- Lumberbuck is back! Have we been underestimating the Seahawks? Usually we are guilty of thinking our teams are better than the National folks give them credit for, but this time, we might need to be the ones to catch up. National talking heads are saying things like the Seahawks are at the front of the line as far as SB teams, and how will anyone defend them now? NFL has them #1 in their power rankings this week! We were positive this team would be better than the preseason talk and rankings had them listed, but even we couldn’t predict this. :30- Jorge Polanco declined his option with the Mariners and will test free agency, but the Mariners could still bring him back if the price is right. Murakami is the latest Japanese sensation to head to the US and the Mariners are being mentioned in every conversation regarding the corner infielder, what would it cost? :45- Kyler Murray has been sent to IR, but how did it come to this? From supposedly getting ready to start on MNF, to the IR in just days, is it really the injury or was Arizona just done with the former first-round pick?

It is Chucking Buck in the Morning Sports Radio ninety
three point three k j R FM. Yes, we have
a lot to do today. Ashley Ryan is here. My
name is Chuck Powelling. Back in the studio with us
today is a former Mariner.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Bucky Jacobson, the Lumberbuck.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
Of North Bend, Washington, has returned to the radio program this.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Wow, well it's going to be back. I realize I am.
I'm very far from a lumberjack or a lumberbuck.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
You're a new category lumber buck. Yeah, yeah, that's its
own thing.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
You decide what the category is.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Okay, all right, well I'll take it. I will just
say this. Those are the people that do that for
a living. Those are men's men. I was so tired
at the end of yesterday and my body was so sore,
and I'm I've you know, got myself in a little
better shape. I'm feeling good, but not good enough to
do that for very long. Like if if I had
(02:15):
a career change, that's one not the one I'm going
to choose, because I couldn't do it two days in
a row. Impossible. And I have a tractor to help
with some of the heavy stuff.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Uh huh.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Still, it's just a lot. That is a lot. So yeah,
I got a lot of stuff done yesterday, thanks to
say some time.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Though, by the way, a lot of different ways you
could have really cut out a lot of time, made
everybody in the family happy. You just take the tree
that fell in your backyard and put it in the house,
has your Christmas tree.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
We didn't have to chop it up at all.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
You're just like, hey, bear, take one end, yeah, and
then just can't take the other end.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, just exactly, and you just point yeah a little bit. No, no, no,
they're going to block the television left. Yeah, that's a
good idea.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Put it over here in this corner, and you didn't
have to chop up anything. You just take it from outdoors,
across your property, locking your road, and just turn it
into a festive Christmas tree. Old tann and bomb is here.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Oh, that's a great idea. I don't know what I
would do with the other one hundred and uh, I
don't know. One hundred and ninety five feet that wouldn't
fit in the house. I never thought about math.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
Yeah, well a roof, I mean there's a roof problem. Yeah,
iof No, I don't I think every house today then
we talk about this during the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Every house today should have have one of.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Those, especially around the holidays.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Or maybe we said stadiums. Oh that was making fun
of Detroit.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I think it was. Yeah, anyway, I'll get on that
because I don't really like my roof, so when I
do replace it, I will probably I put a retractable
onoden so I could put a two hundred foot tall
tree or so inside. I mean that's a lot of decorating.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
See, now you're thinking outside the box a.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Lot about time. Yeah, you wasted a lot of time.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
In that box for a long time, all.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
That wood shopping, because that's what our ancestors would have done, right,
I gotta think forward, be progressive. You could have solved
a lot of problems all in one fell swoop.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
And then after the holidays, then I could use it
as fire. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
I just skipped a very important extent recycling.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Not think about that, not even for a second. It's
pretty sad. Yeah, it is very sad. I apologize Santa
for not thinking of you first and foremost. But yeah,
it was a lot. I really think you guys should
have called in yesterday and came out that. Yeah, it
would have been really helpful. I mean you got it
(04:55):
all done, yeah, got it all done. Yeah, I mean
it's not all split that stuff going to take it
won't be ready to burn till next year. Maybe you know,
because it's green still, it's it wasn't supposed to go down,
so it's but it's bucked up into some smaller chunks
and set in a different pile where it's not one
(05:16):
of the piles that I'm splitting and using for this
year's heat.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Well that's just said you could go through all that
work and go through I guess that's terrifying day thing.
I mean, I remember in Arizon when I lived in
Arizona was my first house that I ever owned, and
I every night that the wind would pick up because
we'd have monsoons there's monsoon season in Arizona, and I
was sure that the palm trees that were on my
property were going to snap in half as I'm laying
(05:40):
there at night and either crash into my house or
a neighbor's house. And it really like bothered me. So
that's the I think that's the biggest issue is to
get through a day like that, go through the fear
of it, like what's going what's this storm going to do?
Do all of that work to clean it up, and
then all of a sudden, we have another storm last night. Yeah,
now I don't think it was as powerful, but man,
(06:01):
did it rain.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
And just like slamming the house more today?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh jeez, Yeah, it's uh, it's been. It's a thing.
I mean, now, these trees that we have. You've been
out there, you've seen some of these trees. I mean you,
you know, you and I together couldn't wrap our arms
around the trunk. Compared it to Sequoia yesterday.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Said that you needed to just cut a hole and
like make an arch and just drive through it.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Yeah, great for tourism. Yeah. Uh So that was that
night that it fell down. I mean it literally. I'm
When I say literally, I mean literally the second my
head touched the pillow bong, I heard like the the
crashing of this thing hitting the ground and I'm like, what,
My head's not that heavy. I don't know why I
(06:45):
made that big of a noise, and I knew it
was a tree that fell. Now, it didn't sound like
it crushed anything when it landed, so I kind of
thought it was it was gonna be Okay. Went out
there shining the flashlight and it's not a greatly so
I can't see real well what I'm shining at, but
I can just see the tree laying down right where
(07:06):
I parked my tractor right, and it's like, I typically
the wind blows the other direction. That's kind of why
it fell the way that it did because it's trees
are not they're kind of built to a stand what
the normal wind pattern is. So anyways, it I'm like,
oh no, not on the track. It couldn't. If it
would have wit a couple inches further, it would have
like crushed the tractor, like the engine part of the
(07:27):
tractor wouldn't have been good. So then I'm like, Okay,
I gotta go out and see what's up here. Call
the power company because our power goes underground from the
transformer station to our house, but then it goes above
ground right at the road and then just over to
our house, which is fine most of the time. Unfortunately
it did not. It was not fine. It ripped the
power down. So we called the power company. Hey, you
(07:47):
need to come out fix this if you can. And
yet then I'm trying to figure out the generator and stuff.
It's at ten thirty a night or whatever it was,
and the wind is still whipping. I mean like you
just kind of feeling like you're looking up at the trees.
Every other second. It's like, don't not another one's coming down, right,
because you do not want to be underneath anything coming
(08:07):
down out of the trees. At that point, it was
a catch it.
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Yeah, that's what we talked about yesterday. Why didn't you
just hold the tree up?
Speaker 7 (08:13):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I didn't you?
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Just you know, I've seen guys, I've finished. I've seen
guys spend plates and keep every single one of them up.
You could have just the lady like a lot of
them are going to fall, but if the one does fall.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
You you be there to catch it.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
People are talented. If I don't know, I just think
a good dad would do that. Yeah, yeah, I definitely
dropped the ball on that one. At least, yeah, I
need to step my game at least, actually, and I
get that out of this. At least you're finally acknowledging
your failures. Yeah, yeah, last you know, yesterday we had
a lot of hard work to do to pick up
your slack.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Yeah, so about that.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
So anyway, at least we at least you've learned a lesson, yes,
out of all a lot a couple of lessons actually,
And now we can move on.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
And now you can just pay for my therapy session.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Good good job group.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Yeah, thanks guys, we needed that intervention. Yeah, hands in team.
All right, Well, welcome into the radio show. We are
here to talk sports. All three of us back together
here for a four hour extravaganza. We'll take it till
ten o'clock. I'll map out that plan we have for
today's show for you here in a moment, But I
sort of wanted to start with Another week of the
(09:23):
National Football League season gets going tonight, Seahawks coming off
their most impressive win the entire nation. Talking about how
good the Seahawks looked, Chris Collinsworth going as far on
the broadcast Sunday of saying, put the Seahawks at the
front of the line in your discussions of best teams
in the National Football League.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Yesterday. We always it's an annual tradition.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
We do a Green Jacket draft once the NFL trading
deadline is over and all the pieces are set for
the rest of the season, so about the halfway mark
of the year, making our selections on who's going to
be the Super Bowl pick, and the Seahawks the team
we follow here locally, the team you follow most likely
if you're in your car is they were the sixth
(10:08):
overall pick in our draft, Chris Kid taking them sixth overall,
And so I've just you know, we've got ESPN power
rankings have them at number one in the National Football
League right now. We picked them sixth, Chris Collins says,
put them at the top of the line. I mean,
here we are following them on a daily basis. That
(10:29):
usually makes you as a show more apt to rank
them higher.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Are we ranking them too low? Did we pick them too.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Low in our draft yesterday for them to come off
the board at sixth? And that's a pretty good spot.
There's some really good competition this year. I don't think
there's a runaway. They're the best team in the National
Football League.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
But I wonder if.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
We did go too low taking the Seahawks sixth overall
in terms of Super Bowl favorites, Oh.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I would probably say no, I don't think it would
be too low. If it is too low, it wouldn't
be by much. I don't know if I could necessarily
put them. I mean the Eagles have I mean really
early in the season anyways, they didn't look all that great,
even though defending champs but there still is something that
goes with we just watched this team with mostly the
(11:17):
same players run the table, I mean kill it during
the regular season and then you know, find ways through
the postseason and the unknown of can the Seahawks team. Now,
what I'm seeing more often than not out of the
Seahawks is I think this team could go out. I
know this team can go out and play with anybody. Now,
whether or not they can go pull it off, we've
(11:39):
seen against you know, Tampa Bay for example, that they
couldn't didn't quite get it. Now, a couple of mistakes
or a couple of bounces go different here and there,
maybe that one turns out a little bit different. I
do think you still have, you know, to figure out
a way to come out on top of your division. Now,
ultimately you don't have to win the division to get
into the playoffs. I wouldn't be surprised if a couple
(11:59):
teams out of the division do. But no, I would
think in when you're raiding, you know, teams like the Eagles,
teams like the Buffalo Bills, teams like the Kansas City Chiefs,
I think that those teams probably have a little bit
even the Rams in our division. I think that they
have a little bit more experience with this their core
group of guys in the playoffs, and so I think
(12:21):
it would be hard. You can make the argument, but
it'd be hard for me to put them above those guys.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
Well, the National Football League is set up so that,
of course they can beat anybody in the National Football
League on any given Sunday. The question is have we
seen enough? And it sounds like some people have, some
people that get paid to analyze this for a living
and make these statements they've seen enough. Have we seen
(12:46):
enough to think that the Seahawks and a tournament against
the best competition that the league has to offer, can
they rattle off a three or four game winning streak.
Can they beat all of the best competition, you know,
in a sweep to get all the way to the
Super Bowl and potentially win it. It's kind of strange,
(13:06):
ashulely that I don't know if we felt that way
at the beginning of the year here, even in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
I don't know if I heard many show hosts or
analysts or read many articles even here in Seattle that
said this team's got Super Bowl granitas, And yet maybe
we need to catch up with the nation this time around,
the best in the nation the nation, and acknowledge that, hey,
the way they're playing right now, they can beat anybody,
(13:33):
and they might be able to beat a parade of anybody's.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Yeah, And I do agree, because I remember at the
beginning of the season, Yeah, we talked about how we
thought everybody was underestimating them and that, you know, and
the conversation was, oh, they're going to get more wins
than this, and we all agreed on that.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Eight and a half was the Las Vegas spread, yeah,
or the win total.
Speaker 6 (13:52):
And I think at one point they had it even
a little bit lower than that, and then they increased
it up to eight and a half. But people weren't
very high on the moves the Seahawks made in the offseason,
and they didn't have any proof that we made a
better team, and so I think there was all this uncertainty,
whereas we were more confident that we at least had
a better team than.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
We had last year. And now I would agree.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
I do think we are slow to catch on with
what they are saying nationally, and I wonder if part
of that is because you kind of protect try not
to be too biased, you know, thinking like, well, yeah,
this team's good. But I also don't think I've been
coming at it from a worrying about being too based perspective.
I've just been going along with what's been happening each game.
(14:30):
And then this last game, Yeah, they looked really good.
Were the Commander's bad, Yes they were, but it was
total domination.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Nobody has looked better in a game this year at
the National Football League the Seahawks looked against the Commanders. Yes,
Exactually it was total domination. I think maybe where people
are a little hesitant, even us, even in Seattle, is
is what we're seeing in Sam Donald. Really what we're
going to see for the rest of the year, right
because we've never seen a full season as a profession,
(14:59):
even as a collegiate. I mean, Sam Darnald didn't play
against the competition that he faced at USC the way
that he's playing right now against the best competition the
world has to offer. And if this is Sam Donald,
if we are observing what Sam Darnald has become and
what Minnesota helped build him into, and then we stepped
(15:20):
in at the exact right time to get him, I
mean he is arguably the best quarterback in the National
Football League the way that he's played in the first
half of the season. So if there's a reluctance, I
think to put the Seahawks at the front of the line.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
As Collinsworth suggests, they're in the line. If anybody's not
aware of it, they're in the line. Front of the line.
Clearly based off of our draft picks.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
The Chuck and Buck in the Morning Show doesn't put
them at the front of the line. And yet if
Sam Donald is what he's looked like in the first half,
you better believe they can be at the end of
the year of this line.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, well I don't. I think it would be crazy
to think they can't. And I don't necessarily agree with
I understand the perspective or the idea of people will
look at, well, where's your ceiling, where's your floor? Right,
and then quarterback being as important as it is the
reason they looked like the most impressive team just this
past week, maybe over the entire season as far as
(16:24):
anybody's concerned. What is in large part because of the
perfection in which he kind of played the position and
has done so just about every single game. He definitely
hasn't played anywhere near what people think the floor is.
And I don't know if that's fair to Sam Darnold
to necessarily continue to say, well, your first impression was
not really good back years ago with the Jets. He's
(16:45):
not the same dude. It's obvious he's not the same
player that he was there. He learned, he got a
lot better and has kind of risen from the ashes
of being a Jets quarterback. And so to me, it's like,
I give the dude credit for what he's doing right now.
I think obviously there's going to be a game somewhere
along the line. You would think that that where things
aren't clicking and next thing, you know, there's forcing some
(17:06):
things here and there, and how they respond to that
or if the defense can still keep them in it
to where Okay, you had a bad game for three quarters,
but you figured out a way to pull that thing out,
you know.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
So to me, it's I think he's already shown that.
I mean, they didn't pull it out because the defense
was so bad, but he went pass for pass with
Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Well that's what I mean then, Okay, So then if
it's okay, you go pass for pass, But then can
the defense find a way to make the stop when
you finally need the stop? Yeah, that's the whole thing.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Yeah they didn't that day, but I think we've gotten
plenty of evidence that the defense can play, can get
that done.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Well. Anybody can do it on any given day. It's
will you do it when the time when you need
to do it the most. So in a couple of
weeks when they play the Rams, I is that going
to be a tight game? Seems like it quite possibly
could be when push comes to shove. Are you going
to stand up? Are you going to be the team
that finds a way to win? Because, like I say,
in baseball, a lot good teams find a way to win.
Bad teams find a way to lose, And a lot
(18:01):
of times it does come down to, all right, we've
played some good and bad throughout this game, or both
offensive played great and neither defensive stepped up. Which one
steps up when you need it? And if this team
can do it, then yeah, I think there's very easily
we could be talking six seven, eight weeks from now,
getting ready for the playoffs, that this is the best
team in the league.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
I was thinking about our draft yesterday, because that was
the original question, right, did we value them too low?
And I at the beginning of the draft, I had
said to Bucky, oh, I'll trade you know, we both
wanted the fourth pick. I was going to take them.
If I'd had that fourth pick, I would have taken
them right then, granted only would have probably been up
one spot.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
I think that's the point of ye question, because I
think you were contemplating taking them at two. I was,
but thought I could get them in the second round
that's seven.
Speaker 6 (18:44):
I also thought everyone would think it was absurd that
I took them at two.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I was like, I want to that's our hesitation.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Because that's the block that we're putting in front of
us that some guys nationally, guys will usually accuse of
underestimating the Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
They're over that block. Yeah, they've seen enough. Yea.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Arnold's the real deal. This team's as good as anybody
in the National Football League.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
And yet there was there's a little.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Caution, yep, that we're all showing to put them at
the front of the line.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
And I think for very good reasons.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
But I do believe we can entertain right now that
they're right there with the Detroit Lions, right there with
the Philadelphia Eagles, right there with the Green Bay Packers,
right there with the Los Angeles Rams here in the NFC,
and maybe.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
As good as Buffalo and Kansas City and the AFC.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
Yeah, when Bucky was talking about with your pick, you
were saying like, oh, I don't know if I'm going
to do it. I thought you were going with the Seahawks.
That's how I went well number one with BUCkies. Oh,
with BUCkies. When he said when he took the Chiefs instead,
I thought he was preparing to take the Seahawks, and I.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
Went, oh, and then Kid took it, and then Kid
number six. All right, let's find out what's on tap
for the rest of the show today.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
What's on test?
Speaker 1 (19:55):
What's on test?
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Seahawks Cardinals This Sunday twelve man roundtable today from eight
to nine with Hugh Millen and Greg Bell. We'll talk
about the addition of sh Rashid Shahed, who will wear
number twenty two like he did in New Orleans. And
we'll play this Sunday against the Cardinals. Kyler Murray won't
play this week. He won't play for another four weeks.
The Cardinals put him on IR and so is Kyler
(20:18):
Murray done in Arizona. Another thing that we've talked about
throughout the week, we'll talk about it again today.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Thursday Night Football.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
The Las Vegas Raiders will be in Denver to take
on the Broncos. Mike Sando joins us every Thursday at
nine thirty our NFL Insider. We'll talk about that game
and everything else going on in the National Football League.
I don't know how many bron I don't know how
many Denver sports fans will watch the football game tonight
because Denver will be taking on you dub in college
basketball tonight.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Oh yeah, they'll all be watching that.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Yeah yeah, So I don't know, probably be low attendance. Yeah,
the Broncos game tonight, yep. So anyway, Denver the whole
city on the edge of its seat for their matchup
against you Dub on the college hardway right. Husky's football
team will be in Wisconsin to take on the Badgers.
Softy will join us talk about that At seven oh five.
(21:07):
Sounders and Minnesota United will play their third and final
match of the first round of the MLS Playoffs this Sunday.
Winner advances. You gotta favor the mad Scientists there. San
Jose Sharks embarrassed the Kraken last night six to one
the final score, Where did that come from? And the Mariners,
Jorge Polanco, no surprise, declined the mutual option to return
(21:32):
to the Mariners next year at six to eight million dollars.
It's still not even exactly sure what the offer was.
Polonga was like, I don't care. I'm not taking either
one of them.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yeah, that was confusing to read it.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
It is a little confusing, But we'll actually spend some
time talking about feels like there is a real attention
being paid right now to what the Mariners have planned
for this offseason.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
So we're actually going to get into that. Next.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
It's Chuck and Buck here on a Thursday Sports Radio
ninety three point three. Oh man, forgive me I didn't
mention and what's on tap because we have a momentous
occasion occurring on Chucking Buck today at nine o'clock. Two
(22:19):
local celebrities, so both of them have had a rabid
dream to excel in trivia their entire adult lives. Aaron
Levine Jeopardy Champion. It's going to be on the program
today at nine o'clock. Finally going head to head against
a guy that Ashley and I have to witness every week,
fight to keep beat Bucky.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
On the airwaves.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
He's wanted it his entire life, his own trivia show
built around him. We've delivered it for him here on
Chucking Buck in the Morning. So for these two with
this dream of just being viewed as trivia masters their
entire life, for them to go head to head today
and beat Bucky is going to be one of the
great moments in kJ R history.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Well are you playing one truth and one lie? Because
one person you just mentioned does love trivia? Aaron Levin
loves trivia? What are you talking about? And then the
other person you're speaking of? To keep this bit in
the show, that's not me? Okay, I remember our meetings differently.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I guess yes, yes, that is possibility.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Well, I don't know why we call it beat Bucky. Yeah,
because it's fun to beat someone at something that they
are really bad at. They're not really bad at it,
not really good at it.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
But I want you to beat Levine today.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
I want you, I just want you to know I'm
not going to rig it. You know that you do
give me the answer, even though I did consider it. Yeah,
let's I did consider it.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
It would be funny if every category was right in
your wheel house.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Now we're talking wheelhouse. It's gonna be in his wheel house.
Jacobson's favorite things.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, alarm go off.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Yeah, see, now you're talking these are trivia questions. I
will feel confident.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
In greatest MMA fights of all time. Yeah, stuff like.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
That favorite kind of Pendleton whiskey.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
Just to see the look on the smart boy's face.
I thought about doing that, but no, we're gonna try
to keep it on the up and up. But we're
gonna play at nine o'clock. It's beat Bucky featuring a
Jeopardy champion.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Wow, it's gonna be fun. He better bring it, Yeah,
he better bring it at nine o'clock today.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
All right, let's talk some baseball. Horiy Polanco made some
news yesterday. It was the deadline, or today's the deadline. Actually,
MLB free agents can start signing today, Trades can start
being consummated as well, and so today's sort of the
official official launch of the hot stove season. So you
(24:59):
didn't have to wait very long. The offseason is here
for the Mariners, all of Major League baseball, but teams
that had options, whether it was player options, team options,
or mutual options, had until today to decide whether or
not they were going to cash those in. Obviously, the
Mariners would have loved for Hore Polonko to say, I'll
take even half of what we agreed to mutually for
(25:21):
this upcoming year, But no, Hora Polonko, coming off a
terrific season, some would argue his best season of his
career statistically, he definitely had the hammer in this situation
and said, hey, look, I came back here, it worked
out for me, but I'm not going to re sign
for a mutual option of one year six to eight
million dollars. I can make a whole lot more than
(25:43):
that on the open market. And so no surprise here.
By the way, Garber wasn't a surprise that he wasn't
cap Munjos, wasn't a surprise that he was kept at
his number. Were not a surprise here that Hora Polonko said,
I'd like to stay with Seattle, but certainly I'm not
going to stay at that figure would throw me off
of the roof.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah, well, I mean I think that the I think
the idea of I mean we know the second basically
that you could start doing things right after the World
Series concluded. You know, they're like, hey, Garb, see later.
The fact that we didn't find this out until yesterday
leads me down the idea of that they were talking right,
they were having conversations. I don't think it was like,
(26:23):
we hadn't thought about this, we should maybe, you know,
put our brains together and have a conversation. What do
you think about Jorge Plonco. And that they just had
that conversation yesterday, I think it just came to whatever
conversations they were having probably were falling short mine would.
I would imagine to me it would be Justin and
Jerry saying, hey, dude, great year. We would love to
(26:43):
have you back. We understand you're not going to take
the you know, the mutual option. That basically the way
in which that worked was you had a really bad
year last season, you went and tested the market. Everybody
was kind of saying, hey, your market value is not
that good considering what you did. He said, hey, we'd
love to bring it back, And ultimately we kind of
(27:03):
gave a situation where if you just had a so
so year that maybe you just want to come back,
and you kind of have an opportunity to come back
and still make some decent money, but not that number
is not representative of what he did this year. He
had a bounce back year, one of his better years
of his career, ended up being an integral part of
(27:26):
our playoff run and the way in which the season
went down. So to me, it just made sense. And
yet they couldn't figure out a number. I'm assuming that
they threw some stuff around to one another. The idea
is you try to keep him from getting to free agency.
So I'm sure they spent the week, they've spent the
last couple of weeks saying, is there a number that
we can reach before you that convinces you to not
(27:48):
test the market and to lock you up because we
do want to keep you. And they couldn't reach that.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
That's why Hore gave it till last night to try
to figure that out. So he's going to test the
market to a degree, but maybe we still end up
having the best and even if we don't actually a
close enough offer that his love for this team and
the season they're coming off of, I would imagine it's ballpark.
Two years twenty five, two years, twenty six million dollars
would be able to get it done.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
And I'm sure Horay Polanco's agent is telling him, we
think we can get more.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Yeah, and you know if obviously, I think for what
Jorge went through two years ago and how terrible it was,
and how well he did this last year, and he
was able to prove it to himself, he was able
to prove it to the Mariners. I think, I think
more importantly to himself just to say like, okay, yes
I still can play baseball.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
I am not what I was last year.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
So maybe also in his mind, he's interested in just
seeing what his value is on the market after trying
it last year and it didn't go well.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Yeah, well, well, I mean we'll see.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
I think there's a good chance that Polonko's coming back
in a Mariner uniform this year. And look, I mean
there were stories yesterday, people are reporting and you never
know what to believe, saying the Mariners are going to
be very aggressive in free agency. I don't know where
that rumor came from. I don't know if it's coming
from inside the house, but it certainly does seem to
(29:07):
belie their normal pattern of off season approach, but I'm
willing to be pleasantly surprised if they get very aggressive
this off season via free agency. I think the more
logical path is to try to keep Naylor and Polonko.
I think there is a way with the thirty thirty
five million dollars that you seem to have to spend
(29:29):
right now, that it all goes to those two guys,
and then we probably don't get really much more this
offseason and then just go with what's already in house.
Maybe tinker a little bit right there if they do
add a free agent. This is another interesting name out there,
Munataka moor Akami, who I brought up quite a bit
over the last couple of years. He's a power hitter.
(29:50):
He's basically the Japanese Geno Suarez. He strikes out a lot.
They are really worried he's going to have a low
batting average but possibly pop forty to fifty home runs
as a major league baseball player. He's a twenty five
year old corner endfielder, third baseman right now. But he
is somebody that almost on all of these lists that
(30:10):
they are trying to predict where players are going. The
Mariners are mentioned on Morikami's list. Of course, so are
the Dodgers, because the Dodgers get every Japanese player, and.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
So this is somebody that I think that we need
to keep our eye on.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Now, if you're going to keep Naylor and you're gonna
be able to re sign Polonko, that means based off
of studying the way that this ownership group and front
office have operated in passed off seasons, they usually tell
you what's going on going on, and if they're saying
that we're going to start at this threshold, then that
(30:45):
means somebody's got to go. If you can pull it
off that you have Naylor, Polonko and Morikami, who's projected
market value is ten years to twenty, then guess who's
got to go. Luis Castillo has got to go, and
for really anything, just to get his contract off the books.
So there is a path, but that path often requires
(31:08):
a little bit of pain.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
I don't want them to have to do any pain. Part. Oh,
I do want them to actually do pain. I don't
want them to look at it as pain. I want
them to look at it as look at how this
season went, and let's continue moving in the direction that you.
You took a giant step towards at the trade deadline,
and I don't mean, okay, then you add a couple
of pieces, try to drop a little bit of money
(31:32):
if you want to add a third piece, like what
you're talking about. And then when we find ourselves at
the trade deadline and we're in a good position again,
then we'll go ahead and make those moves necessary to
fill that thing. I kind of want more filling out
done during the offseason and then also do it at
the at the trade deadline. I know that's well, I
(31:52):
know that well. I'm just hoping that they maybe have
a shift because you're in a different position than you
have been in your past, right, You're in a position
now where, really you have been a playoff contending team
for the last five years or so, and you're you're winning,
and you just got right on the doorstep of breaking
through the glass ceiling that is the World Series. It's
(32:14):
I want you to kind of shift it up, but
shake it up a little bit. Do some things that
are uncomfortable to you because you're not used to it,
because you can recognize that it's something that might come
back tenfold when it comes to how much money you
spend versus how much money you make?
Speaker 4 (32:27):
All right, Coming up at the top of the hour
headlines plus David's Softy Maler will join us for Thursdays
with Softy. But coming up next we'll talk about the
interesting decision the Arizona Cardinals are fighting over regarding the
future of their quarterback position. Sports Radio ninety three point
three KJRFM.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Let's me take it off like hackead. It's the sweet one.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
Prob Ben round Table today from eight to nine you
milling Greg Bell for a solid hour talking about the Seahawks,
talking about the matchup with the Arizona Cardinals. Certainly one
of the topics is going to be the quarterback position.
Announced earlier this week that it will be Jacoby Brissett
starting for the Cardinals against the Hawks and not Kyler
Murray uh. And then after wild speculation about what is
(33:22):
going on with Kyler Murray UH, with the with the program,
with the organization, the Cardinals just kept saying he's not ready.
And yet there was plenty of video evidence that showed
Kyler Murray at practice and not looking hobbled whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
So wild speculation.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Is running rampant throughout Phoenix throughout the entire country about
the status of Kyler Murray now and in the future
with the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
And so the we know we're gonna face Jacoby Brissett
coming up on Sunday, but certainly in Air Arizona. The
big question mark is is are they covering up for
just not wanting him around anymore?
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Did he have a setback?
Speaker 4 (34:07):
Nobody's getting the information they want, and so the speculation
is just running wild.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
Uh. The idea of this guy if there is a
foot injury, right, which I think there probably was one
to begin with, and yet if it's if it's still
is lingering. He's the He's probably more than any mobile
quarterback one that kind of needs to be the most healthy, right.
I mean, there's some other guys that are kind of shifty.
(34:34):
I'm thinking like a Josh Allen That is, is he's
like bigger and he's tougher to take down. But he's
obviously not as fast as a Kyler Murry. He's not
as shifty, he's not as much about oh, I'm going
to change directions. He's just kind of crafty in the
way in which he uses his his feet and so
to me, I can see how it's like, we can't
put this guy out there one he's not he's not
(34:55):
good enough that he can go out there and play
at eighty percent and be really useful to the team.
And so I think they're weigh in probably how healthy
is he and is him at anything less than one
hundred percent better than Jacoby Brissett, And I think they're
coming up with the idea of no, And so the
future is up in the air. I think that they
have so much guaranteed money for him that they probably
(35:16):
can't do anything right now. But the end might be
closer than it is, it's not that far away. I
don't have the answers to all of this.
Speaker 4 (35:24):
Doesn't sound like anybody truly has the answers, but I've
seen enough evidence to state this pretty clearly. He either
had a setback or he did not react well to
Jacoby Brissett starting over him, and that was the final straw,
and Arizona's like, we don't even like you, So I
mean for him to go from he's going to he's
(35:48):
preparing as the starter for this week's game against the
Cowboys on Monday night, and evidence showing him not favoring
a foot injury whatsoever in the practice that you can
see anywhere.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
It's all over the place.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
And then to suddenly the following week give Brissett the
start and then put him.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
On the ir.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
Yeah, so he was close, he was on track to
starting for you on Monday night, and then you make
the decision the following week, the following Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
That he can't. He's not going to be ready to
play for five weeks.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
That's the part I can't figure out.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Well, it's either, I mean, it's one or the other.
Speaker 4 (36:28):
Either he had a setback from he was close to
playing and had a major setback, or they decided we're
going to try to protect you, but you're not going
to play quarterback for us again this year. Our guys
Jacoby Brissett until Jacoby Brissett goes down.
Speaker 6 (36:45):
And that's what I think it is, because, yeah, they
were preparing him to start. Then they said, oh, well,
he might play some packages here and there throughout the
game once they'd announced that it was going to be.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
Breset, so they still hadn't fully ruled him out.
Speaker 6 (36:59):
And then it was now he's you know, now he's
not playing it all tonight and now he's going on
the IR. I think that they're protecting him and they
they essentially benched him without saying we're benching him.
Speaker 4 (37:08):
Maybe yeah, I mean yeah, I mean, I'm not ruling
out that a guy with a foot injury as a setback,
and it's just not right. But to go from Okay,
we think he's ready to play too.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
He's not gonna be ready to play for six weeks. Man.
Speaker 4 (37:22):
That doesn't That doesn't even add up. No, that did
an add up whatsoever. So I just gut feeling, and
I know enough people down in Phoenix and and I've
listened to enough analysis that they're done, and that Jonathan
Gannon and their general manager new general manager before they
are ultimately judged by the ownership group, that they want
(37:44):
to be able to draft their own quarterback this offseason
and and have their own guy that they believe in
rather than one they inherited that they never really saw
eye to eye with because he was so short. And
so I think that that's what is going on, But
I certainly can't confirm that. All right, Headlines Next plus

Well, Good Thursday morning to you. Welcome into the radio show.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
It is Chucking Buck in the Morning Sports Radio ninety
three point three k j R FM. Yes, we have
a lot to do today. Ashley Ryan is here. My
name is Chuck Powelling. Back in the studio with us
today is a former Mariner.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Bucky Jacobson, the Lumberbuck.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
Of North Bend, Washington, has returned to the radio program this.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Wow, well it's going to be back. I realize I am.
I'm very far from a lumberjack or a lumberbuck.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
You're a new category lumber buck. Yeah, yeah, that's its
own thing.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
You decide what the category is.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Okay, all right, well I'll take it. I will just
say this. Those are the people that do that for
a living. Those are men's men. I was so tired
at the end of yesterday and my body was so sore,
and I'm I've you know, got myself in a little
better shape. I'm feeling good, but not good enough to
do that for very long. Like if if I had
(02:15):
a career change, that's one not the one I'm going
to choose, because I couldn't do it two days in
a row. Impossible. And I have a tractor to help
with some of the heavy stuff.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Uh huh.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Still, it's just a lot. That is a lot. So yeah,
I got a lot of stuff done yesterday, thanks to
say some time.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Though, by the way, a lot of different ways you
could have really cut out a lot of time, made
everybody in the family happy. You just take the tree
that fell in your backyard and put it in the house,
has your Christmas tree.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
We didn't have to chop it up at all.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
You're just like, hey, bear, take one end, yeah, and
then just can't take the other end.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, just exactly, and you just point yeah a little bit. No, no, no,
they're going to block the television left. Yeah, that's a
good idea.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Put it over here in this corner, and you didn't
have to chop up anything. You just take it from outdoors,
across your property, locking your road, and just turn it
into a festive Christmas tree. Old tann and bomb is here.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Oh, that's a great idea. I don't know what I
would do with the other one hundred and uh, I
don't know. One hundred and ninety five feet that wouldn't
fit in the house. I never thought about math.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
Yeah, well a roof, I mean there's a roof problem. Yeah,
iof No, I don't I think every house today then
we talk about this during the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Every house today should have have one of.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Those, especially around the holidays.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Or maybe we said stadiums. Oh that was making fun
of Detroit.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I think it was. Yeah, anyway, I'll get on that
because I don't really like my roof, so when I
do replace it, I will probably I put a retractable
onoden so I could put a two hundred foot tall
tree or so inside. I mean that's a lot of decorating.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
See, now you're thinking outside the box a.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Lot about time. Yeah, you wasted a lot of time.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
In that box for a long time, all.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
That wood shopping, because that's what our ancestors would have done, right,
I gotta think forward, be progressive. You could have solved
a lot of problems all in one fell swoop.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
And then after the holidays, then I could use it
as fire. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
I just skipped a very important extent recycling.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Not think about that, not even for a second. It's
pretty sad. Yeah, it is very sad. I apologize Santa
for not thinking of you first and foremost. But yeah,
it was a lot. I really think you guys should
have called in yesterday and came out that. Yeah, it
would have been really helpful. I mean you got it
(04:55):
all done, yeah, got it all done. Yeah, I mean
it's not all split that stuff going to take it
won't be ready to burn till next year. Maybe you know,
because it's green still, it's it wasn't supposed to go down,
so it's but it's bucked up into some smaller chunks
and set in a different pile where it's not one
(05:16):
of the piles that I'm splitting and using for this
year's heat.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Well that's just said you could go through all that
work and go through I guess that's terrifying day thing.
I mean, I remember in Arizon when I lived in
Arizona was my first house that I ever owned, and
I every night that the wind would pick up because
we'd have monsoons there's monsoon season in Arizona, and I
was sure that the palm trees that were on my
property were going to snap in half as I'm laying
(05:40):
there at night and either crash into my house or
a neighbor's house. And it really like bothered me. So
that's the I think that's the biggest issue is to
get through a day like that, go through the fear
of it, like what's going what's this storm going to do?
Do all of that work to clean it up, and
then all of a sudden, we have another storm last night. Yeah,
now I don't think it was as powerful, but man,
(06:01):
did it rain.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
And just like slamming the house more today?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh jeez, Yeah, it's uh, it's been. It's a thing.
I mean, now, these trees that we have. You've been
out there, you've seen some of these trees. I mean you,
you know, you and I together couldn't wrap our arms
around the trunk. Compared it to Sequoia yesterday.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Said that you needed to just cut a hole and
like make an arch and just drive through it.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Yeah, great for tourism. Yeah. Uh So that was that
night that it fell down. I mean it literally. I'm
When I say literally, I mean literally the second my
head touched the pillow bong, I heard like the the
crashing of this thing hitting the ground and I'm like, what,
My head's not that heavy. I don't know why I
(06:45):
made that big of a noise, and I knew it
was a tree that fell. Now, it didn't sound like
it crushed anything when it landed, so I kind of
thought it was it was gonna be Okay. Went out
there shining the flashlight and it's not a greatly so
I can't see real well what I'm shining at, but
I can just see the tree laying down right where
(07:06):
I parked my tractor right, and it's like, I typically
the wind blows the other direction. That's kind of why
it fell the way that it did because it's trees
are not they're kind of built to a stand what
the normal wind pattern is. So anyways, it I'm like,
oh no, not on the track. It couldn't. If it
would have wit a couple inches further, it would have
like crushed the tractor, like the engine part of the
(07:27):
tractor wouldn't have been good. So then I'm like, Okay,
I gotta go out and see what's up here. Call
the power company because our power goes underground from the
transformer station to our house, but then it goes above
ground right at the road and then just over to
our house, which is fine most of the time. Unfortunately
it did not. It was not fine. It ripped the
power down. So we called the power company. Hey, you
(07:47):
need to come out fix this if you can. And
yet then I'm trying to figure out the generator and stuff.
It's at ten thirty a night or whatever it was,
and the wind is still whipping. I mean like you
just kind of feeling like you're looking up at the trees.
Every other second. It's like, don't not another one's coming down, right,
because you do not want to be underneath anything coming
(08:07):
down out of the trees. At that point, it was
a catch it.
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Yeah, that's what we talked about yesterday. Why didn't you
just hold the tree up?
Speaker 7 (08:13):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I didn't you?
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Just you know, I've seen guys, I've finished. I've seen
guys spend plates and keep every single one of them up.
You could have just the lady like a lot of
them are going to fall, but if the one does fall.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
You you be there to catch it.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
People are talented. If I don't know, I just think
a good dad would do that. Yeah, yeah, I definitely
dropped the ball on that one. At least, yeah, I
need to step my game at least, actually, and I
get that out of this. At least you're finally acknowledging
your failures. Yeah, yeah, last you know, yesterday we had
a lot of hard work to do to pick up
your slack.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Yeah, so about that.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
So anyway, at least we at least you've learned a lesson, yes,
out of all a lot a couple of lessons actually,
And now we can move on.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
And now you can just pay for my therapy session.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Good good job group.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Yeah, thanks guys, we needed that intervention. Yeah, hands in team.
All right, Well, welcome into the radio show. We are
here to talk sports. All three of us back together
here for a four hour extravaganza. We'll take it till
ten o'clock. I'll map out that plan we have for
today's show for you here in a moment, But I
sort of wanted to start with Another week of the
(09:23):
National Football League season gets going tonight, Seahawks coming off
their most impressive win the entire nation. Talking about how
good the Seahawks looked, Chris Collinsworth going as far on
the broadcast Sunday of saying, put the Seahawks at the
front of the line in your discussions of best teams
in the National Football League.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Yesterday. We always it's an annual tradition.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
We do a Green Jacket draft once the NFL trading
deadline is over and all the pieces are set for
the rest of the season, so about the halfway mark
of the year, making our selections on who's going to
be the Super Bowl pick, and the Seahawks the team
we follow here locally, the team you follow most likely
if you're in your car is they were the sixth
(10:08):
overall pick in our draft, Chris Kid taking them sixth overall,
And so I've just you know, we've got ESPN power
rankings have them at number one in the National Football
League right now. We picked them sixth, Chris Collins says,
put them at the top of the line. I mean,
here we are following them on a daily basis. That
(10:29):
usually makes you as a show more apt to rank
them higher.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Are we ranking them too low? Did we pick them too.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Low in our draft yesterday for them to come off
the board at sixth? And that's a pretty good spot.
There's some really good competition this year. I don't think
there's a runaway. They're the best team in the National
Football League.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
But I wonder if.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
We did go too low taking the Seahawks sixth overall
in terms of Super Bowl favorites, Oh.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I would probably say no, I don't think it would
be too low. If it is too low, it wouldn't
be by much. I don't know if I could necessarily
put them. I mean the Eagles have I mean really
early in the season anyways, they didn't look all that great,
even though defending champs but there still is something that
goes with we just watched this team with mostly the
(11:17):
same players run the table, I mean kill it during
the regular season and then you know, find ways through
the postseason and the unknown of can the Seahawks team. Now,
what I'm seeing more often than not out of the
Seahawks is I think this team could go out. I
know this team can go out and play with anybody. Now,
whether or not they can go pull it off, we've
(11:39):
seen against you know, Tampa Bay for example, that they
couldn't didn't quite get it. Now, a couple of mistakes
or a couple of bounces go different here and there,
maybe that one turns out a little bit different. I
do think you still have, you know, to figure out
a way to come out on top of your division. Now,
ultimately you don't have to win the division to get
into the playoffs. I wouldn't be surprised if a couple
(11:59):
teams out of the division do. But no, I would
think in when you're raiding, you know, teams like the Eagles,
teams like the Buffalo Bills, teams like the Kansas City Chiefs,
I think that those teams probably have a little bit
even the Rams in our division. I think that they
have a little bit more experience with this their core
group of guys in the playoffs, and so I think
(12:21):
it would be hard. You can make the argument, but
it'd be hard for me to put them above those guys.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
Well, the National Football League is set up so that,
of course they can beat anybody in the National Football
League on any given Sunday. The question is have we
seen enough? And it sounds like some people have, some
people that get paid to analyze this for a living
and make these statements they've seen enough. Have we seen
(12:46):
enough to think that the Seahawks and a tournament against
the best competition that the league has to offer, can
they rattle off a three or four game winning streak.
Can they beat all of the best competition, you know,
in a sweep to get all the way to the
Super Bowl and potentially win it. It's kind of strange,
(13:06):
ashulely that I don't know if we felt that way
at the beginning of the year here, even in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
I don't know if I heard many show hosts or
analysts or read many articles even here in Seattle that
said this team's got Super Bowl granitas, And yet maybe
we need to catch up with the nation this time around,
the best in the nation the nation, and acknowledge that, hey,
the way they're playing right now, they can beat anybody,
(13:33):
and they might be able to beat a parade of anybody's.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Yeah, And I do agree, because I remember at the
beginning of the season, Yeah, we talked about how we
thought everybody was underestimating them and that, you know, and
the conversation was, oh, they're going to get more wins
than this, and we all agreed on that.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Eight and a half was the Las Vegas spread, yeah,
or the win total.
Speaker 6 (13:52):
And I think at one point they had it even
a little bit lower than that, and then they increased
it up to eight and a half. But people weren't
very high on the moves the Seahawks made in the offseason,
and they didn't have any proof that we made a
better team, and so I think there was all this uncertainty,
whereas we were more confident that we at least had
a better team than.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
We had last year. And now I would agree.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
I do think we are slow to catch on with
what they are saying nationally, and I wonder if part
of that is because you kind of protect try not
to be too biased, you know, thinking like, well, yeah,
this team's good. But I also don't think I've been
coming at it from a worrying about being too based perspective.
I've just been going along with what's been happening each game.
(14:30):
And then this last game, Yeah, they looked really good.
Were the Commander's bad, Yes they were, but it was
total domination.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Nobody has looked better in a game this year at
the National Football League the Seahawks looked against the Commanders. Yes,
Exactually it was total domination. I think maybe where people
are a little hesitant, even us, even in Seattle, is
is what we're seeing in Sam Donald. Really what we're
going to see for the rest of the year, right
because we've never seen a full season as a profession,
(14:59):
even as a collegiate. I mean, Sam Darnald didn't play
against the competition that he faced at USC the way
that he's playing right now against the best competition the
world has to offer. And if this is Sam Donald,
if we are observing what Sam Darnald has become and
what Minnesota helped build him into, and then we stepped
(15:20):
in at the exact right time to get him, I
mean he is arguably the best quarterback in the National
Football League the way that he's played in the first
half of the season. So if there's a reluctance, I
think to put the Seahawks at the front of the line.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
As Collinsworth suggests, they're in the line. If anybody's not
aware of it, they're in the line. Front of the line.
Clearly based off of our draft picks.
Speaker 4 (15:45):
The Chuck and Buck in the Morning Show doesn't put
them at the front of the line. And yet if
Sam Donald is what he's looked like in the first half,
you better believe they can be at the end of
the year of this line.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, well I don't. I think it would be crazy
to think they can't. And I don't necessarily agree with
I understand the perspective or the idea of people will
look at, well, where's your ceiling, where's your floor? Right,
and then quarterback being as important as it is the
reason they looked like the most impressive team just this
past week, maybe over the entire season as far as
(16:24):
anybody's concerned. What is in large part because of the
perfection in which he kind of played the position and
has done so just about every single game. He definitely
hasn't played anywhere near what people think the floor is.
And I don't know if that's fair to Sam Darnold
to necessarily continue to say, well, your first impression was
not really good back years ago with the Jets. He's
(16:45):
not the same dude. It's obvious he's not the same
player that he was there. He learned, he got a
lot better and has kind of risen from the ashes
of being a Jets quarterback. And so to me, it's like,
I give the dude credit for what he's doing right now.
I think obviously there's going to be a game somewhere
along the line. You would think that that where things
aren't clicking and next thing, you know, there's forcing some
(17:06):
things here and there, and how they respond to that
or if the defense can still keep them in it
to where Okay, you had a bad game for three quarters,
but you figured out a way to pull that thing out,
you know.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
So to me, it's I think he's already shown that.
I mean, they didn't pull it out because the defense
was so bad, but he went pass for pass with
Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Well that's what I mean then, Okay, So then if
it's okay, you go pass for pass, But then can
the defense find a way to make the stop when
you finally need the stop? Yeah, that's the whole thing.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Yeah they didn't that day, but I think we've gotten
plenty of evidence that the defense can play, can get
that done.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Well. Anybody can do it on any given day. It's
will you do it when the time when you need
to do it the most. So in a couple of
weeks when they play the Rams, I is that going
to be a tight game? Seems like it quite possibly
could be when push comes to shove. Are you going
to stand up? Are you going to be the team
that finds a way to win? Because, like I say,
in baseball, a lot good teams find a way to win.
Bad teams find a way to lose, And a lot
(18:01):
of times it does come down to, all right, we've
played some good and bad throughout this game, or both
offensive played great and neither defensive stepped up. Which one
steps up when you need it? And if this team
can do it, then yeah, I think there's very easily
we could be talking six seven, eight weeks from now,
getting ready for the playoffs, that this is the best
team in the league.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
I was thinking about our draft yesterday, because that was
the original question, right, did we value them too low?
And I at the beginning of the draft, I had
said to Bucky, oh, I'll trade you know, we both
wanted the fourth pick. I was going to take them.
If I'd had that fourth pick, I would have taken
them right then, granted only would have probably been up
one spot.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
I think that's the point of ye question, because I
think you were contemplating taking them at two. I was,
but thought I could get them in the second round
that's seven.
Speaker 6 (18:44):
I also thought everyone would think it was absurd that
I took them at two.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I was like, I want to that's our hesitation.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Because that's the block that we're putting in front of
us that some guys nationally, guys will usually accuse of
underestimating the Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
They're over that block. Yeah, they've seen enough. Yea.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Arnold's the real deal. This team's as good as anybody
in the National Football League.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
And yet there was there's a little.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Caution, yep, that we're all showing to put them at
the front of the line.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
And I think for very good reasons.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
But I do believe we can entertain right now that
they're right there with the Detroit Lions, right there with
the Philadelphia Eagles, right there with the Green Bay Packers,
right there with the Los Angeles Rams here in the NFC,
and maybe.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
As good as Buffalo and Kansas City and the AFC.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
Yeah, when Bucky was talking about with your pick, you
were saying like, oh, I don't know if I'm going
to do it. I thought you were going with the Seahawks.
That's how I went well number one with BUCkies. Oh,
with BUCkies. When he said when he took the Chiefs instead,
I thought he was preparing to take the Seahawks, and I.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
Went, oh, and then Kid took it, and then Kid
number six. All right, let's find out what's on tap
for the rest of the show today.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
What's on test?
Speaker 1 (19:55):
What's on test?
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Seahawks Cardinals This Sunday twelve man roundtable today from eight
to nine with Hugh Millen and Greg Bell. We'll talk
about the addition of sh Rashid Shahed, who will wear
number twenty two like he did in New Orleans. And
we'll play this Sunday against the Cardinals. Kyler Murray won't
play this week. He won't play for another four weeks.
The Cardinals put him on IR and so is Kyler
(20:18):
Murray done in Arizona. Another thing that we've talked about
throughout the week, we'll talk about it again today.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Thursday Night Football.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
The Las Vegas Raiders will be in Denver to take
on the Broncos. Mike Sando joins us every Thursday at
nine thirty our NFL Insider. We'll talk about that game
and everything else going on in the National Football League.
I don't know how many bron I don't know how
many Denver sports fans will watch the football game tonight
because Denver will be taking on you dub in college
basketball tonight.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Oh yeah, they'll all be watching that.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Yeah yeah, So I don't know, probably be low attendance. Yeah,
the Broncos game tonight, yep. So anyway, Denver the whole
city on the edge of its seat for their matchup
against you Dub on the college hardway right. Husky's football
team will be in Wisconsin to take on the Badgers.
Softy will join us talk about that At seven oh five.
(21:07):
Sounders and Minnesota United will play their third and final
match of the first round of the MLS Playoffs this Sunday.
Winner advances. You gotta favor the mad Scientists there. San
Jose Sharks embarrassed the Kraken last night six to one
the final score, Where did that come from? And the Mariners,
Jorge Polanco, no surprise, declined the mutual option to return
(21:32):
to the Mariners next year at six to eight million dollars.
It's still not even exactly sure what the offer was.
Polonga was like, I don't care. I'm not taking either
one of them.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yeah, that was confusing to read it.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
It is a little confusing, But we'll actually spend some
time talking about feels like there is a real attention
being paid right now to what the Mariners have planned
for this offseason.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
So we're actually going to get into that. Next.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
It's Chuck and Buck here on a Thursday Sports Radio
ninety three point three. Oh man, forgive me I didn't
mention and what's on tap because we have a momentous
occasion occurring on Chucking Buck today at nine o'clock. Two
(22:19):
local celebrities, so both of them have had a rabid
dream to excel in trivia their entire adult lives. Aaron
Levine Jeopardy Champion. It's going to be on the program
today at nine o'clock. Finally going head to head against
a guy that Ashley and I have to witness every week,
fight to keep beat Bucky.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
On the airwaves.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
He's wanted it his entire life, his own trivia show
built around him. We've delivered it for him here on
Chucking Buck in the Morning. So for these two with
this dream of just being viewed as trivia masters their
entire life, for them to go head to head today
and beat Bucky is going to be one of the
great moments in kJ R history.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Well are you playing one truth and one lie? Because
one person you just mentioned does love trivia? Aaron Levin
loves trivia? What are you talking about? And then the
other person you're speaking of? To keep this bit in
the show, that's not me? Okay, I remember our meetings differently.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
I guess yes, yes, that is possibility.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Well, I don't know why we call it beat Bucky. Yeah,
because it's fun to beat someone at something that they
are really bad at. They're not really bad at it,
not really good at it.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
But I want you to beat Levine today.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
I want you, I just want you to know I'm
not going to rig it. You know that you do
give me the answer, even though I did consider it. Yeah,
let's I did consider it.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
It would be funny if every category was right in
your wheel house.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Now we're talking wheelhouse. It's gonna be in his wheel house.
Jacobson's favorite things.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, alarm go off.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Yeah, see, now you're talking these are trivia questions. I
will feel confident.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
In greatest MMA fights of all time. Yeah, stuff like.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
That favorite kind of Pendleton whiskey.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
Just to see the look on the smart boy's face.
I thought about doing that, but no, we're gonna try
to keep it on the up and up. But we're
gonna play at nine o'clock. It's beat Bucky featuring a
Jeopardy champion.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Wow, it's gonna be fun. He better bring it, Yeah,
he better bring it at nine o'clock today.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
All right, let's talk some baseball. Horiy Polanco made some
news yesterday. It was the deadline, or today's the deadline. Actually,
MLB free agents can start signing today, Trades can start
being consummated as well, and so today's sort of the
official official launch of the hot stove season. So you
(24:59):
didn't have to wait very long. The offseason is here
for the Mariners, all of Major League baseball, but teams
that had options, whether it was player options, team options,
or mutual options, had until today to decide whether or
not they were going to cash those in. Obviously, the
Mariners would have loved for Hore Polonko to say, I'll
take even half of what we agreed to mutually for
(25:21):
this upcoming year, But no, Hora Polonko, coming off a
terrific season, some would argue his best season of his
career statistically, he definitely had the hammer in this situation
and said, hey, look, I came back here, it worked
out for me, but I'm not going to re sign
for a mutual option of one year six to eight
million dollars. I can make a whole lot more than
(25:43):
that on the open market. And so no surprise here.
By the way, Garber wasn't a surprise that he wasn't
cap Munjos, wasn't a surprise that he was kept at
his number. Were not a surprise here that Hora Polonko said,
I'd like to stay with Seattle, but certainly I'm not
going to stay at that figure would throw me off
of the roof.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah, well, I mean I think that the I think
the idea of I mean we know the second basically
that you could start doing things right after the World
Series concluded. You know, they're like, hey, Garb, see later.
The fact that we didn't find this out until yesterday
leads me down the idea of that they were talking right,
they were having conversations. I don't think it was like,
(26:23):
we hadn't thought about this, we should maybe, you know,
put our brains together and have a conversation. What do
you think about Jorge Plonco. And that they just had
that conversation yesterday, I think it just came to whatever
conversations they were having probably were falling short mine would.
I would imagine to me it would be Justin and
Jerry saying, hey, dude, great year. We would love to
(26:43):
have you back. We understand you're not going to take
the you know, the mutual option. That basically the way
in which that worked was you had a really bad
year last season, you went and tested the market. Everybody
was kind of saying, hey, your market value is not
that good considering what you did. He said, hey, we'd
love to bring it back, And ultimately we kind of
(27:03):
gave a situation where if you just had a so
so year that maybe you just want to come back,
and you kind of have an opportunity to come back
and still make some decent money, but not that number
is not representative of what he did this year. He
had a bounce back year, one of his better years
of his career, ended up being an integral part of
(27:26):
our playoff run and the way in which the season
went down. So to me, it just made sense. And
yet they couldn't figure out a number. I'm assuming that
they threw some stuff around to one another. The idea
is you try to keep him from getting to free agency.
So I'm sure they spent the week, they've spent the
last couple of weeks saying, is there a number that
we can reach before you that convinces you to not
(27:48):
test the market and to lock you up because we
do want to keep you. And they couldn't reach that.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
That's why Hore gave it till last night to try
to figure that out. So he's going to test the
market to a degree, but maybe we still end up
having the best and even if we don't actually a
close enough offer that his love for this team and
the season they're coming off of, I would imagine it's ballpark.
Two years twenty five, two years, twenty six million dollars
would be able to get it done.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
And I'm sure Horay Polanco's agent is telling him, we
think we can get more.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Yeah, and you know if obviously, I think for what
Jorge went through two years ago and how terrible it was,
and how well he did this last year, and he
was able to prove it to himself, he was able
to prove it to the Mariners. I think, I think
more importantly to himself just to say like, okay, yes
I still can play baseball.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
I am not what I was last year.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
So maybe also in his mind, he's interested in just
seeing what his value is on the market after trying
it last year and it didn't go well.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Yeah, well, well, I mean we'll see.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
I think there's a good chance that Polonko's coming back
in a Mariner uniform this year. And look, I mean
there were stories yesterday, people are reporting and you never
know what to believe, saying the Mariners are going to
be very aggressive in free agency. I don't know where
that rumor came from. I don't know if it's coming
from inside the house, but it certainly does seem to
(29:07):
belie their normal pattern of off season approach, but I'm
willing to be pleasantly surprised if they get very aggressive
this off season via free agency. I think the more
logical path is to try to keep Naylor and Polonko.
I think there is a way with the thirty thirty
five million dollars that you seem to have to spend
(29:29):
right now, that it all goes to those two guys,
and then we probably don't get really much more this
offseason and then just go with what's already in house.
Maybe tinker a little bit right there if they do
add a free agent. This is another interesting name out there,
Munataka moor Akami, who I brought up quite a bit
over the last couple of years. He's a power hitter.
(29:50):
He's basically the Japanese Geno Suarez. He strikes out a lot.
They are really worried he's going to have a low
batting average but possibly pop forty to fifty home runs
as a major league baseball player. He's a twenty five
year old corner endfielder, third baseman right now. But he
is somebody that almost on all of these lists that
(30:10):
they are trying to predict where players are going. The
Mariners are mentioned on Morikami's list. Of course, so are
the Dodgers, because the Dodgers get every Japanese player, and.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
So this is somebody that I think that we need
to keep our eye on.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
Now, if you're going to keep Naylor and you're gonna
be able to re sign Polonko, that means based off
of studying the way that this ownership group and front
office have operated in passed off seasons, they usually tell
you what's going on going on, and if they're saying
that we're going to start at this threshold, then that
(30:45):
means somebody's got to go. If you can pull it
off that you have Naylor, Polonko and Morikami, who's projected
market value is ten years to twenty, then guess who's
got to go. Luis Castillo has got to go, and
for really anything, just to get his contract off the books.
So there is a path, but that path often requires
(31:08):
a little bit of pain.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
I don't want them to have to do any pain. Part. Oh,
I do want them to actually do pain. I don't
want them to look at it as pain. I want
them to look at it as look at how this
season went, and let's continue moving in the direction that you.
You took a giant step towards at the trade deadline,
and I don't mean, okay, then you add a couple
of pieces, try to drop a little bit of money
(31:32):
if you want to add a third piece, like what
you're talking about. And then when we find ourselves at
the trade deadline and we're in a good position again,
then we'll go ahead and make those moves necessary to
fill that thing. I kind of want more filling out
done during the offseason and then also do it at
the at the trade deadline. I know that's well, I
(31:52):
know that well. I'm just hoping that they maybe have
a shift because you're in a different position than you
have been in your past, right, You're in a position
now where, really you have been a playoff contending team
for the last five years or so, and you're you're winning,
and you just got right on the doorstep of breaking
through the glass ceiling that is the World Series. It's
(32:14):
I want you to kind of shift it up, but
shake it up a little bit. Do some things that
are uncomfortable to you because you're not used to it,
because you can recognize that it's something that might come
back tenfold when it comes to how much money you
spend versus how much money you make?
Speaker 4 (32:27):
All right, Coming up at the top of the hour
headlines plus David's Softy Maler will join us for Thursdays
with Softy. But coming up next we'll talk about the
interesting decision the Arizona Cardinals are fighting over regarding the
future of their quarterback position. Sports Radio ninety three point
three KJRFM.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Let's me take it off like hackead. It's the sweet one.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
Prob Ben round Table today from eight to nine you
milling Greg Bell for a solid hour talking about the Seahawks,
talking about the matchup with the Arizona Cardinals. Certainly one
of the topics is going to be the quarterback position.
Announced earlier this week that it will be Jacoby Brissett
starting for the Cardinals against the Hawks and not Kyler
Murray uh. And then after wild speculation about what is
(33:22):
going on with Kyler Murray UH, with the with the program,
with the organization, the Cardinals just kept saying he's not ready.
And yet there was plenty of video evidence that showed
Kyler Murray at practice and not looking hobbled whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
So wild speculation.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Is running rampant throughout Phoenix throughout the entire country about
the status of Kyler Murray now and in the future
with the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
And so the we know we're gonna face Jacoby Brissett
coming up on Sunday, but certainly in Air Arizona. The
big question mark is is are they covering up for
just not wanting him around anymore?
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Did he have a setback?
Speaker 4 (34:07):
Nobody's getting the information they want, and so the speculation
is just running wild.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
Uh. The idea of this guy if there is a
foot injury, right, which I think there probably was one
to begin with, and yet if it's if it's still
is lingering. He's the He's probably more than any mobile
quarterback one that kind of needs to be the most healthy, right.
I mean, there's some other guys that are kind of shifty.
(34:34):
I'm thinking like a Josh Allen That is, is he's
like bigger and he's tougher to take down. But he's
obviously not as fast as a Kyler Murry. He's not
as shifty, he's not as much about oh, I'm going
to change directions. He's just kind of crafty in the
way in which he uses his his feet and so
to me, I can see how it's like, we can't
put this guy out there one he's not he's not
(34:55):
good enough that he can go out there and play
at eighty percent and be really useful to the team.
And so I think they're weigh in probably how healthy
is he and is him at anything less than one
hundred percent better than Jacoby Brissett, And I think they're
coming up with the idea of no, And so the
future is up in the air. I think that they
have so much guaranteed money for him that they probably
(35:16):
can't do anything right now. But the end might be
closer than it is, it's not that far away. I
don't have the answers to all of this.
Speaker 4 (35:24):
Doesn't sound like anybody truly has the answers, but I've
seen enough evidence to state this pretty clearly. He either
had a setback or he did not react well to
Jacoby Brissett starting over him, and that was the final straw,
and Arizona's like, we don't even like you, So I
mean for him to go from he's going to he's
(35:48):
preparing as the starter for this week's game against the
Cowboys on Monday night, and evidence showing him not favoring
a foot injury whatsoever in the practice that you can
see anywhere.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
It's all over the place.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
And then to suddenly the following week give Brissett the
start and then put him.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
On the ir.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
Yeah, so he was close, he was on track to
starting for you on Monday night, and then you make
the decision the following week, the following Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
That he can't. He's not going to be ready to
play for five weeks.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
That's the part I can't figure out.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Well, it's either, I mean, it's one or the other.
Speaker 4 (36:28):
Either he had a setback from he was close to
playing and had a major setback, or they decided we're
going to try to protect you, but you're not going
to play quarterback for us again this year. Our guys
Jacoby Brissett until Jacoby Brissett goes down.
Speaker 6 (36:45):
And that's what I think it is, because, yeah, they
were preparing him to start. Then they said, oh, well,
he might play some packages here and there throughout the
game once they'd announced that it was going to be.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
Breset, so they still hadn't fully ruled him out.
Speaker 6 (36:59):
And then it was now he's you know, now he's
not playing it all tonight and now he's going on
the IR. I think that they're protecting him and they
they essentially benched him without saying we're benching him.
Speaker 4 (37:08):
Maybe yeah, I mean yeah, I mean, I'm not ruling
out that a guy with a foot injury as a setback,
and it's just not right. But to go from Okay,
we think he's ready to play too.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
He's not gonna be ready to play for six weeks. Man.
Speaker 4 (37:22):
That doesn't That doesn't even add up. No, that did
an add up whatsoever. So I just gut feeling, and
I know enough people down in Phoenix and and I've
listened to enough analysis that they're done, and that Jonathan
Gannon and their general manager new general manager before they
are ultimately judged by the ownership group, that they want
(37:44):
to be able to draft their own quarterback this offseason
and and have their own guy that they believe in
rather than one they inherited that they never really saw
eye to eye with because he was so short. And
so I think that that's what is going on, But
I certainly can't confirm that. All right, Headlines Next plus
