1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you, man, I there's a reason why,

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 1: and we talk about this during the regular season. I

3
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: don't like going to this ballpark when the Blue Jays

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: are in town during the regular season. And there's a

5
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: reason why there were a lot less Blue Jay fans

6
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 1: in the stands last night than for a regular season games.

7
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,760
Speaker 2: Or kudos to the Mariners or Mariner.

8
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 1: Fans, whatever the hell they did to keep those slime

9
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: balls out of our stadium last night. The problem guys

10
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: with me, and you may have seen me tweet about

11
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: this yesterday.

12
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 2: Every single one it felt.

13
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: Like they were sitting right next to me in my

14
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: section last night, including one Jackwagon who was in full

15
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: Blue Jay uniform, hat, uniform, pants, the whole freaking thing.

16
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 3: Do you think he was gonna get the call to

17
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 3: the pen?

18
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,279
Speaker 1: All he was missing was a cup in some EyeBlack

19
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: for crying out lines, so right to sit next to

20
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 1: that bozo the entire game. So look, I mean, here's

21
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: the deal, and the obvious is this, Mariners still very

22
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: much have the advantage at this very moment in this series,

23
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: no question about that. If I would have told you

24
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: before the series began, they're gonna be up two games

25
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: to one going into Game four with Luis Castilla, when

26
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: Max Shurr's are on. Old man, Max, you would have said,

27
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: where do I sign? Right this game, though, today has

28
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: taken on for me, at least emotionally, and I think,

29
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: even kind of slightly logically a much different meaning. I

30
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: just have a feel that whoever wins this game for

31
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: us tonight may end up winning this whole freaking thing.

32
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking about the Blue Jay offense waking

33
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 1: up against George Kirby last night. If they can win

34
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: this thing somehow someway and get their pitching staff to

35
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: go toe to toe with Luis Castillo and win this thing,

36
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: maybe in the later eatings. I don't see Luis Castillo

37
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: getting destroyed knock on wood the way George Kirby did

38
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: last night. If I can't count on a guy who

39
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: in the month of September was basically balls by the

40
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: way for this baseball team, and a guy who's their

41
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: most seasoned veteran arm against a forty one year old

42
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 1: pitcher by the way, and Max Scherzer who has not

43
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: made a start since what September twenty fourth, then what

44
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: can I count on? I gotta like this pitching matchup tonight.

45
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: I have to like this pitching matchup. On paper, the

46
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: Mariners have every single advantage. What I need to see

47
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: happen tonight is I need to see Dan Wilson have

48
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: a little bit of a better feel for the game

49
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: than he had yesterday.

50
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 2: Slightly. We're talking about that in a second Dick.

51
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: And then I need guys like Gino Suarez and Randy

52
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: a rose Arena to step up. Randy a rose Arena

53
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: comes up last night with a bomb down ten that

54
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: does nothing for me nothing, Grow a set of balls

55
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 1: and start being clutch for this baseball team when the

56
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: game is on the line. Guys hitting a Buck seventy

57
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 1: six with a five to ninety four OPS and the

58
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: playoffs not good enough. Gino Suarez hitting a Buck fifty

59
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 1: two with a four to seventy three OPS in the

60
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,119
Speaker 1: playoff not good enough for this baseball team. These pitchers

61
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: have gone out there game after game for the most parts,

62
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: and they've piched their balls off. The offense needs to

63
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: be able to give these guys a little bit of cushion,

64
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: especially in a game like this, and especially against an

65
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: offense like that.

66
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 4: I think the bottom line is the Mariners have to

67
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,119
Speaker 4: win this series for one reason and one reason only.

68
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: The series or this game, this series, and I'll tell

69
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: you what.

70
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 4: The Blue Jays in successive games have started a twenty

71
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 4: two year old making his fourth ever major league start,

72
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 4: a pitcher that has had made nine starts since October

73
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 4: of twenty twenty three, and now a forty one year

74
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 4: old that hasn't pitched in three weeks and only pitched

75
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 4: half this season. If you would have told me going

76
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 4: into this series that's the stretch that you would face

77
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 4: of opposing starting pitchers, there would be no excuse and

78
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 4: you can place the blame on whoever you want. You

79
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 4: want to place on Randy Rose Raina, Fine, you want

80
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 4: to place it on JP Crawford, Fine, you want to

81
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 4: place on the offense, whatever you want to place it

82
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 4: on Dan Wilson more for not touching Luis Castillo for

83
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 4: eight days, nine days, other than fifteen pitches that he

84
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 4: threw on Friday. Yeah, I mean that's a criticism for

85
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 4: Dan Wilson. But the bottom line is you're the better team.

86
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 4: You got the much better staff, you got, the better bullpen,

87
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 4: you got, the deeper offense, and I think those offensive

88
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 4: guys that you mentioned. I mean, eventually it all kind

89
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 4: of comes back into the wash. Right, You're gonna have

90
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 4: guys that are hot for a stretch and guys are

91
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 4: for a stretch. The sample size I think still to

92
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 4: say this guy's having a terrible playoffs. I still think

93
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 4: the sample size being only what eight games?

94
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean.

95
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: That they are having a terrible ways, right, I mean,

96
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: there's no other games to put the players.

97
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 2: But if a time, that's how heroes are judged.

98
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 4: What I'm saying, though, is if it was an eight

99
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 4: game sample size in the regular shit, but it's not.

100
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I totally agree with your premise.

101
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: By the way, if this was an eight game regular

102
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: season run in the middle of June, right, nobody's getting

103
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: on Randy A. Rose Arena for hitting a buck seventy

104
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 1: six and nobody's getting on Gino for hitting about fifty two.

105
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: Maybe it's something that we talk about, but we're certainly

106
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: not animated. Like right, there's no doubt. But this is

107
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: why you brought these guys here. You you went out

108
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: and you got Gino Suarez for moments like this. You

109
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,359
Speaker 1: got Randy a Rose Arena, who you mentioned yourself was

110
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: great with Tampa Bay right in the playoffs back in

111
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: the day. They need to start connecting, they need to

112
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: start hitting the base. And look, Dick, I totally agree

113
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: with what you're saying about the opportunity the Blue Jays

114
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: are giving you with their pitching staff that they're throwing

115
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: out there. And your point about Castillo was totally valid

116
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: because the guy his last start was October fifth, He

117
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: had fifteen pitches on Friday night, versus the Tigers easily

118
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 1: could have pitched yesterday. And I could see somebody saying, well, hey, eventually,

119
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to go to George Kirby. I get that,

120
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: but there's a difference going to George Kirby up to

121
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: one versus up three to one, because now you've given

122
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: Toronto this unbelievable momentum and the fact that they woke

123
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: up this morning in their team hotel knowing they could

124
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: tie this thing and go back to Toronto.

125
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 4: I had more of an issue going to Logan Gilbert

126
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 4: on short rest two games ago than I did going

127
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 4: to George Kirby yesterday. I mean, why would you pitch

128
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 4: a guy on short rest when you've got Luis Castillo

129
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 4: sitting there? Since October the fifth, not making a start,

130
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 4: And don't tell me it's home road splits, because go

131
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 4: look at Logan Gilbert's home road strits splits, and go

132
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 4: look at Luis Castillo's.

133
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 3: They're the same. They're exactly the saying.

134
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 4: Both are better pitchers, far better pictures at home as

135
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 4: they are in the road. But it's not like Logan

136
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 4: Gilbert's are more even Now, Yeah, the points two runs

137
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 4: better at home, by so's Logan too.

138
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 2: So is Logan two point one.

139
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 4: So the point you made off the air, I want

140
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 4: to talk about here, Randy A Rosearina in the leadoff spot, right,

141
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 4: that's something I haven't figured out since he got put

142
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 4: in the leadoff spot. Now, they've been winning games, so

143
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 4: we've kind of exhored it.

144
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 3: But it's not that Randy has succeeded.

145
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 4: Randy probably has the worst strike zone of any Mariner hitter,

146
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 4: and he's.

147
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 2: Your leadoff guy.

148
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 4: The guy swings for a four hundred and twenty five

149
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 4: foot home run every single time he swings the bat.

150
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 4: And guess what, he hadn't had a home run in

151
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 4: over one hundred bats until yesterday when you, as you mentioned,

152
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 4: he did it in a Devait.

153
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, look, we know that not every move is

154
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: gonna work, right, I mean, there's gonna be some kind

155
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: of hole. There's gonna be some move that a manager

156
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: makes that's just not gonna work out. And yeah, I'm

157
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: looking up Randy's you know, splits in the in the

158
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: bat in the in the leadoff spot. He's actually hitting

159
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: two to eighteen with a six forty five OPS in

160
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: the leadoff spot in fifty three games this year. And

161
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 1: that's not including the playoffs. So those numbers are actually

162
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: overall or even worse. And it's by far his worst spot,

163
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: by far his worst spot in the batting line.

164
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 2: Well, he's out there. He's out there again tonight.

165
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: Cal Rowley hitting second, Julio third, Polanco is gonna be

166
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: at d H because they got Leo Riovas at second base,

167
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: Naylor Suarez can zones in rights or Robless has the

168
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: day off at least from starting and then two and

169
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 1: then JP it's shortstop. But you know, look, I mean, guys,

170
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: we can sit here and break down all these numbers

171
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 1: and blah blah blah. I'm where I'm coming from right now.

172
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: As a fan, I think we're gonna get it.

173
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 5: Tonight.

174
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: I think the Mariners win tonight. I think they go

175
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: up three games to one. Tomorrow's going to be a zoo.

176
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: I again, if I can't wake up and feel good,

177
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: and there's nerves no matter who's starting in the playoffs, right,

178
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: Randy Johnson came in from the bullpen in Game five

179
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: and ninety five and people are losing their freaking minds,

180
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: and he actually gave up the lead. People forget that

181
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: before Edgar had that double right, So not everything works,

182
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: I get it. But if you're telling me before this

183
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: series starts, we're up two games to one with Luis

184
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: Castillo the Rock, and there's a reason why they call

185
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: him the rock, steady veteran presence against a forty one

186
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: year old and Max Shurtzer, who's got an ERA over five,

187
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: it is not nearly as good as he used to be.

188
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: I'm saying, sign me up. I'll take that matchup. But

189
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 1: if the Mariners don't get this done tonight and they

190
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 1: go to Game five tomorrow, Tide, I'm going into full

191
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: blown panic mode.

192
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 2: As a matter of face. You know me better than anybody.

193
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 2: That's just the way I am.

194
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 4: Well, and I think I think it's fair. I mean,

195
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 4: I like, my level of concern for the series is

196
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 4: about a.

197
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 2: Four right now. Yeah, what if they lose tonight, it's

198
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 2: an eight.

199
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 3: I think it doubles.

200
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 6: Now.

201
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 4: That's probably too much versus the percentages of them still winning.

202
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: That's unlike you to allow yourself to swing that much emotionally.

203
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 4: Past I know, I know, but you I mean, I

204
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 4: would be there would be a date of depression if

205
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 4: I'm leaving that stadium tonight after a.

206
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 2: LOSSUS two two.

207
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 4: However, at some point between me leaving that stadium, if

208
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 4: we do lose and doing the show tomorrow, I will

209
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 4: probably come to my wits and say, well.

210
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 3: Wait, wait a second.

211
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 4: All we need to have happen win two games is

212
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 4: them to win Friday, take one of three at home,

213
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 4: winch Friday, and they just win one of two in Toronto.

214
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: Again, you're talking about some serious momentum. You're talking about

215
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: facing a Blue Jay team that again has more wins

216
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: at home than any other American League playoff team. I'm

217
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,719
Speaker 1: not saying that what happened in Games one and two

218
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: was a fluke, but for them to get beat like

219
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: that the way they did kind of was kind of

220
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: was you know, with the way their season went at

221
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: Rogers Center this year. So I mean, look, you know,

222
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: every every game that we keep going here, biggest game

223
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: in twenty four years, and maybe you can argue the

224
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: biggest game in Mariner history right now. I mean they

225
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: were they were down, you know, three games to one.

226
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: They were down three games to two going into game

227
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: five and game six of the ALCS, And I'm watching

228
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: that train wreck in front of my very eyes develop

229
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 1: and a lot of other people have quoted the same instance,

230
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, man, this this looks familiar. Oh, this

231
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: is like us when we went to Yankee Stadium and

232
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: kicked their ass in game three. Right after they came

233
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: here and beat us in two games, we went there,

234
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,199
Speaker 1: kicked their ass in game three and then guess what happened,

235
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: lost a heartbreaker, heartbreaker.

236
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 2: In game four, and then got waxed in game five.

237
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 2: We thought we were gonna win game and it was over. Yep,

238
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 2: and it was over. So let's do that.

239
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: But let's play the role of the Yankees exactly in

240
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 1: this series, because so far the series is going exactly

241
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: the way that series did from a Yankee perspective. All Right,

242
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna break two thirteen Mike Homgan's gonna join. We'll

243
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: get his thoughts on Tonight's all right? What would he

244
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: say to the boys? Come out on ninety three to

245
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: three KJRF.

246
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,440

255
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 1: You know, I wonder if our next guest knows how

256
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: much coaches and players and professional sports just stress us

257
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 1: out beyond belief.

258
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 2: Like do they even care about the little people? Do

259
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: they even care about us?

260
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: And the fact that we have no control over any

261
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: of this whatsoever. Have to sit there and allow our

262
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: moods to be dictated by people we've never even met, for.

263
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 4: Crying out loud. At least he can pull the strings

264
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 4: call the place. He's got some impact.

265
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 2: Mike Congrin's with us.

266
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: Coach, do you have any idea how much this stuff

267
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: just stresses out people like us?

268
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 2: And do you even care? Did you care when you coached? Honestly?

269
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 6: Oh, I really cared a lot. I really did. I

270
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 6: had to take care of my I had to take

271
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 6: care of my my own moods first. Yeah, but then

272
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 6: I always had particularly you know, and you always accused

273
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 6: me of yelling at you that I practiced that one time.

274
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you did, by the way. Yeah, there's no.

275
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 6: Don't I don't see. I have no remembrance of that

276
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 6: at all. None. It's out of my memory bank.

277
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: Well, this is one of those games tonight. Before we

278
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 1: talk some football with you, I just got to get

279
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: your thoughts. I mean, you're a you're a coach, you're

280
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: a teacher, you're a competitor. You've been around organized athletics

281
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 1: your entire life. Man, Uh, Mariners get spank last night?

282
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 1: You know, how do you how do you shake something

283
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: like that off? And baseball is different than football, I

284
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 1: get it, But you know, what's the what's the advice

285
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: for these guys shaking that off and getting right back

286
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: out there again tonight.

287
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 6: Well, they shown they've shown that ability all season long.

288
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 6: First of all, that's what they've been able to do,

289
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 6: and I expect them to do the same.

290
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 4: You know.

291
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 6: It surprised me though, that game last night surprised me.

292
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 6: I don't. I don't usually watch baseball now this season,

293
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 6: all the way through, at this time of the year,

294
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 6: but uh, you know, and I didn't last night after

295
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 6: they got bombed pretty good and then I turned it off.

296
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 6: But but they they will bounce back, and I expect

297
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 6: them to have a really good game today and win it.

298
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 6: You know.

299
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 4: John Schmoltz on the broadcast last night said, hey, it's

300
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 4: it's easier to bounce back after a loss like this

301
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 4: than it is to bounce back after just a heartbreaker.

302
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 2: Would you would you agree with that? In football and

303
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 2: in baseball?

304
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 6: I would. I think I would. You know, I think

305
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 6: I would, Because when you have it in your grasp

306
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 6: and you can see, you know, you can see the win,

307
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 6: and then it gets slips away right at the end,

308
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 6: that's tough, and it sticks with you, just like losing

309
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 6: Super Bowls. It sticks with you longer. But when you

310
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 6: get bombed out like that, you go go, kid, does

311
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 6: you know, wash your hands, let's go as a new day.

312
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean halfway through that thing, you just realize

313
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: it's over. The hell with it, right, Let's get out

314
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: of here and get home and get our bullpen set

315
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 1: for tomorrow. But Mike Congren's with us, and man, I mean,

316
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: fairly big game Monday Night football coming here on Monday

317
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: night at seven o'clock against the Houston Texans. I mean,

318
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:54,719
Speaker 1: let's hope it doesn't go this far, but it could

319
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 1: be a crazy night because game seven MIC of the

320
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 1: Alcs except for about five o'clock as well on Monday night.

321
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: But give me your thoughts on what the Seahawks did

322
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: going down to Jacksonville.

323
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 2: And beating the team.

324
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: I think you thought they were in a good spot

325
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: coming off their emotional win against Kansas City. They head

326
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: down there and they take care of business three thousand

327
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: miles away. And now, for as bad as the Hawks

328
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: have been at home under McDonald, he's won nine in a.

329
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 2: Row and he's ten and one on the road. How

330
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 2: about that?

331
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 6: No road The road record is unbelievable, I mean really is.

332
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 6: And so now we just got to fix what. I

333
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 6: don't know what's happening at home on a cage. I

334
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 6: don't know what's effecting that record, but we got to

335
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 6: fix that. But that win was a big win. Now,

336
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 6: having said that, you know, I think people were overrating

337
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 6: Jacksonville just a little bit because of the win that

338
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 6: they had the week before. And I think watching the

339
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 6: quarterback play for Jacksonville, who I hadn't seen very much,

340
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 6: he disappointed me. He held the ball too long. It

341
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 6: seemed like to me, he missed some throws he should

342
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 6: have made. And he's a he's a he's the guy

343
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 6: that has to take them to the top and and

344
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 6: he didn't do it in that game. And he got

345
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 6: to give credit to the Seahawks. They're defensive line and put

346
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 6: a lot of pressure on him and I think eventually

347
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 6: won the game for him.

348
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 4: Coach, the age old question for years here was why

349
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 4: aren't we getting the ball to DK Metcalf more? And

350
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 4: now DK Metcalf has gone and we've got a wide

351
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 4: receiver that is on pace to break the all time

352
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 4: NFL record for yards in a season in Jackson Smith

353
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 4: and Jigmas, So why.

354
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 3: Are we able to get the ball to JSN more.

355
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 6: Well. You know, it's a good question. I think I

356
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 6: think he he's a better you know, Metcalf was all unbelievable,

357
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 6: but he I think he had strengths running down the field, speed,

358
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 6: direct routes, those types of things, throwing the ball deep

359
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 6: to them and then run after the catch. I think,

360
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 6: and jigma is he really is to me a very

361
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 6: smart receiver who knows where the areas are aust when

362
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 6: the quarter has to move. That's the first thing. The

363
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 6: second thing is, I think Donald's off to a great start.

364
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 6: I think Donald is running the offense and running it

365
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 6: the way it should be run, and he's throwing balls

366
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 6: on time, and I think it all it's all coming together.

367
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 6: But your point is a good one, Dick. I mean,

368
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 6: this young guy. He's not as big, no one's as

369
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 6: big as Metcalf, but he's really good. And and I

370
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 6: think the receiver group right now, with kup porton those

371
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 6: three and then Jim, that's a good group. I'd like

372
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 6: to have that group throwing the tight ends too.

373
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: You know, Mike, A lot of people last year had

374
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: an issue with the Seahawks running game, right. A lot

375
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: of people did that. Ryan Grubb wasn't running the ball off,

376
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: he's throwing the ball too much.

377
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah.

378
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: They averaged four point two yards per carry last year.

379
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: Now they're averaging three point seven yards per carry. They're

380
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: down almost a half a yard per carry versus where

381
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: they were a year ago. So I think if you

382
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: were to have told somebody that before the season started,

383
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: they would have said, well, there's no way they're four

384
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: and two, and there's no way they're a fumble away

385
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: from five to one. Yet here they are, right, So

386
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: I guess the question is, unless they can find the

387
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: consistent running game, is this approach sustainable?

388
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 6: Honestly, that's that's a good question, Dave. I think they've

389
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 6: got to get better in the running game to really

390
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 6: get where they want to get to. That's first of all.

391
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 6: You know, I don't I don't think it's sustainable, even

392
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 6: though their passing game is very, very effective. I'm rather

393
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 6: disappointed in how they're running the ball right now. And

394
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 6: it's not I don't think it's because of the backs.

395
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 6: I think they're having questions up front, and I think

396
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 6: it's they continue to have questions up front and until

397
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 6: they get that fixed and situated. Just with the way

398
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 6: they want it. They might. They might because they're stressing this.

399
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 6: They this was so important to them, and they wanted

400
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 6: to be good at it, and they practiced a different style.

401
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 6: But now it's not paying off the way they thought

402
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 6: it would. So they still have some work to do upfront.

403
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 4: So coach Sam Darnold's only been sacked seven times in

404
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 4: six games. Gino Smith was sacked fifty times last year.

405
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: So either Gray Zabel.

406
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 4: Is the second coming of Steve Hutchinson and he's a

407
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 4: first ballot Hall of Famer because that's really the only

408
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 4: change in the offensive line, or Sam Donald's just much

409
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 4: better handling pressure than Gino is. So like, how do

410
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 4: you balance those two things and what holds more weight?

411
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 6: Well, like I said, I really believe the offensive line

412
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 6: has work to do, even in the protecting the quarterback Dick,

413
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 6: I really think so. But having said that, I think

414
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 6: what Donald gives you. He throws the ball on time,

415
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 6: it's back Boom's plant throw. You watch when he throws.

416
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 6: He doesn't hold the ball and drift, and if he

417
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 6: does hold the ball, he's dumping it off right away.

418
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 6: He knows, Okay, I can't hold the ball in the

419
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 6: pocket that long I'm gonna get sacked, and I think

420
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 6: Gino that's an area of his game that could have

421
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 6: been better. I mean, I thought he was really pretty good,

422
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 6: but then you know, not holding it hoping for the

423
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 6: big one, just drunk and drug, drop it off, get

424
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 6: it to somebody, gain some yards, Live for another day,

425
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 6: and I think Donald is really good at that.

426
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: Well, Mike, you mentioned sacks. Denver Broncos are kind of

427
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: lapping the field in that category, but right behind him

428
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 1: as the Seahawks, at number two in the NFL, tied

429
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: for second in sacks with Pittsburgh. Now, obviously a lot

430
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 1: of that's due to last week when they got seven

431
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: off the Jaguars, but I'm kind of wondering, what did

432
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: you see them do because we used injuries. We kind

433
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: of used injuries some folks did as an excuse for

434
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay game. And maybe the Bucks are just

435
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: that good of an offense. But they went down to

436
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: Jacksonville and they were also banged up, and they had

437
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: seven sacks and the scheme was the star against the Jaguars.

438
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: So how did they play Jacksonville and get seven sacks

439
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: against a team that had allowed six in the first

440
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: five games.

441
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 2: Of the season.

442
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 6: Well, first of all, I got to give credit to

443
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 6: the young guys who came in and played in the

444
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 6: secondary for the starters, because we were banged up in

445
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 6: the secondary. And typically if I'm going in against the

446
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 6: team with the secondary that's banged up like that, I'm

447
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 6: licking my lips. I mean, we're going to get at

448
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 6: from hard. And but then you flip it over and

449
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 6: if you watch the film again, he's holding the ball.

450
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 6: You know. I don't look at it like Hugh does

451
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 6: when he's studying all this stuff what's happening downfield.

452
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 2: But he was.

453
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 6: Holding the ball too long on a lot of plays

454
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 6: that allow him to get sacked. Thirdly, however, the pass

455
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 6: Russ was really good. They put pressure on him, you know,

456
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 6: and and they're really doing that very well. The te

457
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 6: stunts in particular with the tent and the defensive end

458
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 6: and the tackle crossing over each other. Jacksonville had no

459
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 6: answer for that. Wow had no answer for that, And

460
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 6: so it led to a great, great defensive effort by

461
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 6: the Seahawks.

462
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 4: Coach Tarik Wollan reportedly is being shopped. How aggressively were

463
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 4: you would you pursue pursue shopping Tarik Wollan if you

464
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 4: could get tell him for who the role right now,

465
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 4: it's they're talking about Devon h Chan, who's the starting

466
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,719
Speaker 4: running back for the Miami Dolphins. If you think that

467
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 4: the running backs of the issue in Seattle. H has

468
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 4: got a lot of talent, there's no question about it,

469
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 4: but he hasn't broken out yet and he's you know,

470
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 4: kind of injured at times.

471
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 6: I'd be surprised if they make the deal. Of course

472
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 6: I've said this a number of times and they've made deals,

473
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 6: but I'd be surprised in the middle of the season

474
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 6: you make a deal like that because I don't I

475
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 6: don't think the running backs are the problem. I already

476
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 6: said it, and I think it's upfront, and so I think,

477
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 6: I think you don't need to do that. And then Wolan,

478
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 6: you know, to trade away a guy who started for

479
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 6: you at corner for the good portion of his career

480
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,360
Speaker 6: while he was here, I think it'd be a mistake

481
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 6: because you do have the injuries to deal with. He

482
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 6: has some injuries to deal with. He will come back

483
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 6: in and play, and if you're going to do something,

484
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 6: you do it at the end of the year. I

485
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 6: don't think, right now would be the way to do it.

486
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: Mike, you mentioned the stunts the Seahawks were using against Jacksonville,

487
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: and I was going to ask you just a follow

488
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: up on that, because I remember telling Dick, you know,

489
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 1: my whole take on this thing. I think that the

490
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 1: two biggest stars of the show right now where Sam

491
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: Darnold and Mike McDonald's defensive scheme. That's why I didn't

492
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: want to use injuries as an excuse against Tampa Bay,

493
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: and we didn't use them against the Jaguars because they

494
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 1: were phenomenal on defense. Right, And again, maybe there is

495
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: just that big of a drop in talent, But do

496
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 1: you ever remember coaching against a coach, whether a coordinator

497
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: or a head coach, where it really didn't matter who

498
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: was out there, the scheme was such a problem for

499
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: you that it drove you bananas.

500
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, there are a couple of teams, you know. First

501
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 6: of all, way back when we played the Chicago Bears,

502
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 6: when they had Buddy Ryan, and he had a scheme

503
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 6: that not many people in the league had, and so

504
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 6: where your preparation for the week was really different, and

505
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 6: that was a challenge, a huge challenge. The other one

506
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 6: was Pittsburgh Pittsburgh to me, every time we played them

507
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 6: wherever I was coaching, it was it was a game.

508
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 2: You know.

509
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 6: My second game, my third game coaching was against Bill

510
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 6: Kawer and the Steelers in Green Bay. We didn't score

511
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 6: a lot of points. We won the game, but their

512
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 6: defense was always. They were just good. You know, they

513
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 6: were disciplined that they were they they were in the

514
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 6: right spots, they tackled well, they were just good. So

515
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 6: you had to be really good on offense to score points.

516
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 6: So those are those are the two. And then New

517
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 6: York times. Of course with Taylor and all those guys,

518
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 6: they were very special.

519
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 4: Coach I said the beginning of the season, I thought

520
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 4: it'd be a total waste of talent if Jalen Milroe

521
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 4: just sat on the bench and never played.

522
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 3: And he's sitting on the bench were playing.

523
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 4: But I tell you what, I guess I don't yearn

524
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 4: for him to play as much now as I did

525
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 4: before because I had no idea this passing game would

526
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 4: be as explosive as it is With Sam Darks, I thought,

527
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 4: I struggle to move the ball, So what how would

528
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 4: you use Jalen Milroe?

529
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 6: Well, you know what he you know, puts a smile

530
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 6: on my face, because that's what we all thought, that

531
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 6: he'd be inserted in there a little like that guy

532
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 6: from New Orleans was when he before. Now he's the

533
00:23:55,760 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 6: starting quarterback, but you know, he's a couple of plays

534
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 6: he's had it hasn't worked. So I think they made

535
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 6: a pretty good decision that if they were planning on

536
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 6: playing him, and he might still play, you know, but

537
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 6: if they're playing on playing him, just just don't don't

538
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 6: wreck the guy. Just let you know, let him watch,

539
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 6: let him learn things are going well. If I'm inserting

540
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 6: him in the game, maybe I don't need to, because

541
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 6: maybe I just want to get cute, you know, just

542
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 6: let him just just let him watch and learn this

543
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 6: first year and then we'll start doing more next year.

544
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 6: But listen, I think I could be wrong about this.

545
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 6: You guys tell me. I think he's only had three plays, yeah,

546
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 6: and and hasn't. It hasn't been lights out, you know,

547
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 6: at all. It hasn't worked. So yeah, well.

548
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,879
Speaker 2: Let's hope it works tonight.

549
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 6: Man.

550
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,600

00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 5: It's over. There's nothing we can do about it. Can't

644
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 5: for us to win ball game, and that's what we

645
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 5: plan on doing.

646
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 4: Does the coaching staff give that message to the team

647
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 4: or there are a bunch of veterans you you know

648
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 4: that they've already they already know that.

649
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 5: Well, it's it's an over group that we have this year,

650
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 5: you know, with with with g O JP, Josh uh, Julio.

651
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 5: Although he's been the league four years now, Randy, they know,

652
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 5: they know tomorrow's over. It's a new day. Is you

653
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 5: know it's a chance for us to to win the

654
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 5: game and go up three to one.

655
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, does the does the vibe feel different from regular

656
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: season baseball to playoff baseball? Because I know that everyone

657
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: will say things like, hey man, every game is the same.

658
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: You take every bull crap as a fan, I'm I'm

659
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: freaking man, compared to this versus the regular season. So

660
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: do you feel that different vibe in that clubhouse right now?

661
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 5: Well, usually there's you like five or six reporters and

662
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 5: a couple of news uh news tasks going on. But

663
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 5: now there's like one hundred out here. So the bustle,

664
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 5: the different atmosphere, the different coverage and the national coverage. Uh,

665
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 5: it gets the players pumped up, not that they're not

666
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 5: during the regular season, but you know there's once you

667
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 5: come out of the dug out the tunnel and get

668
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 5: mark up on the field, you know something's different.

669
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 3: Coach SOFTI mentioned distress.

670
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 4: How how do you let that stress help you defensively

671
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 4: instead of letting it get the better of you defensively,

672
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 4: what do you communicate to your guys and how how

673
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 4: do they take that.

674
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 5: Preparation. Yeah, you know, we do a ground ball routine

675
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,479
Speaker 5: every day and somewhere in the routine there's probably a

676
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 5: ball or two that is going to happen tonight. He's

677
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 5: going to be hit to you in this fashion in

678
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:30,479
Speaker 5: this situation. Studying hinters tendencies, you know where they hit

679
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 5: the ball more often. It's preparation. If you're prepared, then

680
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 5: you're ready to play any ame. Mother it's Merch thirty,

681
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 5: first opening day, or if it's October sixteenth, game four

682
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 5: of the ac ALCS.

683
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: Well Perry Hill Mariner infield coaches with us and coach.

684
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 1: You're making the move with Leo at second base tonight,

685
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: tell us about what went into making that move and

686
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: giving him the start at second tonight.

687
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 5: I wish I could answer that question. That's the question

688
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 5: for Dan. I have nothing to do with the lineups. Yeah,

689
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 5: they give me six infielders and that's my job is

690
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 5: to get them prepared and hope they play well during

691
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 5: the course of the game. But I have nothing to

692
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 5: do with lineup construction.

693
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. But let me ask you about Leo

694
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,239
Speaker 1: and why you think he's ready for this. I mean

695
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: you know him better than we do behind the scenes.

696
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: I mean we've seen him be clutched for you guys.

697
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 1: Tell us more about Leo behind the scenes and what

698
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: he's done preparation wise to be ready for this game tonight.

699
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 5: Leo's a good, good player. He makes all the plays.

700
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 5: He's fundamentally sound. He'll give you a good at bad.

701
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 5: He'll take a walk, he won't chase, he won't overswing.

702
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 5: He knows who he is. He stays within himself, and

703
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 5: players like that are consistent. I mean he's played for

704
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 5: nine ten years in the minor leagues.

705
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: I mean.

706
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 5: He's prepared. You know, he's probably hadn't been on this

707
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 5: biggest stage before that. Certainly didn't hurting the other day

708
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 5: against the Tigers.

709
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

710
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 4: Do you prepare differently before the game based upon the

711
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 4: pitcher that you have on the mound?

712
00:31:58,480 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 3: Like you know yesterday.

713
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 4: Obviously George's we're on a lot of sinkers, you know,

714
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 4: do you prepare for when when you have a sinker

715
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 4: ball pitcher on the mound? Do you prepare differently than

716
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 4: if you have I'm more of a four seemer on

717
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 4: a fastball guy on the mount.

718
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 5: Well, that's a question for Kevin Seitzer.

719
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 4: And Edgar I mean defensively, yeah, oh for you Mariners, Yes,

720
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 4: when the Mariners have a different picture on the mount.

721
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 5: Yes, well, yes, okay, yeah, sorry I misunderested question. Uh yes, yes,

722
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 5: I mean you don't play everybody the same way every day.

723
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 5: Has a lot to do with the pitching plan, and

724
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 5: it has a lot to do how they adjust as

725
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 5: a hitter to the plans. So I mean you may

726
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 5: see Leo play Blaby one way the first inning, and

727
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 5: by the time the sixth inning gets around him, maybe

728
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 5: play him a different way because maybe he's bloody swing

729
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 5: is changing. You know, a lot of these guys are

730
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 5: big home run hitters and swing hard. Maybe they do

731
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 5: the first two three innings, but you know, especially in

732
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 5: a playoff atmosphere, if there's rbies out there on base,

733
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 5: they'll change your swing to get those runs here. So

734
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 5: defensively we have to be in two with that as well.

735
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 2: I love it.

736
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 1: Hey, listen, I've never asked you for anything in my life,

737
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 1: and if you give me this, you don't even have

738
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: to buy me a Hanika present.

739
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 2: Just get me a win. Tonight. All right, coach, that's

740
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 2: all I want.

741
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, they'll be for myself as well.

742
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 2: Done. Done, Hey, good luck tonight.

743
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 5: Perry Okay, thanks, okay, thank you, sir.

744
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 2: You bet.

745
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,719
Speaker 1: Likewise, Perry Hill with us Mariner infield, coach, we got

746
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: a couple minutes. What do you say we kind of

747
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: revisit more of the Dan Wilson pregame dick with the

748
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: media where he did announce that Bryce Miller we'll start

749
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: tomorrow and Brian will be coming out of the pen.

750
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: Here's Dan's thoughts on tonight's game, starting with a question

751
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: about the lineup tonight against the Blue Jays.

752
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 5: Dan, today's lineup Canzone in the field, Roeblist starting on

753
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 5: the bench.

754
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 8: Just what kind of one to the mindset to make

755
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 8: that decision for today's game? Yeah, I mean, I think,

756
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 8: you know, we've seen some really good at bats from

757
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 8: from Leo throughout his time with our club, certainly the

758
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 8: game against Detroit, you know, picking up that huge pinch

759
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 8: hit knock, and uh, you know, what he's done at

760
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 8: second base is stellar as well. So getting a chance

761
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 8: to get him in there, and and you know, I

762
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 8: think it should.

763
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 2: Work out well.

764
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 8: Dom has played right field all season for US and

765
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 8: and handles that well. And and you know allows Polo

766
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 8: a chance to d h tonight. So you know, just

767
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 8: a good time to get Leo in the lineup and

768
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 8: you have a Game five starter. Yeah, Bryce Miller will

769
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 8: take the hill Forest tomorrow night. And uh, you know,

770
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 8: obviously pitched well against Toronto and in the first game,

771
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 8: and and you know, looking forward to giving him to.

772
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 2: Baltimore being that Bryce is sorry tomorrow.

773
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,720
Speaker 9: What is the plan for Brian at this point?

774
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, Brian's gonna be available out of the pen,

775
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 8: and and you know, I think that's the plan here

776
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 8: going forward. And and uh, you know, he's he's in

777
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,439
Speaker 8: good spot and is you know, he's feeling good and

778
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 8: and you know, I think at this point that's that's

779
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 8: where we're gonna see him coming out of the pen.

780
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 4: Dan's Victor oblis full strength after going into the board's

781
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 4: kind of hard yesterday today.

782
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, he's fine. You know, a great catch, great effort,

783
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 8: which is you know what we always see from Victor,

784
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 8: and as we talked about last night, sort of reminiscent

785
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,879
Speaker 8: of that play in San Francisco. But you know, going

786
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 8: in there hard but but you know, that's that's the

787
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 8: effort you always get from Victor Dan.

788
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 2: What what are.

789
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 10: The challenges that Brian might now face transitioning into a

790
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 10: role that he hasn't had, at least at the big

791
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 10: league level. We know he did back in college.

792
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, I think obviously it's it's a different

793
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 8: kind of a role. You know, he had a chance

794
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 8: to do it in the All Star Game, so maybe

795
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 8: a little bit of experience coming and coming out of

796
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 8: a pen. But uh, you know, again this is this

797
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 8: is the time of year where you ask people to

798
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 8: do things that that they're not as comfortable doing or

799
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 8: they haven't done as much. But uh, you know, he's

800
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 8: got a wealth of people that will help him. You know,

801
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 8: the Rock Uh, Logan Gilbert did it recently. They can help.

802
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 8: So I think I think he'll be in good shape.

803
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 8: And again I think he's excited to get back out.

804
00:35:58,400 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 2: Okay, there you go.

805
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: So Bryce Miller starting tomorrow, and it sounds like when

806
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: you said going forward that Brian Woo's gonna be in

807
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 1: the bullpen, maybe even for.

808
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 2: The World Series if they make it.

809
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,800
Speaker 1: We'll see, but that sets up potentially Dick Bryce Miller

810
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: tomorrow Logan Gilbert again on Sunday, and then on Monday night,

811
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,320
Speaker 1: you're either gonna have your pick of George Kirby in

812
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: Game seven who pitched yesterday, or potentially Luis Castillo on

813
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 1: four days rest on Monday night in Toronto.

814
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 4: If it goes that far, you have at least a

815
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 4: wash every game, if not the advantage. So you've got

816
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 4: a wash when Gossman's on the mound. You've got an

817
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 4: advantage when everybody else is on the mound. So there's

818
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,280
Speaker 4: no reason why they shouldn't take care of this series.

819
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: Well, tonight they got the big advantage, I think with

820
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:45,319
Speaker 1: Castillo and Scherzer. So we'll see game number four coming

821
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 1: up tonight at five thirty eight. Rick Newheisl's going to

822
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: join us and talk about a fairly important Husky game

823
00:36:50,239 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 1: as well. On Saturday next on ninety three three KJRFM.

824
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 10: You're home for college football set as is live with

825
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 10: CBS Sports analyst Rick new Heiseel, powered by Taco Time.

826
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 10: Hungry at Taco Time, It's easy to create exactly what

827
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 10: you're craving, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

828
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 10: How do you Taco Time customize your mealing order? Ahead

829
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,280
Speaker 10: on the Taco time Northwest Taco time. Time for something

830
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 10: different now with Rick new Heisel, here's Softy and Dick.

831
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: All right, we are back at Jimmy's getting ready for

832
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: a Game four of the ALCS.

833
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 2: And I was just thinking about this.

834
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,240
Speaker 1: At the last time the Mariners were in the American

835
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: League Championship Series, the Huskies had a guy who had

836
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 1: a connection to UCLA. Now the M's are back in

837
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 1: the ALCS, and the Huskies have a guy who's got.

838
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 2: A connection to UCLA and Jed Fish.

839
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: Maybe that's all this takes, just hiring a guy with

840
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,839
Speaker 1: a connection to UCLA. Rick new Heidel joins us right now,

841
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 1: Curtesy at Taco time, How are you?

842
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 6: Man?

843
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,760
Speaker 9: I am well, And I just want to ask Dick there,

844
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 9: what level of anxiety do we have with our good friends.

845
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 4: Rick, you don't even you can't even fath it's beyond

846
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 4: it's off.

847
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 3: Whatever the chart was, it broke.

848
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 2: Listen, there's a Softy.

849
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 9: I want you to relax. You guys are going to

850
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 9: this series A yeah, you're going to the Fall Classic.

851
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 5: Just relax.

852
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 1: There's two reasons why I would bring an extra pair

853
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: of underwear with me for the game. Today, the game,

854
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: and the fact that I'm an old man now at

855
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 1: fifty two years old. Double whammy, it is. It's a

856
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: double whammy. Well, Rick, before we get your thoughts on

857
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 1: everything happening on the college football world, man, give us

858
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: a take on this, man. I mean, we talked to

859
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 1: Mike Holgrin about this from just a coach's perspective, a

860
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: teacher's perspective, and again, probably different in football because.

861
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 2: You have the week off.

862
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: But flushing that turn of a game last night and

863
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 1: just moving the hell on, how did these guys do

864
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 1: that and forget about it?

865
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 9: Well, he wasn't going to be as easy as it

866
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 9: felt in Toronto. I mean, so now you're back to

867
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 9: playing playoff baseball where you've got to scratch out runs

868
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 9: and find ways to win. But you've got a rocket

869
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 9: crowd behind you, and let's entertain them. You've got a

870
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 9: number of hot bats in that lineup, and I think

871
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 9: that who you got the rock tonight?

872
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 5: Caestillo.

873
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 2: Yep, come on, man, let's go. Let's get up three one,

874
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 2: let's go.

875
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 4: Well, Rick, Friday night, we had split screens, right we

876
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:19,319
Speaker 4: were watching the Mariners win over Detroit in the siding game,

877
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 4: and we were also watching Demon Williams put up Husky history,

878
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 4: and I'm wondering if there's a quarterback in college football

879
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 4: that has a better combination of legs and arm than

880
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 4: the one we have here in Seattle.

881
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 9: No, I don't think so. And I told you, guys,

882
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 9: I knew he could run, but when I went to

883
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 9: practice and saw that gifted throwing arm, I was like,

884
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 9: this guy's special. You know, Ohio State had a nice plan,

885
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 9: and I'm sure Michigan will try to emulate it to

886
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 9: keep him in the pocket and such. But that guy's really,

887
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 9: really a good player, and Jed's got to be having

888
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 9: a blast calling plays with him.

889
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, let's just keep on that team with this

890
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 1: game with Michigan, because I mean, guys, I gotta be

891
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,359
Speaker 1: honest with you. I would take Demon Williams over Bryce

892
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: Underwood right now ten times out of nine, not even close.

893
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,919
Speaker 1: I mean, Underwood may eventually, who knows, be the better star,

894
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: but I think Demon is way ahead of him. And

895
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 1: then number two, I see rick a Big ten team

896
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: in Michigan who's third in the conference against the run

897
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 1: on defense. But then I see a team that gave

898
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,320
Speaker 1: up one hundred and sixty yards to a walk on

899
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: on Saturday at USC So what happened?

900
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,919
Speaker 9: That's exactly right. Listen, you know Jed and I met

901
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 9: each other when we were both on the Raven staff

902
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 9: and the defensive coordinator with the Rex Ryan well Wink Martindale,

903
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 9: the coordinator for Michigan, is a huge Rex Ryan guy.

904
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 9: He's like the third brother with Rob and Rex and such.

905
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 9: So you saw that they were able to run the

906
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,960
Speaker 9: ball well over two hundred yards. As you mentioned the

907
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 9: backup running back having one hundred and sixty of them.

908
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 9: This won't shock me at all that Jed will have

909
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 9: a plan to run the ball against Michigan.

910
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 6: And again, as you mentioned.

911
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 9: Bryce Underwood is a very talented guy. The only advantage

912
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,360
Speaker 9: he has over Demon is that he's bigger, but Demon

913
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 9: is gifted as a is way more gifted in terms

914
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,439
Speaker 9: of the amounts of types of throws that he has

915
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 9: command over. Bryce is a fastball pitcher. Demon has every

916
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:19,479
Speaker 9: pitch in the book.

917
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 4: How would you evaluate the job Searan Moore has done

918
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 4: at Michigan has head coach so far, I.

919
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 5: Give him a C plus.

920
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 9: I mean he got handed.

921
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 6: You know, a national championship team.

922
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 9: There have been and obviously the victory over Ohio State

923
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 9: last year was is the feather in his cap? And

924
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 9: then they cap that off with a win over Alabama.

925
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 9: But this is this is a different this is a

926
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 9: different animal, and I still don't see enough development in

927
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,320
Speaker 9: the offense to call it anything higher than C plus.

928
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 2: Right.

929
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: Well, Rick, I'm not sure if you're watching this or

930
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: not at all, but Jacob mon wh who's a linebacker

931
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 1: for you, dub is suing the X the ncuble A

932
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 1: because he wants another year. He's part of that five

933
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 1: for five lawsuit right against the NCUBLEA and right now

934
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,799
Speaker 1: he doesn't have it yet, So that means he's only

935
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 1: got two more games left to play in the regular

936
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: season before he burns the red shirt. So Jed's got

937
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: to figure out which two games to play him in

938
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 1: until he hear's back from the nc double A. Is

939
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: this Michigan game one of those games that you would pick?

940
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 5: Yeah? I think so.

941
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 9: I mean, just given the fact that this is a

942
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,960
Speaker 9: leg up in the conference standings, gives Washington a real

943
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 9: chance to make a stretch run. And I know we

944
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 9: say the games they remember played in November, but when

945
00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,240
Speaker 9: you win in the big House, it's an incredible shot

946
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 9: in the arm for the rest of your season.

947
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 4: What do you make of what you saw at Augsin

948
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 4: with Indiana on Saturday.

949
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 9: It wasn't an accident. It wasn't an accident, and neither

950
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 9: was an accident that he got twelve million a year today.

951
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 9: That was a phenomenal job by coach Signetty. He's done,

952
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 9: you know, a miracle there at Indiana, and I'm happy

953
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,319
Speaker 9: as I can be for him. But yeah, they kept

954
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 9: their edges on defense, they were stout offensively, and Mendoza

955
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 9: has an NFL arm.

956
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:13,320
Speaker 2: I'm happy he's staying in Indiana.

957
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't give two licks for that Indiana football,

958
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,319
Speaker 1: but I am thrilled because I'm getting tired Rick all

959
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: the coaches moving around from team to team, and I'm

960
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 1: glad he's staying there.

961
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 2: Do you think I am right?

962
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,960
Speaker 1: Would this start maybe a trend you think of coaches saying, look,

963
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: if that guy can stay at Indie freaking Anna, I

964
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:31,439
Speaker 1: can stay where I'm at.

965
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 9: Well, I think the trend's going to be for athletic

966
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 9: directors to wrap up coaches that are successful. I think

967
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 9: Candas story riat Vanderbilt's going to try to do the

968
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 9: same thing with Clark Lee Eli Drinkwitz is going to

969
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 9: get a big offer from Missouri to stay right there,

970
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:49,239
Speaker 9: and that's great for the entirety of the program and

971
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 9: the longevity of success for the program. You know, Signetti

972
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 9: took a program that had one win in its history

973
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 9: over a top five team, and that was back in

974
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 9: nineteen sixty seven at home. They get this win on

975
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,320
Speaker 9: the road. That's just remarkable stuff. He's well deserving.

976
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 3: Well, I only care what it means for Washington.

977
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 4: So is this good for Washington that Indiana's relevant or

978
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 4: is it better for Washington had Signetti just gone and

979
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 4: to a great program already in Penn State and then

980
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:19,959
Speaker 4: Indiana just floats away.

981
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 9: No, I think it's you know, the Big Ten needs

982
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:26,760
Speaker 9: four teams that are you know, in the top twenty

983
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 9: right now. With Penn State's kind of just falling off

984
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 9: the cliff, there's some question about the depth of the

985
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 9: Big Ten, and you know, Washington and isn't getting nearly

986
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 9: enough credit. Again, they didn't have a real stout non

987
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 9: conference schedule. But that's why this game is so important.

988
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 9: They've got a chance to stop stamp themselves as authentic

989
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 9: with a victory in ann Arbor.

990
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,719
Speaker 2: Why aren't they getting more credit? You think at five

991
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:54,760
Speaker 2: and one.

992
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 9: They just they just didn't have the big win in

993
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 9: the non con you know, and when that that kind

994
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 9: of slows down the progress. They weren't part of the

995
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 9: original top twenty five. Another flaw on the system that

996
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,919
Speaker 9: we have these predeterminations as to who's going to be good.

997
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:13,840
Speaker 9: So I think this is a real chance for Washington

998
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 9: get what they deserve, which is to be considered amongst

999
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 9: the best teams in the country.

1000
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you what, man, there's a report out

1001
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: of Gainesville, and I think we've all seen this coming,

1002
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 1: that Billy Napier might be kind of getting close to

1003
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: the end.

1004
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:25,919
Speaker 2: Here.

1005
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 1: USA Today reporting that Scott Strickland, who's the eighty at Florida,

1006
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 1: met with multiple boosters on Tuesday and then on three

1007
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 1: came out and said, no, it's just they're big, they're

1008
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: big gun. They're one big booster down there, and that

1009
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,720
Speaker 1: the vetting process of candidates to replace him has already begun.

1010
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 1: I got to assume if jet Fish beats Michigan, he's

1011
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: six and one after what he inherited, is he going

1012
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:47,160
Speaker 1: to be on Florida's radar.

1013
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,800
Speaker 9: Oh, he'll definitely be on Florida's radar, but Pat Shun

1014
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 9: will be Press radar. They'll find a way to have

1015
00:45:56,719 --> 00:46:00,439
Speaker 9: a conversation and hopefully for all of us say hey,

1016
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,759
Speaker 9: let's let's stay here for as long as we can.

1017
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:05,720
Speaker 2: Is Kaylen de Boor's ship righted?

1018
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,239
Speaker 4: He's got another test this week, at least it's at

1019
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:09,280
Speaker 4: home against Tennessee.

1020
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 9: I think the ship is absolutely right and he's proving

1021
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 9: what he's proven at every place he's ever been, that

1022
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 9: he's got demand of an offense when he has a

1023
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,479
Speaker 9: quarter but he can trust and he certainly has one

1024
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,839
Speaker 9: in this kid, Ty Simpson. You know, Ty's dad is

1025
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 9: the head coach at Tennessee, Martin the Skyhawks, and so

1026
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 9: this kid grew up around it. I expect for Kaylin

1027
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 9: to finish the season, get to the college football playoff,

1028
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,839
Speaker 9: and Alabama to say this is exactly what we thought

1029
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 9: we were getting.

1030
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:39,920
Speaker 2: Rick.

1031
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 1: I don't think we've spoken since James Franklin got fired

1032
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: because it was a low Was it Northwestern last week

1033
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:47,359
Speaker 1: that they lost too?

1034
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 2: Is that correct? And then it was it was it

1035
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 2: was Jerry.

1036
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: Jerry drove him to one foot to the grave and

1037
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,399
Speaker 1: then Northwestern finished him off. Did they make the right

1038
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 1: call by firing James Franklin?

1039
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 9: I hate, I hate it, but when you're taking money

1040
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 9: from boosters to augment your program, you also have to

1041
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,760
Speaker 9: take their opinions, and that basically I think that figot

1042
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 9: of cash was about ready to get turned off if

1043
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 9: Pat Kraft didn't make the deal. So you know, I listen.

1044
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,880
Speaker 9: I was on a Rose Bowl team back in nineteen

1045
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 9: eighty three that was O three and one and ended

1046
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 9: up eating Illinois in the Rose Bowl, so I know

1047
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 9: you can turn things around. I would have liked for

1048
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 9: James Franklin, and I think James Franklin deserved the chance

1049
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:32,400
Speaker 9: to turn it around.

1050
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:33,439
Speaker 2: Who fits there?

1051
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,239
Speaker 3: It was not going to be Signetty, Is it Matt

1052
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:37,279
Speaker 3: Rule or who is it?

1053
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 9: Well Matt Rule. I think if Pat Kraft had his

1054
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 9: brothers they work together at Temple, that would be the

1055
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,279
Speaker 9: guy that he'd like to have. But they are going

1056
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 9: to be people that will push back because Rule, as

1057
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 9: good as he's been at, you know, doing reclamation projects

1058
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 9: at places like Temple and Baylor, he has yet to

1059
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:59,439
Speaker 9: really you know, show championship medal, and that might be

1060
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 9: more boosters saying that's exactly what we just had and

1061
00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 9: let go of. So let's find a championship guy. But again,

1062
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 9: if this trend continues where everybody who's got that kind

1063
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,239
Speaker 9: of DNA at least on their resume, if they keep

1064
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 9: getting better deals, you're gonna get stuck having to take

1065
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,399
Speaker 9: somebody that you just believe and get there.

1066
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:21,200
Speaker 1: Well, Rick Newhuzzle's with us, and guys, I just let's

1067
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 1: just go back a second, because we all know who

1068
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 1: the hottest name in college football coaching is right now,

1069
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:28,040
Speaker 1: Jerry fing Newheizel.

1070
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 2: I mean, dude, are you kidding me?

1071
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 9: Like I'm available for the Penn State job. I'll just

1072
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 9: say that right now.

1073
00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 1: I mean, does he I want you to answer this

1074
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 1: question like it's the three of us talking at the

1075
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,920
Speaker 1: five twenty bar and Grill having a drink.

1076
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 2: Does he have a shot?

1077
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:44,720
Speaker 9: That's always how I answer.

1078
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:46,839
Speaker 1: Okay, does he have a shot again that you see

1079
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,400
Speaker 1: all lead job full time, either staying on his coordinator

1080
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:50,959
Speaker 1: or getting the getting the big job.

1081
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 9: I don't think so. I would love it, and I

1082
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 9: know he could do it, and I just think they're

1083
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 9: desperate because of the hiring Deshaun without experience that they're

1084
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,279
Speaker 9: going to be forced to hire somebody with experience. The

1085
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,120
Speaker 9: guy who's going to be chief on that search firm

1086
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:12,760
Speaker 9: is a search committee is a guy the named Casey Wasserman.

1087
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 9: And I think Casey's going to be looking somebody that's

1088
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,839
Speaker 9: got a little uh more gray hair than Jerry Dead.

1089
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 2: Casey Wasserman is also Jedfish's agent. By the way, Doug

1090
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:23,279
Speaker 2: Hendrickson works for him.

1091
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:27,319
Speaker 9: To sing, you know, yeah, there you go. I'll just

1092
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 9: feed off of that, and I have everybody else on

1093
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 9: the search and everybody else on the search committee at

1094
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 9: UCLA is a Clay Ksey Wasserman client.

1095
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 2: How about that. I'll just you know, I'll just bounce

1096
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 2: off that.

1097
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 11: Then.

1098
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,799
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't see any reason why somebody would

1099
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 4: go from Washington to UCLA, especially with the financial situation

1100
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 4: ucl IN is. But am I wrong? I mean, is

1101
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,840
Speaker 4: that is that a place that Jedfish would do? You

1102
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:51,000
Speaker 4: think would investigate?

1103
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 9: Well, they'd have to make some real overtures and promises

1104
00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 9: about resources. You know, I've coached it, both of them,

1105
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:02,520
Speaker 9: and it was night and day in terms of the

1106
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 9: kind of help and support I got from the from

1107
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 9: the administration at Washington as compared to the administration at UCLA.

1108
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's do this before you go. Uh

1139
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 1: met with the media today. He was asked by a

1140
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 1: reporter what it would mean to see this team in

1141
00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 1: the World Series this season.

1142
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,920
Speaker 10: A lot lessions over the years, but they've never finched

1143
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,720
Speaker 10: a little series. You committed long term to the team

1144
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,520
Speaker 10: and you're two wins away from taking the team where

1145
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 10: it's never been.

1146
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:46,400
Speaker 2: What would that mean to you personally?

1147
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 11: Well, I mean the war, you know, like like I

1148
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,840
Speaker 11: kind of told it to Tyler, like that was the

1149
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 11: reason why, you know, like I signed here because I

1150
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 11: know I got to I got to know the fan

1151
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 11: base and like the hunger that the city had for

1152
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 11: like a championship. But I feel like that really motivated me.

1153
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,759
Speaker 11: You know, I feel like that's a that was being

1154
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,520
Speaker 11: a big challenge I don't shy away from challenges, and

1155
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,319
Speaker 11: I feel like that's something that like really motivated me

1156
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 11: to be here and just kind of saw seeing how

1157
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,400
Speaker 11: everybody was like really into it and like kind of

1158
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 11: motivated to like bringing a Championship of War series appearance

1159
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:19,160
Speaker 11: and things like that, and like, once you're in it,

1160
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,279
Speaker 11: you know you gotta you gotta go for everything. And

1161
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:22,840
Speaker 11: I feel like we're in a really good position to

1162
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 11: get to that spot right now.

1163
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what we talked earlier about guys like

1164
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 1: Suarez and a Rose Arena the playoffs.

1165
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 2: So Huio Rodriguez has been fine.

1166
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,960
Speaker 1: Eight eighty eight ops, three home runs, including a big

1167
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 1: bomb yesterday that put these guys up to nothing.

1168
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 2: So he is living up to the moment, no question

1169
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 2: about it.

1170
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 4: Yes, but he wasn't great last series, So I mean

1171
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 4: it is really just that's why we talked about the

1172
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 4: sample size. You know, a guy can have one great

1173
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 4: game and all of a sudden, his playoff stats look good.

1174
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 3: So I'm still holding out hope on guys like Randy A.

1175
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,120
Speaker 4: Roserain and Victor Roeblace and guys that just haven't come

1176
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 4: around yet. They give me that three for four day

1177
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 4: with a home run and all of a sudden, your

1178
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:04,800
Speaker 4: numbers look okay for the playoffs.

1179
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: Well, I just I don't know if the Mariners offense

1180
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:09,240
Speaker 1: can unload on anybody at this part because their numbers

1181
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: are so different. But what they can do is get

1182
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 1: phenomenal pitching. And like we said earlier, man you're gonna

1183
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:14,960
Speaker 1: lose a game, you may as well lose a game.

1184
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,399
Speaker 2: And rest everybody. And that's exactly what happened last night.

1185
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:22,640
Speaker 1: Turd Ferguson Vargas, Luke Jackson, Brash Spire, Munno's all the

1186
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 1: big guns, the mop who's now the man.

1187
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 2: We're all out for tonight.

1188
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:30,240
Speaker 1: So they're all available for this game, this evening against Toronto.

1189
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,160
Speaker 1: Simply put, got to get this done. Do not go

1190
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: back to Toronto. Do not give these guys the chance

1191
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:37,759
Speaker 1: to tie this thing up and say that you gotta

1192
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 1: win it in Toronto. If you're gonna win it, wrap

1193
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 1: it up tonight. Go up three games to one, and

1194
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,040
