0:13
Speaker 1: Happy Tamperfest twenty twenty six. We are in at nine
0:18
Speaker 1: o'clock hour at the tampering begin Oh, they're gonna be
0:23
Speaker 1: tampering from coast to coast. If you got you got
0:27
Speaker 1: a child who runs less than a six flat forty,
0:30
Speaker 1: he's gonna be tampered with. Guy, there's gonna be tampering
0:34
Speaker 1: going on at every restaurant, every corner of every bar.
0:38
Speaker 1: You butter believe tampering is on its way and it
0:41
Speaker 1: starts officially now.
0:42
Speaker 2: It's already happening right now, two minutes into Tamperfest twenty
0:46
Speaker 2: twenty six. Oh, I hope Bear's not getting tampered with
0:50
Speaker 2: too much.
0:50
Speaker 1: Probably, yes, probably Mike McDonald probably bugging him already. You
0:54
Speaker 1: gotta be big son.
0:55
Speaker 2: I's gonna get the recess leading alone.
0:58
Speaker 1: Good morning NFL Hell. Free Agency Frenzy starts with a
1:02
Speaker 1: two day tampering period, and so we should start finding
1:07
Speaker 1: out some information here relatively soon as the free agent
1:12
Speaker 1: fur begins to fly. Seahawks, of course, have six starters
1:17
Speaker 1: entering free agency. Doesn't sound like they worked out any
1:20
Speaker 1: deals at the last second to keep them. Kobe Bryant,
1:23
Speaker 1: Reek wooland Josh Job boy A, Mafe, Ken Walker, Rashid
1:29
Speaker 1: Shahed looks like they're all going to enter this tampering
1:32
Speaker 1: period having not been signed by the Seahawks, and so
1:36
Speaker 1: we'll talk about it for the rest of our hour.
1:38
Speaker 1: And joining us now to help us with the conversation
1:42
Speaker 1: former Seahawks running back and you now see him working
1:46
Speaker 1: in the media as well, and that is Robert Turbin
1:49
Speaker 1: who joins us here on Chuck and Buck. Good morning, sir, Hey,
1:53
Speaker 1: what's up?
1:53
Speaker 3: How we doing?
1:54
Speaker 1: How we doing? Good to have you on again. Yeah,
1:57
Speaker 1: are you excited to watch a little free agency friends
2:00
Speaker 1: here today? Yeah?
2:01
Speaker 3: Free agency is always exciting to uh to kind of
2:05
Speaker 3: wait and see who goes where and what sort of
2:09
Speaker 3: tough decisions teams make. This is an exciting time for
2:13
Speaker 3: US players, you know. I remember the first time, you know,
2:17
Speaker 3: being an actual free agent and having uh some you know,
2:21
Speaker 3: some leverage and some choices in terms of, you know,
2:24
Speaker 3: where we could go. And so it's fun. I mean
2:26
Speaker 3: it's fun for on the on the on the team side,
2:28
Speaker 3: and certainly for the player side as well.
2:30
Speaker 1: I'm very curious from your very interesting perspective, because on
2:34
Speaker 1: one hand, I know, when it comes to Ken Walker.
2:37
Speaker 1: You probably want running backs to be valued for what
2:41
Speaker 1: they bring to the table. On the other hand, you
2:44
Speaker 1: spent your career as a backup running back, and I'm
2:47
Speaker 1: sure there were times where you thought to yourself, you're
2:50
Speaker 1: paying all that guy all that money when I know
2:52
Speaker 1: I could do it better than he can. So where
2:54
Speaker 1: then do you land with how valuable Ken Walker is
2:58
Speaker 1: to the Seahawks and their future success.
3:01
Speaker 3: Well, I think he's extremely valuable to the Seahawks and
3:05
Speaker 3: their future success, you know, but I don't think that
3:09
Speaker 3: he makes or breaks the team either. Uh, And that's
3:13
Speaker 3: what is always tough about, you know, making these choices. Right,
3:17
Speaker 3: you get a special player like kenne Falk with the third,
3:20
Speaker 3: but you've got to manage the salary cap in a
3:23
Speaker 3: wise way, and so you have to do this thing
3:26
Speaker 3: from a patient perspective. And I think that's why we
3:30
Speaker 3: haven't seen any of these guys that that are free
3:33
Speaker 3: agents for the Seahawks get signed yet sort of in
3:37
Speaker 3: this tampering window. You gotta be patient, and you've got
3:40
Speaker 3: to allow guys sometimes to go out and explore the
3:43
Speaker 3: market that not only helps the player in terms of,
3:48
Speaker 3: you know, where his value sits at this moment in time,
3:52
Speaker 3: but also the team in terms of, you know, what
3:55
Speaker 3: kind of what kind of offer can we make that
3:58
Speaker 3: we feel is suitable for both sides.
4:02
Speaker 2: Robert, we were talking earlier today about K nine and
4:06
Speaker 2: how after Zach Charbonne went down and he basically was given,
4:09
Speaker 2: you know, the lions shares here you're you're running the rock.
4:12
Speaker 2: There's no more time share trying to keep you healthy.
4:15
Speaker 2: I mean, he showed out. He ran as well as
4:17
Speaker 2: he had at any point in time, as far as
4:21
Speaker 2: three games in a row as a Seahawk. When he
4:24
Speaker 2: was running, he kind of has that patience. They were
4:26
Speaker 2: talking about how patient he was in the Super Bowl,
4:29
Speaker 2: and yet at the other times when he gets stuffed
4:31
Speaker 2: for you know, no gain or one yard loss, people
4:34
Speaker 2: are call that tiptoe up to the line. So when
4:37
Speaker 2: you saw him running in the playoffs and how well
4:40
Speaker 2: he ran and upped his stock, so to speak, was
4:43
Speaker 2: that something that you looked like he learned something, he
4:46
Speaker 2: figured something out or was that just the blocking and
4:49
Speaker 2: they were holding those blocks a little bit longer. What
4:51
Speaker 2: was it that you saw, because obviously it has upped
4:53
Speaker 2: his value in free agency.
4:55
Speaker 3: It was him, it was his development. You know over
4:58
Speaker 3: the course of time that he's been with the Seahawks,
5:01
Speaker 3: and so you got to give a lot of credit
5:03
Speaker 3: to him. You got to give a lot of credit
5:04
Speaker 3: to his position coach at running back, and you know,
5:08
Speaker 3: really quick Kubiak offensive coordinator in terms of just learning
5:12
Speaker 3: who Kenneth Walker is and what he does best. But
5:16
Speaker 3: you know, the adjustment with his patients and everything like
5:18
Speaker 3: that at the line of scrimmage that took time for
5:21
Speaker 3: Kenneth Walker to learn, because when you watch him on
5:23
Speaker 3: tape for a long time, he was always seemingly in
5:28
Speaker 3: a rush, in the rush to get to the line
5:29
Speaker 3: of scrimmage, in the rush to get through the line
5:31
Speaker 3: of scrimmage, and sometimes you know he would miss opportunities
5:36
Speaker 3: for big runs because of lack of patience. And so
5:41
Speaker 3: when you think about his day to day process, who's
5:43
Speaker 3: coaching them, what kind of offensive scheme is being centered
5:47
Speaker 3: around his skills set, you know, all that equaled out
5:51
Speaker 3: to him, you know, becoming the runner that he became
5:54
Speaker 3: in terms of and being the MVP of the Super Bowl.
5:57
Speaker 3: I think I think it was his development over time.
6:00
Speaker 1: Robert Turbin is with his former Seahawk running back and
6:02
Speaker 1: of course, the owner of world's largest biceps. He's with
6:05
Speaker 1: us right here on Chuck and Buck in the morning's
6:07
Speaker 1: talking about NFL free agency and specifically Ken Walker looks
6:12
Speaker 1: like he will be entering NFL free agency a deal
6:15
Speaker 1: has not been worked out. Is there part of you
6:18
Speaker 1: that worries that he figured things out? It took four years,
6:26
Speaker 1: but now he has figured it out, and if he
6:28
Speaker 1: wears another uniform next year, he's going to take all
6:31
Speaker 1: those things that he learned here in Seattle and he's
6:33
Speaker 1: finally going to be that special running back that we
6:36
Speaker 1: forecasted him to be four years ago. I mean, he's
6:39
Speaker 1: been good as a Seahawk, Robert, but I don't know
6:42
Speaker 1: if we could have categorized him as special until the
6:46
Speaker 1: playoff run. Do you feel like he's going to take
6:49
Speaker 1: this momentum and end up being special in another team's
6:52
Speaker 1: uniform going forward?
6:55
Speaker 3: I think he is, you know, I think his growth
6:58
Speaker 3: is going to continue to climb over the course of
7:02
Speaker 3: his career. I think he's just entering his prime now
7:04
Speaker 3: because he's got something figured out. But that's the scary
7:07
Speaker 3: thing about free agency. And I'll push back on what
7:10
Speaker 3: you said a little bit. You know, in terms of
7:12
Speaker 3: now becoming special, I think he always was, especially early
7:16
Speaker 3: on in his career. Then he had some injuries that
7:18
Speaker 3: kind of dinged him up here and there, kind of
7:21
Speaker 3: kind of slowed him down, kind of slowed up his development.
7:24
Speaker 3: But in terms of his explosive speed, his elusiveness and
7:28
Speaker 3: being able to take the ball to the house from
7:29
Speaker 3: anywhere on the field, that's always been there and that's
7:32
Speaker 3: pretty special. But I think he put it all together
7:36
Speaker 3: this season in terms of you know, the patients like
7:39
Speaker 3: we talked about and everything else. But I think that's
7:41
Speaker 3: only going to continue to rise even when he goes
7:44
Speaker 3: to another team. But that's also where he has to
7:46
Speaker 3: be careful in this situation if I was giving him
7:50
Speaker 3: any advice. Obviously you want to maximize on the dollars,
7:55
Speaker 3: especially especially at running back, but I think there's also
7:59
Speaker 3: a space to understand, you know, where he is in
8:04
Speaker 3: terms of playing for the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle Seahawks very
8:08
Speaker 3: special organization. Not every organization has run the way Seattle
8:13
Speaker 3: Seahawks run. Then you have to think about, you know,
8:16
Speaker 3: Seattle as a whole, like the town, the people, the
8:20
Speaker 3: opportunities that present themselves post career it's hard to think
8:25
Speaker 3: about retirement, you know, when you're in your prime. But
8:28
Speaker 3: the truth of the matter is, man, this thing comes
8:30
Speaker 3: to an end for everybody. So for Kenneth Walker, it's like, Okay,
8:34
Speaker 3: you know, do you want to go chase high dollars
8:37
Speaker 3: and maybe not as good of a team and maybe
8:40
Speaker 3: not as good of a relationship with the city, or
8:44
Speaker 3: do you take a little bit less continue to build
8:48
Speaker 3: the legacy that you've already established with the Seattle Seahawks
8:51
Speaker 3: and the city of Seattle, Because to me, that's going
8:56
Speaker 3: to create so many more riches for you than in
9:00
Speaker 3: dollar sign on a contract. Can at this moment in time.
9:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's yeah, that makes sense. I mean, I mean
9:08
Speaker 2: I got one more on the Ken Walker. I mean
9:10
Speaker 2: just because you're a perfect guy to ask this. You
9:12
Speaker 2: were maybe used more so as the change of pace guy,
9:16
Speaker 2: and yet you would understand the toll that it takes
9:19
Speaker 2: to go through the car crashes of being a running back.
9:22
Speaker 2: And there's some some reports out there that Canine maybe
9:26
Speaker 2: wasn't super pumped about being used in such an equal
9:29
Speaker 2: kind of time share with Zach Armony on a contract year.
9:33
Speaker 2: And yet that also is you know, maybe it's not
9:36
Speaker 2: the reason, but it definitely helped in the fact that
9:39
Speaker 2: he was as fresh as he was healthy as he
9:41
Speaker 2: was to be able to run through the playoffs the
9:43
Speaker 2: way that he did and kind of up his stock.
9:45
Speaker 2: So as a running back, I mean in today's game,
9:48
Speaker 2: is that just the way that it is? Is the
9:50
Speaker 2: shared thing? And does he have a legit beef as
9:53
Speaker 2: to not getting more number one carries in a contract year?
9:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I could see exactly. I understand where
10:01
Speaker 3: he's coming from on that because you know, like the
10:02
Speaker 3: only one running back, one running back on the field
10:04
Speaker 3: at a time, man, and we want to be able
10:06
Speaker 3: to maximize on those opportunities. When you're a starter, you
10:10
Speaker 3: want to come out the game when you want to
10:12
Speaker 3: come out the game. That's really what it comes down to.
10:15
Speaker 3: I don't want coach pulling me out unless I say, hey,
10:19
Speaker 3: I need a blow for a couple of plays. That
10:22
Speaker 3: that is what what what Kenneth Walker the third here
10:25
Speaker 3: is talking about. You know, I don't think he minds,
10:29
Speaker 3: you know, sharing time, but he wants to control you
10:32
Speaker 3: know when that is and sometimes it can be frustrating
10:35
Speaker 3: for a back when when you when you don't have
10:37
Speaker 3: control of that, like the Christian mccaffreyes of the world
10:40
Speaker 3: and the Derrick Henry's of the world and the Saquon Barkers,
10:43
Speaker 3: And they control when they're coming in and when they're
10:46
Speaker 3: coming out of the game. And so if you want
10:48
Speaker 3: a situation like that, I can certainly understand it. You know,
10:51
Speaker 3: we're we're we're highly competitive guys. But I would I would,
10:56
Speaker 3: I would really sit back and look at how this
10:59
Speaker 3: season played it out for him in the benefit it
11:03
Speaker 3: was to have a one to two punch, you know,
11:08
Speaker 3: and have a second guy by his side. And I
11:10
Speaker 3: think that even as he's looking at free agency, a
11:13
Speaker 3: situation like that would benefit him.
11:15
Speaker 1: Great stuff here this morning from Robert Turbin, former Seahawks
11:19
Speaker 1: running back does work with Sirius XM's an NFL analyst
11:23
Speaker 1: also CBS, joining us here this morning on the day
11:25
Speaker 1: of the tampering period, which got underway just a few
11:28
Speaker 1: minutes ago, to talk about some of the Seahawks issues
11:32
Speaker 1: heading in to this free agency period. All right, so
11:35
Speaker 1: just let's lump all the other ones together. You got
11:38
Speaker 1: Rashid Shaheed, You've got Kobe Bryant, you've got Josh Job,
11:43
Speaker 1: you've got Rik Woollan, You've got boy a mafe. Of
11:45
Speaker 1: those five guys, what's what's one guy, Robert that you
11:50
Speaker 1: say Seahawks don't let that guy go pay him whatever
11:54
Speaker 1: he wants to keep him on this roster. Uh.
11:58
Speaker 3: You know, honestly, guy would be Kenneth walk of the third. Okay,
12:03
Speaker 3: now he's not and he wasn't on that list that
12:05
Speaker 3: you just mentioned. But I you know, and and obviously
12:09
Speaker 3: all of those guys that you mentioned are are our
12:12
Speaker 3: key contributors, you know, to the title run this last year,
12:17
Speaker 3: and really really good players, especially Rashid Shaheed because of
12:21
Speaker 3: his versatility how you can use him. You know, we
12:24
Speaker 3: talk about his return game, but you know, he's still
12:26
Speaker 3: a good wide receiver, that number two option on the outside,
12:30
Speaker 3: you know, opposite Jayson. But then you could use him
12:33
Speaker 3: in some gadget plays, reverses and sweeps and things of
12:36
Speaker 3: that nature. And so he does bring some dynamics to
12:40
Speaker 3: your offense because of his special speed. And so if
12:44
Speaker 3: I had to choose one just from that list, it
12:47
Speaker 3: would be Rashik Shaheed. But quite honestly, I don't see
12:49
Speaker 3: any of those guys coming back.
12:51
Speaker 2: Wow, really, none of them, not even any of the
12:54
Speaker 2: defensive guys, Kobe Bryant, Just Job or Riq Wolan. They're
12:57
Speaker 2: gonna just have to replace a few dudes in the
12:59
Speaker 2: back end.
13:01
Speaker 3: Josh Job. Josh Job is the guy that that I
13:03
Speaker 3: see out of all those guys like guaranteed to come back.
13:08
Speaker 3: H m hmmm.
13:09
Speaker 1: And uh And would you do the J S N
13:11
Speaker 1: and Witherspoon things this offseason.
13:16
Speaker 3: As far as extension extension, Yeah, I think I think
13:19
Speaker 3: the earlier you can get those things done, the better,
13:22
Speaker 3: So I would say, yes.
13:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
13:24
Speaker 4: Uh.
13:25
Speaker 1: We haven't even talked to you. Uh since the team
13:27
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl? I mean, what are your thoughts
13:30
Speaker 1: on that? Right? I mean were you were you able
13:33
Speaker 1: to believe it? When did you know that this team
13:35
Speaker 1: was going to be a Super Bowl champion?
13:38
Speaker 3: Probably not until about three quarters through the season.
13:42
Speaker 2: Yeah.
13:43
Speaker 3: Was this the second matchup against the Rams. It was
13:47
Speaker 3: a close game they wanted at the end, and I
13:50
Speaker 3: just felt like, okay, there that that's the edge that
13:53
Speaker 3: they needed right there, and then they you know, then
13:57
Speaker 3: they I think it was the last game and the
13:59
Speaker 3: season they'd be forty nine ers. But it was a
14:01
Speaker 3: few weeks before that they played the Rams. They won
14:04
Speaker 3: a close one, and to me, it just gave them
14:06
Speaker 3: an edge. And I and I and I said to myself,
14:09
Speaker 3: I said, man, they see the Rams again in the playoffs.
14:12
Speaker 3: Seattle's got the edge. I just feel like they had
14:14
Speaker 3: the edge, you know, just from that one win. But
14:17
Speaker 3: it took a good a good chuck of the year,
14:19
Speaker 3: you know, for me to see the team as actual
14:22
Speaker 3: Super Bowl contenders.
14:24
Speaker 1: Great stuff, Robert, Hey, great to chat with you. Thanks
14:27
Speaker 1: for coming on this morning, sharing a few thoughts. We'll
14:29
Speaker 1: bug you again soon, all right, anytime, all right, Robert
14:33
Speaker 1: Turbot Turbo joining us right here on Chuck and Buck
14:36
Speaker 1: in the mornings, right here on Free Agency Frenzy day.
14:41
Speaker 1: As he's always got some interesting thoughts. So I had
14:44
Speaker 1: a feeling that the running back loyalty would show up.
14:49
Speaker 1: Now they know, they know what they do, they know
14:53
Speaker 1: their value, they know the beating that they take. Uh.
14:56
Speaker 1: And I don't think you can be in that fraternity
14:58
Speaker 1: without defending their ability to make money. Pay the man.
15:03
Speaker 1: That's how I feel, Robert. But I think he's got
15:06
Speaker 1: the I think he gets it though, unlike Michael Bennett,
15:10
Speaker 1: just pay everybody, pay anybody. Robert gets it like you
15:14
Speaker 1: can't pay everybody, and he's thinking that maybe Josh Joe
15:19
Speaker 1: and That'll be about it that they can keep.
15:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he would probably he would say it should
15:25
Speaker 2: be Ken Walker, because I mean, he just flat out
15:28
Speaker 2: said that the way in which he ran through the
15:31
Speaker 2: playoffs was his development, not all. He just got a
15:35
Speaker 2: better idea what the system is. It was he learned
15:38
Speaker 2: and now maybe unfortunate for him or to the Seahawks
15:43
Speaker 2: if it took him four years to figure it out,
15:45
Speaker 2: but he had multiple offensive coordinators, multiple head coaches, if
15:49
Speaker 2: it did just take him to this last little month
15:52
Speaker 2: of his Seahawks' tenure to figure out how he is
15:56
Speaker 2: patient but then explosive, tough when he needs to be tough.
16:00
Speaker 2: Good for him, even though it might mean that he
16:02
Speaker 2: goes off and has a bunch of you know, fifteen
16:05
Speaker 2: hundred yard seasons or a few of those with somebody else.
16:07
Speaker 1: Well, that's and that's what I thought. I mean, I
16:10
Speaker 1: liked him when they drafted him. I loved it when
16:13
Speaker 1: I first got exposed to him as a Seahawk player
16:16
Speaker 1: his second year in the league. I overdrafted him in
16:20
Speaker 1: fantasy because I was sure that he was getting ready
16:23
Speaker 1: to give us a fourteen fifteen hundred yard season. I
16:26
Speaker 1: talked my brother, who was doing his own fantasy, you
16:29
Speaker 1: gotta get ken Walker and then I can't. I don't
16:32
Speaker 1: hear the end of that, because he just did not
16:35
Speaker 1: produce statistically, and more than that, he just didn't produce
16:40
Speaker 1: as consistently as what you would want him to. Then
16:43
Speaker 1: he gets to the playoffs and he shows us what
16:45
Speaker 1: he's capable of. I do believe there is an element of, oh, man,
16:49
Speaker 1: we might watch ken Walker games whoever he plays for
16:54
Speaker 1: with our eyes, hands over our eyes, just kind of
16:58
Speaker 1: looking through the cracks in our fingers. How good is
17:01
Speaker 1: he going to be? Has he figured something out? Is
17:03
Speaker 1: he going to now go for fourteen hundred yards as
17:06
Speaker 1: a Titan in a season or fifteen hundred yards as
17:08
Speaker 1: a Commander in a season? And all we did is
17:12
Speaker 1: prepped him for that. I mean, he's twenty five years old, right,
17:15
Speaker 1: I mean his best football should be ahead of him.
17:18
Speaker 1: But when you're weighing all the things that we've discussed
17:21
Speaker 1: about him, like was he that fresh at the end
17:24
Speaker 1: of the year because you did put him on a
17:28
Speaker 1: carry sharing program this year? Does he have some injuries
17:34
Speaker 1: that are always going to pop up every single year.
17:37
Speaker 1: Does he hit the hole consistently enough to not frustrate
17:41
Speaker 1: Mike McDonald where you have to take him out in
17:43
Speaker 1: a crucial drive because you don't trust him all of
17:46
Speaker 1: those things combined, and you're not going to give him
17:49
Speaker 1: top of the market money, which is what he's going
17:52
Speaker 1: to get probably today. And I've been saying all along,
17:56
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans have the most money. I think he's
17:58
Speaker 1: going to be a Tennessee Titan before the day comes
18:00
Speaker 1: to a close. But there's a lot of interest in him,
18:03
Speaker 1: and those teams that are interested just are a lot
18:06
Speaker 1: more interested in paying him a lot of money than
18:09
Speaker 1: what the local team is.
18:10
Speaker 2: Well, whoever does it is betting that what they saw
18:13
Speaker 2: here the last month of the season, when he was
18:15
Speaker 2: getting the lot most of the carries, that's the dude
18:18
Speaker 2: that you're gonna get, and that's what you're gonna end
18:20
Speaker 2: up paying for. Whether or not it is that, we'll
18:23
Speaker 2: have to see what that is. But I think it's
18:25
Speaker 2: fairly certain to feel like the Seahawks are not in
18:28
Speaker 2: that same category. And ultimately, the team that's watched him
18:31
Speaker 2: every single snap of his professional career, I think that's
18:36
Speaker 2: probably the opinion that I would take most.
18:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it.
18:40
Speaker 2: I get it.
18:41
Speaker 1: John, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna judge you, But.
18:44
Speaker 2: If he ends up being a Bronco, I'm not gonna
18:46
Speaker 2: be all that mad either.
18:49
Speaker 1: By the way, Alec Pierce did come to agreement on
18:52
Speaker 1: a term of the Indianapolis Colts. So even though we're
18:54
Speaker 1: past the deadline and we are now officially into the
18:57
Speaker 1: tampering period, it doesn't mean that they weren't working on
19:00
Speaker 1: deals at the midnight hour with Walker or Brian or whoever.
19:04
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that, you know, they might have something agreed upon,
19:08
Speaker 1: but until they have the actual literature for the contract done,
19:14
Speaker 1: that we might not hear that announcement. And even if
19:17
Speaker 1: they don't, even if they don't, I mean, it's not
19:19
Speaker 1: like it's some hard deadline like ken Walker can't eventually
19:23
Speaker 1: be a Seahawk. I mean, they can just keep negotiating
19:25
Speaker 1: with him throughout this process. The only difference is is
19:28
Speaker 1: that now other teams are legally allowed to tamper with
19:32
Speaker 1: his ass. Okay, so that's that's the only difference. But
19:35
Speaker 1: they can keep negotiating with him all day, all night
19:40
Speaker 1: into the morning, so that doesn't mean that these players
19:43
Speaker 1: are leaving Seattle. In case anybody was a little bit confused,
19:47
Speaker 1: you probably weren't. You're you're pretty smart. Alec Pierce, though,
19:51
Speaker 1: did sign a deal with the Indianapolis Colts four years,
19:54
Speaker 1: one hundred and sixteen million, twenty nine million a year. Yeah,
19:58
Speaker 1: that's he's good play.
20:00
Speaker 4: It's a lot, though, that's a lot of money, a
20:03
Speaker 4: lot for him, a lot, a lot that is paying him,
20:05
Speaker 4: like at the very least a awesome number two. Yeah,
20:12
Speaker 4: and almost a number one.
20:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, almost ninety million dollars guarantee, eighty four million guaranteed. Yeah.
20:17
Speaker 1: Yeah. All right. Coming up next on the radio program,
20:20
Speaker 1: we'll get you up to date on everything else that's
20:23
Speaker 1: going on here in the frenzy. I have a feeling
20:26
Speaker 1: we'll have some information to impart on the other side
20:29
Speaker 1: of the commercial break, Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
20:33
Speaker 1: And it didn't take very long into the frenzy, into
20:36
Speaker 1: the tampon to get in our tampering period on to
20:40
Speaker 1: find out where ken Walker is going. He is leaving Seattle.
20:44
Speaker 1: The Super Bowl MVP has in fact signed with the
20:49
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs. Your breaking news here this morning and
20:54
Speaker 1: so ken Walker a chief. We don't have the dollar
20:57
Speaker 1: figures on the deal, at least I don't have them
21:00
Speaker 1: in front of me just yet. We'll try to find
21:02
Speaker 1: those out for you as soon as possible. But that
21:06
Speaker 1: did not take very long at all, all that ripe
21:10
Speaker 1: and all that build up, and about thirty minutes into
21:13
Speaker 1: the tampering period, not even that. Ken Walker is basically
21:17
Speaker 1: the first big name off the books.
21:19
Speaker 2: He's a Kansas City Chief'll screw you, k nine came
21:24
Speaker 2: back here. You could have went to Denver, but now
21:27
Speaker 2: you go to Kansas City. Fine your tiptoeer.
21:31
Speaker 1: Now he's a tip tooer.
21:32
Speaker 5: Yeah, you who's it? And what's it?
21:36
Speaker 2: They're not going to be able to figure out how
21:38
Speaker 2: to use him in that offense, damn it. Oh he's
21:42
Speaker 2: going to go run for two thousand yards, isn't he.
21:44
Speaker 5: He's going to make your broncos look like fools.
21:47
Speaker 2: Well, if he does, it'll make Seattle bummed out too.
21:52
Speaker 1: Oh, Misery loves company, Yeah it is, Oh okay, well, yeah,
21:58
Speaker 1: I mean this is the This was the story was
22:00
Speaker 1: kind of circulating throughout the entire weekend, like the Chiefs
22:03
Speaker 1: look like a for sure thing, and then all of
22:06
Speaker 1: a sudden, you wake up Monday morning and other teams
22:09
Speaker 1: are being prominently mentioned as well. But it turns out
22:13
Speaker 1: somebody knew something over the weekend. And I would imagine
22:16
Speaker 1: there are a lot of someones who know a lot
22:19
Speaker 1: of some things that are going to happen here today
22:21
Speaker 1: and just waited for the right time to announce it.
22:24
Speaker 1: And so first big signing is our guy leaving, and
22:29
Speaker 1: he's now their guy. Ken Walker is a Kansas City
22:32
Speaker 1: Chief And you're right, I mean, you hit upon something there. Yeah,
22:36
Speaker 1: he's probably gonna be really good with that offense. You know,
22:40
Speaker 1: I think he would have been good with our offense going.
22:42
Speaker 1: I think he would have been better than what he'd
22:44
Speaker 1: been regular season wise the last four years had he
22:47
Speaker 1: remained in ac Hawk uniform. But certainly, when you think
22:51
Speaker 1: about all those other teams that were vying for him,
22:55
Speaker 1: the Chiefs make an awful lot of sense.
22:57
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you've seen number of guys. I mean
23:00
Speaker 2: they've Pacheco was good, he ended up getting hurt. He
23:03
Speaker 2: had some good years. I mean, I mean they've had
23:07
Speaker 2: multiple guys. Maybe at the end didn't pan out the
23:09
Speaker 2: way that they thought when they took him at the
23:11
Speaker 2: end of the first round a couple of years back.
23:13
Speaker 2: But I mean the Kareem Hunt is at tian Or yeah, trap,
23:18
Speaker 2: well not the one that went to the Jaguars. There's another,
23:21
Speaker 2: uh Edwards. Yeah, Hilaire, Yeah, he was. He didn't pan
23:24
Speaker 2: out the way that they had hoped, but they it
23:28
Speaker 2: feels like, I mean they've had Kareem Hunt like what
23:31
Speaker 2: seventeen different times right where he's on the free agent
23:33
Speaker 2: market and all of hey come on back and he
23:36
Speaker 2: all of a sudden has great games here and there.
23:38
Speaker 2: I think this might be the most talented running back
23:40
Speaker 2: that they've had in a long time. And you throw
23:42
Speaker 2: that in with Patrick Mahomes and obviously Andy Reid, you know,
23:47
Speaker 2: is the as the brains behind the whole thing. Yeah,
23:50
Speaker 2: it could be a big year for him, Yeah, without
23:53
Speaker 2: a doubt.
23:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, And they may clear a lot of cap space.
23:56
Speaker 1: They cut Jawan Taylor to career twenty million, a couple
23:59
Speaker 1: of guys reward deals. Travis Kelcey looks like he's going
24:02
Speaker 1: to go back to Kansas City, but probably not near
24:04
Speaker 1: the salary that he was at previously. And so the Chiefs,
24:10
Speaker 1: you know, leave it to them, like, hey, we stunk
24:14
Speaker 1: for one year. But if we do things the right
24:16
Speaker 1: way with the quarterback that we have and the head
24:18
Speaker 1: coach that we have, we should be able to get
24:23
Speaker 1: back on top pretty quickly. And this is a move
24:25
Speaker 1: suggesting we're going to try to get back on top
24:28
Speaker 1: pretty quickly. We don't know the money as at this point,
24:31
Speaker 1: but that's a statement. That's a statement to start this
24:34
Speaker 1: entire process. The Kansas City Chiefs, after their first bad
24:38
Speaker 1: year in memory, have taken our guy Ken Walker right out.
24:44
Speaker 2: Of the Tampa fight. I hope it's ten years of
24:47
Speaker 2: billion dollars.
24:49
Speaker 1: A billion dollars against the cap.
24:51
Speaker 6: I will say they are lucky though that Travis Kelsey's
24:54
Speaker 6: in a position that he doesn't really probably need to
24:56
Speaker 6: play for the money, considering he's engaged to a billionaire.
24:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it will take less for sure.
25:01
Speaker 6: So yeah, he'd be like, yeah, no, I'm good as
25:03
Speaker 6: long as you're going to do stuff to win the
25:04
Speaker 6: Super Bowl, let's do it.
25:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So there you go that we don't
25:08
Speaker 1: have to think about that any longer, I suppose. And
25:11
Speaker 1: so what is the move? Now? We know Charbonny's not
25:15
Speaker 1: going to be healthy enough to start the season, and
25:17
Speaker 1: we also know Ken Walker's not going to be back,
25:20
Speaker 1: So what is the counter move from the Seahawks. Again,
25:23
Speaker 1: I don't think we're going to hear anything soon. Don't
25:28
Speaker 1: worry about it. Don't get your guts twisted and not
25:32
Speaker 1: John Schneider probably gonna play out this process, wait for
25:35
Speaker 1: the first wave or two of free agents to pass.
25:38
Speaker 1: I'd be stunned if the counter move is Travis Eten
25:41
Speaker 1: to just go to the next best free agent. If
25:43
Speaker 1: you're going to do that, then why not keep your
25:45
Speaker 1: own guy that you know and could use. So I
25:49
Speaker 1: don't think that's going to be the move. I'm pretty
25:52
Speaker 1: sure they'll draft somebody on Day number two of the
25:55
Speaker 1: draft to play running back. And I'm pretty sure they'll
25:57
Speaker 1: add a veteran free agent through this process as well,
26:02
Speaker 1: and that's probably gonna be your running back tandem heading
26:05
Speaker 1: into next year. But I don't think they're gonna spend
26:08
Speaker 1: a lot of money, and I don't think we'll find
26:10
Speaker 1: that information out in the next couple of days. I
26:12
Speaker 1: think it'll probably be Thursday at the Earth.
26:14
Speaker 6: Michael Sean de Gar just posted Canan reportedly getting a
26:17
Speaker 6: deal up worth up to forty five million over three.
26:20
Speaker 1: Years wow tm Milly here.
26:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a good it's a good
26:29
Speaker 2: chunk of change. Good for him, Immy, he ran, he
26:31
Speaker 2: ran well there at the end, and he's showed spurts
26:34
Speaker 2: of it obviously in his entire time. But it's gonna
26:37
Speaker 2: be interesting to see what happens when Andy Reid gets him.
26:40
Speaker 2: And I mean, you can never focus solely on the
26:43
Speaker 2: run game when Patrick Mahomes is the one taking snaps, right,
26:46
Speaker 2: So it's I would have to think he's pretty excited.
26:49
Speaker 2: I bet everybody in Kansas City and including ken Walker,
26:52
Speaker 2: pretty excited about the whole situation. But yeah, when it
26:55
Speaker 2: comes to the Seahawks and filling that void, I mean,
26:58
Speaker 2: I think most people are gonna have even if it's
27:01
Speaker 2: kind of weighted with baited breath, I think that everybody's
27:04
Speaker 2: going to be thinking, all right, John'll figure it out
27:06
Speaker 2: and he will not going to enter the season well,
27:09
Speaker 2: we're just going to play with ten guys until Charbon
27:12
Speaker 2: is healthy. That's not going to happen. They're going to
27:14
Speaker 2: do something. But it is interesting because the way in
27:17
Speaker 2: which K nine finished his tenure here as a Seahawk,
27:21
Speaker 2: it's not going to be easy to replace that. I mean,
27:23
Speaker 2: I think you can figure out a way to do
27:25
Speaker 2: it and hope to do it with maybe a veteran
27:28
Speaker 2: player here or there, somebody that's you know, hasn't been
27:31
Speaker 2: re signed to their team. But we'll see. It's going
27:35
Speaker 2: to be interesting to see how that running back room
27:36
Speaker 2: looks come training camp.
27:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the free agents don't exactly leap out
27:40
Speaker 1: at you that are going to be available out there.
27:43
Speaker 1: I mean ETI end I like, and I could see
27:46
Speaker 1: him stepping right in there. But if Walker's going for
27:49
Speaker 1: fifteen at the end's probably going to go for twelve
27:52
Speaker 1: and at the minimum. So I'm not sure why you
27:57
Speaker 1: wouldn't just pay your own guys. So that probably does
28:00
Speaker 1: and feel like a candidate to me. Ric o'dowdell I
28:03
Speaker 1: think is a punishing runner who's better than what the
28:06
Speaker 1: Cowboys realized. And I think the Panthers were the beneficiary
28:10
Speaker 1: of the Cowboys mistrust in Dowdell. You can bring him in.
28:14
Speaker 1: I think he's a capable guy to put in a
28:17
Speaker 1: job share. He's your power guy, he's your between the
28:20
Speaker 1: tackles guy. He can also catch the ball out of
28:22
Speaker 1: the backfield. Certainly's going to come cheaper than either Walker
28:25
Speaker 1: or at TN in this process. I don't really like
28:28
Speaker 1: Rashad White from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I think he's
28:31
Speaker 1: got talent, I just don't really think that he's all
28:33
Speaker 1: that smart of a runner. Kenneth Gainwell, to me, is
28:37
Speaker 1: a tough guy, but he's not a Walker esque replacement.
28:43
Speaker 1: I know Aaron Rodgers loved him. From the Pittsburgh Steelers.
28:46
Speaker 1: Tyler al Jeer, no thank you. Just way too slow. JK. Dobbins,
28:52
Speaker 1: way too injured, Nick Chubb even more injured. Brian Robinson,
28:56
Speaker 1: no thank you. Pacheco is also a free agent. He
28:59
Speaker 1: is a very hard runner, but that's really his attribute
29:02
Speaker 1: is that he just does not stop trying to run
29:05
Speaker 1: people over. Raem Mostert is fast but old, and Austin
29:09
Speaker 1: Eckler is slow but old.
29:11
Speaker 5: Okay, perfect.
29:13
Speaker 1: So it's not a great group. But that's not the
29:16
Speaker 1: only avenue. You also have, As we mentioned in last
29:19
Speaker 1: week when we were doing the running back position, you
29:22
Speaker 1: also have that option of going out there and trading.
29:25
Speaker 1: You know, if running back value really is down and
29:28
Speaker 1: you find an overcrowded backfield out there and you want
29:30
Speaker 1: to flip a fourth fifth rounder for some established veteran
29:35
Speaker 1: with a locked in salary. That's also an option for John.
29:39
Speaker 1: Of course, keep in mind, you only have four draft
29:41
Speaker 1: picks with which to work with this year, so trading
29:45
Speaker 1: one of those, even if it is the last one
29:47
Speaker 1: that you have for a veteran running back, does come
29:50
Speaker 1: at a little bit of a cost in an area
29:52
Speaker 1: that you don't have a lot of depth in. So yeah,
29:55
Speaker 1: I mean, they know, they know, they know the market,
29:59
Speaker 1: and they know so that if they didn't go with
30:01
Speaker 1: Walker that they were going to have to face a
30:04
Speaker 1: market you know that might be bereft of another Ken
30:08
Speaker 1: Walker type. That said, it's very clear that we weren't
30:11
Speaker 1: willing to pay fifteen million dollars a year for this player.
30:14
Speaker 1: We'll take our chances elsewhere.
30:16
Speaker 3: M h.
30:17
Speaker 2: It's interesting.
30:18
Speaker 1: I agree with it. At the end of the day.
30:20
Speaker 2: I agree with that. Yeah, it'll be interesting. I don't know.
30:24
Speaker 2: I mean, I I too. I mean, I'm not going
30:26
Speaker 2: to change saying where the number was at. I was
30:29
Speaker 2: thinking fourteen would be more than what I would want
30:31
Speaker 2: to pay, So fifteen obviously still falls in that category.
30:34
Speaker 2: But well, boy, you're sitting you think about the brain
30:37
Speaker 2: trust that is Andy Reid, right, If Andy Reid is
30:40
Speaker 2: thinking I think he's worth fifteen, then it makes me
30:44
Speaker 2: second guess whether why was I Why was I thinking
30:47
Speaker 2: he isn't right? I mean, that's one of the better
30:50
Speaker 2: offensive trained eyes that's in the NFL right now. So
30:53
Speaker 2: it makes me kind of wonder a little. I mean,
30:55
Speaker 2: you think of Isaiah Checko, a guy that was with
30:58
Speaker 2: them basically, who's his market value is probably a third
31:02
Speaker 2: of that, and yet they're thinking he's on his way out,
31:05
Speaker 2: and that's like the fourth best free agent. Now you're right.
31:09
Speaker 2: You have the draft with four picks in it where
31:12
Speaker 2: you can get something, and then you have other trades,
31:14
Speaker 2: and there's obviously somebody on that list that either you know,
31:18
Speaker 2: maybe Seahawks wouldn't like or Seahawks fans wouldn't like, but
31:21
Speaker 2: that John Schneider and company do like. It's just interesting, boy,
31:25
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. It's just when a guy that
31:27
Speaker 2: has thought of as highly as Andy Reid says I'll
31:30
Speaker 2: take your guy. I'll pay him beyond what you were
31:34
Speaker 2: willing to pay him, that does make me step back
31:37
Speaker 2: for a second. I'll be interested to hear what Mike
31:39
Speaker 2: Holmgan takes well.
31:40
Speaker 1: I mean, if you have a giant, gaping hole, and
31:42
Speaker 1: you are desperate to get back where. I think they're
31:44
Speaker 1: a little more desperate than what the Seahawks are, and
31:47
Speaker 1: that's I think that they're tired of having a running
31:50
Speaker 1: back they can't trust. So that would be my guess,
31:53
Speaker 1: is that they were willing to spend a little bit
31:56
Speaker 1: more money on a position that they just haven't been
31:59
Speaker 1: able to roll upon here in the last couple of years.
32:02
Speaker 1: And that's always but Checklar I hadn't been healthy and
32:04
Speaker 1: he's not that dynamic.
32:05
Speaker 6: Yeah, And that's what we've been talking about too, is
32:07
Speaker 6: that we thought teams would overpay for Walker. We just
32:10
Speaker 6: didn't really want the Seahawks to overpay for him. I mean,
32:12
Speaker 6: I thought twelve million was a good price. It's yeah,
32:15
Speaker 6: three years worth up to forty five. He's the highest
32:17
Speaker 6: paid free agent or it is the highest paid free
32:19
Speaker 6: agent deal for running back in NFL history, and he
32:22
Speaker 6: is apparently guaranteed twenty eight two point seven million.
32:27
Speaker 1: Are they're flying and fast and furious. This is Adam
32:30
Speaker 1: Schefter sitting on a stack of things that have been
32:32
Speaker 1: pre tampered with and now he's trying to figure out,
32:36
Speaker 1: all right, how much time do I need to give
32:38
Speaker 1: in between tweets without revealing the tampering violations that have
32:46
Speaker 1: taken place, but also without somebody beating me to the punch.
32:50
Speaker 1: So they're just rolling out right now. Jalen Watson is
32:54
Speaker 1: leading the Kansas City Chiefs. He's going to the Los
32:57
Speaker 1: Angeles Rams on a three year deal. So the Rams
32:59
Speaker 1: are gonna end up with Watson and McDuffie. So the
33:04
Speaker 1: Koug and the dog that were in the Kansaity Chiefs
33:08
Speaker 1: backfield and the Rams gonna end up with both of
33:10
Speaker 1: them as JSN defense I suppose. And now Jalen Phillips
33:16
Speaker 1: got a lot more than I think people thought he
33:18
Speaker 1: was going to get. The pass rusher has left the
33:22
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles four years, one hundred and twenty million dollars
33:28
Speaker 1: thirty million a year to go to the Carolina Panthers.
33:32
Speaker 1: So Jalen Phillips not sticking around Philadelphia. He is now
33:36
Speaker 1: a Carolina Panther. So they're coming fast and furious. Now,
33:40
Speaker 1: welcome to Tampa Fest. One last thing to close out
33:43
Speaker 1: our show. Next Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM,
33:52
Speaker 1: right final segment, One last thing coming your way. Don't
33:55
Speaker 1: forget you can make Talala prasort to Casino and Quilcia Creek,
34:00
Speaker 1: you know, your home for the madness which is coming
34:03
Speaker 1: NCAA tournament action. We will have an announcement on when
34:05
Speaker 1: Bucky and I are going to be out there here
34:08
Speaker 1: come tournament time. That should become official a little bit
34:11
Speaker 1: later on this week. But nothing, no reason to wait
34:15
Speaker 1: on us. Just make your plans to head there soak
34:17
Speaker 1: up as much tournament action as you possibly can. If
34:19
Speaker 1: you can't get there on the first day, well you
34:21
Speaker 1: have four days the very first weekend. You'd even go
34:23
Speaker 1: with the playing games.
34:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, there's there's nothing stopping you. You can go
34:27
Speaker 2: before that. You can go before that, start getting some
34:31
Speaker 2: if you're itching to you know, pick your winners, and
34:33
Speaker 2: before you know, Chuck and I get there to let
34:36
Speaker 2: you know exactly who's going to win exactly.
34:37
Speaker 5: The rules on how many times you can go.
34:39
Speaker 2: No, no, no, you can actually move there. I don't
34:42
Speaker 2: actually I probably shouldn't say that. That's probably false. You
34:45
Speaker 2: probably can't live there, but you could spend a lot
34:47
Speaker 2: of time there, right and then just go home and shout.
34:50
Speaker 1: You'd really have to abuse your privilege for them to
34:52
Speaker 1: get sick of you, yes, exactly, all right. One last
34:55
Speaker 1: thing is pretty much going to hover around Tamperfest because
34:58
Speaker 1: there's all sorts of active going on. Yeah, they've come
35:02
Speaker 1: out of the gates flying. We've got stories breaking everywhere,
35:06
Speaker 1: including a trade that has been pulled off since we
35:09
Speaker 1: went to break the Pittsburgh Steelers in Indianapolis Colts. So
35:13
Speaker 1: the Colts re sign Alec Pierce.
35:15
Speaker 2: Well, he can't afford.
35:16
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman junior, so they have moved on from Pittman.
35:20
Speaker 1: The former USC trojan is now a Pittsburgh Steeler. We
35:24
Speaker 1: don't have the details. I don't believe anyway on that
35:27
Speaker 1: deal just yet.
35:28
Speaker 5: They're just trading late round picks or something.
35:30
Speaker 2: Are they.
35:31
Speaker 1: So Pittman will open up twenty four million dollars in
35:34
Speaker 1: cap space for the Colts, so pretty much like a salary.
35:38
Speaker 1: They got some big ass receivers in Pittsburgh. Now, my goodness,
35:42
Speaker 1: nobody throw to them. But yeah, there is that. That's
35:45
Speaker 1: not that big of a deal, Ashley. Oh No, and
35:48
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins who released to earlier in the day
35:54
Speaker 1: are going to spend a little bit more. I bet
35:56
Speaker 1: you we're gonna find out there's a lot of money
35:57
Speaker 1: they just spent on Milika.
35:59
Speaker 6: Three years, sixty seven and a half million dollar deal
36:02
Speaker 6: with forty five million fully guaranteed.
36:04
Speaker 2: All right, three years not bad.
36:07
Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna get more. But Malik Willis,
36:11
Speaker 1: who was thought of quite highly once upon a time
36:13
Speaker 1: coming out of college, ended up not being a first
36:16
Speaker 1: round pick like was at one time perceived. Kind of
36:20
Speaker 1: tumbled down the draft, looked like he wasn't ever going
36:23
Speaker 1: to get going, and yet with Green Bay kind of
36:26
Speaker 1: saved his career. And now he's moving on as a
36:29
Speaker 1: free agent to start for the Miami Dolphins next year.
36:32
Speaker 1: So Malik Willis signs a free agent deal with the
36:35
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins.
36:36
Speaker 6: A lot of activity, and Isaiah likely headed to the Giants.
36:40
Speaker 1: Where did that come from?
36:41
Speaker 2: Yeah?
36:41
Speaker 5: Yeah, forty million dollar contract with upside before.
36:44
Speaker 2: I wanted his gay three year deal.
36:46
Speaker 1: Okay, always thought that guy had a lot of potential.
36:50
Speaker 1: He just leads the league in his foot barely being
36:53
Speaker 1: out of bounds.
36:53
Speaker 6: Which isn't something you really want to I mean, you
36:57
Speaker 6: know you want to lead it in your foot barely
36:58
Speaker 6: being in bounce.
36:59
Speaker 1: He said, like two huge stages the old all the
37:04
Speaker 1: world is watching. I could have won the game with
37:06
Speaker 1: a touchdown, and he's had two times where his foot
37:09
Speaker 1: was like barely out of bounds and he had it negated.
37:12
Speaker 1: Uh so maybe he'll learn to keep his foot in
37:15
Speaker 1: bounds with the New York check And.
37:17
Speaker 5: Now he's going to be the third highest paid tight
37:19
Speaker 5: end in.
37:19
Speaker 1: The money's flying around. Money is flying in or around.
37:23
Speaker 1: So there you go. Well we're off and running.
37:26
Speaker 2: Get ready. What is such a champ on? Yeah, exactly,
37:31
Speaker 2: it is flowing now.
37:32
Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't think. I didn't expect to be this heavy.
37:35
Speaker 5: In the first hour you show.
37:38
Speaker 2: Was telling you it was going to come hot and heavy.
37:41
Speaker 5: Yeah, apparently.
37:42
Speaker 2: Yeah.
37:42
Speaker 1: I think I think Adam Schefter had been carrying around
37:47
Speaker 1: so many nuggets he was cramping.
37:48
Speaker 3: Yeah.
37:49
Speaker 5: I think you're probably right.
37:50
Speaker 1: I think that for the last he's known for days now,
37:53
Speaker 1: and because he can't let anyone else break a story,
37:56
Speaker 1: he's not even going about it smoothly. He isosing everyone
38:01
Speaker 1: who has pre tampered here in the early tampering process.
38:06
Speaker 1: So you are all now suspicious of pre tampering. Just
38:10
Speaker 1: want you to know that includes you too, Andy Reid.
38:12
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, careful.
38:15
Speaker 1: I'll come after you.
38:15
Speaker 5: Whoopsie doodle.
38:17
Speaker 1: Mike Homngrin is my friend, but you're not all right.
38:21
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you tomorrow at six am. We'll just
38:24
Speaker 1: hand this over to Mark and Chris. Of course, keep
38:26
Speaker 1: it here all day long. Sports Radio ninety three point

38:53
Speaker 7: Still tough coming into Seattle on northbound five oh nine.
38:55
Speaker 7: There's almost a two mile solid backup as you approach
38:57
Speaker 7: Cloverdale's where you're detoured off the roadway. It's all to
39:00
Speaker 7: the fact that all northbound lanes at the first Avenue
39:02
Speaker 7: south Bridge on ninety nine are closed and they stay
39:03
Speaker 7: closed until Wednesday night. So that's the reason for our
39:06
Speaker 7: struggle there. North nine five is still busy for a
39:07
Speaker 7: mid bolling field. Much of the way to I ninety
39:09
