Here on Cincy three sixty, Drew, was was 6 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 2: there a baseball game on TBS yesterday? 7 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 3: Two of them? 8 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 2: Okay, that makes sense because the TV and here is 9 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 2: on TBS and Friends is on And every time I 10 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: watch Friends, I always wonder why was it so cold 11 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 2: on the set? I wonder why it always looks freezing 12 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 2: on that set. 13 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,599 Speaker 4: I guess I never really thought about that, But now 14 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 4: that you say it, yeah it does. 15 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 2: What do you think Skinny thinks about that? Skinny ever 16 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 2: wonder about that? Why it was so cold on the 17 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 2: Friends set? 18 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 5: Never once wondered that. 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 3: Do you haven't watched close enough? 20 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 5: I know where you're doing with that. I never thought 21 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 5: about that. 22 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 2: Richard Skinner Local twelve Digital content Editor, Skinny, you're often 23 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: a voice of reason. 24 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 3: You're you're somebody I. 25 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 2: Go to to, uh put things in perspective. What is 26 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 2: a reasonable expectation of what this looks like with Joe 27 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 2: Flacco at the helm for the Bengals. 28 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 5: I honestly don't know, and I'm being serious about that 29 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 5: because you no, because the Joe facto of earlier this 30 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 5: year looked like a forty year old quarterback that was 31 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 5: being played out of desperation because they had two rookies 32 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 5: behind him up in Cleveland. But the arm is still there. 33 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 5: The thing that he's I mean, you can go back 34 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 5: all the way back is Baltimore is now. You did 35 00:01:58,400 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 5: have Steve Smith for a period of time, but for 36 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 5: the most part, he never really had great weapons about 37 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 5: receiver in Baltimore, didn't have that in Denver the year 38 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 5: he played in Denver. You know, had it kind of 39 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 5: last year with the Colts, but then their their main 40 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 5: guys got hurt, so he really didn't have it last 41 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 5: year with the Colts. This is probably the best weaponry 42 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 5: he's played with now. Certainly the offensive line is not 43 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 5: the best offensive line he's played behind, and that's gonna 44 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 5: factor into some of this. 45 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 3: But why I say. 46 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 5: I don't, I just don't know, because he can still 47 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 5: fling it. I saw some really good things in Cleveland 48 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 5: that the day the Bengals played there. In the opener, 49 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 5: you know, the two interceptions he threw literally were balls 50 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 5: that bounced off of receiver's hand each time, so there 51 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 5: were two ricochets that you know, he gets charged for 52 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 5: the interception, but you know, really kind of on the 53 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 5: receivers in the two cases. So I still see him 54 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 5: make some strong arm throws. I just that's why, I 55 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 5: just honestly don't know. 56 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 2: What does this offense look like Sunday? Like he's he's 57 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: gonna have what three days? Three practices? 58 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 3: Really to U. 59 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: Two practices gonna walk through? I was being kind on 60 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 2: the walk through being a practice, but he's not gonna 61 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 2: have enough a lot of time to get up to speed. 62 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 2: What do you think this offense looks like? And because 63 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: it's usually pretty simple, I don't know, as the word 64 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: it's not super complex? 65 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 3: How much does that help? 66 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 5: You know? Za Tale says them just a couple of 67 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 5: weeks ago that that, you know, when we look and 68 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 5: get bringing quarterbacks in here, we think our system is 69 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 5: one that they can pick up pretty quickly. Like the 70 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 5: verbiage is probably similar to other playbooks and all those 71 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 5: things too. You got a pretty smart guy. Joe Flatto 72 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 5: is a smart dude. He's done this before. I mean 73 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 5: did this two years ago in Cleveland, came off the 74 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 5: couch and was quickly starting. I think he had a week, 75 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 5: maybe an extra week to prepare, but he started pretty 76 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 5: quickly there. I mean, let's play the facts on this part. 77 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 5: This doesn't happen without this being a desperate move, pray, 78 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 5: without it being correct. I mean, like, you don't bring 79 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 5: a guy, even a smart guy, in on Tuesday and 80 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 5: start him on Sunday if you're not totally desperate for change. 81 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 5: And so we have to get that part clear. But 82 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 5: I have Zach that question yesterday and he had you 83 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 5: had to scale back and he said, yeah, I have 84 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 5: to be mindful of it, but you know, not a 85 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 5: whole lot, I don't think. And so I think that 86 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 5: speaks to you know, I'm sure you heard some of 87 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 5: the culotes from yesterday were literally you know, black O. 88 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 5: A couple hours after getting traded is Whye packed up 89 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 5: their place and hopped in a car with the Bengals 90 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 5: providing a driver, and drove down I seventy one from 91 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 5: Cleveland to Cincinnati. And on that time he spent time 92 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 5: on the phone, A lot of time on the phone 93 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 5: with was Zach going over some things and so try 94 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 5: I mean talking about hitting the ground running. I mean 95 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 5: he hit the ground running two hours after he was 96 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 5: traded here, and so I have no a fan. Yesterday 97 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 5: after practice and I know some others talked to some 98 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 5: other players and said he said it was pretty seamless 99 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 5: and went pretty smooth. So I didn't think that was 100 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 5: just you know, idle talk. I think they really did 101 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 5: go smooth. So I think that's the good part. You 102 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 5: did pick up a guy that if you're going to 103 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 5: pick up a guy on a Tuesday and expecting to 104 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 5: play on a Sunday, this is probably one of the 105 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 5: few guys that can do that. 106 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: In terms of the line they do things any different. 107 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 2: I mean, you've got a guy back there that is 108 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 2: not fleet of foot, uh and and you just cannot 109 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 2: allow the like free runners that Joe Flacco and it's 110 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 2: not going to end well for anybody. 111 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 3: Is there anything they can do different? 112 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 5: There is? 113 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 3: Is it too late in that process? 114 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 2: Like how do they handle knowing that they're going from 115 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 2: what they've had to a guy that is kind of 116 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 2: a statue back there? 117 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, you're probably gonna end up having a lot of 118 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 5: tight end staying into block. You're probably gonna have a 119 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 5: lot of the running back staying in the block. You're 120 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 5: probably gonna have sometimes where there's two dudes out on 121 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 5: routes the number one one Comber five and expect them 122 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 5: to get some separation and expect them to put the 123 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 5: ball where it's supposed to be and on time. So yeah, 124 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 5: I think they have to do some things do that 125 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 5: you can't. I mean with Joe Burrow, they did a 126 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 5: lot of single blocking, right and if the play broke down, 127 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 5: Joe was pretty good obviously at extending and sometimes extending 128 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 5: to his detriment, which is what happened when he when 129 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 5: he got hurt, but he was That was what he 130 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 5: did last year so well, was unscripted stuff and you 131 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 5: could try to single block and if you want then 132 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 5: it was even better. And if you didn't, Joe would create. 133 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 5: You can't expect that to happen here. The one thing 134 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 5: I will say about about Flaco probably even though Jake 135 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 5: Browning tried to talk into fruition, I mean, I think 136 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 5: he is a guy that sees a rush coming and 137 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 5: just is gonna throw away. I'm gonna live for the 138 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 5: next down, or I'll take a sack and just have 139 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 5: to eat it. And you know, I think you're gonna 140 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 5: have some of that. I mean, I wish I could 141 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 5: tell you there's a running game to hang your hat on. 142 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 5: If you don't have that, maybe something changes there. I 143 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 5: don't know. Maybe. I mean there was a play in 144 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 5: the in the last game was an RPO that if 145 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 5: Jake Browning hands it off to Chase brown it's a 146 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 5: seventy yard game, I mean, and he pulled it and 147 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 5: tried to throw a pass. And so do you do 148 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 5: some of that stuff where he makes the better read, 149 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 5: he makes the better decision, and it does improve the 150 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 5: running game? You know that? That's the part to me 151 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 5: that's got to get better. I don't have an answer 152 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 5: for it. They don't have an answer for it, obviously, 153 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 5: But you got to run the ball better than what 154 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 5: you're running. 155 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 3: I like that you said tried to throw a pass. 156 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I can't remember this. I know we tried. 157 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,679 Speaker 3: Probably wasn't. Probably wasn't. 158 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: How important is this stretch for Duke Tobin and these 159 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: young players on defense that we're still waiting to see, Like, 160 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 2: are they gonna ever take that next step to become 161 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: the best version of themselves? Now they're gonna have to 162 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 2: if they're gonna win. Some of these games need that 163 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 2: defense to be much much better. 164 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 5: Yeah. We talked Al Golden yesterday and he said, I know, 165 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 5: you know, people don't believe this, but I think we 166 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 5: are getting better. I think some individual guys are getting better. 167 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 5: I mean, honestly, they had really good moments in the 168 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 5: Detroit game where they're getting stops, and then of course 169 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 5: at twenty eight to seventeen when you kind of actually 170 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 5: got your way back in the game, was still ten 171 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 5: minutes to go, Retroy goes right down the field, and 172 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 5: it's just it's not consistent enough. I mean, they had 173 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 5: the three series in Denver where you know, Denver came 174 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 5: out of a half and they they forced three straight punts 175 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 5: and still gave them five hundred yards. I mean, it's 176 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 5: hard to do straight punts and gave them give up 177 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 5: five hundred yards and they did. I mean even in Minnesota, 178 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 5: I mean all those points and a lot of because 179 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 5: of turnovers. They want to stretch there in the first 180 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 5: half where it was seven to three and they were 181 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 5: getting stopped after stop after stop, and then all of 182 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 5: a sudden, the turnover machine hit them. So they've had moments, 183 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 5: it's just not consistent enough. And you know, I do 184 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 5: think that. You know, you're gonna play some offenses that 185 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 5: are that are still pretty good, but you got the 186 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 5: Jets mixed in there. You know, maybe you go up 187 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 5: to Lambeau and have your best defensive performance. You know, 188 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 5: I think everybody. I mean, there were really good moments 189 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 5: in that Lions game, because that Lion's offense, we know, 190 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 5: is hardly the best in the NFL. I mean, they 191 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 5: stopped the running game for the most part, except when 192 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 5: they couldn't when it was twenty eight to seventeen and 193 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 5: you needed it. I mean, a three and out in 194 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 5: the ball back either a few goal were touching on 195 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 5: your down to a one score game with probably five 196 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 5: minutes still to go, and they couldn't get the stop. 197 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: How important is the rest of this year for Duke 198 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 2: an Zach? Like, is there legitimate there should be? 199 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 3: There? Should I know there? Should we know there should be? 200 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 2: That doesn't look Mike Brown didn't fire Marvin for a 201 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 2: long time, and Marvin didn't win a playoff game, right, Like, 202 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 2: I have a hard time getting my head around the 203 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: fact that they're going to fire a guy that coached 204 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 2: a team in the Super Bowl with years still left 205 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 2: on his contract, I. 206 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 5: I and knowing full and knowing full well that he 207 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 5: played maybe all but a game and a half, Yeah, 208 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 5: without job, right, I mean, and that's the excuse. 209 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: And Duke is a family friend like I. I'll believe 210 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 2: they let go of Duke, move on from Duke like 211 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 2: when when I see it. But if this goes bad 212 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: and they get a top five pick in the draft, 213 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 2: there's got to be some world where that's a possibility. 214 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 5: I would agree. And and you know, listen, the NFL 215 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 5: is built on paying a couple of stars on your 216 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 5: team and then filling in with guys on rookie contracts. 217 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 5: That that's just that's what it's supposed to be built on. Well, 218 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 5: guys on rookie contracts aren't playing very well. Is that 219 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 5: coaching fault? Is that the coach it fault? Or is 220 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 5: that the the the personnel department and those scouting these 221 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 5: players and making bad selections, Is that their fault? I mean, 222 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 5: I'm sure they each point the finger of blame at 223 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 5: the other behind closed tours or maybe just even in private, 224 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 5: but at some point yet Duke has to take some 225 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 5: flack for this. There's there's no doubt he's had good 226 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 5: ones of drafting teams before. But he's not on a 227 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 5: heater right now, and they still do things a lot 228 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 5: of the old fashioned way, and they don't have as 229 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 5: many eyeballs as other teams. I know. He continued to say, 230 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 5: I don't need more rye balls. Yeah you probably, yeah 231 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 5: you do. Stop stop thinking you're the smartest guy in 232 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 5: the room, and a lot of moves being made show 233 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 5: that you're maybe not the smartest guy in the room. 234 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 5: And let me tell you this. I don't know if 235 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 5: you heard the answer the question yesterday, Zach said all 236 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 5: the right things about Joe Flaco, and I think he 237 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 5: meant some of them. But if you if you recall 238 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 5: he was asked when you know, when did you fight 239 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 5: out about the trade, and he said, when Duke told me. 240 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 5: And they said, now Duke asked my opinion of him. 241 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 5: And I will say this, Sach never just said what 242 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 5: he told Duke the opinion of him was did he 243 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 5: asked my opinion of him? It almost feels like this 244 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 5: was Duke making the move. And so at the end 245 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 5: of the year, this doesn't work out with Joe Flack 246 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 5: leader you go, I mean, I was poisted on me 247 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 5: by necessity, and I had to play him because the 248 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 5: other guy's stunk at that point. But yeah, I don't 249 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 5: know if he wanted this guy necessarily or not. 250 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 3: It's gonna be fascinating. 251 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 2: Looking strictly at this game against Green Bay, the Packers 252 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 2: look like a wagon early. What has gone kind of 253 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: sideways for them that they don't look like that team currently? 254 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 5: I know. Weird. I mean they lose the Browns and 255 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 5: the defensive struggle thirteen to ten and then have the 256 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 5: forty to forty tie with the Cowboys. That just seems 257 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 5: weird to me. It's like you're one or the other, 258 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 5: Which one are you? 259 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 3: Yeah? 260 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 5: I do think they're really good. I mean, you know, 261 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 5: they were my NFC pick to go to the super Bowl, 262 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 5: not that means anything because my AFC pick was Baltimore and 263 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 5: that's not working out so well at the moment. So 264 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 5: I do think they're good. I mean, got a good quarterback, 265 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 5: competent receivers, good defense, and you know, another worldly player 266 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 5: in Mike the Park. Since it is a really good team, 267 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 5: I don't think they go up there and win. And 268 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 5: that's the other thing too, And you know, back to 269 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 5: your defensive question, I meant to say this. You know, 270 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 5: even if Joe Burrow was healthy, I mean, the Bengals 271 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 5: could have come out of the Green Bay game two 272 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 5: and four. I mean, they really could have. 273 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 3: You know, so as a two were barely two. 274 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 5: Correct, I mean, and you know, go back to the 275 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 5: opener in Cleveland, Joe Burrow was the quarterback and they 276 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 5: only had one hundred and twty one yards. So like 277 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 5: they were sitting on fire there either. Because that's what 278 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 5: there are deeper issues than just quarterback. Quarterback is an issue, 279 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 5: and obviously, in my opinion, I listen, I'm a big 280 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 5: Jake Browning fan. I thought, what I'm stunned at just 281 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 5: how poor that stretch of games have gone. But no 282 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 5: doubt they had to do something at the position, and 283 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 5: you know, obviously they did something very desperate. 284 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 2: Let's let's move to the Bearcats for a minute, Skinny. 285 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 2: They take down Kansas, they take down Iowa State. They're 286 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: in a an interesting position this week because it's you know, 287 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 2: for teams that are maybe not used to experiencing a 288 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 2: lot of success, this is a dangerous one. On Saturday, 289 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 2: UCF hasn't played great, but they are a team with 290 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 2: talent and that's the nightmare, right, You're playing a rival 291 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: that's talented and hasn't met expectations and you're kind of 292 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: riding high off of these two wins. This is the 293 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 2: classic letdown period. I think we learn a lot about 294 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 2: Scott Sanderfield's team on Saturday. 295 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know what, I think the way they 296 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 5: won the last two games means something. I never have 297 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 5: to pull out one, the one at Kansas and in 298 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 5: this last week when it looked like it was slipping away, 299 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 5: slipping away, you know, they were sailing out against the 300 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 5: Rowe Iolis. They was, and you couldn't run the ball 301 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 5: much in the second and then you hit the one 302 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 5: big play over the top to kind of put it away. 303 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 5: I think that has carryover effect to me, like you 304 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 5: found ways to win. You didn't just go out and dominate. 305 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 5: You had to find ways to win. So I think 306 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 5: that's a positive to your point. Yeah, I mean, you know, 307 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 5: the the wins for you see f for two by games, 308 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 5: and I can call it a third because they beat 309 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 5: North Carolina and they're they're obviously terrible against anything that 310 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 5: it's halfway decent. Then you know they lose at Kansas 311 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 5: State and home to Kansas. You know, Kansas State is 312 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 5: not having a great year. I think they are a 313 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 5: pretty good team, but they're just not having a very 314 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 5: good year. And Kansas is a is a quality team too. 315 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 5: I mean, I don't want to discount that. You see 316 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 5: win has a great win, I mean on the road, 317 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 5: and you know their offensive fireworks. So yeah, I think 318 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 5: that has a carry over effect. But to your point, 319 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 5: I mean, you know, letdowns happen. We don't know why 320 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 5: they happen, but they do happen in situations, right, But 321 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 5: I think for this team, man, I think it's more 322 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 5: of the confidences there now. Like again, the rest of 323 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 5: the game was wonky. Maybe part of that was Nebraska, 324 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 5: right or it look like goshall never be able to 325 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 5: throw the ball and all they're gonna have to do 326 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 5: is as you're gonna have to pull it down and run. 327 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 5: And now suddenly you're cranking up the run game. And 328 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 5: so now teams go, well, have to sell stop the run. Fine, 329 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 5: we're gonna hit you over the top. Well we're gonna 330 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 5: hit over the top. Let's go lighter in the box 331 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 5: and play too high safety. We're gonna run the ball 332 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 5: at I mean, they're a really good spot offensively. They 333 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 5: have some flaws on defense, dad, in my opinion, but 334 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 5: right now they are clicking on offense. 335 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 2: That they the thing about the offense is what you're 336 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 2: always looking for, right You got a good offensive line 337 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 2: that can run and pass block, you got a good quarterback, 338 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: and you got a bunch of viable weapons, and that 339 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: that you're hard to deal with that way. 340 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 5: In the first game. Yeah, they didn't look that way 341 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 5: in the opener, but they sure do. Now you know 342 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 5: what to do because it sounds I don't I'm probably 343 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 5: wrong in saying this because I did PA for the 344 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 5: for the Northwestern. 345 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 3: State game, and you know it was a joke, right. 346 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 5: I mean, and I'm thinking, did this get your confidence up? 347 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 5: They just give you false hope. Well, maybe it did 348 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 5: give them confidence, yeah, because they were hitting bombs left 349 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 5: and right. When you go fifteen for fifteen and you 350 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 5: know in the time that he played in that game 351 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 5: and five touchdowns and you're thinking, well it was against 352 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 5: literally playing nobody. Was that he was a big confidence 353 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 5: boost they needed? 354 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 3: Was that the worst college football team you've ever seen. 355 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 5: Ever, ever, ever, ever close ever for a guy called 356 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 5: the same two guys making tackles for that team. Nobody 357 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 5: else wanted to tackle two dudes. I think they wanted 358 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 5: to tackle. 359 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 3: Two dudes that wanted to to be there. 360 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 2: Everybody else was like, get us on the bus and 361 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 2: get us back to Louisiana, please, please, sir, please. 362 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 5: I'm watching I was watching them in warm ups and 363 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 5: they had a very regimented, like very organized warm up session, 364 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 5: and they had a whistle that guy kept blowing during 365 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 5: the warm up and I'm like, okay, guys trying to 366 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 5: build himself a program and they're not very good. They 367 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 5: did get it, you know. They finally they didn't win 368 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 5: a game last year. They got to win earlier this year. 369 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 5: I'm like, they're gonna get their teeth kicked in here. 370 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 5: But okay, this looks like this team's going to try 371 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 5: to try to do something. It is still gonna be ugly, 372 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 5: I mean, can't. It's seventy to nothing. Was not playing 373 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 5: ten minutes of game clop because they cut it short. 374 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 2: It was seventeen enough. It could have easily been. They 375 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 2: could have easily hit one hundred. Easily, they could. 376 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 5: Hit a hundred, no no doubt. 377 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: He's out mind. 378 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 2: What does it say to you the buy in even 379 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 2: though things weren't successful in the first two years, Scott 380 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 2: Siderfield got dudes to stay. I mean, Jake Golda is 381 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 2: going to be an early draft pick. Brendon Soersby could 382 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: play with the way this quarterback year is going, could 383 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 2: very much play his way into an early draft pick. 384 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 2: Joe Royer is going to be drafted in a good spot. 385 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 2: Dante like, these aren't guys that are hoping to sneak 386 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 2: into the sixth and seventh round. What does it say 387 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 2: that things didn't go great these first two years, but 388 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 2: the culture was there and the buy in was there 389 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 2: because they. 390 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 3: Got all these guys to come back. 391 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 2: And I can tell you this for a one hundred 392 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 2: percent fact, they had a chance to go elsewhere and 393 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 2: make a lot more money than what they got here. 394 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean, I guess credit to him, and I'll 395 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 5: say this because I'm sure he understood he was under 396 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 5: the gun going in issue. Yeah, and sometimes you want 397 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 5: to change everything, and maybe he did. Maybe you're way 398 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 5: closer to it than I have, and maybe he did well. 399 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 5: Maybe he just said I'm going to continue to trust 400 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,719 Speaker 5: my process because I believe in it. And whatever that 401 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 5: process is, it's it's suddenly clicking. 402 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 3: I don't think a whole lot changed. I really don't, so. 403 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 5: Again, trust your process. 404 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 3: Sometimes I think the players got better. 405 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 2: That usually is the main culprit, Right, the players got better, 406 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 2: things get a little easier. 407 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 5: There's no question about that part of me. No offense. 408 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 5: If I got nick thing out of retire and gave 409 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 5: it Northwestern States players, I do think they would at 410 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 5: least tackle because he demanded. 411 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 3: I think they'd be able better. 412 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 2: I don't think they would have looked like the worst 413 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 2: college football team I've ever seen. I don't think that 414 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 2: team could have won the g CL South. 415 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 5: No, I'll give you the GCL South All Stars. Let's 416 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 5: make it an all star team. 417 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 3: I'll take you, okay, Like you really think they could 418 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 3: beat Mohler quarterback. 419 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 5: They could beat Moler. Give me the team of all 420 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 5: Stars and the GCL South. They take you up on it. 421 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 2: Moler has more high level D one athletes than Northwestern State. 422 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 5: You ever, don't forget. 423 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 3: I know maybe Elder could beat him too. I don't know. 424 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 5: I do. 425 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 2: Maybe you combine Moler and Elder and I'm taking that 426 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 2: team power Shohler. 427 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 5: Uh, there you go. 428 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 3: Real quick? 429 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 2: Anything Reds are we really looking based on some of 430 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 2: the things I've seen said that we're gonna run this 431 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 2: thing back next year. 432 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 3: They're gonna run it back. 433 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,719 Speaker 5: Aren't they? But but but I still think they're going 434 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 5: to have enough money to go find a bat somehow someway. 435 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 5: And don't forget Nick Martinez, a twenty one er comes 436 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 5: off the books. 437 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, just a bat like the bat or do we 438 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: get a player with it?

I can't I can't imagine they don't 444 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 5: add a bat. I just can't imagine. You think that again, 445 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 5: you need some of the guys to take a step 446 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 5: forward that that's kind of baked into Blake, Like, I 447 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,719 Speaker 5: need more from Ellie, even though Ellie does a lot, 448 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 5: he let the team in almost every offensive category. Know 449 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 5: in a man time, you know, I need a more 450 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 5: consistent to Weld Marte. I need those kinds of things. 451 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 5: I need. Brian has to get at least more than 452 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 5: two hits a month. But I can't thank on that 453 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 5: being the only thing that that part of that with 454 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 5: another guy adds another handful of wins. 455 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 3: Yep, Ellie Eli Cruz, centerfielder. 456 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 2: I have been the biggest Ellie's a shortstop propos it 457 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 2: on the planet, but it's not getting better, like the errors, 458 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 2: the mistakes. 459 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, dude, I think he'd be so good out there. 460 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 5: I mean where he ranges sometimes to catch pop up. 461 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 5: Sometimes it's even dangerous because he's about to clyde with 462 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 5: an Outfielders come in two steps from where he originally 463 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 5: camp dance. How far it sometimes he goes out. I 464 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 5: think he'd be so so good out there. 465 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: The pitching's good enough to win, even though we didn't 466 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 2: really see it in the playoffs. 467 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 3: But the pitching is going to ask for a lot. 468 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 5: And listen, you don't have to go out and get 469 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 5: a lot of bullpen arms. In my opinion, you got 470 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 5: a lot of good arms in the system. You know, 471 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 5: I'm not even sure Chase burn starts. I mean, I'm 472 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,719 Speaker 5: not sure his will isn't better than the bullpen. If 473 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 5: that's the case, then that means your rotation is pretty 474 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 5: damn good and you just added another good arm to 475 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 5: the bullpen. Doesn't that hard? Yeah, Red Louder's back in 476 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 5: the maybe Williamson's back in the mix. You know you 477 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 5: got to walk back. 478 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're not far. They just just go get a bat. 479 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 2: Go get a bat, and a player that swings it, 480 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 2: a player that hands is their hands are attached to it. 481 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 2: I'd love for it to have been sure where there's 482 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 2: noe like people got to let that go. That guy 483 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 2: played himself out of the Reds this year. 484 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, give me Kyle Tucker.
