Speaker 3 (00:17):
In baseball, the Houston Astros are done, audios out of
the MLB playoffs. They have been swept by the Detroit
Tigers in the AL Wild Card round, a five to
two loss today, and both games happened in front of
their fans.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Fat faces in Houston.
Speaker 3 (00:33):

Speaker 4 (00:59):
That's a baseball rule Byron Murphy, not able to practice today,
still bothered with a pulled Hams trained to see the
Patriots signed today. Our guy who's a former Husky Jack
Westlf signing been placed on the practice.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
What about that?
Speaker 3 (01:11):
By the way, speaking of the Bucks and the Falcons,
on Thursday, Tampa Bay is going to be with that
wide receivers Trey Palmer and some guy named Jalen McMillan
will also not play in the game. DeVante Adams, apparently,
according to Schefty, has a wish list of trade partners.
The Jets and Saints are near the top. Eat more
of our guys.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
In the news today, Dave Simms named a finalists for
the Baseball Hall of Fame's twenty twenty five Ford Frick Award.

or is that just a youth.
Speaker 4 (02:03):

Speaker 2 (02:04):

Speaker 3 (02:06):

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Tonight the final preseason game of the year, the Boys.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
I'll go at seven o'clock, six thirty pre game the

Speaker 4 (02:25):
Ten go and now some goofy Waco out of touch.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Homers, just bree the radio, just forble.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
By forty one yards from Elliott Bay.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Can you feel it?
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Now?
Speaker 4 (02:40):
This is softy into I.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Think the question, azure, what's that? It's the question of
the day.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I'll have that. That sounds good. I'll take that.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Do we feel better or worse as Mariner fans because
the Astros got swept by the Tigers and their season
is over? Because don't forget, if the Mariners had tied
with Kansas City or beating Kansas City and taking that
third wild card, they would have played Baltimore in the
first round. Not the Tigers, obviously, But do we feel
better or worse? The same indifferent after watching the Astros
(03:14):
get swept by the Tigers today?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Do you give a damn?
Speaker 4 (03:16):
I don't really give a damn, honestly, that's the first answer.
But if to answer the question, I would say probably
a little worse because it just reminds us how just throw,
you know, throw numbers in a hat and pull one out.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
That the baseball playoffs so hard? Way, Yeah, that's a crapshoot, man, But.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I tell you I know who's feeling better today than
he was yesterday though. That's John Stanton seeing the twenty
sixth payroll in baseball, beating the Houston Astros and seeing
the what's Kansas City? The twentieth payroll in baseball? About
ready to beat the Baltimore Oils and advance in the
next round.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Now, if your goal is to win a wildcard round,
then great. Your goals to win a World Series title
then not so great.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
I guess we'll see who wins the World Series, right.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
And even if they do win the World Series, I
mean the odds say we've been down this road a
million damn times, And please for the love of God,
I hope you're not. I hope you're being sarcastic about
the John Stanton thing.
Speaker 5 (04:05):
Also, Baltimore is a lower payroll in case he does
right right.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
Yes, and then three of those four teams were in
the got the Mets, You've got the Braves, You've got
the Padres, you got the Yankees coming up their teams
that actually spend money, and the numbers show historically when
it comes to making the final four of baseball, which
is the ALCS and the NLCS, the more money you spend,
the better the odds are that you'll play in the
Final four with a shot to go to a World Series.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
So I don't want to hear it. I don't want
to hear it from anybody.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Don't you dare put those thoughts on John Stanton's head,
Dick Fame huh, Ricky, Bobby, Don't.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
You dare put that on me? Baby?
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Don't you dare allow our guys to wake up and
think like that. Well, that's not the truth, though, that's
the thing. Well, we've been over telling me. The truth
is what we have done. This research can handle the truth.
I want you to tell me what the truth is.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
According to you.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
We have done the research before. You and I have
broken down the numbers. You are correct, payroll gives you
a better chance to make the playoffs. However, to win
the World Series. There is not a direct correlation, because
it's just I mean, I.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Don't think that's true either, Dick Oh. I can go
back like forty years.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
I can go back like thirty years.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
And again you're talking about if we're gonna sit here
and say the baseball is a crap shoot. I want
a shot to play for a World series title, not
just a shot to make the playoffs. And the more
money you spend, the more shots you play, the more
bites at the apple you have when it comes to
being four wins away from a World series. Don't make
me do all the research again, because I will. I
will go home tonight and I will log onto my
(05:34):
web browser and I will pay for the internet, and
I will google the crap out of pay thee and
I will bring you the numbers that you seek.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Can two things be true?
Speaker 6 (05:43):
Nope?
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Only one true? Can the Mariners? Can there be a
need for the Mariners to spend more? And yet is
it is it fair? Can we all agree that the
Mariners don't have to be a top ten payroll team
in baseball to have a good chance to win the
World Series? Can both of those things coexist?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
A good chance? I want the best chance. I want
the best chance.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Okay, but you know you're never going to be a
top five payroll?
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Why not?
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Well, and if you don't have a top ten many payroll,
then you need an elite GM that actually gets the
most out of the player.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
I mean, why can't Why can't we have a top
five payroll? Why can't we have a top ten pay roll?
There's nothing in baseball that says the Mariners can't have the.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Top five, say top ten. I mean you're not. Let's Dave,
You're not going to no matter who the owner is
in Seattle. Huh, You're not gonna have a Mets, Yankees, Dodgers, Phillies.
What a payroll?
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (06:34):
What if Jeff Bezos buys the team? What if Steve
Bomber buys the team? What if Bill Gates buys the team? Look,
I know I'm.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Right.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Well I'm telling you that the reality is is that
that likely is never going to happen. The problem is
you have people that walk around with that mentality, and
they need to be reminded every single day.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Hey, baseball, lets you do.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Whatever you want to do. So what do you doing
being frugal? For God's sakes? Mike Florio joins us. Right now, it's.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Here he is the king of all NFL media, the
undisputed heavyweight champion of the NFL Press score from Pro
Football Talk, the NFL, and NBC our buddy Mike Florio,
how are you pal?
Speaker 9 (08:00):
Well? The good news is that Buff Hoole still gets
you a percentage discount that matches the percentage of the
rays that I got this year.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
So we have begun the process of firing Jackson Felts
to pay for your raise.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
And you may notice he's.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Not here, not here today for Jackson, it's a school.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
It's the mustache.
Speaker 9 (08:26):
I'd be twisting the end of.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
It right now.
Speaker 9 (08:28):
I love it, Hey, handlebar mustache handed bar. I knew
I was forgetting the name handlebar.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Muf Do the Raiders trade DeVante Adams And if so,
where does he go?
Speaker 9 (08:39):
Well? I think at this point it would be a
shock if he's not traded. I think the only way
he would stay, the only chance, and this is slim.
The Raiders would have to go on a here without
him because he's weaked the week with a hamstring injury,
which means he's not going to play for them until
they trade him. So he would have to decide that
his best option is to stay, and he's already decided
(09:01):
that's not his best option. So the question becomes where
does he go? And there was reporting earlier today from
Sheffy that he wants to go to the Jets of
the Saints, and that raises a separate question. Will the
Raiders accommodate him and trade him where he wants to go?
If not, would his team trade for him if he
doesn't want to be there. I think that's a mistake.
(09:23):
The Jets have always made the most sense. Although they
have a glut of receivers. You'd have to do something
with one of those guys Gret Wilson, Allens Are and
Mike Williams unless you just want to go four deep,
but they're already struggling to get the ball around in
that offense. I don't know that it makes sense for
the Jets, but the Jets are the one team that
kind of stands out right now. And the other thing
to remember too, you got enough cap space to absorb
(09:44):
his contract even if you restructure it the day he
walks through the door. I just confirmed that with a
GM who understands the rules better than I do, and
probably better than most people. If he walks through the
door with a cap number from his existing salary that
puts you over. That's no good. You can't just say
we're going to redo it and drop it and get
there by the close of business. He's got to be
(10:05):
within the cap. You've got to be within the cap
when he shows up, which means you got a clear
cap space elsewhere. If his salary would put you over,
that's just another thing to keep in mind. And then
there's the trade compensation, another and go and then I'll
shut up the possibility that the Raiders will pay some
of his base salary in order to make the deal
more enticing and to get more by way of compensation.
(10:27):
And we've seen that before you pay some money and
you get a higher draft pick, you're basically using the
situation to buy yourself better draft picks collateral in the future.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Is Antonio Pears liking an Instagram post about the trade
a nothing or does it show a little bit of
a maturity deficit with him? And also hurts the team
get value because the other team can just be like, well,
your coach doesn't want to he'sking Instagram posts about a trade.
Speaker 9 (10:56):
Well, first of all, if you've got multiple teams that
want him. It doesn't matter if the Raiders don't keeping
the guy. Threatening to keep the guy, Acting like you're
going to keep the guy becomes valuable if you've only
got one suitor. I don't know how much the Instagram
thing matters, because I think this the handwriting was already
on the wall in permanent ink. I went on Football
Night in America based upon the information that was available
(11:18):
to us on Sunday and said, hey, get ready for
the chatter that DeVante Adam's going to be traded by
the deadline, and lo and behold. By the next day
it started, and by yesterday, two days later, there was
a report he wants out. There's a report that the
Raiders want a package and includes the second round pick.
And now by today we know where he wants to go.
And you know, the question is when does a team
(11:41):
get this done? And I think if you're going to
trade for him, the sooner the better, because the sooner
he gets up to speed, the better off he's going
to be in helping you get to where you want
to go to get him. Ready to trade deadline for
a lot unless it's an identical offense to the one
he's been running, or one that he knows from his
time with the Packers, for example, which makes the Jets
(12:03):
more sensible. You got to get the guy up the
speed to get a return on him right away, especially
if you don't do an extension with him and you're
just running him for the rest of the year, because
next year his salary goes to thirty five point sixty
four million, So without a new contract, he's going to
get cut after the season by whoever employed.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Well, Mike Florio's with us and the Dolphins started with Tua.
Skyler Thompson came in, he's out, Huntley's in. We're watching
two on the sideline. They're one and three. It's unraveling.
They've scored twenty five points combined in three games, by
the way the Dolphins have and they got.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Some winnable games.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I guess coming up Patriots, Colts Arizona is too a
close to even coming back.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
What's the latest on that.
Speaker 9 (12:45):
The Arizona game is the earliest when he could come
back after he suffered that concussion. It was only two
weeks and.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
Six days ago.
Speaker 9 (12:52):
It's amazing how much the NFL changes in a short
period of time. It feels a lot longer in the
past that that concussion half. They put him on injured reserve,
mainly to take timelines out of the equation. You don't
want to have urgency, that magnet that draws him back
to the field, that tries to get him, and the
doctors eating the independent doctors. The idea of Hey, the
(13:13):
idea is, we want guys who are going to play football.
Let's check the boxes, let's put the guy back on
the field. But the problem is is the Dolphins struggle.
There's this simmering, almost boiling sense of we need to
go back. When's the earliest he can come back. You've
got some breathols reporting out there that he's got no symptoms,
he's on track to return, we date, But what's he
(13:36):
coming back to. He's coming back to a sport where
the risk of another concussion is right in the middle
of the radar screen. It's not some vague looke possibility.
The deamorw Hamlin injury from early twenty twenty three was
a fluke, a freak occurrence. Concussions aren't. They're right within
the boundaries of the risks you assume when you play football.
(13:58):
So I was kind of hope thing. Now. Look, I'm
not going to say he should retire. I was hoping
that he wouldn't play again this year and make a
good decision detached from the urgency to get back and
help and the way things are going for the Dolphins,
I feel like the urgency is going to cloud his
judgment and make him do something. Maybe he shouldn't do that,
Maybe isn't in his long term best interest.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
That makes any sense, Yeah, the Mike. The Seahawks continue
to creep ever so slowly up your power rankings. You
now have them in the top half of the NFL
at sixteenth year.
Speaker 9 (14:31):
Move them up even though they lost.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yes, they're not They're not high enough. They're not moving
them up even though they lost. You don't know what
you're doing. They're not high enough.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Yeah that what's your thought of their fight? Without their
basically entire defense against the game?
Speaker 9 (14:47):
I was impressed by Geno Smith. I was impressed by
the offense. The Lions are no slous. You know, the
Seahawks have a good recent history against the Lions. They
gave him everything they could handle. I was very disappointed
in the NFL's replay function because two point conversion where
DK caught the ball and got his knee down should
have been automatically reviewed, full blown replay review, and it
(15:08):
should have been turned into a good two pointer. Then
what happens Think about the mindset. It's one thing for
the Lions to come out with the ball first and
tender on their own thirty up eight, Yeah, we can
be a little aggressive here. We're up eight. They got
to score a touchdown and a two pointer just to
tie us. If you're up six, maybe you're a little tighter,
maybe you're a little more careful. Maybe that drive is
(15:30):
in a lightning strike seventy yard catch and run by
Jamison Williams. And I think to what happened the day
before at lambeau Field. The Vikings up by the same
score twenty eight to fourteen. Packers score go for two
and get it. That's a very nerve wracking drive when
you're up six instead of eight. And so I think
(15:51):
the Seahawks got screwed by the NFL's failure in that regard.
And you got to go back to that same point
in the game and play it out and see how
it goes. But I think it would have been a
different vibe on the ensuing drive for the Lions, right
if they were up six instead of eight.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
So explain this again to me like I'm an idiot,
which I am, So it should be easy. So the
two point inversion is not reviewable, but it should be
in your opinion or it is, and they didn't look
at it the.
Speaker 9 (16:16):
Two point conversion. They added this to the rule book
a few years ago. Now, all scoring plays are subject
to automatic review without a challenge.
Speaker 10 (16:26):
If it's an incomplete path in the end zone, you
have to challenge. And I think that's where this might
have gotten twisted up by the people who are responsible
for this, because the rule book says all two point
tried are subject to automatic review, successful or unsuccessful. So
if that had been a touchdown that had not counted,
(16:47):
the Seahawks would have had.
Speaker 9 (16:48):
To challenge it. It wouldn't have been automatic review if
it had been a touchdown. It's automatic review on a
two point play, whatever the outcome, it's automatic review. So
the NFL dropped the ball on this. The Seahawks technically
couldn't have even challenged because it's automatic review. And I
thought somebody claimed that while they decided quickly that it
wasn't a catch. It's got to be clear and obvious
(17:10):
that the ruling on the field is correct before they
will turn around and just rubber stamp it without a
full blown review. There should have been a full blown review,
and as the rules analyst said on the game Monday night,
it should have been a good two point play.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Mike, does Aaron Rodgers respect Robert Salah? And if not,
how big of a problem is that for the Jets?
Speaker 9 (17:31):
Respect really isn't the word that comes to mind. Look,
we know Aaron Rodgers' history. He's the delicate genius around
whom you must tiptoe with things you say, with things
you do. In the book by you know O'Connor, Out
of the Darkness, The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers, there is
a chapter dedicated to what Rogers and those close to
(17:52):
him refer to as the island. If you piss him off,
you end up on the island. You're excommunicating family members,
immediate family members, family members who weren't apparently involved in
whatever it was that got him upset on the island.
Friends on the island, and Robert Sala. I think he
might have gotten himself in the hot water when he
suggested publicly after Sunday's game, and it had five fold
(18:14):
start penalties, that may be an issue with the Cadence.
Rogers said, there's no issue with the Cadence. Hold the
god's accountable for making mistakes. The next day there's Sala
standing up there with a mop and a bucket clean
up on Aisle five. Oh, it's not really the Cadence,
it's the operation. So I think that Sala has to to,
as I said earlier, tiptoe around the delicate genius because
(18:37):
if he pushes anything too far. The reality is Rogers
has the power. They gave him the power, and when
they accepted his gesture of a thirty five million dollar
pay cut, remember that last year after he was traded,
and it's it percolated for a while, what's gonna happen
with his contract? And he just gives up thirty five
million by accepting that, What do you do as a
(18:58):
Jets You give him? They he to the franchise, He
in charge, and yeah, I don't know that it's a
matter of respect. It's a matter of control. Rogers controls him,
and Rogers wants to control every relationship in his life.
And if he doesn't control it. He just cuts it off.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Mike Florio, great stuff, always a pleasure. We'll talk in
a week.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
See it.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
He's Mike, But Mike Florio, see you, Letterman joining us
on the radio show.
Speaker 9 (19:24):
But hold every week.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Courtesy is simply a Seattle fact or fiction brought to
you by the Emerald Queen. It's Wednesday, but Jackson's not here,
so you and Jackson are flip flopping. So Dick will
take the pick next on ninety three to three KJRFM
Live from the.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
R and R Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio. Now back to
Softie and Dick on your Home for the Huskies and
the Kraken Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ R FM.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
I want you to, uh give me like a give
me just give me a buzzword, a code word, any
any code word. Booger Okay. I want you to say
the code.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Word when you hear the name of a Seahawk player
that is not a starting player for them.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
You ready?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Now woe Sue Williams, Murphy, Mafey, Love Baker, no bookers,
no booker or booger free book free. Those are all
the starters that were out for the Seahawk defense at
some point or another right during that game.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yes, on Sunday, over half the dee right, correct.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
So Mike Florio's on with us last segment talking about
the guys that are banged up.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
It's even worse than I think people think.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
And if they have half those guys or all of them,
like Milan made the point in the Morning Show, I
think it was yesterday, this defense is going to be really,
really good, but they need their dudes right, like the scheme.
I thought the scheme was good enough to maybe give
them a chance. I was wrong about that Monday. Maybe
after a year in the scheme, they will be able
to pull off something like that, but they weren't ready
yet to pull that off on Monday nights. So I
(21:06):
think I just bring it up because I mentioned this
to Mike last second. We got factor fiction in a
few minutes. By the way, Steve's two for that. But
I mentioned to Mike that I can't remember the last
time I felt this encouraged about the Seahawks after they
lost the game.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Yeah, you know, it's funny because both of our teams
this weekend lost games in which their offense looked incredible
in both games, and It's so funny because I think
Seahawks fans are so much more encouraged going forward about
their team. And I'm not saying rightfully or wrongfully. I
just think that's the fact than Husky fans are despite
(21:41):
the fact that the Dogs are literally a one yard
run and a field goal potentially away from being five
to zero and like ranked seventeenth in the country. Yeah,
you know, it's just it's bizarre how down Husky fans
are about the huh and the Seahawks are a half
(22:02):
game better than the Huskies and everybody's optimistic.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
I think part of that is the fact that they
played for a national championship last year, so naturally, whatever
happens this year is going to be a letdown, right
versus last year, Like they're not going to play for
the national championship. They were never going to play for
the national championship this year after fifty one new guys.
So I think people just gradually, naturally or not going
to be as stoked about it given what they played
(22:26):
for last year what they played for this year. And
then I think, honestly, for me, I just think that
it just comes down to a trust issue. So far,
we don't know Jetfish and Brendan Carroll and Steve Belichick.
We know John Schneider, right, We don't know Mike McDonald,
but we as hell know John Schneider. And as long
as John Schneider is here, I think Seahawks fans, I
can to speak for myself, but I feel like they're
(22:47):
going to have a shot to win something of some
sort every single year, whether it's finish above five hundred,
whether it's a wild card team, whether it's make the playoffs,
whether it's connete for a championship, as long as that
guy is here. And look, I mean, I understand the
point about the Husky offense moving the ball.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
But man, they can't finish, right.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
It's not just the penalties they are you know what,
they're touchdown percentages right now. It's like it's they're like
nine for eighteen fifty percent. Last year they were almost
seventy percent with those guys, and now they're at fifty percent.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Anders.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
I think the disparity between the feelings towards those two
come from how you we feel about the coaching staffs,
because I think that the Softie was saying about, you know,
you feel good about the defensive skiing. Obviously you feel
good about the offensive.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Right you know Ryan Grubb?
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah, exactly? Does he not have massive credibility in this town?
The words trust right, right?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
We trust Ryan Grubb, We trust John Schneider, right, we
think we trust Mike McDonald's. And I don't feel a
lot of trust coming from Husky Nation those jetfish right now?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Yet, No, because well, let's face it, what is the
when it comes to the moments that stand out, whether
good or bad, that people talk about with jedfish, what
are they?
Speaker 2 (23:56):
They're all bad? They're all bad, They're all every single
one is there down? Yes, yes, they're correct.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Yes, you know the disaster that was Friday night with
blockfields should have been a double digit wines.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Oh no, no question, do it right? They should have
kicked their ass on Friday night. Should have kicked their
ass on Friday night. And when you think about the
Husky coaching staff or the Huskies, unfortunately, the moments that
inspire any kind of emotion are negative, because, let's face it,
the positive moments are beating the crap out of Weber State,
Eastern Michigan and a horrible Northwestern team. So they got
(24:30):
to do something of significance and that could happen this
saturdayday versus Michigan.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Factor Fiction. Right now, where's that to go? Glad you're
with us.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
It's your shot at our weekly thousand bucks and the
ten thousand dollars grand prize. It's fact or Fiction, brought
to you by the Emerald Queen Casino, the betting capital
of the Northwest. Make the beautiful New equc Sportsbookie your
home all.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Football season long.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Fact door Fiction is on Sports Radio ninety three point
three Jr.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
F All right, Andrews, let me ask you this, since
you are the king poobah in charge of Factor Fiction.
The the winners at the end of the year is
that judged by total wins or winning percentage.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Total wins for the for the f station contest, just
for the swimmers, just the shows. That is all we
care about is winning percentages.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Good, thank you, because we're gonna have less picks because
we had like shows like Friday, we have no selection.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
That's right. So we are ten and eight.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
H Ian is eleven and seven, So technically Ian has
the lead so far at sixty one. We are at
fifty five point five, Chuck and Bucket fifty seven and
Greg and Chris, those poor bastards at fifty two point six.
From a host perspective, we're doing okay. You and me,
Dick are four and three, Jackson's two and two. Chuck
(25:50):
is having a hell of a year at five and one,
Andrews good work at three and one. Bucky Jacobson so
far holding up the rear two and five overall, but
I won't say anything bad about him because much bigger
than me and the shares. So we got to get
a win today, right are? We are riding so far
this week? The under in the UW Michigan game and
the Seahawks minus six against the Giants. Wednesday's Usey Jackson Day.
(26:13):
But he's out, He's getting fired. To give Mike Florio rays.
What do you got Joe Burrow this year?
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Folks seven touchdowns, one interception, passer rating of one oh
six in his last five games against the Baltimore Ravens
forty one to twenty one win, forty one seventeen win,
twenty four to seventeen win, twenty seven to sixteen win,
and a two point loss. He is four and one
in his last five games against the Ravens with a
passer rating well above one hundred and averaging thirty points
(26:43):
per game. And this is a Ravens defense that is
not as good as the Mike McDonald Ravens defenses that
were shredded in the past by Joe Burrow. And because
the Baltimore Ravens absolutely embarrassed the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night,
look what the line went from. It went from Cincinnati
(27:03):
minus two and a half to Cincinnati.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Plus wow one and a half.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Wow, give me the Bengals at home against the Ravens
us one and a half.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
All right, Bengals plus the point and a half.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
You like it?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Fact two and a half. Sorry, I was about to.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Give you that two and a half. Let's just make it.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Three and a half.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Can we move it up? No?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
No, no, no, alright, plus two and a half.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Clarification two more time, Bengals plus two and a half.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Right again, two and a half, the goals plus two
and a half.
Speaker 5 (27:32):
And say it again, Bengals plus two and a half,
Cincinnati plus two and a half.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
One more time, Bengals plus two and a half, plus
two and a half, and they gotta win the game.
They're one and three.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Well, here's the thing, though, about the Bengals.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
If they win this game on Sunday, here's who they
have coming up next, the Giants, the Browns, the Eagles,
and the Raiders. If they win on a run and
get back in the race. If they win, I.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Think people might be talking about them being the favorite
for that division because they'll already have the first game
against the Ravens.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
All right, we like.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
The Bengals plus the two and a half you like it,

Andrews. Who is Billy Joe Hobert.
Speaker 5 (30:19):
The only reason I know is because I just looked

Speaker 2 (30:25):
What happened to us?
Speaker 1 (30:26):

you happen to hear the lines?
Speaker 2 (30:58):
What's that? Dick?
Speaker 3 (30:59):
On the up A Adams podcast with Kay Adams. Raiders
wide receiver Davante Adams, no relation to Kay Adams, by
the way, was asked if he has played his last
down as a Las Vegas Raider.
Speaker 8 (31:11):
And uh, And what I'm hearing is that you here's
a lot of people think you're you may never play
another down as a Raider.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
What would you say to that?
Speaker 6 (31:21):
All I can control is this this talk we're having
right here, and then after we're done with this, all
I can control is the next thing that I'm bunzing.
So I'm gonna get up in a minute and get
a nice workout in, and that's all I can control.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
So this story just came down that Davante Adams not
expected to play Sunday versus Denver with a hamstring injury
and the fact that he wants to trade yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:45):
And the fact that every team that is in talks
with the Raiders right now are like, he's not playing Sunday,
right yeah, Yeah, to hold him out unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
All right, hey, Dick, did you happen? What's that?
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Dick?
Speaker 3 (32:00):
On first take after the passing of MLB All time
hits leader Pete Roase, Stephen A. Smith makes his feelings
about his omission from the Hall of Fame very clear.
Speaker 11 (32:09):
Murderers have been left let off quicker that Pete Rose has,
and Baseball want to sit up there with his high
and mighty hypocritical seals and literally denigrate this man. In
twenty sixteen, he got a stint, I'm sorry. In nineteen
ninety nine he got a standing ovation. Remember that doggie
in at large Erman World Series. Remember that they gave
him a standing ovation. The American public said, bue ball
(32:33):
at we want this man here. We know what he
did for the game. We know he hurt himself. We
know that wasn't a good look, but it shouldn't erased.
Twenty three years and they did it anyway, Pox on
all their damn houses.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
They might not make any mistakes.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
They better not make any mistakes.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Don't forgive him, y'all.
Speaker 11 (32:50):
Don't forgive anybody anybody in baseball who could have forgive
Pete Rose, none of them.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Ready, right, I'm not sure how he feels.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
He's totally right.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
He should be in all of them.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
I'm not sure. Let's play it the game at back.
I mean, he's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
You kill somebody, you stay in the Hall of Fame,
you bet on baseball, your band for life. I realized
it's a different hall of fame. On crap, what a
different sport and all that stuff. But the irony is it?
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Irony?
Speaker 6 (33:14):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (33:14):
The right word is not lost on me at all.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
Right, oj Simpson is still in the Hall of Fame
and Pete Rose and shoeless Joe Jackson or not. I
didn't realize that he had a standing ovation twenty five
years ago. I still thought twenty five years ago, there's
a lot of people that didn't think he should belong
in the hall.
Speaker 4 (33:32):
But I mean, have you pulled the American public now, God,
what would it be like ninety five to five?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
You think Pete Rose is really alive and put money
on his own death? Wow, somebody actually said that he
staged his own death and bet money on the day
he would die. He's gonna send someone to collect it,
all right, Hey, Dick, did you happen to hear that?
Speaker 2 (33:52):
What's that?
Speaker 8 (33:53):
Dick?
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Let's stay three, four or five anders which one do
you think is better?
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Let's see number four, all right, number four.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
After the bizarre doubleheader on Monday between the Mets and
Brave to decide who was the last two teams that
would be in the playoffs in the NL, Brandon Nimmo
was asked about when the team switched gears from celebrating
going to the playoffs and at.
Speaker 7 (34:14):
What point did you guys as a team sort of
shift from celebration mode to back into business mode. I
honestly think probably when leaving the clubhouse switched from you know,
celebration mode to you know, locking it back in. I
mean we even had to right we got on the plane,
(34:36):
we had to decide on you know, like business kind
of stuff as far as like playoff shares go and
all that stuff. So they just say, hey, we need
this by at the end of the flight, you know,
so you can't be drunk and handing that stuff out.
So yeah, otherwise somebody's gonna get way too much and
somebody's not gonna get enough.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
So you know, what's the whole flight is just waste it.
And they have like one guy that played one inning
in May for.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Yes, give us. I can see that. And we by
the way we are, we are just dumb. You know
that we are dumbasses here?
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Why did we not put every penny we owned on
the Mariners against the Astros the day after the Astros
won the West and every penny we owned on the
Braves over the Mets in game two of that doubleheader
when the Mets came back and won and got nothing.
But you know what faced in the clubhouse between games?
Are we stupid or something?
Speaker 4 (35:29):
Or what?
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Well, opportunities like that don't.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
Come around very often.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
I didn't see the line, but I imagine we've been
a minus four hundred game.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
I don't think we won much. All right, let's got
a break. Petros Papadakas gonna join us. Coming up next
right here on ninety three to three Cage A r

Speaker 2 (00:15):
If somebody took your dad's bush? How about this?
Speaker 3 (00:17):
In baseball, the Houston Astros are done, audios out of
the MLB playoffs. They have been swept by the Detroit
Tigers in the AL Wild Card round, a five to
two loss today, and both games happened in front of
their fans.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Fat faces in Houston.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Tigers moving on to the Alds against the Guardians by
the Royals, looking to dispatch of Baltimore. My god, Baltimore's
down one nothing at the top of the fifth. They
lose this game. They're done as well. Mets Brewers in
Game two with the Mets up one game tonight at
four to thirty, Braves Padres with the Padres leading one
game tonight at five thirty to night.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
If you're in the playoffs for less than forty eight
hours as a count.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Technically no, think it does either.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
That's a baseball rule Byron Murphy, not able to practice today,
still bothered with a pulled Hams trained to see the
Patriots signed today. Our guy who's a former Husky Jack
Westlf signing been placed on the practice.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
What about that?
Speaker 3 (01:11):
By the way, speaking of the Bucks and the Falcons,
on Thursday, Tampa Bay is going to be with that
wide receivers Trey Palmer and some guy named Jalen McMillan
will also not play in the game. DeVante Adams, apparently,
according to Schefty, has a wish list of trade partners.
The Jets and Saints are near the top. Eat more
of our guys.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
In the news today, Dave Simms named a finalists for
the Baseball Hall of Fame's twenty twenty five Ford Frick Award.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I think you're going to say, a finalist for the
Yankee job.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
My god, the next words, I thought, we're coming out
of your mouth. NCAA basketball first and second rounds return
to Climate Pledge Arena next year. They announced today they
will also return in twenty twenty eight in Seattle at
Climate Pledge Arena.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
The jubber Nick Chubb back at Cleveland practice today for
the first time since his gruesome ACL terry.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
You're a does anybody actually call him the chubber, yeah,
or is that just a youth.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
That's a meeting.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I've never heard him called the chubber. I like it though.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
More In the NCAA, Texas State has ended talks with

I'll go at seven o'clock, six thirty pre game the
opener Tuesday at one thirty versus Saint Louis. Right here

Speaker 4 (02:25):
Ten go and now some goofy Waco out of touch.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Homers, just bree the radio, just forble.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
By forty one yards from Elliott Bay.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Can you feel it?
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Now?
Speaker 4 (02:40):
This is softy into I.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Think the question, azure, what's that? It's the question of
the day.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I'll have that. That sounds good. I'll take that.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Do we feel better or worse as Mariner fans because
the Astros got swept by the Tigers and their season
is over? Because don't forget, if the Mariners had tied
with Kansas City or beating Kansas City and taking that
third wild card, they would have played Baltimore in the
first round. Not the Tigers, obviously, But do we feel
better or worse? The same indifferent after watching the Astros
(03:14):
get swept by the Tigers today?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Do you give a damn?
Speaker 4 (03:16):
I don't really give a damn, honestly, that's the first answer.
But if to answer the question, I would say probably
a little worse because it just reminds us how just throw,
you know, throw numbers in a hat and pull one out.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
That the baseball playoffs so hard? Way, Yeah, that's a crapshoot, man, But.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I tell you I know who's feeling better today than
he was yesterday though. That's John Stanton seeing the twenty
sixth payroll in baseball, beating the Houston Astros and seeing
the what's Kansas City? The twentieth payroll in baseball? About
ready to beat the Baltimore Oils and advance in the
next round.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Now, if your goal is to win a wildcard round,
then great. Your goals to win a World Series title
then not so great.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
I guess we'll see who wins the World Series, right.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
And even if they do win the World Series, I
mean the odds say we've been down this road a
million damn times, And please for the love of God,
I hope you're not. I hope you're being sarcastic about
the John Stanton thing.
Speaker 5 (04:05):
Also, Baltimore is a lower payroll in case he does
right right.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
Yes, and then three of those four teams were in
the got the Mets, You've got the Braves, You've got
the Padres, you got the Yankees coming up their teams
that actually spend money, and the numbers show historically when
it comes to making the final four of baseball, which
is the ALCS and the NLCS, the more money you spend,
the better the odds are that you'll play in the
Final four with a shot to go to a World Series.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
So I don't want to hear it. I don't want
to hear it from anybody.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Don't you dare put those thoughts on John Stanton's head,
Dick Fame huh, Ricky, Bobby, Don't.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
You dare put that on me? Baby?
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Don't you dare allow our guys to wake up and
think like that. Well, that's not the truth, though, that's
the thing. Well, we've been over telling me. The truth
is what we have done. This research can handle the truth.
I want you to tell me what the truth is.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
According to you.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
We have done the research before. You and I have
broken down the numbers. You are correct, payroll gives you
a better chance to make the playoffs. However, to win
the World Series. There is not a direct correlation, because
it's just I mean, I.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Don't think that's true either, Dick Oh. I can go
back like forty years.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
I can go back like thirty years.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
And again you're talking about if we're gonna sit here
and say the baseball is a crap shoot. I want
a shot to play for a World series title, not
just a shot to make the playoffs. And the more
money you spend, the more shots you play, the more
bites at the apple you have when it comes to
being four wins away from a World series. Don't make
me do all the research again, because I will. I
will go home tonight and I will log onto my
(05:34):
web browser and I will pay for the internet, and
I will google the crap out of pay thee and
I will bring you the numbers that you seek.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Can two things be true?
Speaker 6 (05:43):
Nope?
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Only one true? Can the Mariners? Can there be a
need for the Mariners to spend more? And yet is
it is it fair? Can we all agree that the
Mariners don't have to be a top ten payroll team
in baseball to have a good chance to win the
World Series? Can both of those things coexist?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
A good chance? I want the best chance. I want
the best chance.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Okay, but you know you're never going to be a
top five payroll?
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Why not?
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Well, and if you don't have a top ten many payroll,
then you need an elite GM that actually gets the
most out of the player.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
I mean, why can't Why can't we have a top
five payroll? Why can't we have a top ten pay roll?
There's nothing in baseball that says the Mariners can't have the.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Top five, say top ten. I mean you're not. Let's Dave,
You're not going to no matter who the owner is
in Seattle. Huh, You're not gonna have a Mets, Yankees, Dodgers, Phillies.
What a payroll?
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Why not?
Speaker 3 (06:34):
What if Jeff Bezos buys the team? What if Steve
Bomber buys the team? What if Bill Gates buys the team? Look,
I know I'm.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Right.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Well I'm telling you that the reality is is that
that likely is never going to happen. The problem is
you have people that walk around with that mentality, and
they need to be reminded every single day.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Hey, baseball, lets you do.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Whatever you want to do. So what do you doing
being frugal? For God's sakes? Mike Florio joins us. Right now, it's.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Here he is the king of all NFL media, the
undisputed heavyweight champion of the NFL Press score from Pro
Football Talk, the NFL, and NBC our buddy Mike Florio,
how are you pal?
Speaker 9 (08:00):
Well? The good news is that Buff Hoole still gets
you a percentage discount that matches the percentage of the
rays that I got this year.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
So we have begun the process of firing Jackson Felts
to pay for your raise.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
And you may notice he's.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Not here, not here today for Jackson, it's a school.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
It's the mustache.
Speaker 9 (08:26):
I'd be twisting the end of.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
It right now.
Speaker 9 (08:28):
I love it, Hey, handlebar mustache handed bar. I knew
I was forgetting the name handlebar.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Muf Do the Raiders trade DeVante Adams And if so,
where does he go?
Speaker 9 (08:39):
Well? I think at this point it would be a
shock if he's not traded. I think the only way
he would stay, the only chance, and this is slim.
The Raiders would have to go on a here without
him because he's weaked the week with a hamstring injury,
which means he's not going to play for them until
they trade him. So he would have to decide that
his best option is to stay, and he's already decided
(09:01):
that's not his best option. So the question becomes where
does he go? And there was reporting earlier today from
Sheffy that he wants to go to the Jets of
the Saints, and that raises a separate question. Will the
Raiders accommodate him and trade him where he wants to go?
If not, would his team trade for him if he
doesn't want to be there. I think that's a mistake.
(09:23):
The Jets have always made the most sense. Although they
have a glut of receivers. You'd have to do something
with one of those guys Gret Wilson, Allens Are and
Mike Williams unless you just want to go four deep,
but they're already struggling to get the ball around in
that offense. I don't know that it makes sense for
the Jets, but the Jets are the one team that
kind of stands out right now. And the other thing
to remember too, you got enough cap space to absorb
(09:44):
his contract even if you restructure it the day he
walks through the door. I just confirmed that with a
GM who understands the rules better than I do, and
probably better than most people. If he walks through the
door with a cap number from his existing salary that
puts you over. That's no good. You can't just say
we're going to redo it and drop it and get
there by the close of business. He's got to be
(10:05):
within the cap. You've got to be within the cap
when he shows up, which means you got a clear
cap space elsewhere. If his salary would put you over,
that's just another thing to keep in mind. And then
there's the trade compensation, another and go and then I'll
shut up the possibility that the Raiders will pay some
of his base salary in order to make the deal
more enticing and to get more by way of compensation.
(10:27):
And we've seen that before you pay some money and
you get a higher draft pick, you're basically using the
situation to buy yourself better draft picks collateral in the future.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Is Antonio Pears liking an Instagram post about the trade
a nothing or does it show a little bit of
a maturity deficit with him? And also hurts the team
get value because the other team can just be like, well,
your coach doesn't want to he'sking Instagram posts about a trade.
Speaker 9 (10:56):
Well, first of all, if you've got multiple teams that
want him. It doesn't matter if the Raiders don't keeping
the guy. Threatening to keep the guy, Acting like you're
going to keep the guy becomes valuable if you've only
got one suitor. I don't know how much the Instagram
thing matters, because I think this the handwriting was already
on the wall in permanent ink. I went on Football
Night in America based upon the information that was available
(11:18):
to us on Sunday and said, hey, get ready for
the chatter that DeVante Adam's going to be traded by
the deadline, and lo and behold. By the next day
it started, and by yesterday, two days later, there was
a report he wants out. There's a report that the
Raiders want a package and includes the second round pick.
And now by today we know where he wants to go.
And you know, the question is when does a team
(11:41):
get this done? And I think if you're going to
trade for him, the sooner the better, because the sooner
he gets up to speed, the better off he's going
to be in helping you get to where you want
to go to get him. Ready to trade deadline for
a lot unless it's an identical offense to the one
he's been running, or one that he knows from his
time with the Packers, for example, which makes the Jets
(12:03):
more sensible. You got to get the guy up the
speed to get a return on him right away, especially
if you don't do an extension with him and you're
just running him for the rest of the year, because
next year his salary goes to thirty five point sixty
four million, So without a new contract, he's going to
get cut after the season by whoever employed.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Well, Mike Florio's with us and the Dolphins started with Tua.
Skyler Thompson came in, he's out, Huntley's in. We're watching
two on the sideline. They're one and three. It's unraveling.
They've scored twenty five points combined in three games, by
the way the Dolphins have and they got.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Some winnable games.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I guess coming up Patriots, Colts Arizona is too a
close to even coming back.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
What's the latest on that.
Speaker 9 (12:45):
The Arizona game is the earliest when he could come
back after he suffered that concussion. It was only two
weeks and.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
Six days ago.
Speaker 9 (12:52):
It's amazing how much the NFL changes in a short
period of time. It feels a lot longer in the
past that that concussion half. They put him on injured reserve,
mainly to take timelines out of the equation. You don't
want to have urgency, that magnet that draws him back
to the field, that tries to get him, and the
doctors eating the independent doctors. The idea of Hey, the
(13:13):
idea is, we want guys who are going to play football.
Let's check the boxes, let's put the guy back on
the field. But the problem is is the Dolphins struggle.
There's this simmering, almost boiling sense of we need to
go back. When's the earliest he can come back. You've
got some breathols reporting out there that he's got no symptoms,
he's on track to return, we date, But what's he
(13:36):
coming back to. He's coming back to a sport where
the risk of another concussion is right in the middle
of the radar screen. It's not some vague looke possibility.
The deamorw Hamlin injury from early twenty twenty three was
a fluke, a freak occurrence. Concussions aren't. They're right within
the boundaries of the risks you assume when you play football.
(13:58):
So I was kind of hope thing. Now. Look, I'm
not going to say he should retire. I was hoping
that he wouldn't play again this year and make a
good decision detached from the urgency to get back and
help and the way things are going for the Dolphins,
I feel like the urgency is going to cloud his
judgment and make him do something. Maybe he shouldn't do that,
Maybe isn't in his long term best interest.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
That makes any sense, Yeah, the Mike. The Seahawks continue
to creep ever so slowly up your power rankings. You
now have them in the top half of the NFL
at sixteenth year.
Speaker 9 (14:31):
Move them up even though they lost.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yes, they're not They're not high enough. They're not moving
them up even though they lost. You don't know what
you're doing. They're not high enough.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Yeah that what's your thought of their fight? Without their
basically entire defense against the game?
Speaker 9 (14:47):
I was impressed by Geno Smith. I was impressed by
the offense. The Lions are no slous. You know, the
Seahawks have a good recent history against the Lions. They
gave him everything they could handle. I was very disappointed
in the NFL's replay function because two point conversion where
DK caught the ball and got his knee down should
have been automatically reviewed, full blown replay review, and it
(15:08):
should have been turned into a good two pointer. Then
what happens Think about the mindset. It's one thing for
the Lions to come out with the ball first and
tender on their own thirty up eight, Yeah, we can
be a little aggressive here. We're up eight. They got
to score a touchdown and a two pointer just to
tie us. If you're up six, maybe you're a little tighter,
maybe you're a little more careful. Maybe that drive is
(15:30):
in a lightning strike seventy yard catch and run by
Jamison Williams. And I think to what happened the day
before at lambeau Field. The Vikings up by the same
score twenty eight to fourteen. Packers score go for two
and get it. That's a very nerve wracking drive when
you're up six instead of eight. And so I think
(15:51):
the Seahawks got screwed by the NFL's failure in that regard.
And you got to go back to that same point
in the game and play it out and see how
it goes. But I think it would have been a
different vibe on the ensuing drive for the Lions, right
if they were up six instead of eight.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
So explain this again to me like I'm an idiot,
which I am, So it should be easy. So the
two point inversion is not reviewable, but it should be
in your opinion or it is, and they didn't look
at it the.
Speaker 9 (16:16):
Two point conversion. They added this to the rule book
a few years ago. Now, all scoring plays are subject
to automatic review without a challenge.
Speaker 10 (16:26):
If it's an incomplete path in the end zone, you
have to challenge. And I think that's where this might
have gotten twisted up by the people who are responsible
for this, because the rule book says all two point
tried are subject to automatic review, successful or unsuccessful. So
if that had been a touchdown that had not counted,
(16:47):
the Seahawks would have had.
Speaker 9 (16:48):
To challenge it. It wouldn't have been automatic review if
it had been a touchdown. It's automatic review on a
two point play, whatever the outcome, it's automatic review. So
the NFL dropped the ball on this. The Seahawks technically
couldn't have even challenged because it's automatic review. And I
thought somebody claimed that while they decided quickly that it
wasn't a catch. It's got to be clear and obvious
(17:10):
that the ruling on the field is correct before they
will turn around and just rubber stamp it without a
full blown review. There should have been a full blown review,
and as the rules analyst said on the game Monday night,
it should have been a good two point play.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Mike, does Aaron Rodgers respect Robert Salah? And if not,
how big of a problem is that for the Jets?
Speaker 9 (17:31):
Respect really isn't the word that comes to mind. Look,
we know Aaron Rodgers' history. He's the delicate genius around
whom you must tiptoe with things you say, with things
you do. In the book by you know O'Connor, Out
of the Darkness, The Mystery of Aaron Rodgers, there is
a chapter dedicated to what Rogers and those close to
(17:52):
him refer to as the island. If you piss him off,
you end up on the island. You're excommunicating family members,
immediate family members, family members who weren't apparently involved in
whatever it was that got him upset on the island.
Friends on the island, and Robert Sala. I think he
might have gotten himself in the hot water when he
suggested publicly after Sunday's game, and it had five fold
(18:14):
start penalties, that may be an issue with the Cadence.
Rogers said, there's no issue with the Cadence. Hold the
god's accountable for making mistakes. The next day there's Sala
standing up there with a mop and a bucket clean
up on Aisle five. Oh, it's not really the Cadence,
it's the operation. So I think that Sala has to to,
as I said earlier, tiptoe around the delicate genius because
(18:37):
if he pushes anything too far. The reality is Rogers
has the power. They gave him the power, and when
they accepted his gesture of a thirty five million dollar
pay cut, remember that last year after he was traded,
and it's it percolated for a while, what's gonna happen
with his contract? And he just gives up thirty five
million by accepting that, What do you do as a
(18:58):
Jets You give him? They he to the franchise, He
in charge, and yeah, I don't know that it's a
matter of respect. It's a matter of control. Rogers controls him,
and Rogers wants to control every relationship in his life.
And if he doesn't control it. He just cuts it off.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Mike Florio, great stuff, always a pleasure. We'll talk in
a week.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
See it.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
He's Mike, But Mike Florio, see you, Letterman joining us
on the radio show.
Speaker 9 (19:24):
But hold every week.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Courtesy is simply a Seattle fact or fiction brought to
you by the Emerald Queen. It's Wednesday, but Jackson's not here,
so you and Jackson are flip flopping. So Dick will
take the pick next on ninety three to three KJRFM
Live from the.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
R and R Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio. Now back to
Softie and Dick on your Home for the Huskies and
the Kraken Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ R FM.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
I want you to, uh give me like a give
me just give me a buzzword, a code word, any
any code word. Booger Okay. I want you to say
the code.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Word when you hear the name of a Seahawk player
that is not a starting player for them.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
You ready?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Now woe Sue Williams, Murphy, Mafey, Love Baker, no bookers,
no booker or booger free book free. Those are all
the starters that were out for the Seahawk defense at
some point or another right during that game.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yes, on Sunday, over half the dee right, correct.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
So Mike Florio's on with us last segment talking about
the guys that are banged up.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
It's even worse than I think people think.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
And if they have half those guys or all of them,
like Milan made the point in the Morning Show, I
think it was yesterday, this defense is going to be really,
really good, but they need their dudes right, like the scheme.
I thought the scheme was good enough to maybe give
them a chance. I was wrong about that Monday. Maybe
after a year in the scheme, they will be able
to pull off something like that, but they weren't ready
yet to pull that off on Monday nights. So I
(21:06):
think I just bring it up because I mentioned this
to Mike last second. We got factor fiction in a
few minutes. By the way, Steve's two for that. But
I mentioned to Mike that I can't remember the last
time I felt this encouraged about the Seahawks after they
lost the game.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Yeah, you know, it's funny because both of our teams
this weekend lost games in which their offense looked incredible
in both games, and It's so funny because I think
Seahawks fans are so much more encouraged going forward about
their team. And I'm not saying rightfully or wrongfully. I
just think that's the fact than Husky fans are despite
(21:41):
the fact that the Dogs are literally a one yard
run and a field goal potentially away from being five
to zero and like ranked seventeenth in the country. Yeah,
you know, it's just it's bizarre how down Husky fans
are about the huh and the Seahawks are a half
(22:02):
game better than the Huskies and everybody's optimistic.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
I think part of that is the fact that they
played for a national championship last year, so naturally, whatever
happens this year is going to be a letdown, right
versus last year, Like they're not going to play for
the national championship. They were never going to play for
the national championship this year after fifty one new guys.
So I think people just gradually, naturally or not going
to be as stoked about it given what they played
(22:26):
for last year what they played for this year. And
then I think, honestly, for me, I just think that
it just comes down to a trust issue. So far,
we don't know Jetfish and Brendan Carroll and Steve Belichick.
We know John Schneider, right, We don't know Mike McDonald,
but we as hell know John Schneider. And as long
as John Schneider is here, I think Seahawks fans, I
can to speak for myself, but I feel like they're
(22:47):
going to have a shot to win something of some
sort every single year, whether it's finish above five hundred,
whether it's a wild card team, whether it's make the playoffs,
whether it's connete for a championship, as long as that
guy is here. And look, I mean, I understand the
point about the Husky offense moving the ball.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
But man, they can't finish, right.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
It's not just the penalties they are you know what,
they're touchdown percentages right now. It's like it's they're like
nine for eighteen fifty percent. Last year they were almost
seventy percent with those guys, and now they're at fifty percent.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Anders.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
I think the disparity between the feelings towards those two
come from how you we feel about the coaching staffs,
because I think that the Softie was saying about, you know,
you feel good about the defensive skiing. Obviously you feel
good about the offensive.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Right you know Ryan Grubb?
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Yeah, exactly? Does he not have massive credibility in this town?
The words trust right, right?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
We trust Ryan Grubb, We trust John Schneider, right, we
think we trust Mike McDonald's. And I don't feel a
lot of trust coming from Husky Nation those jetfish right now?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Yet, No, because well, let's face it, what is the
when it comes to the moments that stand out, whether
good or bad, that people talk about with jedfish, what
are they?
Speaker 2 (23:56):
They're all bad? They're all bad, They're all every single
one is there down? Yes, yes, they're correct.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Yes, you know the disaster that was Friday night with
blockfields should have been a double digit wines.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Oh no, no question, do it right? They should have
kicked their ass on Friday night. Should have kicked their
ass on Friday night. And when you think about the
Husky coaching staff or the Huskies, unfortunately, the moments that
inspire any kind of emotion are negative, because, let's face it,
the positive moments are beating the crap out of Weber State,
Eastern Michigan and a horrible Northwestern team. So they got
(24:30):
to do something of significance and that could happen this
saturdayday versus Michigan.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Factor Fiction. Right now, where's that to go? Glad you're
with us.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
It's your shot at our weekly thousand bucks and the
ten thousand dollars grand prize. It's fact or Fiction, brought
to you by the Emerald Queen Casino, the betting capital
of the Northwest. Make the beautiful New equc Sportsbookie your
home all.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Football season long.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Fact door Fiction is on Sports Radio ninety three point
three Jr.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
F All right, Andrews, let me ask you this, since
you are the king poobah in charge of Factor Fiction.
The the winners at the end of the year is
that judged by total wins or winning percentage.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
Total wins for the for the f station contest, just
for the swimmers, just the shows. That is all we
care about is winning percentages.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Good, thank you, because we're gonna have less picks because
we had like shows like Friday, we have no selection.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
That's right. So we are ten and eight.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
H Ian is eleven and seven, So technically Ian has
the lead so far at sixty one. We are at
fifty five point five, Chuck and Bucket fifty seven and
Greg and Chris, those poor bastards at fifty two point six.
From a host perspective, we're doing okay. You and me,
Dick are four and three, Jackson's two and two. Chuck
(25:50):
is having a hell of a year at five and one,
Andrews good work at three and one. Bucky Jacobson so
far holding up the rear two and five overall, but
I won't say anything bad about him because much bigger
than me and the shares. So we got to get
a win today, right are? We are riding so far
this week? The under in the UW Michigan game and
the Seahawks minus six against the Giants. Wednesday's Usey Jackson Day.
(26:13):
But he's out, He's getting fired. To give Mike Florio rays.
What do you got Joe Burrow this year?
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Folks seven touchdowns, one interception, passer rating of one oh
six in his last five games against the Baltimore Ravens
forty one to twenty one win, forty one seventeen win,
twenty four to seventeen win, twenty seven to sixteen win,
and a two point loss. He is four and one
in his last five games against the Ravens with a
passer rating well above one hundred and averaging thirty points
(26:43):
per game. And this is a Ravens defense that is
not as good as the Mike McDonald Ravens defenses that
were shredded in the past by Joe Burrow. And because
the Baltimore Ravens absolutely embarrassed the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night,
look what the line went from. It went from Cincinnati
(27:03):
minus two and a half to Cincinnati.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Plus wow one and a half.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Wow, give me the Bengals at home against the Ravens
us one and a half.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
All right, Bengals plus the point and a half.
Speaker 5 (27:15):
You like it?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Fact two and a half. Sorry, I was about to.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Give you that two and a half. Let's just make it.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Three and a half.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Can we move it up? No?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
No, no, no, alright, plus two and a half.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Clarification two more time, Bengals plus two and a half.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Right again, two and a half, the goals plus two
and a half.
Speaker 5 (27:32):
And say it again, Bengals plus two and a half,
Cincinnati plus two and a half.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
One more time, Bengals plus two and a half, plus
two and a half, and they gotta win the game.
They're one and three.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Well, here's the thing, though, about the Bengals.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
If they win this game on Sunday, here's who they
have coming up next, the Giants, the Browns, the Eagles,
and the Raiders. If they win on a run and
get back in the race. If they win, I.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Think people might be talking about them being the favorite
for that division because they'll already have the first game
against the Ravens.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
All right, we like.
Speaker 3 (28:04):

a lot of people think you're you may never play

and the fact that he wants to trade yeah.

On first take after the passing of MLB All time
hits leader Pete Roase, Stephen A. Smith makes his feelings
about his omission from the Hall of Fame very clear.
Speaker 11 (32:09):
Murderers have been left let off quicker that Pete Rose has,
and Baseball want to sit up there with his high
and mighty hypocritical seals and literally denigrate this man. In
twenty sixteen, he got a stint, I'm sorry. In nineteen
ninety nine he got a standing ovation. Remember that doggie
in at large Erman World Series. Remember that they gave
him a standing ovation. The American public said, bue ball
(32:33):
at we want this man here. We know what he
did for the game. We know he hurt himself. We
know that wasn't a good look, but it shouldn't erased.
Twenty three years and they did it anyway, Pox on
all their damn houses.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
They might not make any mistakes.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
They better not make any mistakes.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Don't forgive him, y'all.
Speaker 11 (32:50):
Don't forgive anybody anybody in baseball who could have forgive
Pete Rose, none of them.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Ready, right, I'm not sure how he feels.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
He's totally right.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
He should be in all of them.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
I'm not sure. Let's play it the game at back.
I mean, he's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
You kill somebody, you stay in the Hall of Fame,
you bet on baseball, your band for life. I realized
it's a different hall of fame. On crap, what a
different sport and all that stuff. But the irony is it?
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Irony?
Speaker 6 (33:14):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (33:14):
The right word is not lost on me at all.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
Right, oj Simpson is still in the Hall of Fame
and Pete Rose and shoeless Joe Jackson or not. I
didn't realize that he had a standing ovation twenty five
years ago. I still thought twenty five years ago, there's
a lot of people that didn't think he should belong
in the hall.
Speaker 4 (33:32):
But I mean, have you pulled the American public now, God,
what would it be like ninety five to five?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
You think Pete Rose is really alive and put money
on his own death? Wow, somebody actually said that he
staged his own death and bet money on the day
he would die. He's gonna send someone to collect it,
all right, Hey, Dick, did you happen to hear that?
Speaker 2 (33:52):
What's that?
Speaker 8 (33:53):
Dick?
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Let's stay three, four or five anders which one do
you think is better?
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Let's see number four, all right, number four.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
After the bizarre doubleheader on Monday between the Mets and
Brave to decide who was the last two teams that
would be in the playoffs in the NL, Brandon Nimmo
was asked about when the team switched gears from celebrating
going to the playoffs and at.
Speaker 7 (34:14):
What point did you guys as a team sort of
shift from celebration mode to back into business mode. I
honestly think probably when leaving the clubhouse switched from you know,
celebration mode to you know, locking it back in. I
mean we even had to right we got on the plane,
(34:36):
we had to decide on you know, like business kind
of stuff as far as like playoff shares go and
all that stuff. So they just say, hey, we need
this by at the end of the flight, you know,
so you can't be drunk and handing that stuff out.
So yeah, otherwise somebody's gonna get way too much and
somebody's not gonna get enough.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
So you know, what's the whole flight is just waste it.
And they have like one guy that played one inning
in May for.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Yes, give us. I can see that. And we by
the way we are, we are just dumb. You know
that we are dumbasses here?
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Why did we not put every penny we owned on
the Mariners against the Astros the day after the Astros
won the West and every penny we owned on the
Braves over the Mets in game two of that doubleheader
when the Mets came back and won and got nothing.
But you know what faced in the clubhouse between games?
Are we stupid or something?
Speaker 4 (35:29):
Or what?
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Well, opportunities like that don't.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
Come around very often.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
I didn't see the line, but I imagine we've been
a minus four hundred game.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
I don't think we won much. All right, let's got
a break. Petros Papadakas gonna join us. Coming up next
right here on ninety three to three Cage A r
