Speaker 1 (00:00):
Weird week.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Well, we got a big show. We're at the five
twenty Bar and Grill until seven o'clock tonight. Mike Florio
is gonna join us here at a matter of minutes
and talk some National Football League with us.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Petros is gonna be with us at four.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
He'll be with us an hour before Game five of
the World Series. I am telling you right now. If
I was a weekly guest on somebody's show and the
Mariners were playing in the World Series at five o'clock
and I had to do a hit with that station
at four pm, There's no way I'm doing it.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Got a chance in hell I'm doing it. Petros doesn't care.
He doesn't give a damn he does. He doesn't give Is.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
There any LA team he likes?

Speaker 2 (00:36):
No, not really, not really. I think he just likes
to fun with the whole thing. He gets, you know,
kind of turned off. I'd be able to take this
too seriously. And I'm kind of the same way as Sam.
You guys know that. But he's gonna be at home
watching the game with his kid. Okay, so he's not
in New York per se. If the game was in LA,
I don't know. We'll ask him at four o'clock. Were
you there for game one or two? And if they
go back to LA for game six, we would be

(00:58):
there for game six. I gotta think there's a chance
and she'll be there for Game six or game seven
if they make it. But yeah, he's uh, he's not
really in the kind of rooting for anybody. He's just
pissed off at the world.

Speaker 4 (01:07):
Does he root against I know he roots against Lebron
he does. Does he root against the Lakers? Does he
root against the l A teams? To ask him that,
because you know, that would kind of tick me off
as a listener of the show if I'm a massive
LA sports fan and one of the hosts is like, oh,
by all my teams, I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Like, it pisses people off when you openly root for Gonzaga.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
I'm not rooting against any of our teams. Yeah, but
Jackson's rooting for agen Zaga.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
Who cares? Does that irritate people that he does?

Speaker 1 (01:34):
That it only irritates you?

Speaker 4 (01:35):
No, that's not truebody else is that true?

Speaker 3 (01:38):
That it only irritates me that Dick roots for Gonzaga?

Speaker 5 (01:41):
And then that's nothing not true because I walk in
the test line and the text line I would say,
I would say, though it only lightly annoys me, it
doesn't like it doesn't heavily annoy me, it doesn't.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
I gotta be honest with you. I'm kind of more
with Jackson now. It kind of lightly annoys me. Now,
I just do it because it gets you work, though
it is kind of easy to push your buttons.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
To be totally honest.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
Well, the funny thing they're gonna be good this, You're
gonna bring it up every year. I mean, they're The
funny thing is that I would say, conservatively ninety percent
of all times Gonzaga is brought up on this radio show,
it's by you and not me.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Well, that's still ten percent for you, pal, doesn't it
doesn't totally absolve you. I mean, it puts the blame
on me nine times out of ten. That's fine, But
you're not totally off the hook there either. How about
this conversation that Ian was having about the ticket prices
and the fifteen and fifteen I gotta be honest with you.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
I don't know if this is true or not.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
I feel like this whole fifteen and fifteen what's going
on at Lumenfield thing phenomenon I think started with us
on this show.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
I feel like we were talking. I feel like we
were ahead of the curve on Monday.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
I feel like, no, like weeks ago, we were talking
about this because if they lose this game, they'll be
fifteen and fifteen. I think we've been bringing us up
for weeks and months on the air, even going back
to last year. I feel like there's a lot of
people in this business, including the guy that does New
to three, that owe us a debt of gratitude for
providing content for their show or their public I got
to cut big time whatever.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Ian's making off his show.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Whenever he gets specifically from that conversation, we should get
in temper okay or twelve percent?

Speaker 3 (03:07):
How's that?

Speaker 2 (03:08):
But he he brought this up, and he was taking
some you know, text, some some voicemails and stuff, and
I heard somebody call in and leave a message about
the ticket brokers, that the ticket brokers are the ones
that are messing this whole thing up.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
You can blame them, blah blah blah.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
And look, you want to blame the ticket brokers for
existing and giving people a chance to jack up the
price of their own tickets for resale. Okay, that's fine, whatever,
But don't forget guys that one of the biggest ticket
brokers out there is Ticketmaster, who the Seahawks direct you

(03:44):
to when you want to resell tickets on their website
or on their app. If I put my seats up
for sale, for example this Sunday for the RAM game.
If I go into the app and I want to
sell my tickets, they don't take it a stub Hub.
They don't take it a venue Kings, they don't take
it a grub Hub or whatever the hell it is.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Right, they take you to Ticketmaster and they get a cut.
They get a cut out of this, and they will
sign they exactly.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
They're gonna sell you a ticket for one hundred bucks,
you'll resell it for fifty. They want their fight dollars back.
They want to cut on both freaking sides. So the Seahawks,
the NFL has embraced this, They've embraced the secondary market.
They're cutting deals with brokers, they're cutting deals with partners
that resell their own tickets. You go to Ticketmaster, you
see blue dots, you see red dots all over the place.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
You know, like every ticket is supposed to be.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Sold but if you go to the website, you see
tickets for sale everywhere on the tickets on the Seahawks
official website. So don't forget to mention that, all right,
don't forget to mention it.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
I have no problem with the secondary market and the
ticket brokers, but if you want to sell to Seahawks fans, yep,
you can't go that way.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
You have to do Twitter. Like Jackson said yesterday, what
was you said, Reddit? Jackson? Reddit? There's ways to sell
it to Seahawks fans. Let's get to Mike Florio, joining
us right now each.

(05:41):
our friend from Pro Football Talk dot com, the NFL,

Speaker 3 (05:44):
Michael Florio, how are you, Pelph?

Speaker 8 (05:46):
I am doing great today, gentlemen.

Speaker 9 (05:48):
How are you?

Speaker 3 (05:49):
We are good? We are good?

Speaker 10 (05:50):
Thank you you fine, sirs.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
We're good, We're gabulous. Thank you for asking. We can
we can just sense the sincerity in your voice.

Speaker 8 (05:58):
Really care when they say how are you? Does anyone
really care? Hey, how are you well?

Speaker 3 (06:04):
If it's a friend, you have to hear your complaining?
I would.

Speaker 8 (06:07):
I don't want to hear about your dog. I don't want
to hear about your day. I don't want to hear
about your car. I don't want to hear about anything.
I just want to hear, fine, thank you, how are you?
And then I'll say to that fine, thank you?

Speaker 3 (06:18):
And we know somebody he I know his like being
sick or whatever. Up? Yeah, you doing?

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I mean even that, I'm kind of a Mike, I
don't really give a damn if you if I know
you've been ill, like, hey, how were things for you?

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Or you better? Whatever?

Speaker 2 (06:30):
I get that, But you're you're right, it's a useless
custom on thousand percent totally with you, Mike on that
for the most part.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
Let's just move on. Hey, A lot of people, including us.

Speaker 8 (06:38):
By the way, good.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Good because I was really concerned about it. A lot
of a lot of people like us. They're talking about
the mystique of lumen Field the twelfth Man. The Seahawks
are fifteen and fifteen MIC in their last thirty games
at home. Uh, and we feel like the mystique of
lumen Field for now is at least temporarily God, what
do you think, Well, you.

Speaker 8 (07:00):
Got to have a good team to take advantage of
a good home field advantage. I've been in that building
down on the sideline when someone was pressure washing in
advance of the twenty fourteen regular season opener against the
Packers the year after the Seahawks won the Super Bowl,
and you could just tell that there's some sort of
design feature that takes that sound and makes it seem

(07:24):
like fifty jackhammers when it's just one pressure washer. So
to get the sound to be.

Speaker 10 (07:30):
Magnified and amplified and.

Speaker 8 (07:31):
Pointed out the field and to make life difficult to
the opposing team, you got to have people there who
are excited to do it, and you got them something
to be excited about. You don't just like that fuse
and it goes nowhere. That fuse has to go somewhere.
And you know, if you're very inconsistent, if you're uneven
like the Seahawks have been, it's hard to muster.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
The kind of noise that takes.

Speaker 8 (07:51):
Advantage of that great home field advantage. Playing it simple,
and they just got to play better and they got
to win, and they got to give the fans reason
to get loud enough to make that noise something that
works for their benefit.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
Yeah, and I don't think the fans were that particularly
excited after three and oh start considering how they how
they won and who they beat, and now they've just
been disaster.

Speaker 10 (08:10):
Say that, after you guys gave me grief for not
having them at number two.

Speaker 8 (08:13):
In the power now you had them exact same.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Thing you had them at twenty two.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
So that's a little bit.

Speaker 4 (08:18):
That's a little bit tir but the thing is, should
the Hawks fans be concerned about the way this team
is playing. Not that they're losing the Buffalo, but it's
how they're losing, but just looking sloppy and just uncoached.

Speaker 8 (08:33):
Well, and it's so odd to see how well things
went in Atlanta against a very good Falcons team. It
seems to be in position to win its division and
make it to the playoffs. They go there and they
beat them by twenty and then they come home and
they just don't show up for a game against the Bills.
So the key is consistency. They've got to find who
they are. What's the identity of the offense, what's the

(08:56):
identity of the team, what is the thing that makes
them great and the thing that carries them to a
point where they're stacking wins and separating from five hundred
and taking advantage of the fact that the NFC West
this year is all at five hundred or just below
three four and four teams and one three and four teams,

(09:16):
So there's still plenty of time left. And you know
there's always a team or two that tvern around five
hundred right around Thanksgiving that starts to figure things out
and starts winning games, and you want to be in
position to do that. I mean, ideally you want to
be good wired to WHI. But they're going to be
in position to find the gas pedal. But that's the
thing you can do, consistency, identity and just stacking wins.

(09:37):
And the next thing you know, you're.

Speaker 11 (09:38):
In the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
There's a job opening for a conductor for the Russell
Wilson Comeback Hype train.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
You want the job? Are you buy it? Are you
buying what you're seeing in Pittsburgh?

Speaker 8 (09:46):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (09:46):
Huh? Are you? Are you?

Speaker 8 (09:48):
Well? He's doing a lot of the things that we
saw him do in Seattle, and it helps when you
get a team within identity defense and Najee Harris waking
up and playing as well as he ever has. If not,
it's better. He had three straight thousand yard seasons and
he didn't pick up a fifty year option. And now
he's starting to realize, if I'm ever gonna get paid
the kind of money I'd like to get paid, I've

(10:08):
better bust my butt here for the rest of his season.
He's like found a new gear. He's always been a
tough between the tackles. Get you five If you need five,
but if you need six, he's only getting you five
if that much. And I've seen more bursts. I've seen acceleration,
I've seen speed, and then that sets the stage for
Russ to cook throwing the ball down the field. And

(10:31):
you know, I've said since the moment we realized George
Pickens could be a special receiver. Just throwing out the ball.
This doesn't matter if you don't think he's opened, it
doesn't matter if two guys are coming him. Just throwing
the vicinity and he'll make the body adjustment and he'll
go get it. And that's what we're seeing. It's not
just Pickings, it's other guys too in that passing game.
And it was beautiful in the second half when Russ

(10:52):
started airing it out. And if they're able to start
doing that, that makes the defense more susceptible to giving
up yarders in their own game because they can't all
their assets up to the line of scrimmage. So still's
got two weeks to get ready for a run that
is going to be challenging. They start with the Commanders.
They play all three teams in the division twice, and

(11:13):
the Browns are going to be better at Jamis Winston.
They got the Chief, they get the Eagles. So six
and two they need to hold on to get into
the postseason. I think they will. The question is going
to hold on to win the division.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Is Anthony Richardson being benched because he tapped on his
helmet and asked for out of the game.

Speaker 8 (11:30):
I think it'd be foolish to assume that's not part
of it. The message that sends to the team. We've
seen quarterbacks Byron left which when he was at Marshall
picked up and carried when he had a broken leg
or some other injury where he couldn't run down the field,
they carried him down the field. He wasn't coming off
the field. Quarterbacks don't come out of the game. Brett
Farvell is never going to come out of the game

(11:51):
because he didn't want to give his backup a chance
to come in and play well enough to take the
job from him. So that sends a very very powerful
message in a bad way to the locker room. And
when you throw on top of that the fact that
Joe Flacco seems to be better positioned to help that
team win, you balance winning versus developing Richardson because Richardson
needs reps. He had thirteen games in college, you've got

(12:12):
ten so far in the NFL. He needs reps to
get to his ceiling. He's capable of doing great things,
he just doesn't do them consistently. They're choosing to win
over developing him, because let's face it, if they don't win,
the guys who are there running the show and coaching
the team, they might not be there to have a
chance to develop Anthony Richardson next year.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Mike Florio with US Pro Footballtalk dot Com NF on
NBC PFT. There were a couple of reports that came
out last week. I think that the Rams were thinking
about moving on from cup right, and there was even
one about them moving on from Stafford. And I watched
that Rams game over the weekend, and the way McVeigh
celebrated like they won the Super Bowl, he did not
look to me like a guy that was ready to

(12:51):
give up anybody. He looks to me like a guy
that wants to make a run in the NFC West.
Where are the Rams right now, because they're a game
out and coming to sea Atlean.

Speaker 8 (13:01):
Well, they were heads in their bets and they were
lining up possibilities for a Cooper Cup trade. I think
Matthew Stafford could have been in play, frankly, and then
they win two games in five days. The Raiders went.
I expected them to win and also picked them to
beat the Vikings kiss because I thought it was a
bad spot for Minnesota coming off of a tough game
against the Lions. But they win two games to get
the three and four, and then all of a sudden,
they're putting the toothpaste back into tube and wagon a

(13:22):
finger at the people who accurately reported that they were
shopping Cups because now they want to be able to
say the Cup, Oh, we were never shopping, you bolgoney.
They were. They were trying to find a deal to
move on from Cooper Cup, and they decided, hey, you
know what, we might actually make it to the playoffs
this year. We're not going to give up on this season.
So that's where they are, and that's why, you know
the trade deadline being where it is the Tuesday after

(13:44):
Week nine. Every additional week of football can change everything,
and we got one more week that can change the
way a team views itself, whether it's got a fork
stuck in it or it feels like a contender. After
the dust settles on Week nine, that's when we know
for sure which team can say say they're done and
which teams can safely say, maybe we should go out

(14:04):
there and address one of our needs in order to
try to get to the postseason.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Just when you think you've seen everything in the NFL,
you see a defensive back not paying any attention to
a hail mary and taunting the crowd while Jayden Daniels.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
Is running around.

Speaker 4 (14:17):
Did Tyreek Stevenson receive a fine? Did he receive anything
for that other than ridicule from the national media.

Speaker 8 (14:26):
If there's been any internal discipline, I haven't heard about
it yet. Look, this is a failure of the players,
but it's also a failure of coaching because part of
the coaching is to make sure that everybody knows what
they're supposed to do in a hail mary setting. It
can't just be an oh, by the way, they're never
going to connect on this thing, just go out and
go through the motions. Everyone has to have clear assignments

(14:46):
depts and know what they are, and you have to
have somebody deeper than the deepest guy. Because once that
ball tip like it was and Noel Brown gets ready
to catch it. The pass interference rule goes off when
it's tipped. You can just wipe him out at that
point and keep him from catching the ball when no
one's back there. That's what's so weird about Usually it's
this sea of hands and somehow someone comes down with

(15:09):
the ball and maybe you can see it happen, and
maybe you can't to have a tip and a guy
standing back there. Look what I found. I've never seen
that before. So that had two aspects that I've never
seen before. And then you throw on the fact that
Jame Daniels held the ball for twelve point seventy nine second,
had at least two holes that were uncalled. It helped
him run around, you know. It makes it a memorable play,

(15:31):
memorable in a good way for the Commanders and memorable
in a bad way for the Bears.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
So if the Jets just fall apart and are like
two and eight in a couple of weeks, which they
could be, does Rogers just shut it down?

Speaker 3 (15:42):
Say the hell with it?

Speaker 8 (15:44):
Well, I'm intrigued by two things. One, if they lose
tomorrow night and they're favored somehow, let these Vegas know
that the rest of us don't, or people just betting
on the Jets thinking they have to finally win another game,
and they beat the Textans last year thirty to six.
I don't get it, but it gives a Miko Ryan
as the coach of the text it's great spodder to
get his players fired up. But if they would lose

(16:04):
Thursday night and a contender loses a starting quarterback over
the weekend, I wonder if there's going to be a
late push by Rogers the quarterback to ask Rogers the
GM for a trade. But let's assume that doesn't happen.
I think at some point he just disappears on IR
and never comes back. And that's it for Aaron Rodgers
in New York. And that's probably it for Aaron Rodgers
in the NFL, because I don't see a team next

(16:26):
year saying let's pin our hopes to a guy whose
best years are fading deep into the rearview mirror and
it can't stay healthy and he's not as good as
he used to be, and we've got other options out there.

Speaker 10 (16:39):
To look forward instead of backward at a guy who
who I think we can fairly say he's never going
to reclaim the level of play consistently that we saw
from him in his time with the Green Bay Package.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Never Mike, great stuff, Always enjoy it. We'll talking a week.
Thanks for an He got Mike Florio with us on
the radio show. A lot more to get to a
busy Wednesday from the five twenty Bar and Grill.

Speaker 3 (17:02):
We got Factor fixed you.

Speaker 2 (17:03):
We got Petrouss, we got Harlan, we got Brian Schmitzer,

God's sakes, we got Jackson. The whole teams together.

Speaker 3 (17:10):

Speaker 7 (17:13):
Live from the R and R Foundation Specialists Broadcast Studio.
Now back to Softie and Dick Gone your Home for
the Huskies and the Kraken Sports Radio ninety three point
three kjr FM.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
All right, here we go back here at the h
five twenty Bar and Grill. Normally on a Thursday, but
we're here on a Wednesday. We're getting like some weird
looks from the Wednesday crowd. It's a different crowd here
in a Wednesday, exactly totally different.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
The Thursday people expect you guys yelling and screaming, and
I'm sure do with a Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
People coming diner, trying to have a nice business meeting,
cut some big deals here in Bellevue, and a couple
of idiots yacking their gums here in the corner. We'll
try keep it down? What's try and keep it down?
How annoying would this be?

Speaker 8 (17:52):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (17:52):
The listeners did the show like this all day?

Speaker 3 (17:55):
Three and a half hours? Jackson Way, I think stop
that right now? Am I right now?

Speaker 5 (18:00):
And everybody else?

Speaker 3 (18:02):
I'm sorry. I'm just, you know, trying to bring some
comedy here to the Radioho cares about the people in
the rest.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
I don't have much in me to be totally honest
with you, but if you want us to stop it,
will stop it. And the words of Dick Bard.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
He's got to stop doing that right now.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
You know what we haven't talked much about it is
the usc game on Saturday. I keep thinking Friday for
some reason. Why don't I think it's on Friday? You
CELA games on a Friday. UCLA game is two weeks
from Friday. We got Penn State next weekend. Be back
here at the five twenty Bar and grill on Wednesday
because we're flying to Pittsburgh on Thursday and then making
the drive out to University Park for the show on

(18:35):
Friday night from Champs Sports Bar and Atherton. Don't worry
about it, we'll put it on Twitter later on for
all the people that are heading out there. But this
USC game on Friday, I was actually talking to Pete Arbagatz,
who is the longtime voice of USC football, and uh,
he's kind of feeling.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
Like this is kind of a fork on the road game.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
This is like a playoff game, is what he said,
for both teams in regards to like a bowl You
want to make a bowl game.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
The Huskies have got to win.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
I mean, if the Husky lose this game to USC,
and I think the last time I saw they were
three point dogs, is that correct?

Speaker 3 (19:07):
In this game on on on Friday?

Speaker 2 (19:09):
So that means that USC would be a six point
favorite if they're playing in the Coliseum at least, right.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
Not seven or eight?

Speaker 5 (19:17):
Right?

Speaker 1 (19:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (19:17):
I mean does Vegas have that right? No?

Speaker 4 (19:20):
No, they don't have that, right, I don't think so
we didn't have the Michigan game, right, yeah?

Speaker 3 (19:23):
That game?

Speaker 9 (19:23):
Right?

Speaker 4 (19:24):
I mean, I I would be I don't know how
you would dig this up, But what's our record what's
our straight win win record?

Speaker 3 (19:31):
Four?

Speaker 1 (19:31):
No, No, eighteen in a row at home?

Speaker 3 (19:33):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Right, eighteen in a row at home?

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yes? Think about that.

Speaker 4 (19:36):
A team that has won eighteen consecutive games in a
row facing a team without a winning record, correct, and
they're an underdog, correct.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
And I don't think the USC has won a road
game all your loss correct in the LSU game.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
But right, I mean add that to the list. Something's
got a game.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
I bet it's never happened before.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
Well, but here's the thing about the eighteen in a row.
I think it's great, and if you win eighteen in
a row, eventually a different roster has to take over
and keep the street going, especially now in college football.
But I don't think Vegas, and I really don't know
if the fans out there, it's actually a great question
for teestimonials. I don't know if the fans give this

(20:16):
team a lot of credit for that, because this is
a totally different team than the one that got to
what was at fourteen fifteen straight. They lost the Apple
Cup to Jade and DeLaura, and then they just took off.
And this team has won the Weaber Game, They've won
the Eastern Game, they won the Northwestern game and they
won the Mission game. So these guys have won four
in a row at home, while the Michael Pennix Roma

(20:38):
Doonsay Caitlin to Board team won fourteen straight. I mean, Jackson,
you're kind of a let's say you're an impartial observer,
but you're a Husky fan, says the eighteen games in
a row thing do anything for you? And should this team?
Should this team be able to influence Vegas with the
fact that they've won eighteen games in a row.

Speaker 5 (20:54):
No, it doesn't do anything for me because this is
an entirely different roster in team and staff and everything.
It's just it's such an entirely different organization. It's a
great streak and it's cool, but it's this sort of
is like the streak that the Ravens had of winning
preseason games. To me, it's like, it's just okay, it's disconnected.
It's nice, but it's great for fans. What it's like,

(21:14):
come on.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
Wait a minute, Should you just say that this streak
is a kin to the Ravens winning all those preseasons.

Speaker 5 (21:20):
And only in the context of how much it means
to me, because because really it's just such an entirely
different organization, how can you compare her?

Speaker 4 (21:29):
I can understant yeah, I can understand how the streak
doesn't mean much because it's a new team. But let's
face it, they have played their best football at home.
Who could argue that the four best games they have
played out of eight have all been at home. They
are clearly a better football team at Husky Stadium. Then
they are away from Husky Stadium, they make way fewer mistakes.

(21:49):
And I think that's that's why I think this line
is off.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
You also see him going undefeated at home, right, I
mean to the end. At some point they're gonna get one, Right,
at some point it's gonna be You're going to catch
up to you that you're not gonna win. It's gonna
be one. That's this twenty nineteen consecutive games. Yeah, totally,
And I think I think you. I think Vegas just
thinks of USC as a better football team. I don't
know if I believe that. I mean, never mind the
home road thing. I just don't know if US is

(22:13):
better than you, dub or chat more.

Speaker 3 (22:15):
But that with.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Petrows at four Factor fiction brought to by the Emeral
Queen Right Now We're set to go.

Speaker 11 (22:19):
Glad you're with us, it's your shot at our weekly
thousand bucks and the ten thousand dollars grand prize. It's
Fact Door Fiction, brought to you by the Emerald Queen Casino,
the betting capital of the Northwest. Make the beautiful new
EQC Sports Bookie your home all football season long. Fact
Door Fiction is on Sports Radio ninety three point three

(22:42):
KJR FM.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
So we are as a radio station. You guys know
about this and this is updated. I think through last
week eighty three and sixty nine overall good against the spread.
I mean, why don't we all just quit and open
up a freaking handicapping service, Like what are we doing here?

Speaker 4 (22:58):
Honestly, that's better than all the I mean you kidding
out there, We're we're pretty good.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
In some years it's us. Some years it's the most
years it's us. By the way, it's a Wednesday, it's
Jackson's Day.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
What do you got, big boy?

Speaker 5 (23:10):
I like having the Wednesday pick a lot of times
because it's after the injury reports come out and in
Vegas doesn't to update their numbers based on the injury report.
So you guys had this in the update Lamar Jackson
did not practice today. Not only does he have a
back injury, he has a knee injury. And even if
Lamar makes it back and goes like limited limited and
he is playing on Sunday, he's not playing at his

(23:32):
full percent. And moreover, he looked bad, just bad against
the Cleveland Browns over the weekend. So I look at
a game where they Ravens have to face the Broncos,
coming up, another team with a good defense, and if
he doesn't play, the over unders forty five and a half.
If he does play, that's still gonna be a highly
defensive game. So give me the under forty five and

(23:55):
a half in Broncos Ravens on Sunday.

Speaker 4 (23:57):
We're parlaying the Baltimore plus the Baltimore. Yeah, yeah, I
like that, Jackson. We're partly that I took Denver yesterday
and we got the under. I do I agree with you.
Denver's an outstanding defensive team.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
You know why, by the way, you like those Wednesday picks, Jackson,
because because it's not Friday, and I gotta sit here
every Friday take or whatever is scraping the bottom of
the barrel right like, I'm watching these guys in the
five to twenty clean out these pots that have been
sitting in the oven for like session out and just
scraping that crap.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Off the frunt.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
That's what I get to deal with, So I don't
want to hear about my record when I'm the only
only what that needs to sit here and just pick
from slop on Friday at three thirty five, I like
the under as well. What's the total again, Jackson? You
say forty five and a half. We're going to the
under forty five and a half in the Ravens Broncos game.
You like it, it's fact, you hated, it's fiction. To
four nine four five one. I brought to you by

(24:51):
the Umber Quick Casino, the entertainment capital of the Pacific Northwest.
Every day on this show at three thirty five, we
give you a game. All you gotta do is just
text in fact or fiction if you agree disagree with
what you heard on the air.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
To four nine four to five one get one pick.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Right a week on any show, there's twenty chances a
week total seven thirty five, eleven thirty five, two thirty
five and three thirty five. You get one right, you
go one for twenty. You get dude, you go one
for twenty for six straight months in baseball, you're like
getting let go and like working at Applebee's, you go
one for twenty. Here you have a shot out one
thousand bucks. I've always thought we should make people do more.
But whatever, I'm not in charge, but I should be

(25:25):
under forty five and a half in the Ravens Denver
game factor fiction to four, nine four or five to
one right now, a little fun with audio coming up

fun with audio slash. Hey did you hear that?

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Addic? Did you happen to here?

Speaker 8 (26:44):
Though?

Speaker 3 (26:45):
What's that dick?

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Last night, two Yankee fans interfered with Dodgers right fielder
Mookie Betts trying to make a catch and foul territory
on New York's Wfan radio call, John Sterling and Susan
Waldman condemning the fans for trying to take the ball
away from Bets.

Speaker 12 (27:03):
Bets hit in the air the right cutting toward the
line is Bets in the corner. I can't see where
what happened.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
I honestly don't bets in.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
It's got to be a fan trip the ball out
of his hand.

Speaker 10 (27:16):
He's out.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
Well, he's got the ball and a fan took it
right out of his glove.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
You can see it. He's got his glove in his hand.

Speaker 5 (27:23):
The fan in the Yankee uniform is prying the ball
out of Mookie's glove.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
This guy should be kicked out of this game.

Speaker 12 (27:29):
I couldn't agree more. Goodness, he's allowed to root, and
that's all. I couldn't agree more.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
He physically opened up Mookie's glove as he was trying
to get the club back. You don't want to lose
your glove, and he took the ball out of his glood.

Speaker 12 (27:43):
I've seen people go for baseballs before, have I ever?
In my forty odd years of broadcasting baseball, I've never
seen that.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
I've never seen that.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
Nope, So I want you to watch this video. I
know this is great for raiding. Raise two knuckleheads right here.
So the one guy on the left is like trying
to pull his off, and then.

Speaker 3 (28:00):
Watch this guy like grabs the rest.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
He grabs the wrist and like pushes it back into
the glove to like get the like help him get
the ball. He's almost like helping him to get the
ball back. And both of them got kicked out of
the game and they're banned tonight for Game five. I
mean that was crazy. Like, look, we've seen fans kind
of temporarily kind of lose their mind and getting away.
This guy's literally trying to rip the glove off Mookie

(28:23):
bets his hand while the other guy is grabbing his
other hand either a pulling away or be pushing back in.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
I can't doubt I had a lot more problem with
the buddy than I did with the guy that actually was,
you know, scuffling with Bets over the ball because you're there.
He thought he was in his territory, right, because MOOKI
doesn't have a right. Fans got a right to it
if it if it goes into foul territory in the stands.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
He thought he was in the stands.

Speaker 4 (28:47):
You could read their lips yelling at him like, hey,
well you came into the stands.

Speaker 1 (28:50):
It's not it's not fan interference. If it goes into
the stands.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Well, he's trying to pull his glove off dude, I don't.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
Think they should have been banned today. I'm fine with
them being kicked out of yesterday's game. I don't think
they should have been banned for.

Speaker 3 (29:01):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
I mean, you and I have gone back and forth
on how soft baseball players are whatever, blah blah.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
I think they're tougher than you think.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
But I will say this, when things like this happened,
they are absolute pansies.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
It's unbelievable. I could have been killed. Right. Did they
just lose their minds? Like, oh, this is just dangerous
people calling on Twitter exactly. It's like, are you kidding me?
Would you freaking relax? You had two Yankee fans that
lost their brains. They went nuts.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
They're getting kicked out, but these guys were acting like
they were shot.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
For god, you think they should go to the game today.
I think they should be kicked out. Yes, I kicked
out from yes for tonight.

Speaker 9 (29:38):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
I don't think they should be banned because they the
one guy's this season taking a holder for the Yankees.
I don't think they should be banned for life, but
I think kicking them out for Game five is appropriate.
Absolutely all right? Hey, Dick did you happen to hear
that what's that dick this morning on k Adams Up
and Adams Show.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
Uh, somebody I.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
Know is a big fan of hers, by the way,
to somebody who works hearers at a buddy of Mark
I don't know. Gronkowski joined from the Dudes on Dudes
podcast and shared, Hey, Jules, okay, Hey is Randy Moush
a dude or a freak rob? Gronkowski joined and shared
that he used to be friends with the Yankee fan

(30:15):
who interfered last night with Mookie Betts.

Speaker 13 (30:18):
This is actually the first time I'm seeing this live.
And here's a little fun fact. That guy right there
grabbing Mookie Bets's glove was my friend in college. He
was on the ice hockey team, the club Arizona Wildcats
team ice hockey team. And let me tell you, the
whole hockey teamsolutely, they were absolute maniacs.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
They were animals.

Speaker 13 (30:41):
How wild these guys were. Him doing that represents him
very well. I mean, he is all in for his teams.
He is all in for the Yankees. I remember him
talking about the Yankees all the time, how he loves
him so much, and that describes him perfectly. Just doing
whatever it takes to help his team came out.

Speaker 6 (31:00):
But he's a beauty.

Speaker 13 (31:01):
He is a beauty. To congratulations, graduation for shining when
your moment came.

Speaker 5 (31:10):
This is this is unhanded behavior.

Speaker 13 (31:12):
It is unacceptable, definitely in the world of sports. But
when you're that big of a fan, that's what fans do.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
Yeah, I think I would not have done what the
other guy did and grabbed the wrist of Mookie Bets.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
There's no way I have done that.

Speaker 4 (31:26):
But I could have absolutely seen myself if the in
the World Series Adam Mariner's game for the ball, if
a Dodger came over like that and I thought I
was in my right to have the ball because I
thought I was in foul territory in the stands, I would.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
Have fought for the balls.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
Ripping a guy's glove off is totally. I mean, there
was there was a lot of activity going on. They
got they got a little handsy, got a little hands
He there with Mookie Bets. And by the way, the
guy's name, the guy on the left that was wearing
the I think the road Yankee jersey, Austin Kappa Bianco.
That's the guy that Gronk knows man. That's awesome, good,

(32:03):
that's so funny. He knows him. All right, Hey, Dick,
did you happen to hear that that Dick? Things got
a bit uncomfortable on Angel Reese's Unapologetically Angel podcast this
week when Shaquille O'Neal joined and said that she should
dunk a basketball wearing the extremely short shorts that she
wore during a recent TV appearance.

Speaker 9 (32:26):
Don't strike this from the tape, Christians, don't don't. Don't
you just lower like that to where it gives your
ability to do bro.

Speaker 12 (32:33):
Imagine you, and I'm not imagining, let me finish.

Speaker 9 (32:36):
Imagine you in the same little shirts you had on
at the Wild in our show duncan t shirts?

Speaker 3 (32:44):
What what? Okay? All right?

Speaker 1 (32:49):
All right, all right, all right, all right?

Speaker 3 (32:52):
So what shorts? I haven't seen the shorts.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
They basically go five six inches blower waist, and she
wore those on the TV show called Wild and Out.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
I don't know who that is.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
So here's my thing with Angel Reese. I think Angel
Reese is a really good player. I think Angel Reese
is like the Dennis Robman of the w NBA. Right now,
I mean, she's going to be a really good player
for a long time. I do think that some of
the criticism that Angel Reese gets she brings upon herself.
Because if she's going to talk about being sexualized by people,
and then I'm looking on Google and I'm seeing pictures
of her at a bikini or I'm seeing pictures of

(33:27):
her with that those shorts that you're talking about, I mean.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
Like, guys, we can't have this both ways.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
We can't go on the internet and posing these revealing
pictures and then complained about being sexualized by people. I mean,
am I crazy with this?

Speaker 4 (33:42):
I just think that as I mean, it was kind
of previously made her uncomfortable and then double down on it.
That's the that's the part that creeped me out. I mean,
Jack probably shouldn't have said in the first place, but
then when she was like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, and
then then he was like oh wait, wait, wait wait wait,
and he said it again.

Speaker 3 (33:59):
He likes her of our very much.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Everything I've I've read and observed, I don't think he's
a big fan of hers. And again, the sexualized comment
by Angel rees that came out, that's like months ago,
when she was kind of tearing up remember that, Yeah,
I think back when she was in college. But I mean, man,
you go on Google and you type in Angel Reese
and there's a lot of revealing pictures of her on
the internet. Tons like nobody's forcing her to do that,

(34:23):
So you can't have it both ways. Either A you
want people to appreciate your body or I guess you don't.
And yeah, when you do things like that, you're opening
yourself up to creeps on the internet.

Speaker 4 (34:32):
For sure. And I really like Shack, I think he's fabulous,
but that I think he crossed the line there, especially
when he repeated.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
Yeah, all right, we're gonna break uh. Petros will join
next on ninety three three KJRFM
