Speaker 1 (00:00):
9 o'clock hour on a football Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Great to have you with us. Chuck Powell, Ashley Ryan
with you. Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM. And tomorrow, the
Dawgs back in action right here on the flagship as
Cam Cleland and Elyse Woodward will be on the call.
David Softy-Muller on the sidelines. 12.30 kickoff, the game's greatest
(00:39):
pregame show.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Four and a half hours beforehand, right? Eight o'clock, or
are they starting at 8.30? Why do I never notice?
It's usually four hours. Yeah, it's usually four hours. So yeah,
it should be 8.30.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
All right, 8.30 start to the Saturday affair. And then,
of course, Cam Cleland and Elyse on the call starting
at 1230 kickoff. Joining us on the program is the
former Husky tight end legend and color analyst for the Dawgs,
Cam Cleland.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Hi, Cam.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
Well, good morning. It's a very calm start to Friday.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yeah, very calm. Calm before the storm.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
Yes. Is that what Fridays are like in the studio there?
Everybody's just calm and sedentary. It's the end of the week.
Supposed to be happy at the end of the week.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
I have loafers on and a cardigan, a nice comfortable cardigan. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I'm having a nice day.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
It was pajama day. Maybe I'm.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Having a nice rum punch right now. So, Oh, geez. Uh,
all right. I'm jealous.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
All right.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I'll get fired up because we got Cam Cleland and
we can talk some football.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
All right.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Your first impression of the 2026, uh, Washington Huskies came,
in the Apple Cup on Sunday. So what did you
come away with? What did you think? What kind of
first impression did they make on you?
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Well, my first impression is we got a really good
defense and we have some young players on offense and
we have one of the best quarterbacks in the country
that's going to carry a lot of offensive load on
his shoulders this year. That's what I came away with.
Guys that need more experience, more time on the offensive line,
more time at wide receiver. I also learned that You
don't have enough running back depth. I mean, you do,
(02:17):
but it's getting guys reps, and then suddenly your top
two runners go down, and you're looking everybody in the
back going, okay, who's next? We're all looking around going,
who's going to be that next guy? And then DeMond
Williams takes over, makes an electric play on third down,
which was one of the best runs I've ever seen,
to be able to keep that drive going.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
So I learned a lot.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
I still need to get to know these guys when
they face– further down the road when we get into
conference play and see what it's like versus Minnesota. And
certainly I don't like looking past games whatsoever, but Utah
State lost to Idaho State, who's an FCS team. They
still have some talent and this game still means more,
but it's about getting these younger players. And I think
(02:56):
Coach Fish said it really clearly when I talked to
him after the game, said, we got to get these
guys reps, these younger players reps and eliminate the penalties
and the mistakes because that to me, was the most
glaring thing I noticed that has to be corrected.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
First game of the year, you don't know exactly how
that's going to come together.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
That's historic.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
But today's game, with the lack of practice, tackling, and timing, Um,
I mean, you're pretty much in shorts and shells.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Most of the time.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Uh, it seems like it's almost impossible to click right
out of the gates. I mean, it took Notre Dame
two quarters to get going. You know, I took them
two quarters. But it took them two quarters and it
looked like it took the Huskies three quarters to get
their offense going. And so how much do you pin
that on just everybody's going to start slow in today's
(03:52):
culture offensively because of how hard it is to replicate
game speed and practice these days?
Speaker 5 (04:00):
I think it's a really big deal.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
And also.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
College football has evolved, and it does. It's cyclical.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
It moves.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
It shifts with offense throughout. I mean, offense sets the
tone in college football. It has for years. You can
go all the way back when the option first came in.
What is that? And it was electric. And then you
saw tempo offense come in with what Chip Kelly did
at Oregon and huddle up and no huddles. And it
changed the way everybody saw offense. We have spoiled. We
(04:29):
saw games in the 50s. The Big 12, before they
got realigned, was terrible. Everybody was scoring 50, but you
know what defense does? They catch up and they, they only,
not only do they catch up, they can scheme it.
It's on film. And then certainly it's not always that
playing defense is easier at the beginning of a season,
but it's just, it's doesn't require as much because offense
(04:50):
has shifts motions. It has lots of details. It has
lots of nuances. There's lots of verbiage in an offensive
call and you have guys that are trying to, okay,
do I pass block? These aren't excuses. These are factual realities.
Offense takes a while. It works that way in the
NFL also. This is just how football will always be.
But football wins at the line of scrimmage. That has
never changed. And that will never, ever change. And so
(05:13):
if you don't win at the line of scrimmage running
and then being able to rush the passer and control
the line of scrimmage against the run game and stop
the run, then you're going to look really, really bad
all the time. And that's something that this Husky group
with this offensive line and their younger players there and
with the running back situation, are going to have their
work cut out for them moving forward.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
One other question along those lines. First game. I mean,
it's a rivalry game. It's your first game. For a
lot of players, their first game ever. I mean, we
had a lot of freshmen on the football field on Saturday,
and so you understand that they're a little overhyped for
the game. But there were a lot of, let's call
them foolish penalties in the Apple Cup, and most of
those foolish penalties were committed by the Huskies. Are you
(05:57):
worried at all that that's an issue with this team
or are you just chalking that up again to game one?
There was a lot of reasons to be overhyped and
they were just purely overhyped.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
Well, I, I'm going to chalk that up to immaturity
and experience. It's just, it's again, this is facts. This,
these guys are young. They don't have the experience. This
goes in every job industry or anything we do. There's
a reason why Indiana had 18 fifth and six-year players
win a national championship. Oh, by the way, they were
playing a Miami team that had 25th and six-year player.
(06:30):
They had a 25-year-old quarterback. Experience certainly does matter when
you look at the depth and talent. Look at the
age groups of players. You have to have that. And
if you're a young kid and you're going to finish
and you want to look great for your coach and
you're excited and you're running out of bounds, Like the shot,
I mean, you saw on the sideline. I mean, Ryland Dillard,
I mean, he's going for the ball. I mean, is
(06:50):
it a targeting in slow motion?
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Well, yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
You know how many targetings we could call in college
football and football if we slowed every hit down? There
wouldn't be any players left on the field. Okay, we
might as well just play flag football and let everybody
touch each other and graze each other and say, you're down.
But he was playing fast. But the hits out of
bounds are steps. Those are maturity things. Do I need
to hit this shot? Do I need to slow down?
(07:14):
I have to know how to play. with speed. I
know how to get all of that comes with knowing
how to handle the speed. Ask any athlete, any former athlete,
you go from peewee football to high school football.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Oh my God, these guys are huge. The game is fast.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Give them a couple of weeks. Oh, I caught up.
It's the same situation year in and year out. And
we see these younger players, the game has to slow
down to them and everybody has to get reps. You
cannot simulate reps like that in practice. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
You can have game simulation and, You just can't do
it in practice. You can't get that type of energy
when the stadium's full and the music's on and everybody's
ready to go.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Cam Cleland is with us. This segment brought to you
by Warrior Injury Law as we talk some Huskies football
every week.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
We're doing it on Friday.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
We won't be doing it on Fridays during most of
the season, but that damn Seahawk Wednesday thing kind of
screwed up the schedule this week.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Good one, though.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
I'll take that.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Yeah, we're catching up with Cam here today. uh, on
Chuck in the morning sports radio, 93.3 KJR FM. Well, I've,
I've highlighted a couple of the things that did not
go so well. I do want to talk about something
positive with this team because it was our first look
at a lot of those freshmen. Jones ends up with
an interception that was big. Uh, Ramzak looks like a man. He,
(08:30):
he looks like a weapon and Derek Coleman, Bruce, uh,
I don't know if you came away or if you
have the same opinion, uh, I mean, that guy looks
like a future superstar. I mean, I don't want to
get ahead of it. He's a freshman playing one game,
but that guy looks like a monster.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
Yeah, well, he doesn't even look like a freshman. He
looks like a 40-year-old man that should be chopping wood
out in the middle of the– It's like Nick Bosa.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
Exactly. He's massive. He almost decapitated the official. Great job
by the official to duck because he almost on that
right hook that he came up in. He looks– Fantastic.
He's stout at the run. He's super strong. But to me,
the guy that jumped off the screen to me was Ramzak.
For another freshman, a stand-up outside edge, which I'm telling you,
(09:15):
there's not a lot of young players that can come
in and play big-time college football and be out on
an edge because it requires you to keep your shoulder
free for run defense. Past rushing against the best guys,
the best tackles, most experienced players. He was fast to
the football. He was smart with it. They'll be smart
because they have a lot of depth. And Jacob Lane
(09:36):
is an NFL guy on the other side. You saw
Isaiah Ward. They have depth to be able to let
him develop a little bit. If he plays 25, 30
plays a game at the start of the season and
you can rotate those guys, that's what Coach Walters does
really well. That front four and even into the linebacker crew,
he rotates excellent. Now, depending on how the offense goes
(09:59):
with time, but the linebacker core jumped off the charts
to me. I mean, Jacob Manu, he was one of
the best players on the field. No question. He played
out of his mind. And so the depth on defense, guys,
this is a really big deal, how good this defense
is going to be.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
No doubt. No doubt.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
All right.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
So Utah State tomorrow. Obviously, the expectation is a win,
maybe even a blowout win for a team that. against
a team that lost to Idaho State by 12 last week.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
And so how do you balance this?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
You've got to get your team sharp for Big Ten play,
and yet you'd like to have a couple of gimme's
in order to work on some of these things that
you and I have been talking about here in this segment.
So what's the balance there of how do you get
ready for the top competition not facing top competition and–
(10:52):
How do you work on things without just rubbing it
in the face of the.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Opponent if you're up 20 in the second half?
Speaker 5 (11:00):
Well, I think you do rub it in the face.
I mean, do you want me to be honest with you?
You saw what they did to UC Davis last year.
This isn't a feel-friendly type situation because you have to
get ready and you have to get these players ready.
I'm going to beat this over and over with these
younger guys, but you have to clean up the details.
That's what I want to see this football game. is
the biggest jump, and this is, and Chuck, you've probably seen,
(11:21):
you've watched enough football, you understand the biggest jump in
football is week one to week two. It's a huge
jump because obviously we don't have preseason football in college.
So you get to see veteran players that are like, okay,
I'm settling. But the young guys are like, all right,
I got these nerves over. I know what it's like
to play at this speed. I can settle in a
little bit. Now I know how this to react. I
(11:44):
can anticipate a little bit more. So I expect a
really big jump, not only because your opponent is maybe
not as good as you, but because you're going to
prepare a little bit different. You know what you're going
to handle it. I need execution numbers. I need penalties.
I need to see a really good on first down
on the offense. I want to see mistakes cleaned up
with the positions by Cody green at left tackle, not
(12:05):
missing on blocks on edges. I want to see him
and John Mills move double teams really, really well. Great
footwork on that side. I want the defense to play fast,
and I want them to bring tons of pressure because
the quarterback, he's pretty elusive. He's pretty quick. He'll make
some good throws. He made a few interceptions against Idaho
State under pressure from his throwing side. I want to
(12:25):
see those executions sharp, hardly any penalties, create turnovers, and
I want to see 50-plus points on the board because
that's the way this offense can play. not only create,
but they can take a little pressure off DeMond so
he doesn't have to carry, be the leading rusher and
the leading passer.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
How worried are you.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
About the running back room right now? Down two guys already.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
No, I mean, it's a real thing, okay? It's not
about being worried. It's about how good can this depth
develop fast. You know, Cade Eldridge, who's a tight end,
he's going to move into, you heard with Coach Fish,
they'll put him in some fullback situations, some eight situations.
He's done that before. He can lead block a little bit.
Maybe some short yardage carries. That's an experience. You lost
(13:11):
a lot of experience with two guys at running back.
You need to be able to have that. You need
to be able to have guys. Will it be a committee?
So I expect to see four runners this game or
how many guys they are willing to bring up. And,
you know, you have a couple freshmen, I mean, true
freshmen coming. that are on the roster. I mean, now
(13:32):
with the five for five rule, it's like we don't
have to worry about hiding these guys anymore. They can
get reps. So I am concerned a little bit because
heading into Big Ten play and as we move throughout
the season, we need a couple of bell cows that
can carry the ball 20 times a game and DeMond
doesn't have to carry it 15 and 20. Now he
can make plays with his feet and extend plays, but
(13:55):
you cannot have number one take hits like that all year.
And he took some big hits in that game down
the field. He cannot do that. He cannot. I mean,
as tough as everybody wants to say, he's not Tim
Tebow right here. This is not, that's not the same.
Now he's physical and he's strong, but we need him
to be able to distribute the football to those, to
our good position players and our skill positions on the outside.
(14:17):
And that's, that's more valuable right now.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Maybe we'll see a little bit of Sano. That guy's
your size playing running back.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
That guy's enormous.
Speaker 7 (14:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Another freshman.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
From down here in, uh, uh, Lake Ridge, you went,
saw him quite often, big, young, fast athlete. And again,
it's next man up mindset. So whoever grabs it at
practice and shines in this game, that's what the coaches
are looking for. Who's going to stand out. All right.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Well, how did the broadcast go? How did it go
with your new partner and your new crazy sideline reporter?
Speaker 3 (14:47):
How did, uh, how did you enjoy week? Number one,
I enjoyed it.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
The apple cup was, was certainly for, for the first
game of the year. It's, a different feel um just
doesn't feel the same but it's great to win but
elise is fantastic i mean we've known each other for
so long uh she is she's she just is she's
not only the consummate pro she makes it fun like
we're we're enjoying it up there it's all part of
(15:14):
reps and timing and all of it and and as
it keeps getting better she's gonna get unbelievable she's it's
and then when you have that goofball on the sideline
i mean that guy i mean every time i just
listen to him i'm I got to hear his voice
all the times. He's always going to be here.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Yes, he is. I mean, my God.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
If you listen to the Huskies broadcast day, you are
getting an awful lot of David Softy Muller.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
I'll tell you that.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
You're getting an earful. You're getting him. The legend continues.
He's never going to stop, and I love him for it.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
I really do. All right, man.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Well, have fun tomorrow. Enjoy the 1230 kickoff. Um, and
we'll talk to you again next week.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (15:59):
Thanks, Chuck.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
All right.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
There he is.
Speaker 2 (16:00):

Speaker 2 (16:06):
He, with his new broadcast team, Elise and softy, uh, tomorrow,
eight 30, the honks will get started and then we'll
have a 1230 kickoff with Elise and with cam on

well on the show. And so I would urge you,
I'm going to keep it a mystery, our mystery guest

Friday for you here today. But here on this radio program...
(17:43):
We got a little business to take care of here
on the show today. And we've been waiting a while
for like the perfect time to bring him back on
the airwaves with us. And this seems like is the
perfect day for it. So joining us, I know you've
missed him. You'd love to hear from him. And certainly
(18:07):
we welcome him back with open arms, if we could
get him around his burly shoulders.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
It is.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
former mariner, and former co-host of Chuck and Buck in
the Mornings, Mr.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Bucky Jacobson. Hello, sir. Hello, Charles. How are you doing?
I'm good. How are you doing? Everybody wants to know
how you're doing. I get asked a thousand times a day.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
I'm doing good.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
I'm doing good.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
Ashley, great to hear your voice too before.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
We came on the air.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
I'm doing good. I'm going to go ahead and just
start off with something that's going to be a little
bit rub it in your face.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
I am very rested.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
I am I have woken up.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
At first, when I was doing.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
The medical stuff, I was still waking up early.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Body just kind of gets accustomed to waking up at 3.30,
4 o'clock, and you're good to go. I outgrew that.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
I got past that. I got over that hurdle. You
got better.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
It's now 6.30.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
I got better. I did. I healed on the sleep
front for sure.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Um, and so, yeah, I'm, uh, I'm feeling good.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Everything's good.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
All the medical stuff for anybody that was concerned is good.
By the way, aside that the big worry was the
cancer in my eyeball thing. That's obviously was not the case.
So I get to keep both of my eyeballs, uh,
the other stuff still kind of working through some stuff,
but there's really nothing that is, is pressing or is
it really a big deal? I think that we talked
about it when I missed time last year with the, what.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
They think is Crohn's.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Disease.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Um, that still is kind of a work in progress,
but for the, for the most part, I mean, I'm
good to go. Um, nothing really to, to worry about
just enjoying some time with the family and, and doing
some other stuff.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Are they enjoying time with you, extra time with you?
That's the big question.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
Um, That's a, I think that probably, uh, there's a, uh,
an ebb and a flow to that. Um, I think, uh,
for the most part, I would say yes. Uh, bear
and I would fly a drone every day and we'll
go play catch with a football and he's got baseball
starting up. He's doing a select baseball thing for, wildcats
(20:10):
baseball this year so that's all kind of ramped up
he's in the middle of soccer season right now um
and by the way i don't teach flopping although my
son does like to like hit the ground a lot
he's on the ground a lot in soccer i don't
know if that's a precursor to being a flopper or
not he's not doing it on purpose he just he
just like kicks and then falls a lot and so
(20:31):
i don't know what's going on with that but Um,
he's enjoying that. I'm coaching just about everything. I've been
coaching all these different sports, baseball and soccer and flag football.
We coming up here, uh, starting Sunday, doing some flag
football out here at Mountside high school. So it's a
lot going on. And I think that they enjoy having
me around more, but I can't guarantee that that's a
(20:52):
hundred percent accurate.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
I'll talk to bear off the air. I'll get the
real answer there.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yeah. We'll get to, we'll get to. we'll have lunch.
He and I, my people will get with his people.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Um, I think a lot of people would like to know, um, about,
I mean, we've suffered through a baseball season here. Uh,
I think a lot of people would like to know
how you've taken in this Mariners baseball season this year.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Uh, well, suffer is the right word.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
It has been a struggle from kind of game one on. Um,
I mean, you know, you guys know me, I'm about
as optimistic as possible. I think that's just something I
can't get out of because of being a baseball player.
So even right now, while this is probably going to
make people's heads explode, I mean, I still have hope.
Now the hope is not great because I think they
(21:40):
have to rattle off 10 wins in a row. Right.
And then hope that Houston gets, you know, spanked around
like we did by Tampa and, and, and whatnot. So it's,
not likely. I mean, I don't know how those percentages
work of what your percentage of making the playoffs are,
but I'm sure it's not very good.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
And understandably.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
So the, the idea of them rattling off 10 wins
seems farfetched because they just haven't put together really a
good two week stretch of baseball for majority of the season.
They been very lackluster and it's, I would go out
and say it's probably the most disappointing season that I
can remember is, I mean, there's been maybe others that
people can debate about, you know, coming off of the
(22:20):
2001 season or coming off of the 1995 season, the
following season, if it didn't live up to expectations. But
this was one where as close as we got last
year and then to play like this for the entirety
of the season is unfortunate. And it's disappointing to say
the least. The ham and egg thing, I know I
used that a lot when I was doing radio with
(22:40):
you and.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
It's a, it's a term for golf, right?
Speaker 4 (22:43):
Where you just kind of figure out a way, maybe
you're not driving the ball real well on this hole,
but then you chip it close. They're doing the opposite
of that. I don't know what the opposite is. It's
like spam and curdled milk. I don't know what it is,
but it's not good. It's it's, if they just don't
find a way to create the magic and, and, and
it's the inverse. If the starter goes out and gives
(23:05):
up two through six innings, then the bullpen gives it up. If,
The offense scores seven, then the starter gave up six
to start the game. It's just they're finding a way
to lose, whereas good teams find a way to win.
So I'm right there as far as the frustration goes
in following this team all year.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
The well-rested Bucky Jacobson, our guest here this morning on
the show that he used to co-host. But of course,
things change.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
They do move on.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I will tell you this, and I... I won't say
much more, and I won't even ask Bucky to respond
to it. I'm still efforting to keep Bucky as part
of our station and part of our morning show going forward.
I don't even know where that's at right now. Don't answer, Bucky.
I could get in trouble if we start talking about
that on the air. But that is the plan. That
is the hope that we'll still hear from Bucky in
(23:56):
coming weeks, years, whatever the case may be, and who
knows if he changes his mind and decides to be
a show host again at some point in his future. Uh, but, um,
I will say that much, but obviously we've come to
an end of an era.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
And I wanted to say to both of you today,
I mean, when.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
All of this started, I mean, I recruited Bucky to
be a talk show host. Sorry about it, buddy. And
then when I found out from Rich that he really
wanted to hire Ashley, I'm like, can I have her?
Speaker 3 (24:27):
So I kind of handpicked the two of you.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And, you know, obviously when you do a radio show together,
not every day you love each other as equally. But
I will just say what a great job I did
in picking the two of you because we put together
a hell of a show. It was a lot of fun.
over the course of the year, a lot more fun
(24:51):
than it wasn't. And so I really think that we
put together one successful radio show here. And for Ashley
to be first in sports radio and Bucky to be
brand new to radio, I think we had a hell
of an achievement. So I just wanted to say that.
I mean, obviously that... Chuck and Buck show has, has
(25:14):
moved on. We're going in another direction without Bucky. Um,
but I just wanted to say to both of you, uh,
thank you very much. And, uh, I think we put together, uh,
one heck of a show here over the last few years.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Well, I just, I'll just say this, man. Thank you.
By the way. I mean, yes, there's obviously ups and downs.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
I don't think anybody in any working, you know, any
field is going to have days where everything's, you know,
unicorns and rainbows with their coworkers, but We most certainly
had way more than we had bad. And even the
bad was just natural, normal, I think, radio broadcasting stuff
over what.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
I learned over the nine years. And I came in
as a straight-up greenhorn.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
I mean, I did the post-game shows, which basically is
not anything remotely close to doing a morning show. I mean,
we'd go hang out at a bar for an hour.
I didn't even know there was a time clock for
the most part. It would be like first half hour,
and then you're like, come on, shut up. We actually
have to do one commercial every Um, that was easy breezy.
It was talking about a game that we just watched.
(26:16):
That was nothing. This was a whole different ball game.
It took me a couple of years to kind of
figure out how to do it. And, you know, it's
like everything else. I was still even down to the
time when I, when I stopped doing it, I was
still learning and still figuring stuff out. And all of
what I learned was from you, uh, you're a true professional. You,
you know, they use the word talent. They call people
(26:40):
like you and Ashley and even me somehow a talent
on the radio. And I, to be honest, when I
first heard that I was like talent. Well, Chuck, to
be honest, you've got talent, man. This is something you
have a talent.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
And a weird ass brain.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Yeah. I got a weird. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
He does have a weird ass brain. There's no doubt
about that.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
But the idea of how to put everything together and
then how to manipulate it when you're driving the bus,
it's a whole different ball game that, Handful of times
I drove the show. It's a lot more to it
than sitting in the number two chair. Ashley knows that
as well. And yet you do it well. And I
learned a lot from you. I don't feel like there's
any part of it that I would look at was
(27:21):
a waste of any years or any time. It was
a huge learning experience. So I appreciate you and all
that you taught me and the partnership that we had. Ashley,
when you came on board, shoot, it's been, what, five
years or so? I mean, when you came on board,
I think you added a ton to the show. I
learned some things from.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
You as well.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
I think that the entirety of the process was a win.
I don't think that there's anybody that can look at
the show that you put together, that we all did together,
as anything less than a colossal success. And, you know,
all things come to an end, including good things.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
And so.
I'm appreciative.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
That's basically, I have a grateful heart, uh, for, for
you guys and for I heart, uh, for, for what
they gave me the opportunity to do. And, you know,
just for me, it just was time to move on
and try some different things.
Speaker 6 (28:14):
I just want to say, yeah, thank you both because
from day one, you were both very welcoming to me
and it's been, now.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
I'm going to get emotional.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
It's been a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Um, so thanks.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I didn't expect this. Well, and we also have an
announcement to make as well, and it's probably why.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Ashley's getting a little emotional.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I did say when we made the Bucky announcement official
that there was going to be another move or two coming.
And so we are here to announce that as well.
Starting on Monday, we're shaking things up.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
A little bit.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Ashley is going to stay with KJR, of course. She's
going to go to the Ian show. um, starting on Monday.
So she and Ian will do their show together going forward. Uh, meanwhile,
Anders is coming to my show. Uh, so Anders will
be joining me officially on Monday. Uh, and then we
are going to add another piece as well, which I
(29:13):
can't announce today because it's still a little bit up
in the air, but we are going to add another
piece on, on Monday. So this, uh, Not only did
we bring Bucky back to finally tie a bow on
that entire story, we also wanted to use this as
the segment to announce that we're making more changes. Ashley
(29:33):
and Ian are going to make a dynamic pair. It's
going to be a.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Lot of fun. Yeah, it's going to be a really
good show. I think you guys are going to be terrific. together.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
And then Anders and Mystery X will be joining me,
if not both Monday, Anders for sure on Monday. And
so a little bit of an adjustment, a little rearrangement
of the furniture here on Sports Radio 93.3 KJR-FM. So
we wanted to use this segment to also obviously make
(30:01):
that announcement. And it's been great working with you.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Yeah, it's been amazing. And I think that I will
say the only way that we can really end this
iteration of the show with the booze news coming up
is I have pretty much some of our best moments.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Over the last five years that I've put together.
Speaker 4 (30:18):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 6 (30:19):
Hopefully people will stay tuned in and listen.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
All right.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Well, Bucky, do you want to stay on the phone?
You want to stay on the phone and listen? Okay.
All right. I'll do booze news. All right.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Let's do booze news next then, uh, on sports radio,
93.3 KJR FM.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
All right.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Final segments, uh, of the week, final segments, uh, of
the show today and final segment of the show, uh,
here on the radio program. Um, Chuck and the mornings
will continue on Monday as, uh, I mentioned in the
last segment, if you're just now joining us, but we're
rearranging some of the lineup. Ashley will be joining Ian
(31:01):
starting next Monday, and Anders Hurst will be joining me,
and a third person will be added to that team
at some point, but I cannot discuss that with you
here today. But certainly, it was time to bring Bucky back,
who we've had here for the last segment. He's back
on the line as well as we get ready for
(31:23):
our final segment and you know how we.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
Do that I'm Ashley and this is the final morning
show booze news sorry I'm taking it with.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Me and there's no more alcohol in.
Speaker 6 (31:35):
Town no more alcohol in town we ran out we
ran out well I promised you guys there was only
one way to end this iteration of the show and
that is with what I think are some of the
best moments that we have all three had over the
last five years so go ahead Travis.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I remember back in my high school team. I don't
know if I've ever mentioned this.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
I'm embarrassed sometimes to admit it. But, yeah, we won 26-0. J. K.
Speaker 5 (31:59):
Yep. L. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
And good job. Well done.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Well done.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Yeah, colon and semicolon. I have one of those. You
have one of those. I have a normal colon. I
have a semicolon. Right.
Speaker 7 (32:15):
There was one day that I just laid on the
couch and watched sports, right? Usually I have a chair
and I sit there. I laid on the couch. The
blanket that you got us for Christmas, I put that
down on the couch to lay on that.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
It's soft.
Speaker 7 (32:26):
And I don't need a blanket on the top because
I'm fat and I'm hot all the time.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Squadoosh has occurred down there in Orlando.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Magic Kingdom, my sweet ass. I'm just going to stay
in that zone now.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
Hitting the baseball is like floating a lazy river. You
don't rock the boat and you just go with the flow.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
I will tell you this.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
Dropping bombs was way more fun than waking up at
3.30 a.m.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Yeah, shocker.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
My undies, as I put them on, like bunched up
on me. And I'm like, well, this isn't. How you
wear underwear?
Speaker 3 (32:57):
I had to redo it today. It's getting special up
in here. I like special sauce.
Speaker 5 (33:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
I'll eat some special sauce. How come we don't use, like,
special sauce for more things?
Speaker 2 (33:07):
If it's a special sauce, shouldn't we just have some
special sauce lying around?
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Lose its specialness. You just dip it. If it's special,
it should go with everything.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Why don't we find out what those special spices are
in the Colonel's chicken that make it.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
To quote the great Screech Powers, the sauce you can have,
but the secret, she's a mine.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
Did you just quote Screech? Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Okay. All right.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
I think that conversation just ended. You should see me
make fart noises under my armpit. Oh, I got detention
for that once.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
Did you?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Really?
Speaker 3 (33:39):
Second grade. Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
No.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
It'd be really bad. Not the weebie-jeebies. Yeah. It makes
you shake, you know? Isn't that what you call those? Heebie-jeebies, usually.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
Oh, heebie-jeebies?
Speaker 5 (33:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
I've never heard of weebies.
Speaker 5 (33:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
I don't know either. Hermiston, we say the weebie-jeebies. Maybe
we don't. I think the heebie-jeebies is right. I just
called it the weebie-jeebies.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
He sounded high.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
The main thing I'm going to be focused on is the.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Mariners and how they look. Just how they look in
their pants. Just how they look in their pants. Yeah,
you know what I mean. Oh, my Lord, Yanni Gord. Oh,
my Lord, Yanni Gord.
Speaker 5 (34:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I couldn't not play it.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Well, first of all, it's Johnny Squash.
Speaker 6 (34:24):
But that doesn't have the same ring. You'd have to
be like, oh my losh.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
Johnny Squash. Oh my gosh, Johnny Squash. Yeah, that was bad.
Speaker 6 (34:32):
That's actually a word.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Oh my losh is good, too.
Speaker 4 (34:34):
It really is.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
Oh my losh, Johnny Squash. I'm saying that from now
on when he scores. Oh my losh. O-M-L. Oh my gosh.
Do they sound kind of like Depeche Mode? A little bit.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
I found a Depeche Mode cassette under the bleachers when
I was in seventh grade.
Speaker 3 (34:52):
At Hermeson High School. I've never heard pronounced it Depeche.
Speaker 6 (34:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
What is it? Depeche. I love Sonny and Cher. If
there's a cake that I don't like, it's not a
good cake.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Period.
Speaker 6 (35:03):
That's fair.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Pretty good rule. Pretty much predicted the future.
Speaker 6 (35:06):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
But it's not a big deal. Not a big deal
at all. No big deal, though. No big deal. Don't
jump to any conclusions. I'm not a god.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
I'm just some, you know, gum-flapping jackass. And look who's
coming up onto the green. It is Patrick Reed.
Speaker 4 (35:25):
Oh, God.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
I hate that guy. Oh, God.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
I almost vomited.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
Sorry.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
I'm looking forward to the big donkeys.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
It feels more like one of those Halloween rubber band
plastic masks that you get at Walgreens the day of Halloween.
Speaker 6 (35:46):
Yeah, the eye holes are a little lower than my
eye holes.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
And for some reason you keep playing with the mouth
hole and you cut your.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
Tongue on it?
Speaker 6 (35:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
I just called my eyes eye holes.
Speaker 6 (35:58):
I said its eye holes are lower than my eye holes.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
That's it. There you go.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
Oh, that's good. We had a lot more, but I
had to fit it into this.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:10):
Well, five years of it.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Yeah. Yeah. I saved every dumb thing we ever said, basically.
Did you know she was keeping a journal of our
dumb things, Bucky?
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Yeah, I did.
Speaker 4 (36:22):
Because I said plenty of them, and then she would
hit the button many a time.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Like, oh, let's bring that back.
Speaker 6 (36:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
Let's bring that back. Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 6 (36:31):
At least they didn't put it in the Oregon touchdown,
the Washington touchdown against Oregon.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Thanks.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
You're welcome. Yeah, thanks.
Speaker 5 (36:37):
Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 7 (36:37):
Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
O-M-L. That's my favorite. All right.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
Well, good to end on a laugh there.
Speaker 4 (36:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Well, thank you again, both. Thank you for everything. Thank
you for being great coworkers. Thank you for being great friends.
Appreciate it. And it's been a blast and I know
we'll stay in touch and I'm hoping that we're still
all three of us part of the station going forward.
And that means I'm hoping that my vision for Bucky
comes true. going forward, and I know that you're going
(37:08):
to kill it with Ian.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
Starting next week.
Speaker 6 (37:10):
And you guys are going to sound great in the mornings,
and I just appreciate the last five years.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Cheers to both of you.
Speaker 5 (37:15):
Cheers.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
Cheers, Bucky.
Speaker 6 (37:16):
And cheers to our listeners. Thank you for all your
support for the last five, ten years.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
Yeah, for sure. Absolutely. All right.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
That'll do it for us. Coming up next, Travis is
even tearing up back there.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
Are you filling in next? Yeah, me and Benton. Oh,
you and Benton. Oh, how about that? The Timo and
Benton show. Timo and Benton. I like it.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Timo and Bento.
Speaker 3 (37:38):
Sports Radio 93.3 KJRFM.
9 o'clock hour on a football Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Great to have you with us. Chuck Powell, Ashley Ryan
with you. Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM. And tomorrow, the
Dawgs back in action right here on the flagship as
Cam Cleland and Elyse Woodward will be on the call.
David Softy-Muller on the sidelines. 12.30 kickoff, the game's greatest
(00:39):
pregame show.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Four and a half hours beforehand, right? Eight o'clock, or
are they starting at 8.30? Why do I never notice?
It's usually four hours. Yeah, it's usually four hours. So yeah,
it should be 8.30.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
All right, 8.30 start to the Saturday affair. And then,
of course, Cam Cleland and Elyse on the call starting
at 1230 kickoff. Joining us on the program is the
former Husky tight end legend and color analyst for the Dawgs,
Cam Cleland.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Hi, Cam.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
Well, good morning. It's a very calm start to Friday.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yeah, very calm. Calm before the storm.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
Yes. Is that what Fridays are like in the studio there?
Everybody's just calm and sedentary. It's the end of the week.
Supposed to be happy at the end of the week.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
I have loafers on and a cardigan, a nice comfortable cardigan. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I'm having a nice day.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
It was pajama day. Maybe I'm.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Having a nice rum punch right now. So, Oh, geez. Uh,
all right. I'm jealous.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
All right.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I'll get fired up because we got Cam Cleland and
we can talk some football.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
All right.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Your first impression of the 2026, uh, Washington Huskies came,
in the Apple Cup on Sunday. So what did you
come away with? What did you think? What kind of
first impression did they make on you?
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Well, my first impression is we got a really good
defense and we have some young players on offense and
we have one of the best quarterbacks in the country
that's going to carry a lot of offensive load on
his shoulders this year. That's what I came away with.
Guys that need more experience, more time on the offensive line,
more time at wide receiver. I also learned that You
don't have enough running back depth. I mean, you do,
(02:17):
but it's getting guys reps, and then suddenly your top
two runners go down, and you're looking everybody in the
back going, okay, who's next? We're all looking around going,
who's going to be that next guy? And then DeMond
Williams takes over, makes an electric play on third down,
which was one of the best runs I've ever seen,
to be able to keep that drive going.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
So I learned a lot.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
I still need to get to know these guys when
they face– further down the road when we get into
conference play and see what it's like versus Minnesota. And
certainly I don't like looking past games whatsoever, but Utah
State lost to Idaho State, who's an FCS team. They
still have some talent and this game still means more,
but it's about getting these younger players. And I think
(02:56):
Coach Fish said it really clearly when I talked to
him after the game, said, we got to get these
guys reps, these younger players reps and eliminate the penalties
and the mistakes because that to me, was the most
glaring thing I noticed that has to be corrected.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
First game of the year, you don't know exactly how
that's going to come together.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
That's historic.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
But today's game, with the lack of practice, tackling, and timing, Um,
I mean, you're pretty much in shorts and shells.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Most of the time.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Uh, it seems like it's almost impossible to click right
out of the gates. I mean, it took Notre Dame
two quarters to get going. You know, I took them
two quarters. But it took them two quarters and it
looked like it took the Huskies three quarters to get
their offense going. And so how much do you pin
that on just everybody's going to start slow in today's
(03:52):
culture offensively because of how hard it is to replicate
game speed and practice these days?
Speaker 5 (04:00):
I think it's a really big deal.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
And also.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
College football has evolved, and it does. It's cyclical.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
It moves.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
It shifts with offense throughout. I mean, offense sets the
tone in college football. It has for years. You can
go all the way back when the option first came in.
What is that? And it was electric. And then you
saw tempo offense come in with what Chip Kelly did
at Oregon and huddle up and no huddles. And it
changed the way everybody saw offense. We have spoiled. We
(04:29):
saw games in the 50s. The Big 12, before they
got realigned, was terrible. Everybody was scoring 50, but you
know what defense does? They catch up and they, they only,
not only do they catch up, they can scheme it.
It's on film. And then certainly it's not always that
playing defense is easier at the beginning of a season,
but it's just, it's doesn't require as much because offense
(04:50):
has shifts motions. It has lots of details. It has
lots of nuances. There's lots of verbiage in an offensive
call and you have guys that are trying to, okay,
do I pass block? These aren't excuses. These are factual realities.
Offense takes a while. It works that way in the
NFL also. This is just how football will always be.
But football wins at the line of scrimmage. That has
never changed. And that will never, ever change. And so
(05:13):
if you don't win at the line of scrimmage running
and then being able to rush the passer and control
the line of scrimmage against the run game and stop
the run, then you're going to look really, really bad
all the time. And that's something that this Husky group
with this offensive line and their younger players there and
with the running back situation, are going to have their
work cut out for them moving forward.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
One other question along those lines. First game. I mean,
it's a rivalry game. It's your first game. For a
lot of players, their first game ever. I mean, we
had a lot of freshmen on the football field on Saturday,
and so you understand that they're a little overhyped for
the game. But there were a lot of, let's call
them foolish penalties in the Apple Cup, and most of
those foolish penalties were committed by the Huskies. Are you
(05:57):
worried at all that that's an issue with this team
or are you just chalking that up again to game one?
There was a lot of reasons to be overhyped and
they were just purely overhyped.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
Well, I, I'm going to chalk that up to immaturity
and experience. It's just, it's again, this is facts. This,
these guys are young. They don't have the experience. This
goes in every job industry or anything we do. There's
a reason why Indiana had 18 fifth and six-year players
win a national championship. Oh, by the way, they were
playing a Miami team that had 25th and six-year player.
(06:30):
They had a 25-year-old quarterback. Experience certainly does matter when
you look at the depth and talent. Look at the
age groups of players. You have to have that. And
if you're a young kid and you're going to finish
and you want to look great for your coach and
you're excited and you're running out of bounds, Like the shot,
I mean, you saw on the sideline. I mean, Ryland Dillard,
I mean, he's going for the ball. I mean, is
(06:50):
it a targeting in slow motion?
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Well, yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
You know how many targetings we could call in college
football and football if we slowed every hit down? There
wouldn't be any players left on the field. Okay, we
might as well just play flag football and let everybody
touch each other and graze each other and say, you're down.
But he was playing fast. But the hits out of
bounds are steps. Those are maturity things. Do I need
to hit this shot? Do I need to slow down?
(07:14):
I have to know how to play. with speed. I
know how to get all of that comes with knowing
how to handle the speed. Ask any athlete, any former athlete,
you go from peewee football to high school football.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Oh my God, these guys are huge. The game is fast.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Give them a couple of weeks. Oh, I caught up.
It's the same situation year in and year out. And
we see these younger players, the game has to slow
down to them and everybody has to get reps. You
cannot simulate reps like that in practice. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
You can have game simulation and, You just can't do
it in practice. You can't get that type of energy
when the stadium's full and the music's on and everybody's
ready to go.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Cam Cleland is with us. This segment brought to you
by Warrior Injury Law as we talk some Huskies football
every week.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
We're doing it on Friday.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
We won't be doing it on Fridays during most of
the season, but that damn Seahawk Wednesday thing kind of
screwed up the schedule this week.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Good one, though.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
I'll take that.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Yeah, we're catching up with Cam here today. uh, on
Chuck in the morning sports radio, 93.3 KJR FM. Well, I've,
I've highlighted a couple of the things that did not
go so well. I do want to talk about something
positive with this team because it was our first look
at a lot of those freshmen. Jones ends up with
an interception that was big. Uh, Ramzak looks like a man. He,
(08:30):
he looks like a weapon and Derek Coleman, Bruce, uh,
I don't know if you came away or if you
have the same opinion, uh, I mean, that guy looks
like a future superstar. I mean, I don't want to
get ahead of it. He's a freshman playing one game,
but that guy looks like a monster.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
Yeah, well, he doesn't even look like a freshman. He
looks like a 40-year-old man that should be chopping wood
out in the middle of the– It's like Nick Bosa.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
Exactly. He's massive. He almost decapitated the official. Great job
by the official to duck because he almost on that
right hook that he came up in. He looks– Fantastic.
He's stout at the run. He's super strong. But to me,
the guy that jumped off the screen to me was Ramzak.
For another freshman, a stand-up outside edge, which I'm telling you,
(09:15):
there's not a lot of young players that can come
in and play big-time college football and be out on
an edge because it requires you to keep your shoulder
free for run defense. Past rushing against the best guys,
the best tackles, most experienced players. He was fast to
the football. He was smart with it. They'll be smart
because they have a lot of depth. And Jacob Lane
(09:36):
is an NFL guy on the other side. You saw
Isaiah Ward. They have depth to be able to let
him develop a little bit. If he plays 25, 30
plays a game at the start of the season and
you can rotate those guys, that's what Coach Walters does
really well. That front four and even into the linebacker crew,
he rotates excellent. Now, depending on how the offense goes
(09:59):
with time, but the linebacker core jumped off the charts
to me. I mean, Jacob Manu, he was one of
the best players on the field. No question. He played
out of his mind. And so the depth on defense, guys,
this is a really big deal, how good this defense
is going to be.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
No doubt. No doubt.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
All right.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
So Utah State tomorrow. Obviously, the expectation is a win,
maybe even a blowout win for a team that. against
a team that lost to Idaho State by 12 last week.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
And so how do you balance this?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
You've got to get your team sharp for Big Ten play,
and yet you'd like to have a couple of gimme's
in order to work on some of these things that
you and I have been talking about here in this segment.
So what's the balance there of how do you get
ready for the top competition not facing top competition and–
(10:52):
How do you work on things without just rubbing it
in the face of the.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Opponent if you're up 20 in the second half?
Speaker 5 (11:00):
Well, I think you do rub it in the face.
I mean, do you want me to be honest with you?
You saw what they did to UC Davis last year.
This isn't a feel-friendly type situation because you have to
get ready and you have to get these players ready.
I'm going to beat this over and over with these
younger guys, but you have to clean up the details.
That's what I want to see this football game. is
the biggest jump, and this is, and Chuck, you've probably seen,
(11:21):
you've watched enough football, you understand the biggest jump in
football is week one to week two. It's a huge
jump because obviously we don't have preseason football in college.
So you get to see veteran players that are like, okay,
I'm settling. But the young guys are like, all right,
I got these nerves over. I know what it's like
to play at this speed. I can settle in a
little bit. Now I know how this to react. I
(11:44):
can anticipate a little bit more. So I expect a
really big jump, not only because your opponent is maybe
not as good as you, but because you're going to
prepare a little bit different. You know what you're going
to handle it. I need execution numbers. I need penalties.
I need to see a really good on first down
on the offense. I want to see mistakes cleaned up
with the positions by Cody green at left tackle, not
(12:05):
missing on blocks on edges. I want to see him
and John Mills move double teams really, really well. Great
footwork on that side. I want the defense to play fast,
and I want them to bring tons of pressure because
the quarterback, he's pretty elusive. He's pretty quick. He'll make
some good throws. He made a few interceptions against Idaho
State under pressure from his throwing side. I want to
(12:25):
see those executions sharp, hardly any penalties, create turnovers, and
I want to see 50-plus points on the board because
that's the way this offense can play. not only create,
but they can take a little pressure off DeMond so
he doesn't have to carry, be the leading rusher and
the leading passer.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
How worried are you.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
About the running back room right now? Down two guys already.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
No, I mean, it's a real thing, okay? It's not
about being worried. It's about how good can this depth
develop fast. You know, Cade Eldridge, who's a tight end,
he's going to move into, you heard with Coach Fish,
they'll put him in some fullback situations, some eight situations.
He's done that before. He can lead block a little bit.
Maybe some short yardage carries. That's an experience. You lost
(13:11):
a lot of experience with two guys at running back.
You need to be able to have that. You need
to be able to have guys. Will it be a committee?
So I expect to see four runners this game or
how many guys they are willing to bring up. And,
you know, you have a couple freshmen, I mean, true
freshmen coming. that are on the roster. I mean, now
(13:32):
with the five for five rule, it's like we don't
have to worry about hiding these guys anymore. They can
get reps. So I am concerned a little bit because
heading into Big Ten play and as we move throughout
the season, we need a couple of bell cows that
can carry the ball 20 times a game and DeMond
doesn't have to carry it 15 and 20. Now he
can make plays with his feet and extend plays, but
(13:55):
you cannot have number one take hits like that all year.
And he took some big hits in that game down
the field. He cannot do that. He cannot. I mean,
as tough as everybody wants to say, he's not Tim
Tebow right here. This is not, that's not the same.
Now he's physical and he's strong, but we need him
to be able to distribute the football to those, to
our good position players and our skill positions on the outside.
(14:17):
And that's, that's more valuable right now.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Maybe we'll see a little bit of Sano. That guy's
your size playing running back.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
That guy's enormous.
Speaker 7 (14:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Another freshman.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
From down here in, uh, uh, Lake Ridge, you went,
saw him quite often, big, young, fast athlete. And again,
it's next man up mindset. So whoever grabs it at
practice and shines in this game, that's what the coaches
are looking for. Who's going to stand out. All right.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Well, how did the broadcast go? How did it go
with your new partner and your new crazy sideline reporter?
Speaker 3 (14:47):
How did, uh, how did you enjoy week? Number one,
I enjoyed it.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
The apple cup was, was certainly for, for the first
game of the year. It's, a different feel um just
doesn't feel the same but it's great to win but
elise is fantastic i mean we've known each other for
so long uh she is she's she just is she's
not only the consummate pro she makes it fun like
we're we're enjoying it up there it's all part of
(15:14):
reps and timing and all of it and and as
it keeps getting better she's gonna get unbelievable she's it's
and then when you have that goofball on the sideline
i mean that guy i mean every time i just
listen to him i'm I got to hear his voice
all the times. He's always going to be here.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Yes, he is. I mean, my God.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
If you listen to the Huskies broadcast day, you are
getting an awful lot of David Softy Muller.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
I'll tell you that.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
You're getting an earful. You're getting him. The legend continues.
He's never going to stop, and I love him for it.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
I really do. All right, man.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Well, have fun tomorrow. Enjoy the 1230 kickoff. Um, and
we'll talk to you again next week.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (15:59):
Thanks, Chuck.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
All right.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
There he is.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Cam Cleland, the great Cam Cleland, former Husky tight end legend.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Now the voice of the dogs.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
He, with his new broadcast team, Elise and softy, uh, tomorrow,
eight 30, the honks will get started and then we'll
have a 1230 kickoff with Elise and with cam on
the call.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
He joins us every week.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
So, uh, we look forward to that again this year
and his segment is brought to you by warrior injury law.
led by attorney Rob Iddins, a fifth-generation Pacific Northwesterner, Marine
Corps veteran, and UW graduate. If you've been injured, call 253-WARRIOR.
That's 253-WARRIOR, Warrior Injury Law, battle tested. All right, let's see.
(16:43):
Coming up next here on our radio program, you're going
to want to stick around because it's been a while
since you've heard from this person. I think you're going
to be excited to hear from this person. And we
have an announcement that we're getting ready to make as
well on the show. And so I would urge you,
I'm going to keep it a mystery, our mystery guest
(17:05):
in the back room, eating up all the M &
Ms that we've put.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
In the green room. And the Reese's peanut butter cups. Well, right.
He did supply them. So stick around.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
You're going to want to hear this right here on
Chuck in the morning, Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM. And
then on the 9.50 side of things, we've got Sounders
Galaxy tomorrow at 7.30, plus two more games in the
National Football League on Sunday. So, yes, Beef Commission Football
Friday for you here today. But here on this radio program...
(17:43):
We got a little business to take care of here
on the show today. And we've been waiting a while
for like the perfect time to bring him back on
the airwaves with us. And this seems like is the
perfect day for it. So joining us, I know you've
missed him. You'd love to hear from him. And certainly
(18:07):
we welcome him back with open arms, if we could
get him around his burly shoulders.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
It is.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
former mariner, and former co-host of Chuck and Buck in
the Mornings, Mr.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
Bucky Jacobson. Hello, sir. Hello, Charles. How are you doing?
I'm good. How are you doing? Everybody wants to know
how you're doing. I get asked a thousand times a day.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
I'm doing good.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
I'm doing good.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
Ashley, great to hear your voice too before.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
We came on the air.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
I'm doing good. I'm going to go ahead and just
start off with something that's going to be a little
bit rub it in your face.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
I am very rested.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
I am I have woken up.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
At first, when I was doing.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
The medical stuff, I was still waking up early.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Body just kind of gets accustomed to waking up at 3.30,
4 o'clock, and you're good to go. I outgrew that.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
I got past that. I got over that hurdle. You
got better.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
It's now 6.30.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
I got better. I did. I healed on the sleep
front for sure.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Um, and so, yeah, I'm, uh, I'm feeling good.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Everything's good.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
All the medical stuff for anybody that was concerned is good.
By the way, aside that the big worry was the
cancer in my eyeball thing. That's obviously was not the case.
So I get to keep both of my eyeballs, uh,
the other stuff still kind of working through some stuff,
but there's really nothing that is, is pressing or is
it really a big deal? I think that we talked
about it when I missed time last year with the, what.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
They think is Crohn's.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Disease.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Um, that still is kind of a work in progress,
but for the, for the most part, I mean, I'm
good to go. Um, nothing really to, to worry about
just enjoying some time with the family and, and doing
some other stuff.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Are they enjoying time with you, extra time with you?
That's the big question.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
Um, That's a, I think that probably, uh, there's a, uh,
an ebb and a flow to that. Um, I think, uh,
for the most part, I would say yes. Uh, bear
and I would fly a drone every day and we'll
go play catch with a football and he's got baseball
starting up. He's doing a select baseball thing for, wildcats
(20:10):
baseball this year so that's all kind of ramped up
he's in the middle of soccer season right now um
and by the way i don't teach flopping although my
son does like to like hit the ground a lot
he's on the ground a lot in soccer i don't
know if that's a precursor to being a flopper or
not he's not doing it on purpose he just he
just like kicks and then falls a lot and so
(20:31):
i don't know what's going on with that but Um,
he's enjoying that. I'm coaching just about everything. I've been
coaching all these different sports, baseball and soccer and flag football.
We coming up here, uh, starting Sunday, doing some flag
football out here at Mountside high school. So it's a
lot going on. And I think that they enjoy having
me around more, but I can't guarantee that that's a
(20:52):
hundred percent accurate.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
I'll talk to bear off the air. I'll get the
real answer there.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yeah. We'll get to, we'll get to. we'll have lunch.
He and I, my people will get with his people.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Um, I think a lot of people would like to know, um, about,
I mean, we've suffered through a baseball season here. Uh,
I think a lot of people would like to know
how you've taken in this Mariners baseball season this year.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Uh, well, suffer is the right word.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
It has been a struggle from kind of game one on. Um,
I mean, you know, you guys know me, I'm about
as optimistic as possible. I think that's just something I
can't get out of because of being a baseball player.
So even right now, while this is probably going to
make people's heads explode, I mean, I still have hope.
Now the hope is not great because I think they
(21:40):
have to rattle off 10 wins in a row. Right.
And then hope that Houston gets, you know, spanked around
like we did by Tampa and, and, and whatnot. So it's,
not likely. I mean, I don't know how those percentages
work of what your percentage of making the playoffs are,
but I'm sure it's not very good.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
And understandably.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
So the, the idea of them rattling off 10 wins
seems farfetched because they just haven't put together really a
good two week stretch of baseball for majority of the season.
They been very lackluster and it's, I would go out
and say it's probably the most disappointing season that I
can remember is, I mean, there's been maybe others that
people can debate about, you know, coming off of the
(22:20):
2001 season or coming off of the 1995 season, the
following season, if it didn't live up to expectations. But
this was one where as close as we got last
year and then to play like this for the entirety
of the season is unfortunate. And it's disappointing to say
the least. The ham and egg thing, I know I
used that a lot when I was doing radio with
(22:40):
you and.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
It's a, it's a term for golf, right?
Speaker 4 (22:43):
Where you just kind of figure out a way, maybe
you're not driving the ball real well on this hole,
but then you chip it close. They're doing the opposite
of that. I don't know what the opposite is. It's
like spam and curdled milk. I don't know what it is,
but it's not good. It's it's, if they just don't
find a way to create the magic and, and, and
it's the inverse. If the starter goes out and gives
(23:05):
up two through six innings, then the bullpen gives it up. If,
The offense scores seven, then the starter gave up six
to start the game. It's just they're finding a way
to lose, whereas good teams find a way to win.
So I'm right there as far as the frustration goes
in following this team all year.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
The well-rested Bucky Jacobson, our guest here this morning on
the show that he used to co-host. But of course,
things change.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
They do move on.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I will tell you this, and I... I won't say
much more, and I won't even ask Bucky to respond
to it. I'm still efforting to keep Bucky as part
of our station and part of our morning show going forward.
I don't even know where that's at right now. Don't answer, Bucky.
I could get in trouble if we start talking about
that on the air. But that is the plan. That
is the hope that we'll still hear from Bucky in
(23:56):
coming weeks, years, whatever the case may be, and who
knows if he changes his mind and decides to be
a show host again at some point in his future. Uh, but, um,
I will say that much, but obviously we've come to
an end of an era.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
And I wanted to say to both of you today,
I mean, when.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
All of this started, I mean, I recruited Bucky to
be a talk show host. Sorry about it, buddy. And
then when I found out from Rich that he really
wanted to hire Ashley, I'm like, can I have her?
Speaker 3 (24:27):
So I kind of handpicked the two of you.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And, you know, obviously when you do a radio show together,
not every day you love each other as equally. But
I will just say what a great job I did
in picking the two of you because we put together
a hell of a show. It was a lot of fun.
over the course of the year, a lot more fun
(24:51):
than it wasn't. And so I really think that we
put together one successful radio show here. And for Ashley
to be first in sports radio and Bucky to be
brand new to radio, I think we had a hell
of an achievement. So I just wanted to say that.
I mean, obviously that... Chuck and Buck show has, has
(25:14):
moved on. We're going in another direction without Bucky. Um,
but I just wanted to say to both of you, uh,
thank you very much. And, uh, I think we put together, uh,
one heck of a show here over the last few years.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Well, I just, I'll just say this, man. Thank you.
By the way. I mean, yes, there's obviously ups and downs.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
I don't think anybody in any working, you know, any
field is going to have days where everything's, you know,
unicorns and rainbows with their coworkers, but We most certainly
had way more than we had bad. And even the
bad was just natural, normal, I think, radio broadcasting stuff
over what.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
I learned over the nine years. And I came in
as a straight-up greenhorn.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
I mean, I did the post-game shows, which basically is
not anything remotely close to doing a morning show. I mean,
we'd go hang out at a bar for an hour.
I didn't even know there was a time clock for
the most part. It would be like first half hour,
and then you're like, come on, shut up. We actually
have to do one commercial every Um, that was easy breezy.
It was talking about a game that we just watched.
(26:16):
That was nothing. This was a whole different ball game.
It took me a couple of years to kind of
figure out how to do it. And, you know, it's
like everything else. I was still even down to the
time when I, when I stopped doing it, I was
still learning and still figuring stuff out. And all of
what I learned was from you, uh, you're a true professional. You,
you know, they use the word talent. They call people
(26:40):
like you and Ashley and even me somehow a talent
on the radio. And I, to be honest, when I
first heard that I was like talent. Well, Chuck, to
be honest, you've got talent, man. This is something you
have a talent.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
And a weird ass brain.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Yeah. I got a weird. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
He does have a weird ass brain. There's no doubt
about that.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
But the idea of how to put everything together and
then how to manipulate it when you're driving the bus,
it's a whole different ball game that, Handful of times
I drove the show. It's a lot more to it
than sitting in the number two chair. Ashley knows that
as well. And yet you do it well. And I
learned a lot from you. I don't feel like there's
any part of it that I would look at was
(27:21):
a waste of any years or any time. It was
a huge learning experience. So I appreciate you and all
that you taught me and the partnership that we had. Ashley,
when you came on board, shoot, it's been, what, five
years or so? I mean, when you came on board,
I think you added a ton to the show. I
learned some things from.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
You as well.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
I think that the entirety of the process was a win.
I don't think that there's anybody that can look at
the show that you put together, that we all did together,
as anything less than a colossal success. And, you know,
all things come to an end, including good things.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
And so.
I'm appreciative.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
That's basically, I have a grateful heart, uh, for, for
you guys and for I heart, uh, for, for what
they gave me the opportunity to do. And, you know,
just for me, it just was time to move on
and try some different things.
Speaker 6 (28:14):
I just want to say, yeah, thank you both because
from day one, you were both very welcoming to me
and it's been, now.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
I'm going to get emotional.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
It's been a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Um, so thanks.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I didn't expect this. Well, and we also have an
announcement to make as well, and it's probably why.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Ashley's getting a little emotional.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I did say when we made the Bucky announcement official
that there was going to be another move or two coming.
And so we are here to announce that as well.
Starting on Monday, we're shaking things up.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
A little bit.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Ashley is going to stay with KJR, of course. She's
going to go to the Ian show. um, starting on Monday.
So she and Ian will do their show together going forward. Uh, meanwhile,
Anders is coming to my show. Uh, so Anders will
be joining me officially on Monday. Uh, and then we
are going to add another piece as well, which I
(29:13):
can't announce today because it's still a little bit up
in the air, but we are going to add another
piece on, on Monday. So this, uh, Not only did
we bring Bucky back to finally tie a bow on
that entire story, we also wanted to use this as
the segment to announce that we're making more changes. Ashley
(29:33):
and Ian are going to make a dynamic pair. It's
going to be a.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Lot of fun. Yeah, it's going to be a really
good show. I think you guys are going to be terrific. together.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
And then Anders and Mystery X will be joining me,
if not both Monday, Anders for sure on Monday. And
so a little bit of an adjustment, a little rearrangement
of the furniture here on Sports Radio 93.3 KJR-FM. So
we wanted to use this segment to also obviously make
(30:01):
that announcement. And it's been great working with you.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Yeah, it's been amazing. And I think that I will
say the only way that we can really end this
iteration of the show with the booze news coming up
is I have pretty much some of our best moments.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Over the last five years that I've put together.
Speaker 4 (30:18):
Oh, wow.
Speaker 6 (30:19):
Hopefully people will stay tuned in and listen.
Speaker 5 (30:22):
All right.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Well, Bucky, do you want to stay on the phone?
You want to stay on the phone and listen? Okay.
All right. I'll do booze news. All right.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Let's do booze news next then, uh, on sports radio,
93.3 KJR FM.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
All right.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Final segments, uh, of the week, final segments, uh, of
the show today and final segment of the show, uh,
here on the radio program. Um, Chuck and the mornings
will continue on Monday as, uh, I mentioned in the
last segment, if you're just now joining us, but we're
rearranging some of the lineup. Ashley will be joining Ian
(31:01):
starting next Monday, and Anders Hurst will be joining me,
and a third person will be added to that team
at some point, but I cannot discuss that with you
here today. But certainly, it was time to bring Bucky back,
who we've had here for the last segment. He's back
on the line as well as we get ready for
(31:23):
our final segment and you know how we.
Speaker 6 (31:25):
Do that I'm Ashley and this is the final morning
show booze news sorry I'm taking it with.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Me and there's no more alcohol in.
Speaker 6 (31:35):
Town no more alcohol in town we ran out we
ran out well I promised you guys there was only
one way to end this iteration of the show and
that is with what I think are some of the
best moments that we have all three had over the
last five years so go ahead Travis.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I remember back in my high school team. I don't
know if I've ever mentioned this.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
I'm embarrassed sometimes to admit it. But, yeah, we won 26-0. J. K.
Speaker 5 (31:59):
Yep. L. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
And good job. Well done.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Well done.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
Yeah, colon and semicolon. I have one of those. You
have one of those. I have a normal colon. I
have a semicolon. Right.
Speaker 7 (32:15):
There was one day that I just laid on the
couch and watched sports, right? Usually I have a chair
and I sit there. I laid on the couch. The
blanket that you got us for Christmas, I put that
down on the couch to lay on that.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
It's soft.
Speaker 7 (32:26):
And I don't need a blanket on the top because
I'm fat and I'm hot all the time.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Squadoosh has occurred down there in Orlando.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Magic Kingdom, my sweet ass. I'm just going to stay
in that zone now.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
Hitting the baseball is like floating a lazy river. You
don't rock the boat and you just go with the flow.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
I will tell you this.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
Dropping bombs was way more fun than waking up at
3.30 a.m.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Yeah, shocker.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
My undies, as I put them on, like bunched up
on me. And I'm like, well, this isn't. How you
wear underwear?
Speaker 3 (32:57):
I had to redo it today. It's getting special up
in here. I like special sauce.
Speaker 5 (33:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
I'll eat some special sauce. How come we don't use, like,
special sauce for more things?
Speaker 2 (33:07):
If it's a special sauce, shouldn't we just have some
special sauce lying around?
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Lose its specialness. You just dip it. If it's special,
it should go with everything.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Why don't we find out what those special spices are
in the Colonel's chicken that make it.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
To quote the great Screech Powers, the sauce you can have,
but the secret, she's a mine.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
Did you just quote Screech? Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Okay. All right.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
I think that conversation just ended. You should see me
make fart noises under my armpit. Oh, I got detention
for that once.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
Did you?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Really?
Speaker 3 (33:39):
Second grade. Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
No.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
It'd be really bad. Not the weebie-jeebies. Yeah. It makes
you shake, you know? Isn't that what you call those? Heebie-jeebies, usually.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
Oh, heebie-jeebies?
Speaker 5 (33:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
I've never heard of weebies.
Speaker 5 (33:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (33:55):
I don't know either. Hermiston, we say the weebie-jeebies. Maybe
we don't. I think the heebie-jeebies is right. I just
called it the weebie-jeebies.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
He sounded high.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
The main thing I'm going to be focused on is the.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Mariners and how they look. Just how they look in
their pants. Just how they look in their pants. Yeah,
you know what I mean. Oh, my Lord, Yanni Gord. Oh,
my Lord, Yanni Gord.
Speaker 5 (34:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I couldn't not play it.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Well, first of all, it's Johnny Squash.
Speaker 6 (34:24):
But that doesn't have the same ring. You'd have to
be like, oh my losh.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
Johnny Squash. Oh my gosh, Johnny Squash. Yeah, that was bad.
Speaker 6 (34:32):
That's actually a word.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Oh my losh is good, too.
Speaker 4 (34:34):
It really is.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
Oh my losh, Johnny Squash. I'm saying that from now
on when he scores. Oh my losh. O-M-L. Oh my gosh.
Do they sound kind of like Depeche Mode? A little bit.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
I found a Depeche Mode cassette under the bleachers when
I was in seventh grade.
Speaker 3 (34:52):
At Hermeson High School. I've never heard pronounced it Depeche.
Speaker 6 (34:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
What is it? Depeche. I love Sonny and Cher. If
there's a cake that I don't like, it's not a
good cake.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Period.
Speaker 6 (35:03):
That's fair.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Pretty good rule. Pretty much predicted the future.
Speaker 6 (35:06):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
But it's not a big deal. Not a big deal
at all. No big deal, though. No big deal. Don't
jump to any conclusions. I'm not a god.
Speaker 3 (35:17):
I'm just some, you know, gum-flapping jackass. And look who's
coming up onto the green. It is Patrick Reed.
Speaker 4 (35:25):
Oh, God.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
I hate that guy. Oh, God.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
I almost vomited.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
Sorry.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
I'm looking forward to the big donkeys.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
It feels more like one of those Halloween rubber band
plastic masks that you get at Walgreens the day of Halloween.
Speaker 6 (35:46):
Yeah, the eye holes are a little lower than my
eye holes.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
And for some reason you keep playing with the mouth
hole and you cut your.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
Tongue on it?
Speaker 6 (35:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
I just called my eyes eye holes.
Speaker 6 (35:58):
I said its eye holes are lower than my eye holes.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
That's it. There you go.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
Oh, that's good. We had a lot more, but I
had to fit it into this.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:10):
Well, five years of it.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Yeah. Yeah. I saved every dumb thing we ever said, basically.
Did you know she was keeping a journal of our
dumb things, Bucky?
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Yeah, I did.
Speaker 4 (36:22):
Because I said plenty of them, and then she would
hit the button many a time.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Like, oh, let's bring that back.
Speaker 6 (36:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
Let's bring that back. Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 6 (36:31):
At least they didn't put it in the Oregon touchdown,
the Washington touchdown against Oregon.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Thanks.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
You're welcome. Yeah, thanks.
Speaker 5 (36:37):
Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 7 (36:37):
Oh, my gosh.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
O-M-L. That's my favorite. All right.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
Well, good to end on a laugh there.
Speaker 4 (36:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
Well, thank you again, both. Thank you for everything. Thank
you for being great coworkers. Thank you for being great friends.
Appreciate it. And it's been a blast and I know
we'll stay in touch and I'm hoping that we're still
all three of us part of the station going forward.
And that means I'm hoping that my vision for Bucky
comes true. going forward, and I know that you're going
(37:08):
to kill it with Ian.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
Starting next week.
Speaker 6 (37:10):
And you guys are going to sound great in the mornings,
and I just appreciate the last five years.
Speaker 2 (37:14):

support for the last five, ten years.

even tearing up back there.
