Don't know.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Now with Petros Peers, Dave Softy Muller.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
All right, boys and girls here were going to busy
and I mean very very busy Wednesday afternoon right here
on ninety three to three Kjrfmhu Mal, I'm going to
join us coming up at five and talk about the
the big news of the day with DK Metcalf requesting
a trade Tyler Lockett get and let go.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
But we have really struck gold.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
I think with this opportunity, what a day to have
this man on the radio show. Everybody wants his take
on every sports related topic because he is the king
baby of sports talk in southern California. What half of
the legendary fabled Petrosen Money Show in La The Prince
of pigskin one damn fine Greek American father of the Year,
(01:14):
the husband of the month, and a man that I
am honored to call my friend, Petros Papadacus, brought to
you by Sweet James, the dense beard of Justice, A
man that can come through for you.

has bitten your balls, whatever it is, Sweet James knows
the ancient secrets in which to extract the money you
are owed from the insurance company. Got to give him
a call at eight hundred and nine million. That's eight
hundred and nine zero zero zero zero zero zero or
(01:51):
Sweet James dot com once again, Sweet James dot com.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Hello, so much going on.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I almost feel bad because I don't want to interrupt
the big party going on down there. After your guy
Lebron topped the fifty Southern fifty Southern fifty thousand. How
do I say that fifty thousand point mark last night?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I feel like Trump in that interview. All right, get
it out, Get it out? Three two and one.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
After Lebron topped the fifty thousand point mark last night,
making NBA history us your thoughts, Well, I mean the accolades,
although impress it. I guess they've piled up for so long,
and he's been playing for so long kind of load
(02:38):
managing his way through all of this that it's sort
of like trash passing you in a river.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
At this point, it's like, oh, there's another you know.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
But yeah, look, the Lakers are really hot here in
town and nationally. It's I don't know why you would
need this, but it's helping the NBA out a great deal.
I know you guys aren't big NBA fans.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Some of us are.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
We will be as a collective yet again, when the
Sonics returned, what do you mean? I just when is
that gonna happen? Likely I'd say within the next three
or four years? Oh hell no, you want to bet? No,
I don't care. But it is funny like the mayor
and I mentioned this. I mentioned this to Dick not
(03:23):
long ago, right when we were doing the show. Was like,
when the mayor did that thing, he pulled out the basketball.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Right, Yeah, what do you make of that? I haven't
heard your take on that.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
By the way, there's no shortage in this world of
idiot mayors, especially of large cities, right, I mean Mayor
Quinby from The Simpsons seems like a godsend to a
lot of our towns. And it's kind of funny because
I thought about I mean, we've spent time together, not
not as much. We we are very familiar with each
(03:54):
other because we talk often, but we don't I mean
physically see each other very much.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I will rectify that in about a month and a
half hour. I can't get ready. But I remember.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Many years ago being in the car with you and
just saying something like, yeah, I need some coffee.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Is there a Starbucks or something.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
You were like, if that's Starbucks, I'm never gonna out.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
You were like.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
And I didn't even know, you know, like I didn't
even know about the Starbucks and that the guy sold
the thing, like I didn't care, you know. And and
it was really interesting to me because I came to realize, like,
you have a great sense of humor. You don't care
what people say about this or that. But people in Seattle,
(04:39):
they're sensitive about the basketball thing. They got screwed. It
was a great franchise that had a great identity and
a great history and a championship, and they took it
from you guys, and it's a terrible like nobody cared
here when the Rams left, right, and nobody cared when
the Raiders left. I mean, maybe a few weirdos, but
(05:00):
it didn't deeply wound the city. Sure, if you know
what I mean. And that Seattle Sonics thing is a
deep ass wound. And the fact that the mayor of
the city is so stupid and doesn't understand his own
people's psyche is amazing to me. But then again, our
(05:20):
mayor let the whole city burn down and was hanging
out in Ghana.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
What's worse.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Yeah, well, probably the thing well likely, I'd say you're
right about that. But I mean, here's the thing about
Bruce Harrold. I don't know if you know Bruce Harrold's
history are mayor, No, I don't care.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
He sounds like an idiot.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Well, he played He played linebacker at Washington back in
the day, back in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
He should know better than he's a sports fan.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Yeah, he's been an advocate for the return of the NBA.
It was like, Mike God, the guy just had a
brain fart. What Seattle mayor is going to go up
there and say, you know, I don't advocate the return
of the NBA, but I don't what do I know?
You mess with people up there about as all of
totally agree. Greg Nichols was the name of the mayor
(06:08):
who was on who was in office when they left,
and he was the idiot who agreed to let him walk,
and so well, David Stern says, this is the best
chance to get him back.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
And just like naive idiot.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
It's like being in Chicago and saying, God, you know
in that I'll tell you that New York City, some'm
exciting and Chicago what we have museums, we have culture,
we have plays, you know. I mean, it's just it's
not something you mess with people in Seattle. But as
(06:38):
far as the the whole NBA conspiracy theory, things go
and teams moving around and the ticking of the clock
and the shifting of the ground, it is for anybody
that actually thinks and maybe maybe this is maybe I'm
the idiot, Maybe I'm the conspiracy theorist, and I belong
with George Norri or Art Bell on.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Coast to coast overnight, Art Bell, May he rest in peace.
But wow, that's a name.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
If you believe like, look at what's happening around the
NBA right now, and look at the headlines about the Lakers.
Consider the fact that up until like maybe last I
don't know the stats up up past last night, but
the Lakers have shot two hundred and twenty two more
free throws and their opponents this year. You put all
that together and if people really, if you really believe
(07:28):
that Rob Palenka, Kobe's former agent, and this brain dead
idiot in Dallas that they're going to run out of
town did this deal under the silence of church for
months and no one knew this was happening at least weeks,
and somehow pulled off this trade. And since then in Dallas,
(07:49):
they've burned this guy in effigy, they put Luca in
a coffin, They've raised ticket prices, Anthony Davis is hurt,
Kyrie blew as acl I mean, and they have new ownership.
They're going to try to move that team to Vegas.
Right it was all I mean, it feels like no
Sperazu old Adam Silver was playing three D checkers. I
(08:11):
don't know if the Lakers are gonna win the whole
thing or all that, but they have momentum right now
and everybody's really pleased and happy with what's going on.
It's just very interesting to me that, oh wow, look
at and the other thing was right when it happened,
everybody wanted to say Lebron was involved, and then it
was like, oh my god, this was the only one.
(08:32):
He wasn't involved in all that stuff we told you
before you was a lie, right, and then all of
a sudden, like now that it's working out, yeah, you know,
you and I aren't the level of radio host that
Maverick Carter or Rich Paul would call up. But these
guys brag about it, you know, like because they have
such giant rabbit ears, the Lebron people. You hear Calhern
(08:53):
or Steven A or Dan Patrick even be like, yeah, well,
Maverick Carter called me and he wasn't very pleased with
what I said. It's like they have the biggest rabbit
ears in the world, and now all of a sudden,
their people, their media types are giving Lebron credit for
the train all of a sudden again because it's working.
It's to say that it's working that they've given, you know,
(09:14):
It's like, why is the distribution of credit so damn
important to Lebron because he needs to make it always
about him.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
It really does feel that way, or indirectly, you look.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
At people on Twitter and it's like, oh, Lebron finally
got the support he needed.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
It's the support he needed.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Is the best player in the NBA sent to his team,
That's the support. Dick and I got into a big
argument yesterday about this, and Dick doesn't like the Remember
the old Richard Sherman, don't you dare talk about me?
Interview with Aaron Andrews, right all that. So Dick's not
a big fan of that, and then that's fine.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
We got to be a fan of what.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
He doesn't like that Sherman did that after the game,
that he was all around up yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Which is fine.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
I mean the video of Sherman drunk throwing himself into
his in laws door.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Not exactly, We're not exactly.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
You know, football people are volatile people, you know, extremely volatile, right,
you know what I'm saying. Yeah, So I mean I
can't believe that that bothers. I mean, I like Dick,
everybody knows that, but I'm a real.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Wow what okay?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
But but all I'm saying is show no, I look,
but my point is, like it bothers me. Where like
people watch football, they are on the sidelines of football games.
They know the type of people that play football, they
know the violence that's involved, and then after a game win,
Oh my.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
God, this guy's way too aggressive. It's right.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
It's like hiring Steve's psychle Lions. Like we hired Steve's
Cycle Lions. That's great. Why'd you hire him because he's crazy?
We fired Steve's Cycle Lions. Why'd you fire him because
he's crazy? It's like, oh god, I love you. What
about Dick and Lebron? Oh, I forgot it ready. I
have no idea. We got new a little what well,
(11:12):
I got into an argument about you know, I'm like you,
I think he always tries to make everything about him,
and you know, Dick's point is strategically yeah, but but
his point is that, you know, Lebron's never gone after
you know, an opponent or a teammate.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
I guess the way Sherman did or whatever. After that
game you're.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Talking about, he attacked Kevin Love on Twitter for his
mental ill illness issues.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Okay, well there you go.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Yeah, so that so absolutely he has He's so tweeted,
and he attacked the Lakers front office last year.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Maybe it's me around the trade deadline? You know, why is?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Why are we constantly I don't remember growing up being like, God,
we got to get Michael Jordan some help.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Right, I just don't. I don't remember that, correct, you know?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
I mean it's it's I know, he's the face of
the NBA, for for better or for worse.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
I just wish the NBA had no face.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Uh you want a faceless product, I get it, leall.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
If if it's his face, I'd rather it not be
any faith.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Okay, Papa Doaka's with us courtesy of Sweet James. How
about how about our guy DK Metcalf. He's pissed off.
He wants a new deal. The Hawks won't give him
what he's looking for, and now he wants to trade.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
And I thought it was funny.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
And I don't know if you noticed this or not,
but some of these reporters, man, they're they're they're they're
quoting agents for the source of their stories now and
giving him credit for getting contracts done because they're feeding
him news. And I think it was cheft. He came
out and said DK wants to go to a contender.
Oh really, Uh, because he'll end up going where the
biggest bag is. I mean, you can sell that stupid
to somebody else. I mean, he's he'll end up with
(12:44):
the biggest contract he can find, if it's on a
two and fifteen football team. But I wonder if our guy,
Pete Carroll will end up making a run to try
to bring DK to Vegas if he had, if he
had a good experience with him in Seattle. I think
he did, remember he took his shirt off at the combat.
For the guy, it seems.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Kind of like a volatile character a little bit slightly.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah, maybe it's fair, but not as much as he's
been in years past.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Whatever. But it's that's not an unfair assessment by you. Yeah,
I don't you know.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
I mean to me, the demanding of a trade and
all these different things, and the agents being involved with
the NFL information people, and the weird fight between the
one one foot tall guy and the seven foot tall
guy hit the Starbucks at the thing last week.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
I mean, all that was all.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
How about that God's But the funny thing is is
all of it is a lie. Like those guys were
fighting over whether or not. Tom Brady and Matt Stafford
met by chance in right in Montana or whether it
was an organized meet in Montana, and like.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
You know who that was? I was Jordan Schultz, Howard
Sonny knew how we filled.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
He's the Starbucks guy, right, it was a home game
for him. And he was also a foot taller than
Ian Rappaport, who is some by some reports has a
bit of a Napoleon complex. I could, I can't imagine why.
And then I know that Garafalo guy I heard was
like trying to inch up next to Rappaport to try
(14:13):
to help him. And then it would be like in
Nacho Lebra when he was fighting the two midgets with Yeah,
but anyway, the two bearded midgets. Yeah, but all of
that it was all a lie, right, Like that was
all just Jimmy Sexton manipulating. I mean, Sean McVay goes
(14:36):
on the radio the other day and they say, how
were you guys ever not close to getting Matt Stafford back?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
He said, no, no, we were. It was done.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
And it's like so Stafford's wife says some stupid stuff
and then the agent Jimmy Sexton, which he does very
well shopped Brown, a bunch of false information, got everybody
talking for I'm sure you guys wasted time on it.
Everybody talking about Matt Stafford for a couple of days,
and next thing you know, oh, he's going to be
(15:04):
a ram. The only thing that made sense in the
first place, he's actually gonna do. That's a football agent
taking the entire NFL media cycle on a like a
forty eight hour jog.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And none of it was true.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
They weren't ever gonna not be rams, and stuff like
that happens. It just I don't know. It makes me
not want to pay it to any attention to anything
ever would what would make you want to pay attention?
Did you watch Trump last night? By the way, security, Okay,
I enjoy obscurity. Did you enjoy last night? Yeah, to
(15:44):
a certain degree. I was watching it, and I think
I had the same conversation with my wife then everybody,
did you know? The thing started and everything'd been getting
all riled up, and my wife said, is this what
normally happened?
Speaker 2 (15:56):
And I said, no, no, it's not so iant.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Is this how it is? Like no, no, this isn't
how it is, but this is how it is now.
So but yeah, that's that's interesting. But I uh, I
don't do very many political things on the show ever. Really,
I thought you were venturing into that. Well, no, I
I hate all the local mayors. I hate the local mayors,
(16:28):
the local mayors in federal politics. Look, if people just
got involved with their local politics, it would it would
really improve all of our lives, especially in big cities
where we just put up our hands and say, oh, well,
they'll do whatever they can or will. And right now
in La we have three buildings at least downtown that
(16:48):
are high rises that are literally empty, covered into graffiti,
filled with the worst possible things you can ever imagine,
going Wow, They're like the Carter in New jack City
without the crack epidemic organization behind it. It's just mentally
ill hobos ruling the ruse. And we're talking about we're
not talking about three little houses in Detroit or something,
(17:11):
talk about three high rise buildings walking distance from the
Staples Center or Crypto dot Com, like right in the
middle of this, like right on display while you're driving
down the freeway.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Dystopia. Yeah, it's true, blythe blight.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I was sorry to hear that the pantry shut down
by the way, that was bad news. Well that's another
that's a union issue. Like the union, the people that
work there and their union made it so they'll never
work there again.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah, tell people what the pantry was all about.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
By the way, the pantry was a twenty four hour
restaurant that never closed. I had even stayed open during
the LA riots, which were real hot, especially in that area,
and the cops stood guard so they could eat, and
that you would go in there, you get free Coleslaw
and free bread. And most of the people that worked
(18:03):
there were ex cons. When I was younger, my dad
used to tell us that because they were, and the
guys would tell you their story if you asked, And
they literally never closed. And the restaurant was bought by
a big Angelino guy, former mayor named Richard Reardon, who's
actually very close with Pat Hayden. They were partners in
(18:24):
their firm and Reard and owned it and he died,
so it went into a trust and the trust wants
to sell it, but the union that represents the workers
try to put all these demands in and what they
can and can't do with the business, basically making the
business unsellable. So the trust just closed it. We're just trying.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
To sell this. We don't care.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
It's a building to us, you know, you know, covering
that Pac ten or Pac twelve tournament or whatever events happened.
Whoever was trying to help the workers at the pantry,
he did such a great job that the things shut down. Well, wall,
way to go, Bozo. Nice job, Einstein, Really well done.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Man. Yeah, your dumbass. Another icon' gone loser.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
All right, tail, go to the Golden Gopher downtown. All right, well,
I'll check out ice time. The Golden Gopher used to
be called the Sunset Room. It used to be owned
by Teddy Roosevelt, and it is LA's oldest liquor license.
I did not know if the check There's a liquor
store in the front, so you can buy a bottle
of Old Granddad on your way out.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
All right, enjoy Lebron and the Lakers the rest of
the year.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
Hey, yeah, sure off, buddy, Well keep you oppressed of
the DK Metcalf Okay, fine, then, oh my god. It's
a big fast receiver and he plays in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Wow, we will tell you.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Let me guess he doesn't pay his dues physically every
down so he talks the whole game. Okay, fine, then
you know what We're not gonna tell you. Jack, how's there?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Don't fine?
Speaker 3 (19:55):
See you man, We're talk in a week. Pet trust
bat eyes and ears closed, pet trusts banakas Hre Milan's
gonna hop on at five give us his thoughts on
the DK Metcalfe story. Petros won't listen because he doesn't
give a damn Coming up on ninety three three kJ RFM.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I don't give a live from the R and R
Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio. Now back to Softie and Dick
on your Home for the Huskies and the Craken Sports
Radio ninety three point three kJ R FM.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
I'm gonna pray to the to the Lord Grub, will
you please get DK metcalf ten legit targets per game.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
I think, Look, this guy, in my eyes is the
all time freak in the history of the clc X. Well,
we're gonna have more of that. By the way, I'm
fun with audio. That was uh was that July?
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (20:45):
When was the July July twenty sixth?
Speaker 3 (20:48):
July twenty sixth of twenty twenty four. That guy Ryan
Grubb is now in Alabama with Kaitlin Debor and DK
Metcalf today wants a trade.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
So yeah, well worked well the last six which part
worked well? The whole thing.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
I'm being sarcastic on both sides.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Yeah, oh, you love the hell out of here.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
We put a poll out on Twitter, by the way,
asking who do you blame more for the DK Metcalf situation,
DK Metcalf or the Seahawks. It's overwhelmingly DK Metcalf, about
sixty seven percent to thirty three percent people blaming DK Metcalf.
Who do you think Hugh Mellin's gonna blame when he
comes on the air.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Fial, I know I would bet a lie. I wonder
who it'll be. We'll find out.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
I'm surprised that it's that lopsided, Like I've I voted
without looking, and I voted for DK, and I clicked
on it, and I thought it was going to be
fifty fifty or maybe even a shade towards the Seahawks.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
So I was very surprised.
Speaker 5 (21:48):
There's and and judging by like my question I put
out on Twitter, like talk about what the DK Metcalf
legacy was, and it's it's like one hundred not one
D ninety percent negative on D.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah. Well, people are mad at him for sure.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
I mean Aaron Levine put a tweet out he's pissed
at him for this thing leaking on the Tyler Lockett
Day where he gets released by the Seahawks.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
And I mean I even mentioned that in the first
segment that I was annoyed by. That is, like you
kidd me.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
I mean, this is supposed to be a day to
kind of celebrate Tyler Lockett, you know, talk about him,
you know, get guys on the air yak about him.
And I guess we could still do that, but again,
like we said, I mean, you know, let's face an,
emotions run this thing, man, and people are all hot
and heavy about the DK deal, So I get it.
I just like I said to you earlier, Dick, I
just wonder, and Jackson want your thoughts on this too.
How much the next three or four years, what kind
(22:35):
of dictate the way people feel about this?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Right?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I mean, if DK Metcalf goes somewhere else and becomes
a first team All Pro wide receiver and just starts
killing it, I just wonder if people will look back
at the Seahawks and go, what were you doing.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Yeah, because clearly, I mean, I guess I'm also with Dick.
I just don't understand why this is. It's probably so
heavily in DK's favor because people are angry that they
came out today. But if the new if this trade
request had come out, I think, like three days ago
or three days in the future, I don't think the
hate for DK today, of all days, would be where
it is.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
I disagree with that.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
I think if it was yesterday, I think it would
have been just as I think people are pissed at
DK Metcalf. I think people people see this guy and
the lasting images of DK. Yes, there will be some positive,
lasting images like running down Buddha Baker, but the lasting
images of DK Metcalf are throwing helmets on the sidelines,
getting personal fouls, even though he didn't do a lot
(23:32):
of that this year. The lasting legacy and images of
DK Metcalf are predominantly going to be negative.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Well, see, for me, that's just not the case.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Like I guess, just me personally, I am gonna remember
these big moments, but more than anything else, it's what
you just said, Sofie, I'm gonna remember a wasted player
because honestly, the exactly wasted towns. But at the end
of the day, like it's what Hugh Mellon said, this
(24:02):
is a freak of all freaks, and like we couldn't
figure out how to use a unicorn of a player
like I feel like on twenty other NFL teams they
would figure out how to make this guy into a
Calvin Johnson type tier and we couldn't do it. And
that's what's gonna be my lasting memory is just, Wow,
we really felix Hernandez, this guy.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
I disagree with twenty I mean maybe five maybe five
with the right offensive coaches and coordinators in the right quarterback, I've.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Just just been such a run team. Yet, can you
imagine that?
Speaker 5 (24:36):
Like, envision if DK, let's say DK Metcalf gets traded
to Tennessee Titans, right, what do you think the.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Next three years is gonna look? That's good. They're a
run team. I would say not good unless they go
get a quarterback. And that's the thing. And there's not
twenty mancause quarterback.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Because we had a quarterback that's in the top twenty. Right,
We've always had a quarterback. DK's whole career, we have
had a top fifteen quarterback, haven't had a top five.
Most would argue we haven't had a top ten, but
we've had a top half of the NFL quarterback his
entire career. So there's at least half the teams that
have had more situations than we have.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
I agree with Dick that I think people would be
bitter no matter what. I do agree with Jackson as
well though that you know, my kind of my angst
is more towards the Seahawks than it is towards DK
Metcalf and Frankly, Dick, the numbers that you put on
the show on Monday kind of swayed me a little
bit when you said, hey man, the drops haven't actually
been that bad.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
I mean, look at his penalties last year. I mean
was moving in the right, he still didn't get the
targets of the catches of.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
The yards, you know, which which makes you wonder, why again,
why is it the offensive line?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Is it Geno Smith having a bad year?
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (25:42):
You know?
Speaker 3 (25:43):
I mean he's never had an offensive minded head coach
since he's been here. All of them have been defensive
minded guys. I mean, I you know, we talk to
you about that at five o'clock. But I do think
the next few years, at least for me, will dictate
in some ways, kind of like when Richard Sherman got
let go and the Seahawks didn't even bother Max the
deal you got from the Niners. If he would have
gone to San Francisco and become a first team all
(26:04):
pro corner, I want to say, what are you doing? Right?
Speaker 2 (26:06):
I mean, but again, this guy's twenty seven years old.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
But here's the thing for me that I think, really
we need to start kind of setting some expectations here.
I mean, look, we don't really have to. If they
don't get met then whatever. We're talking football, not polio.
For crying out loud. By the way, do you hear
Dysenterry's on the way back in Oregon?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
An right?
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Oregon? Let's say, yeah, typical Oregon, very right, very typical.
We're playing that on a Macintosh back in the eighties.
For crying out loud. Now apparently it's becoming a real
thing anyway.
Speaker 4 (26:34):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
DeAndre Hopkins for example, when and I think Dicky may
have been either twenty eight or late twenty seven when
he got traded from the Texans to Arizona. He was
coming off three straight years where he was a first
team All Pro wide receiver, and they basically swapped fourth
rounders with Arizona and then they got a second round pick,
(26:55):
number forty overall and David Johnson. That's what a twenty seven,
twenty eight year old DeAndre Hopkins, who was a three
time first team AP All American or a'll pro, that's
what they got for him. The DeVante Adams when he
went to the Jets, went for a third. Stefan Diggs
got traded twice. The first time when he went from
(27:17):
or excuse me, to the Bills from Minnesota, he went
for a first round draft pick, which was number twenty
two overall.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
A fifth, a sixth, and a fourth.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
But that was Stefan Diggs who was also putting up
some major numbers in Minnesota. So I don't know, man,
if DeAndre Hopkins at twenty seven, who's got three straight
you know, All Pro first team you know appearances under
his belt, is gonna go for a second rounder, what
is DK Metcalf gonna go for.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
I think at the most you can probably get a
second in a mid round pick. Frank Metcalf, I think
you're right, which is very right, which is very disappointing.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Second to fourth whatever Leachure reports throwing out one.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I'm loving though, Gino Smith and DK met Calf package
to the Raiders. God, you can get them, but you
can get rid of both of them in one fell step.
Speaker 6 (28:06):
Can get a first round for pick it for the
number six pick it was. Let me let me go
back and have the number six pick of the draft.
How about their second this year? In their first next year?
Speaker 4 (28:17):
I do that.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Yeah, They've got the thirty seventh pick, I believe in
the second round, so they have a high pick in
the second round as well.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Wow, Gino Smith and DK Metcalf for a second round
pick year, hand the money you saved.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Do it?
Speaker 5 (28:31):
Yes now, But I don't think you'll get that six pick.
But even just to get rid of Gino and DK
and free up all that money and get picks, I mean,
you're basically here's what you're saying. You're basically saying, our
d is for the most part set right, and we
just have to fix half of our team. And we've
got all the cap room in the world and many
(28:53):
many draft picks to fix one half of a football team.
I think you're in great financial shape, and I think
you're in great shape to compete this year because you
can go you can go cozy cakes conservative and win
game seventeen to sixteen with that defense and still get
the ten wins.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Who do you hate more? Dk metcalf for Jared Kelly,
Oh wow, no, I wow. Silence speaks volumes, my friend.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
I'm processing crap, processing the question because I.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Want, wow, how quick does your brain move?
Speaker 5 (29:28):
I wanted to make sure I didn't just blurt something
out right all I gotta do because you came out
of nowhere with that. I would say Jared kellenigger Jared
ke because Jared keill Nick didn't accomplish nearly what Dk metcalf.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Okay, thank you. You know what that took about.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
It took about twenty seconds to get to that answer,
which was about nineteen seconds too long.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
DK metcalf is would have been, I haven't disliked the guy,
but I have focused on the negative because I believe
there is more negative to focus on than there.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
It's positive and a lot.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Obviously, looking at your phone right now on polls and
social media, I am absolutely in the majority in this opinion.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
I think you've just liked them I think it's just
time to admit that. Pell It's it's okay, just just
where I don't like it.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
I don't you know me, Dave, I don't like any antics.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
I don't like guys with antics. But just say you
disliked them. It's okay. I dislike them as a person.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
I just.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
We're not talking about having to come over and baby
sit your kids.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
For God's sakes. You're talking about a football player. You
don't like DK Metcalf, and that's fine.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Wear it. I want to say it. Say it now?
Did you want DK Metcalf to re sign with the Seahawks.
I have thirty dollars a year. That's all the money
I mean I would have.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
I I absolutely saw the knowledge and the wisdom I
guess if you will in moving on. I mean we
we'd said that two days ago. We talked about this
on Monday at the Emerald Queens. So I absolutely see
the wisdom of moving on from DK Metcalf? Was I
not the one on Monday show that asked you, is
this the time and the place in Seahawks history with
what they need to do on their line of scrimmage?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Is this the time to be spending that much money
on a toy and I said no, and I was agreed,
right I did. I did agree with that, Yes, yes, so,
but I want you to say it. My name is
Dick Fane, and I don't like that game mcgaf. I'm
not going to say that. You know my take on
I hate his guts.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
We're gonna break textimonials next four nine, four or five one?
Speaker 2 (31:21):
What do you guys think of all this?
Speaker 3 (31:22):
To DK Metcalf wants to trade Tyler Lockett's gone the
crack and blew the roster up.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
I tell you what, Dick. By the way, you know
who loves today loves today? Jerry Depoto.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Yeah, because if not for this other stuff we're talking about,
Justin Turner just ripping their asses, man, And we'll talk
about that tomorrow with Bob Knight and go three twenty
It's time for our weekly conversation with college football analysts.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
But we have really struck gold.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
I think with this opportunity, what a day to have
this man on the radio show. Everybody wants his take
on every sports related topic because he is the king
baby of sports talk in southern California. What half of
the legendary fabled Petrosen Money Show in La The Prince
of pigskin one damn fine Greek American father of the Year,

(01:51):
Sweet James dot com once again, Sweet James dot com.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Hello, so much going on.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I almost feel bad because I don't want to interrupt
the big party going on down there. After your guy
Lebron topped the fifty Southern fifty Southern fifty thousand. How
do I say that fifty thousand point mark last night?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I feel like Trump in that interview. All right, get
it out, Get it out? Three two and one.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
After Lebron topped the fifty thousand point mark last night,
making NBA history us your thoughts, Well, I mean the accolades,
although impress it. I guess they've piled up for so long,
and he's been playing for so long kind of load
(02:38):
managing his way through all of this that it's sort
of like trash passing you in a river.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
At this point, it's like, oh, there's another you know.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
But yeah, look, the Lakers are really hot here in
town and nationally. It's I don't know why you would
need this, but it's helping the NBA out a great deal.
I know you guys aren't big NBA fans.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Some of us are.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
We will be as a collective yet again, when the
Sonics returned, what do you mean? I just when is
that gonna happen? Likely I'd say within the next three
or four years? Oh hell no, you want to bet? No,
I don't care. But it is funny like the mayor
and I mentioned this. I mentioned this to Dick not
(03:23):
long ago, right when we were doing the show. Was like,
when the mayor did that thing, he pulled out the basketball.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Right, Yeah, what do you make of that? I haven't
heard your take on that.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
By the way, there's no shortage in this world of
idiot mayors, especially of large cities, right, I mean Mayor
Quinby from The Simpsons seems like a godsend to a
lot of our towns. And it's kind of funny because
I thought about I mean, we've spent time together, not
not as much. We we are very familiar with each
(03:54):
other because we talk often, but we don't I mean
physically see each other very much.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I will rectify that in about a month and a
half hour. I can't get ready. But I remember.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Many years ago being in the car with you and
just saying something like, yeah, I need some coffee.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Is there a Starbucks or something.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
You were like, if that's Starbucks, I'm never gonna out.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
You were like.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
And I didn't even know, you know, like I didn't
even know about the Starbucks and that the guy sold
the thing, like I didn't care, you know. And and
it was really interesting to me because I came to realize, like,
you have a great sense of humor. You don't care
what people say about this or that. But people in Seattle,
(04:39):
they're sensitive about the basketball thing. They got screwed. It
was a great franchise that had a great identity and
a great history and a championship, and they took it
from you guys, and it's a terrible like nobody cared
here when the Rams left, right, and nobody cared when
the Raiders left. I mean, maybe a few weirdos, but
(05:00):
it didn't deeply wound the city. Sure, if you know
what I mean. And that Seattle Sonics thing is a
deep ass wound. And the fact that the mayor of
the city is so stupid and doesn't understand his own
people's psyche is amazing to me. But then again, our
(05:20):
mayor let the whole city burn down and was hanging
out in Ghana.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
What's worse.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Yeah, well, probably the thing well likely, I'd say you're
right about that. But I mean, here's the thing about
Bruce Harrold. I don't know if you know Bruce Harrold's
history are mayor, No, I don't care.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
He sounds like an idiot.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Well, he played He played linebacker at Washington back in
the day, back in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
He should know better than he's a sports fan.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Yeah, he's been an advocate for the return of the NBA.
It was like, Mike God, the guy just had a
brain fart. What Seattle mayor is going to go up
there and say, you know, I don't advocate the return
of the NBA, but I don't what do I know?
You mess with people up there about as all of
totally agree. Greg Nichols was the name of the mayor
(06:08):
who was on who was in office when they left,
and he was the idiot who agreed to let him walk,
and so well, David Stern says, this is the best
chance to get him back.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
And just like naive idiot.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
It's like being in Chicago and saying, God, you know
in that I'll tell you that New York City, some'm
exciting and Chicago what we have museums, we have culture,
we have plays, you know. I mean, it's just it's
not something you mess with people in Seattle. But as
(06:38):
far as the the whole NBA conspiracy theory, things go
and teams moving around and the ticking of the clock
and the shifting of the ground, it is for anybody
that actually thinks and maybe maybe this is maybe I'm
the idiot, Maybe I'm the conspiracy theorist, and I belong
with George Norri or Art Bell on.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Coast to coast overnight, Art Bell, May he rest in peace.
But wow, that's a name.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
If you believe like, look at what's happening around the
NBA right now, and look at the headlines about the Lakers.
Consider the fact that up until like maybe last I
don't know the stats up up past last night, but
the Lakers have shot two hundred and twenty two more
free throws and their opponents this year. You put all
that together and if people really, if you really believe
(07:28):
that Rob Palenka, Kobe's former agent, and this brain dead
idiot in Dallas that they're going to run out of
town did this deal under the silence of church for
months and no one knew this was happening at least weeks,
and somehow pulled off this trade. And since then in Dallas,
(07:49):
they've burned this guy in effigy, they put Luca in
a coffin, They've raised ticket prices, Anthony Davis is hurt,
Kyrie blew as acl I mean, and they have new ownership.
They're going to try to move that team to Vegas.
Right it was all I mean, it feels like no
Sperazu old Adam Silver was playing three D checkers. I
(08:11):
don't know if the Lakers are gonna win the whole
thing or all that, but they have momentum right now
and everybody's really pleased and happy with what's going on.
It's just very interesting to me that, oh wow, look
at and the other thing was right when it happened,
everybody wanted to say Lebron was involved, and then it
was like, oh my god, this was the only one.
(08:32):
He wasn't involved in all that stuff we told you
before you was a lie, right, and then all of
a sudden, like now that it's working out, yeah, you know,
you and I aren't the level of radio host that
Maverick Carter or Rich Paul would call up. But these
guys brag about it, you know, like because they have
such giant rabbit ears, the Lebron people. You hear Calhern
(08:53):
or Steven A or Dan Patrick even be like, yeah, well,
Maverick Carter called me and he wasn't very pleased with
what I said. It's like they have the biggest rabbit
ears in the world, and now all of a sudden,
their people, their media types are giving Lebron credit for
the train all of a sudden again because it's working.
It's to say that it's working that they've given, you know,
(09:14):
It's like, why is the distribution of credit so damn
important to Lebron because he needs to make it always
about him.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
It really does feel that way, or indirectly, you look.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
At people on Twitter and it's like, oh, Lebron finally
got the support he needed.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
It's the support he needed.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Is the best player in the NBA sent to his team,
That's the support. Dick and I got into a big
argument yesterday about this, and Dick doesn't like the Remember
the old Richard Sherman, don't you dare talk about me?
Interview with Aaron Andrews, right all that. So Dick's not
a big fan of that, and then that's fine.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
We got to be a fan of what.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
He doesn't like that Sherman did that after the game,
that he was all around up yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Which is fine.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
I mean the video of Sherman drunk throwing himself into
his in laws door.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Not exactly, We're not exactly.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
You know, football people are volatile people, you know, extremely volatile, right,
you know what I'm saying. Yeah, So I mean I
can't believe that that bothers. I mean, I like Dick,
everybody knows that, but I'm a real.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Wow what okay?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
But but all I'm saying is show no, I look,
but my point is, like it bothers me. Where like
people watch football, they are on the sidelines of football games.
They know the type of people that play football, they
know the violence that's involved, and then after a game win,
Oh my.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
God, this guy's way too aggressive. It's right.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
It's like hiring Steve's psychle Lions. Like we hired Steve's
Cycle Lions. That's great. Why'd you hire him because he's crazy?
We fired Steve's Cycle Lions. Why'd you fire him because
he's crazy? It's like, oh god, I love you. What
about Dick and Lebron? Oh, I forgot it ready. I
have no idea. We got new a little what well,
(11:12):
I got into an argument about you know, I'm like you,
I think he always tries to make everything about him,
and you know, Dick's point is strategically yeah, but but
his point is that, you know, Lebron's never gone after
you know, an opponent or a teammate.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
I guess the way Sherman did or whatever. After that
game you're.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Talking about, he attacked Kevin Love on Twitter for his
mental ill illness issues.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Okay, well there you go.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Yeah, so that so absolutely he has He's so tweeted,
and he attacked the Lakers front office last year.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Maybe it's me around the trade deadline? You know, why is?
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Why are we constantly I don't remember growing up being like, God,
we got to get Michael Jordan some help.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Right, I just don't. I don't remember that, correct, you know?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
I mean it's it's I know, he's the face of
the NBA, for for better or for worse.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
I just wish the NBA had no face.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Uh you want a faceless product, I get it, leall.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
If if it's his face, I'd rather it not be
any faith.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Okay, Papa Doaka's with us courtesy of Sweet James. How
about how about our guy DK Metcalf. He's pissed off.
He wants a new deal. The Hawks won't give him
what he's looking for, and now he wants to trade.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
And I thought it was funny.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
And I don't know if you noticed this or not,
but some of these reporters, man, they're they're they're they're
quoting agents for the source of their stories now and
giving him credit for getting contracts done because they're feeding
him news. And I think it was cheft. He came
out and said DK wants to go to a contender.
Oh really, Uh, because he'll end up going where the
biggest bag is. I mean, you can sell that stupid
to somebody else. I mean, he's he'll end up with
(12:44):
the biggest contract he can find, if it's on a
two and fifteen football team. But I wonder if our guy,
Pete Carroll will end up making a run to try
to bring DK to Vegas if he had, if he
had a good experience with him in Seattle. I think
he did, remember he took his shirt off at the combat.
For the guy, it seems.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Kind of like a volatile character a little bit slightly.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah, maybe it's fair, but not as much as he's
been in years past.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Whatever. But it's that's not an unfair assessment by you. Yeah,
I don't you know.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
I mean to me, the demanding of a trade and
all these different things, and the agents being involved with
the NFL information people, and the weird fight between the
one one foot tall guy and the seven foot tall
guy hit the Starbucks at the thing last week.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
I mean, all that was all.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
How about that God's But the funny thing is is
all of it is a lie. Like those guys were
fighting over whether or not. Tom Brady and Matt Stafford
met by chance in right in Montana or whether it
was an organized meet in Montana, and like.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
You know who that was? I was Jordan Schultz, Howard
Sonny knew how we filled.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
He's the Starbucks guy, right, it was a home game
for him. And he was also a foot taller than
Ian Rappaport, who is some by some reports has a
bit of a Napoleon complex. I could, I can't imagine why.
And then I know that Garafalo guy I heard was
like trying to inch up next to Rappaport to try
(14:13):
to help him. And then it would be like in
Nacho Lebra when he was fighting the two midgets with Yeah,
but anyway, the two bearded midgets. Yeah, but all of
that it was all a lie, right, Like that was
all just Jimmy Sexton manipulating. I mean, Sean McVay goes
(14:36):
on the radio the other day and they say, how
were you guys ever not close to getting Matt Stafford back?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
He said, no, no, we were. It was done.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
And it's like so Stafford's wife says some stupid stuff
and then the agent Jimmy Sexton, which he does very
well shopped Brown, a bunch of false information, got everybody
talking for I'm sure you guys wasted time on it.
Everybody talking about Matt Stafford for a couple of days,
and next thing you know, oh, he's going to be
(15:04):
a ram. The only thing that made sense in the
first place, he's actually gonna do. That's a football agent
taking the entire NFL media cycle on a like a
forty eight hour jog.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And none of it was true.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
They weren't ever gonna not be rams, and stuff like
that happens. It just I don't know. It makes me
not want to pay it to any attention to anything
ever would what would make you want to pay attention?
Did you watch Trump last night? By the way, security, Okay,
I enjoy obscurity. Did you enjoy last night? Yeah, to
(15:44):
a certain degree. I was watching it, and I think
I had the same conversation with my wife then everybody,
did you know? The thing started and everything'd been getting
all riled up, and my wife said, is this what
normally happened?
Speaker 2 (15:56):
And I said, no, no, it's not so iant.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Is this how it is? Like no, no, this isn't
how it is, but this is how it is now.
So but yeah, that's that's interesting. But I uh, I
don't do very many political things on the show ever. Really,
I thought you were venturing into that. Well, no, I
I hate all the local mayors. I hate the local mayors,
(16:28):
the local mayors in federal politics. Look, if people just
got involved with their local politics, it would it would
really improve all of our lives, especially in big cities
where we just put up our hands and say, oh, well,
they'll do whatever they can or will. And right now
in La we have three buildings at least downtown that
(16:48):
are high rises that are literally empty, covered into graffiti,
filled with the worst possible things you can ever imagine,
going Wow, They're like the Carter in New jack City
without the crack epidemic organization behind it. It's just mentally
ill hobos ruling the ruse. And we're talking about we're
not talking about three little houses in Detroit or something,
(17:11):
talk about three high rise buildings walking distance from the
Staples Center or Crypto dot Com, like right in the
middle of this, like right on display while you're driving
down the freeway.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Dystopia. Yeah, it's true, blythe blight.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I was sorry to hear that the pantry shut down
by the way, that was bad news. Well that's another
that's a union issue. Like the union, the people that
work there and their union made it so they'll never
work there again.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah, tell people what the pantry was all about.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
By the way, the pantry was a twenty four hour
restaurant that never closed. I had even stayed open during
the LA riots, which were real hot, especially in that area,
and the cops stood guard so they could eat, and
that you would go in there, you get free Coleslaw
and free bread. And most of the people that worked
(18:03):
there were ex cons. When I was younger, my dad
used to tell us that because they were, and the
guys would tell you their story if you asked, And
they literally never closed. And the restaurant was bought by
a big Angelino guy, former mayor named Richard Reardon, who's
actually very close with Pat Hayden. They were partners in
(18:24):
their firm and Reard and owned it and he died,
so it went into a trust and the trust wants
to sell it, but the union that represents the workers
try to put all these demands in and what they
can and can't do with the business, basically making the
business unsellable. So the trust just closed it. We're just trying.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
To sell this. We don't care.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
It's a building to us, you know, you know, covering
that Pac ten or Pac twelve tournament or whatever events happened.
Whoever was trying to help the workers at the pantry,
he did such a great job that the things shut down. Well, wall,
way to go, Bozo. Nice job, Einstein, Really well done.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Man. Yeah, your dumbass. Another icon' gone loser.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
All right, tail, go to the Golden Gopher downtown. All right, well,
I'll check out ice time. The Golden Gopher used to
be called the Sunset Room. It used to be owned
by Teddy Roosevelt, and it is LA's oldest liquor license.
I did not know if the check There's a liquor
store in the front, so you can buy a bottle
of Old Granddad on your way out.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
All right, enjoy Lebron and the Lakers the rest of
the year.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
Hey, yeah, sure off, buddy, Well keep you oppressed of
the DK Metcalf Okay, fine, then, oh my god. It's
a big fast receiver and he plays in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Wow, we will tell you.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Let me guess he doesn't pay his dues physically every
down so he talks the whole game. Okay, fine, then
you know what We're not gonna tell you. Jack, how's there?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Don't fine?
Speaker 3 (19:55):
See you man, We're talk in a week. Pet trust
bat eyes and ears closed, pet trusts banakas Hre Milan's
gonna hop on at five give us his thoughts on
the DK Metcalfe story. Petros won't listen because he doesn't
give a damn Coming up on ninety three three kJ RFM.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
I don't give a live from the R and R
Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio. Now back to Softie and Dick
on your Home for the Huskies and the Craken Sports
Radio ninety three point three kJ R FM.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
I'm gonna pray to the to the Lord Grub, will
you please get DK metcalf ten legit targets per game.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
I think, Look, this guy, in my eyes is the
all time freak in the history of the clc X. Well,
we're gonna have more of that. By the way, I'm
fun with audio. That was uh was that July?
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (20:45):
When was the July July twenty sixth?
Speaker 3 (20:48):
July twenty sixth of twenty twenty four. That guy Ryan
Grubb is now in Alabama with Kaitlin Debor and DK
Metcalf today wants a trade.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
So yeah, well worked well the last six which part
worked well? The whole thing.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
I'm being sarcastic on both sides.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Yeah, oh, you love the hell out of here.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
We put a poll out on Twitter, by the way,
asking who do you blame more for the DK Metcalf situation,
DK Metcalf or the Seahawks. It's overwhelmingly DK Metcalf, about
sixty seven percent to thirty three percent people blaming DK Metcalf.
Who do you think Hugh Mellin's gonna blame when he
comes on the air.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Fial, I know I would bet a lie. I wonder
who it'll be. We'll find out.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
I'm surprised that it's that lopsided, Like I've I voted
without looking, and I voted for DK, and I clicked
on it, and I thought it was going to be
fifty fifty or maybe even a shade towards the Seahawks.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
So I was very surprised.
Speaker 5 (21:48):
There's and and judging by like my question I put
out on Twitter, like talk about what the DK Metcalf
legacy was, and it's it's like one hundred not one
D ninety percent negative on D.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah. Well, people are mad at him for sure.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
I mean Aaron Levine put a tweet out he's pissed
at him for this thing leaking on the Tyler Lockett
Day where he gets released by the Seahawks.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
And I mean I even mentioned that in the first
segment that I was annoyed by. That is, like you
kidd me.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
I mean, this is supposed to be a day to
kind of celebrate Tyler Lockett, you know, talk about him,
you know, get guys on the air yak about him.
And I guess we could still do that, but again,
like we said, I mean, you know, let's face an,
emotions run this thing, man, and people are all hot
and heavy about the DK deal, So I get it.
I just like I said to you earlier, Dick, I
just wonder, and Jackson want your thoughts on this too.
How much the next three or four years, what kind
(22:35):
of dictate the way people feel about this?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Right?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I mean, if DK Metcalf goes somewhere else and becomes
a first team All Pro wide receiver and just starts
killing it, I just wonder if people will look back
at the Seahawks and go, what were you doing.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Yeah, because clearly, I mean, I guess I'm also with Dick.
I just don't understand why this is. It's probably so
heavily in DK's favor because people are angry that they
came out today. But if the new if this trade
request had come out, I think, like three days ago
or three days in the future, I don't think the
hate for DK today, of all days, would be where
it is.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
I disagree with that.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
I think if it was yesterday, I think it would
have been just as I think people are pissed at
DK Metcalf. I think people people see this guy and
the lasting images of DK. Yes, there will be some positive,
lasting images like running down Buddha Baker, but the lasting
images of DK Metcalf are throwing helmets on the sidelines,
getting personal fouls, even though he didn't do a lot
(23:32):
of that this year. The lasting legacy and images of
DK Metcalf are predominantly going to be negative.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Well, see, for me, that's just not the case.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Like I guess, just me personally, I am gonna remember
these big moments, but more than anything else, it's what
you just said, Sofie, I'm gonna remember a wasted player
because honestly, the exactly wasted towns. But at the end
of the day, like it's what Hugh Mellon said, this
(24:02):
is a freak of all freaks, and like we couldn't
figure out how to use a unicorn of a player
like I feel like on twenty other NFL teams they
would figure out how to make this guy into a
Calvin Johnson type tier and we couldn't do it. And
that's what's gonna be my lasting memory is just, Wow,
we really felix Hernandez, this guy.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
I disagree with twenty I mean maybe five maybe five
with the right offensive coaches and coordinators in the right quarterback, I've.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Just just been such a run team. Yet, can you
imagine that?
Speaker 5 (24:36):
Like, envision if DK, let's say DK Metcalf gets traded
to Tennessee Titans, right, what do you think the.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Next three years is gonna look? That's good. They're a
run team. I would say not good unless they go
get a quarterback. And that's the thing. And there's not
twenty mancause quarterback.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Because we had a quarterback that's in the top twenty. Right,
We've always had a quarterback. DK's whole career, we have
had a top fifteen quarterback, haven't had a top five.
Most would argue we haven't had a top ten, but
we've had a top half of the NFL quarterback his
entire career. So there's at least half the teams that
have had more situations than we have.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
I agree with Dick that I think people would be
bitter no matter what. I do agree with Jackson as
well though that you know, my kind of my angst
is more towards the Seahawks than it is towards DK
Metcalf and Frankly, Dick, the numbers that you put on
the show on Monday kind of swayed me a little
bit when you said, hey man, the drops haven't actually
been that bad.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
I mean, look at his penalties last year. I mean
was moving in the right, he still didn't get the
targets of the catches of.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
The yards, you know, which which makes you wonder, why again,
why is it the offensive line?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Is it Geno Smith having a bad year?
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (25:42):
You know?
Speaker 3 (25:43):
I mean he's never had an offensive minded head coach
since he's been here. All of them have been defensive
minded guys. I mean, I you know, we talk to
you about that at five o'clock. But I do think
the next few years, at least for me, will dictate
in some ways, kind of like when Richard Sherman got
let go and the Seahawks didn't even bother Max the
deal you got from the Niners. If he would have
gone to San Francisco and become a first team all
(26:04):
pro corner, I want to say, what are you doing? Right?
Speaker 2 (26:06):
I mean, but again, this guy's twenty seven years old.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
But here's the thing for me that I think, really
we need to start kind of setting some expectations here.
I mean, look, we don't really have to. If they
don't get met then whatever. We're talking football, not polio.
For crying out loud. By the way, do you hear
Dysenterry's on the way back in Oregon?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
An right?
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Oregon? Let's say, yeah, typical Oregon, very right, very typical.
We're playing that on a Macintosh back in the eighties.
For crying out loud. Now apparently it's becoming a real
thing anyway.
Speaker 4 (26:34):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
DeAndre Hopkins for example, when and I think Dicky may
have been either twenty eight or late twenty seven when
he got traded from the Texans to Arizona. He was
coming off three straight years where he was a first
team All Pro wide receiver, and they basically swapped fourth
rounders with Arizona and then they got a second round pick,
(26:55):
number forty overall and David Johnson. That's what a twenty seven,
twenty eight year old DeAndre Hopkins, who was a three
time first team AP All American or a'll pro, that's
what they got for him. The DeVante Adams when he
went to the Jets, went for a third. Stefan Diggs
got traded twice. The first time when he went from
(27:17):
or excuse me, to the Bills from Minnesota, he went
for a first round draft pick, which was number twenty
two overall.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
A fifth, a sixth, and a fourth.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
But that was Stefan Diggs who was also putting up
some major numbers in Minnesota. So I don't know, man,
if DeAndre Hopkins at twenty seven, who's got three straight
you know, All Pro first team you know appearances under
his belt, is gonna go for a second rounder, what
is DK Metcalf gonna go for.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
I think at the most you can probably get a
second in a mid round pick. Frank Metcalf, I think
you're right, which is very right, which is very disappointing.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Second to fourth whatever Leachure reports throwing out one.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I'm loving though, Gino Smith and DK met Calf package
to the Raiders. God, you can get them, but you
can get rid of both of them in one fell step.
Speaker 6 (28:06):
Can get a first round for pick it for the
number six pick it was. Let me let me go
back and have the number six pick of the draft.
How about their second this year? In their first next year?
Speaker 4 (28:17):
I do that.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Yeah, They've got the thirty seventh pick, I believe in
the second round, so they have a high pick in
the second round as well.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Wow, Gino Smith and DK Metcalf for a second round
pick year, hand the money you saved.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Do it?
Speaker 5 (28:31):
Yes now, But I don't think you'll get that six pick.
But even just to get rid of Gino and DK
and free up all that money and get picks, I mean,
you're basically here's what you're saying. You're basically saying, our
d is for the most part set right, and we
just have to fix half of our team. And we've
got all the cap room in the world and many
(28:53):
many draft picks to fix one half of a football team.
I think you're in great financial shape, and I think
you're in great shape to compete this year because you
can go you can go cozy cakes conservative and win
game seventeen to sixteen with that defense and still get
the ten wins.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Who do you hate more? Dk metcalf for Jared Kelly,
Oh wow, no, I wow. Silence speaks volumes, my friend.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
I'm processing crap, processing the question because I.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Want, wow, how quick does your brain move?
Speaker 5 (29:28):
I wanted to make sure I didn't just blurt something
out right all I gotta do because you came out
of nowhere with that. I would say Jared kellenigger Jared
ke because Jared keill Nick didn't accomplish nearly what Dk metcalf.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Okay, thank you. You know what that took about.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
It took about twenty seconds to get to that answer,
which was about nineteen seconds too long.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
DK metcalf is would have been, I haven't disliked the guy,
but I have focused on the negative because I believe
there is more negative to focus on than there.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
It's positive and a lot.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Obviously, looking at your phone right now on polls and
social media, I am absolutely in the majority in this opinion.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
I think you've just liked them I think it's just
time to admit that. Pell It's it's okay, just just
where I don't like it.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
I don't you know me, Dave, I don't like any antics.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
I don't like guys with antics. But just say you
disliked them. It's okay. I dislike them as a person.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
I just.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
We're not talking about having to come over and baby
sit your kids.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
For God's sakes. You're talking about a football player. You
don't like DK Metcalf, and that's fine.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Wear it. I want to say it. Say it now?
Did you want DK Metcalf to re sign with the Seahawks.
I have thirty dollars a year. That's all the money
I mean I would have.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
I I absolutely saw the knowledge and the wisdom I
guess if you will in moving on. I mean we
we'd said that two days ago. We talked about this
on Monday at the Emerald Queens. So I absolutely see
the wisdom of moving on from DK Metcalf? Was I
not the one on Monday show that asked you, is
this the time and the place in Seahawks history with
what they need to do on their line of scrimmage?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Is this the time to be spending that much money
on a toy and I said no, and I was agreed,
right I did. I did agree with that, Yes, yes, so,
but I want you to say it. My name is
Dick Fane, and I don't like that game mcgaf. I'm
not going to say that. You know my take on
I hate his guts.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
We're gonna break textimonials next four nine, four or five one?
Speaker 2 (31:21):
What do you guys think of all this?
Speaker 3 (31:22):
To DK Metcalf wants to trade Tyler Lockett's gone the
crack and blew the roster up.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
I tell you what, Dick. By the way, you know
who loves today loves today? Jerry Depoto.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Yeah, because if not for this other stuff we're talking about,
Justin Turner just ripping their asses, man, And we'll talk
about that tomorrow with Bob Knight and go three twenty
