But yes, 52 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: I can understand why people are unhappy with what they 53 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 2: saw from the Crowned last night. I also think people 54 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,359 Speaker 2: are incredibly sold and can wear it a little bit 55 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 2: more than they than they normally do. I think the 56 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 2: outrage is partially due to the fact that there's a 57 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 2: slow media day going that they freaks out all the time. 58 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 2: And I cannot lose mc cronin. He is a content machine, 59 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 2: and I have a four hour a day radio show, 60 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 2: so I cannot afford. I don't care what he does. 61 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't care if he punched a kid 62 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 2: like Norman Dale. And I need McK cronin in this 63 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: in this town, coaching basketball. And I don't think punking 64 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: a reporter in East Lansing and kicking your own player 65 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 2: out of the game, though perhaps unsavory sub and it 66 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: seems like many today there's a lot of outrage out there. 67 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 2: I don't think those things are fireable as far as 68 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: for cause kind of thing. And this is a guy 69 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: with twenty million, twenty two million dollars in his buyout. 70 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: I mean, you see, LA could barely afford Sean Foster's 71 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 2: seven billion dollar buyout. They just gave Prone in a 72 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: five year extension. He's not I don't think going anywhere. 73 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: So I'm just like me. I think Coach is gonna 74 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: have to weather in this storm that he throw the 75 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: cause m self and and we'll live to fight another 76 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: day with our content machine.

I mean, God, 168 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 4: does he whined his Oh. 169 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: We saw the Statue of Liberty six times, we saw 170 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 3: the Grand Canyon twice in four days, and now he's 171 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: chastising reporters for raising their voice at him after he 172 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 3: goes out of his way to tell them how stupid 173 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 3: their questions were. 174 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: I'm sure you saw the statistic saftee the Pac twelve teams. 175 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 2: You know, our West Coast heroes, USC, UCLA, Washington, and 176 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 2: Oregon are like two and twenty games outside the West Coast, 177 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 2: and I think it's a different basketball culture in the 178 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 2: Big Ten. Football culture is one thing, right. I mean, 179 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: Oregon is a big, tough football team, and we've seen 180 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 2: Washington play very competitively very recently. USC is supposed to 181 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: be good, and I think the coach at UCLA is excellent. 182 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: I think they hit a home run with the guy 183 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 2: that they hired in Bob Chefney. But I mean basketball 184 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 2: is a different story. I mean, those arenas are not. 185 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 2: I mean, you know what what basketball has been like 186 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 2: on the West coast for years. Here's Arizona and then 187 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 2: Ucla with their history, and then kind of everybody else 188 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 2: up and down and on and off and consistently having 189 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 2: to go east and play in places like Purdue and 190 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 2: freaking Assembly Hall, and and I think it's it's it's 191 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 2: blowing up our our our spot out here in the West. 192 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 2: It's a mad look for all of them. 193 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it really is. Well we'll see. 194 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 5: Uh. 195 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 4: You know you mentioned the Seahawks and you know he said, 196 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 4: you know Kenny Walker who was drafted by the Seahawks 197 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 4: in the second round. As you know, out of Michigan State. 198 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: That's where night. 199 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 4: That's right, That's right, man, It all ties together there. 200 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: But you know we're we're I've been at eat planting 201 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: twice and how do. 202 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 4: You enjoy the trip that? What's he doing? By the way, 203 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 4: what's our buddy Jonathan Smith up to now? Did he 204 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 4: find left his buyout? 205 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 2: Shy? 206 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 4: He didn't find a job yet. 207 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 2: No, if you find a job, then you can't collect 208 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 2: your buyout, Like, come on, man, you're not stupid. 209 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 4: I think most coaches, though, would like to go back 210 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 4: to work, don't. 211 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: You, No, well, most of them. What they do is 212 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 2: they consult so it's a different title. So they come 213 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: in as a consultant while they're being bought out, and 214 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 2: then when the buyout's over, like Starkeisian with USC or whoever, 215 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: then may become a full time coach. Yeah. 216 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 4: But it's never been about not getting paid. It's about 217 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 4: getting paid to not work. Like whatever Jonathan Smith is 218 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 4: owed from Michigan State. I believe the standard contract language 219 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 4: says that if you take another job, that money is 220 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 4: offset and is now the responsibility of the new school 221 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 4: that is paying you your contract. I don't get the 222 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 4: impression that most coaches after they're let go, especially a 223 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 4: guy that's as young as John is, would like to 224 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 4: just sit around and just cash a paycheck and do nothing. 225 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: I would like to stick it to Michigan State and 226 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 2: make sure they pay repenting, as opposed to somebody else 227 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: that pay what they've done. Hey, then I go, except 228 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 2: somebody else's money. Yeah, you want to stick it to 229 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: that guy that fired you and make sure they pay 230 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 2: what they owe and what the contract says. So we 231 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 2: see this very different. 232 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, I you and I see it 233 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 4: the exact same way. I would sit on my fat 234 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 4: ass and do nothing for three or four years if 235 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 4: I could, If I were Jonathan Smith. I'm just saying 236 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 4: that you and me, as talk radio hacks, I think 237 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 4: are wired a little bit differently than guys that are 238 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 4: used to working one hundred hours a week and have 239 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 4: that competitive fire birding in their belly, which you and 240 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 4: I clearly do not. 241 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 2: Well, that file may have been doused by such failure 242 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:44,239 Speaker 2: in Atlantic. 243 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 4: Well, now we're talking about the seahawksers for sale. I 244 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 4: don't know if you caught that or not. You know, 245 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 4: it's it's not a surprise. 246 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 2: Good that a good thing. 247 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 4: I mean it could be it could be a horrible thing. 248 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 4: I mean the franchisees completely turned itself around after Paul 249 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 4: Allen bought him in nineteen ninety seven. I mean they've 250 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 4: got seventeen playoff appearances in thirty years and eleven division 251 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 4: titles and four Super Bowls, two championships. They didn't do 252 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 4: squat before Paul Allen bought the team. And you never know, 253 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 4: there's a new guy coming on, New Gal coming on. 254 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 4: Whoever runs the conglomerate. If there is one that buys 255 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 4: the Seahawks, they could screw it all up. And it's 256 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 4: like Willy walkom Man. Willy Wonka didn't he wanted to 257 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 4: give the chocolate factory to a kid so he could 258 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 4: tell them all his chocolate making secrets, not some adult 259 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 4: that's gonna want to do it his way. So yeah, 260 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 4: I'm concerned about it for sure. 261 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 2: You think that somebody's here to try to make chocolate 262 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 2: in a different way. 263 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,479 Speaker 4: I think there's a chance that whoever buys the Seahawks 264 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 4: doesn't run it the way Paul Allen and Jody Allen 265 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 4: ran it, And they want to come in here and 266 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 4: they want to do stupid things like make their mark 267 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 4: and hire their own people. And I mean, Petros, you 268 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 4: got people in this league like Jerry Jones, by the way, 269 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 4: who hires his kids to run the franchise. How do 270 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 4: I know what a new owner is going to do? 271 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: Well? I suppose you're right. I mean, I think these 272 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: are all obvious things that come along with selling a franchise. 273 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 2: I mean, for better or for worse, we've had doctor 274 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: Jerry Biz and his family own the Lakers forever, and 275 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 2: now that's over, and the whole thing is systematically being 276 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 2: dismantled and bumped and bumped out. There's a new announcement 277 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 2: about somebody stepping down or being bought out or bad 278 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 2: blood between the buses, which is not a surprise. And 279 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 2: the Lakers are going to be run different. I think 280 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 2: most people kind of embrace that. Of course, they're not 281 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 2: coming off a world championship like your Seahawks, so I 282 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 2: could understand your trepidation, But I mean, you already won 283 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. What do you expect? 284 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 4: Well, I want to win two of them. I want 285 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 4: to win back to back. 286 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 2: The Dodgers, Yeah, going for a three piece? 287 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, like the Dodgers. 288 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 2: Well, what will you do then? Like what they gonna 289 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: do for you? 290 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 4: Like, honestly, the hell are you talking about? What's it 291 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 4: gonna do? What is anything? What does any of this 292 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 4: really do? 293 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: What does it help to attack? 294 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not attacking Mickwell, I am attacking mc cronin. 295 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 4: I just I'm glad to hear you admit that you 296 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 4: only want the guy around because he gives you content 297 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 4: for your radio program, which you clearly and I'm in 298 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 4: the same boat, cannot on your own. I got you. Well, 299 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 4: don't be friends with the people you cover. That's rule 300 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 4: number one. Don't you know that? 301 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: What do I cover? No one tastes you seriously? 302 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 4: Hey, did you uh? Did you hear about Jimmy Doherty 303 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 4: parting ways with Jed Fish last night? I mean it's 304 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 4: the middle of freaking February. The season has been over 305 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 4: for two months, and all of a sudden, the blue 306 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 4: bang the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, and Jimmy Doherty 307 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 4: is is gone. You find that kind of odd that happened? 308 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 2: Now? No, I think Jed has a transient nature, so 309 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 2: there's no surprise with somebody on his staff exhibits the 310 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 2: same behavior. If Jed still calls the plays with his 311 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 2: fish face. 312 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 4: Right, Yes, with his own face he calls the plays, 313 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 4: not with somebody else's. 314 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: He uses his face to still call the offensive plays. 315 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 4: Yes he does, all right. 316 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 2: Well, Doherty seems to be a little bit of an 317 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: afterthought of that, not that he might not. I mean, 318 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: we had a quarterback coach who was really good, and 319 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: our offensive coordinator when I was at USC was jealous 320 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 2: of the cornerback coach. Right, he was his old Kenny O'Brien. 321 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 2: He's an old famous name, and the offensive coordinator was 322 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 2: Hugh Jackson, of course, of oh and sixteen fame at 323 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: the Cleveland Brown and Hugh Jackson didn't like the fact 324 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 2: that they had such a great repertoire with each other, 325 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: the quarnerbacks, Carson Palmer and Ken O'Brien, so they fired 326 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,959 Speaker 2: Ken O'Brien even though he wasn't the play caller, and 327 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 2: Hugh Jackson came back the next year as the cornerback coach, 328 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 2: and I think it was the worst thing ever for 329 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 2: Carson's It was a huge setback and Carson's college career. 330 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,239 Speaker 2: Remember he won the Heisman in his fifth year. They 331 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 2: were six and six the year before that. So I mean, 332 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: I've seen it. I'm just using the example to where 333 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 2: thinking about it. I've seen it where they get rid 334 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 2: of a quarnerback coach and he's not the play caller, 335 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 2: and it's still effects that that player. But I don't 336 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 2: know Jimmy Doherty, and I would imagine anybody hanging around 337 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: with an offensive coordinator title, for Jed Fish has got 338 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 2: one foot on a train and a readier lead down 339 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 2: so they can call their own play. 340 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 4: Well, he's not giving up play calling anytime soon. I 341 00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 4: can tell you that. I mean I asked him, Jed 342 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 4: now year ago if you would ever consider just giving 343 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 4: it up, and he said no, that's kind of his thing. 344 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 4: And as you've pointed out, you know, there's not many 345 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 4: offensive play calling head coaches that win national championships these 346 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 4: days anymore in college football. So maybe Jed's making a mistake. 347 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 2: Now, you've got to be very very special and be 348 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 2: able to compartmentalize your decision making. And if your motif 349 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,719 Speaker 2: is as an offensive genius, it's really these guys are 350 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 2: all human beings, and they all at some point almost 351 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 2: inevitably outsmart themselves in the end. And I think that's 352 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 2: probably Jed Fish's fate too, even if they were that 353 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 2: not that they are competing for championships, but if they were, 354 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 2: that would end up being a problem like it is 355 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 2: for Sarkisian and guys like that when it really comes 356 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: down to it. 357 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, did you did you see the tweet? 358 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 2: And you know, also when you use your face to 359 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 2: call the play right, right, that's a horse of a different. 360 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 4: It'd be it'd be interesting if he was wearing like 361 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 4: a Steve Sarkisian or a Kaelin de boor mask on 362 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 4: the sideline and calling plays husky stud Oh my, exactly, 363 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 4: with the with the with the flame thrower, you know, 364 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 4: a gas gas station. God, remember that scene that was 365 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 4: badass man when he takes the takes the gas What 366 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 4: the hell do you call that thing?

You take the pump and you light it 369 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 4: up fire and acts like it's a flamethrower. God, that 370 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 4: was freaking cool.

I mean, we've 381 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 2: always known that the stories of the Olympic Village are 382 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 2: extremely notorious for many years. The fact that they literally 383 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 2: blew through like three thousand condoms that were supposed to 384 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 2: last two weeks and it took three days. It is 385 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 2: pretty or ten thousand or whatever it was.

They've got 441 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 4: a law firm, they have an investment bank. I'm not 442 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,239 Speaker 4: going to bore you with who they are that will 443 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 4: lead the process, and the kind of the feel I guess, 444 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 4: guys is that we could have a new owner by 445 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 4: week one of the upcoming NFL season. And you know, 446 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 4: a lot of people were critical of Brady Henderson and 447 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 4: Seth whipper Snapper for the timing of the story that 448 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 4: came out. I just want to dive into that for 449 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 4: a second because I saw our buddy Brian Nemhauser, Hawk 450 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 4: blogger was kind of defending those guys. I never understood 451 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 4: the criticism from the first place. So what what was 452 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 4: I missing about. 453 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 8: Criticism was Hey, is this a way that Robert Kraft 454 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 8: is trying to distract from the super Bowl by tipping 455 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 8: off Seth whipper Snapper into writing this piece about the 456 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 8: Seahawks sale right before the Super Bowl? 457 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 2: Yeah? 458 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 4: I totally get that. But we're not blaming the writers, right, Like, 459 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 4: if the writers find something out, they're going to report it, right, 460 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 4: not their job to worry about when the story comes 461 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 4: out or who gets distracted. 462 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 8: But there was a there was a thought, and I'm 463 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 8: not saying this this happened, but I entertained the thought 464 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 8: that Hey, when I've got this story right, when better 465 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 8: to release it for click's sake than the week before 466 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 8: the Super Bowl when everybody's talking about the Seahawks already. 467 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 4: Well, I think you release it when you release it, 468 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 4: because if you don't release it, somebody else may. 469 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 8: Don't you think reporters hold on to stories for the right. 470 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 4: Moment, No, unless they're worried about somebody beating them, or 471 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 4: not worried about beating them. I mean, the minute Brady 472 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 4: Henderson and Seth Wickersham got the news that they felt 473 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 4: comfortable enough to run with it, that they were going 474 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 4: to be sold, they should report it. The reporters enough 475 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 4: fans like you and me. I mean, you know, I 476 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 4: may have sat on them for a couple of days, 477 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 4: and hey, maybe you might want to hold off on 478 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 4: this until the game's over because we're Seahawk fans. But 479 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 4: Brady's not like that. He's an actual professional. No, so 480 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 4: was Whipper Snapper, right, the two of them. So I 481 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 4: don't blame those guys at all. I mean, if you 482 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 4: want to tell me that you thought that Rob Kraft 483 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 4: was behind it, I can totally see that. Absolutely can 484 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 4: see that one hundred percent. I mean that didn't work 485 00:25:56,119 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 4: obviously on Super Sunday. Right, maybe if they had waited 486 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 4: for the story to come out Monday, the Hawks may 487 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 4: have won by seventy and not sixteen points on Super Soiday. 488 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 4: I don't blame the reporters at all. Right, I think 489 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 4: if you're in this business and you get a scoop, 490 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 4: it's your job to report it. Doesn't matter when it's 491 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 4: coming out. I mean, if you feel like you know 492 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 4: you're gonna sit on it because you're waiting for more 493 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 4: confirmation or there's more context to it that I could see. 494 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 4: But if you've got a story that you believe in, 495 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 4: then hell report it. 496 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 8: If I'm Bob Kraft and I think that my guy 497 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 8: whipper Snapper has got a story that he's about ready 498 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 8: to report, but maybe he doesn't have all the loose 499 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 8: ends tied up right, I'm going to give him a 500 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 8: call and make sure all of his loose ends are 501 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 8: tied right now so he can air the story right 502 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 8: before sound the Seahawks play me. 503 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, it sounds like they had everything done. I mean 504 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 4: they were correct. I mean they did say it was 505 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 4: the Monday after the game, but whether it's the Monday 506 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 4: or a week and a half after the game, the 507 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 4: premise of their story was team's going up for sale. 508 00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 509 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 7: I think at the end of the day, whether it 510 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 7: was a distraction or not, and I do think there 511 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 7: is some credibility to think that there is. That's possible. Well, 512 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 7: that happened, It's possible. I think it's very clear. Softy, 513 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:14,360 Speaker 7: what Mike McDonald, if you can drop oh yeah, yeah, 514 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 7: what I might think just keep talking about to say, 515 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 7: in response to potentially that story leaking, we did not 516 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 7: care exactly. 517 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 4: The fact that it took three people to get that clip. 518 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 4: Here's what I would say to people that criticize whipper 519 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 4: Snapper and Brady, I don't, look, Jackson, You're one thousand 520 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 4: percent correct that it could have had a distraction. I 521 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 4: don't think it did. 522 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 7: In the end. 523 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 4: I think it's totally different for players than it is 524 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 4: for like front office people. Like the people that should 525 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 4: be worried about their futures with the team are not 526 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 4: the players, because the new owner will inherit those contracts 527 00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 4: and have to honor every single one of them, right, 528 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 4: But like the team president, vice president, salespeople, who knows 529 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 4: what the new person's gonna want to do when they 530 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 4: take over. 531 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 7: Here's I think that the best argument to why I 532 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 7: don't think that Robert Kraft said put this out today, 533 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 7: because remember that was the week before. The week before 534 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 7: that was that was like the previous what was it 535 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 7: Thursday or Friday or something like that. That was before 536 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 7: they even got down there. Yeah, correct, right. The timing 537 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 7: to do it, I mean, I think it wasn't on 538 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 7: a Friday. 539 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:29,479 Speaker 4: That got buried on a Friday. 540 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 7: The timing to do it is Monday afternoon, late morning, 541 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 7: right before opening night, where everybody is on the opening 542 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 7: night festivities everybody's receiving questions, and the only thing people 543 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 7: are talking about is, oh my gosh, one of these 544 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 7: teams is about to get sold. That would have been 545 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 7: potentially distracting. But the friday before. 546 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I did nothing well as far as distraction, you means, yeah, right, yeah, agree, 547 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:55,719 Speaker 4: I'm just I'm just worried. 548 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 8: But about what what Mike said. 549 00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 4: And he's exactly right. 550 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 9: This Mike, he did not care that, not that Mic, 551 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 9: the the butthole Mike. Yeah, that that Florio the day, 552 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 9: the Florio that talked to us at three ten today 553 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 9: he said, all that matters, All that matters is the 554 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 9: numbers on the check. 555 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 8: And that's what's worrisome. Because let's say you've got two 556 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 8: potential suitors, and Jody Allen is talking to these two 557 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 8: potential suitors and she feels really really good about one 558 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 8: of them really carrying on the legacy of Paul Allen, 559 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 8: this being a really healthy franchise. And that person or 560 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 8: that group is willing to pay nine billion dollars for 561 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 8: the Seahawks, right, And then there's another group willing to 562 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 8: pay ten point three billion dollars for the Seahawks, and 563 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 8: they look like a complete train wreck. Well, guess what 564 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 8: she's gonna sell for ten point three billion dollars And 565 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 8: there's really no checks and balances to see if the 566 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 8: new owner is any good or not. 567 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 4: See, I don't know anything. And by the way you write, 568 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 4: it was the friday before we went we went down. 569 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 4: There was a Friday after the Rams game when the 570 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 4: story came out, and it broke at two o'clock Pacific time, 571 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 4: five o'clock on the East Coast is when the story 572 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 4: came out. I'm looking at the deal right here. I 573 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 4: don't know what's in the contract with the estate, Like 574 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 4: do they have to actually vet these people? Do they 575 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 4: just take the most amount of money because every penny 576 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 4: that they get is going right to charity? Right, Like 577 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 4: that's the story. Everything's getting liquidated, right, everything that guy owned, 578 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 4: his spaceships, his apartment homes, his condos, his yachts, his teeth, Like, 579 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 4: everything's gone. There's gonna be nothing left. It's gonna be 580 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 4: like when the Grinch stole Christmas and all I saw 581 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 4: was like a light bulb on the floor and a hangar. 582 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 4: Everything's gone, and lawyers are handling this right, everything is going. 583 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 4: So the estate may say it's just the highest bidder, 584 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 4: or it may say you have to actually investigate, you 585 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 4: have to have this guy make prom or this gal 586 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 4: and make promises and what they're gonna do with a franchise. 587 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 4: And again, I'll just say this that John Nordstrom and 588 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 4: the Northstrom family I firmly believe. And I didn't know 589 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 4: John as an owner. I know way more after they 590 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 4: sold the football team. I went to high school with 591 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 4: Jamie Nordstrom, and so we got to go to a 592 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 4: couple of games grown up as a kid. Blah blah blah. 593 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 4: But John was heartbroken what Ken Baring did to that 594 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 4: football team. He never saw that coming ever, and he 595 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 4: never ever would have sold that team to Ken Barring 596 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 4: if he knew what was coming. I don't believe that 597 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 4: Howard Schultz gave a crap what Clay Bennett was gonna do. 598 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 4: That's correct. With the basketball team, I do believe that 599 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 4: John Nordstrom did care. I think he felt like he 600 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 4: made a mistake and I feel like it bothers him 601 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 4: even today and the family that ended up happening, and 602 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 4: thank God for Paul Allen coming in and saving the day, right, 603 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 4: But I don't know what the process is like here, 604 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 4: I have no I mean, maybe Greg does, maybe somebody 605 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 4: who's investigated this a little more than we have would 606 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 4: know about that process, because you're exactly right, Dick, and 607 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 4: know what's to say, they won't sell this thing to 608 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 4: somebody who's gonna think they know what they're doing. But 609 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 4: I have no damn clue what they're doing. 610 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 7: So I remember that night, that Friday night, I was 611 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 7: on the Seahawks pre pre Super Bowl show with Greg 612 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 7: and we were talking about it, and he was talking 613 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 7: about how lawyers handle all these things, and it's all 614 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 7: just based in the legalese, right, and that makes me 615 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 7: very concerned. If Paul didn't specifically write in you must 616 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 7: have all these qualifications meant if it was just simply 617 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 7: sell all my assets one by one, et cetera, et cetera, 618 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 7: send them all to charity, If there wasn't specific language 619 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 7: on these teams, then I'm massively scared. 620 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, again, it's just a matter of we know 621 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 4: that we got something really good going right now. Right 622 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 4: all of us understand that what the Allens have meant 623 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,479 Speaker 4: to the city, what they've meant to that franchise, and 624 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 4: repeating that with a new ownership group feels like it's 625 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 4: going to be really, really hard to do. 626 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 2: Right. 627 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,959 Speaker 4: This is not like Paul Allen had an air and 628 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 4: he's leaving it to them, right, or Jody just takes over. 629 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 4: Is there a chance that Jody buys the football team. 630 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 4: I don't think that's probably gonna happen. I think she's 631 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 4: probably done when this whole thing comes, you know, to fruition. 632 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 4: Maybe she's a part of it. Maybe. I mean, I 633 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 4: said today on Twitter or X, by the way, I'd 634 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 4: love to see Todd lai WICKI be a part of 635 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 4: this somehow, some way. I mean, I just think he's 636 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 4: done phenomenal things in this town. He's done great things 637 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 4: for the Seahawks. He hired Pete Carroll for God's sakes. 638 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 4: He was the one that wanted to whack Jim More 639 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 4: and go get Pete Carroll, right. I mean Burt Coled, Honestly, 640 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 4: Burke Cole is a guy that's taken a lot of 641 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 4: heat from a lot of people over the years in 642 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 4: this town. Maybe he finds a way to be a 643 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 4: part of this as some kind of a consultant or 644 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 4: advisor or minority owner with the team. I got no idea, 645 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 4: but can we continue to repeat the success when the 646 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 4: success has meant the greatest thirty year run of any 647 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 4: sports franchised ownership group in this town, and we're asking 648 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 4: to repeat it with somebody totally brand new. That's the problem. 649 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 4: So again, who knows, man, let's do this. We're gonna 650 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 4: break more on this coming up. We'll talk about this 651 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 4: more than five o'clock hour.
