Speaker 1 (00:01):
Zach Seker's back there, producing Rockies go down ten to two.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
The Boston Red Sox.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Rockies moved to twenty one and seventy one on the season,
Boston to forty eight forty five winning pitcher Brian Bellow,
who went the whole way, and losing pitcher Kyle Freeland,
who moves to one to ten on the season. Freeland
five point two innings pitched four hits, allowed three runs,
three earned, two walks, six strikeouts.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
The home runs allowed.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Onan mayhe up pitched a third of inning, allowed two hits,
a run it was earned. Jake Byrd came in for
a third of inning, gave a four hits, five runs, five.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Earned, and a walk. One of those was a home run.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Zach Agnells came on to finish things on one point
two innings, pitch one hit, one run, one earned, two strikeouts,
and allowed a home run as well. Rocky scoring all
done in the nineteen inning was a shoutout for the
bo Sox up until Van Haunter Goodman hits his seventeenth
home run in the ninth inning off Brian Bellow.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
It's a two run shot.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
That scored Tyler Freeman, who's been highly productive had the
ability to get on bas this year for the Rockies
five total hits. A Goodman account for two of those,
including the home run. Jordan Beck had a hit in
the ninth, Brenton Doyle had a hit, and Tyler Freeman
as well in one walk it was Brenton Doyle also.
(01:26):
The Red Sox had eleven hits walked three times, home
runs by Trevor Story and Jaron Duran, a triple by
Gonzales as well in there. The Rockies again, moving to
twenty one and seventy one on the season and still
(01:50):
well a pace for the worst record of all time.
It's just been a frustratingly tough season. Rockies play again
tomorrow night, same bat time, same bat channel, right here
on KOA. Antonio Senza tell it takes amount for the
Rockies three and twelve on the year, six point five
seven e RA against Lucas Scilito five and one with
(02:13):
a three six six ERA, and you can hear that
coverage starting right here on KOA. I believe pregame starts
at four point thirty tomorrow, So Rockies finishing up that
road stretch with the Boston Red Sox day they get
a day off, they got a three game stretch at Cincinnati,
(02:35):
and then you get the All Star break and they
come back and they get the Minnesota Twins and Say
Louis Cardinals at home. So not a whole lot of
respite in there for your your Colorado Rockies. You do
get up to go to Baltimore in Cleveland to end
the month, and maybe that'll yield some some wins as well,
(02:57):
but just another another miserable day at the ballpark for
the fifth in the nl West Colorado Rockies. The NVER
Nuggets are not going to be seeking a contract extension.
Excuse me, Dekla Jokic is not going to be seeking
a contract extension from the Nuggets this summer. He is
going to delay talks until next summer.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
That's according to ESPN.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yokic has three years remaining on a five year, two
hundred and seventy six million dollar contract extension he signed
in the summer of twenty twenty two. Three time MVP
has a player option in the final year of the
deal with sixty two point eight million that'll be in
twenty seven to twenty eight. Yokichi is eligible to sign
a three year, two hundred million dollar extension up to
up until October twentieth, the first year that extension would
(03:47):
have replaced his player option. By waiting until the twenty
twenty six season offseason to work on extension, the Nugget
Star is able to add a fourth year at additional
seventy seven million.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Josh Crocky said the team.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Will offer Jokich an extension this summer, but also understood
how it could benefit Yokich to sign one next summer instead. Jokic,
for his part, has remained silent. Krokey he told reporters recently,
we're definitely going to offer it. I'm not sure if
he's going to accept it or not, because we're also
going to explain every financial parameter around him signing now
(04:22):
versus later to be equally transparent. That's the way we
always are, and then he makes the best decision for
himself as family and will support him in it, you know.
It's obviously made many changes over the past few months
in the hopes of improving around Jokic, replacing head coach
Michael Malone with David Adelman, replaced general manager of Calvin
(04:43):
Booth with Ben Tenzer and John Wallace. In other titled
roles than general manager Tenser and Wallace turn around and
traded Michael Porter Junior for Brooklyn's Cameron Johnson. They agreed
to deal Dario Sarich to Sacramento for Jonas Valancius to
back up Yokich, who and he is still playing coy
on whether or not he's going to going to play
(05:06):
for the Nuggets. They brought back Bruce Brown, signed Tim
Harway Junior, and so will. It remains to be seen
if You'll catch waits to sign an extension next year
or decides to do one this year. The lots of
unus trade would provide yo Kitch with a legitimate backup
(05:28):
for the first time in years, but as of today,
it remains unclear if he'll actually suit up for the Nuggets.
He is under contract with Denver on the second year
of a three year, thirty point three million dollar deal.
He offered no insight today as to whether he intends
to honor that contract, and mid reports that he wants
to play elsewhere. Annis addressed the subject publicly for the
(05:49):
first time since the trade, granting an interview to local
media from the B eight basketball summit in his home
country of Lithuania. The interview was conducted Uanian, so the
nuances of its answer are slightly muddled in translation, but
the gist of it, per my use of Google Translate.
When he was asked if he would play for the
Nuggets the next season, would would say, and again this
(06:13):
is a Google translate of his quote, that we will
find out only when the first game is played. Everything
will be clear. So again the new language nuance, something
could be lost there, but that's that's the best I
could do with that interview. He was also asked about
his Nuggets obligations in terms of his availability to play
for Lithuitia's national team for the EuroBasket tournament. And here's
(06:35):
what he said about the trade that's not official yet,
And again Google translate here quote. Once the trade is done,
will make a plan. They'll express their wishes, how they think,
how they see it, medical examination, other details.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
It will depend on the team. So again Google Translate
translating his response.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Not exactly reassuring for Nuggets and fans hopeful that they'd
finally solve the long standing challenge of providing a solid
bout back up and saw.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
The backup minutes for Yokich.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
The hang up is his reported desire to play overseas. Reportedly,
there's mutual interests between between Jonas and joining Greek EuroLeague
team Panathinikos.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
I always murdered that name, so sorry.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
But his NBA contract gives the Nuggets exclusivity over his
basketball rights, so if he were to play basketball anywhere else,
it would require the Nuggets to release him from his contract.
According to ESPN, the Nuggets have no intention of doing so,
and the.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Plan in Denver is for him to his deal.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yokich played thirty six point seven minutes per game last season,
the most of his career by more than two minutes
per game. He did so because the Nuggets basically lacked
that effective backup option in the post and were drastically
worse when he was off the floor. As everyone saw,
Yokich faced two physical matchups in the post in a
pair of grueling seven game playoff series when he got
(08:01):
matched up against Clippers center Zubach and Thunder center As
a heartenstein and with no viable backup, his minutes increase
in the pro season from thirty six point seven to
forty point two minutes per game. Jonas Sis six eleven
two sixty five is a reliable physical presence in the
post who could give Yokic much needed relief in similar situations.
(08:25):
He was an impact player for the Kings and the
Wizards last season. He averaged ten point four points and
seven point seven boards and just eighteen point eight minutes
per game, and those are the exact kind of minutes
the Nuggets are seeking in relief of Yokich. But right
now it remains to be seen whether or not he
will actually suit up for the Nuggets. Zach, what do
(08:48):
you make of my decision to just shoot past the
fact that the Rockies are terrible and the bane of
my existence.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
I think it's a solid choice. I mean, I know
I'm in the same boat right now. I'd much rather
talk about the Nuggets and how excited I am for
their prospects next season, to at least they've put together
a competent team worthy of Nikola Yokich's prime to try
and chase another ring. It doesn't feel like they're cheaping
out right now, and I'm excited for it. I'm definitely
(09:16):
anxious about the Valentunist thing. As you were laying out there.
It's a very concerning situation, I hope, and based on
reports coming out about them being one of the finals
for al Horford.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I think this is the way it's trending.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
But I hope right now they're working on Horford in
the background, and if Horford's down, just signed Horford and
you know, do the free buy out with Valentunis to
free up the money necessary for it. I think that's
just so much more appealing at this point than you know,
bringing in a guy who very clearly doesn't want to
be here.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
It seems, yeah, And I wonder why.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I mean to me, I mean, I understand I've heard
things about him wanting to kind of go home, and
Greece isn't exactly next door to Lithuania, but it's at
least in the same time zone, you know, in greased
as much further south than Lithuini. But I mean, does
he just want more minutes? He doesn't want to be
the backup.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
He wants to go be the star starter somewhere. That
that's what I mean.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
He his numbers in limited minute eighteen point eight minutes
per game, getting ten point four and seven point seven
for a big man.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
That's not bad at all, and the money's better in
denver To it is weird.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I imagine some of it's being homesick, like you're laying out,
you know, even if it is further south, you know,
it's it's the distance between like here in Kansas City
or something.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
It's it's a super easy flight. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
But he, I mean, he played second fiddle to the Sabanas,
you know, for the Kings. I'm just wondering if he
wants a bigger bite of the pie, you know, like
if he feels like he's got the numbers and then
you know it'd be able to get out there and
play more minutes and doesn't want to sit behind Jokic
where he's going to be limited to, you know, ten
twelve minutes a game.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, he can chase the euro League Championship as probably
the number one option or at least something pretty close
to it. That Pantonacos I probably put you their name there.
They're stacked with former NB recently removed from the NBA guy.
So you know, maybe being the star on a team
chasing a euro championship seems more appealing to him at
(11:11):
this point than chase being you know, the sixth seventh
eighth man on NBA championship team. That seems like a
funky priority set to me. But maybe that's just where
he's at in his career at this point.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah, it's it's something to keep our eye on as
we go here. I would love for him to play here,
but as it sits, I lean towards he probably winds
up going to Greece since the Nuggets find another option.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
We'll see how that goes.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Five six, sixth nine zero is the text line here
to talk about what you guys want to talk about.
We had a couple of a couple of good texts
come in that if two thousand and three Detroit Tigers
had twenty five wins through ninety two games, that is
more than the Nuggets, half as four more wins to
the Nuggets half I mean the Nuggets the Rockies, like, yeah,
(12:01):
they're so bad.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I can't even under their name. It's it's terrible.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
They've got a couple of wins though, and it knocked
them off.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Their historic on their backs.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
We're back, oh seventy one, we're up back worse than
the White Sox last year, So like one hundred and
sixty two game record is still within play. But you know,
the worst since eighteen ninety six.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Stuff, or worse since nineteen oh four. Stuff. It seems
like that at least as the fate they've avoided for now.
You know, they got to keep winning.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
But it's uh man, it's been a really rough season
for the Rocks.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, and it's just tough too. It's tough to continue
to you know, to do it day in and day out.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
And you know it's gonna be tough to play for
that too. I mean, imagine being in the middle of
that series and you know, being in the middle of
a series and just like, we're just not We're not
even competitive, you know, we're not We're not anywhere.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Close to competitive. What are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
And how tough it can be to to that the uh,
you know, three Tigers finished what forty seven and one fourteen?
I think if I remember correctly, I could be off
on that double somebody double check me, but I think
I'm right on that.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
I think I remember that you had uh what was
that the Orioles and.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Was it twenty eighteen had one hundred and fifteen losses
if I remember correctly, Just trying to think of like
modern era teams that were supremely bad forty three and
one nineteen Uh. In two thousand and three for the Rockies,
I mean for the Tigers, just just brutally bad.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Last year's White Sox team forty one and one twenty one?
Can the Can the Rockies get to forty two wins
and eclips last year's I mean, you have to double
your win total.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
They have to pick up the pace of a lot
down the stretch.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Yeah, And I don't feel great about that, especially if
they sell some pieces at the trade deadline whatever, because
there's a chance they move, you know, at Tyler Freeman
or at Jake Bird. And if you do that, I
don't know how your winning pace is going to take
a step up. It's just it's going to be really,
really tough to do. Looking at you know, the all
(14:11):
time records.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Twenty one, thirty four for the the Cleveland Spiders.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
The fewest wins by a modern era team since nineteen
oh one is thirty six. I'm not sure if they'll
hit thirty six. And then that was a team that
only played one hundred and fifty three games. Right Philadelphia
Athletics in nineteen sixteen and the Boston Braves in nineteen
thirty five played one hundred and fifty three games and
they had thirty six and thirty eight wins respectively.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, I don't know if they'll hit those marks the
modern one hundred and sixty two game season.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
I mean, the Mets were forty one twenty back in
sixty two. But the modern one is the White Sox
last year forty one and one twenty one.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
And I don't think they're going to get there.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
You'd see, you'd have to double your win total and
you know, and they don't have. I mean, you almost
have to go five hundred the rest of the way
pretty close to it.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Yeah, I think they Yeah, I think they end up
like thirty five wins. If I had to put a
number on it, probably right around thirty five.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
That is.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Brutally bad.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Now, their schedule has been incredibly difficult on the front end. Yeah,
it should be a little easier on the back end.
Maybe that helps for something, but it, you know, talking
out of both sides of my mouth here, it should
remain to be fairly difficult because every single other member
of their division has a winning record except maybe the Diamondbacks,
who if they are under five hundred, it's only by
(15:30):
a game or two.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah, The current standings.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
In the UH In the NL West, as I switched
tabs here, I had it open. The Diamondbacks are one
game under at forty five and forty six the rest
of the division as a winning record.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
And by a bit. The Padres are the next worst
team in. There are six games over five hundred.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Yeah, the pottery is really six and a half games
lead on the in the West, the Padres. The Giants
are not that far behind the Dodgers. You know, five
and a ha, sixt and gayff games at this point
in the season is not much. Arizona ten games out.
It's a little a little rich, but the Rockies are.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Only thirty four and a half games back at this point,
mathematically still in it. Yeah, time to get some angels
in the outfit.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
They're gonna get They're gonna get eliminated in July. Like
that's gonna be a thing. You're gonna be eliminated from
the playoffs in July. Let's I don't even know what to.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Do with that. I just don't.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
I don't mean to harp on it, but it's so
comically bad that I don't.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
I don't know what to do with it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I'm actually gonna get out to a Rockies game here
next home stretch the Twins. When the Twins are in town,
I'm I go out to think that's Sunday and go
out to That'll be my first Rockies game of the year.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
I haven't made it out there yet.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I want to, but because I've been doing some of
the games and then I'm also here so many nights,
I just I haven't made it out for one, but
I would love to. That's the one problems. Like the
ballpark is still really fun to go to. Yeah, I
don't put any I'm excited to go to a game
at some point this season.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I put. I have no expectations for them to win.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
Like if I go to a Broncos game with my
girlfriend or something, I'm like, man, it would this will
be a lot less fun if they get smoked or
if they lose. You know, I definitely want them to
win to maximize my experience rock going to a Rockies game.
I expect them to lose by ten runs and I'm
just there for you know, having having a fun time outside.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Well for me, so uh, Broncos training camp starts July
twenty fifth, and so for me, I'm like, well, if
I don't get out there. I'm going to take like
a four day weekend, I think that weekend before that,
that week leading up to it, and that's what that's
my dempress because once training camp starts, we work, you know,
we work six days a week around here.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
We've got to be locked in from there.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Yeah, bean, what January till January or you know, maybe
figure if they can figure, say, I'm just put it
out there.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
If you don't like it, set it right back.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
But so this is the only opportunity I'm gonna have
to go all year, and so I'm just packing that weekend.
I'm gonna go see Rick Lewis in his show the nineteenth.
I'm gonna, you know, go out to get out to
the Twins game on the twentieth. Just try to have
me a fun, you know, relaxing weekend where I get
to do some stuff around town and then you know,
hit up training camp.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Training camps a couple of weeks away. It is just
a couple of weeks away. I can't wait for it.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'm hoping I'm gonna go as many days as I'm
elysically free, Yeah to go.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
It's it's just one of those like every year, the
gap time gets short now. It was shorter this year
because they were in the playoffs, which they had been
a quite some time, but they're there. You know, every year,
it just feels like the downtime in between U season
feels shorter and shorter.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Well, the NFL's spent so much smarter about that. They're
capitalistic about that through compared to the NBA. You know,
the NBA Finals just ended and it's like boom, there's
the draft, Boom, there's NBA Summer League action happening. The NFL,
you know, to its credit, has known how to stretch
these things out, so you get a month of pre
free agency pipe and then a month of free agency,
(19:00):
and then a month of pre draft type, and then
a couple of weeks of post draft reaction and then
you got ota. They've done such a good job of
budgeting all their events throughout the offseason to kind of
piecemeal us through with some news items. This is one
of the few dead periods we have that we're experiencing
right now.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Yeah, and that's I mean, you know, the NFL also
knows how to let it breathe, you know, give a
touch so that it creates conversation.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Around around its events.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
But yeah, it's just one of those things like we're
gonna be We got training camps starting what July twenty Friday,
July twenty fifth, at ten am, Broncos training camp kicks off.
You got your first joint practice will be Thursday, August fourteenth.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
That's with the Arizona Cardinals. We got that preseason game
right around. It's just it's it's just coming in quick
and it's coming up. It's coming up fast.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Is there any particular, like any particular game you're more
looking forward to this year the Broncos are playing.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Man, I have a pretty good grip on the regular
season schedule. I don't think I know who they're playing
in the pre season at all.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
I'm being honest. I know the Cardinals, Cardinals, Saints, and
the Niners.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
The Niners still play August ninth. Okay, that's the first one.
Then they get the uh and that's at San Francisco.
And the only home preseason game we get is Arizona
and then the get away game in New Orleans, and
then the season starts with Tennessee here on September seventh.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I think I'm most excited to see the running backs.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
You know, I think running back is something that's so
hard to scout in these training camp practices or OTA
practices the media is allowed into just because the contacts
paired down so much. The linemen aren't really blocking, you know,
there isn't real tackle, and it's so hard to get
a read on what's really going on. But I think
in the preseason you can also just because it's one
(20:44):
of the more simple NFL positions, I think you can
get a read on it much quicker than you can
on on others.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yeah, and that's that's one of those things I think
we're all looking forward to because I think there's there's
a lot of speculation out there.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
I will say this though, and we'll get into this
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
I recorded a segment with Ryan Edward's earlier today.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
We'll get to that in the in the next hour.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
But I don't think anybody has their pulse on how
this running back room is going to shake out, because
if you go back and you look at what Sean
Bayton has done historically, it's a true rotation. Like the
viability in terms of fantasy football really only came about
for Alan Kamara.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
You saw rotations that.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Had you know, Latavious Murray and Pierre Thomas and Mark
Gangram and then sprinkling of darren Sprolls and some of
the Reggie Bush and you.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Know, all that kind of stuff. It It really has
been a true rotation.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
And so I think people that are guessing or guestimating
out there about this kind of stuff, but lead backs
and all that.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
JK.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Dobbins probably early in the season, just by virtue of
being a veteran, will probably get a few a few
more opportunities. But I suspect at the end of the year,
you're probably looking at a three, maybe even a four
headed rushing attack that has a fairly even distribution of
touches and targets.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Now, when you say.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Three or four headed, do you think bone Nicks is
a large part of that formula? He was kind of
early last season and I wasn't sure if the decrease
was the coaching staff having to change a feeling or
Bonnicks getting beat up there, But the.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Decrease was he fractured his back.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Like you know, I think I think they want to
have him run less if at all possible early in
the season. You'll get early in games, you know, you
get my carrier two just to make defenses play it, honest,
But I think the idea is to not have him
putting his body on the line as much so that
we don't have situations last year like the Raiders game,
(22:41):
where you know, you get a fracture back and you're
playing with that down the stretch. You had the miserable
couple of couple of games. I think they're throwing the
football because of it. It wasn't quite wasn't quite the same,
So you know, I think I think in that scenario,
I think probably bo I'm not including him in that
(23:01):
foreheaded attack. He'll he'll get his in terms of they
will use him to get some carries and do some things.
But I don't believe that bo Nix is rushing is
a feature. I think that's a bonus in a lot
of areas. I don't think that's something that they are
(23:22):
I don't think they're they're counting on that in that
regard five six, six nine zeros of text line, Ben,
are you excited for the Nuggets to get bounced in
the second round again?
Speaker 2 (23:32):
I hope not. I certainly hope that's not the case.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
I think this is a much better team than what
we've seen the last two seasons and the last two
to the team. Each of these last two seasons was
one fourth quarter choke away in both series from not
going out in the second round and maybe winning the
whole thing. You know, if the note Son get knocked
out by the Tea Wolves, I think they're probably playing
in the NBA Finals against the Celtics. Maybe the Celtics
win that series, but Nuggets would have been right there,
(23:57):
and if they beat the Thunder, I think they would
have won the title this year.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I so too.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I think if they beat the Thunder, they would have
been in it, you know, against against Indianimals. C Well,
five six, six nine zero is the text line seven
two ohs? Is Major League Baseball force Rockies ownership change?
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Sort of?
Speaker 1 (24:21):
No, they're not going to the Rockies are incredibly profitable
franchise just because they're not winning. You know, I don't
think the problem. I do think part of the problem
is ownership. I don't think the problem is totally ownership,
because if you look at the two components of being
an owner, right, the one is the product on the field,
and then two is the experience. Right, you look at
(24:44):
the Penners they've they've tried to upgrade the product on
the field. They're probably going to you know, ultimately build
a new stadium all that kind of stuff, and the
product on the field's gotten better, right, So they're winning
on both ends. The Momfords, big momfforts created a great experience.
The ballpark is fun, the area downtown is fun.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
There's a reason people keep going out to that stadium
and keep paying it.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Because it's a good experience.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
He's you know, he's created a fun fan experience.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
So in that aspect, I would say that he's he's
a good owner. Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Then you look at the other side of that, and
that's the product on the field, which at this point
we all know is miserable. And that's the part where
he needs to clean house on the baseball side of things,
and you know, and go in a different direction. And
this whole shuffle of the deck chairs and loyalty and
Rockies culture and all that kind of stuff for great sound.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Bites, uh, to you know, to people who don't know better.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
But as you've watched this product, you see there is
a fundamentally functionally incorrect thing going on withinside this organization
on the baseball side of things. And you know, I've
I've said many times, why don't you go to Japan
again to Deecki Kurayama, one of the one of the
best baseball minds of all time, who's a free agent
right now.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
He's gotten up managing and everything.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Bring him in as a consultant, have him look the
organization over top to bottom and restructure the Rocky's organism
so that you know, you get in the best baseball
people in there.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
And I think that's that's the thing that needs to change.
I don't know that.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
You know, if if Dick Momford, who's you know, has
promoted his son Walker to you know, to kind of
run things start next year.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I guess we'll see how that goes.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
But if the baseball side of things doesn't change, it
doesn't matter. You could play musical chairs with ownership. But
at the baseball side of things doesn't change. Other than
that they've been a good he's been a good owner.
They've been willing to spend. They've spent on guys. They's
been on the wrong guys, but they spent and they've
created a fun atmosphere for people to go out and
joy games.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
And I would suggest that in those things.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I can't fault him as an owner because he's doing
that part of it. It's the baseball people he's entrusted
that are letting us all down.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Yeah, hopefully they can uh turn over some some new
leads there.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
They might need to turn over a whole forced at
this rate, let's get to an NFL six pack.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
It's time for the NFL sixth pad. I'm going to
insight and insight information you can't fine anywhere else the
top six headlines.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
What In ESPN's league sourced position rankings, Zach Allen failed
to make the top ten defensive tackle list, but was
included as an honorable mention. I have the list handy
in case you want to refer to it. How high
do you think zach Allen should have been rapped? Well,
I guess it depends because we talk it even our
odd front.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I mean, the position is different.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
If you're talking about a forty three end versus thirty four,
those are different.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Positions they're talking.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
They lumped thirty four ends with four or three defensive
tackles interior defensive line right.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Well, if they did that, then I would suggest he
belongs in the top ten at the position.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
He certainly one of the most productive.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Who did they have ranked ahead of it.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
The top ten list? This is per This is Jeremy
Fowler's annual thing. You know, writes it from lead sources
all throughout. Dexter Lawrence at one, Chris Jones at two, right,
Jalen Carter at three, Yeah, Jeffrey Simmons is at four, Yeah,
Quinnin Williams at five, Yeah, Leonard Williams at six, Madubiku,
(28:07):
I'm deep madubk Yeah, to Forrest Buckner at eight, Videvea
at nine, Yeah, as a nose, Cam Hayward at ten, Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Ali belongs that list. I don't know if I'm putting
some of those names ahead of him. I probably have
at seventh. I think on that list there's some some
names I would have changed the order a little bit.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
But you know, I don't think it's It's.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Not like an egregious snub, but it's one of those
things like, come on, man.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
This guy, look, what does he gotta do.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
He's just because he's hyper productive, but he's on a
good defense. You're you're you know, you get it to
the other guys who like, what who's the tenth name
in the list again, is it Cam Jordan, Cam Hayward,
Cam Hayward.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I'm sorry, why is Cam Hayward still on the list?
At this point?
Speaker 3 (28:45):
I was seeing the same thing with Vidavea, Like he
was great during Tampa's Super Bowl run. He's single handedly
was making them an elite run defense.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
He's a great nose, but he's not really like a
forty three defensive tackle.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
He's a nose town he's a zero. Yeah, and he's
just he hasn't played the same pick. He hasn't been
the same with presence.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Well true, but I mean he doesn't even he does
not play the same position that Zach Allen plays.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Like Zach Allen's like a five tech and vietave is
a zero. Like comparing them is weird to begin with.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Two Next up here, ESPN's Bill barnwell More rankings ranked
the Denver Broncos weapons as the league's well twenty third
best cast of weapons, never ranked thirtieth and last year's
rankings and twenty fourth two years of years ago. Do
you think that ranking feels right for Denver in that
twenty three range? And is this Denver's best supporting cast
(29:35):
of weapons during the Sean paydon era.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I'm assuming this is offense weapons.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yes, running back, wide receiver, tight end. I mean the
tight end room is still sort of a question mark.
You know, Evan Ingram is technically listed as a tight
end a receiver outside of sudden like you're hoping that
Vele and Mims and Pat Bryant becomes something, but you
don't you don't really know running back room.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Again question marks. What is JK.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Dobbins gonna be? Like here r J. Harvey drafted him.
Can McLoughlin or arrestimate.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Be that third guy? I mean that this is fair
to me.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I think they're gonna surprise people, and you know, I
think that they're better than people.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Think the same thing last year.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
When when I said this defense was gonna be one
of the top defenses in the league, and I was
I got scoffed at, you know, and then come to
find out they're like they got rid of their best
player in Justin Simmons, and I was like, Okay, but
they're gonna be a better def The're gonna be a
better unit overall this year, and they were, you know,
I don't know. I mean a lot of this depends
on what bo Nix is in year two? Do we
(30:44):
experience a sophomore slump?
Speaker 2 (30:45):
Is there?
Speaker 1 (30:45):
You know, with the league catches up to him in
terms of tape and how he adjusted to that and
you know it was it a one trick pony or
is this is he the real deal? And we're going
to find that out. I think the supporting cast is fine.
I don't think you I mean, I guess you could
ask for more, but what do you really asking for there?
You've got a couple of sureheaded pass catchers, you've got
a couple of speedy guys, you've got a slot tided
(31:08):
mismatch in Angram, and you've got a stable of running backs.
I don't I don't think it's bad. I just think
there's a lot of unknown I'd.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Agree a couple surprises here in the rankings. Looking a
little closer, the Steelers ranked just ahead of the Broncos
at twenty one, which he's solely on DK Metcalf. Yeah,
that's the thing, it's DK J J. Smith is Pat Fryarmouth,
But that's might be there. John Who there? Who's the
other running back after Jalen Morn? Didn't they draft Johnson?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Johnson? I mean, maybe there's a lot of unknown there too.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
Yeah, I'd prefer the Broncos cast, but maybe that's some
orange titted glasses. And then I was surprised to see
the Broncos ranked ahead of the Chicago Bears and ahead
of the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Yeah, that's weird because.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
James Cook, like Kleil Shakiir, is in a superstar, but
he's a pretty good number one option.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
I think they've got a pretty receiving corps.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Yeah, a couple of nice tight ends, and that James
Cook is a border not maybe elite, but just bordering
good running back. That's yeah, that's a little weird that
the Bears they got plenty of weapons.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Yeah, that's weird. That's a I don't know, what do
I know?
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Three in Netflix's Quarterback series, which just dropped.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Have you happened to watch it? Yeah? I got through
about twenty minutes so far.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
It was a matter of fact, the game was a
little faster than I thought it was going to so
I didn't get a chance to get all the way through.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
So not out of boredom.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
It wasn't like you turned it off after twenty No, no, no,
I just time is what it Is Well in the
series Kirk Cousins spoiler alert, I guess he said that
he felt misled by the Atlanta Falcons after they selected
Michael Pennox and said he might have just stayed in
Minnesota had he known Atlanta would draft Penis. Talked about
how much he loved Minnesota and how there really wasn't
any reason for him to leave outside of trying to
(32:51):
avoid being stuck behind a rookie quarterback. Where do you
think Cousins would have landed if he knew Atlanta planned
on taking a quarterback in the top ten? And do
you think Atlanta treated Cousins unfairly?
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Well? I think he would have stated in Minnesota. I
Kirk Cousins telling the truth.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
The whole reason, the impetus behind leaving Minnesota was that
he knew they were drafting a quarterback, and you know,
he didn't want to be the guy who was, you know,
sitting behind some rookie, you know, as the pressure mouse
to get them in, because that's what happens right.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
In Atlanta.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
From everybody that I know, did not reveal their their
Michael Pennock's plans to tell that, not even to Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
But not to anybody until the day of the draft.
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
I don't think they treated him unfairly, but if they,
they may have misled him.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
You know, Hey, you're gonna come in here and be
the guy.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
The other part of that was Kirk was never healthy
from his He was not healthy. He was never healthy
from his from his previous injury. And I think Kirk
Cousins will be better this year. I don't know about
Michael Pennix. I saw, if you you know, we saw
enough last year where I'm like, that's a big question mark.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
I don't know. We didn't see an We didn't see
anything that said, oh, this is the guy, and see
they'll say he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (34:01):
But it was just kind of like, well, oh, Drew
Locke's debut season in like twenty nineteen, he had that
like four or five game edition where it's like there's
some high heights been there and nice, there were some
nice there were better games from Drew in that five
game stretch, and there were text next yeater.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
Yeah, Penis didn't have a tough you know, but I mean.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
That Texans defense that year was eleven reasonably placed road
cones out there.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I mean they were terrible. Look, I get where Kirk
Cousins is coming from. They probably lured him in.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
With, hey, you're going to be the guy while having
this other plan, and he was leaving a situation so
that he just didn't incur that situation. I think if
both parties had been completely honest with each other, and
that's not to say Cousins wasn't, but Atlanta should have been.
If if Atlanta had been honest with him, who knows
if he'd gone there or not. And I think that's
part of the problem. So maybe they did lure him
in under false pretense. Whatever the case is.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
He's there now, he's collecting the checks, but I'm sure
he'd like to be playing.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Now to what you said about Minnesota, him maybe staying
in Minnesota, if Atlanta was upfront with him in that reality,
do you think minute so it still takes J. J.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
McCarthy's and I think it makes it easier to take
him because you know, you've got a bridge quarterback and
Kirk Cousins and the JJ McCarthy would be the guy,
would start to be the guy this year.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
Maybe it wouldn't have even benefit last year.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
And if that happens, Sam Donald probably doesn't go to
the Vikings. He probably goes to the Broncos, right, they.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Were the runner up.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
If they were the runner up on that and so
that would have been Sam Donald and bow Knicks here
instead of Jared Stidham and Bo Nicks.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
And then bow Knicks probably doesn't have to start the
season in that reality because Sam Donald would in theory
be able to put up a better fight than who.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Knows if Sam had gone on the heater like you
did last year and where that would have landed him
and all that kind of stuff. He's just a lot
of what ifs there in terms of that series of dominoes.
But yeah, Sam Donald would have would have been the
guy here.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
It's a pretty fascinating butterfly. Yeah, and now Samson Seattle,
I don't think that's going to go well. That offensive line,
and I just still think that coaching staff is going
to go well.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
They already fired their first time offensive coordinator that was terrible.
They're throwing them a sixty times a game last year
and I'm not sure they got any better. So maybe
Clink Kubiak can recapture that Week one in two matchic. Yeah,
I we'll see yah the two games with you know
him and Derek carrre light in the world on fire
for a.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
Minute there or.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
At his summer football camp, Dak Prescott told the media
that he was fully healthy and would.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Be a full go for training camp this summer.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
What are your expectations for Dak Prescott in twenty twenty
five and specifically, do you think he'll be closer to
the twenty twenty three version of himself that finished runner
up in the MVP race or the twenty twenty four
version that threw a lot of interceptions and was plagued
by injuries.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
I think he's gonna be good. I think Dallas is
gonna be good this year.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
Defense, they're gonna have to figure some things out, but
on the offensive side of the ball.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Think Dallas could be good this year. I genuinely do.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
And I think Dak Prescott, if he's healthy, will have
a big year.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
A little bit of question about the run game there
in Dallas, but they plan on being a.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Run first football team, a power run football team, and
then throwing ball off of that power run game, and
so it's gonna be It's gonna be interesting, you know,
Brian Schottenheimer.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
They they kind of clown that higher when it was made.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
But I mean, I think Dallas Hi Dallas could be
the second best team in that division this year. I
think Washington's gonna come back to hurt a little bit
this year, and I think Hi Dallas could could.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Move up in a second in that division.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Schodneimer gives me some of the like Dan Campbell or
Nick Sirianni vibes in the sense that it's the higher
that everyone's clowning in the off season beforehand, and then
it winds up kind of panning out. Also a guy
that's maybe a better He had a I forget if
it was that the owners meet probably wouldn't have been
the owners meetings, but it was some off season event,
and he had a great quote about all the stuff
about head coaching he learned from his dad, and the
(37:42):
different skills between head coaching and offensive coordinating. And he
looks like the type of guy that could be a
much better head coach than he was a coordinator.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
That's the same thing I said when he was higher.
Brian's got a better skill set for the head coach.
He's more of a CEO than he is like a
you know, an offensive coordinator than an Ex's and o's guy.
He's he relates to players, he relates, you know, he
sees one.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Of those kind of guys. I think he's better suited
in that role.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
The guy that brought into b THEOC, you know, comes
from the offensive line background. They're gonna want to power
on the ball. Fine, man, I just think people are
sleeping on Dallas a little bit this year. Now with
Zach Martin out the door and you know that new
caster running backs. Do you think they'll be able to
establish that identity.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I think they're gonna try.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
If I can't, then you're gonna have Dac back there,
dropping back doing sixty times a game.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
But I think they're gonna try and and run the
ball and be effective doing that. George Pecktt Pickens is
definitely hoping for the format of this.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
Well, yeah, you got picking ceedee Lamb out there, and
it's gonna be interesting because those guys have coNP bentary
skill sets, so I can't. I that is just a
sneaking feeling that Dallas is gonna be a lot better
than people think this year.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Five hard Knocks.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
Speaking of the NFC East Hard Knocks, is set to
spend training camp with the Buffalo Bills and the regular
season with the NFC East. Which edition of the show
are you more excited for between those two and do
you think we will ever see.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
An offseason Hard Knocks again or did Shane ruined that
for us?
Speaker 1 (39:02):
I mean Hard Knocks has gotten progressively worse as the
year's going on. I'm more interested in seeing the East
just because it's a variety of different things.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
It's so like when it first came out, it kind.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Of did give you a little bit of glimpse of things,
but it's so sanitized now that you just thought you're
not really getting you know, what it was originally and
recapturing that. Because we're so star for football content, we'll
watch it. But yeah, I mean the NFC East, there's
so many Joe, Shane and then will be back there
fighting for their lives. Now all of a sudden, everybody
(39:35):
recognizes that dan Quinn's a good coach and they got
a great quarterback, and all of a sudden, all those
people that were crapping on dan Quinn or eating their words,
You've got the Eagles with the Super Bowl champions, and
then you've got this thing in Dallas. That's got people
with an eyebrow raising and see, he's just gonna be entertaining.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
I didn't even think about that angle with.
Speaker 3 (39:50):
The Hard Knocks crew coming back into the Shiant's facility
that you got. I have to imagine that'll be very
awkward and uncomfortable for all parties involved. And to your point, yes,
it used to be a great show. And then to
try and get teams to do it. The NFL they
answer to that rule where they can force teams to
do it, but teams now get final cut and it
really sanitized and watered the whole thing down here.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Yeah, lot, And so that's that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
You're really not getting a lot of that that sort
of stuff that that people want out of that show.
And so I'll watch a little bit of it here there.
If there's something interesting, I might go back and rewatch it.
You know, I've Hard Knocks has never been appointment viewing
for me, not in the last I don't know, eight
or nine years.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
I'm surprised they went with the bills too. I guess
the bills volunteered, but I think they got volunteered.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Oh well, weird that they get told I know, I
know Josh Allen is like the big star, but there's
not a lot of off season storylines with the Bills
where I'm like, I'm super curious or the Dermott's put.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
His foot in his mouth on a few quotes here there.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
You remember he had that thing where he compared compared
their next game to what was it the coordination of
the hijackers on nine to eleven or whatever, and yeah,
like like.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
Overcoming long odds, he tried to teamwork. Yes, hid the
nine to eleven hijackers or what.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
Yeah, he put himself in hot water on that. But
I I just look, I mean, and I think Sean
mcdermot's could coach. But they're up against it too, because
you're talking about the John Fox effect. Right, Have we
reached the ceiling of where this team can be? Do
we need to bring somebody in to get them over
the finish line? And that's that's where they're at with it.
This is Sean McDermott's make or break year up there
in Buffalo. There's a couple of coaches like that. In fact,
(41:23):
the AFC East has got that with Mike McDaniel down
there in Miami.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
Sean McDermott is on that. Uh.
Speaker 1 (41:30):
There's a couple of coaches around the league with with
UH with kind of the the eyeball, Mike Tomlin, you know,
you gotta win, you gotta win a playoff game. They're
not gonna fire him early, but they won't renew his
contracts if he's if he's out there not.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
Not winning again.
Speaker 3 (41:41):
And the last coach in the East, even Mike Frable,
I feel I had some pressure on him. Drud Mayo's
the one and done nothing to be fired, but you're
now expected to come in and look a lot better
than the guy who.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Was a disaster. True, but Mayo was always a one
and done. They had that in his contract.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
They weren't expecting him that to happen all that quickly,
and it was seen his contract guaranteed. They wanted to
hire Vrable last year and they couldn't legally because the
Drod mail thing. So you know, Zach Taylor in cincinnati's
another one where you're like, okay, like you gotta figure
this out, and he's got no defense.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
So that's gonna be a that's gonna be fascinating to
watch too. Six Maurice Jones Drew ranks R J.
Speaker 3 (42:18):
Harvey as the Broncos best running back and as the
twenty fourth best starting running back in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (42:24):
What do you make of that ranking and which running
back in.
Speaker 3 (42:27):
The Denver Broncos backfield do you think ultimately finishes the
regular season with the most touches. I think we agree
it'll be a split backfield, but who gets the largest workload?
Speaker 2 (42:36):
First of all? M JD gets.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
Laughed at for a lot of his running back opinions
and then they usually pan out. So I'm just gonna
I'm just gonna tell you now, m J D. He
knows a thing or so about playing a position. He
played it himself.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
He's huge on r J. Harvey pre draft. Yeah he was.
He's marsh Jones.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Drew knows the running back position and he's put out
some takes before where people be like, what are you
talking about? And then you know they usually wind up
coming true. In terms of the Broncos backfield, Dobbins probably,
if we're counting touches and targets like receptions and running
the ball, probably Dobbins, Although I think it's it's a
one ay if he's healthy.
Speaker 2 (43:12):
If he's not healthy, then it'll be RJ. Harvey and
then there'll.
Speaker 1 (43:15):
Be a huge drop in between Estma and McLaughlin back there,
and then you know, if one of those guys were
to go down, Baby Watson, whoever it is that.
Speaker 2 (43:25):
You know, becomes the fourth guy. I think that's probably
the safe bet. If r J. Harvey manages to.
Speaker 3 (43:33):
Get the lion's share of the touches in that backfield
or the Lion's share of that carries in that backfield,
I think that bodes incredibly well for the Denver Broncos offense.
Like if a time traveler from January of next year
came into the studio right now and told us RJ.
Harvey ends up being the most productive running back on
the team, not telling us where that line is, but
just that he was the most productive. I think that's
probably a pretty good sign for the offense, just because
(43:56):
Dobbins was the floor raizer of that room and RJ.
Speaker 2 (43:59):
Harvey's gonna more so determined the ceiling.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
Yeah, last year, I mean, Javonte had fifty two percent
of the snaps at running back last year. I think
it'll be in the next closest was McLoughlin with twenty
seven percent.
Speaker 2 (44:12):
I believe that it will. You'll wind up seeing a
more even split with those running backs this.
Speaker 3 (44:19):
Year, I would hope. So last year's running back room
was incredibly frustrating. It would hard to be much less
than that.
Speaker 1 (44:25):
He couldn't trust McLoughlin to pass pro and they you know,
they needed somebody and then you know, estimate to catch
and so I just wound up being Javonte who was
good at things, but not good enough at things, you
know what I mean, Like he could pass Bro, you
could catch the ball.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
I just couldn't, you know, see the cutback lane. Ever.
Speaker 3 (44:39):
He was just Yeah, he was the only guy who
wasn't a tendency tell and that's that's the problem.
Speaker 2 (44:45):
And hopefully JK. Dobbins fixes that, and hopefully R. J.
Harvey fixed that.
Speaker 1 (44:48):
Hopefully I will say, uh yeah, well yeah, it's reminded
me of I don't if you ever seen the movie
Snatch with Brad pittnellim and his guy Ritchie movie, Yeah,
when when they talk about parking the car and he's
like he wants to go to the one spot and
he moves and they're like why did you move?
Speaker 2 (45:04):
He's like it was too tight and it's like a
wide open street. He's like, you could park a jumbo jet.
Did then? Yeah, it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (45:11):
It reminds you of Javante looking at the cutback lane
the same way. You know, it's too tight in there, brother,
you could drive an ocean liner through that.
Speaker 2 (45:18):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (45:19):
It's an all time great movie. Yeah, you know, And
now Javonte is in that same Dallas team that I
was just talking about, So we'll see how it goes. Guys,
listening to Broncos Country night here on Kowa, I mayage
to snag our own Ryan Edwards for about twenty minutes.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
We'll get to that in the next hours. The PCT
here on Kawa
Zach Seker's back there, producing Rockies go down ten to two.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
The Boston Red Sox.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Rockies moved to twenty one and seventy one on the season,
Boston to forty eight forty five winning pitcher Brian Bellow,
who went the whole way, and losing pitcher Kyle Freeland,
who moves to one to ten on the season. Freeland
five point two innings pitched four hits, allowed three runs,
three earned, two walks, six strikeouts.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
The home runs allowed.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Onan mayhe up pitched a third of inning, allowed two hits,
a run it was earned. Jake Byrd came in for
a third of inning, gave a four hits, five runs, five.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Earned, and a walk. One of those was a home run.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Zach Agnells came on to finish things on one point
two innings, pitch one hit, one run, one earned, two strikeouts,
and allowed a home run as well. Rocky scoring all
done in the nineteen inning was a shoutout for the
bo Sox up until Van Haunter Goodman hits his seventeenth
home run in the ninth inning off Brian Bellow.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
It's a two run shot.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
That scored Tyler Freeman, who's been highly productive had the
ability to get on bas this year for the Rockies
five total hits. A Goodman account for two of those,
including the home run. Jordan Beck had a hit in
the ninth, Brenton Doyle had a hit, and Tyler Freeman
as well in one walk it was Brenton Doyle also.
(01:26):
The Red Sox had eleven hits walked three times, home
runs by Trevor Story and Jaron Duran, a triple by
Gonzales as well in there. The Rockies again, moving to
twenty one and seventy one on the season and still
(01:50):
well a pace for the worst record of all time.
It's just been a frustratingly tough season. Rockies play again
tomorrow night, same bat time, same bat channel, right here
on KOA. Antonio Senza tell it takes amount for the
Rockies three and twelve on the year, six point five
seven e RA against Lucas Scilito five and one with
(02:13):
a three six six ERA, and you can hear that
coverage starting right here on KOA. I believe pregame starts
at four point thirty tomorrow, So Rockies finishing up that
road stretch with the Boston Red Sox day they get
a day off, they got a three game stretch at Cincinnati,
(02:35):
and then you get the All Star break and they
come back and they get the Minnesota Twins and Say
Louis Cardinals at home. So not a whole lot of
respite in there for your your Colorado Rockies. You do
get up to go to Baltimore in Cleveland to end
the month, and maybe that'll yield some some wins as well,
(02:57):
but just another another miserable day at the ballpark for
the fifth in the nl West Colorado Rockies. The NVER
Nuggets are not going to be seeking a contract extension.
Excuse me, Dekla Jokic is not going to be seeking
a contract extension from the Nuggets this summer. He is
going to delay talks until next summer.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
That's according to ESPN.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yokic has three years remaining on a five year, two
hundred and seventy six million dollar contract extension he signed
in the summer of twenty twenty two. Three time MVP
has a player option in the final year of the
deal with sixty two point eight million that'll be in
twenty seven to twenty eight. Yokichi is eligible to sign
a three year, two hundred million dollar extension up to
up until October twentieth, the first year that extension would
(03:47):
have replaced his player option. By waiting until the twenty
twenty six season offseason to work on extension, the Nugget
Star is able to add a fourth year at additional
seventy seven million.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Josh Crocky said the team.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Will offer Jokich an extension this summer, but also understood
how it could benefit Yokich to sign one next summer instead. Jokic,
for his part, has remained silent. Krokey he told reporters recently,
we're definitely going to offer it. I'm not sure if
he's going to accept it or not, because we're also
going to explain every financial parameter around him signing now
(04:22):
versus later to be equally transparent. That's the way we
always are, and then he makes the best decision for
himself as family and will support him in it, you know.
It's obviously made many changes over the past few months
in the hopes of improving around Jokic, replacing head coach
Michael Malone with David Adelman, replaced general manager of Calvin
(04:43):
Booth with Ben Tenzer and John Wallace. In other titled
roles than general manager Tenser and Wallace turn around and
traded Michael Porter Junior for Brooklyn's Cameron Johnson. They agreed
to deal Dario Sarich to Sacramento for Jonas Valancius to
back up Yokich, who and he is still playing coy
on whether or not he's going to going to play
(05:06):
for the Nuggets. They brought back Bruce Brown, signed Tim
Harway Junior, and so will. It remains to be seen
if You'll catch waits to sign an extension next year
or decides to do one this year. The lots of
unus trade would provide yo Kitch with a legitimate backup
(05:28):
for the first time in years, but as of today,
it remains unclear if he'll actually suit up for the Nuggets.
He is under contract with Denver on the second year
of a three year, thirty point three million dollar deal.
He offered no insight today as to whether he intends
to honor that contract, and mid reports that he wants
to play elsewhere. Annis addressed the subject publicly for the
(05:49):
first time since the trade, granting an interview to local
media from the B eight basketball summit in his home
country of Lithuania. The interview was conducted Uanian, so the
nuances of its answer are slightly muddled in translation, but
the gist of it, per my use of Google Translate.
When he was asked if he would play for the
Nuggets the next season, would would say, and again this
(06:13):
is a Google translate of his quote, that we will
find out only when the first game is played. Everything
will be clear. So again the new language nuance, something
could be lost there, but that's that's the best I
could do with that interview. He was also asked about
his Nuggets obligations in terms of his availability to play
for Lithuitia's national team for the EuroBasket tournament. And here's
(06:35):
what he said about the trade that's not official yet,
And again Google translate here quote. Once the trade is done,
will make a plan. They'll express their wishes, how they think,
how they see it, medical examination, other details.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
It will depend on the team. So again Google Translate
translating his response.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Not exactly reassuring for Nuggets and fans hopeful that they'd
finally solve the long standing challenge of providing a solid
bout back up and saw.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
The backup minutes for Yokich.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
The hang up is his reported desire to play overseas. Reportedly,
there's mutual interests between between Jonas and joining Greek EuroLeague
team Panathinikos.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
I always murdered that name, so sorry.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
But his NBA contract gives the Nuggets exclusivity over his
basketball rights, so if he were to play basketball anywhere else,
it would require the Nuggets to release him from his contract.
According to ESPN, the Nuggets have no intention of doing so,
and the.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Plan in Denver is for him to his deal.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yokich played thirty six point seven minutes per game last season,
the most of his career by more than two minutes
per game. He did so because the Nuggets basically lacked
that effective backup option in the post and were drastically
worse when he was off the floor. As everyone saw,
Yokich faced two physical matchups in the post in a
pair of grueling seven game playoff series when he got
(08:01):
matched up against Clippers center Zubach and Thunder center As
a heartenstein and with no viable backup, his minutes increase
in the pro season from thirty six point seven to
forty point two minutes per game. Jonas Sis six eleven
two sixty five is a reliable physical presence in the
post who could give Yokic much needed relief in similar situations.
(08:25):
He was an impact player for the Kings and the
Wizards last season. He averaged ten point four points and
seven point seven boards and just eighteen point eight minutes
per game, and those are the exact kind of minutes
the Nuggets are seeking in relief of Yokich. But right
now it remains to be seen whether or not he
will actually suit up for the Nuggets. Zach, what do
(08:48):
you make of my decision to just shoot past the
fact that the Rockies are terrible and the bane of
my existence.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
I think it's a solid choice. I mean, I know
I'm in the same boat right now. I'd much rather
talk about the Nuggets and how excited I am for
their prospects next season, to at least they've put together
a competent team worthy of Nikola Yokich's prime to try
and chase another ring. It doesn't feel like they're cheaping
out right now, and I'm excited for it. I'm definitely
(09:16):
anxious about the Valentunist thing. As you were laying out there.
It's a very concerning situation, I hope, and based on
reports coming out about them being one of the finals
for al Horford.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I think this is the way it's trending.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
But I hope right now they're working on Horford in
the background, and if Horford's down, just signed Horford and
you know, do the free buy out with Valentunis to
free up the money necessary for it. I think that's
just so much more appealing at this point than you know,
bringing in a guy who very clearly doesn't want to
be here.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
It seems, yeah, And I wonder why.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I mean to me, I mean, I understand I've heard
things about him wanting to kind of go home, and
Greece isn't exactly next door to Lithuania, but it's at
least in the same time zone, you know, in greased
as much further south than Lithuini. But I mean, does
he just want more minutes? He doesn't want to be
the backup.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
He wants to go be the star starter somewhere. That
that's what I mean.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
He his numbers in limited minute eighteen point eight minutes
per game, getting ten point four and seven point seven
for a big man.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
That's not bad at all, and the money's better in
denver To it is weird.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I imagine some of it's being homesick, like you're laying out,
you know, even if it is further south, you know,
it's it's the distance between like here in Kansas City
or something.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
It's it's a super easy flight. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
But he, I mean, he played second fiddle to the Sabanas,
you know, for the Kings. I'm just wondering if he
wants a bigger bite of the pie, you know, like
if he feels like he's got the numbers and then
you know it'd be able to get out there and
play more minutes and doesn't want to sit behind Jokic
where he's going to be limited to, you know, ten
twelve minutes a game.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, he can chase the euro League Championship as probably
the number one option or at least something pretty close
to it. That Pantonacos I probably put you their name there.
They're stacked with former NB recently removed from the NBA guy.
So you know, maybe being the star on a team
chasing a euro championship seems more appealing to him at
(11:11):
this point than chase being you know, the sixth seventh
eighth man on NBA championship team. That seems like a
funky priority set to me. But maybe that's just where
he's at in his career at this point.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah, it's it's something to keep our eye on as
we go here. I would love for him to play here,
but as it sits, I lean towards he probably winds
up going to Greece since the Nuggets find another option.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
We'll see how that goes.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Five six, sixth nine zero is the text line here
to talk about what you guys want to talk about.
We had a couple of a couple of good texts
come in that if two thousand and three Detroit Tigers
had twenty five wins through ninety two games, that is
more than the Nuggets, half as four more wins to
the Nuggets half I mean the Nuggets the Rockies, like, yeah,
(12:01):
they're so bad.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I can't even under their name. It's it's terrible.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
They've got a couple of wins though, and it knocked
them off.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Their historic on their backs.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
We're back, oh seventy one, we're up back worse than
the White Sox last year, So like one hundred and
sixty two game record is still within play. But you know,
the worst since eighteen ninety six.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Stuff, or worse since nineteen oh four. Stuff. It seems
like that at least as the fate they've avoided for now.
You know, they got to keep winning.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
But it's uh man, it's been a really rough season
for the Rocks.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, and it's just tough too. It's tough to continue
to you know, to do it day in and day out.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
And you know it's gonna be tough to play for
that too. I mean, imagine being in the middle of
that series and you know, being in the middle of
a series and just like, we're just not We're not
even competitive, you know, we're not We're not anywhere.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Close to competitive. What are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
And how tough it can be to to that the uh,
you know, three Tigers finished what forty seven and one fourteen?
I think if I remember correctly, I could be off
on that double somebody double check me, but I think
I'm right on that.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
I think I remember that you had uh what was
that the Orioles and.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Was it twenty eighteen had one hundred and fifteen losses
if I remember correctly, Just trying to think of like
modern era teams that were supremely bad forty three and
one nineteen Uh. In two thousand and three for the Rockies,
I mean for the Tigers, just just brutally bad.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Last year's White Sox team forty one and one twenty one?
Can the Can the Rockies get to forty two wins
and eclips last year's I mean, you have to double
your win total.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
They have to pick up the pace of a lot
down the stretch.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Yeah, And I don't feel great about that, especially if
they sell some pieces at the trade deadline whatever, because
there's a chance they move, you know, at Tyler Freeman
or at Jake Bird. And if you do that, I
don't know how your winning pace is going to take
a step up. It's just it's going to be really,
really tough to do. Looking at you know, the all
(14:11):
time records.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Twenty one, thirty four for the the Cleveland Spiders.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
The fewest wins by a modern era team since nineteen
oh one is thirty six. I'm not sure if they'll
hit thirty six. And then that was a team that
only played one hundred and fifty three games. Right Philadelphia
Athletics in nineteen sixteen and the Boston Braves in nineteen
thirty five played one hundred and fifty three games and
they had thirty six and thirty eight wins respectively.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Yeah, I don't know if they'll hit those marks the
modern one hundred and sixty two game season.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
I mean, the Mets were forty one twenty back in
sixty two. But the modern one is the White Sox
last year forty one and one twenty one.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
And I don't think they're going to get there.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
You'd see, you'd have to double your win total and
you know, and they don't have. I mean, you almost
have to go five hundred the rest of the way
pretty close to it.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Yeah, I think they Yeah, I think they end up
like thirty five wins. If I had to put a
number on it, probably right around thirty five.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
That is.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Brutally bad.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Now, their schedule has been incredibly difficult on the front end. Yeah,
it should be a little easier on the back end.
Maybe that helps for something, but it, you know, talking
out of both sides of my mouth here, it should
remain to be fairly difficult because every single other member
of their division has a winning record except maybe the Diamondbacks,
who if they are under five hundred, it's only by
(15:30):
a game or two.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah, The current standings.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
In the UH In the NL West, as I switched
tabs here, I had it open. The Diamondbacks are one
game under at forty five and forty six the rest
of the division as a winning record.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
And by a bit. The Padres are the next worst
team in. There are six games over five hundred.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Yeah, the pottery is really six and a half games
lead on the in the West, the Padres. The Giants
are not that far behind the Dodgers. You know, five
and a ha, sixt and gayff games at this point
in the season is not much. Arizona ten games out.
It's a little a little rich, but the Rockies are.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Only thirty four and a half games back at this point,
mathematically still in it. Yeah, time to get some angels
in the outfit.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
They're gonna get They're gonna get eliminated in July. Like
that's gonna be a thing. You're gonna be eliminated from
the playoffs in July. Let's I don't even know what to.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Do with that. I just don't.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
I don't mean to harp on it, but it's so
comically bad that I don't.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
I don't know what to do with it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I'm actually gonna get out to a Rockies game here
next home stretch the Twins. When the Twins are in town,
I'm I go out to think that's Sunday and go
out to That'll be my first Rockies game of the year.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
I haven't made it out there yet.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I want to, but because I've been doing some of
the games and then I'm also here so many nights,
I just I haven't made it out for one, but
I would love to. That's the one problems. Like the
ballpark is still really fun to go to. Yeah, I
don't put any I'm excited to go to a game
at some point this season.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I put. I have no expectations for them to win.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
Like if I go to a Broncos game with my
girlfriend or something, I'm like, man, it would this will
be a lot less fun if they get smoked or
if they lose. You know, I definitely want them to
win to maximize my experience rock going to a Rockies game.
I expect them to lose by ten runs and I'm
just there for you know, having having a fun time outside.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Well for me, so uh, Broncos training camp starts July
twenty fifth, and so for me, I'm like, well, if
I don't get out there. I'm going to take like
a four day weekend, I think that weekend before that,
that week leading up to it, and that's what that's
my dempress because once training camp starts, we work, you know,
we work six days a week around here.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
We've got to be locked in from there.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Yeah, bean, what January till January or you know, maybe
figure if they can figure, say, I'm just put it
out there.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
If you don't like it, set it right back.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
But so this is the only opportunity I'm gonna have
to go all year, and so I'm just packing that weekend.
I'm gonna go see Rick Lewis in his show the nineteenth.
I'm gonna, you know, go out to get out to
the Twins game on the twentieth. Just try to have
me a fun, you know, relaxing weekend where I get
to do some stuff around town and then you know,
hit up training camp.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Training camps a couple of weeks away. It is just
a couple of weeks away. I can't wait for it.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'm hoping I'm gonna go as many days as I'm
elysically free, Yeah to go.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
It's it's just one of those like every year, the
gap time gets short now. It was shorter this year
because they were in the playoffs, which they had been
a quite some time, but they're there. You know, every year,
it just feels like the downtime in between U season
feels shorter and shorter.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Well, the NFL's spent so much smarter about that. They're
capitalistic about that through compared to the NBA. You know,
the NBA Finals just ended and it's like boom, there's
the draft, Boom, there's NBA Summer League action happening. The NFL,
you know, to its credit, has known how to stretch
these things out, so you get a month of pre
free agency pipe and then a month of free agency,
(19:00):
and then a month of pre draft type, and then
a couple of weeks of post draft reaction and then
you got ota. They've done such a good job of
budgeting all their events throughout the offseason to kind of
piecemeal us through with some news items. This is one
of the few dead periods we have that we're experiencing
right now.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Yeah, and that's I mean, you know, the NFL also
knows how to let it breathe, you know, give a
touch so that it creates conversation.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Around around its events.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
But yeah, it's just one of those things like we're
gonna be We got training camps starting what July twenty Friday,
July twenty fifth, at ten am, Broncos training camp kicks off.
You got your first joint practice will be Thursday, August fourteenth.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
That's with the Arizona Cardinals. We got that preseason game
right around. It's just it's it's just coming in quick
and it's coming up. It's coming up fast.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Is there any particular, like any particular game you're more
looking forward to this year the Broncos are playing.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Man, I have a pretty good grip on the regular
season schedule. I don't think I know who they're playing
in the pre season at all.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
I'm being honest. I know the Cardinals, Cardinals, Saints, and
the Niners.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
The Niners still play August ninth. Okay, that's the first one.
Then they get the uh and that's at San Francisco.
And the only home preseason game we get is Arizona
and then the get away game in New Orleans, and
then the season starts with Tennessee here on September seventh.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I think I'm most excited to see the running backs.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
You know, I think running back is something that's so
hard to scout in these training camp practices or OTA
practices the media is allowed into just because the contacts
paired down so much. The linemen aren't really blocking, you know,
there isn't real tackle, and it's so hard to get
a read on what's really going on. But I think
in the preseason you can also just because it's one
(20:44):
of the more simple NFL positions, I think you can
get a read on it much quicker than you can
on on others.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yeah, and that's that's one of those things I think
we're all looking forward to because I think there's there's
a lot of speculation out there.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
I will say this though, and we'll get into this
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
I recorded a segment with Ryan Edward's earlier today.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
We'll get to that in the in the next hour.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
But I don't think anybody has their pulse on how
this running back room is going to shake out, because
if you go back and you look at what Sean
Bayton has done historically, it's a true rotation. Like the
viability in terms of fantasy football really only came about
for Alan Kamara.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
You saw rotations that.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Had you know, Latavious Murray and Pierre Thomas and Mark
Gangram and then sprinkling of darren Sprolls and some of
the Reggie Bush and you.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Know, all that kind of stuff. It It really has
been a true rotation.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
And so I think people that are guessing or guestimating
out there about this kind of stuff, but lead backs
and all that.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
JK.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Dobbins probably early in the season, just by virtue of
being a veteran, will probably get a few a few
more opportunities. But I suspect at the end of the year,
you're probably looking at a three, maybe even a four
headed rushing attack that has a fairly even distribution of
touches and targets.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Now, when you say.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Three or four headed, do you think bone Nicks is
a large part of that formula? He was kind of
early last season and I wasn't sure if the decrease
was the coaching staff having to change a feeling or
Bonnicks getting beat up there, But the.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Decrease was he fractured his back.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Like you know, I think I think they want to
have him run less if at all possible early in
the season. You'll get early in games, you know, you
get my carrier two just to make defenses play it, honest,
But I think the idea is to not have him
putting his body on the line as much so that
we don't have situations last year like the Raiders game,
(22:41):
where you know, you get a fracture back and you're
playing with that down the stretch. You had the miserable
couple of couple of games. I think they're throwing the
football because of it. It wasn't quite wasn't quite the same,
So you know, I think I think in that scenario,
I think probably bo I'm not including him in that
(23:01):
foreheaded attack. He'll he'll get his in terms of they
will use him to get some carries and do some things.
But I don't believe that bo Nix is rushing is
a feature. I think that's a bonus in a lot
of areas. I don't think that's something that they are
(23:22):
I don't think they're they're counting on that in that
regard five six, six nine zeros of text line, Ben,
are you excited for the Nuggets to get bounced in
the second round again?
Speaker 2 (23:32):
I hope not. I certainly hope that's not the case.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
I think this is a much better team than what
we've seen the last two seasons and the last two
to the team. Each of these last two seasons was
one fourth quarter choke away in both series from not
going out in the second round and maybe winning the
whole thing. You know, if the note Son get knocked
out by the Tea Wolves, I think they're probably playing
in the NBA Finals against the Celtics. Maybe the Celtics
win that series, but Nuggets would have been right there,
(23:57):
and if they beat the Thunder, I think they would
have won the title this year.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I so too.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I think if they beat the Thunder, they would have
been in it, you know, against against Indianimals. C Well,
five six, six nine zero is the text line seven
two ohs? Is Major League Baseball force Rockies ownership change?
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Sort of?
Speaker 1 (24:21):
No, they're not going to the Rockies are incredibly profitable
franchise just because they're not winning. You know, I don't
think the problem. I do think part of the problem
is ownership. I don't think the problem is totally ownership,
because if you look at the two components of being
an owner, right, the one is the product on the field,
and then two is the experience. Right, you look at
(24:44):
the Penners they've they've tried to upgrade the product on
the field. They're probably going to you know, ultimately build
a new stadium all that kind of stuff, and the
product on the field's gotten better, right, So they're winning
on both ends. The Momfords, big momfforts created a great experience.
The ballpark is fun, the area downtown is fun.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
There's a reason people keep going out to that stadium
and keep paying it.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Because it's a good experience.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
He's you know, he's created a fun fan experience.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
So in that aspect, I would say that he's he's
a good owner. Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Then you look at the other side of that, and
that's the product on the field, which at this point
we all know is miserable. And that's the part where
he needs to clean house on the baseball side of things,
and you know, and go in a different direction. And
this whole shuffle of the deck chairs and loyalty and
Rockies culture and all that kind of stuff for great sound.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Bites, uh, to you know, to people who don't know better.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
But as you've watched this product, you see there is
a fundamentally functionally incorrect thing going on withinside this organization
on the baseball side of things. And you know, I've
I've said many times, why don't you go to Japan
again to Deecki Kurayama, one of the one of the
best baseball minds of all time, who's a free agent
right now.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
He's gotten up managing and everything.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Bring him in as a consultant, have him look the
organization over top to bottom and restructure the Rocky's organism
so that you know, you get in the best baseball
people in there.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
And I think that's that's the thing that needs to change.
I don't know that.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
You know, if if Dick Momford, who's you know, has
promoted his son Walker to you know, to kind of
run things start next year.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I guess we'll see how that goes.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
But if the baseball side of things doesn't change, it
doesn't matter. You could play musical chairs with ownership. But
at the baseball side of things doesn't change. Other than
that they've been a good he's been a good owner.
They've been willing to spend. They've spent on guys. They's
been on the wrong guys, but they spent and they've
created a fun atmosphere for people to go out and
joy games.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
And I would suggest that in those things.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I can't fault him as an owner because he's doing
that part of it. It's the baseball people he's entrusted
that are letting us all down.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Yeah, hopefully they can uh turn over some some new
leads there.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
They might need to turn over a whole forced at
this rate, let's get to an NFL six pack.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
It's time for the NFL sixth pad. I'm going to
insight and insight information you can't fine anywhere else the
top six headlines.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
What In ESPN's league sourced position rankings, Zach Allen failed
to make the top ten defensive tackle list, but was
included as an honorable mention. I have the list handy
in case you want to refer to it. How high
do you think zach Allen should have been rapped? Well,
I guess it depends because we talk it even our
odd front.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I mean, the position is different.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
If you're talking about a forty three end versus thirty four,
those are different.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Positions they're talking.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
They lumped thirty four ends with four or three defensive
tackles interior defensive line right.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Well, if they did that, then I would suggest he
belongs in the top ten at the position.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
He certainly one of the most productive.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Who did they have ranked ahead of it.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
The top ten list? This is per This is Jeremy
Fowler's annual thing. You know, writes it from lead sources
all throughout. Dexter Lawrence at one, Chris Jones at two, right,
Jalen Carter at three, Yeah, Jeffrey Simmons is at four, Yeah,
Quinnin Williams at five, Yeah, Leonard Williams at six, Madubiku,
(28:07):
I'm deep madubk Yeah, to Forrest Buckner at eight, Videvea
at nine, Yeah, as a nose, Cam Hayward at ten, Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Ali belongs that list. I don't know if I'm putting
some of those names ahead of him. I probably have
at seventh. I think on that list there's some some
names I would have changed the order a little bit.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
But you know, I don't think it's It's.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Not like an egregious snub, but it's one of those
things like, come on, man.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
This guy, look, what does he gotta do.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
He's just because he's hyper productive, but he's on a
good defense. You're you're you know, you get it to
the other guys who like, what who's the tenth name
in the list again, is it Cam Jordan, Cam Hayward,
Cam Hayward.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I'm sorry, why is Cam Hayward still on the list?
At this point?
Speaker 3 (28:45):
I was seeing the same thing with Vidavea, Like he
was great during Tampa's Super Bowl run. He's single handedly
was making them an elite run defense.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
He's a great nose, but he's not really like a
forty three defensive tackle.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
He's a nose town he's a zero. Yeah, and he's
just he hasn't played the same pick. He hasn't been
the same with presence.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Well true, but I mean he doesn't even he does
not play the same position that Zach Allen plays.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Like Zach Allen's like a five tech and vietave is
a zero. Like comparing them is weird to begin with.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Two Next up here, ESPN's Bill barnwell More rankings ranked
the Denver Broncos weapons as the league's well twenty third
best cast of weapons, never ranked thirtieth and last year's
rankings and twenty fourth two years of years ago. Do
you think that ranking feels right for Denver in that
twenty three range? And is this Denver's best supporting cast
(29:35):
of weapons during the Sean paydon era.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I'm assuming this is offense weapons.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yes, running back, wide receiver, tight end. I mean the
tight end room is still sort of a question mark.
You know, Evan Ingram is technically listed as a tight
end a receiver outside of sudden like you're hoping that
Vele and Mims and Pat Bryant becomes something, but you
don't you don't really know running back room.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Again question marks. What is JK.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Dobbins gonna be? Like here r J. Harvey drafted him.
Can McLoughlin or arrestimate.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Be that third guy? I mean that this is fair
to me.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I think they're gonna surprise people, and you know, I
think that they're better than people.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Think the same thing last year.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
When when I said this defense was gonna be one
of the top defenses in the league, and I was
I got scoffed at, you know, and then come to
find out they're like they got rid of their best
player in Justin Simmons, and I was like, Okay, but
they're gonna be a better def The're gonna be a
better unit overall this year, and they were, you know,
I don't know. I mean a lot of this depends
on what bo Nix is in year two? Do we
(30:44):
experience a sophomore slump?
Speaker 2 (30:45):
Is there?
Speaker 1 (30:45):
You know, with the league catches up to him in
terms of tape and how he adjusted to that and
you know it was it a one trick pony or
is this is he the real deal? And we're going
to find that out. I think the supporting cast is fine.
I don't think you I mean, I guess you could
ask for more, but what do you really asking for there?
You've got a couple of sureheaded pass catchers, you've got
a couple of speedy guys, you've got a slot tided
(31:08):
mismatch in Angram, and you've got a stable of running backs.
I don't I don't think it's bad. I just think
there's a lot of unknown I'd.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Agree a couple surprises here in the rankings. Looking a
little closer, the Steelers ranked just ahead of the Broncos
at twenty one, which he's solely on DK Metcalf. Yeah,
that's the thing, it's DK J J. Smith is Pat Fryarmouth,
But that's might be there. John Who there? Who's the
other running back after Jalen Morn? Didn't they draft Johnson?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Johnson? I mean, maybe there's a lot of unknown there too.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
Yeah, I'd prefer the Broncos cast, but maybe that's some
orange titted glasses. And then I was surprised to see
the Broncos ranked ahead of the Chicago Bears and ahead
of the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Yeah, that's weird because.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
James Cook, like Kleil Shakiir, is in a superstar, but
he's a pretty good number one option.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
I think they've got a pretty receiving corps.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Yeah, a couple of nice tight ends, and that James
Cook is a border not maybe elite, but just bordering
good running back. That's yeah, that's a little weird that
the Bears they got plenty of weapons.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Yeah, that's weird. That's a I don't know, what do
I know?
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Three in Netflix's Quarterback series, which just dropped.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Have you happened to watch it? Yeah? I got through
about twenty minutes so far.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
It was a matter of fact, the game was a
little faster than I thought it was going to so
I didn't get a chance to get all the way through.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
So not out of boredom.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
It wasn't like you turned it off after twenty No, no, no,
I just time is what it Is Well in the
series Kirk Cousins spoiler alert, I guess he said that
he felt misled by the Atlanta Falcons after they selected
Michael Pennox and said he might have just stayed in
Minnesota had he known Atlanta would draft Penis. Talked about
how much he loved Minnesota and how there really wasn't
any reason for him to leave outside of trying to
(32:51):
avoid being stuck behind a rookie quarterback. Where do you
think Cousins would have landed if he knew Atlanta planned
on taking a quarterback in the top ten? And do
you think Atlanta treated Cousins unfairly?
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Well? I think he would have stated in Minnesota. I
Kirk Cousins telling the truth.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
The whole reason, the impetus behind leaving Minnesota was that
he knew they were drafting a quarterback, and you know,
he didn't want to be the guy who was, you know,
sitting behind some rookie, you know, as the pressure mouse
to get them in, because that's what happens right.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
In Atlanta.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
From everybody that I know, did not reveal their their
Michael Pennock's plans to tell that, not even to Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
But not to anybody until the day of the draft.
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
I don't think they treated him unfairly, but if they,
they may have misled him.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
You know, Hey, you're gonna come in here and be
the guy.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
The other part of that was Kirk was never healthy
from his He was not healthy. He was never healthy
from his from his previous injury. And I think Kirk
Cousins will be better this year. I don't know about
Michael Pennix. I saw, if you you know, we saw
enough last year where I'm like, that's a big question mark.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
I don't know. We didn't see an We didn't see
anything that said, oh, this is the guy, and see
they'll say he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (34:01):
But it was just kind of like, well, oh, Drew
Locke's debut season in like twenty nineteen, he had that
like four or five game edition where it's like there's
some high heights been there and nice, there were some
nice there were better games from Drew in that five
game stretch, and there were text next yeater.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
Yeah, Penis didn't have a tough you know, but I mean.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
That Texans defense that year was eleven reasonably placed road
cones out there.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I mean they were terrible. Look, I get where Kirk
Cousins is coming from. They probably lured him in.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
With, hey, you're going to be the guy while having
this other plan, and he was leaving a situation so
that he just didn't incur that situation. I think if
both parties had been completely honest with each other, and
that's not to say Cousins wasn't, but Atlanta should have been.
If if Atlanta had been honest with him, who knows
if he'd gone there or not. And I think that's
part of the problem. So maybe they did lure him
in under false pretense. Whatever the case is.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
He's there now, he's collecting the checks, but I'm sure
he'd like to be playing.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Now to what you said about Minnesota, him maybe staying
in Minnesota, if Atlanta was upfront with him in that reality,
do you think minute so it still takes J. J.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
McCarthy's and I think it makes it easier to take
him because you know, you've got a bridge quarterback and
Kirk Cousins and the JJ McCarthy would be the guy,
would start to be the guy this year.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
Maybe it wouldn't have even benefit last year.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
And if that happens, Sam Donald probably doesn't go to
the Vikings. He probably goes to the Broncos, right, they.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Were the runner up.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
If they were the runner up on that and so
that would have been Sam Donald and bow Knicks here
instead of Jared Stidham and Bo Nicks.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
And then bow Knicks probably doesn't have to start the
season in that reality because Sam Donald would in theory
be able to put up a better fight than who.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Knows if Sam had gone on the heater like you
did last year and where that would have landed him
and all that kind of stuff. He's just a lot
of what ifs there in terms of that series of dominoes.
But yeah, Sam Donald would have would have been the
guy here.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
It's a pretty fascinating butterfly. Yeah, and now Samson Seattle,
I don't think that's going to go well. That offensive line,
and I just still think that coaching staff is going
to go well.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
They already fired their first time offensive coordinator that was terrible.
They're throwing them a sixty times a game last year
and I'm not sure they got any better. So maybe
Clink Kubiak can recapture that Week one in two matchic. Yeah,
I we'll see yah the two games with you know
him and Derek carrre light in the world on fire
for a.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
Minute there or.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
At his summer football camp, Dak Prescott told the media
that he was fully healthy and would.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Be a full go for training camp this summer.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
What are your expectations for Dak Prescott in twenty twenty
five and specifically, do you think he'll be closer to
the twenty twenty three version of himself that finished runner
up in the MVP race or the twenty twenty four
version that threw a lot of interceptions and was plagued
by injuries.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
I think he's gonna be good. I think Dallas is
gonna be good this year.
Speaker 1 (36:37):
Defense, they're gonna have to figure some things out, but
on the offensive side of the ball.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Think Dallas could be good this year. I genuinely do.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
And I think Dak Prescott, if he's healthy, will have
a big year.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
A little bit of question about the run game there
in Dallas, but they plan on being a.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
Run first football team, a power run football team, and
then throwing ball off of that power run game, and
so it's gonna be It's gonna be interesting, you know,
Brian Schottenheimer.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
They they kind of clown that higher when it was made.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
But I mean, I think Dallas Hi Dallas could be
the second best team in that division this year. I
think Washington's gonna come back to hurt a little bit
this year, and I think Hi Dallas could could.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Move up in a second in that division.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Schodneimer gives me some of the like Dan Campbell or
Nick Sirianni vibes in the sense that it's the higher
that everyone's clowning in the off season beforehand, and then
it winds up kind of panning out. Also a guy
that's maybe a better He had a I forget if
it was that the owners meet probably wouldn't have been
the owners meetings, but it was some off season event,
and he had a great quote about all the stuff
about head coaching he learned from his dad, and the
(37:42):
different skills between head coaching and offensive coordinating. And he
looks like the type of guy that could be a
much better head coach than he was a coordinator.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
That's the same thing I said when he was higher.
Brian's got a better skill set for the head coach.
He's more of a CEO than he is like a
you know, an offensive coordinator than an Ex's and o's guy.
He's he relates to players, he relates, you know, he
sees one.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Of those kind of guys. I think he's better suited
in that role.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
The guy that brought into b THEOC, you know, comes
from the offensive line background. They're gonna want to power
on the ball. Fine, man, I just think people are
sleeping on Dallas a little bit this year. Now with
Zach Martin out the door and you know that new
caster running backs. Do you think they'll be able to
establish that identity.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I think they're gonna try.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
If I can't, then you're gonna have Dac back there,
dropping back doing sixty times a game.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
But I think they're gonna try and and run the
ball and be effective doing that. George Pecktt Pickens is
definitely hoping for the format of this.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
Well, yeah, you got picking ceedee Lamb out there, and
it's gonna be interesting because those guys have coNP bentary
skill sets, so I can't. I that is just a
sneaking feeling that Dallas is gonna be a lot better
than people think this year.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Five hard Knocks.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
Speaking of the NFC East Hard Knocks, is set to
spend training camp with the Buffalo Bills and the regular
season with the NFC East. Which edition of the show
are you more excited for between those two and do
you think we will ever see.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
An offseason Hard Knocks again or did Shane ruined that
for us?
Speaker 1 (39:02):
I mean Hard Knocks has gotten progressively worse as the
year's going on. I'm more interested in seeing the East
just because it's a variety of different things.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
It's so like when it first came out, it kind.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Of did give you a little bit of glimpse of things,
but it's so sanitized now that you just thought you're
not really getting you know, what it was originally and
recapturing that. Because we're so star for football content, we'll
watch it. But yeah, I mean the NFC East, there's
so many Joe, Shane and then will be back there
fighting for their lives. Now all of a sudden, everybody
(39:35):
recognizes that dan Quinn's a good coach and they got
a great quarterback, and all of a sudden, all those
people that were crapping on dan Quinn or eating their words,
You've got the Eagles with the Super Bowl champions, and
then you've got this thing in Dallas. That's got people
with an eyebrow raising and see, he's just gonna be entertaining.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
I didn't even think about that angle with.
Speaker 3 (39:50):
The Hard Knocks crew coming back into the Shiant's facility
that you got. I have to imagine that'll be very
awkward and uncomfortable for all parties involved. And to your point, yes,
it used to be a great show. And then to
try and get teams to do it. The NFL they
answer to that rule where they can force teams to
do it, but teams now get final cut and it
really sanitized and watered the whole thing down here.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Yeah, lot, And so that's that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
You're really not getting a lot of that that sort
of stuff that that people want out of that show.
And so I'll watch a little bit of it here there.
If there's something interesting, I might go back and rewatch it.
You know, I've Hard Knocks has never been appointment viewing
for me, not in the last I don't know, eight
or nine years.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
I'm surprised they went with the bills too. I guess
the bills volunteered, but I think they got volunteered.
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Oh well, weird that they get told I know, I
know Josh Allen is like the big star, but there's
not a lot of off season storylines with the Bills
where I'm like, I'm super curious or the Dermott's put.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
His foot in his mouth on a few quotes here there.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
You remember he had that thing where he compared compared
their next game to what was it the coordination of
the hijackers on nine to eleven or whatever, and yeah,
like like.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
Overcoming long odds, he tried to teamwork. Yes, hid the
nine to eleven hijackers or what.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
Yeah, he put himself in hot water on that. But
I I just look, I mean, and I think Sean
mcdermot's could coach. But they're up against it too, because
you're talking about the John Fox effect. Right, Have we
reached the ceiling of where this team can be? Do
we need to bring somebody in to get them over
the finish line? And that's that's where they're at with it.
This is Sean McDermott's make or break year up there
in Buffalo. There's a couple of coaches like that. In fact,
(41:23):
the AFC East has got that with Mike McDaniel down
there in Miami.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
Sean McDermott is on that. Uh.
Speaker 1 (41:30):
There's a couple of coaches around the league with with
UH with kind of the the eyeball, Mike Tomlin, you know,
you gotta win, you gotta win a playoff game. They're
not gonna fire him early, but they won't renew his
contracts if he's if he's out there not.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
Not winning again.
Speaker 3 (41:41):
And the last coach in the East, even Mike Frable,
I feel I had some pressure on him. Drud Mayo's
the one and done nothing to be fired, but you're
now expected to come in and look a lot better
than the guy who.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Was a disaster. True, but Mayo was always a one
and done. They had that in his contract.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
They weren't expecting him that to happen all that quickly,
and it was seen his contract guaranteed. They wanted to
hire Vrable last year and they couldn't legally because the
Drod mail thing. So you know, Zach Taylor in cincinnati's
another one where you're like, okay, like you gotta figure
this out, and he's got no defense.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
So that's gonna be a that's gonna be fascinating to
watch too. Six Maurice Jones Drew ranks R J.
Speaker 3 (42:18):
Harvey as the Broncos best running back and as the
twenty fourth best starting running back in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (42:24):
What do you make of that ranking and which running
back in.
Speaker 3 (42:27):
The Denver Broncos backfield do you think ultimately finishes the
regular season with the most touches. I think we agree
it'll be a split backfield, but who gets the largest workload?
Speaker 2 (42:36):
First of all? M JD gets.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
Laughed at for a lot of his running back opinions
and then they usually pan out. So I'm just gonna
I'm just gonna tell you now, m J D. He
knows a thing or so about playing a position. He
played it himself.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
He's huge on r J. Harvey pre draft. Yeah he was.
He's marsh Jones.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Drew knows the running back position and he's put out
some takes before where people be like, what are you
talking about? And then you know they usually wind up
coming true. In terms of the Broncos backfield, Dobbins probably,
if we're counting touches and targets like receptions and running
the ball, probably Dobbins, Although I think it's it's a
one ay if he's healthy.
Speaker 2 (43:12):
If he's not healthy, then it'll be RJ. Harvey and
then there'll.
Speaker 1 (43:15):
Be a huge drop in between Estma and McLaughlin back there,
and then you know, if one of those guys were
to go down, Baby Watson, whoever it is that.
Speaker 2 (43:25):
You know, becomes the fourth guy. I think that's probably
the safe bet. If r J. Harvey manages to.
Speaker 3 (43:33):
Get the lion's share of the touches in that backfield
or the Lion's share of that carries in that backfield,
I think that bodes incredibly well for the Denver Broncos offense.
Like if a time traveler from January of next year
came into the studio right now and told us RJ.
Harvey ends up being the most productive running back on
the team, not telling us where that line is, but
just that he was the most productive. I think that's
probably a pretty good sign for the offense, just because
(43:56):
Dobbins was the floor raizer of that room and RJ.
Speaker 2 (43:59):
Harvey's gonna more so determined the ceiling.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
Yeah, last year, I mean, Javonte had fifty two percent
of the snaps at running back last year. I think
it'll be in the next closest was McLoughlin with twenty
seven percent.
Speaker 2 (44:12):
I believe that it will. You'll wind up seeing a
more even split with those running backs this.
Speaker 3 (44:19):
Year, I would hope. So last year's running back room
was incredibly frustrating. It would hard to be much less
than that.
Speaker 1 (44:25):
He couldn't trust McLoughlin to pass pro and they you know,
they needed somebody and then you know, estimate to catch
and so I just wound up being Javonte who was
good at things, but not good enough at things, you
know what I mean, Like he could pass Bro, you
could catch the ball.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
I just couldn't, you know, see the cutback lane. Ever.
Speaker 3 (44:39):
He was just Yeah, he was the only guy who
wasn't a tendency tell and that's that's the problem.
Speaker 2 (44:45):
And hopefully JK. Dobbins fixes that, and hopefully R. J.
Harvey fixed that.
Speaker 1 (44:48):
Hopefully I will say, uh yeah, well yeah, it's reminded
me of I don't if you ever seen the movie
Snatch with Brad pittnellim and his guy Ritchie movie, Yeah,
when when they talk about parking the car and he's
like he wants to go to the one spot and
he moves and they're like why did you move?
Speaker 2 (45:04):
He's like it was too tight and it's like a
wide open street. He's like, you could park a jumbo jet.
Did then? Yeah, it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (45:11):
It reminds you of Javante looking at the cutback lane
the same way. You know, it's too tight in there, brother,
you could drive an ocean liner through that.
Speaker 2 (45:18):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (45:19):
It's an all time great movie. Yeah, you know, And
now Javonte is in that same Dallas team that I
was just talking about, So we'll see how it goes. Guys,
listening to Broncos Country night here on Kowa, I mayage
to snag our own Ryan Edwards for about twenty minutes.
Speaker 2 (45:33):
We'll get to that in the next hours. The PCT
