If you had Phillip Rivers return to the NFL on your 2025 bingo card, congrats! While it’s not official, Rivers worked out for the Colts last night and it’s highly possible he could un-retire and sign with the Colts who are dealing with a VERY difficult situation at QB. The Seahawks have faced their fair share of backup quarterbacks, but this week against the Colts is on another level. :30- The Winter Meetings are ongoing and activity is slow! - Are we happy with the trade return for Harry Ford? - Could Mitch Garver make a reduced-rate return to the Mariners? - The Mariners are being mentioned in Ketel Marte trade rumors. - CJ Abrams could also be a possibility… - What’s up with Murakami? He has to sign with a team by 12/22, the clock is ticking. :45- The Kraken dropped their 6th straight game, losing to the Wild at home last night and that may not have been the worst thing to happen!

Speaker 2 (02:28):
That's what it sounds like. The study Hall.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
I didn't know that that's who was coming out of Brighton,
but I guess now we do.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
We're gonna have to play that game again.
Speaker 6 (02:37):
Yeah, that is a fun game.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Yeah, that one would have made up. They're all real, Berger, Yeah,
that's real.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Surely to get me to buy that.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Freddie Cochesberger was a female.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
Okay, fred you guys are really ahead of the times.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Aaron Bright Now, yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah there was.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
They were Sharon, there was Freddie female female. Both were female,
Sharon and Freddie. And then Mickey was the sun. Oh yeah, yeah.
The Cochsbergers had parenting mister and missus because their last
name was Cocus No, no, because their name and their
daughter Sharon and the other one.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Like, how about Freddie Frederica.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, that's a classic name for a female in Brighton. Anyway,
good morning to you all. Welcome in.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
You will be held after class if you don't behave
as listeners today, so just keep that in mind.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
You have some responsibility here.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Ashley Ryan's here, Bucky Jacobson's here. My name is Chuck Powell.
We uh, we kept Bucky around. You didn't get washed
away in the atmospheric river.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
No, it was a bit touch and ghost. It's pretty pretty.
Uh the river has ripping right now. It's it's dropping,
so that's good. The rain slowed down a little bit overnight,
but boy, it was right up to the I mean,
you know how close to the river is to the
edge of my house.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
It was right there.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
I mean, the the aging river was just a foot
from the corner of my house. Big, a big tree
came down and got hung up on the bank. And
so now there's this big, giant root ball and you know,
the whole tree going down right beside our house, which
I was a little bit worried about it. Then kind
of pushing water over the edge, you know, I mean,
(04:19):
nothing's knock on wood, nothing. Our house hasn't had water
in it. It's a little bit higher than it needs
to be, just slightly. I mean, I think we're talking
in the inches, not feet, department of And so when
it does spill over the banks, it tends to go
in some lower spots and kind of turns us into
an island.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
And that's what was going on last night.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
So I woke up a couple of times and got
up just to make sure that, you know, our Christmas
presents weren't getting wet.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Okay, I don't want that, we don't need, yeah, you know,
And not to make light of it, but a lot
of people spend a lot of money for those pools
that look like they're overflowing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You
just have a big giant infinity pool in the backyard.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
Okay, there's big logs and trees floating down This one
bit more dangerous than these.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
You have to pay extra for that.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Usually that's probably true.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
That's called scenery. Okay, yeah, I think you should sell
right now, right now, Sinity. But make it natural.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
I did want to sell right now. No one would
buy right now. They would be.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Terrified, at least not until Thursday or Friday when the
rain is supposed to finally stop.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Geez.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Well, I am sorry.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
That is something that that's one last thing you need
to worry about right now.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
It's all good.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's all good water Mama refet.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Right now.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Oh geez, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Well, speaking of rivers, we may be facing one this
weekend as the Seattle Seahawks are have really topped themselves
this time. I mean, they do have an incredible skill.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I asked coach Holmgren about it yesterday during Monday.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Morning quarterback off the Air, like how talented are the
Sea Hawks to always end up facing backup quarterbacks? And
he said it's a heck of a strategy right there.
But Bucky and I used to talk about his off
the air quite a bit about how often it seemed
to happen, and I don't I don't know if it's
(06:17):
similar to other teams. I'm not sure, but certainly, I mean,
we faced Davis Mills in Houston, did we not? That
was during the baseball playoffs. I really wasn't paying attention
to that game we faced. We faced Cousins and not Pennis.
We faced Brosmer and not McCarthy.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
And this one takes the cake because the Indianapolis Colts
as of right now don't have a starting quarterback. They
don't have one. I'm not making that up. They don't
have a starting quarterback, not on their active roster. That
is healthy. Daniel Jones goes down torn achilles. We knew
(07:00):
at the moment he wasn't gonna play the following week.
He's out for the season. That is now official. What
I didn't realize, because I don't watch the Indianapolis Colts
every single second of every single day, is that Anthony Richardson.
If you remember, back in training camp, it was is
it Daniel Jones or Anthony Richardson? And that was supposed
to be a big camp battle, and so you know,
(07:23):
you see Daniel Jones go down and my immediate thought
in watching Sunday was, well, here's Anthony Richardson. These you
got an opportunity to play Anthony Richardson. And then they
announced no, no, no, no, he's on the ir from
an incident that happened off the field. I don't even
remember that story breaking. But they don't have Anthony Richardson.
(07:44):
Riley Lennard was their start, was their backup who came
in and filled in for Daniel Jones. He got hurt
during the game as well against Houston, and so they
have they have no healthy quarterback on the active roster.
Brett Rippen was on the practice squad, and I assume
that's who we're going to face is Brett Rippon on Sunday.
(08:09):
But but, and this is one of the most unbelievable
stories we've seen all year long and maybe for a
number of years. The Colts have brought in former Colt
quarterback Philip Rivers for a visit. Forty four years old,
hasn't played, He's almost eligible for the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
Yeah, it's gonna say Tommy retire in twenty.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
And then he's got to start that all over again
if he signs a contract. I don't think Philip Rivers
is concerned.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
About that, but he's on father by the way, Philip
Rivers is like, yeah, I'll do it.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
And so he's visiting Indianapolis and they're going to decide
whether or not to put him on the roster. Now
I can't imagine in a million years he could be
ready to start a football game coming up on Sunday.
But nonetheless, that's how desperate the Indianapolis Colts are for
a quarterback in the playoff hunt. They fell out of
the playoff picture this past week with their loss, but
(09:05):
at eight and five, they are smack dab in the
middle of a playoff race. And yet they are possibly
gonna have to to turn to Philip Rivers, Bucky's favorite player,
uh for the rest of their season. Incredible, incredible scenario
that has developed in Indy.
Speaker 5 (09:22):
It's I mean, I thought that I was done having
watched Philip Rivers. I mean, he's got ten kids, he's
a grandpa, like Ashley says, you know, he's I think
he was coaching his whole hometown high school team. And
it was like, good off into the sunset you go,
and now it's a there's a chance that that's where
they're at.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I mean literally, old.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Man, Yeah, yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Riley Leonard, you know, I remember him from college, and
yet he got dinged up coming in after the Daniel
Jones blue his achilles out and so you're like, oh, wow,
and now Brett rip ripping. I've seen he was on
the practice squad and did some preseason stuff with the Broncos.
I would think he would be the guy that is
the closest to be ready to perform in an NFL game,
(10:08):
and yet the idea of them thinking you got to
have more than one. I don't know how bad the
knee injury is for Riley Leonard. Now, it must be
bad enough that even if they're thinking, you know, Ripping
might get them through this week, they're not necessarily wanting to,
you know, rest the rest of their playoff hopes on
somebody that they didn't even have active, you know, that
(10:29):
they've kind of felt was a scout team guy up
to this point.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
So very interesting.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I can't imagine being that age and going out there,
and I mean to some degree, while he's a veteran
and once he figures out, I mean, he knows kind
of the offense to some degree. That's where he played
last before he hung it up. I think while he
could probably figure it out fairly quickly, between the ears,
the body part of it, Like, I mean, the game's
(10:56):
got to speedback up. I would think after you take
a couple of years off.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Yeah for sure, not to mention what four years off, yeah,
and then you are going to get activated in time
to possibly face Mike McDonald's defense. And there wasn't even
a defense that looked like Mike McDonald's the last time
Phil Rivers played right, And so I don't think that's
even in the realm of possibility that Philip Rivers is
(11:21):
going to sign today and be ready to play by Sunday.
But it does highlight just how desperate the Colts quarterback
situation became in an instant, in an instant, when Daniel
Jones went down and Riley Leonard might be healthy enough
to play, I mean he's dealing with a knee injury.
Obviously they were gonna have to sign some sort of
veteran backup this week, so this could be just you know,
(11:46):
it would bring Philip Rivers on to the staff and
we have him. But the fact that he's there on
Seahawks week incredible.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Well, and I think, you know, good for him because
every professional athlete, you hear him talk all the time
about how, gosh, I just want to play long enough
for my grandchildren to watch me play. You hear him
say that all the time.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Well, I mean he is somebody. I mean he crossed
my mind yesterday. We didn't get time to talk about
the Colts in the quarterback situation during Monday Morning Quarterback.
And the reason he crossed my mind is because his
name comes up every off season and he brings it up,
like Philip Rivers has hung on to this idea that
I'm staying in football shape, that if you need me,
(12:25):
I can play, And of all the people out there,
I would think he's a candidate for it. But to
have that happen after what three off seasons of saying that,
and for it to happen at age forty four and
in week fifteen of the National Football League season, I
mean Brett Farrer's name used to come up all the time,
(12:46):
like if you need me, I could do it. Obviously,
far's way past that, but Philip Rivers kept keeping his
name out there as a possibility, like I could go
if somebody called me.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I think I could still go.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
So he has a relationship with Shane Styke, and he
obviously has a relationship with the RSA family, having been
the Indianapolis Colts quarterback in the past. So I wasn't
totally shocked by it. But that does not underestimate the
craziness of this story.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Yeah, just anybody playing any sport, let alone being the
most contact one in the NFL at forty four years old.
Just man, that just gives me the weavy gebi's. I mean,
I have a hard time like getting out of chairs.
You know, I won't jump off the tailgate of my
truck anymore because it hurts too much. I can't imagine
having young, strapping Thoroughbreds chasing me down and trying to
(13:40):
smash me in my old brittle bones. No, I mean,
for what it's worth, I don't like that news is.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
If he can always say, like, if you don't sack me,
I'll give you a butterscotch.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Yeah, unwrapping right here, Scott, he used to give me
those right here, pocket right here. I mean I don't
like Philip or I didn't like Philip Rivers because he
was his mouthy and but he was a good quarterback
for Chargers, very Wine.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Very wine. But everybody loved and respect him though the football.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Yeah, and the opponents they got a kick out of
his trash talk because he never cussed.
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Yeah, yes, yes, and and yeah great if he came
back just cussing every other word. Yeah, I learned some
new trick boys, motherflower. Yeah, I mean, but it's the
idea of him keeping it open because he never won
a Super Bowl. I don't you know, he never even
got to a super Bowl, and so that, I mean,
I can see why a guy that has his story
(14:40):
to a career as he does is like, I don't
want to ride off into the sunset. I'll just kind
of I'll just put my horse over here and just
you guys know that I'm heading in that direction. But
if somebody needs me, But it is still crazy absurd
to think that that might be the way that they go.
But yeah, I mean, well, I mean it's trending toward
him taking a snap this year in the National Football leagueted.
(15:03):
I think that after a couple of weeks of practice,
you know, looking at what they have, perhaps being able
to lean on an experienced guy. I mean it's kind
of leaning toward him taking a snap before this season comes.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
To a close.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
And part of it is because it's so late in
the process. My first thought yesterday, when we didn't have
time to discuss it, was Derek Carr. He just retired.
I think you could probably he's another guy that didn't.
I don't think that he left the game feeling satisfied.
And he's got to be in better shape than Philip Rivers,
(15:38):
and he's he's got to be able to I mean,
he's not so far removed that the defenses are going
to look as fast as they're going to look to
a guy that's going to be out there in the
huddle with a walker. So I thought Derek Carr would
be a possibility. Maybe they called him and maybe he
said nah, not at this stage, there's no way that
(15:59):
I could jump right back into that.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
The other thought that I had was Russell Wilson. I
mean saw somebody else post that too.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
I mean Russell Wilson went to the Giants and said, hey,
cut me. You don't have to owe me another dollar.
You're out from underneath me.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Just release me.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I got a chance for legacy. I mean, it wouldn't
be a financially smart decision, but I have a chance
from a legacy standpoint to take over quarterback. I don't
think anybody else would sign me take over quarterback for
the Indianapolis Colts. I jump right into a playoff push,
and I might be able to save my career.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
I mean it's a good Yeah, it's a good call.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
And I think that the Giants would play ball with that.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
But it is just a matter of whether or not
Sierra would let Russell take that big of a pay cut.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Yeah, which I don't know if she would.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
I don't know if she would either.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
And I don't know Sierra and I might be just
overreading into it, but that's my ready.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
I don't know if she would.
Speaker 5 (16:54):
I mean, that would honestly be the probably the best,
as much as he doesn't look like the same Russ.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
So that you know, everybody around here got to watch.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Got to be better than Philip Rivers.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
He's got to be better than a forty four year
old that hadn't played in four or five years. I mean,
it's incredible.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
I mean, but there's really I mean, you you just
mulled over probably the best possible plans.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
I don't. I think Derek Carr is injured.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
I think that's why he didn't come back, because he
had to have a season injured. I think he had
to have surgery right on, like a labor him or something.
But regardless, there's just not very many options out there.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Well, if he would have done that, then he could
have kept making money. He retired, But he did it
on purpose. He did it to save the Saints. I
remember that part of the story. It was very commendable.
He's like, I could just stay and keep getting paid.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Instead, I'm gonna I'm gonna shut this down so you
don't have to pay me anymore, you know, while I'm
just rehabbing an injury. But yeah, I think I think
the Russell Wilson part would be very interesting, whether or
not the Giants. I don't know why the Giants wouldn't
do it. Yeah, I mean they can't trade them obviously
at this point this season, but they could they could
just let him go like, yeah, we don't don't need you,
(18:01):
we're not trying to Yeah, we're not going anywhere.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Yeah, I think they would be happy to it's just
a matter of where we don't want to pay you
to play for somebody else.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Right, it sounds like the plot to like the spin
off the football version of Major League, Like here's a team,
they're good, but then all of a sudden they just
have all this bad luck happen, and then they have
to go like hold open tryouts for quarterback and they're
gonna win.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Well, and by the way, c J.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Stroud did play against US, Jayde Daniels got hurt against US.
Jacoby Brissett played against US in the second game against
the Cardinals, So yeah, we faced our fair share of
backup quarterbacks, but nothing like this. I mean, I don't
know what we're gonna end up facing on Sunday against
the Colts. All right, let's find out what's on tap
(18:46):
for the rest of the show.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
What's on TEP?
Speaker 4 (18:52):
What's one? All right?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Seahawks Colts Sunday one twenty five. Greg Bell will join
us at seven o five this morning. He was traveling
back from Georgia yesterday, so we didn't get a chance
to get his thoughts on the game, and now suddenly
we get his thoughts here on this Tuesday about Philip
Rivers possibly.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Starting against the Seahawks. It doesn't even it's hard to
even form those words.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
He's sent that text last night, I just laughed out
loud because looking at it and writing seems so absurd.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Week fourteen is now in the books. The Los Angeles
Chargers one of the Philadelphia Eagles in overtime last night,
twenty two to nineteen. Justin Herbert gutted it out. Man,
I don't know this guy. He just I don't know
if there's a tougher human being in the world than
Justin Herbert. I mean, he already takes all that abuse.
I mean, he looked like Chubbs Peterson out there trying
(19:42):
to play quarterback. It looked like he had a fake
wooden hand that he would every time he fell, he
would hold barely high enough in the air so that
it didn't collide with the ground. I mean, I had
some skill right there. Yeah, that is some really unbelievable
physical awareness that he played that game with a broken
left hand, and somehow he even stiff armed a dude
(20:04):
at one point in the game that.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Would have a tough game too.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Afterwards, Jim Rball called him a god, no, a superhero
called him a superhero after the game.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
Yeah, it was pretty impressive for what he went out
there and did. And I mean to find a way
to pull that game out, And I mean it was
the toughness that it must be.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
I mean to have.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
He had said, surgery, so you know there's like an incision.
You know, they had to put plate and screws in there, right,
and then okay, here, just wear this glove with a
little bit of bandage stuff around it and go out
and get sacked.
Speaker 6 (20:34):
And oh yet he still gets a hard time for
his postgame interview. I was like, okay, let's just focus
on what he did.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Yeah, it's incredible.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
I'm at one point, Harbaugh said afterwards, if that was
a movie, I'd have turned it off because I wasn't believable.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
And yet Herbert just kept going.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Meanwhile, speaking of unbelievable, and why does this keep happening
to us as sports fans, because sports are amazing. Jalen
Hurts had two turnovers on one play that has never
happened before in the history of the National Football League.
He threw an interception. The guy the interceptor fumbled the ball,
Hurts picked it up, so he recovered a fumble and
then fumbled it right back to the charges.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
That has never.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Happened before in the history of the National Football League.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Incredible.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
The college football world is still buzzing about the college
football Playoff. We're gonna find more time talk about that today.
The Huskies will play in the LA Bowl this Saturday,
the very first bowl game, so we'll get that out
of the way college But the big news we're gonna
discuss today Rick new Isle. Is he really a strong
candidate for the Koog's head coaching position as vacated by
(21:37):
Jimmy Rodgers. Well, guess who joins us today at nine
o'clock and he's got to know the questions coming. Rick
new Isle will be with US today Live at nine
to talk about that rumor. It's Army Navy Week. Heisman
will be named on Saturday. The four finalists Pavia Mendoza, Saying,
and Jeremiah Love of Notre Dame, with Mendoza being the
(21:59):
heavy favorite. There, the crack and slump continues. They lost
to the Wild four to one. Wasn't as lopsided as
it sounds. It was actually two to one in the
Wild score two empty net goals, but it's a loss. Nonetheless,
everet fits you will try to solve things for us
today at eight thirty. It's also a crack and ticket Tuesday,
so be listening for your opportunity to win cracking tickets
every hour here all day long. On KJAR and the
(22:22):
Winter Meetings, Yeah, I guess they are continuing, but there
has been nothing that's happened in a day and a half,
so we'll tap into some of the rumors that the
Mariners are being involved in. On the other side, it's
Chuck and Buck getting started here on a Tuesday Sports
Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. I'm starting to wonder
if we should acknowledge Christmas being better than the Winter Meetings. Finally, Well,
(22:47):
that's that's where I'm coming from this morning. It is, yeah,
financially better. Hey, Christmas is great. Why don't we give
it more attention than we do the Winter meeting? Why
do we get all fired up for the Winter Meetings?
Speaker 4 (22:56):
Wouldn't you say we? You mean you?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
I mean the American pub.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
I think most people recognize that Christmas is.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Much better than the Winter Meetings. Oh and right now
witnessing this year for sure. Yeah, I always even put
a prospect or a new player under my tree right now,
and I have like a multiple presents under the tree
for Christmas.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Well, Mariners are involved in a lot of different conversations
out there, and so we'll dive into some of the
rumors here, and then every single insider that's there and
is killing like twelve hours of programming on MLB network
with no moves to react, is saying that it's about
(23:42):
the pop and maybe it doesn't happen in time for
the Winter meetings, but they all believe that the market
is going to move faster than it has in past years,
and certainly that there are a bunch of trades that
are being lined up right now. So Mariners are involved
a lot lot of things. They actually have pulled off.
The only trade it wasn't at the Winter meetings, but
(24:03):
it was right before the Winter meetings. We talked about
it a little bit yesterday, but Ford versus farrar E
the trade that we made with the Washington Nationals to
give up Harry Ford the prospect for jose A Ferrara,
a left handed relief pitcher. We did have a little
bit of time talk about it yesterday. I'll just quickly
(24:24):
reiterate my thoughts. I mean, I think that one, we
didn't get as much back for Harry Ford as I
thought we would or could. Two, there's certainly is value
in getting a lefty reliever who might be on the
verge of turning into something very useful for a major
League Baseball team that you have a lot of control over.
(24:46):
So I get why they were interested in him. And
number three, I think maybe you know, because we like
Harry Ford so much, we saw him be a prospect
for so long, maybe even we overvalued him because I
can promise you, Jerry, justin every general manager out there
is not taking less in a trade for a guy
like this was what they felt was the best that.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
They could get for Harry Ford.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
Yeah, and I thought that there was more, probably more
meat left on that bone, just but you're right, it
probably was more of us, like in the story, like
in the kid and then watching him, you know, kind
of keeping tabs on him as he was coming up
through the minor leagues. Now, obviously with you know, with
Cal flourishing into the dude that he is, then there
(25:29):
was no place for it. Right, You didn't know that
Cal was going to be the dude he is when
you ended up drafting Harry Ford a few years after
you you drafted him, and so there comes appointment. It's like, well,
let's get what we can for him. I mean to me,
there's I don't know for sure if he most certainly
hasn't reached the ceiling yet. He hasn't even had much
of an opportunity at the big league level. So to me,
(25:49):
it's like, well, I think you could have possibly kept
him around, let him, you know, catch her, you know,
once twice a week, and maybe d h if he's
swinging a little bit, and then you could probably his
stock could have rose and you maybe could have got
more of what we thought right, because I was picturing
him as as the guy that maybe is going to
be able to hit at the big league level and
catch and run. But the way it is now, he's gone,
(26:12):
and yet they did get what I'm thinking is going
to be a pretty good picture out of the bullpen
for us.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Ford said yesterday that he was sort of devastated by
the news, but also excited to be with a young team.
He's going to be surrounded by a lot of guys
that are young like him. There's no question about it.
And can build something there. So Harry's very nice, very
good young man, and so we wish him the best
and hopefully this jose A Fererra is what Jerry and
(26:38):
Justin think that he is, because I don't want to
go through Gregory Santos again. Mitch Garver, though, suddenly becomes
the talk about who's going to back up cal again
this year, And just when you thought you were out,
they pulled you back in.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
And I've had a couple of conversations with people on
Twitter about it, and I get the idea of if
they did bring him back, he's not going to be
make twelve million dollars a year, which he obviously didn't
live up to that over the last couple of years.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
I just don't want to see it anymore. He's a
good dude.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
I know he's respected in the clubhouse. He's one of
those veteran guys. I just don't want to see it anymore.
And I don't even care if it's once a week
in backup catching duty. I don't really care for him.
Behind the dish, the he knows the staff and so
I think he calls a good game. I don't think
he blocks particularly well. I don't think he throws particularly well,
and I can't stand the way that he approachesn't at bat.
(27:30):
And so, yes, there's other options out there, not that
there's a bunch of great dudes that are bringing a
lot to the table.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
But I'm sure you.
Speaker 5 (27:38):
Could go out and find somebody and pay him a
million bucks or a couple million bucks, and I wouldn't.
They probably aren't going to go up there battling for walks.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I don't think you got to worry about it, and
I don't think you have to worry about it because.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
I don't think he wants to come back here good.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
As much as he liked his as much as he
liked his teammates. I mean the death threat story from
a year ago. Believe me, he did not look happy
with anybody but his teammates. I think if he's going
to keep playing, it's not going to be at a
discount to a place where he and.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
His family got death threats. I think he's going to
move on. I don't think.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Yeah, I get why the Mariners might say, hey, we
need a backup catcher. We might as well go with
the devil we know in Mitch Garver at a much
reduced rate.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
But I don't think Mitch Garver's going to play ball.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
That's a good point. I hope not. I hope he
hates it here.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Trade Wise, there's Katel Marte rumors popping up. Sounds like
Arizona is definitely going to move Marte, who's had a
lot of injuries and yet has achieved superstardom with the
Arizona Diamondbacks since he left here a few years ago.
And yet Mariners maybe circling back around, might have some
interest in him if the Polanco thing falls through. Another
(28:52):
name I'm going to throw out there is CJ. Abrams,
who's a bit of a pill. It sounds like young
shortstop slash second baseman for the Washington Nationals, but also
kind of reminds me of a young of what katel
Marte was turning into. Not here, but once he got
to Arizona. That's the type of player he sort of
(29:12):
reminds me of. Plus he steals like sixty bags a year.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
C J.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Abrams apparently made available by the Washington Nationals. Could they
pull off two trades with the Nationals in a week.
Maybe that's a possibility, But I think all of this
is playing beat and not bringing Polonko back. But nonetheless,
if the Mariners do have a trick up their sleeve,
it could be for a Marte, could be for an
Abrams this week.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
It'd be interesting if they did the Kateel Marte. I
mean it's an upgrade. I mean even that's saying something
because the way Polunco hit and played last year. But
I mean, he this is a guy that's in the
MVP conversation a bunch of years.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
But you just a big money a star.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Yeah, you'd not as much as you think, not bad.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Well, it's not a bad.
Speaker 5 (29:54):
Salary, decent, decent money all the way through his age
thirty seven season. Which is that's a kicker, is the
Mariners are not. Stanton hates doing that. Yeah, they don't
want to say they don't want to be paying somebody
that's on the down, on the decline. And you've I've
you've seen it happen before you know, and and it
just doesn't typically work out. Most guys are not as
(30:15):
good when they're thirty seven, and if you're paying them
that because of what they were when they were twenty seven,
that's problem.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
But it seems like it's the wrong move. It doesn't
seem like it's a Mariner move for the reasons you said. So,
you paid Marte before he reached his peak, and then
you're going to get him on the downside as well,
plus all the injury history, plus their philosophy when it
comes to older players. It I don't even know why
we're involved in the rumors. It doesn't make sense that
we're involved in Katel Marte rumors, even though, as you know,
(30:43):
I love the guy. Yeah, no, and I and I
think it stinks that we missed out on Katel Marte's
outstanding career. Finally, just quickly, Munataka Morikami is somebody that
I'm still just fixated on. He's the latest Japanese phenom
that's coming over, the guy with the eighty power grade.
In the scouting report. They believe that he could hit
(31:04):
fifty to sixty home runs in the major leagues in
a season. But he does strike out a lot, which
is scaring off a few people and a few Mariner
fans about signing him. The only reason I bring it
up is because he has to sign by the twenty
second of December.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
I mean, he got posted.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
There's only there's a finite amount of time that Japanese
players have to negotiate a deal. So he's going to
make a decision here in the next thirteen days. I
think the Mariners have to at least be kicking the tires,
even though I haven't heard of any progress happening with Murakami.
But I haven't heard of any progress happening with Murakami and.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Any team to this point.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
But we know he's got a sign in the next
thirteen days, so we'll have that information here in the
next couple of weeks, all right, Coming up next on
the program, the Kraken struggles continue. Not even the high
jinks of two jackasses during the intermission could break them
out of it. Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
Speaker 7 (32:02):
Fly Oh, Captain by Captain on the power play thirteen twelve.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
So to go on the second we're tied one?
Speaker 1 (32:18):
What ever fits you on the call right here on
your flagship Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM of
Crack and Hockey. As Yes, last night, the Kraken did
score a goal, Jordan Everley scoring there, but that was
the only goal of the night. This team is in
a real slump right now. More on that in a moment.
(32:41):

The Cracking have now lost to what five in a
(33:02):
row at this point, six in a row now at
this point With their four to one loss to the
Minnesota Wild last night, certainly Lane Lambert is having his
roughest time as Cracking coach.
Speaker 5 (33:14):
Yeah, it's not good obviously. You gotta stop that skid.
Yesterday they gave up the second goal and then like
quickly ended up getting one back, and yet then they
call it back.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
I didn't know that was even a rule.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
I did either.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
Couldn't have your stick over the top of the goal
and knock it back down. He hit it off the
tenders back and it went in. But yeah, they're having
a hard time figuring out wayte to win right now.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
Well, especially for a team that was so strong defensively
to start the season, and it just seems like we
cannot figure it out.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
They are not.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Strong at anything right now, and so the struggle continues.
They will try to snap that losing streak tomorrow at
home against the Kings. By the way, it is a
cracking ticket Tuesday, So be listening for your chance every

get out of the house, you go watch the Crack

caller when you hear a sounder, particular sounder, We've already

Call us at two six, two eight, six ninety five
ninety five for a chance to win a pair of
tickets to see the Crack and play on December twenty
(34:26):
eighth against the Philadelphia Flyers. Did you see the two
knuckleheads last night skating around on the ice?
Speaker 5 (34:34):
I didn't see it during the game, but I saw
a video that Jess sent. Yeah, not the greatest video.
I don't know if she's got like a one megapixel
camera on.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Her phone drawing the first time, but then I went
back and it was bigger and normal. That's how your
videos come through too. I don't quite get it. Yeah,
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
It could be ever since the latest update my phones.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Man, here you go, Bucky. Here's a drawing. I don't
have video, but here's a drawing of Dick and he's
Softy playing tug of war on the ice.
Speaker 5 (34:58):
It was very similar, but I guess Softy one. They
looked like all of them fell.
Speaker 6 (35:02):
They looked like two baby horses walking for the first time,
and neither of them, neither one went after it.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I don't know what it's supposed to look like. Tim
Booth had said something about it was the worst tug
of war contest they've ever had, so I guess it's
it didn't look like what it's supposed to look like.
I think you are supposed to fall, and you drag
each other all over the ice.
Speaker 6 (35:23):
You're usually putting in like more of a like I'm
gonna throw my body to try to I mean it,
I've seen him before.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
This was not.
Speaker 6 (35:30):
This was like, okay, well I'm just going to bring
you with me over here and then you can come
with me over here. And then now I'm just gonna
grab the rope and we're gonna walk this way and
I'm going to put the ball in the Yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
Gotta be honest, I kind of would have approached it
that way because the last thing I want to do
is like slip fall on the ice and brust my
nose open. So I probably would have been just as
timid as they are. So I'm not going to really
criticize them. But in terms of showmanship, not really there No, no, yeah,
not exactly gladiator down there?
Speaker 2 (35:57):
No, are you not entertained? No or not No, not
anything at all.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
You guys tip tone around on the ice, bungee cord attached?
Speaker 1 (36:06):
No next, well, at least soft he's got bragging rights
for the rest of his life.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
He won't abuse that. No, no, not at all.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
I was on with Fame last night. He did congratulate
us on our Factor Fiction championship, but I don't think
he was serious.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Well.
Speaker 6 (36:22):
Their plan was to try to just go opposite of
us quite a bit and see if they could steal
victories that way, and they taught them.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
I don't think his heart was in congratulating us. You
probably know.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Yeah, they kind of dismissed it, like they didn't Dick.
Dick blamed it on Softy and Jackson not caring enough.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
That's what he blamed it on. I don't feel bad
for them at all.
Speaker 4 (36:39):
I don't either.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
We're champs back to back. By the way, he didn't
mention that last night, Dick. All right, coming up next
Headlines plus Greg Bell. It's about time we talked to
Greg Bell. Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ r

No real person. Yeah, girl, do you remember Foghorn Leghorn, Yeah,
that's what it sounds like.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
And the widow hen that had a crush on Foghorn Leghorn.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Fully Burgoff look exactly like her, acted like her. Everything
sounds like a part of that.

Fully Burghoff and Foghorn leg Yeah, yeah, they hung out
a lot.

That's what it sounds like. The study Hall.

We're gonna have to play that game again.

Surely to get me to buy that.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Freddie Cochesberger was a female.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
Okay, fred you guys are really ahead of the times.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Aaron Bright Now, yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah there was.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
They were Sharon, there was Freddie female female. Both were female,
Sharon and Freddie. And then Mickey was the sun. Oh yeah, yeah.
The Cochsbergers had parenting mister and missus because their last
name was Cocus No, no, because their name and their
daughter Sharon and the other one.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Like, how about Freddie Frederica.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, that's a classic name for a female in Brighton. Anyway,
good morning to you all. Welcome in.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
You will be held after class if you don't behave
as listeners today, so just keep that in mind.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
You have some responsibility here.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Ashley Ryan's here, Bucky Jacobson's here. My name is Chuck Powell.
We uh, we kept Bucky around. You didn't get washed
away in the atmospheric river.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
No, it was a bit touch and ghost. It's pretty pretty.
Uh the river has ripping right now. It's it's dropping,
so that's good. The rain slowed down a little bit overnight,
but boy, it was right up to the I mean,
you know how close to the river is to the
edge of my house.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
It was right there.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
I mean, the the aging river was just a foot
from the corner of my house. Big, a big tree
came down and got hung up on the bank. And
so now there's this big, giant root ball and you know,
the whole tree going down right beside our house, which
I was a little bit worried about it. Then kind
of pushing water over the edge, you know, I mean,
(04:19):
nothing's knock on wood, nothing. Our house hasn't had water
in it. It's a little bit higher than it needs
to be, just slightly. I mean, I think we're talking
in the inches, not feet, department of And so when
it does spill over the banks, it tends to go
in some lower spots and kind of turns us into
an island.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
And that's what was going on last night.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
So I woke up a couple of times and got
up just to make sure that, you know, our Christmas
presents weren't getting wet.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Okay, I don't want that, we don't need, yeah, you know,
And not to make light of it, but a lot
of people spend a lot of money for those pools
that look like they're overflowing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You
just have a big giant infinity pool in the backyard.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
Okay, there's big logs and trees floating down This one
bit more dangerous than these.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
You have to pay extra for that.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Usually that's probably true.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
That's called scenery. Okay, yeah, I think you should sell
right now, right now, Sinity. But make it natural.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
I did want to sell right now. No one would
buy right now. They would be.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Terrified, at least not until Thursday or Friday when the
rain is supposed to finally stop.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Geez.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Well, I am sorry.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
That is something that that's one last thing you need
to worry about right now.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
It's all good.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's all good water Mama refet.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Right now.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Oh geez, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Well, speaking of rivers, we may be facing one this
weekend as the Seattle Seahawks are have really topped themselves
this time. I mean, they do have an incredible skill.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
I asked coach Holmgren about it yesterday during Monday.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Morning quarterback off the Air, like how talented are the
Sea Hawks to always end up facing backup quarterbacks? And
he said it's a heck of a strategy right there.
But Bucky and I used to talk about his off
the air quite a bit about how often it seemed
to happen, and I don't I don't know if it's
(06:17):
similar to other teams. I'm not sure, but certainly, I mean,
we faced Davis Mills in Houston, did we not? That
was during the baseball playoffs. I really wasn't paying attention
to that game we faced. We faced Cousins and not Pennis.
We faced Brosmer and not McCarthy.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
And this one takes the cake because the Indianapolis Colts
as of right now don't have a starting quarterback. They
don't have one. I'm not making that up. They don't
have a starting quarterback, not on their active roster. That
is healthy. Daniel Jones goes down torn achilles. We knew
(07:00):
at the moment he wasn't gonna play the following week.
He's out for the season. That is now official. What
I didn't realize, because I don't watch the Indianapolis Colts
every single second of every single day, is that Anthony Richardson.
If you remember, back in training camp, it was is
it Daniel Jones or Anthony Richardson? And that was supposed
to be a big camp battle, and so you know,
(07:23):
you see Daniel Jones go down and my immediate thought
in watching Sunday was, well, here's Anthony Richardson. These you
got an opportunity to play Anthony Richardson. And then they
announced no, no, no, no, he's on the ir from
an incident that happened off the field. I don't even
remember that story breaking. But they don't have Anthony Richardson.
(07:44):
Riley Lennard was their start, was their backup who came
in and filled in for Daniel Jones. He got hurt
during the game as well against Houston, and so they
have they have no healthy quarterback on the active roster.
Brett Rippen was on the practice squad, and I assume
that's who we're going to face is Brett Rippon on Sunday.
(08:09):
But but, and this is one of the most unbelievable
stories we've seen all year long and maybe for a
number of years. The Colts have brought in former Colt
quarterback Philip Rivers for a visit. Forty four years old,
hasn't played, He's almost eligible for the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
Yeah, it's gonna say Tommy retire in twenty.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
And then he's got to start that all over again
if he signs a contract. I don't think Philip Rivers
is concerned.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
About that, but he's on father by the way, Philip
Rivers is like, yeah, I'll do it.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
And so he's visiting Indianapolis and they're going to decide
whether or not to put him on the roster. Now
I can't imagine in a million years he could be
ready to start a football game coming up on Sunday.
But nonetheless, that's how desperate the Indianapolis Colts are for
a quarterback in the playoff hunt. They fell out of
the playoff picture this past week with their loss, but
(09:05):
at eight and five, they are smack dab in the
middle of a playoff race. And yet they are possibly
gonna have to to turn to Philip Rivers, Bucky's favorite player,
uh for the rest of their season. Incredible, incredible scenario
that has developed in Indy.
Speaker 5 (09:22):
It's I mean, I thought that I was done having
watched Philip Rivers. I mean, he's got ten kids, he's
a grandpa, like Ashley says, you know, he's I think
he was coaching his whole hometown high school team. And
it was like, good off into the sunset you go,
and now it's a there's a chance that that's where
they're at.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I mean literally, old.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Man, Yeah, yeah, I mean yeah.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Riley Leonard, you know, I remember him from college, and
yet he got dinged up coming in after the Daniel
Jones blue his achilles out and so you're like, oh, wow,
and now Brett rip ripping. I've seen he was on
the practice squad and did some preseason stuff with the Broncos.
I would think he would be the guy that is
the closest to be ready to perform in an NFL game,
(10:08):
and yet the idea of them thinking you got to
have more than one. I don't know how bad the
knee injury is for Riley Leonard. Now, it must be
bad enough that even if they're thinking, you know, Ripping
might get them through this week, they're not necessarily wanting to,
you know, rest the rest of their playoff hopes on
somebody that they didn't even have active, you know, that
(10:29):
they've kind of felt was a scout team guy up
to this point.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
So very interesting.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I can't imagine being that age and going out there,
and I mean to some degree, while he's a veteran
and once he figures out, I mean, he knows kind
of the offense to some degree. That's where he played
last before he hung it up. I think while he
could probably figure it out fairly quickly, between the ears,
the body part of it, Like, I mean, the game's
(10:56):
got to speedback up. I would think after you take
a couple of years off.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Yeah for sure, not to mention what four years off, yeah,
and then you are going to get activated in time
to possibly face Mike McDonald's defense. And there wasn't even
a defense that looked like Mike McDonald's the last time
Phil Rivers played right, And so I don't think that's
even in the realm of possibility that Philip Rivers is
(11:21):
going to sign today and be ready to play by Sunday.
But it does highlight just how desperate the Colts quarterback
situation became in an instant, in an instant, when Daniel
Jones went down and Riley Leonard might be healthy enough
to play, I mean he's dealing with a knee injury.
Obviously they were gonna have to sign some sort of
veteran backup this week, so this could be just you know,
(11:46):
it would bring Philip Rivers on to the staff and
we have him. But the fact that he's there on
Seahawks week incredible.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Well, and I think, you know, good for him because
every professional athlete, you hear him talk all the time
about how, gosh, I just want to play long enough
for my grandchildren to watch me play. You hear him
say that all the time.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Well, I mean he is somebody. I mean he crossed
my mind yesterday. We didn't get time to talk about
the Colts in the quarterback situation during Monday Morning Quarterback.
And the reason he crossed my mind is because his
name comes up every off season and he brings it up,
like Philip Rivers has hung on to this idea that
I'm staying in football shape, that if you need me,
(12:25):
I can play, And of all the people out there,
I would think he's a candidate for it. But to
have that happen after what three off seasons of saying that,
and for it to happen at age forty four and
in week fifteen of the National Football League season, I
mean Brett Farrer's name used to come up all the time,
(12:46):
like if you need me, I could do it. Obviously,
far's way past that, but Philip Rivers kept keeping his
name out there as a possibility, like I could go
if somebody called me.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I think I could still go.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
So he has a relationship with Shane Styke, and he
obviously has a relationship with the RSA family, having been
the Indianapolis Colts quarterback in the past. So I wasn't
totally shocked by it. But that does not underestimate the
craziness of this story.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Yeah, just anybody playing any sport, let alone being the
most contact one in the NFL at forty four years old.
Just man, that just gives me the weavy gebi's. I mean,
I have a hard time like getting out of chairs.
You know, I won't jump off the tailgate of my
truck anymore because it hurts too much. I can't imagine
having young, strapping Thoroughbreds chasing me down and trying to
(13:40):
smash me in my old brittle bones. No, I mean,
for what it's worth, I don't like that news is.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
If he can always say, like, if you don't sack me,
I'll give you a butterscotch.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Yeah, unwrapping right here, Scott, he used to give me
those right here, pocket right here. I mean I don't
like Philip or I didn't like Philip Rivers because he
was his mouthy and but he was a good quarterback
for Chargers, very Wine.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Very wine. But everybody loved and respect him though the football.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Yeah, and the opponents they got a kick out of
his trash talk because he never cussed.
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Yeah, yes, yes, and and yeah great if he came
back just cussing every other word. Yeah, I learned some
new trick boys, motherflower. Yeah, I mean, but it's the
idea of him keeping it open because he never won
a Super Bowl. I don't you know, he never even
got to a super Bowl, and so that, I mean,
I can see why a guy that has his story
(14:40):
to a career as he does is like, I don't
want to ride off into the sunset. I'll just kind
of I'll just put my horse over here and just
you guys know that I'm heading in that direction. But
if somebody needs me, But it is still crazy absurd
to think that that might be the way that they go.
But yeah, I mean, well, I mean it's trending toward
him taking a snap this year in the National Football leagueted.
(15:03):
I think that after a couple of weeks of practice,
you know, looking at what they have, perhaps being able
to lean on an experienced guy. I mean it's kind
of leaning toward him taking a snap before this season comes.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
To a close.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
And part of it is because it's so late in
the process. My first thought yesterday, when we didn't have
time to discuss it, was Derek Carr. He just retired.
I think you could probably he's another guy that didn't.
I don't think that he left the game feeling satisfied.
And he's got to be in better shape than Philip Rivers,
(15:38):
and he's he's got to be able to I mean,
he's not so far removed that the defenses are going
to look as fast as they're going to look to
a guy that's going to be out there in the
huddle with a walker. So I thought Derek Carr would
be a possibility. Maybe they called him and maybe he
said nah, not at this stage, there's no way that
(15:59):
I could jump right back into that.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
The other thought that I had was Russell Wilson. I
mean saw somebody else post that too.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
I mean Russell Wilson went to the Giants and said, hey,
cut me. You don't have to owe me another dollar.
You're out from underneath me.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Just release me.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I got a chance for legacy. I mean, it wouldn't
be a financially smart decision, but I have a chance
from a legacy standpoint to take over quarterback. I don't
think anybody else would sign me take over quarterback for
the Indianapolis Colts. I jump right into a playoff push,
and I might be able to save my career.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
I mean it's a good Yeah, it's a good call.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
And I think that the Giants would play ball with that.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
But it is just a matter of whether or not
Sierra would let Russell take that big of a pay cut.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Yeah, which I don't know if she would.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
I don't know if she would either.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
And I don't know Sierra and I might be just
overreading into it, but that's my ready.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
I don't know if she would.
Speaker 5 (16:54):
I mean, that would honestly be the probably the best,
as much as he doesn't look like the same Russ.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
So that you know, everybody around here got to watch.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Got to be better than Philip Rivers.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
He's got to be better than a forty four year
old that hadn't played in four or five years. I mean,
it's incredible.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
I mean, but there's really I mean, you you just
mulled over probably the best possible plans.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
I don't. I think Derek Carr is injured.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
I think that's why he didn't come back, because he
had to have a season injured. I think he had
to have surgery right on, like a labor him or something.
But regardless, there's just not very many options out there.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Well, if he would have done that, then he could
have kept making money. He retired, But he did it
on purpose. He did it to save the Saints. I
remember that part of the story. It was very commendable.
He's like, I could just stay and keep getting paid.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Instead, I'm gonna I'm gonna shut this down so you
don't have to pay me anymore, you know, while I'm
just rehabbing an injury. But yeah, I think I think
the Russell Wilson part would be very interesting, whether or
not the Giants. I don't know why the Giants wouldn't
do it. Yeah, I mean they can't trade them obviously
at this point this season, but they could they could
just let him go like, yeah, we don't don't need you,
(18:01):
we're not trying to Yeah, we're not going anywhere.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Yeah, I think they would be happy to it's just
a matter of where we don't want to pay you
to play for somebody else.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Right, it sounds like the plot to like the spin
off the football version of Major League, Like here's a team,
they're good, but then all of a sudden they just
have all this bad luck happen, and then they have
to go like hold open tryouts for quarterback and they're
gonna win.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Well, and by the way, c J.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Stroud did play against US, Jayde Daniels got hurt against US.
Jacoby Brissett played against US in the second game against
the Cardinals, So yeah, we faced our fair share of
backup quarterbacks, but nothing like this. I mean, I don't
know what we're gonna end up facing on Sunday against
the Colts. All right, let's find out what's on tap
(18:46):
for the rest of the show.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
What's on TEP?
Speaker 4 (18:52):
What's one? All right?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Seahawks Colts Sunday one twenty five. Greg Bell will join
us at seven o five this morning. He was traveling
back from Georgia yesterday, so we didn't get a chance
to get his thoughts on the game, and now suddenly
we get his thoughts here on this Tuesday about Philip
Rivers possibly.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Starting against the Seahawks. It doesn't even it's hard to
even form those words.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
He's sent that text last night, I just laughed out
loud because looking at it and writing seems so absurd.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Week fourteen is now in the books. The Los Angeles
Chargers one of the Philadelphia Eagles in overtime last night,
twenty two to nineteen. Justin Herbert gutted it out. Man,
I don't know this guy. He just I don't know
if there's a tougher human being in the world than
Justin Herbert. I mean, he already takes all that abuse.
I mean, he looked like Chubbs Peterson out there trying
(19:42):
to play quarterback. It looked like he had a fake
wooden hand that he would every time he fell, he
would hold barely high enough in the air so that
it didn't collide with the ground. I mean, I had
some skill right there. Yeah, that is some really unbelievable
physical awareness that he played that game with a broken
left hand, and somehow he even stiff armed a dude
(20:04):
at one point in the game that.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Would have a tough game too.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Afterwards, Jim Rball called him a god, no, a superhero
called him a superhero after the game.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
Yeah, it was pretty impressive for what he went out
there and did. And I mean to find a way
to pull that game out, And I mean it was
the toughness that it must be.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
I mean to have.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
He had said, surgery, so you know there's like an incision.
You know, they had to put plate and screws in there, right,
and then okay, here, just wear this glove with a
little bit of bandage stuff around it and go out
and get sacked.
Speaker 6 (20:34):
And oh yet he still gets a hard time for
his postgame interview. I was like, okay, let's just focus
on what he did.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Yeah, it's incredible.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
I'm at one point, Harbaugh said afterwards, if that was
a movie, I'd have turned it off because I wasn't believable.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
And yet Herbert just kept going.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Meanwhile, speaking of unbelievable, and why does this keep happening
to us as sports fans, because sports are amazing. Jalen
Hurts had two turnovers on one play that has never
happened before in the history of the National Football League.
He threw an interception. The guy the interceptor fumbled the ball,
Hurts picked it up, so he recovered a fumble and
then fumbled it right back to the charges.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
That has never.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Happened before in the history of the National Football League.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Incredible.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
The college football world is still buzzing about the college
football Playoff. We're gonna find more time talk about that today.
The Huskies will play in the LA Bowl this Saturday,
the very first bowl game, so we'll get that out
of the way college But the big news we're gonna
discuss today Rick new Isle. Is he really a strong
candidate for the Koog's head coaching position as vacated by
(21:37):
Jimmy Rodgers. Well, guess who joins us today at nine
o'clock and he's got to know the questions coming. Rick
new Isle will be with US today Live at nine
to talk about that rumor. It's Army Navy Week. Heisman
will be named on Saturday. The four finalists Pavia Mendoza, Saying,
and Jeremiah Love of Notre Dame, with Mendoza being the
(21:59):
heavy favorite. There, the crack and slump continues. They lost
to the Wild four to one. Wasn't as lopsided as
it sounds. It was actually two to one in the
Wild score two empty net goals, but it's a loss. Nonetheless,
everet fits you will try to solve things for us
today at eight thirty. It's also a crack and ticket Tuesday,
so be listening for your opportunity to win cracking tickets
every hour here all day long. On KJAR and the
(22:22):
Winter Meetings, Yeah, I guess they are continuing, but there
has been nothing that's happened in a day and a half,
so we'll tap into some of the rumors that the
Mariners are being involved in. On the other side, it's
Chuck and Buck getting started here on a Tuesday Sports
Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. I'm starting to wonder
if we should acknowledge Christmas being better than the Winter Meetings. Finally, Well,
(22:47):
that's that's where I'm coming from this morning. It is, yeah,
financially better. Hey, Christmas is great. Why don't we give
it more attention than we do the Winter meeting? Why
do we get all fired up for the Winter Meetings?
Speaker 4 (22:56):
Wouldn't you say we? You mean you?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
I mean the American pub.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
I think most people recognize that Christmas is.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Much better than the Winter Meetings. Oh and right now
witnessing this year for sure. Yeah, I always even put
a prospect or a new player under my tree right now,
and I have like a multiple presents under the tree
for Christmas.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Well, Mariners are involved in a lot of different conversations
out there, and so we'll dive into some of the
rumors here, and then every single insider that's there and
is killing like twelve hours of programming on MLB network
with no moves to react, is saying that it's about
(23:42):
the pop and maybe it doesn't happen in time for
the Winter meetings, but they all believe that the market
is going to move faster than it has in past years,
and certainly that there are a bunch of trades that
are being lined up right now. So Mariners are involved
a lot lot of things. They actually have pulled off.
The only trade it wasn't at the Winter meetings, but
(24:03):
it was right before the Winter meetings. We talked about
it a little bit yesterday, but Ford versus farrar E
the trade that we made with the Washington Nationals to
give up Harry Ford the prospect for jose A Ferrara,
a left handed relief pitcher. We did have a little
bit of time talk about it yesterday. I'll just quickly
(24:24):
reiterate my thoughts. I mean, I think that one, we
didn't get as much back for Harry Ford as I
thought we would or could. Two, there's certainly is value
in getting a lefty reliever who might be on the
verge of turning into something very useful for a major
League Baseball team that you have a lot of control over.
(24:46):
So I get why they were interested in him. And
number three, I think maybe you know, because we like
Harry Ford so much, we saw him be a prospect
for so long, maybe even we overvalued him because I
can promise you, Jerry, justin every general manager out there
is not taking less in a trade for a guy
like this was what they felt was the best that.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
They could get for Harry Ford.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
Yeah, and I thought that there was more, probably more
meat left on that bone, just but you're right, it
probably was more of us, like in the story, like
in the kid and then watching him, you know, kind
of keeping tabs on him as he was coming up
through the minor leagues. Now, obviously with you know, with
Cal flourishing into the dude that he is, then there
(25:29):
was no place for it. Right, You didn't know that
Cal was going to be the dude he is when
you ended up drafting Harry Ford a few years after
you you drafted him, and so there comes appointment. It's like, well,
let's get what we can for him. I mean to me,
there's I don't know for sure if he most certainly
hasn't reached the ceiling yet. He hasn't even had much
of an opportunity at the big league level. So to me,
(25:49):
it's like, well, I think you could have possibly kept
him around, let him, you know, catch her, you know,
once twice a week, and maybe d h if he's
swinging a little bit, and then you could probably his
stock could have rose and you maybe could have got
more of what we thought right, because I was picturing
him as as the guy that maybe is going to
be able to hit at the big league level and
catch and run. But the way it is now, he's gone,
(26:12):
and yet they did get what I'm thinking is going
to be a pretty good picture out of the bullpen
for us.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Ford said yesterday that he was sort of devastated by
the news, but also excited to be with a young team.
He's going to be surrounded by a lot of guys
that are young like him. There's no question about it.
And can build something there. So Harry's very nice, very
good young man, and so we wish him the best
and hopefully this jose A Fererra is what Jerry and
(26:38):
Justin think that he is, because I don't want to
go through Gregory Santos again. Mitch Garver, though, suddenly becomes
the talk about who's going to back up cal again
this year, And just when you thought you were out,
they pulled you back in.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
And I've had a couple of conversations with people on
Twitter about it, and I get the idea of if
they did bring him back, he's not going to be
make twelve million dollars a year, which he obviously didn't
live up to that over the last couple of years.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
I just don't want to see it anymore. He's a
good dude.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
I know he's respected in the clubhouse. He's one of
those veteran guys. I just don't want to see it anymore.
And I don't even care if it's once a week
in backup catching duty. I don't really care for him.
Behind the dish, the he knows the staff and so
I think he calls a good game. I don't think
he blocks particularly well. I don't think he throws particularly well,
and I can't stand the way that he approachesn't at bat.
(27:30):
And so, yes, there's other options out there, not that
there's a bunch of great dudes that are bringing a
lot to the table.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
But I'm sure you.
Speaker 5 (27:38):
Could go out and find somebody and pay him a
million bucks or a couple million bucks, and I wouldn't.
They probably aren't going to go up there battling for walks.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I don't think you got to worry about it, and
I don't think you have to worry about it because.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
I don't think he wants to come back here good.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
As much as he liked his as much as he
liked his teammates. I mean the death threat story from
a year ago. Believe me, he did not look happy
with anybody but his teammates. I think if he's going
to keep playing, it's not going to be at a
discount to a place where he and.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
His family got death threats. I think he's going to
move on. I don't think.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Yeah, I get why the Mariners might say, hey, we
need a backup catcher. We might as well go with
the devil we know in Mitch Garver at a much
reduced rate.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
But I don't think Mitch Garver's going to play ball.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
That's a good point. I hope not. I hope he
hates it here.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Trade Wise, there's Katel Marte rumors popping up. Sounds like
Arizona is definitely going to move Marte, who's had a
lot of injuries and yet has achieved superstardom with the
Arizona Diamondbacks since he left here a few years ago.
And yet Mariners maybe circling back around, might have some
interest in him if the Polanco thing falls through. Another
(28:52):
name I'm going to throw out there is CJ. Abrams,
who's a bit of a pill. It sounds like young
shortstop slash second baseman for the Washington Nationals, but also
kind of reminds me of a young of what katel
Marte was turning into. Not here, but once he got
to Arizona. That's the type of player he sort of
(29:12):
reminds me of. Plus he steals like sixty bags a year.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
C J.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Abrams apparently made available by the Washington Nationals. Could they
pull off two trades with the Nationals in a week.
Maybe that's a possibility, But I think all of this
is playing beat and not bringing Polonko back. But nonetheless,
if the Mariners do have a trick up their sleeve,
it could be for a Marte, could be for an
Abrams this week.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
It'd be interesting if they did the Kateel Marte. I
mean it's an upgrade. I mean even that's saying something
because the way Polunco hit and played last year. But
I mean, he this is a guy that's in the
MVP conversation a bunch of years.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
But you just a big money a star.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Yeah, you'd not as much as you think, not bad.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Well, it's not a bad.
Speaker 5 (29:54):
Salary, decent, decent money all the way through his age
thirty seven season. Which is that's a kicker, is the
Mariners are not. Stanton hates doing that. Yeah, they don't
want to say they don't want to be paying somebody
that's on the down, on the decline. And you've I've
you've seen it happen before you know, and and it
just doesn't typically work out. Most guys are not as
(30:15):
good when they're thirty seven, and if you're paying them
that because of what they were when they were twenty seven,
that's problem.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
But it seems like it's the wrong move. It doesn't
seem like it's a Mariner move for the reasons you said. So,
you paid Marte before he reached his peak, and then
you're going to get him on the downside as well,
plus all the injury history, plus their philosophy when it
comes to older players. It I don't even know why
we're involved in the rumors. It doesn't make sense that
we're involved in Katel Marte rumors, even though, as you know,
(30:43):
I love the guy. Yeah, no, and I and I
think it stinks that we missed out on Katel Marte's
outstanding career. Finally, just quickly, Munataka Morikami is somebody that
I'm still just fixated on. He's the latest Japanese phenom
that's coming over, the guy with the eighty power grade.
In the scouting report. They believe that he could hit
(31:04):
fifty to sixty home runs in the major leagues in
a season. But he does strike out a lot, which
is scaring off a few people and a few Mariner
fans about signing him. The only reason I bring it
up is because he has to sign by the twenty
second of December.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
I mean, he got posted.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
There's only there's a finite amount of time that Japanese
players have to negotiate a deal. So he's going to
make a decision here in the next thirteen days. I
think the Mariners have to at least be kicking the tires,
even though I haven't heard of any progress happening with Murakami.
But I haven't heard of any progress happening with Murakami and.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Any team to this point.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
But we know he's got a sign in the next
thirteen days, so we'll have that information here in the
next couple of weeks, all right, Coming up next on
the program, the Kraken struggles continue. Not even the high
jinks of two jackasses during the intermission could break them
out of it. Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
Speaker 7 (32:02):
Fly Oh, Captain by Captain on the power play thirteen twelve.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
So to go on the second we're tied one?
Speaker 1 (32:18):
What ever fits you on the call right here on
your flagship Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM of
Crack and Hockey. As Yes, last night, the Kraken did
score a goal, Jordan Everley scoring there, but that was
the only goal of the night. This team is in
a real slump right now. More on that in a moment.

The Cracking have now lost to what five in a
(33:02):
row at this point, six in a row now at
this point With their four to one loss to the
Minnesota Wild last night, certainly Lane Lambert is having his
roughest time as Cracking coach.
Speaker 5 (33:14):
Yeah, it's not good obviously. You gotta stop that skid.
Yesterday they gave up the second goal and then like
quickly ended up getting one back, and yet then they
call it back.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
I didn't know that was even a rule.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
I did either.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
Couldn't have your stick over the top of the goal
and knock it back down. He hit it off the
tenders back and it went in. But yeah, they're having
a hard time figuring out wayte to win right now.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
Well, especially for a team that was so strong defensively
to start the season, and it just seems like we
cannot figure it out.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
They are not.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Strong at anything right now, and so the struggle continues.
They will try to snap that losing streak tomorrow at
home against the Kings. By the way, it is a
cracking ticket Tuesday, So be listening for your chance every
single hour to win tickets to see the Crack and
take on the Philadelphia Flyers on December twenty eighth.
Speaker 2 (34:04):

get out of the house, you go watch the Crack
and play the Philadelphia Flyers. Be listening every hour tenth
caller when you hear a sounder, particular sounder, We've already
done it this hour, so we're not doing it now.
Call us at two six, two eight, six ninety five
ninety five for a chance to win a pair of
tickets to see the Crack and play on December twenty
(34:26):
eighth against the Philadelphia Flyers. Did you see the two
knuckleheads last night skating around on the ice?
Speaker 5 (34:34):
I didn't see it during the game, but I saw
a video that Jess sent. Yeah, not the greatest video.
I don't know if she's got like a one megapixel
camera on.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Her phone drawing the first time, but then I went
back and it was bigger and normal. That's how your
videos come through too. I don't quite get it. Yeah,
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
It could be ever since the latest update my phones.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Man, here you go, Bucky. Here's a drawing. I don't
have video, but here's a drawing of Dick and he's
Softy playing tug of war on the ice.
Speaker 5 (34:58):
It was very similar, but I guess Softy one. They
looked like all of them fell.
Speaker 6 (35:02):
They looked like two baby horses walking for the first time,
and neither of them, neither one went after it.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I don't know what it's supposed to look like. Tim
Booth had said something about it was the worst tug
of war contest they've ever had, so I guess it's
it didn't look like what it's supposed to look like.
I think you are supposed to fall, and you drag
each other all over the ice.
Speaker 6 (35:23):
You're usually putting in like more of a like I'm
gonna throw my body to try to I mean it,
I've seen him before.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
This was not.
Speaker 6 (35:30):
This was like, okay, well I'm just going to bring
you with me over here and then you can come
with me over here. And then now I'm just gonna
grab the rope and we're gonna walk this way and
I'm going to put the ball in the Yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
Gotta be honest, I kind of would have approached it
that way because the last thing I want to do
is like slip fall on the ice and brust my
nose open. So I probably would have been just as
timid as they are. So I'm not going to really
criticize them. But in terms of showmanship, not really there No, no, yeah,
not exactly gladiator down there?
Speaker 2 (35:57):
No, are you not entertained? No or not No, not
anything at all.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
You guys tip tone around on the ice, bungee cord attached?
Speaker 1 (36:06):
No next, well, at least soft he's got bragging rights
for the rest of his life.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
He won't abuse that. No, no, not at all.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
I was on with Fame last night. He did congratulate
us on our Factor Fiction championship, but I don't think
he was serious.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Well.
Speaker 6 (36:22):
Their plan was to try to just go opposite of
us quite a bit and see if they could steal
victories that way, and they taught them.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
I don't think his heart was in congratulating us. You
probably know.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Yeah, they kind of dismissed it, like they didn't Dick.
Dick blamed it on Softy and Jackson not caring enough.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
That's what he blamed it on. I don't feel bad
for them at all.
Speaker 4 (36:39):
I don't either.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
We're champs back to back. By the way, he didn't
mention that last night, Dick. All right, coming up next
Headlines plus Greg Bell. It's about time we talked to
Greg Bell. Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ r
