0:12
Speaker 2: welcome back, depending on when your alarm goes off in
0:15
Speaker 2: the morning. It's seven oh two on this Wednesday, May
0:18
Speaker 2: twentieth in the good Land, Drew, Billy and armand bringing
0:20
Speaker 2: it to you on the Huddle. Fox Sports Radio broadcasting
0:23
Speaker 2: live locally Milwaukee nine ten seventy AM and Madison, our
0:27
Speaker 2: friends over there worldwide on the iHeartRadio app just searched
0:30
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio nine twenty or ten seventy and of
0:34
Speaker 2: course streaming live on Facebook, YouTube and x Hot Take
0:38
Speaker 2: hump Day. We want your opinions.
0:39
Speaker 1: Hot takes.
0:40
Speaker 2: Be they about the Brewers, the Cubs, the Miz Bryce Terrang,
0:45
Speaker 2: It can be about James Harden and the colossal collapse.
0:49
Speaker 2: Was it a great comeback by the next or was
0:50
Speaker 2: it the choke of all time by the Calves. They're
0:53
Speaker 2: wondering if this is the worst loss in Calves history.
0:56
Speaker 2: Now Lebron's last game before he left, like the first
0:59
Speaker 2: time I was against Boston.
1:01
Speaker 1: Sure that would be a good one.
1:03
Speaker 2: There was the the Jordan game when Craig Craig Elow
1:06
Speaker 2: helped out, watched him Jordan make the shot. They've had
1:10
Speaker 2: some tuzz of the first round, had some losses, some
1:12
Speaker 2: brutal like against Golden State in the finals, a lot
1:16
Speaker 2: of a lot of tough losses to Golden State. But
1:19
Speaker 2: this one, when you're up twenty two, now, granted it
1:21
Speaker 2: was game one of these Cup finals, and you know.
1:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, this would have to This would go up with
1:26
Speaker 3: Drew the j R. Smith forgetting how much time was
1:29
Speaker 3: left on the clock and not knowing the score because
1:31
Speaker 3: they were about to steal game one of that NBA
1:34
Speaker 3: Finals and resultingly, so I believe Lebron you know, allegedly
1:38
Speaker 3: or not allegedly broke his hand after the game and
1:42
Speaker 3: this series was basically over at that point, that this
1:45
Speaker 3: would have to be it because now you got to
1:47
Speaker 3: win five games, right, you had that game one, and
1:50
Speaker 3: now you've got to beat a team that you were
1:52
Speaker 3: a resounding underdog against five times in seven games. It
1:58
Speaker 3: that that's something that you just can't can't get up
2:00
Speaker 3: and especially when it all ties together of wait, we
2:05
Speaker 3: got to pay this guy how much money? How many
2:07
Speaker 3: times have they scored against them in the fourth quarter?
2:09
Speaker 3: Oh so they were only going against James Harden. It
2:12
Speaker 3: wasn't anything to do with our big guys in the middle,
2:14
Speaker 3: and our former defensive player of the Year Evan Mobley
2:16
Speaker 3: couldn't do anything.
2:17
Speaker 1: To stop it.
2:18
Speaker 3: That's a site for sore eyes when one man is
2:22
Speaker 3: the target and had no response for it.
2:25
Speaker 2: There's a duality of X slash Twitter and when you
2:29
Speaker 2: get opinions that seem opposed but aren't, like, for example,
2:34
Speaker 2: a fellow named Sam Quinn from CBS, Yes, yes, this
2:39
Speaker 2: has been a potentially franchise altering tobacco for Cleveland. Sure
2:42
Speaker 2: this is And I don't know how you recover from this.
2:45
Speaker 2: All the fake trade stuff that was bubbling in the
2:47
Speaker 2: first two rounds is back on the table. Kind of loss, yeah,
2:51
Speaker 2: to which someone replied, there are at least sixty losses
2:55
Speaker 2: every postseason. The collective crashouts that happened after them will
2:59
Speaker 2: warp your whole analysis of a team or a player situation.
3:03
Speaker 1: That is, things are true.
3:05
Speaker 3: I was gonna say both things can be true, and
3:08
Speaker 3: you kind of forget about how difficult it is Drew
3:10
Speaker 3: to compartmentalize it in the playoffs. But every year we
3:13
Speaker 3: almost have to retrain our minds of how how the
3:17
Speaker 3: lifetime of these series go. There was not a whole
3:20
Speaker 3: lot of folks that down two to zero against the
3:22
Speaker 3: Brooklyn Nets as thoroughly dominated as the Bucks were in
3:26
Speaker 3: those first two games. Felt very great going back for
3:29
Speaker 3: the grudging Game three that ended up what eighty six
3:32
Speaker 3: eighty four, fantastic point in that game in that game three, like,
3:36
Speaker 3: and then after Game five where you're up seventeen or
3:40
Speaker 3: eighteen in the third quarter and KD just single handedly
3:43
Speaker 3: willed them passed you. There's a lot of doubt that
3:47
Speaker 3: creeps in. But I am kind of on the side
3:50
Speaker 3: where like, I don't know how you go into the
3:52
Speaker 3: offseason with that being one of the final tastes in
3:54
Speaker 3: your mouth. Threw and say yeah, yeah, one or two
3:59
Speaker 3: pieces and we're in right one or two and doesn't
4:01
Speaker 3: mean subtracting number one.
4:03
Speaker 2: I used a variation of this riff yesterday at our
4:05
Speaker 2: Packers speakers here. Shout out to everybody who showed up
4:08
Speaker 2: with the Harley Davidson uh complex over there, Harley Day
4:11
Speaker 2: Museum complex. We were in the garage I think it's called, Yeah,
4:15
Speaker 2: it's great, good venue and uh we saw our friends
4:17
Speaker 2: from the Packers got to hanging out with Wayne therevy
4:19
Speaker 2: wes Hockko. It's one of our favorite people on the planet.
4:22
Speaker 2: Dude had so much fun.
4:24
Speaker 3: He was ripping shots and you know, little shooters apparently
4:28
Speaker 3: big time, big time last he's a cool.
4:31
Speaker 2: Guy now Wayne throwing him under the bus. But I
4:33
Speaker 2: said something about that because what happened with the Packers
4:36
Speaker 2: and the way people view the Packers going into this season.
4:38
Speaker 2: Six draft picks and they have so many holes and
4:41
Speaker 2: they're so awful because of the way last year finished. Well,
4:43
Speaker 2: they're four best, four or five best guys were out.
4:46
Speaker 2: It was Yes, it was awful, but that that has
4:49
Speaker 2: changed the perception for a lot of people of how
4:51
Speaker 2: good the Packers were. When Micah Parsons got hurt nine
4:54
Speaker 2: three and one ahead at the number one seed on
4:56
Speaker 2: the road in the second half and then the wheels
4:59
Speaker 2: fell off, was it atrocious. Yes, I'm not excusing anything
5:02
Speaker 2: about it was atrocious train wreck that blowing the leads
5:05
Speaker 2: against the Bears. Those losses of the Bears were horrible,
5:08
Speaker 2: and obviously I'm not condoning it, but I'm saying that
5:11
Speaker 2: has warped people's perceptions of where this franchise is in
5:15
Speaker 2: terms of its talent and it's standing in the league
5:18
Speaker 2: as a legitimate I think entering the season championship contender,
5:22
Speaker 2: they're right in the mix with everybody else who wants
5:23
Speaker 2: to call themselves a contender. But it doesn't feel that
5:26
Speaker 2: way because the way they lost down the stretch.
5:29
Speaker 4: Yeah, some all moments can do that, right, Yeah, they
5:31
Speaker 4: can leave a different kind of taste in your mouth,
5:33
Speaker 4: that's for sure.
5:33
Speaker 2: Yeah.
5:34
Speaker 4: And this is you know, it's this is where I
5:37
Speaker 4: think eres are created in sports fandom. These these moments,
5:41
Speaker 4: the fear of these moments are where those things are born.
5:45
Speaker 4: Because you it's hard to enjoy sometimes for some fans
5:49
Speaker 4: any moment like Cavs should have been pretty happy up
5:52
Speaker 4: twenty with seven to go. But the e or is
5:55
Speaker 4: created because the fear of something like that happening, knowing
5:58
Speaker 4: it could happen at any time and alter, like you said,
6:00
Speaker 4: potentially alter a franchise. That is that that idea that
6:04
Speaker 4: the sky could fall at any time overwhelms. A lot
6:08
Speaker 4: of sports fans have a lot of passion for their
6:10
Speaker 4: teams because they fear those moments, and these are the
6:13
Speaker 4: things where yours are created. You'll remember that moment and say, man,
6:16
Speaker 4: I'm always gonna worry that this could be happening to us.
6:19
Speaker 3: There'll be a lot of folks that remember, they listen
6:21
Speaker 3: the athletes even say you remember the losses even more
6:24
Speaker 3: than you do the wins. That one sticks with you
6:27
Speaker 3: big time. But it does lend itself to you know,
6:30
Speaker 3: I know there were a lot of fake trades. And
6:33
Speaker 3: you mentioned Bill Simmons. He him and Zach Low sat
6:35
Speaker 3: down and ripped through twenty minutes worth of all the
6:37
Speaker 3: exciting fun Cleveland offseason content to get into. And I
6:41
Speaker 3: do think a lot of that's back on the table.
6:43
Speaker 3: But like parts of their team played well, Mobley and
6:45
Speaker 3: Allen were really really good. I thought they feasted inside.
6:48
Speaker 3: They can absolutely get.
6:49
Speaker 1: More of that.
6:50
Speaker 3: But when you look back at it, the Knicks are
6:52
Speaker 3: gonna say, all right, whatever number one's on the floor,
6:55
Speaker 3: we know exactly where we have to circle, and the
6:57
Speaker 3: game plan is going to be different. And when you
7:00
Speaker 3: get outscored forty four to eleven in the final twelve
7:04
Speaker 3: call it twelve and a half minutes of a game,
7:07
Speaker 3: I mean that is a choke job of epic epic proportion.
7:11
Speaker 4: You know, the saving grace they have is that it
7:13
Speaker 4: happened in game one, because they do have the ability
7:15
Speaker 4: to totally rewrite the script and change history. Obviously it's
7:18
Speaker 4: gonna be hard now. And sometimes those games do feel
7:20
Speaker 4: like they take the win out of your sales. But
7:22
Speaker 4: they come back and win game two or you know,
7:24
Speaker 4: take a lead, maybe they find a way to win
7:26
Speaker 4: the series.
7:27
Speaker 1: It would be forgotten. You can you can change that script.
7:30
Speaker 4: This happens later on if you lose a game like this,
7:32
Speaker 4: when you have a chance to clinch or take a
7:33
Speaker 4: three two lead, for instance, it's totally different.
7:35
Speaker 1: But the fact is, did it happen in game one?
7:38
Speaker 4: Like now, So they have to find a way if
7:41
Speaker 4: your caves the Cavs fan whatever saying, they like you
7:44
Speaker 4: find a way to get off the mat and try
7:45
Speaker 4: and rewrite history. So they're saying, you know what, this
7:47
Speaker 4: can't define us. We're not gonna let it because we
7:49
Speaker 4: do have a short memory in sports like this could
7:52
Speaker 4: be the worst loss ever if they lose the series
7:54
Speaker 4: for them, or it could be you know, part of
7:57
Speaker 4: the story of them being able to overcome.
8:00
Speaker 2: And adversity and things like that.
8:01
Speaker 4: I mean, there have been you know, bad game one
8:04
Speaker 4: losses in history that didn't dictate series. And that's the
8:07
Speaker 4: number of them. Number of them. Think about the Raptors series.
8:11
Speaker 4: I mean you talk about we didn't think much about
8:13
Speaker 4: that Net series down to Oh nope. I don't think
8:15
Speaker 4: anyone thought the Bucks were gonna lose that Raptor series.
8:17
Speaker 4: After going up to all the way they blew out
8:18
Speaker 4: Toronto and game two, I remember going on the air
8:21
Speaker 4: and saying they end up fifteen three and four.
8:23
Speaker 1: Great point.
8:24
Speaker 4: I remember, there's nowhere else they can go from here
8:27
Speaker 4: to the Toronto while they went to the finals.
8:29
Speaker 2: So that was wrong.
8:30
Speaker 4: So those things can happen. It's a matter of like, Okay,
8:33
Speaker 4: now we'll see what they're made of. You know all
8:34
Speaker 4: the cliches. But what are they gonna do now? And
8:37
Speaker 4: how how can the Knicks kind of push back the
8:41
Speaker 4: excitement of thinking we got this, we got this, when
8:43
Speaker 4: really you have three more games to win. There's challenges
8:45
Speaker 4: on both sides.
8:45
Speaker 2: Now.
8:46
Speaker 3: Well, the Knicks have had to hear it for the
8:48
Speaker 3: last couple of weeks about how great they are too.
8:50
Speaker 3: I don't know if I don't know if that's a
8:51
Speaker 3: bad thing. They're gonna hear a lot more of it too.
8:53
Speaker 3: They're gonna hear a lot more of it too, But
8:56
Speaker 3: we all do we all, we all get we all
8:58
Speaker 3: get to hear more.
8:58
Speaker 1: Not from Cameron. He's keep this from their neck man
9:01
Speaker 1: and say, hey, you're gonna disappoint us, so you have to.
9:04
Speaker 3: Well, I'm glad we do have a rapper to be
9:06
Speaker 3: able to tell us that. On Sports talf. How about
9:08
Speaker 3: a hot take here, and this one is showing how
9:10
Speaker 3: in shambles they might be down on the North Side
9:13
Speaker 3: and into Chicago territory, Drew. Yep, the scorers morning conversation
9:18
Speaker 3: here today, is it time for Craig Council to give
9:21
Speaker 3: Pete crow Armstrong a day off to mentally reset. Not
9:26
Speaker 3: because of a young lady in a sundress celebrating her engagement. No,
9:31
Speaker 3: because of a routine, and I mean the most routine
9:34
Speaker 3: of routine. Flyballs that just clase off my man's glove
9:39
Speaker 3: last night, drew even the optimistic part of me. There's
9:43
Speaker 3: no way a score on the Super Special Scoring review
9:48
Speaker 3: app that you have. There's no way that gets reviewed right,
9:50
Speaker 3: So I can throw away that one and a half
9:51
Speaker 3: total basis ticket for SEALF.
9:53
Speaker 2: You like returning, Yeah, that's not returning.
9:55
Speaker 3: That was about as bad of a play as you
9:57
Speaker 3: possibly can have, and he's a he's struggling right now.
10:00
Speaker 2: He's trying to find something, that's for sure. Yeah, that
10:03
Speaker 2: was weird.
10:03
Speaker 4: Uh.
10:04
Speaker 2: He did get the envelope though, the fed X envelope
10:07
Speaker 2: with the fine from the Major League Baseball shows up
10:09
Speaker 2: on your uh, on your locker chair. There it is
10:12
Speaker 2: fed X from Park Avenue in New York. We're gonna
10:15
Speaker 2: need that direct undisclosed amount for him. Find knew that
10:18
Speaker 2: was coming because the ladies started talking to him and
10:21
Speaker 2: he couldn't help himself.
10:22
Speaker 3: But I will say I I do uh, I do
10:25
Speaker 3: think his uh, his apology was was perfectly well said.
10:29
Speaker 3: I apologize for the action. I don't apologize to her.
10:33
Speaker 1: I thought that that was maybe my favorite part, and
10:38
Speaker 1: I kind of agree.
10:39
Speaker 3: I don't think anybody you needed to apologize because you're
10:41
Speaker 3: a public figure and it's the right thing to do
10:44
Speaker 3: and you can't cross the line. Understand that one. But
10:48
Speaker 3: I do appreciate he's like, I apologized to all the
10:50
Speaker 3: kids that were watching. If she's watching, definitely notice Yeah,
10:54
Speaker 3: Like I do like that.
10:55
Speaker 4: Energy honestly from PCA, And he's setting himself up to
10:58
Speaker 4: be a really interesting enigmatic figure in Chicago, Like he
11:03
Speaker 4: came up with fan fair kind of underwhelmed, then had
11:05
Speaker 4: the monstrous year last year where everyone fell in love
11:07
Speaker 4: with him because you know, he had that spirit and
11:09
Speaker 4: he was a really good player obviously, and he struggled
11:12
Speaker 4: to start the year. And you know, all I keep
11:14
Speaker 4: hearing about how great of a fielder he is, and
11:15
Speaker 4: he drops a can of.
11:17
Speaker 2: Really is a great film?
11:18
Speaker 1: Maybe he is. His numbers are phenomenal.
11:20
Speaker 2: He's like the best guy going and he dropped one
11:23
Speaker 2: and that's swinging a miss against miz when he went
11:25
Speaker 2: to a k neil and he fell on almost cracked
11:27
Speaker 2: his ankle. Holy cow. Yeah, maybe it's time for him
11:30
Speaker 2: to get it. That's funny that the Score is talking
11:32
Speaker 2: about that give him a day? Can we get him
11:34
Speaker 2: a day? We gotta give him a day. I like that.
11:36
Speaker 4: If he's a guy that the emotion drives his performance,
11:39
Speaker 4: then I think you have to figure out ways to
11:41
Speaker 4: manage it, because the shot seems like he's one of
11:43
Speaker 4: those type of guys, an emotional player.
11:45
Speaker 3: Well, and and I appreciate even more so in as
11:49
Speaker 3: we're we're looking through the first two games. Now there's
11:51
Speaker 3: a long way to go right full season series, and
11:53
Speaker 3: I do expect there's a good chance, better than fifty
11:56
Speaker 3: fifty chance, these two teams are playing in the playoffs. Again,
11:59
Speaker 3: I appreciate Alex Bregman just taking taking Kyle Tucker's spot.
12:04
Speaker 3: And so the guy that just just right there in
12:06
Speaker 3: the middle of the middle of the three hole really
12:09
Speaker 3: really good against every other team except the Brewers.
12:11
Speaker 1: Let's just let's just hopefully keep.
12:13
Speaker 3: That in the spot because Bregman has not necessarily announced
12:16
Speaker 3: his presence in this series quite yet.
12:18
Speaker 2: It was fifty four ish weeks ago Cubs came to
12:22
Speaker 2: Milwaukee play the Brewers, and they came for the weekend,
12:27
Speaker 2: and they kind of made themselves comfortable. Friday night, May second,
12:30
Speaker 2: last year, Cubs ten Brewers zero, feed up Rocking. Saturday
12:36
Speaker 2: May third, Cubs six Brewers two, and so sixteen to
12:40
Speaker 2: two in the first two games, and it didn't seem
12:42
Speaker 2: that close. No, No, I remember this is varsity against
12:45
Speaker 2: the freshman.
12:46
Speaker 1: Yeah, that Friday night game was brutal. Was that the night?
12:49
Speaker 2: And then yeah, and then the Brewers got up off
12:50
Speaker 2: the deck and won the Sunday game four. Nothing. The
12:52
Speaker 2: Cubs just kind of punched out punched out right off,
12:56
Speaker 2: and then then the Brewers transformed themselves three weeks later
12:59
Speaker 2: and caught fire and one to ninety seven games and
13:02
Speaker 2: the rest is history. So again you can get a
13:04
Speaker 2: little giddy about what's going on right now. It would
13:07
Speaker 2: be great if the Brewers do wrap up this weep
13:09
Speaker 2: and go into a nice off day, because it doesn't
13:12
Speaker 2: get any easier. You're playing the Dodgers and the Cardinals.
13:14
Speaker 3: One hundred percent. Yeah, this is the toughest stretches. We
13:18
Speaker 3: were talking about the Packers schedule. This was the part
13:20
Speaker 3: of the schedule you circled as you're not gonna win
13:23
Speaker 3: or lose a division or a playoff spot in May,
13:25
Speaker 3: but you're gonna either put yourself behind the eight ball
13:27
Speaker 3: or know that you're gonna be right in the mix
13:29
Speaker 3: with this kind.
13:29
Speaker 2: Of a run. Yeah, so that's where that's what we're
13:31
Speaker 2: looking at now. I mean, yeah, the headhead games are
13:35
Speaker 2: important for sure, and you're gonna it's gonna be going
13:37
Speaker 2: on af fall all summer. I think that they're gonna
13:39
Speaker 2: be going back and forth and you're gonna be following
13:42
Speaker 2: the Cubs, and the Cubs have already had two ten
13:44
Speaker 2: game winning streaks y means they're capable of that, and
13:47
Speaker 2: they're also capable of some shaky play like we've seen
13:49
Speaker 2: in the last week and a half.
13:50
Speaker 3: And I think the better part of it drew for
13:52
Speaker 3: for Brewers fans, because you're right, they've shown they're capable
13:55
Speaker 3: of it. The Brewers now showed that they're capable of
13:57
Speaker 3: going on that sustained run fifteen of their last twenty
14:01
Speaker 3: games winning That would easily put you fifteen and five
14:04
Speaker 3: quickly to the number we've been circling on this show
14:06
Speaker 3: for quite some time. Ten games over five hundred the
14:09
Speaker 3: first mark. Once they tasted a little bit of their
14:12
Speaker 3: own blood and got themselves back to five hundred, it's
14:14
Speaker 3: been a run ever since then.
14:17
Speaker 2: Andy and west Ben hit us with a hot take
14:18
Speaker 2: earlier today, the crew better add a proven bat at
14:22
Speaker 2: third and a proven arm because they can win it
14:26
Speaker 2: all this year.
14:28
Speaker 1: I love it. I love that we've said this for
14:29
Speaker 1: the last eight years now, Amazement, we're always in contention.
14:32
Speaker 2: You can always use bullpen depth, but one of the
14:34
Speaker 2: Brewers really need Yeah, they need more from the left
14:37
Speaker 2: side of the infield. This Cooper Prat the answer, don't know,
14:40
Speaker 2: maybe yeah, maybe, Jet Williams is Williams. The answer, well,
14:43
Speaker 2: get a shot. Jet Williams could be this year's Caleb Durbin.
14:45
Speaker 2: It's about this time that Caleb Durbin came on the
14:47
Speaker 2: scene last year.
14:48
Speaker 4: Yeah, right around Arnatto. Do you want to take a swing?
14:50
Speaker 4: Do the whole auh.
14:52
Speaker 3: I've been asking about I've been asking for Ronado for
14:54
Speaker 3: four years now and I'm done asking done.
14:56
Speaker 1: I'm done. I'm done hammering that nails.
14:59
Speaker 2: Now. They can get a Priester if they could get
15:02
Speaker 2: when a priest looks like he might be shelved, but
15:04
Speaker 2: Woodriff or Priester, one of those two guys that would
15:06
Speaker 2: negate if you get one of the If you get
15:08
Speaker 2: both those guys back, great, But if you get one
15:09
Speaker 2: of them back kind of negates the urgency for a
15:12
Speaker 2: starter given the way they are. But you can never
15:14
Speaker 2: have enough pitching because they can always slide an ashby
15:16
Speaker 2: up or a Chad Patrick or something that they have
15:19
Speaker 2: and then call up guys that have pitched well out
15:21
Speaker 2: of Triple A so far this year. So but another
15:25
Speaker 2: bullpen arm, just extend that bullpen, give yourself some coverage,
15:29
Speaker 2: and you know, a bat for the left side of
15:31
Speaker 2: the infield.
15:32
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree with it more.
15:34
Speaker 2: Drew.
15:34
Speaker 3: They it feels like they're one to two arms short.
15:36
Speaker 3: Now they're gonna get a couple of those bullpen arms
15:38
Speaker 3: back right, you hope, and that might be, you know,
15:41
Speaker 3: even bigger wish casting than bringing somebody up from triple
15:43
Speaker 3: A to hit in the middle of the left side
15:46
Speaker 3: of the infield, because bullpen guys feel like they are
15:49
Speaker 3: jeckling hide every year. Right, you're gonna go up and down.
15:52
Speaker 3: There's rarely a reliever that has back to back knockout seasons.
15:57
Speaker 3: And the amount of ham innings you put on the
15:59
Speaker 3: arm of Cane Glass year, it feels like you're paying
16:02
Speaker 3: some of the penance for it. You need two arms
16:05
Speaker 3: in the back end, I think to fully feel solidified
16:10
Speaker 3: rolling for now. Can some of those come from within?
16:14
Speaker 1: Sure?
16:15
Speaker 3: I've been being told about Craig Yoho being one of
16:17
Speaker 3: those guys for a couple of years, that that would
16:19
Speaker 3: be nice if he was off of the the the
16:22
Speaker 3: Orthepedic Associates of Wisconsin Injury or Port. But we'll see,
16:25
Speaker 3: Like they have a couple of guys that internally would
16:27
Speaker 3: be options. But by July I would anticipate bullpen arms
16:30
Speaker 3: the one that you circle right near at the top.
16:33
Speaker 3: And I wouldn't be against the highest of the high leverage,
16:36
Speaker 3: right like Abner, everybody's been very nice in that role.
16:39
Speaker 3: He's had a couple of hiccups. You know, McGill had
16:42
Speaker 3: a hiccup, but he was an all star guy a
16:43
Speaker 3: year ago. I wouldn't be against shopping at the highest year.
16:46
Speaker 3: I know they won't, but they they're gonna need more
16:48
Speaker 3: help and reinforcements in the pen.
16:50
Speaker 4: I agree absolutely. Dobbler coming in with the hot take.
16:53
Speaker 4: I suppose this console is a hot take. PCA is
16:56
Speaker 4: just another flash in the pan player that's returning to reality. Oh,
17:00
Speaker 4: just like Garrett Mitchell and Kessen Hero he had to
17:02
Speaker 4: get his daily shot and on Keston, I see what
17:04
Speaker 4: that was about. Okay, Well Kessen just signed a big
17:06
Speaker 4: deal he did in Korea, right.
17:08
Speaker 1: Kb O baby, Come on now, how about a hot
17:11
Speaker 1: take there?
17:12
Speaker 3: Hot take from our friend Ryan and Freedom, who sent
17:14
Speaker 3: in a picture of the championship ring of a Freedom
17:18
Speaker 3: basketball championship. This is what the give This is the
17:21
Speaker 3: giveaway at tournaments in Freedom. They're cost effective and take
17:25
Speaker 3: up much less room. Sounds like Ryan and Freedom again,
17:28
Speaker 3: is almost more championship ring positive for the young tournaments
17:32
Speaker 3: than negative. Like we were maybe anticipating a lot.
17:34
Speaker 4: We make them maybe like challenge coins where they're like,
17:36
Speaker 4: you know, keepsakes, or like pittons where they're souvenirs.
17:40
Speaker 1: Okay, that's a different story.
17:42
Speaker 4: I was expecting big old Johnstin's oversized you know, cost
17:46
Speaker 4: the parents two hundred fifty dollars.
17:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, just to feel concluded. Okay, all right, that didn't.
17:53
Speaker 2: Before we go to break Billy, it's sent for a
17:55
Speaker 2: little who's hot who's not? Donovan Jorgenson heating, cooling, plumbing.
17:58
Speaker 2: I think we don't have to overthink it. And Bowers
18:00
Speaker 2: are hot and James Harden and the Cavs are James
18:03
Speaker 2: Harden not hot.
18:04
Speaker 3: What also is hot right now is tarps off. Have
18:06
Speaker 3: you guys seen this? The trend is back. It was
18:10
Speaker 3: big going on in college football where we're just getting
18:14
Speaker 3: sections of young youngsters, generally young men around the ages
18:17
Speaker 3: of it appears like ten to eighteen that are taking
18:21
Speaker 3: up large sections in the upper levels, ripping the shirt
18:24
Speaker 3: off and waving them around. Back now, this was big
18:26
Speaker 3: during college football. I want to say the Washington game
18:31
Speaker 3: either Washington or Illinois.
18:32
Speaker 1: One of the wins.
18:33
Speaker 3: In the month of November, PARPs Off hit Camp Randall
18:36
Speaker 3: and it was a buzz. It was a real deal
18:38
Speaker 3: in the student section and quickly the security was not
18:41
Speaker 3: allowing people in the normal seats to come into the
18:44
Speaker 3: student section to go tarps off with the boys. If
18:47
Speaker 3: it brings w's, people will continue to do it. However,
18:51
Speaker 3: we might just be a little bit late. Guess we
18:53
Speaker 3: were doing this like six months ago. I'm glad baseball
18:55
Speaker 3: is catching on Who's hot Who's not With Donovan Jorgenson,
18:58
Speaker 3: if you're trying to catch some issues that you got
19:00
Speaker 3: with your heating and cooling this week, up and down,
19:03
Speaker 3: up and down.
19:05
Speaker 1: Airon, heat on, airon, heat on.
19:07
Speaker 3: If something gets tripped up, Donovan Jorgenson is the hottest
19:10
Speaker 3: number to call. They're the place to go to because
19:12
Speaker 3: they offer some zero percent financing with sixty months on
19:14
Speaker 3: select models. They also have a new location opening up
19:17
Speaker 3: in Menominee Falls later this summer. And the best part is,
19:20
Speaker 3: unlike other companies that say they can do plumbing and
19:23
Speaker 3: siding and electrical and r hvac, no, Donovan Jorgenson is
19:27
Speaker 3: your HVAC leader they're the largest employee on HVAC company
19:30
Speaker 3: in state of Wisconsin for a region reason. Just go
19:32
Speaker 3: to Donovan Jorgenson dot com and be a one stop shop.
19:35
Speaker 2: If I'm not mistaken, Paul Wagner is going to join
19:37
Speaker 2: us next.
19:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're we're seeing it.
19:39
Speaker 3: It appears that we might be snoozing through that one,
19:42
Speaker 3: so we might have but yeah, we might have a
19:45
Speaker 3: Wags on Friday once again.
19:47
Speaker 4: Well or they might have a big time in their
19:48
Speaker 4: sites and they don't want to mess with anything. I
19:50
Speaker 4: saw him in task or flashing those turkeys around the other.
19:53
Speaker 2: That could be. Oh, all find out together whether Wags
19:58
Speaker 2: is next. You're in the Hut Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin
20:06
Speaker 2: continuing the Huddle Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Drew billion armon
20:09
Speaker 2: bringing it to you streaming live, Facebook x YouTube. I
20:14
Speaker 2: guess Weggs is not going to join the program, but
20:16
Speaker 2: we'll have him Friday.
20:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's enjoying the the beautiful sights and scenery of
20:23
Speaker 3: Sioux Falls, so you know, we apologize to him to
20:26
Speaker 3: have to go and enjoy that and then gets the
20:28
Speaker 3: Kansas City Monarchs over the weekends. We'll probably we'll talk
20:30
Speaker 3: to Wagg's coming up on Friday, but Milwaukee Milkman also
20:34
Speaker 3: playing some games dochounds getting back into the swing of
20:37
Speaker 3: things and back into action. There's gonna be a lot
20:39
Speaker 3: of ball in the area this weekend. Brewers off of
20:42
Speaker 3: the series with the Cubs, good energy to bring the
20:45
Speaker 3: Dodgers in town, and I for one, drew and fired
20:48
Speaker 3: up for this Dodgers series coming up this.
20:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, that should be a good measuring stick.
20:51
Speaker 3: If it's play it the same way as last year.
20:55
Speaker 3: You get Cubs right into a Dodger series and the
20:58
Speaker 3: Dodgers are, you know, not getting a easy lead in
21:04
Speaker 3: here as they go to San Diego and they're getting
21:06
Speaker 3: all they can handle Dres this weekend fight. So it's
21:09
Speaker 3: a good dog fight there and then they come back
21:10
Speaker 3: here and hopefully no rest for the weary. I'm excited
21:12
Speaker 3: for this weekend at the at the ballpark. Here's me
21:14
Speaker 3: a fun one. It's been quite a stretch here in
21:16
Speaker 3: terms of opponents.
21:17
Speaker 4: You know, you obviously the Yankees series, Uh, Brews had
21:20
Speaker 4: to face the Padres, a very very good team, you know,
21:23
Speaker 4: Cubs now Dodgers, and and they've acquitted themselves well so far.
21:26
Speaker 4: The Brewers have been the This has been their best
21:28
Speaker 4: stretch so far the season in this stretch.
21:30
Speaker 2: So yeah, Billy, I totally agree.
21:32
Speaker 4: If you're someone likes to take their kid out or
21:34
Speaker 4: like to go see stars, or go see the the
21:36
Speaker 4: rest of the league, come out and play. You've had
21:38
Speaker 4: a really good a really good chance to see some
21:40
Speaker 4: great players. You know. The obviously Judge and those guys
21:43
Speaker 4: come in town now the Dodgers bring their cavalcade of guys.
21:46
Speaker 4: So still one of the best deals going in terms
21:49
Speaker 4: of entertainment in this town to go to a Brewers game,
21:51
Speaker 4: I'll say that till till my years fall.
21:53
Speaker 3: Yeah, and uh and Drew, we were having a conversation
21:56
Speaker 3: yesterday with our friend Wayne Larvy, a voice of the
21:57
Speaker 3: Green Bay Path. I've heard of him and obviously noted
22:01
Speaker 3: Yankee fan, A big fan of him, not a big
22:03
Speaker 3: fan of their lineup.
22:04
Speaker 1: He's probably fired up.
22:06
Speaker 2: Huh.
22:07
Speaker 3: We have four guys in this in this lineup that
22:08
Speaker 3: are automatic outs. What are they even doing every night?
22:11
Speaker 3: Automatic out? It was awesome, but.
22:13
Speaker 4: We're gonna have a tough time making the playoffs. I'm
22:15
Speaker 4: assuming he says it every year.
22:16
Speaker 2: I don't.
22:17
Speaker 1: I don't think he's got him in right. It is
22:18
Speaker 1: a tough time.
22:19
Speaker 4: I mean, this is good. They're gonna have a tough time.
22:21
Speaker 4: And Jazz Chisholm is not a real Yankee yet. All right,
22:23
Speaker 4: that's what he likes in the absolute best.
22:26
Speaker 3: But in the midst of that, we're talking about Judge
22:28
Speaker 3: the Stars of being like that dude is a superhuman.
22:32
Speaker 3: That guy looks kind of like an alien. Getting your
22:34
Speaker 3: eyes on show Hao Tani is something that I still
22:37
Speaker 3: urge everybody to do. He's not playing his best, so
22:40
Speaker 3: I actually might be able to catch him on a
22:41
Speaker 3: good week, might be able to catch him in a
22:43
Speaker 3: good season where he's not just dismantling the entire MLB,
22:47
Speaker 3: but he is a He is a sight to withhold
22:50
Speaker 3: because that dude is just a massive, massive human being
22:53
Speaker 3: and a hell of a ball player. And I'm very
22:55
Speaker 3: excited to see that that All Star team roll through
22:58
Speaker 3: here coming up this weekend. Hopefully they two to three
23:00
Speaker 3: and the Brewers come out of this in another series.
23:02
Speaker 2: What's more exciting the Dodgers in town wrapping up that
23:07
Speaker 2: series on Sunday or the Memorial Day one o'clock dollar
23:09
Speaker 2: hot Dog game. That's a tough dollar hot dog. Now
23:13
Speaker 2: that the Birs have the hot Dog Club, but Memorial Day
23:15
Speaker 2: Dollar hot Dogs. I was talking to a smart, good
23:19
Speaker 2: looking friend of the program, female listener who was very
23:21
Speaker 2: excited for how talk. I'm like, what's the goal. You're
23:23
Speaker 2: gonna try to get one an inning? She said, not
23:26
Speaker 2: the nine and that, not the not the beer thing,
23:28
Speaker 2: not the JJ watt, but just hot Dog Day. And
23:31
Speaker 2: so I'm like, how many you gonna CROs? You're gonna
23:33
Speaker 2: try for one inning? She goes, that's pretty much the goal.
23:35
Speaker 2: Let's ride that's impressive at a time and try to
23:38
Speaker 2: get down one an inning.
23:39
Speaker 3: Because it is that is the biggest part of it.
23:42
Speaker 3: You cannot do the lead in of I'm just gonna
23:44
Speaker 3: get six six dogs, bring them over here, because then
23:47
Speaker 3: you're looking at them and like the feeling of that
23:51
Speaker 3: in front of you.
23:52
Speaker 1: Pause.
23:53
Speaker 3: Yes, it's gonna be a little daunting, right, because you're
23:55
Speaker 3: just looking at that much sausage, knowing like, how on
23:58
Speaker 3: earth am I going to be able to take this
24:00
Speaker 3: down over the next three or four inning.
24:01
Speaker 1: It's a tough thing to be able to look at.
24:03
Speaker 1: The tough thing is the lines are gonna be long
24:04
Speaker 1: that day.
24:05
Speaker 2: So what do you do?
24:06
Speaker 4: You have to try and you know, you have to
24:07
Speaker 4: try and grab set sausage when you can.
24:10
Speaker 1: So how do you do it?
24:10
Speaker 4: If you really want to do nine to nine, you
24:12
Speaker 4: can't go nine times between every inning.
24:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, then there's a limit, right, So what is the
24:16
Speaker 2: what's the limit?
24:17
Speaker 4: Well ask the other question now, Dollar hot Dog Day.
24:20
Speaker 4: Doing the nine to nine challenge was easier when I
24:22
Speaker 4: was in college in like two two thousand and three
24:24
Speaker 4: and o four, when you did have set sections available,
24:26
Speaker 4: and that's why we were going for there. That was
24:28
Speaker 4: the That was a great time to try and and
24:31
Speaker 4: get that done. Nine hot dogs. It's not easy to do,
24:34
Speaker 4: especially if you're throwing the beer in there too. It's
24:36
Speaker 4: a lot of volume, a lot of volume, but that
24:38
Speaker 4: challenges the fun part. So that's gonna be a good
24:41
Speaker 4: day to be at the ballpark. I can imagine a
24:43
Speaker 4: lot of people circle that one on their calendar.
24:45
Speaker 2: I would think, so.
24:46
Speaker 3: I I just saw the video of the inside the
24:48
Speaker 3: park rand slam again. That was against the Mets yesterday.
24:52
Speaker 3: James Wood down five nothing. Mets are leading and beating
24:56
Speaker 3: the brakes off of the Nationals at the moment.
24:58
Speaker 2: Thank you for that.
25:00
Speaker 3: Just killing the Nationals and all of a sudden James
25:01
Speaker 3: would hits a inside the park Grand Slam Nationals end
25:04
Speaker 3: up winning at nine to six. That visual a Tyrone
25:08
Speaker 3: Taylor might be one of the funniest things of all time.
25:10
Speaker 3: My man is just looking around saying, damn, that's tough
25:15
Speaker 3: guy whose back almost breaks on the wall.
25:17
Speaker 1: Is like, buddy, we're playing baseball.
25:20
Speaker 3: Here, can you go and grab the ball and flies
25:23
Speaker 3: right past Tyrone Taylor. I know you're surprised to hear this.
25:25
Speaker 3: He was taken out later into the game. I don't
25:28
Speaker 3: know if that's it. I don't know if that was
25:29
Speaker 3: a just a pinch hit situation or that might have
25:32
Speaker 3: been a defensive replacement, as Tyrone Taylor was removed from
25:36
Speaker 3: the ball game last night after that situation for the Mets.
25:39
Speaker 3: That's a tough stick.
25:40
Speaker 4: Got a text here if you guys want to nickolay
25:42
Speaker 4: law dot com talking text line.
25:44
Speaker 2: Good to have them around again.
25:46
Speaker 4: By the beautiful Only Phil regarding Slipper Repeat's air of
25:50
Speaker 4: that Slipper Repeats air out there in center field last night,
25:54
Speaker 4: I like to give big props to Freelick for never
25:57
Speaker 4: laying off the gas the entire time and earning the double.
25:59
Speaker 4: Can't beat that huse. Well, it's a great point. We
26:01
Speaker 4: haven't talked about Sal yeah today, but yeah, that was great.
26:03
Speaker 2: I mean there's a giveaway looming of the South fore
26:06
Speaker 2: like dirty Jersey with him, the sliding head first is
26:09
Speaker 2: already dirt stain. That's a pretty good giveaway.
26:12
Speaker 1: It works out. Yeah, that's a good one.
26:13
Speaker 4: You can talk about bail right and all this stuff,
26:15
Speaker 4: but one thing you can never say about Sal's he's
26:16
Speaker 4: not giving it one hundred all time.
26:18
Speaker 2: That's true. We love that about him. Plays his ass off,
26:20
Speaker 2: no doubt. And he's from the Boston area. And we
26:22
Speaker 2: got breaking news from the airline industry. American Airlines is
26:26
Speaker 2: adding a new NonStop flight from Milwaukee to Boston for
26:31
Speaker 2: the Packers game against New England on November eighth. Okay,
26:35
Speaker 2: Yaukee Mitchell International Airport to Boston Logan International Airport on Saturday,
26:39
Speaker 2: November seventh, with a return flight schedule for Monday, November ninth.
26:43
Speaker 2: The Packers play that game. It's a three twenty five
26:45
Speaker 2: start at Gillette, So if you're going to go to that,
26:47
Speaker 2: you can't get back in time to fly out Sunday.
26:48
Speaker 2: You pretty much got a hook over the Sunday night.
26:50
Speaker 2: But that is pretty cool.
26:52
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's good cool.
26:54
Speaker 4: It's good have American Airlines to add that in anticipating
26:56
Speaker 4: more travel to Boston and of course ignoring the fact
26:59
Speaker 4: that they could for NonStop service to Boston from Milwaukee
27:02
Speaker 4: all the time. But hey, hey guys, that's that what
27:05
Speaker 4: we do anymore. You know, Midwest Express days are over.
27:08
Speaker 4: I guess, well there was that that was anyway. I
27:11
Speaker 4: think Jet Blues the other one that does that. So no,
27:13
Speaker 4: that's pretty cool. If you're going out to if you're
27:15
Speaker 4: going out to Boston for the Patriots game in Foxborough,
27:18
Speaker 4: you can, I guess fly American Airlines now NonStop.
27:21
Speaker 2: Yeah.
27:22
Speaker 1: Sure, that price is gonna be great, right, Oh, I'm
27:24
Speaker 1: sure maybe that.
27:25
Speaker 3: Will be more of a ticketed game to circled one
27:29
Speaker 3: for fans. I didn't think that would be one of
27:31
Speaker 3: the hot road games to go to. However, if you
27:35
Speaker 3: if you're you know, trying to mark off of see
27:39
Speaker 3: all the NFL stadiums, you only get it once every
27:41
Speaker 3: eight years generally going out there, so you have to
27:44
Speaker 3: pick some spots for it. But we were looking at
27:48
Speaker 3: it again yesterday. Man, it's New Orleans and then everything else.
27:52
Speaker 3: It feels like on the travel schedule, So maybe there
27:53
Speaker 3: will be a lot more Packers fans that go on
27:55
Speaker 3: invade New England.
27:56
Speaker 1: You like that, you know, and the other defending AFC champs.
27:58
Speaker 4: But maybe it just feels doesn't feel that way because
28:01
Speaker 4: the AFC was so upset down last year on the
28:02
Speaker 4: playoffs where you know, all your stars weren't in there
28:05
Speaker 4: and we're.
28:05
Speaker 3: All seeing the cupcake. It was a weird from the
28:09
Speaker 3: Chargers social media video.
28:10
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, be honest with you, I think it's well,
28:14
Speaker 4: the Rabel thing is what intrigues people most about the
28:16
Speaker 4: team this year. The fact of the matter is that
28:19
Speaker 4: is what people are talking about when it comes to that.
28:21
Speaker 4: So that might I mean, you're not gonna you know,
28:23
Speaker 4: that's not a reason to go see a game live
28:25
Speaker 4: or travel to see a game to see if Diana's
28:27
Speaker 4: gonna be there. But I mean, it's just it's just
28:30
Speaker 4: what people are talking about when it comes to the Patriots, right,
28:33
Speaker 4: they're not talking about they were in the Super Bowl
28:35
Speaker 4: and Drake May and things like that.
28:37
Speaker 1: Will Diana Rossini be at Week one? I don't know
28:40
Speaker 1: why are we gonna hear from her? Here's a hot take.
28:41
Speaker 2: What are we gonna hear from her.
28:42
Speaker 1: That's not a hot take.
28:43
Speaker 4: Well, I guess that's a question. Yeah, okay, hot take.
28:46
Speaker 4: We won't hear from her before the season. I guess
28:48
Speaker 4: it's not a hot take. Will she be a week one?
28:50
Speaker 2: I don't know. Man, bet the under, Yeah, I would too,
28:54
Speaker 2: I think so.
28:55
Speaker 3: Well, I think she might be there. I bet the
28:57
Speaker 3: under on the NFL showing her. I said that would
29:00
Speaker 3: be one that I don't necessarily agree. However, that would
29:03
Speaker 3: be a beautiful, devilish work by the camera producer, just
29:07
Speaker 3: like the guy you know that was working for ESPN
29:09
Speaker 3: that was able to somehow find a bella danger in
29:11
Speaker 3: the crowd and all of the Miami playoff games.
29:14
Speaker 1: I just that there would be.
29:15
Speaker 3: Certain ones that you are, La, where's Waldough that you're
29:18
Speaker 3: trying to circle. You're definitely looking for her in the crowd,
29:20
Speaker 3: But you know what, she's gonna buy a ticket or what?
29:23
Speaker 3: Because she's not there obviously working, you know, obviously.
29:26
Speaker 2: She's that's an assumption. That's an assumption.
29:28
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, maybe somewhere we're over one hundred days
29:31
Speaker 3: away from the NFL season, she could definitely get hired
29:33
Speaker 3: by somebody.
29:35
Speaker 1: That's true. I guess it's possible.
29:36
Speaker 4: I assume she Sport's still hiring that maybe, and well
29:40
Speaker 4: they're getting the NFL is giving out credentials to anybody.
29:42
Speaker 4: We know that we saw, we saw media day. That's true,
29:45
Speaker 4: so well we did. I mean that the I don't
29:48
Speaker 4: know who those people were. They don't know why I am,
29:51
Speaker 4: so they don't know who you are? Yeah, okay, I
29:53
Speaker 4: admit that. I admit that. So that's a lie.
29:56
Speaker 3: Everybody knows who aremon, Sorry it is that is a
29:59
Speaker 3: that is the eye of of all lies. A hot
30:02
Speaker 3: take drew on the hot take humpte as armand let
30:06
Speaker 3: out the Jason Kidd won there in Dallas. Does this
30:10
Speaker 3: takes this takes the Dallas Mavericks out of any conversation
30:14
Speaker 3: running for or does Jason Kidd find himself a new
30:17
Speaker 3: job where he might be able to reconvene with his
30:19
Speaker 3: old superstar.
30:21
Speaker 2: That's a good question, hard hard to read.
30:24
Speaker 3: But sire, Jerry has long been in love with Gianni's.
30:27
Speaker 3: We only heard that every single off season there in Toronto.
30:30
Speaker 3: You're going to try to lure him there. I did
30:32
Speaker 3: think that there was a good sleeping possibility everybody's talking
30:35
Speaker 3: about Houston. Why on earth would you not want to
30:38
Speaker 3: go somewhere else with those state income tax and that
30:40
Speaker 3: could be Dallas. But not so fast, my friend, as
30:42
Speaker 3: Jason Kidd hit the door on the way out.
30:45
Speaker 4: But I think the U Siri connection is more impactful
30:48
Speaker 4: there than the Kid one. Like there's an assumption that
30:51
Speaker 4: because of what Yanna said when Kid was gone, and
30:54
Speaker 4: there's the report that he tried to save his job.
30:56
Speaker 4: I think he was just a young guy being deferential
30:58
Speaker 4: in processing the change.
30:59
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm not convinced he loved Jason kitt in
31:02
Speaker 1: the way.
31:02
Speaker 4: Some people like it, but of course I'm biased about
31:04
Speaker 4: Jason Kidd as well. But the you jury one is
31:07
Speaker 4: not out of the realm of possibility. If you Jerry
31:09
Speaker 4: always coveted him, and obviously still does. I would think
31:12
Speaker 4: now that he's seen what kind of player he's at,
31:14
Speaker 4: you have the young star and Cooper flag. I mean,
31:17
Speaker 4: anything's possible, you know, I think all possibilities are on deck.
31:21
Speaker 2: Here.
31:21
Speaker 4: Let's see, we've got a hot take from this is
31:25
Speaker 4: Steve hot take. Jake Bowers will replace Yelich's designated hit her.
31:30
Speaker 4: Your thoughts on that, gentleman.
31:32
Speaker 1: No, no, he'll replace somebody as the left fielder.
31:35
Speaker 2: Right, Yelich is still the DH, the primary DH. Yeah,
31:41
Speaker 2: why would you? But would you find a way to
31:43
Speaker 2: get Keith Bowers in the lineup? Right?
31:45
Speaker 3: He's he's finding his way into the left field a
31:47
Speaker 3: lot more opportunities, right. The thought that you're gonna do
31:50
Speaker 3: what you can to have Bowers and Vaughan in the
31:53
Speaker 3: lineup at the same time, that is definitely true. I
31:55
Speaker 3: don't know that it means taking at bats away from
31:58
Speaker 3: Yelich if he's healthy and able to play.
32:01
Speaker 1: If he's healthy and able to play, you got to
32:03
Speaker 1: maximize that.
32:03
Speaker 3: As long as you can, because you don't don't know
32:06
Speaker 3: what that slippery slope could end up yielding.
32:09
Speaker 2: Right, Billy, Time for our current Electric Superhero the Day,
32:12
Speaker 2: brought to us by Current Electric call Current dot com.
32:14
Speaker 2: You see the vans with the superheroes on the side.
32:16
Speaker 2: You see the superheroes inside helping people with their installations
32:20
Speaker 2: and their inspections. Yeah, who's our superhero the day?
32:24
Speaker 3: Well, if you're if you're in New York, Nick, the
32:26
Speaker 3: superhero is James Harden because they could just.
32:28
Speaker 1: Just go right at him.
32:29
Speaker 3: He was our hero on the enemy because he knew
32:32
Speaker 3: that you were getting a dub every single time you
32:34
Speaker 3: were going at him in.
32:34
Speaker 1: The fourth quarter.
32:35
Speaker 3: But it's an easy one. It's a layup. Sorry about it.
32:38
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe you should be harder hitting.
32:41
Speaker 1: It's shake him Miserowski.
32:42
Speaker 3: My man threw seventy four pitches six innings, three hits,
32:45
Speaker 3: four over the minimum, one walk, and was able to
32:49
Speaker 3: work around an egregious era in the first inning. Not
32:52
Speaker 3: let it rattle him, Not let the bad mound rattle him.
32:54
Speaker 3: And if seventy four pitches is the coast and this
32:58
Speaker 3: is the way that you manage a little bit more
33:00
Speaker 3: of his innings through, that might even be better, because
33:03
Speaker 3: there's the thought of a young player. And at some
33:04
Speaker 3: particular point, we can't increase his innings too much. We
33:07
Speaker 3: can't increase his pitch count too much. Well, he just
33:09
Speaker 3: gave you a six efficient innings, gave you a chance
33:11
Speaker 3: to win, got the win, and got up out of
33:14
Speaker 3: there before seventy five. We like that a lot. We
33:16
Speaker 3: also like current electric. We love outdoor lighting in our neighborhoods.

35:07
Speaker 2: our waken Bake story today?
35:08
Speaker 3: Well, I'm stuck in between a couple. Sorry, I just
35:10
Speaker 3: got bad news. The league meetings are going on in Orlando,
35:13
Speaker 3: and apparently the Vikings co owner Mark Wilf told their
35:16
Speaker 3: assembled media that they're ready to start their in person
35:19
Speaker 3: GM interviews. So I guess I didn't get the in
35:21
Speaker 3: person Ah, come on, got stopped to the phone one close.
35:25
Speaker 3: I thought I had a decent chance with this one.
35:27
Speaker 3: I definitely thought that I was getting through on this
35:29
Speaker 3: this process. No, today's waken Bank story comes from Baton Rouge, Louisiana,
35:35
Speaker 3: and not necessarily because Lane Kiffin had the pardon my take,
35:40
Speaker 3: guys doing hot yoga at six point thirty in the
35:42
Speaker 3: morning before being able to tape the interview with them.
35:46
Speaker 1: What's Will Wade doing? What? What are they?
35:50
Speaker 3: What are they doing in Louisiana Because what they've now
35:53
Speaker 3: decided to start doing is Drew. They're just signing NBA
35:58
Speaker 3: players and saying we're going to figure out in the
36:02
Speaker 3: courts if they're going to allow these guys to play,
36:05
Speaker 3: to the point where folks like me following on three
36:10
Speaker 3: right now the best place in college sports. If you're
36:11
Speaker 3: a college sports you gotta be following on three because
36:13
Speaker 3: they're given all this information. Salul Niang was most recently
36:18
Speaker 3: with the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was selected fifty eighth overall
36:21
Speaker 3: by the Calves in the twenty twenty five NBA Draft.
36:24
Speaker 1: He just committed to LSU.
36:26
Speaker 3: They also just got a commitment from a youngster that
36:30
Speaker 3: was at Saint John's previously, R J. Lewis, who had
36:35
Speaker 3: stops at UMass in Saint John's, then the Jazz and Celtics,
36:39
Speaker 3: and now back apparently in college with LSU. So they're
36:44
Speaker 3: just saying we're gonna figure it out. Will Wade said
36:46
Speaker 3: he was going to follow the rules this time. Last
36:49
Speaker 3: time he's at LSU, got into a lot of hot water,
36:52
Speaker 3: a lot of recruiting violations, had his McNee. State made
36:56
Speaker 3: that one kid super famous because he was carrying the boombox,
36:59
Speaker 3: then went to State had one year there was like, hey, Pece, sorry,
37:03
Speaker 3: I'm out. I'm going back with my new girl, my
37:05
Speaker 3: old girlfriend. And Baton Rouge is like, hey, just do
37:08
Speaker 3: whatever you can figure it out. We don't care do
37:11
Speaker 3: whatever he can. We don't care what it looks like.
37:14
Speaker 3: We just hired somebody that was actively trying to win
37:16
Speaker 3: the national title, so we care zero about optics. All
37:19
Speaker 3: we care about is winning and Uliss She was like, yeah,
37:22
Speaker 3: but we're gonna make them tell these guys that they
37:23
Speaker 3: can't play.
37:24
Speaker 1: This is so crazy what this is.
37:26
Speaker 4: But the craziest thing about this is this is probably
37:28
Speaker 4: the first time he's actually followed the rules, like there
37:31
Speaker 4: are no rules in this case. Like in the past,
37:33
Speaker 4: he's definitely broken rules and not cared about it and
37:35
Speaker 4: got in trouble this time. You can't really say that because,
37:38
Speaker 4: like there are really no rules right now in college
37:41
Speaker 4: at basketball when it comes to signing these guys. I mean,
37:44
Speaker 4: I think he's they've got to get a waiver from
37:46
Speaker 4: him or they're gonna have to appeal. He's not eligibility.
37:49
Speaker 4: But it's not like he's breaking rules by paying guy.
37:51
Speaker 2: You know.
37:52
Speaker 4: That's the weirdest thing about this. So it's just a
37:55
Speaker 4: bizarre time in college athletics. There's no question about it
37:58
Speaker 4: is all the way around it. It's just it doesn't
38:00
Speaker 4: look like any semblance of what we think.
38:02
Speaker 2: It should look like historically or traditionally.
38:05
Speaker 1: Grab grab enough guys from the NBA. He drew. They
38:07
Speaker 1: can't stop all of them, right and stop them all.
38:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, slip one through if.
38:11
Speaker 1: We get one in yours.
38:13
Speaker 4: I don't want to hear any players that can play.
38:14
Speaker 4: This is the best time ever to be a pro
38:16
Speaker 4: basket player. You have so many options to make money.
38:19
Speaker 4: It's just unbelievable. Like you can be halfway good, you
38:22
Speaker 4: can try the league, not make it, go back and
38:24
Speaker 4: make big money from college teams. You can add them
38:27
Speaker 4: all bit on you. Basically you can cast these checks.
38:29
Speaker 4: What a time to be a college basketball or yeah,
38:31
Speaker 4: I thought it was going to be best.
38:32
Speaker 3: I thought the best was going to be when they
38:34
Speaker 3: were able to test the market in the NBA and
38:37
Speaker 3: then return to college. Oh forget, and they're like, wait,
38:40
Speaker 3: you can actually get drafted, play on and then go
38:43
Speaker 3: right back.
38:43
Speaker 4: And the deals guys are getting now and the you know,
38:46
Speaker 4: the cabs and everything else just going up.
38:48
Speaker 1: And man, what a time to be able to just.
38:53
Speaker 4: Take advantage and make money, take advantage of the desire
38:56
Speaker 4: of these boosters and alumni bases to win so much
38:58
Speaker 4: that you're just gonna fleece them. The other one came
39:01
Speaker 4: to us and and this this came in a slight
39:04
Speaker 4: second place, but a very very worthy participant. The first
39:09
Speaker 4: five thousand fans at Sunday's Miami Marlins game are going
39:12
Speaker 4: to get a sweet new souvenir and a new giveaway.
39:15
Speaker 4: And first five thousand means everyone's going to get one.
39:18
Speaker 4: The Marlins game. Guys, they have a color changing cup.
39:23
Speaker 4: And did you see the video of.
39:25
Speaker 3: This where they're showing it in terms of like you know,
39:28
Speaker 3: Laye and Vinnie their television broadcast, does it where my
39:32
Speaker 3: man pours the drink in to what a white cup
39:35
Speaker 3: would look like with just the old school Florida Marlins logo,
39:38
Speaker 3: which is way better than whatever the Miami Marlins are
39:40
Speaker 3: doing nowadays logo.
39:42
Speaker 1: The old school one is phenomenal and.
39:44
Speaker 3: As the liquid you know, is into the cup, it
