  Speaker 1: Rolling through a Monday in the good land. It's the
• 0:01
  Speaker 1: huddle Fox sports radio, Wisconsin, Drew, Billy, and Armin coming
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: to you. Nine 20, Milwaukee, 10 70, Madison, everywhere in
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: the art app, streaming live Facebook X and YouTube for
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: the early risers, insomniacs.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: And of course, sociopaths waiting for the health club to
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: open at five.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: The seven o'clock club is open. Welcome in the water
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: is fine. We're having some fun on a game balls
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: and kicks to the balls. Monday, a Packer free Monday.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Thankfully we got the stinking out of the way.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: You're right.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: Thursday night. And then we, We picked through it on,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: it hasn't gotten any better. The more you watch the clips,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: you just wonder how hopeless the situation is. Is there
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: a light at the end of the tunnel? Well, yeah, perhaps,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: because things, you know, NFL, not for long.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Not for long. Your lot in life is not where
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: you will sit for the rest of the season.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: And if I had told you a month ago that
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: three games into the season, the Packers would have the
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: same record as the.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Rams, you just said, I'll take it. I'll sign up
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: for that. I'll sign up for that.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: They're one and two, obviously headed in different directions and
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: like different stratas but the standings especially in wayne larry
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: will tell us like he's told us for years like
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: it takes a month to figure out you know where
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: you are and then you start the season like the
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: over the first four games or so i'm i'm sorry
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: and i'll i i will gladly raise my hand if
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: i'm wrong in the same way that i ripped the
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: guys who said that the rams are going to go
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: 17 to know The Vikings are not going to go 17-0.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: No. In fact, they beat Tampa yesterday, and the Packers
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: are going to Tampa. It's the non-Baker. Good time to
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: go to Tampa.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: The Vikings put up 230 yards on offense, and they
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: converted two third downs and won the game.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Kyler Murray looked awful.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: And the only teams with those stats since 2024 were 1-32.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: The only victory was the Packers against the Jets just
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: a week ago.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: It makes, you know, it makes you.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: So that's horrific.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: And they're winning with their defense and I get it.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: They're averaging, they're allowing like 10 points a game, but
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: that's not sustainable.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah. If you're going to do that for 17 games,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: good luck. Yeah. That's not sustainable.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: And so the Vikings are in some ways still a
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: mirage because their quarterback thing is they're there.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: They're overcoming quarterback play. People have said it for a
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: long time, uh, drew and, and I get it. I
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: think it's true at a point in the season, but the, uh,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: You're you are what your record says you are really
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: rings more true in late October, early November.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: When you've been able to put something together right now,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: a two and one, a three and oh and oh
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: and three and one and two is not going to
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: fully define or tell the real story as to what.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: kind of a team. I'm like, I mean, Carolina's one
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: and two. They got blown out by Chicago in week
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: number one. They looked like the greatest thing on turf
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: against the Atlanta Falcons made you believe the Atlanta Falcons
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: were one notch above a CFL team rolling into Lambeau field.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: And instead they won five games. They both have the
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: same record last year at eight and nine. So it's just,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: The number in front of a team right now is
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: going to give you a belief as to exactly who
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: they are. It's just not going to tell a full case.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: And watching a lot of games yesterday, I think the
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: adage remains very much true. You're not as good as
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: your record will tell you, and you're definitely not as
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: bad as your record will tell you, because there are
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: some teams out there that looked like they could be
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: a lot of different things on any given Sunday.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Packers are going in the face of Buccaneers. What's more
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: dangerous than an 0-3 team at home? With a backup quarterback.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: That 0-3 team is one game out of first place.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, one out.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Right in the thick. And with the.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Feeling that they're desperation, they're not knowing. The reality is
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: you just don't know even what teams are going to
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: give you every week.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Panthers, Saints, and the Falcons who just took it to
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: the Packers are all 1-2. And the Bucs are 0-3.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: All teams that probably, I don't know how the Panthers
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: feel about this last weekend, but all teams that probably
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: feel like they could be better, should be better. I
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: know the saints feel like they're a couple that got
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: away with the.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Saints have played three of the most entertaining games in
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: the NFL this year already.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: And they probably deserve to be at least two in one,
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: but what does that even mean? You know, that the
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: margin of winning and losing is so thin, you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: you could argue one way or the other.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: And that's the thing.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: There are teams that might have a record that, that
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: they believe in themselves a lot more, but the record's
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: not good and vice versa. And I think when you
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: had to look at what the Packers are going to
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: face next week, you know, With all the troubles they've had,
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: with how bad things have looked, the reality is if
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: you go into Tampa and you beat a team without
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: their starter, you find a way to win.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: You're 2-2.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: And a lot worse can be going on in the
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: NFL by being 2-2. And, yes, still trying to figure
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: out who you are, how you can become good, how
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: you can maintain positive play, how you can build an identity.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: There's time for all that. But getting wins early in
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: the year is important because so much is unpredictable.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: It's not always about who you play, it's when you
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: play them, and very much so could be playing two
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: backup quarterbacks coming up in the next two weeks. Very likely.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: The last time they played one, it didn't turn out well, right?
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Because I still believe maybe the Packers win if Kyler
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: Murray's still in there based on how he played, you know?
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Could have, yeah. Yeah, you're right.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: The traveling west to east thing hit the Seahawks a
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: little bit, right? I mean, they get Donald back and
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: he throws the pick six, hit Tip of the cap
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: to the Commanders, but that was a 2-0 against 0-2.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, 100%. And one that's at home, their home opener.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: And again, your season's on life support. Marcus Mariota is
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: going to lead you. I was going to say game
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: ball to Marcus Mariota. Give the gray-haired man a good
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: game ball here. Three tutties. three tutties, 19 at 31,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: and just put his absolute body on the line a
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: couple of times. The one run that he has diving
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: in between two guys looked like he was trying to
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: recapture a little bit of that Oregon glory. There are
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: certain guys that you go back to a time and
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: place in your life When you watch them play Marcus Mariota,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: I instantly get teleported back to when I was in
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: college watching him in college. He was one of the
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: coolest guys to watch at that exact moment. And to
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: see how his entire football life has played out. He
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: did the quarterback show. Yeah. He was the first one
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: for the quarterback show to not go the right way.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: That's right. He was the guy he left, right? Well,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: he was five games in and he gets hurt. And
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: then they're like, well, you can hang out here. And
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: he's like, no, I think I'm going to be off.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: And then, you know, five episodes in, they had five
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: episodes where you didn't hear from him. He went and
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: had a baby and he's like, all right, peace. And
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: you thought that might be his career. He was the
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: starter and the guy, the captain for the Tennessee Titans.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: He gets hurt. And they have the best season they've
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: had since they went to the Super Bowl because they
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: had a 10-point lead in the AFC title game. He's
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: lived a wild NFL life. But one of the more
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: beloved guys in every locker room he goes into. And
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: when you play a game like yesterday as a backup quarterback,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: you kind of see why. Still trying to write that
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: last chapter. And I guess that's what's impressive about some
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: of these stories. Yeah, going west to east.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think even in a loss or in
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: a win, I'm sorry, you saw the effects of it
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: with that Buffalo Chargers game. Because I just feel like
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: the Chargers would have found a way to win that
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: game if it wasn't in Buffalo.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know why.
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: But, like, you get five takeaways. You have an early
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: lead on Josh Allen. But, man, maybe because they had
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: to go all the way to Buffalo, they run on gas.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know. But.
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: I think even in that situation, there might be an
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: example of that West to East thing being a struggle.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: They also just might be bad. I think that's part
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: of it. I mean, they just might be bad.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Might be.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: And I know that's going to really, really hurt a
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: lot of folks that want them to be the Super
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Bowl favorites. Chargers might be bad. And Josh Allen, why
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: he is.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: The most exciting quarterback to watch. I'm not going to
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: say he's the best quarterback going because there is a
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: guy that wears number 15 for Kansas City that plays who's.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: Like all of a sudden.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Oh, by the way, he does play. He's still playing.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: Get him in as a backup.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: But it speaks to why Brett Favre pulled on the
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: heartstrings the way he did because nobody has more fun
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: and gives you more consternation watching and investing on his
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: team than Josh Allen. It's true. My man puts the
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: ball out in harm's way like nobody's business, Drew. He's like, whatever.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: We'll figure it out. We'll get it back. We'll have fun.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Time for a little Who's Hot, Who's Not brought to
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: us by Donovan Jorgensen. Heating and cooling the HVAC experts
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: in the area. Check them out at donovanjorgensen.com.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Billy, who do you got? I've been waiting to say
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: this one for a while.
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: Who's Hot?
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence, 19 of 29 for three TDs yesterday. And
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Jacoby Myers had seven of those grabs and a touchdown
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: as the Jacksonville Jaguars throttle The fighting Racines, I mean
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: the New England Patriots, 35-6. Three QBs, or three people
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: throw passes, I should say, for the New England Patriots
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: in the game. Tommy DeVito finally comes out and graciously
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: pulls Drake May, who is in the not category. 14-25 yesterday,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: two picks, no touchdowns, sacked three times. His numbers on
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: the year currently, one touchdown, and that was in week one,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: I believe in the first half of their week. So
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: he's now gone five halves without throwing a touchdown and
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: has thrown six picks in those combined. Cause it has
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: been the most disastrous of starts for the Superbowl runners
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: up a year ago in the not category.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: And how about Trevor Lawrence, Billy heaven? You're back.
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: You know, you've been a guy that's been defending Trevor Lawrence,
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: believing in him for a while.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: And now you can say, you weren't wrong.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: I do have to say.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Laying down at the one yard line with eight minutes
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: left was a little gauche, especially with a freaking plus 275.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Anytime touchdown ticket. Are you kidding me? That was point
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: shaving and prop manipulation.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: In real time billy oh my god i was that
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: made me say what the hell I've never seen that.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I was so mad. Because you know that I was
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: hammering that touchdown. You're up huge. Score the touchdown. What
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: are you doing? He is a nice young man. He
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: didn't want anybody rubbing their face in it. Wanted to
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: get somebody else to score. Right? Wanted to get somebody
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: else to score. Chris Rodriguez, come on down.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Malik Beasley would like a word.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, other than that, I mean, I'm not a
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: conspiracy theorist. I don't smoke the grass from the grassy knoll.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: But I'm sorry. When I saw that, I'm like, what
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: are we doing? And the worst thing is that the
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: next play out of the timeout, I wonder if in
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: the timeout conversation, they're like, these a-holes are really calling
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: timeouts with eight minutes to go. All right, hand it off.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: We're scoring.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Hand it off.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: We're scoring now. We tried to be nice to you guys.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: I just have never seen that. I saw no benefit or...
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: It's not something that's even discussed. It was weird.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: I totally admit that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's discussed for Dabo Sweeney because we win with
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: class at Clemson. Goodness, that wasn't class. That was just.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Weird as hell. Is that like Favre laying down for three?
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: No, it's worse than that. You heard me. How about
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: who's hot? Todd Munkin in the Cleveland Browns. Now, is
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: that a game ball, too, or no? Just a who's hot.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: That's a who's hot.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: Who's hot? I mean, well, he could give you.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I don't deserve a game ball. I don't know that
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: they deserve a game ball. They had 11 points in
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: the fourth quarter. But Todd Munkin is living his absolute
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: best life. Drew, you wait until you're 60 years old
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: to get your first head coaching job in the world.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: And everybody is thinking. Oh, he's a seat filler, right? Yeah,
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: we'll wait until the next 30-year-old guy that we actually
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: wanted to hire. We can feel better about doing it.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: He's come in here. He's giving high fives to everybody
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: in the dog pound as they're running around Cleveland yesterday.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: That was amazing. That was a heck of a win
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: and a cool story for somebody who has served a
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: lot in the NFL, finally getting his chance.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Well, my favorite spinoff of this is the discussion.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Who's hot? Who's not? Who's less not?
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Who's more not hot? Who's more not hot? Which Harbaugh brother?
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Because John lost his quarterback and his best edge guy.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, best defensive player, Burns. In back-to-back weeks.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: And now his brother, of course, has got this Super
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Bowl team and a historically good quarterback who's struggling.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: And I got my aviator wearing offensive coordinator who was
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: supposed to be the whiz kid and game changer. And
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel's over here like, Hey, I don't know. I'm trying.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: I'm just trying. I'm doing whatever I can. It's not
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: my fault. Yeah, I would definitely rather be surprisingly. I'd
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: rather be Jim Harbaugh because one, you get to live
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: in L.A. instead of New York. True. That one's going
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: to be great. But then I wouldn't have to watch
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: what this Jameis Winston experience is going to be for
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: 14 more games. Oh, my God. Because that was I
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: know they were one of the only games actually affected
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: drew by the Northeaster that was rolling through weather wise.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: But goodness gracious, I don't know that that game was
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: going to be any prettier in sunny and 75-degree heat.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: That was a game only a sportsbook could love, and
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: it lived up to it.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: Do you think if the Giants will sign a quarterback
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: or sniff around, are they just going to roll with
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: Jameis Winston? Because they did win. I mean, maybe you
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: think to yourself, well, we could try and say. I
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: saw Russell Wilson sitting there on the dais, on the desk.
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: you know, and with that cool haircut and I'm just thinking,
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: I don't think he's got much left, but I don't know.
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: You know, you have, you have to wonder, our team's
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: going to say, maybe we should try. And cause Jamis Winston,
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: I'm not really sure if he's going to be the one.
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: And if you want to salvage it, but maybe there's
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: nobody else out there that would help you.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: All right. That is a who's hot. Who's not.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: And I, let's just go ahead and award our current
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: electric superhero of the day right now. Cause I gotta
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: go with Ms. The exclamation point on his season. I
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: knew Murph was going to go get him in the
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: middle of an inning so he could have the ovation,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: tip the cap. It played out perfectly. They get him
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the big lead. He's mowing them down. His last batter's
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: a punch out. His ERA is 1.80, and it's his
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: 250-second strikeout.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: He's going to be the fourth Cy Young winner in
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Brewers history. That's remarkable. Joining Raleigh Fingers, Pete Vukovic, and
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Corbin Burns. Spectacular.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's a franchise-altering guy. generational player at this point.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And Drew, that's the, that's the best way of
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: putting it because when you look at how they have
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: built up their farm system, built the organization, yes, they
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: got a lot of really good players. They got a
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: lot of really good players. I think they've got a
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: couple of stars that are start to build in and
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: bud into them, but for it to get accelerated to
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: this point, you need somebody in their second or third
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: year to as simplistic as it sounds, to walk in
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and be the best player at their position. The teams
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: that actually go off and win it, they kind of
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: have one of those guys, and you right now have
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: one and a half, because if Churio gets a full season...
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: I think he's going to be in that conversation. What
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: he did missing a month is pretty impressive. Pretty insane.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: He's got a chance to win a gold glove in
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: left field. And for this, now you have the best
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: weapon and the best player at that position in the sport.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: And for him to be as dominating and as humble
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: as he is, it just fits so perfectly into a
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Brewers model.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: And, you know, Freddy Peralta, for all of his charms,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: and we appreciated him here, like Chris Hook said it
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: last year going into the playoffs, it was like, well,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: is it going to be Freddy?
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: And then we'll figure it out.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It's a bit more structured now with Miz and Henderson
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: and Gasser and may like, they got more options and
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: more depth there than they have in recent years.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: And you know, if, if Woodruff had pitched last year,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: it would have been different. Could have, but you now
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: let that door open for how many years, right. And
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: you've been hoping and waiting for that to be the case.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: How about a, how about a game ball to a
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: one Kyle Harrison? I don't know that it's enough. I
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: don't know that I would trust it, but the two
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: innings and to go get the win on, on Friday
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: or Saturday night, I mean, after Dustin may end the
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: pitch as confidently and in the zone as he did, man,
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: that's a great, if those are the last innings he
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: throws drew great way to go into the office. I
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: didn't think his stuff was that great, but he did.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, He did it. At least you get a
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: clean slate going into the offseason. That's right. Something to
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: build on.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: And he sounded pretty chipper about where his process is going.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: I know Hunter sent along some audio.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: We didn't play it.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Maybe we'll play it as we go along today or
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: this week. we'll play it for sure.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: We'll get some of it in there, but he sounded
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: pretty chipper about his process and how he thinks he's,
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: you know, he's like, it hasn't been fun, but I've
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: been trying to work through it every day and get
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: back to a place where I'm focusing on my process
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: and not the results, which I think is good. I
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: think it's good to forget about results when you're not
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: having good ones. That's a good, that's a good strategy
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: to have, but.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: I think it's, you're right.
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: I don't think it means anything for now and for
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: the playoffs, but I think it's a good sign for
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: him kind of heading into what he is going to
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: be a big off season for him to get stuff
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: figured out.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: So, Without a doubt, that's good stuff.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Miz is our superhero. Callcurrent.com, the website for Current Electric.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: The place to go for generator conversation or your general
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: safety because in the month of September, their fall special
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: going on for the safety inspection, it's dwindling down. This
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: is the last week of September. As Drew said, we're
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: about to be on to October. So callcurrent.com and get
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: on the schedule. So some history here from Sarah Langs.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: I love Sarah Langs' account.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Miz led the league in strikeouts and led all qualifiers
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: in ERA and opposing.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: Batting average was 157. Sounds like a Cy Young to me.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Since 1950, four pitchers have led Major League in all
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: three of those for a season.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: 1986, Mike Scott. 1979, J.R. Richard.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: And 1965, Sandy Koufax. What are those guys I've heard of?
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: You never heard of Mike Scott or J.R.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Richard? They were both really good pitchers.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: I did not.
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: I heard of Michael Scott.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Mike Scott and J.R. Richard were the Houston cool unis,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: the Technicolor, you know. Oh, those were?
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: Also, Jason Stark did a phenomenal piece on The Athletic
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: about Miz entitled The Meaning of the Miz. About his
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: eye popping 100 miles an hour, he said, starts it out, Drew.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Every once in a while in sports, a human comes
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: along who is different from all other humans. Has it
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: truly hit us yet? that Jacob Mizorowski is one of
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: those freaks of nature. Well, cause I think there are
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: some around the sports landscape that might be more, uh,
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: more welcomed and, uh, hit by that realization come October.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Who was it that made the suggestion that somebody was
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: interviewing Murph and they said it was like the, he's the,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: he's like Roger Bannister cracking the four minute mile like Murph.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, Ms. Cause of what he's done.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Well, here's the stat for you.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: San Diego pitchers, Mason Miller generally, combined to throw 753
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: pitches of 100 miles or more. That's second in the
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: major leagues. Miz threw 1,115 pitches of over 100 miles.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: An hour. The Detroit Tigers as a team had five. Yeah,
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: I think everybody would like to throw 100. Yeah. I
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: think a lot of people would like to throw 100.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: The thought that we can all just throw 100 might
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: not be real. 1,115 pitches of 100 miles an hour
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: or more. No one's ever come close to that. That's
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Babe Ruth. When Babe Ruth was hitting more home runs
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: than entire teams.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: That's what Miz is doing.
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: And I think that's what we've come to realize with
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: Miz's kind of transcendence here is that it's not just
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: about being a great pitcher and getting outs and winning games.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: He's doing all that.
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: But it's also the limit to what she can push
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: human performance and what we've seen and be a spectacle,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: athletic spectacle every time he's out there makes him more
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: than just a great pitcher. It makes him a star
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: to be seen every time. It was sort of like that.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: You know, he's like, how far will Jordan jump?
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: How old is he?
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: This is the same thing with Miz. It's like, how
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: hard can he throw? How fast can he throw? It's
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: a show unto itself, which is great that he's on
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: our team.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: All right, guys, we're giving Wynn the day off. We'll
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: talk to him on Friday. We didn't have that confirmed
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: with him, so we'll get a lot more of these
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: games and kicks in. We have a lot of great
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: texts in.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Great texts here.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: More game balls and kicks in your texts coming up.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: You're in the huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Drew, Billy,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: and Armin bringing it to you. Game balls and kicks
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: the balls.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: 877-794-1973.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Get to the NicoletLaw.com talk and text line. Get us
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: your game balls and your kicks. We'll have some fun
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: with that. A lot of good texts coming in. And
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Derek and Whitewater with one that I really enjoyed when
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: we were talking about trying to figure out when the
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Brewers game is going to be on Saturday.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Derek said, I'll tell you what time the game is
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: going to be. I'll find out when my daughter's game
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: is on Saturday. Then I can guarantee you the Brewers
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: game will start within the hour that that was. That's
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: first pitch because it's an hour and a half. It's
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: only an hour and a half in slinger away. So
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: whenever her game will be, I'll miss the entire thing
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: going to and from. It does feel like that will
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: be the case for many folks because as October turn,
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: as the calendar flips to October, first off, there are still.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: And it's really, really rude and inconsiderate. There are still
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: sick individuals that are deciding to have October weddings, right?
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: Every single year, every single year, there's people that wake up,
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: look at the entire college football slate schedule and say,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: you know what? Yeah, you should. They say October 17th
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: feels like a great day to have a wedding. June
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: 17th would be a great day to have a wedding.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: May 17th would be a great day to have a wedding.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: October 17th is a great day to sit on your
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: rear end, eat chili, and watch football. However, there's going
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: to be a lot of folks that realize My wife
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: really thinks that we're going to go to the pumpkin
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: patch at one o'clock.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: I mean, that was what I was about to say.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: We're really going for a hayride at noon.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: You think you got something going on with a weekend
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: and Saturday and baseball playoffs.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: How many different youth football flag football games do I
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: have starting at two in the afternoon? So there's going
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: to be plenty of conflicts that roll in here for
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: NLDS game number one on Saturday.
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: And maybe that was my game ball as well to the, well,
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: I don't know if it's a game ball or a
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: kick to the ball, depending on your perspective. Oh, Prince
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: too was the pumpkin patch. It's pumpkin patch season. And
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: I'm telling you, there's no more like slap in the face.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Like you think it's going to happen on weekend.
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: No, we're going to the pumpkin patch. We're traveling.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: We're loading up everybody to wait in line to overpay
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: for a gourd that frankly, nobody's actually eating or doing
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: anything with. No one does anything with a pumpkin except
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: display it.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: And you're going to overpay.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: You don't roast the pumpkin seeds.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: Well, actually, There is an Armenian dish involving a pumpkin.
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: I can't say I make it, though. All right.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: It's a very famous.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Sounds like you're running from the ground.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: But I'm just I'm sorry.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: Little private equity gets involved in these scams with these
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: pumpkin patches.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: It's it is a moneymaker now. And it's it's going crazy.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: And you know what?
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: We're not picking apples either.
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: We can get them in the store. You've made an
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Armenian reference.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Brings to mind game ball to our pal Matt Vaskers.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: Oh, let's go, Matty.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: Matty Vee. More Prince.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: Come on.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: We'll be in the chair with the Prince every time.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: Matty V will be in the chair for the first
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: playoff game. He's got Phillies Braves and NBC Peacocks got
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: the first round.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: The wildcard round. So they get this whole week. Okay. Okay.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: And what they're doing is I think pretty cool. They
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: have the play-by-play guy who can be generally a neutral
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: guy and then an analyst from each of the teams.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: So Vaskirjian is working with John Kruk and CJ Nitkowski.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: And also Joey Votto's doing the inside the pitch analysis.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: So that's cool. They got that series.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: White Sox, Astros, they got Tom McCarthy with Steve Sohn
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: and Jeff Blum as the analysts. So you're mixing in
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: the local guys. Now it's like they've been doing that with,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Deli was on.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: I was going to say they've been doing some of
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: that with their weekly ones, which I appreciate.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Red Sox, Yankees gets, I think, the goat here in
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: this round, Jason Panetti, who's awesome.
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: And he's with Lou Merloni of the Red Sox and Girardi. Oh,
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: that's going to be good. That's a great. And then
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: Cubs Padres.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: They got Dave Fleming on play by play with Cubs
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: analyst Jim Deshaies and our buddy Mud Grant from.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: The good one. And that's cool. And Dave Fleming just
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: got he was just on the call for the Badgers
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: victory against the Penn State Nittany Lions. So he is
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: all peacock all the time. I like that. That's a
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: good one. we should probably, uh, we could talk to
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Lev this week. Cause he just saw Sparty in Nebraska.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Didn't he? I was going to say he did.
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: He got up close and personal. Look at, uh, what
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: that looked like up in there in East Lansing. I'd
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: have to try to talk to them. They've done a
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: really good job. Peacock has of their baseball coverage. This
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: is year number one. Correct me if I'm wrong. Yeah. Um,
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: as they took it over from ESPN, they, this is
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: the Sunday night baseball package that then built in the
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: first round that ESPN used to always have the playoffs. And, uh,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: they've taken run with it. I think their broadcast is good. Also,
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: their cameras are just good. Like the NBC broadcast of
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: Sunday night football, Sunday night football never felt bigger than
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: Monday night football until NBC got the rights. And then
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: they made it such a spectacle and such a good
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: show that it does. I think it feels like the
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: premier game of the week. It's the most baseball. They
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: did a good one too.
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: They have the highest ratings for sure. At least they
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: did consistently. I'm assuming they still do Sunday night football.
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: And a lot of that is because you're right, Billy,
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: the NBC quality of, of the production.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: Couple of kicking the balls to our friend Marcus in Iowa.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: When it rains, it pours. He had shouted us out
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: that he had the overtime investment yesterday, paying out 12
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: to 1 for the Ravens and Cowboys. lamar jackson seven
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: seconds for real reps really were ready to go home
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: no more free football here tonight that was a wild
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: finish uh for the cowboys and michigan.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: Western michigan kind of billy you think situation or not
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: as much.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: No because i thought there was a second like i
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: when when he went down it there's clearly a second
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: on the tv copy right now maybe there is only
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: one clock in the nfl the that's the problem we
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: didn't know that we have our own clock that you
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: guys just aren't privy to in college football that's actually
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: been happening for a long time you guys are idiots
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: for not realizing it that's how we got shamed in
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: the michigan situation so much different here but goodness gracious
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: dallas uh dallas was a lot of people's uh pick
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: to click in the off season as one of the
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: sneaky contenders they sit here at one and two as
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: well and I know there's no style points, and you
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: absolutely feel better if you're a Cowboys fan than a
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Packers fan right now, but they're still sitting in the
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: same boat, and that was a game that, man, Drew,
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: it felt like they had that thing easily won and
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: just handed it right back over there to Tyler Lupin.
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: Wild.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Absolutely wild.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: You know, Dak's in a situation, again, just like Burrow,
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: scoring a lot, defense isn't helping him.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's worth a game ball, but J.J.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Watt continues to improve.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: One, two, three. pretty good he is good and uh
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: he's he's got a different perspective than most guys in
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: the chair right like obviously a defensive perspective is different
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: but playing in the trenches you hear just it feels
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: like he watches the game a little bit different than
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: it's always Brady Romo Aikman understandably so yeah you want
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: to hear it from the quarterback side but it's cool
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: to hear it from somebody that's watching a different spot.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Agree uh kick to the balls to injuries in general
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: Them when it rains it pours yeah.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: Uh former badger leo chanel that was a scary one
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: he uh is season ending neck surgery this morning but
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: he has a feeling in his extremities and is expected
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: to make a full recovery.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: Man that was terrifying that was terrifying uh when whenever
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: you see the backboard get brought out you know it's
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: bad but then when they showed the highlight of it
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: you could tell like that literally broke his neck a
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: fracture in his neck Just it's every reason why when
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: they do the heads up football tutorials and as this game,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, it is going to be the most dangerous
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: of the games that you're playing outside of hockey. It's
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: the most it's the most dangerous that you're playing. But
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: there's ways to make it safer. And that's just bang, bang.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: The guy's been playing hard his entire life. And first
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: year with with Washington tough, especially that day, they had
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: such a great win. For the commanders, for that to
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: go down was awful to see.
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, glad to hear he's expected to be okay and
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: all that stuff, because obviously scary. The stark reminder and
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: the stark reality, the unfortunate reality of this game.
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: It's a violent game, and these things are going to happen.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: And, you know, I know there's been a lot of
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: conversation this week about quarterbacks and when they go down
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: and baiting and things like that. You know, we do
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: our best to make it safer, but it's going to
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: be a violent game at the end of the day,
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: no matter what. That's just the nature of it.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: We mentioned the Brewers broadcast.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: It was the last of the year for Brewers TV
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: yesterday for Rock and B.A. and Sophia and Dilly and
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Vinny and the crew. It was also the last game
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: for a bunch of people. Mike Krukow said goodbye to
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: the Giants booth at Howie Rose with the Mets.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Rick Riz with the.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Mariners has been there 40 years with the voice of
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the Pacific Northwest baseball.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Tommy Hutton. who has been with the Marlins forever. He
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: was Len Casper's partner when Len Casper did. Wow, that
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: long ago. Holy cow. A lot of the guys, you know, the.
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Old heads are exiting the stage, making room for the
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: newer people. But so game ball to all those guys, man.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: You just don't bond. You bond with a baseball announcer
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: more than just about anything else. As much as people
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: love Wayne and LePay and they look forward to it,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: that's once a week.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Those guys are there every day, hundreds. 162. It's a
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: different type of relationship that fans have with a football
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: team and a baseball team. And that daily.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Reminder and just friendship uh is one that you miss
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: when they go away and man i watched uh i
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: watched holly howie rose who i sadly had to hear
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: and it made me sick how many times i had
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: to hear his call of pete alonso's home run uh
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: a couple of years ago on espn because that was
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: the only time they decided to watch any baseball was
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: when the mets were in the playoffs shockingly so um
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: But I've watched the video of him. They're chanting his
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: name at Citi Field. There's like 15,000 people there because
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: it's last week. It's in the middle of an NFL game, Drew.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: They're absolute warm ass.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: Here's how he rose. Finish it out. A great career.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Just wiping tears away from his eyes saying and the
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Mets are once again getting drummed seven to two here tonight.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: So a great, great finish to the career.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: We forgot to mention to Dolph that College Game Day
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: is going to Iowa City.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: First time in 20 years. First time in 20 years.
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: A non-SEC location. Who'd have thunk? Correct. For a game
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: that's on CBS. It's going to be such an awesome
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: atmosphere down there. And that was one of the reasons
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: why I wanted Iowa to win it so bad. Because
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: you could tell that that was going to be a
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: game that's in there. And also, you look at in
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: the day and age of college football that it's, well,
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: you always go and get the next best thing. Shout
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: out to Iowa Hawkeye fans being good with where they
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: were at and being happy, being good. And now what
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: that recipe for a long time was. is you'll have
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: your flare-up years where all of a sudden you'll have
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: a chance, if you beat one to two of those
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: important teams, where you could stumble yourself into not only
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: a playoff berth, but they could find themselves in Indianapolis.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: The way that their schedule breaks out, they have three really,
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: really tough games, one of which was going to Ann Arbor.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: The other one is hosting... Ohio state. Now they'll get
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: the huge pop for it coming up this week. And then,
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: you know, you let the chips fall where they may,
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: if they win the games that they're expected to sadly,
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Wisconsin is one of those games that they're expected to,
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: but going to Washington doesn't look nearly as difficult as
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Minnesota just rode the boat out there in Seattle. So
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: you don't know when you do in the preseason, everybody
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: looks at these schedules drew and says, well, this team
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: could make the playoff because of their schedule. A couple
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: of those teams lost this weekend. One of which was
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: Penn state. Many people thought that they were a dark
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: horse team to make the college football playoff because they
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: just penciled in all of these wins that you just
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: should have. Wisconsin luckily able to throw a huge wrench
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: into those plans and probably a big fan were the
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: sports books of that because Penn State, the highest ticketed
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: team on terms of investments made to make the college
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: football playoff.
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so you have to think that they're loving that indeed.
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: And yeah, you're right about Iowa. I mean, in a
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: day and age where we're quick to jump right away
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: after every loss to, well, he's not the one, he's
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: not the guy, or he isn't it. I'm sure over
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: the years, Iowa fans have been about Kirk Ferentz, right?
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: Once upon a time, and there's been ups and downs,
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: but they've stayed steady with a guy that's been good.
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: And all of a sudden, he's, you know... become their
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: Lombardi in a lot of ways. I mean, maybe not
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: with the national results, but with a really good career
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: and a legacy of winning and an identity that they're
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: proud of. And I, and yeah, I mean, the kind
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: of the anomaly in sports these days.
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: So you have to give them credit for that.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: That, that game played out perfectly for Iowa though, too.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: You just punt your way into a good field position
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: and finish it off. How about David on a great
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: text here? He goes, you know, that there's a way
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: to work around these pumpkin patch and wedding conflicts, right?
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: You download the iHeartRadio app and listen to the games
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: available with an AirPod. Oh, now you're talking.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: Come on now.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: Yes, David, you're right. However, I just can't in good, well, conscience, absolutely.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: I don't feel bad about doing it. I'm just not
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: good in practice when I have to go up there
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: and give the speech to be listening to the game
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: because I will all of a sudden be... Welcome, dearly beloved.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: First in 10 Wisconsin at the 35-yard line as we
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: gather here. Son of a gun.
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: It's a little different.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: You just dangerously could blend it in there.
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a little different.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: All of a sudden, you get a freestyle of LaPay
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: during the best man speech. Might not be the best
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: thing to go about. Although it might be better than
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: I had planned.
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: Now, if you got him to do the speech for you,
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: now we're talking.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Now you're talking.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: Not that you can't. I'm just saying it'd be cool here.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: It would be. Yeah.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: I'm going to have a conversation. We're going to have
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: a conversation about that. Send a text.
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: Love it.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Love it. All right.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: I'm going to come back and wrap things up on
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: this Monday. It's been a robust Monday.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Fun. Non-pack. It's fun when the Packers don't lose a
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: game to do a show. It makes it a lot better,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: doesn't it? Yeah, absolutely.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: We're back at it. Closing ceremonies next year in the huddle.

  Speaker 2: There's no chance in hell that I was watching any
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: kind of golf going on this weekend.
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: I can't believe people are watching that.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: Really disappointed in the Americans. Didn't sound like we played
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: very well throughout the entire event.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: But didn't they win? Didn't they win?
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: I think so, but it sounded like to start out
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: of the gates, they were very disappointed. It was a
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: Badgers-like comeback. Yeah, they were down like 7-3 right out
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: of the gates. It was garbage to start. I think
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: they freight-trained in this President's Cup so many times. 11th
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: straight win that they had. That they're like, well, what
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: the heck? What are we doing here? This shouldn't even
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: be a competition. And also, kicking the balls to NBC,
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: because I'm pretty sure that kicked the Badgers... off of
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: the NBC Sports Extra.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they won nine of the 12 singles matches, which
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: is unheard of.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: There we go. Come on now, USA. Let's go. I
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: can't say I was that didn't even it was Jacob Bridge.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: I forgot it was this didn't even factor in at
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: all to possibly get a view.
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: If that makes me a bad professional, so be it.
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: I just it wasn't even fine.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: Armin. No, because it didn't even register into like maybe
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: put it in the quad box. You got basically eight
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: boxes up there with a pair of YouTube TVs rolling.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: And there was no chance that thing was factoring in.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: So golf. August. Yes. That transport that to the end
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: of August when we're sitting here waiting for something to
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: watch and patiently waiting for football, because then we could
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: actually enjoy it and watch it. And it. get numbers
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: maybe a.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: Race i was interested in quick game ball to uh
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: the polish sausage who also clinched his season-long championship i
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: don't remember the polish sausage i feel has been disrespected
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: over the years you know the hot dog is the
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: hot guy you know the brats the old classic you
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: know the chorizos the new guy the block you know
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: give give credit to that that shady.
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: Guy in the sunglasses the polish sausage.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: Who won 21 to 20 over the chorizo clinched it
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: in the final year. Chorizo had 120? Yeah, Chorizo had 120.
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: Hunter had all the coverage.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: I was just going to say, Drew, I'm glad that
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: registered in your mind first. I would have thought no
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: chance that Chorizo had that close.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: I think the biggest margin of victory I've ever seen
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: was on Friday night. Chorizo won by about 40 yards.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: Man, with that hat, that is impressive. That's the heaviest thing.
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Chorizo.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: You really got to have a good forward lean. You
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: know what?
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry. The Chorizo won the race to have 16.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: My bad.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: The Chorizo had 16. The Italian had 20. Fake news.
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: So the Polish beat Italian by virtue.
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: Of the Chorizo winning. So a little bit, I was
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: wrong there. Chorizo had 16 wins. You're still a good amount, though.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, decent amount. 16 more times than I pick them
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: to win. Yeah, I mean, when when I'm there at
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: the game and everybody puts up their finger, you know,
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: which finger are you taking for which sausage? I don't
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: see anybody picking the chorizo.
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: No, I'm old school. I'm picking the broad every time.
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: I'm just like that. But I mean, it's some soul
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: searching in the offseason for the broad who only had
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: 11 wins, took fifth this year.
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: I mean, can we get back to the old, you know,
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: brought where you were?
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: You were the old time dominant Green Bay Packers type guy,
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: you know?
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: I look at the broad as the Yankees.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: There were a lot of people that said the only
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: thing good that happened at Lambeau Field on Thursday night
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: was that Miller Lite won the race to the cooler.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: I love it. Because legendary moments start with the light.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, it makes sense that that would happen. Trying
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: to sprint to the cooler. Miller Lite is always moving
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: pretty well. Very well played. Well played, Miller Lite. All right,
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: anything else we need to wrap up today?
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: Nothing.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: We covered a lot of ground. I was going to
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: say the only thing that was Packers-related over the weekend, Drew,
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: that I saw... Was Ian Rappaport saying yesterday on NFL
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Network that the NFL is officially requested to view. the
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs video while he remains on the commissioner's exempt list. Well, yeah.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: Some of these parts of the report, there's nothing new
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: to it, but that is the hurdle that's got to
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: happen before we hear anything new on the running back situation.
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: I'm just resigned to it.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a six game because that seems
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: like the boilerplate stock. Like it's going to be six games.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: Do you think we'll know it before week six? Like,
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: do you think they'll sooner rather than later say it's
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: six games or after week six, they'll be like, all right,
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: now you're off. And then he hasn't been suspended. Right.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: So I think he'll just be removed from the exemplist.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: And I don't think we'll know, but it'll be like
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: that week.
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: It'll be that after six games. You're off the exemplist.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: That makes sense. So then they don't have to suspend him,
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: but they have, I mean, he's been getting paid, but.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: I was going to say he's got to hold the
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: money because then he's got to pay it back when
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: he gets suspended. It's almost like they're trying to catch
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: the shell game. Do they fire with interest in there? Yeah.
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: Good question. Good question. All right.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: Tomorrow on the program, we'll talk to Hunter Baumgart about
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: your Milwaukee Brewers.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: Cannot wait for that. Yes.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: And we may or may not be basking in the
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: glow and drinking from the chalice of Bears fan tears
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: if they lose tonight at.
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: Home against Sean Mannion.
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: Come on.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts and company. Come on. I need this.
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: You need this.
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: And then tomorrow is Baseballpalooza with four games. It's going
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: to be a blast. Thanks for hanging out with us.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: See you at 5 a.m.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: Peace!
