA.
15:51
Speaker 2: Did he fight a transvestite or was he dressed.
15:53
Speaker 1: As a woman? I don't remember yet. I can't remember.
15:57
Speaker 1: I can't remember what exactly. I know he bet somebody
16:00
Speaker 1: and he was in the fight shoal. Yeah, we don't
16:05
Speaker 1: use that termany right anymore, not as much anymore for
16:09
Speaker 1: Marv alve or not that fun.
16:10
Speaker 3: Now that opens up a whole new world of these
16:12
Speaker 3: comeback stories.
16:13
Speaker 1: God, what about the comeback of Snoop?
16:15
Speaker 3: I mean not Granted, it's not like he was ever
16:17
Speaker 3: as down down bad as possible, true, but I didn't
16:20
Speaker 3: think that there would be an ascension to America's guest,
16:24
Speaker 3: America's grandpa.
16:25
Speaker 1: Now, like you get America's grandpa, the coolest grandpa in
16:28

21:15
Speaker 4: Well, remember those cookies.
21:16
Speaker 1: Listen, there's rays you can try to health up jelly.
21:20
Speaker 1: We were just talking about the Reggie Miller game when
21:22
Speaker 1: he shot down the Knicks.
21:23
Speaker 5: Oh my god, we want to talk about a grade
21:24
Speaker 5: thirty for thirty.
21:25
Speaker 4: That is awesome.
21:26
Speaker 5: That was an awesomessike.
21:28
Speaker 1: I think I was.
21:29
Speaker 2: Covering the kind of the start of that.
21:31
Speaker 1: The ninety four my boss sent me to the ninety
21:33
Speaker 1: four Stanley Cup, which was the Rangers and Canucks.
21:36
Speaker 4: Yeah, all time series.
21:37
Speaker 2: It was the freaking Flyer Miles series of all time.
21:39
Speaker 1: Yeah. So I was going back and forth between those
21:42
Speaker 1: two cities and I had off night in New York
21:44
Speaker 1: and my boss is like, you know, what are you doing.
21:46
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm just like writing an off day story
21:48
Speaker 1: on this series. He's like, I got your credential. You're
21:50
Speaker 1: covering uh Eastern Conference Finals. That was Pacers Knicks, and
21:53
Speaker 1: it was a game that the Knicks won that series,
21:55
Speaker 1: but it was two to two and Game five was
21:57
Speaker 1: at the Garden and the Knicks were up like twelve,
22:00
Speaker 1: and Reggie Miller took over and they scored like thirty
22:02
Speaker 1: five points in the fourth quarter and Reggie just gunned
22:05
Speaker 1: him down. And that's like the beginning of what it
22:08
Speaker 1: was the predicate for what happened the next year with
22:10
Speaker 1: the comeback. Right, So was that was that? Was that?
22:13
Speaker 5: That was the OJ drum at the same time, right
22:15
Speaker 5: the same time, Yeah, that that was going on.
22:16
Speaker 1: Ye, what was it? What was the.
22:18
Speaker 5: Documentary in that June seventeenth, Is that what the documentary?
22:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, June seventeen, nineteen ninety four, because I was two
22:25
Speaker 3: months away from being born, that was. And my wife was,
22:28
Speaker 3: or my mom I should say, was the wife of
22:30
Speaker 3: my dad at the time, sitting in a hospital room
22:32
Speaker 3: waiting for him to get bandaged up after he lost
22:34
Speaker 3: a finger in a work act.
22:35
Speaker 4: Oh, it was.
22:38
Speaker 1: Nicks were in the finals that year, but I did.
22:39
Speaker 1: I was at the Eastern Conference finals, so that was earlier,
22:43
Speaker 1: precursor to it, Yeah, precursor to it.
22:45
Speaker 2: It was Spike and Reggie and it was the game
22:47
Speaker 2: they won.
22:47
Speaker 1: Now the next I think the Pacers went up three
22:50
Speaker 1: to two in that game and ended up losing the
22:51
Speaker 1: next two games. Yeah.
22:52
Speaker 2: Right, So so.
22:53
Speaker 1: The next went on and the Knicks were playing in
22:55
Speaker 1: the finals during the OJ thing.
22:56
Speaker 5: That was Jordan was that Jordan's retirement year? Was that
22:58
Speaker 5: the year he came back late and played and more
23:00
Speaker 5: number forty five I don't remember.
23:01
Speaker 4: Already came back and they lost to the Magic. They
23:07
Speaker 4: lost the Magic in the playoffs because I remember Horace
23:09
Speaker 4: Grant was carried off his shoulders with the Magic like
23:12
Speaker 4: he triumphed over them. But then they came back, and then.
23:15
Speaker 1: How did you handle that? Our first fan, Armen.
23:18
Speaker 4: It was like great, It was like great that Jordan's back.
23:22
Speaker 4: But nobody thought this is the year yet because he
23:24
Speaker 4: just came back and it was all this stuff. And
23:26
Speaker 4: then they loaded up with Rodman and then you're like
23:28
Speaker 4: Rodman and then they dominated everybody because you.
23:30
Speaker 3: Bring up the two thousand the Red Sox comeback. That
23:34
Speaker 3: was right in the wheelhouse of my front running days
23:36
Speaker 3: as a sports fan. You know, nine ten years old,
23:39
Speaker 3: Brewers are warm cheeks like it is a tough scene
23:43
Speaker 3: going to Miller Park every single year. So I became
23:46
Speaker 3: a decent closet Yankee fan at because of how much
23:50
Speaker 3: I loved Derek Jeter.
23:51
Speaker 1: At the time. Wow, was that a tough one, Dolph.
23:54
Speaker 1: That was.
23:54
Speaker 3: That was the moment where my folks were able to
23:57
Speaker 3: explain to me this, you don't always win.
23:58
Speaker 5: We were in New Orleans celeb ding my wife's birthday.
24:00
Speaker 5: We did that like every several years, and and that
24:03
Speaker 5: was the night that the Yankees blew the game four
24:06
Speaker 5: and they lost, and I'm sitting at the bar with
24:08
Speaker 5: a ton of Red Sox fans going, okay, good good
24:10
Speaker 5: for you. You got one. Fortunately I did not go
24:13
Speaker 5: back to that club the next several nights.
24:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go.
24:19
Speaker 2: So Dolph, what's you read on this whole Yiannis thing.
24:22
Speaker 5: I'm getting tired of hearing about it. It's just, you know,
24:25
Speaker 5: God bless shams, that's what he does. But this is
24:27
Speaker 5: going almost too what at least a year, if not
24:29
Speaker 5: too But this one seems to have some teeth to it,
24:33
Speaker 5: doesn't it.
24:33
Speaker 1: We're uh, yeah, we're coming around to that idea. I
24:35
Speaker 1: still think it's gonna happen in the summer. I don't
24:37
Speaker 1: think it's gonna happen by next week. Just to see it,
24:39
Speaker 1: you know. And what are you gonna get in return?
24:41
Speaker 1: You're not gonna get Yannis, that's for sure. But the
24:43
Speaker 1: new are you gonna get? Guys? We know?
24:45
Speaker 5: And then a ton of draft picks.
24:46
Speaker 1: Like Armand said when they traded a Kareem, they got
24:48
Speaker 1: two guys who ended up with their jerseys and the
24:50
Speaker 1: rafters that's pretty damn planners and junior Bridgemen, and they
24:53
Speaker 1: helped sustain the French right. David Myers and Elmore Smith
24:56
Speaker 1: also in that deal.
24:58
Speaker 4: But you still never feel like it was equal when
24:59
Speaker 4: you when it as a player of that stature, greatness
25:02
Speaker 4: and transcendence, You'll never feel you get equal value because
25:05
Speaker 4: you can't.
25:05
Speaker 5: And with Kareem he was a rising star. I mean,
25:09
Speaker 5: what was he still in his mid upper twenties? What
25:12
Speaker 5: was twenties?
25:13
Speaker 1: He played all years in college, right, he played all
25:15
Speaker 1: these years in college, already won three MVPs in the league,
25:17
Speaker 1: Am I right, Drew? I think obviously Bucks won one title,
25:20
Speaker 1: went to another one. He almost wanted for us with
25:22
Speaker 1: the hook shot in Boston, but they lost in Game
25:24
Speaker 1: seven in Milwaukee.
25:25
Speaker 4: So look, it is what it is. I said, It's
25:28
Speaker 4: like life insurance, like you have it there to prepare you,
25:31
Speaker 4: to help to protect you and prepare you for the
25:33
Speaker 4: next step. But it never is going to replace what
25:35
Speaker 4: you lost, eat and what died, you know.
25:37
Speaker 5: But we're at the point now, you know, Giannist is
25:38
Speaker 5: thirty one. I'm am I ready to let him go. No,
25:41
Speaker 5: but I would. I would accept it if it happened,
25:44
Speaker 5: I will accept it.
25:45
Speaker 3: I am not ready for Shams to be able to
25:47
Speaker 3: enjoy the v be right. So that's why I do
25:50
Speaker 3: want it to happen in the summer, because again he
25:52
Speaker 3: did cover his bases right, He's like that he might
25:54
Speaker 3: be ready for a new home at the February fifth deadline,
25:57
Speaker 3: you know, or in the summer next year, or a
26:00
Speaker 3: free agency. So at some point he is gonna be right.
26:03
Speaker 3: But Drew, I'm not ready for him to be right
26:06
Speaker 3: just yet. That's the other reason why I prefer it
26:09
Speaker 3: to happen in July and give us something to talk
26:11
Speaker 3: about in July, because we need, I appreciate and would
26:15
Speaker 3: like to have more opportunity to fully look at all
26:18
Speaker 3: the opportunity.
26:18
Speaker 5: We're gonna have a double digit lead by that, That's
26:20
Speaker 5: what I'm saying.
26:21
Speaker 4: That's not you know what, right, Yeah, and then we're
26:23
Speaker 4: gonna be so dominant. They got to talk about.
26:26
Speaker 5: Reech McGuire yesterday and his nine homers coming over from
26:28
Speaker 5: the Cups.
26:29
Speaker 1: I'm not happy about it. Not happy.
26:31
Speaker 3: He didn't want that. He didn't want that catcher from
26:34
Speaker 3: the Cups. He wanted Carson Kelly from the Cups. He
26:37
Speaker 3: saw this Reese McGuire guy, and he's like, I have
26:39
Speaker 3: his baseball card and he's.
26:39
Speaker 5: No good journeyman takes.
26:43
Speaker 2: He's like, listen, Carson Kelly, I got a blue catcher's mask.
26:45
Speaker 1: Just like him. Why is he not on the bridge.
26:47
Speaker 4: Also, like, if you're out there and you're three years
26:49
Speaker 4: old and you're hoping for a career of sports media,
26:51
Speaker 4: you got no shot because Carson Schmid is miles ahead
26:53
Speaker 4: of you. Now, all right, I'm just saying he knows
26:55
Speaker 4: every roster, he knows every score, goal in the weekend.
26:58
Speaker 5: Does he have a home studio yet?
26:59
Speaker 4: This it's gonna be a star. I'm just letting you know, Billy.
27:03
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, you might become Griffy senior in
27:06
Speaker 4: that regard, not Junior. When he becomes the star.
27:09
Speaker 1: His his new thing is he just asks Siri for
27:12
Speaker 1: all the game scores. He's getting every score in the SRI.
27:15
Speaker 1: What basketball games are today? You know, she reads off
27:17
Speaker 1: the games or whatever. And then he goes, hey, Siri,
27:20
Speaker 1: who do you think is gonna win the Nixon Warriors? Like, buddy,
27:23
Speaker 1: she doesn't give you the spread. I appreciate that you
27:25
Speaker 1: try to find it. So next thing you know is
27:29
Speaker 1: Junior handicap versus right, anybody scores. He goes, I bet
27:33
Speaker 1: on him to score. I'm like, you cannot say that
27:36
Speaker 1: when you go to preschool next.
27:37
Speaker 5: You gotta start getting him on the show years ago
27:39
Speaker 5: when I when my daughter Kylie was born and was
27:42
Speaker 5: probably three or four years old, she did our Monday
27:44
Speaker 5: Night Picks four years old. It was by far the
27:47
Speaker 5: most popular thing we did on the show to this day.
27:49
Speaker 5: When I run in deaf, I'm one of six listeners.
27:51
Speaker 5: They say, I remember when your daughter did the Monday
27:53
Speaker 5: Night Picks, and now she's thirty.
27:55
Speaker 1: I think he might have to handicaps and picks.
27:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, he might have to. Man, we started a whole
28:01
Speaker 2: cottage industry on that front.
28:03
Speaker 5: Have you tried to talk him into the goodness of
28:05
Speaker 5: being an offensive lineman because every little kid wants to
28:07
Speaker 5: be a quarterback of running back, a wide receiver. Have
28:10
Speaker 5: you already start putting in the work. Well, Dolph, I'm
28:12
Speaker 5: trying now.
28:13
Speaker 3: The problem is it's counterintuitive because he then takes that
28:17
Speaker 3: aggression where I'm like, here, you get two hands into
28:20
Speaker 3: the chest, right thumbs.
28:22
Speaker 1: Up into the chest. Then he walks up over to
28:24
Speaker 1: Benson nine month old, and he's like, all right, chest.
28:28
Speaker 1: Then we gotta go upstairs for time out because we
28:30
Speaker 1: can't do it that.
28:31
Speaker 3: So if you're working it out, we right now have
28:34
Speaker 3: a big, big, old tackling dummy. That's got a hole
28:36
Speaker 3: through it that was probably for a quarterback to throw
28:38
Speaker 3: the football through, and that's become a blocking dummying on
28:43
Speaker 3: our kickset.
28:43
Speaker 4: He just just know the more he understands old line plays,
28:46
Speaker 4: he grows older, he's gonna be frustrated. And he was
28:48
Speaker 4: supposed to pull the guard is supposed to pole.
28:51
Speaker 5: Benson exactly told me the other day how he'll come
28:57
Speaker 5: up and he'll like hold his nose when he's sleeping.
29:02
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I love you.
29:05
Speaker 3: His new one is like after he does something bad,
29:07
Speaker 3: he just goes you be happy, try.
29:12
Speaker 1: And that's great logic. You can be happy, you be happy?
29:18
Speaker 1: Are you?
29:19
Speaker 2: Are you encouraging him to be a switch hitter because
29:20
Speaker 2: I see him.
29:21
Speaker 1: You know he's gonna be a big kid, switch hitting
29:23
Speaker 1: catcher cat I always make the team as a catch.
29:26
Speaker 1: Hodle here a switch hitting catcher. You got a chance
29:27
Speaker 1: to play beyond high school?
29:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh well, he doesn't necessarily always have the hands
29:32
Speaker 3: in the right place right, you know, the right hand
29:34
Speaker 3: will be on the bottom stand on there. So I
29:36
Speaker 3: think he's naturally a switch hitter. I just have to
29:39
Speaker 3: force him to go over on to the other side.
29:40
Speaker 5: I got to work on that we talked about the
29:42
Speaker 5: other day. Tom Amanski, that VHS I think still has
29:45
Speaker 5: his copy.
29:46
Speaker 4: I wish you guys.
29:47
Speaker 3: Are gonna be you guys are gonna laugh after that.
29:49
Speaker 3: I did look him up on YouTube. Yeah, they're on there.
29:52
Speaker 1: Oh, oh gosh, he was dialed in but the National Champions,
29:56
Speaker 1: but the graphics aren't as good for him to appreciate
29:58
Speaker 1: the back to back to national titles.
30:01
Speaker 3: So he's still looking for maybe a little bit more
30:04
Speaker 3: modern version. If we could get Bluey doing them.
30:07
Speaker 4: Oh that's pretty good.
30:08
Speaker 3: Now, if we possibly get Mickey Mouse Clubhouse doing some
30:10
Speaker 3: baseball tutorials, we'd never turn that off.
30:13
Speaker 1: Now, that'd be locked into the house, no doubt about it.
30:16
Speaker 1: What about the uh, you know, if the find cartoons
30:18
Speaker 1: of them playing baseball, The Bugs Bunny Baseball card Store
30:22
Speaker 1: pretty good.
30:22
Speaker 3: I thought space Sham would be a hit. Not not
30:24
Speaker 3: much of a fan, Not much of a fan.
30:27
Speaker 5: A bunch of my friends and I went when the
30:28
Speaker 5: Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra did Warner Brothers cartoons where they play.
30:32
Speaker 5: It was freaking awesome. And I don't remember if they
30:35
Speaker 5: did the the Bugs Bunny first base Bucks, Bunny Second
30:38
Speaker 5: base Box, Bundy where he had to play the whole
30:39
Speaker 5: team and guys were going up there with tree trunks. Yeah,
30:44
Speaker 5: and bugs played the catcher too, and he'd catch the
30:47
Speaker 5: ball and it would slam all way back to the backstop. Again.
30:49
Speaker 5: That's the old Pepper Kitten legendary baseball cartoon. But to
30:54
Speaker 5: hear the symphony orchestra do this do the scores of
30:57
Speaker 5: these Warner Brothers cartoon.
30:58
Speaker 4: Was it was amazing, the awesome.
31:02
Speaker 1: Market.
31:03
Speaker 2: The symphony should do the music of NFL films.
31:05
Speaker 5: That would be awesome. I'd be the first one to
31:07
Speaker 5: sign up. How good would that be? Oh man, there
31:10
Speaker 5: it is? The wind is a pirate?
31:14
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, sorry, all due respect to Trans Siberian Orchestra.
31:17
Speaker 1: I'm going to go listen to this.
31:18
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely absolutely all right. So we've been joking.
31:21
Speaker 1: We were joking about Sham's before and this NFL films
31:24
Speaker 1: music makes me think about it. Here's a question, this
31:28
Speaker 1: has been It weighs on my mind once in a while.
31:32
Speaker 4: What sport?
31:32
Speaker 2: What's the best covered sport?
31:35
Speaker 1: All the beat guys across, like, you know, what's the
31:37
Speaker 1: best covered sport?
31:39
Speaker 2: The basketball?
31:39
Speaker 1: We were joking about how because the basketball the best
31:42
Speaker 1: time to be a basketball fan is kind of the
31:43
Speaker 1: off season in some ways of the NBA off season
31:45
Speaker 1: is more exciting than the regular season.
31:48
Speaker 2: We're all just waiting for the playoffs.
31:49
Speaker 1: What is the best covered sport you feel like you
31:52
Speaker 1: get the best information? Is it the NFL because of
31:54
Speaker 1: the daily churn? Is it Baseball because of the daily
31:57
Speaker 1: access and that you know so much about guys? What
31:59
Speaker 1: is it?
32:00
Speaker 5: It's probably NBA or NFL, But just being a casual watcher,
32:04
Speaker 5: I'm probably more of a listener. I think it's NFL.
32:06
Speaker 5: I mean, every single day, three sixty five, right, there's
32:09
Speaker 5: something going on, not only on the national level, but
32:12
Speaker 5: you guys and everybody else that talks sports. You always
32:14
Speaker 5: hear packers talk.
32:16
Speaker 1: NFL is definitely the most discussed.
32:18
Speaker 3: The coverage part of it is tough because I think
32:21
Speaker 3: what one is the best two cover? I think you
32:23
Speaker 3: would admit baseball definitely not gone all summer.
32:27
Speaker 1: But you get to enjoy if you don't want, if
32:29
Speaker 1: you don't have a life, right like, you get to
32:31
Speaker 1: enjoy an incredible sight.
32:34
Speaker 5: Yeah, it becomes two hundred days a year between preseason
32:37
Speaker 5: and playoffs and regular season.
32:39
Speaker 3: And all through the summer, and you're gone for sixty
32:41
Speaker 3: eight weeks longer than.
32:44
Speaker 2: That, is true, longer than.
32:47
Speaker 1: The NASCAR season.
32:49
Speaker 4: But does anyone really dig up the dirt like in
32:51
Speaker 4: the SEC for college football.
32:53
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say the part of it.
32:56
Speaker 3: And I've become a little bit more accustomed to it
32:58
Speaker 3: because I got way too sucked into the message.
33:00
Speaker 4: Board and the and the message boards and the different
33:03
Speaker 4: posters in.
33:03
Speaker 3: The pot know a lot about college football if you
33:06
Speaker 3: go and find it. They they dig up everything in
33:09
Speaker 3: anything there is to talk about college football.
33:11
Speaker 1: You know where they're flying.
33:12
Speaker 4: That's true.
33:13
Speaker 1: I've tuned into.
33:14
Speaker 5: Paul fine bomb though in the middle of June. It's
33:16
Speaker 5: pretty damn bleak. It's problem.
33:21
Speaker 1: It's the spring games over right. It's like, what do
33:23
Speaker 1: we got, Paul?
33:24
Speaker 4: Why do we not have none? Back?
33:26
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out exactly now we're gonna stop
33:27
Speaker 1: his running.
33:28
Speaker 4: The boat tack.
33:29
Speaker 1: I'm down here.
33:29
Speaker 2: War damn Eagle, Yeah, war damn Eagle.
33:32
Speaker 4: I went not poison that tree.
33:33
Speaker 1: It's interesting though, because, uh, I was just think of
33:36
Speaker 1: all the things you've seen in technology and stuff, and
33:38
Speaker 1: like the carts and just the stuff they used to
33:40
Speaker 1: have to do and play an actual album like it
33:43
Speaker 1: was work.
33:43
Speaker 5: First thing I ever learned how to do it broadcast
33:45
Speaker 5: school was how to queue up a record, up a
33:47
Speaker 5: record the post, Yeah, and then you get to burn
33:50
Speaker 5: and then oh it was it was a whole thing.
33:52
Speaker 2: I'm old enough.
33:53
Speaker 1: Like when I first started, if the Bucks, like back
33:56
Speaker 1: in the day, if the Bucks played on Tuesday, you'd
33:58
Speaker 1: get the game story, might get a preview on Tuesday feature,
34:00
Speaker 1: you get the game story Wednesday, and if they didn't
34:02
Speaker 1: play again until Friday, there was nothing until like Friday,
34:05
Speaker 1: there was a preview story and then there was a
34:06
Speaker 1: game story. Like you go two or three days without
34:08
Speaker 1: anything on your team. You live for the paper, and
34:11
Speaker 1: now aday way to get the paper. But nowadays, like then,
34:14
Speaker 1: it became all right, well do a story on the
34:16
Speaker 1: off day, and then it's like do a notebook attached
34:18
Speaker 1: to the And then it tastasized and it was kind
34:20
Speaker 1: of like on the cusp of what we see now
34:22
Speaker 1: where it's twenty four to seven, three sixty five, we
34:24
Speaker 1: got friends of ours said, daily podcasts on the Packers,
34:28
Speaker 1: fake time.
34:29
Speaker 5: Yes, it's it's incredible how sports in general has grown.
34:33
Speaker 5: I mean, what when was the first sports talk radio station?
34:36
Speaker 5: Was it thirty years.
34:37
Speaker 1: Maybe yeah, thirty five years ago. Maybe yep, thirty five
34:39
Speaker 1: years I still remember Rich Eisen.
34:41
Speaker 3: He tells the story all the time when he left
34:42
Speaker 3: ESPN and he said he was gonna go work at
34:44
Speaker 3: NFL networks, Like, what.
34:46
Speaker 1: Are you gonna do in May? Talk about a safety Yeah? Yeah,
34:50
Speaker 1: And actually people are gonna care who's going about safety
34:52
Speaker 1: in the NFC East too much? It's nuts, lily.
34:55
Speaker 4: The people don't buy in sports are the only thing
34:57
Speaker 4: save in television.
34:57
Speaker 2: Shovel and coal into the furnace. Oh my old time.
35:01
Speaker 1: One of my mentors, Tom Flair, is like, we really
35:03
Speaker 1: screwed ourselves when we used to just have a couple
35:04
Speaker 1: of bullet points at the bottom of the game story
35:06
Speaker 1: and we broke those out into a separate story.
35:09
Speaker 2: That's when we screwed ourselves.
35:10
Speaker 1: That's when we created the work in the industry, Like
35:12
Speaker 1: make that a separate story.
35:14
Speaker 2: And I have the two stories to day instead of that.
35:16
Speaker 5: Social media so much pressure.
35:19
Speaker 2: It's a full time gig.
35:20
Speaker 1: It is absolutely Dolph is here and it reminds me
35:23
Speaker 1: in the next hour the program, we're going to give
35:24

Speaker 1: So we got two more pair of tickets to give
35:46
Speaker 1: away to the show September, and I got six.
35:48
Speaker 5: I would have missed that one, by the way. I
35:51
Speaker 5: remember his first hit was all my friends say, I
35:54
Speaker 5: remember that, and he wrote the number one for Billy
35:56
Speaker 5: Carrington good directions. That was a Luke Bryan, but he
35:58
Speaker 5: didn't record.
35:59
Speaker 1: It, didn't record, okay, and I didn't even know that.

36:36
Speaker 4: you know.
36:36
Speaker 3: So I'm glad you mentioned that at I Serve because
36:38
Speaker 3: I got introduced to that gear.
36:41
Speaker 1: I went, uh maybe to a.
36:42
Speaker 3: Game and that was probably last year with with the
36:45
Speaker 3: wife where we're looking through the store before the game.
36:48
Speaker 1: Gotta find the kids something, right if you're gonna come
36:50
Speaker 1: home with something. All of a sudden, this guy's looked
36:54
Speaker 1: really familiar standing over by this Lulu Lemones showing off
36:58
Speaker 1: like selling the merchandise. Yeah, dang, okay.
37:02
Speaker 3: That's got to be somebody that I that that has
37:04

Speaker 1: telling his friends who he is.
37:14
Speaker 3: I mean, he's bringing some of the people to the game, right,
37:16
Speaker 3: so he's clearly getting them outfitted, getting them swagged.
37:18
Speaker 4: Out stuff you want to wear it.
37:20
Speaker 3: But by the way, he's like, hey man, this stuff,
37:21

37:32
Speaker 1: I don't know Jimmy Hasselm canna be doing that.
37:34
Speaker 3: So I do want to give some some thanks to
37:37
Speaker 3: as We've talked a lot about the end potentially of
37:39
Speaker 3: the Yannis deal, but there were a lot made in
37:42
Speaker 3: a lot of speculation as to how Edens and Lazary
37:44
Speaker 3: would be. Now Dazree since gone from it, but man
37:48
Speaker 3: Wes Edens putting some work now. He's definitely enjoyed himself
37:51
Speaker 3: as the governor of the Milwaukee Bucks, but he's always
37:54
Speaker 3: trying to get his sleeves dirty and be able to
37:56
Speaker 3: sell some merch.
37:57
Speaker 1: That's where I first saw that bad way. I love
37:58
Speaker 1: that one.
37:59
Speaker 2: Never tried to in that All Star Game Celebrity game either.
38:02
Speaker 1: No, no, never never tried. Yeah, that's a good point.
38:05
Speaker 1: I I do appreciate it.
38:06
Speaker 4: Hey, Shams is in that game this year. Maybe this
38:09
Speaker 4: is the moment himself. I thought I saw that unless
38:12
Speaker 4: I got sent possible.
38:14
Speaker 1: Man well, and that goes to show you that he
38:17
Speaker 1: doesn't traffic with players.
38:18
Speaker 2: Much I can't imagine so, because you.
38:21
Speaker 1: Wouldn't want to put that on tape and let players
38:23
Speaker 1: just tee you up and rip. Yeah.
38:25
Speaker 2: I don't know face players a lot.
38:27
Speaker 4: I'm just happy there has been a real celebrity in
38:30
Speaker 4: that game for years. It's just a lot of influencers
38:32
Speaker 4: I've never heard of. I'm sorry, Well who am I missing?
38:35
Speaker 4: Was there somebody that's played in.
38:36
Speaker 1: That Micah Parsons I think won the m v P
38:38
Speaker 1: last year.
38:39
Speaker 4: Okay, but I think of him as an athlete.
38:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean I guess. By the way, did
38:45
Speaker 1: you see Josh Jacobs said there's a tape of him
38:48
Speaker 1: running at the local beach. Oh no, he's just playing.
38:51
Speaker 2: He was walking on the beach. He was just playing
38:53
Speaker 2: a pickup game at the Why. It's like when Josh and.
38:55
Speaker 1: He had like a Packers sweatshirt on. He's just playing.
38:58
Speaker 4: He's a real one, man. I mean, I'm not gonna
39:00
Speaker 4: pretend just because we talked to him once last year
39:02
Speaker 4: at the Super Bowl, I know him pretty cool, but
39:03
Speaker 4: he seemed like a real one, and we do we have,
39:06
Speaker 4: we have talk.
39:06
Speaker 1: He is a real one.
39:07
Speaker 3: He's also a real potential question and an interesting one
39:11
Speaker 3: when you start talking about the russ ball part of
39:13
Speaker 3: the off season here for the Packers.
39:15
Speaker 2: We haven't talked much about that at his contractity.
39:18
