Speaker 1 (00:00):
Where going.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
This year for me is going to be my sixteenth
wedding anniversary. He got married in two thousand and nine,
one year after the Huskies went Oh to twelve.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I decided to prolong the pain and get married.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
All right, So it's been sixteen years this July eighteenth,
two thousand and nine, Husky Stadium. Obviously you were there.
I believe we did not serve charrot cake at the wedding.
For God's sakes, I don't know who the hell jackson?
Have you heard this story? By the way, at the
wedding of Hugh Millin and his lovely wife Michelle, somehow, someway,
they decided that for all the people showing up that
(00:32):
are spending their time, giving them gifts, flying in from
out of town, that their reward for all that work
was going to be a nice piece of carrikeye.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
You explain yourself, buddy.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Hey, listen, carrot cake. And I'll tell you one thing
we didn't do at our wedding. We didn't ride around
in a football helmet.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Did that is the nicest carrot cake? Kind of like
the nicest dump. Wow.
Speaker 5 (01:00):
You know we're gonna carverage today? God, I'm just trying
to bust the ice balls. You're comparing his karrot cake
at his wedding to a garbage you want. You know what, Listen,
I just say, I know what you look like, and
I know what she looks like. Okay, if she wanted
a meatball sandwich, you give her a damn meatball sandwich.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
For crying out loud.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Well, we got a lot going on today, we'll do
a little fun with audio at three forty five. Clint Kubiak,
I don't think we've been able to actually replay the
entire conversation from Tuesday yet on the station because things
have been so crazy the last few days. So the
offensive coordinator, Dick and I sat down with him on Tuesday,
he with the vMac go here that coming at five o'clock,
Kevin Harlan joining us at six, and then today the
(01:42):
Eagles had their parade today. By the way, we have
some audio from that parade that we're going to play
in fun with Audio with three forty five this afternoon.
So we thought it'd be a nice kind of you know,
walk down memory lane, uh to replay a few minutes
of our coverage from the Seahawk Parade eleven years ago
when they knocked off the Denver Broncos forty three to eight.
You were not there at the parade, is that correct?
(02:04):
I was at the parade, you were, Okay, Yeah, I remember,
I remember how cold it was. Number one, Like you
just said, number two. I don't know, outside of my
wedding day, if I've ever had a day from start
to finish where I've been that happy. Because the game
itself on Sunday morning in New York City, you wake
up and you're nervous as hell, right, your stomach's and
(02:26):
nots blah blah blah. I mean that dissipated obviously rather
quickly when the Hawks decided to beat the crap out
of those guys at MetLife Stadium. But you wake up
in a hell of a mood, and you know that
your mood is going to get even better. It's like
a baby on a boob mayn the entire year, just
smiling from ear to ear.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
To the mood.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Parade is the best day of your life other than
the wedding day.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Well, I got to say wedding days number one, okay,
And I would say you got to say that just
because she might she might be listening, because it's Valentine
exactly exactly if it wasn't Valentine and whatever. No, I'm
just saying from a mood perspective, right, like the Seahawks
winning the title obviously on that day, that feeling, that
emotion was incredible. I'm just talking about has there Have
(03:11):
you ever had a day in your life where you
wake up and you're in a great mood when you
wake up and you know your mood's gonna get even
better as the day goes by. There's no stress, it's
a big old party. You're happy the entire freaking day,
grinning from ear to ear. I'm just saying from an
emotional perspective. I don't know if I've spent that many
consecutive hours being happy during one day.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's it. That's all.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Well, some of the better days. Yeah, there's a little
bit of indecision. I mean, Washington Huskies beat Michigan ed
Arbird that was a fun day. But yeah, there's you're
talking the eighty four season. Yeah, okay, I beating Oklahoma
and some other things. Yeah, you know, both of my kids.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Sure, that's a great day. That's a monumental day.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I'm just saying from a mood perspective, right from the
emotion of just being happy as hell the entire day.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Man, the parade is so different than anything else I've
ever been to. Well dance with you on that.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
I wish it was a little warmer on that occasion,
but you know, it took the kids out of school
and there you ended up. Yeah at what Loomenfield whatever
it was called back then, the sponsors on switch. But yeah, yeah,
I think to your point, it's like, Okay, now it's
been eleven years, yes, yes, and counting, and don't I
(04:21):
don't know that the gap is any closer, you know,
it just kind of feels like we're treading water right now.
And now somebody could have said, look, look how dominant
the Seahawks were in twenty thirteen, just like people are
saying how dominant the Eagles are. Nobody's going to catch them.
And then one year later, that dominant team in twenty
(04:45):
fourteen obviously lost the Super Bowl Bowl again. So I
don't expect the Eagles to have some long run with this.
I think it was just their time. I don't think
they're forty to twenty two or even forty to six,
as a score was with three minutes they're not forty
to six better.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
And the Chiefs were a lot of other teams, but
you know, on that day they were.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Well, there's what sixteen teams in the NFC, right, and
there's only I think four teams off the top of
my head that have a longer current Super Bowl drought
than the Seahawks do. And it's Dallas, Detroit, Chicago, and Arizona.
I think those are the four teams that have been
waiting longer than us to get back to a game.
And you're right, man, all of a sudden, you wake
up and my god, it's been eleven freaking seasons, and
(05:26):
like you said, it kind of feels like you're spinning
your wheels a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
I was a little bit.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
And I don't mind him saying this because he's the
head coach. He's got to say things like that. I've
always said, like Pete Carroll, for example, Hugh is going
to have your back until he's not. I mean, Pete
Carroll is the kind of guy that'd be walking down
the street with you with his armor on your neck,
telling you how great you are, and then find a
cliff and shove you right off.
Speaker 6 (05:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, he's gonna support you until the second does get
right from the jump. Yeah, NFL is a cutthroat thing.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
But McDonald coming out, was it like two weeks ago,
week and a half ago Jackson with Aaron Levin saying,
I don't understand people that don't want Geno Smith or
don't think Gino Smith should be our quarterback. Well, it's
like the conversation you and I had the other day
about John Schneider and Jerry Depoto right over the text
when you were on with Ashley the other morning and
you said, and maybe you just you know, you understand it,
(06:16):
but you just the words came out differently. You know
why people give Schneider a pass versus the Poto because
Schnyder's got a freaking championship, He's got a title, his
resume is so much stronger overall, and his name is
etched in granite in this town after what he did
in two thousand and third?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
What did I reply to you?
Speaker 2 (06:33):
You said, Hex, how long do you get to ride
that train? And I totally agree, and I said, I
think it's over. I think I think the ride's done right.
It's time to get off and let somebody else potentially
take a turn.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Well, if you just go twenty seventeen to twenty fourteen,
over these last eight seasons, if you say, okay, who's
got the most wins? Well, not surprisingly the Chiefs they
have seventeen. Seattle is in a group with five others
with one. Those are the Colts, Browns, Chargers, Falcons, and Giants.
(07:08):
Those are all teams with one win in the last
eight season. And then below that is the following teams,
of which there are what seven? They have zero the Steelers, Bears, Panthers, Cardinals, Raiders, Dolphins,
and Broncos. So by having just one win in the
(07:29):
last eight they're in the bottom thirteen. And by the way,
well I mentioned the Chiefs at seventeen, far and away
the most. The Rams and Eagles are in the top four.
They've got eight and they both have eight wins, putting
them to you got two teams in your division that
are in the top four in terms of playoff wins
(07:51):
over the last eight years. So look, if you tell
me the rules of the game, if I'm supposed to
assess John Schneider as a general manager, and I'm supposed
to put heavy weight on what was accomplished from twenty
ten until twenty sixteen, during a time period where they
won nine playoff games and won Super Bowl. If you
(08:12):
tell me that's the rules of the game that I
give that more weight, I'll play that game with you.
Then I'll just say, whoa John Snider, he's the best,
great hair, great dude.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Raw Raw.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
If that's not the rules, and you say, okay, just
use my own reasoning and logic on this as to
you know, to me, eight years is enough where you'd say,
I'm not going to put a ton of weight right
back on what happened eleven years ago.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
No, I get it.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
I to all, you get it, and it's fair, and
this is the way I like to do this. So
just think about if you were we have this conversation
all the time. How old do you think you were
when you formed your first real sports memory that you retained.
Dick says he was like three, Okay, I mean, I
don't know how that happened, but six or seven years
old whatever around this whatever.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
So if you were watching foot all on black and
white TVs wow, and thinking that they played on cement, okaygress,
I didn't realize how old or stupid you were back
in the day.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Okay, now we find out clearly evidence says both.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Right, but just consider that I was pretty young. If
you were, if you.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Were seven years old when the Seahawks won the championship,
and maybe you kind of have a memory, maybe you don't.
Let's just say for giggles, you were six and now
you're seventeen, Now you're about to graduate high school. Your
entire life, conscious life as a sports fan has been
about the Seahawks trying to get back to that point
that you don't even really have any real memory of.
(09:37):
So if you're seventeen eighteen years old, right, and you're thinking, dude,
John Schneider didn't do anything for me, Pete Carroll didn't
do anything for me, the hell are you guys talking
about I need a new GM because I want to
win a championship like you guys did.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
So I get it. Yeah, Well, you just kind of
look at the state of the football team. I mean,
we've talked about.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I just kind of looked to say, you're twenty five
million dollars over the cap, you don't have a long
term franchise quarterback, you don't have enough offensive line, you
can't put out that fire. You know, I'm watching the Vikings.
They had a problem at linebacker. They addressed that two
guys go to the Pro Bowl. They had a great season.
The Eagles had a problem at defensive back. There were
(10:17):
twenty ninth and in the in the league in terms
of opponent passer rating. So they get Quinn and Mitchell
and they get Cooper Dezine. The Chiefs after the last
Super Bowl, they had the debacle. They lose, they can't
to the.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They lose thirty eight to nine.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
You got Mahomes running all over the place, and so
they reo all their line.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Now, evidently, from what we saw on Sunday, they gonna
have to.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Redo their line until at least make mistake.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
They puting Joe Toney out thirty two and a quarter
inch arms man. I'm watching video with Josh Sweat putting
his inside hand right on the chest to tuney, and
if there's ever a time ask forward a couple of
months from now, we're going to be talking about offensive
linemen and their arm lengthy and and probably some fans,
what the hell's at me? Well watch Josh Sweat put
(11:09):
his inside hand on Joe Tooney's chest and watched Toony
just like literally floundering and splashing like it's like you know, yeah,
you know when you play with your little brother, you
kind of put your hand on his head and you
and then he's he's playing trying to punch you, but
his arms are too short. Like that's that was Toony
going from guard to tackle. That was a big mistake
(11:30):
by Andy Reid to have done that. Now they they
had literally three different offensive tackles. But for for Andy
Reid finally to say, I think this is our best
how bad do you have to be to make him
your best option. There's no way that Andy Reid woke
up and said, all right, if we got a problem,
Joe Toony is our left tackle.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
I mean that's not a necessity, right.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Yeah, Well they had they had had too. They benched
the one guy, then another guy got hurt, they acquired
I don't know, I just read it. I don't have
the names my dispose, but they but they had a
total calamity at left tackle. Yeah, and then in week
fifteen they they finally just said, well let's put Toney
out there. But Ery, I know that's not the direction
(12:11):
of the conversation. But but in any event, getting back
to the point where we see coaches that and and gms.
They recognize a real weakness and then they attack it.
And I get I guess it's just you know, you know,
like talking about the rain in Seattle, sure, talking about.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
How you're going to fix the offense.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Like I said, it's as predictable as the rain.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
It's Groundhog Day.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
It's just getting stupid, right, And I think, again, you
have the same conversation over and over again, then you
probably need to identify the reason why you're having the
same conversation over and over again, because the same freaking
people are making the moves that lead you to keep
having the same conversation over and over again. It's like
all the people are over all the right process, like
sonic centers, Marin or left fielders, you know whatever. I mean,
(12:57):
just going back to the day, you know, you used
to go on the air complain like it was, you know,
the last day on Earth about the Husky wide receivers.
And then Jimmy Late came in and began to kind
of start to re shape everything and looking for tough guys,
and then Kaylen de Boor obviously showed up and kind
of pushed it over the edge a little bit with
JaMarcus Shepard. But guys, look, I just think this. I
think that this is going to be. And Greg Bell
(13:20):
was on the show with us on Tuesday and I
asked him how many new linemen there will be on
this football team as far as starters.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
He said three. He said three new linemen.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
I think that's going to be really hard to do
to find three starting caliber offensive lineman unless you're willing
to make one of them a rookie. If you're willing
to make one of them a rookie and then go
out and sign a journeyman free agent and then maybe
make a big acquisition like a Trey Smith for example,
how hard is it going to be for these guys
to totally overhaul this offensive line the way the Chiefs
(13:50):
did a couple of years ago. Knowing two things, everybody
in the league is looking for the same thing, and
number two, the Seahawks have never been able to do it.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Yeah, Okay, you mentioned Tray Smith. That just chafes my
ass because he was a sixth rounder and the guy's
going to the.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Pro Bowl this year. Does that mean so what? No? Well,
the point was, what's so what? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:14):
The Seas could have had on I got you, okay,
good for five rounds.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
And so so we're we're spending third and fourth round
picks on On Bradford and on Christian Haynes and whatever.
I'm not giving up on Christian Haynes, right, But Tray
Smith jumped in as a rookie and he was solid
from the jump as a sixth rounder. I mean, watching
the Packer game this year, I mean, it just that
(14:42):
frosted me because I'm watching the Packer line and I
go by what factor is this line better than the
Seahawks line? It was like is it two x three eight,
three x ten x? And and we had a promo
going him for a while. I'm just saying, Brian goutenkouts
the GM for the Packers. Whoa look at that roster
(15:04):
and you know, particularly the offensive line, and then you
look at the offensive line, say how is it constructed?
They were all homegrown, they were all drafted, they're all young,
and they were all second rounder later you know, most
of them, like third fourth round, and so it can
be done. It just apparently can't be done by the
costs at the vMac. Well, the Seahawks that year, remember
(15:27):
the Hawks in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
They only had three draft picks that year, and they
took d Eskridge. I think that was the pick right
before Creed Humphrey, by the way, or near the Creed
Humphrey selection. And then they took Trey Brown. And then
they took Stone Forsyth. Okay, with the two hundred and
eighth pick in the draft. I believe round pick. Yes
he was. This guy went to twenty six. So eighteen
(15:49):
picks later, the Chiefs took Trey Smith and we took
Stone Forsyth. Is he still on the roster? Forsyth? Is
he still here on the Seahawks roster? I got no
idea that's how impactful.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Oh he's been.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I don't even know if he plays for them anymore.
We're gonna break Cactus League starts in a week for
the Mariners.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
We got fun with audio.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
We'll talk a little baseball, Kevin Harlan, Clint Koby, acting
a lot more. Coming up with you on a Friday
right here on ninety three to three KJRFM.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Live from the R and R Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio.
Now back to Softie and Dick on your home for
the Huskies. And the Kraken Sports Radio ninety three point
three KJR FM.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Alright back here on a Friday afternoon, Saftie and Dick
with no Dick Hugh Milling for Dick Faine today.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Yes, it's true, this man has no Dick.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
I can that untill seven o'clock tonight, Hugh. I don't
know if your mom and dad or Jackson. Your mom
and dad always had their little sayings they would say to.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
You over and over and over again.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
My mom would stare at me constantly and say things like, David,
if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything
at all.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Right. I'd hear that.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Over and over and over again, both my mom and
my dad, and I feel like.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Kids very far in the radio business all.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I feel like Cam Newton needs a talking to from
my mom because Cam Newton two weeks ago came out
and said he would rather win an MVP than a
Super Bowl number one. And then he came out and
he said when he first got to Carolina in two
thousand and one, they had a locker room full of
losers when he got there. You saw Steve Smith other
guys that were on that team responding to him on
(17:21):
social media well, yesterday on Fourth and One with Cam
Newton the podcast, he doubled down, saying, when did we
become so sensitive? When did we become so sensitive to
really speaking? What the reality is? A locker room full
of losers, aggressive, but it's true, is what Cam Newton said.
So I would say to Cam, Okay, fine, how would
(17:43):
you react if I sat in a room with you
and said, First of all, you're the worst passing quarterback
I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
In a Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
You came across as a total douche when you watch
that fumble go by against the Broncos that did nothing
about it. You're a horrible teammate, one of the worst
leaders I've ever seen. You dressed like a dork and
you look think of recovering alcoholic working at a theme park. Okay,
how would you like it if I settle that stuff?
And you know what, all that stuff may be true,
but I'm not gonna say it because some things are
left better unsaid.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
I mean, if you're exactly which and again I have
no idea if any of that stuff is true at all.
But if you're an next teammate of Cam Newton, how
do you react to that.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Well, there's a connotation to loser, right, I mean we
put a l on our forehead, loser in that context,
and I mean it's the ultimate pejorative. Really, just because
you were losing doesn't make you losers, right, Like, so
you're telling me all the teams that ever had, uh,
(18:45):
we're down near the bottom of the bottom of the
draft Cortes Kennedy played for. I was just gonna say,
Cortes Kennedy was a loser, right u U uh so no,
I I don't understand how he doesn't understand it. There
there's a certain clear intonation about that word. He could
(19:08):
have and should have chosen his words better, and and
and I would just say, look, how about this. Show
a video of him in the Super Bowl with the
football on the ground, and his impulse is not to
dive and recover that football. He's more concerned about what
(19:28):
getting his pinky hurt. Well, who knows, But what if
you said, look, that is a video of a loser quarterback,
and look he's in the He's like, guess what, In
a way, he's in the same category as me, the
t you know, quarterbacks who never won a Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
I understand I don't really mean that, but what category
is he in? Right?
Speaker 3 (19:53):
And and uh, I don't know. I think that's I
don't know. He just comes up her teammates loser. Yeah,
Hugh Listen. I was never a big fan of his
when he played. And he's almost doing the impossible.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
And maybe it's because of podcasting and social media that
he's doing the impossible and that he's becoming more unlikable
after his career is over.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
I mean a lot of guys will find a way
to do other kinds of stuff. Maybe they'll ingratiate themselves
to the community. They'll do this, they'll do media, they'll
do that. Cam Newton is going the other way. Since
he got done playing football. He's less likable now than
he was when he played.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
I couldn't stand him the way he handled adversity, towel
over the head, the press conferences, and you know, on
some level. When I joined the Patriots the year before,
they had had I think at two sixty five or
two sixty eight, they had the what remains the third
largest point differential minus two sixty eight. It's it's even
(20:55):
to this day. The nineteen ninety Patriots are the third
lowes in the history of the NFL. They had been
the they had been and they're the lowest since nineteen
eighty one. So I had nine contract offers and the
worst way I didn't want to have to go to
New England. But it turned out that was the best
place for me to play. All the other places were,
(21:18):
you know. Like I had a meeting with Bill Belichick
in Cleveland, sat in his office for an hour, just
the two of us. I looked and I said, well,
what I get to compete with Bernie Cozar. Nope, You're
coming to be the back okay, right. So Dick McPherson
was the head coach at the Patriots. He had been
at Syracuse. He knew he would like to recruit I
had a chance to go to the Chargers, but I'd
(21:39):
have to compete with two guys. And Dick McPherson comes on.
He says, now you tell me why the Chargers are
better than you, for you than the Patriots, and don't
say the beach, right, And so he was right. It
is like, oh my god, I got to go play
for this team one in fifteen.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Well, so look I got there.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
They got Andre Tippett, they got Bruce Armstrong, and you
know what, they got a lot of good people. They
are good human beings and they don't want to be
called losers, right, Not that I had any power to over,
you know, change in France we went six and ten
and everybody want to throw a damn parade just because
of our improvement. But in an event, so I went
(22:23):
to a team that that quote unquote was more losing
than the Patriots, and or excuse me, then the Carolina
Panthers were when he went and to call those guys losers.
Even if I was Tom freaking Brady and had that
kind of career, I would never say that when I
got there there were a bunch of losers. There's just
(22:45):
at what age do you learn what loser in that
sense means, you know, in elementary school, don't call a
person a loser. H let alone a forty year old man.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Yeah, it's just again on the list of the most
unlikable athletes, he's he's on it. I just looking at
the at the nineteen ninety Patriots you talked about. They're
just doing some funny math here minus two sixty five
point differential. The Hawks were at minus seven. By the way,
this year and those guys were at minus two sixty five.
That's the year before you showed up.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Is that correct?
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Before I go, Okay, if you were there, would you
be bringing that up on the air, By the way,
if you played for that football they, would you be
bringing that on?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
What I'm saying, I mean, those are objective facts. I'm
trying to draw the point that that. Look, I know
I'm not Cam Newton, Okay, but I'm just saying I
went to quarterback that a team that was that bad
the year before I got there. Dave, you you must
understand what's analogous here in this story, right, And and
my point is the idea of saying that they were
(23:45):
a bunch of losers, right, No, I just would never
a collection of professional athletes prized of many really good people,
really good family people, great competitors, and many great players too.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Jackson went humillin in the mix. In nineteen ninety one,
the Patriots improved plus one seventy one from one year
to the next. Offensively, that is a free agent sign.
That is what I'm talking about right there. But how
about this. The nineteen ninety Patriots had a negative point
differential of two hundred and sixty five. In five of
those games, they had a negative point differential of minus seven.
(24:21):
That means in the other eleven they were outscoring on
average by twenty three points a game.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
That's it. No wow. And they turned to you to
save their ass about that, and I didn't save them.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
And then and then I got traded to the Cowboys,
oh god, you know, and Drew Bledsoe came in. But
in an event, the only reason I bring it up
is because I've had a little bit of There's obviously
many non analogous parts of this, because I wasn't an
MVP of the league like Cam Newton, nothing close to it.
(24:53):
But the part that is analogous is going to a
team that was really bad but still looking around and saying, yeah,
it lost a lot of football games, doesn't.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Mean you're a loser, right Well, the only difference, The
only thing.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Impactful that Cam Newton did in my life is beating
Darren Thomas and the Oregon Ducks and the BCS National
Championship game. Outside of that, there's nothing else there productive.
So I'll always have a soft spot in my heart
for the guy, at least for that one. All Right,
we're going to break a little fun with audio coming up,
and then we're going to talk some baseball. At four
o'clock on ninety three to three KJRFM.
Speaker 7 (25:33):
It's now time for soft Day and Digg's fun with audio.

Jackson with us until seven o'clock to I don't forgot.
We got Husky basketball tomorrow morning ten thirty pre game

Speaker 1 (25:59):
What are you looking at me? That for? Okay, I'm

Valentine's Valentine?
Speaker 8 (26:05):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (26:06):
What you going off a little bit until you get
to your destination? All right? Here we go a little
fun with audio slash. Hey did you hear that? Hey, Hugh,
did you happen to hear that? I don't listen to
you often because you're not interesting? Wrong? One, Hang on,
what's that? Here?
Speaker 2 (26:20):
We go all right, sorry my buck, let's go to Jackson.
During the Eagles Super Bowl parade today in downtown Philadelphia,
Landon Dickerson, guard for the Eagles, took the mic and
the Fox twenty nine coverage team could not keep up
with the profanity coming out of the offensive Lineman's mouth.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
I just, man, I don't even got word to describe
how happy I am right now after twenty two feeling
that loss.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I didn't ever want to feel it again.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Sorry about that, Landon Dickerson talking about the loss. It's
live TV. The emotion is there.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Back to Landon, I.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Just got one last thing to say, go that one off.
Speaker 7 (27:00):
But if you're hurd any of that, we apologize.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Go Bergs is what he said.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Okay, Jackson, you work in the business, Hugh, you work
in the business.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Two things. Number one, be in delay.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
You're gonna carry a live parade where all the players
are souped up. They've had a couple of beers and
who knows what else be in delay. And the number two,
once the guy drops the first bomb on you, you
took like two and a half seconds to go right.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Back to it.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Who was the I'm gonna blank on this We had
him on when when they had they had the Lakers
show out and former Sonic as well, and we had
him on the air telling the story about how you
had to use an outhouse as a kid. Yeah, and
he dropped the S bomb like twice in twenty second.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Scywood Spencer Haysywood, right, and.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
We got the first one dumped and then he said
it right afterwards, and boy, I got it talking to
you because I didn't have time to dump the second one.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Well, Nate Robinson was on our pregame show this last
fall and had no idea that we were on live radio,
so that that didn't work out.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
But yes, Spencer Haywood.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Did you see the Winning Time series on HBO, the
documentary by the way, about the Lakers. Dude, it's freaking awesome.
But there's a guy that plays the role of Spencer Haywood.
And in the series, the character of Spencer Haywood talks
about how he had to circumcise his own penis when
he was a kid because nobody would do it for
him because he was black. And he told that story
on the air and admitted that it was with a knife.
(28:18):
I dude, I don't know. I didn't get that far
with the guy.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
All right, but he said it, Well, I have a
friend who did his own visectomy.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
He's a doctor.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
He did his own visect Yes, yes, how and why.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Why would he do that?
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Because he has the expertise and it was just more
convenient he did his ownsecony.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Yeah, all right, there goes my dinner tonight.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I'm not hungry anymore, tim as far as I'm gonna
go out.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
All right, Hey, here did you happen to hear that?
What's that? Dick?
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Let's go to three Jackson on First Take earlier this week,
Stephen A talking about what Patrick Mahomes needs to do
to get back in the goat conversation with Tom Brady.
Speaker 9 (29:01):
What Mahomes need to do to become and get in
the cold conversations again. You gotta win two more titles
because you got to get at least five. And the
reason why you got to get at.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Least five you got to.
Speaker 9 (29:12):
Overcome the two bad performances in the super Bowl and
the super Bowl lost to Tampa Bay and now Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
He's been outscored by forty Yeah, both games.
Speaker 9 (29:23):
You know they've lost. You know they've they've they've lost
by more than eighteen points. Only him and John Elway
have that distinction of starting quarterbacks in the Super Bowl.
That's hard to overcome one title. Ain't gonna do that.
You need two more to get back in the conversation.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So the two more would put him number two behind Brady.
Montana's got four, Bradshaw's got three is aight minutes.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Russ has got four.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Sorry, Aikman's got three as well, so five would put
him number two. Brady never got destroyed right in a
game like that the way Mahos.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Lost three three super Bowls by a combined fifteen points. Right,
And in one his losses, he said not only the
super Bowl record, but the Playoff record for yards passing
with five hundred and five in a game they didn't punt.
That was against the Eagles in the twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Season, Jackson, I want you to find somebody.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Forty seven points Mahomes lost these two super bowls. Now
here's the thing, Well, steven a really so if he
wins two more, he's at five?
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Correct?
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Does that mean he's in the goat conversation or that
he's the goat?
Speaker 2 (30:30):
He said, to get back in the goat conversation he
needs to have at least Scott, Like.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
Dave, you've been at radio a lot longer than me.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I'm twenty five years I don't remember all this goat
talk twenty five years ago. I think there's so many
talking heads on all these networks right hour after hour. Yeah,
it's like they like, here's the deal. Tom Brady in
terms of his yards and touchdowns. Patrick Mahomes right now
has like thirty seven percent of the yards and touchdowns
(31:02):
of Tom Brady right like eighty thousand yards.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Well, I told you what he did after the age
of forty yesterday.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
He's barely of the way there. Look, Mahomes may get there.
If at that time he gets there, well you know
we'll know it. But why are we trying to say
so if he gets two more Super Bowls.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
He's the goat.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
It's because of one seven, It's because okay, it's because
of what he's done up to this point. Right, If
Mahomes had one Sunday, he would have tied Montana, he
would have tied Bradshaw before ath birthday, So okay.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Right, Jackson would have been unbelievable for him.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
But again, Brady had a big gap right between his championships,
he had a big gap, and then he went out
and he.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Turned forty years old and he won three more. So
let's wait till Mahomes' career is done. That's fun. Can't wait?
We got to do it now.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
Well, there's a time when Griffy was gonna pass Hank
Aaron right right, like he was on the pace.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
That's right. He's the trains baseball player of all time,
that's right.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
And then or Tiger Woods was going to pass Jack
Nicholas eighteen professional majors.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Yep, why don't we.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
Just say Mahomes is is arguably the most accomplished quarterback
under the thirty. But he's got a long way to
go to be the goat. That is the sensible position.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
You're asking fans and media to be sensible. The hell's
wrong with you? You just study yourself. You've been doing this
for twenty five years. Shame on you.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
All right? Hey, yeah, Hugh, did you happen to hear that?
What's that? Dick? Let's go four there?
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Jackson On his Fox Sports radio show Wednesday, Rob Parker
stunning his partners when he said that Andy Reid should
step down as the head coach of the Chiefs.
Speaker 10 (32:38):
Andy Wei should step down as head coach of the
Kansas City Chiefs, And you're going to be like, they
just went to the Super Bowl three times, Andy Wee
blah blah blah blah. This is not a one game reaction.
Because they lost in the Super Bowl and they got
boat raced and it was forty to six. Where were
the adjustments? Where was the game play? Not even I'm
not I'm not a football coach. Guys to a football
(33:01):
coaches and play question the game plan, no running game
to start at all, and then you get behind, you
gotta pass. This is what he did in Philadelphia all
the time, pass happy, and this year they got embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I'm embarrassed right now with you. I want to catch
you right now, Rob.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
They had a horrible game and he absolutely didn't adjust.
So I start to look for a new offensive coordinator,
a new quarterback coach, a new running back coach. I
bring in other pieces. There's no way I'm letting Andy
Reid go because he is overall, you know, running this thing,
the steering the ship. That guy's gotten us the three
Super Bowls in a row.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
So there's a lot of stuff that we can debate
and kind of you wake up and you're like, oh,
I see that, I see that side. Then there's other
things that people say where you just look at the
guy and you think, cause there's something wrong with him,
like literally wrong with that guy. Because if there is
something wrong with him, maybe we just back off and
just let him do his thing and then just go
back to what I mean, wrong like that mentally wrong
(33:59):
with him him, Like he's playing with a screw loose,
like he's behind the eight ball a little bit right,
Like he hasn't been blessed with the same baratus that
you and I have been blessed with. Because I think
that although I did find out and I don't listen
to a lot of Rob Parker at all, I know
who he is.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Apparently this is his shtick.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
I guess that he just goes on TV and he
says stupid stuff, hoping like idiots like us in Sportstock Radio,
we'll talk about him.
Speaker 3 (34:23):
So I don't think that's now. Look, you may be right,
I don't think that's true. I've heard him not a lot.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
No, I don't.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
I think I've listened to him. I don't watch him,
but I've listened to him. I generally think he's got
pretty good takes. I think he's pretty entertaining. I think
that that was such an aberration for him. We just
use the term sensible like, I think he's generally a
sensible guy. I don't even I can't even relate to
(34:53):
that take of how absurd that is. But I don't
I think that's a one off for him.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Dave, Yeah, Yeah, Well, look, I mean, obviously the guy
had a bad day. They all had a bad day, right,
but he's You can make an argument right now that
Andy Reid is the second greatest coach on the all
that the NFL Pat.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
Mahomes had a horrible Super Bowl. They got to get
rid of him, for sure. For sure, everybody has a
bad game in professional sports. Let's got one more before
we get out of here. Hey, Hugh, did you happen
to hear that? What's that? Dick? All right? Uh?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Shaquille O'Neill last night was on tv NBA on TNT
during the Timberwolves thunder game. Here's how the big Man
signed off on the show yesterday. Check out right and the.
Speaker 7 (35:35):
Words of us Marshall Lich, I'm tired of America.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Anywhere. So you know, there's the the idea they're going
to break that show up and not bring all those
guys back because TNT doesn't have the rights anymore to
the NBA. But did you see what happened today the
announcement today Shaquille O'Neill and TNT have agreed to a
brand new fifty million dollars a year contract to keep
him on inside the NBA with Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (36:07):
So they're farming it out, by the way to ESPN
in exchange for like some college basketball broadcasts. Warner I
think is gonna produce it, run it, all that stuff,
but they're gonna farm it out and air it on
ESPN TV. So they're keeping the gang together, by the way,
keeping the gang together.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Okay, so the games are gonna be on ESPN, correct
starting next year.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
That's right, That's right. But they're gonna somehow, all right,
they're still gonna be doing this.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Yes, they're gonna do their gig, but you're gonna watch
it on ESPN. Harlan I don't know. I mean, Harlan
is doing the games on TNT. He's got a deal
on the table from Amazon to call games for Jeff
Bezos and those guys next year. Man, so I don't know,
he might be walking into a serious pile of cash.
We'll see if he even wants to do our radio show.
(36:53):
They'll pit in some a radio show next year. All Right,
we're gonna break more with Humil than Mariners. Begin cactusly
play in a week from now. We'll discuss it next
on ninety three three kJ RFM.
Where going.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
This year for me is going to be my sixteenth
wedding anniversary. He got married in two thousand and nine,
one year after the Huskies went Oh to twelve.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I decided to prolong the pain and get married.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
All right, So it's been sixteen years this July eighteenth,
two thousand and nine, Husky Stadium. Obviously you were there.
I believe we did not serve charrot cake at the wedding.
For God's sakes, I don't know who the hell jackson?
Have you heard this story? By the way, at the
wedding of Hugh Millin and his lovely wife Michelle, somehow, someway,
they decided that for all the people showing up that
(00:32):
are spending their time, giving them gifts, flying in from
out of town, that their reward for all that work
was going to be a nice piece of carrikeye.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
You explain yourself, buddy.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Hey, listen, carrot cake. And I'll tell you one thing
we didn't do at our wedding. We didn't ride around
in a football helmet.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Did that is the nicest carrot cake? Kind of like
the nicest dump. Wow.
Speaker 5 (01:00):
You know we're gonna carverage today? God, I'm just trying
to bust the ice balls. You're comparing his karrot cake
at his wedding to a garbage you want. You know what, Listen,
I just say, I know what you look like, and
I know what she looks like. Okay, if she wanted
a meatball sandwich, you give her a damn meatball sandwich.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
For crying out loud.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Well, we got a lot going on today, we'll do
a little fun with audio at three forty five. Clint Kubiak,
I don't think we've been able to actually replay the
entire conversation from Tuesday yet on the station because things
have been so crazy the last few days. So the
offensive coordinator, Dick and I sat down with him on Tuesday,
he with the vMac go here that coming at five o'clock,
Kevin Harlan joining us at six, and then today the
(01:42):
Eagles had their parade today. By the way, we have
some audio from that parade that we're going to play
in fun with Audio with three forty five this afternoon.
So we thought it'd be a nice kind of you know,
walk down memory lane, uh to replay a few minutes
of our coverage from the Seahawk Parade eleven years ago
when they knocked off the Denver Broncos forty three to eight.
You were not there at the parade, is that correct?
(02:04):
I was at the parade, you were, Okay, Yeah, I remember,
I remember how cold it was. Number one, Like you
just said, number two. I don't know, outside of my
wedding day, if I've ever had a day from start
to finish where I've been that happy. Because the game
itself on Sunday morning in New York City, you wake
up and you're nervous as hell, right, your stomach's and
(02:26):
nots blah blah blah. I mean that dissipated obviously rather
quickly when the Hawks decided to beat the crap out
of those guys at MetLife Stadium. But you wake up
in a hell of a mood, and you know that
your mood is going to get even better. It's like
a baby on a boob mayn the entire year, just
smiling from ear to ear.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
To the mood.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Parade is the best day of your life other than
the wedding day.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Well, I got to say wedding days number one, okay,
And I would say you got to say that just
because she might she might be listening, because it's Valentine
exactly exactly if it wasn't Valentine and whatever. No, I'm
just saying from a mood perspective, right, like the Seahawks
winning the title obviously on that day, that feeling, that
emotion was incredible. I'm just talking about has there Have
(03:11):
you ever had a day in your life where you
wake up and you're in a great mood when you
wake up and you know your mood's gonna get even
better as the day goes by. There's no stress, it's
a big old party. You're happy the entire freaking day,
grinning from ear to ear. I'm just saying from an
emotional perspective. I don't know if I've spent that many
consecutive hours being happy during one day.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's it. That's all.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Well, some of the better days. Yeah, there's a little
bit of indecision. I mean, Washington Huskies beat Michigan ed
Arbird that was a fun day. But yeah, there's you're
talking the eighty four season. Yeah, okay, I beating Oklahoma
and some other things. Yeah, you know, both of my kids.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Sure, that's a great day. That's a monumental day.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I'm just saying from a mood perspective, right from the
emotion of just being happy as hell the entire day.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Man, the parade is so different than anything else I've
ever been to. Well dance with you on that.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
I wish it was a little warmer on that occasion,
but you know, it took the kids out of school
and there you ended up. Yeah at what Loomenfield whatever
it was called back then, the sponsors on switch. But yeah, yeah,
I think to your point, it's like, Okay, now it's
been eleven years, yes, yes, and counting, and don't I
(04:21):
don't know that the gap is any closer, you know,
it just kind of feels like we're treading water right now.
And now somebody could have said, look, look how dominant
the Seahawks were in twenty thirteen, just like people are
saying how dominant the Eagles are. Nobody's going to catch them.
And then one year later, that dominant team in twenty
(04:45):
fourteen obviously lost the Super Bowl Bowl again. So I
don't expect the Eagles to have some long run with this.
I think it was just their time. I don't think
they're forty to twenty two or even forty to six,
as a score was with three minutes they're not forty
to six better.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
And the Chiefs were a lot of other teams, but
you know, on that day they were.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Well, there's what sixteen teams in the NFC, right, and
there's only I think four teams off the top of
my head that have a longer current Super Bowl drought
than the Seahawks do. And it's Dallas, Detroit, Chicago, and Arizona.
I think those are the four teams that have been
waiting longer than us to get back to a game.
And you're right, man, all of a sudden, you wake
up and my god, it's been eleven freaking seasons, and
(05:26):
like you said, it kind of feels like you're spinning
your wheels a little bit.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
I was a little bit.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
And I don't mind him saying this because he's the
head coach. He's got to say things like that. I've
always said, like Pete Carroll, for example, Hugh is going
to have your back until he's not. I mean, Pete
Carroll is the kind of guy that'd be walking down
the street with you with his armor on your neck,
telling you how great you are, and then find a
cliff and shove you right off.
Speaker 6 (05:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, he's gonna support you until the second does get
right from the jump. Yeah, NFL is a cutthroat thing.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
But McDonald coming out, was it like two weeks ago,
week and a half ago Jackson with Aaron Levin saying,
I don't understand people that don't want Geno Smith or
don't think Gino Smith should be our quarterback. Well, it's
like the conversation you and I had the other day
about John Schneider and Jerry Depoto right over the text
when you were on with Ashley the other morning and
you said, and maybe you just you know, you understand it,
(06:16):
but you just the words came out differently. You know
why people give Schneider a pass versus the Poto because
Schnyder's got a freaking championship, He's got a title, his
resume is so much stronger overall, and his name is
etched in granite in this town after what he did
in two thousand and third?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
What did I reply to you?
Speaker 2 (06:33):
You said, Hex, how long do you get to ride
that train? And I totally agree, and I said, I
think it's over. I think I think the ride's done right.
It's time to get off and let somebody else potentially
take a turn.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Well, if you just go twenty seventeen to twenty fourteen,
over these last eight seasons, if you say, okay, who's
got the most wins? Well, not surprisingly the Chiefs they
have seventeen. Seattle is in a group with five others
with one. Those are the Colts, Browns, Chargers, Falcons, and Giants.
(07:08):
Those are all teams with one win in the last
eight season. And then below that is the following teams,
of which there are what seven? They have zero the Steelers, Bears, Panthers, Cardinals, Raiders, Dolphins,
and Broncos. So by having just one win in the
(07:29):
last eight they're in the bottom thirteen. And by the way,
well I mentioned the Chiefs at seventeen, far and away
the most. The Rams and Eagles are in the top four.
They've got eight and they both have eight wins, putting
them to you got two teams in your division that
are in the top four in terms of playoff wins
(07:51):
over the last eight years. So look, if you tell
me the rules of the game, if I'm supposed to
assess John Schneider as a general manager, and I'm supposed
to put heavy weight on what was accomplished from twenty
ten until twenty sixteen, during a time period where they
won nine playoff games and won Super Bowl. If you
(08:12):
tell me that's the rules of the game that I
give that more weight, I'll play that game with you.
Then I'll just say, whoa John Snider, he's the best,
great hair, great dude.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Raw Raw.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
If that's not the rules, and you say, okay, just
use my own reasoning and logic on this as to
you know, to me, eight years is enough where you'd say,
I'm not going to put a ton of weight right
back on what happened eleven years ago.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
No, I get it.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
I to all, you get it, and it's fair, and
this is the way I like to do this. So
just think about if you were we have this conversation
all the time. How old do you think you were
when you formed your first real sports memory that you retained.
Dick says he was like three, Okay, I mean, I
don't know how that happened, but six or seven years
old whatever around this whatever.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
So if you were watching foot all on black and
white TVs wow, and thinking that they played on cement, okaygress,
I didn't realize how old or stupid you were back
in the day.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Okay, now we find out clearly evidence says both.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Right, but just consider that I was pretty young. If
you were, if you.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Were seven years old when the Seahawks won the championship,
and maybe you kind of have a memory, maybe you don't.
Let's just say for giggles, you were six and now
you're seventeen, Now you're about to graduate high school. Your
entire life, conscious life as a sports fan has been
about the Seahawks trying to get back to that point
that you don't even really have any real memory of.
(09:37):
So if you're seventeen eighteen years old, right, and you're thinking, dude,
John Schneider didn't do anything for me, Pete Carroll didn't
do anything for me, the hell are you guys talking
about I need a new GM because I want to
win a championship like you guys did.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
So I get it. Yeah, Well, you just kind of
look at the state of the football team. I mean,
we've talked about.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I just kind of looked to say, you're twenty five
million dollars over the cap, you don't have a long
term franchise quarterback, you don't have enough offensive line, you
can't put out that fire. You know, I'm watching the Vikings.
They had a problem at linebacker. They addressed that two
guys go to the Pro Bowl. They had a great season.
The Eagles had a problem at defensive back. There were
(10:17):
twenty ninth and in the in the league in terms
of opponent passer rating. So they get Quinn and Mitchell
and they get Cooper Dezine. The Chiefs after the last
Super Bowl, they had the debacle. They lose, they can't
to the.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They lose thirty eight to nine.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
You got Mahomes running all over the place, and so
they reo all their line.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Now, evidently, from what we saw on Sunday, they gonna
have to.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Redo their line until at least make mistake.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
They puting Joe Toney out thirty two and a quarter
inch arms man. I'm watching video with Josh Sweat putting
his inside hand right on the chest to tuney, and
if there's ever a time ask forward a couple of
months from now, we're going to be talking about offensive
linemen and their arm lengthy and and probably some fans,
what the hell's at me? Well watch Josh Sweat put
(11:09):
his inside hand on Joe Tooney's chest and watched Toony
just like literally floundering and splashing like it's like you know, yeah,
you know when you play with your little brother, you
kind of put your hand on his head and you
and then he's he's playing trying to punch you, but
his arms are too short. Like that's that was Toony
going from guard to tackle. That was a big mistake
(11:30):
by Andy Reid to have done that. Now they they
had literally three different offensive tackles. But for for Andy
Reid finally to say, I think this is our best
how bad do you have to be to make him
your best option. There's no way that Andy Reid woke
up and said, all right, if we got a problem,
Joe Toony is our left tackle.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
I mean that's not a necessity, right.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Yeah, Well they had they had had too. They benched
the one guy, then another guy got hurt, they acquired
I don't know, I just read it. I don't have
the names my dispose, but they but they had a
total calamity at left tackle. Yeah, and then in week
fifteen they they finally just said, well let's put Toney
out there. But Ery, I know that's not the direction
(12:11):
of the conversation. But but in any event, getting back
to the point where we see coaches that and and gms.
They recognize a real weakness and then they attack it.
And I get I guess it's just you know, you know,
like talking about the rain in Seattle, sure, talking about.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
How you're going to fix the offense.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Like I said, it's as predictable as the rain.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
It's Groundhog Day.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
It's just getting stupid, right, And I think, again, you
have the same conversation over and over again, then you
probably need to identify the reason why you're having the
same conversation over and over again, because the same freaking
people are making the moves that lead you to keep
having the same conversation over and over again. It's like
all the people are over all the right process, like
sonic centers, Marin or left fielders, you know whatever. I mean,
(12:57):
just going back to the day, you know, you used
to go on the air complain like it was, you know,
the last day on Earth about the Husky wide receivers.
And then Jimmy Late came in and began to kind
of start to re shape everything and looking for tough guys,
and then Kaylen de Boor obviously showed up and kind
of pushed it over the edge a little bit with
JaMarcus Shepard. But guys, look, I just think this. I
think that this is going to be. And Greg Bell
(13:20):
was on the show with us on Tuesday and I
asked him how many new linemen there will be on
this football team as far as starters.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
He said three. He said three new linemen.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
I think that's going to be really hard to do
to find three starting caliber offensive lineman unless you're willing
to make one of them a rookie. If you're willing
to make one of them a rookie and then go
out and sign a journeyman free agent and then maybe
make a big acquisition like a Trey Smith for example,
how hard is it going to be for these guys
to totally overhaul this offensive line the way the Chiefs
(13:50):
did a couple of years ago. Knowing two things, everybody
in the league is looking for the same thing, and
number two, the Seahawks have never been able to do it.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Yeah, Okay, you mentioned Tray Smith. That just chafes my
ass because he was a sixth rounder and the guy's
going to the.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Pro Bowl this year. Does that mean so what? No? Well,
the point was, what's so what? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:14):
The Seas could have had on I got you, okay,
good for five rounds.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
And so so we're we're spending third and fourth round
picks on On Bradford and on Christian Haynes and whatever.
I'm not giving up on Christian Haynes, right, But Tray
Smith jumped in as a rookie and he was solid
from the jump as a sixth rounder. I mean, watching
the Packer game this year, I mean, it just that
(14:42):
frosted me because I'm watching the Packer line and I
go by what factor is this line better than the
Seahawks line? It was like is it two x three eight,
three x ten x? And and we had a promo
going him for a while. I'm just saying, Brian goutenkouts
the GM for the Packers. Whoa look at that roster
(15:04):
and you know, particularly the offensive line, and then you
look at the offensive line, say how is it constructed?
They were all homegrown, they were all drafted, they're all young,
and they were all second rounder later you know, most
of them, like third fourth round, and so it can
be done. It just apparently can't be done by the
costs at the vMac. Well, the Seahawks that year, remember
(15:27):
the Hawks in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
They only had three draft picks that year, and they
took d Eskridge. I think that was the pick right
before Creed Humphrey, by the way, or near the Creed
Humphrey selection. And then they took Trey Brown. And then
they took Stone Forsyth. Okay, with the two hundred and
eighth pick in the draft. I believe round pick. Yes
he was. This guy went to twenty six. So eighteen
(15:49):
picks later, the Chiefs took Trey Smith and we took
Stone Forsyth. Is he still on the roster? Forsyth? Is
he still here on the Seahawks roster? I got no
idea that's how impactful.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Oh he's been.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I don't even know if he plays for them anymore.
We're gonna break Cactus League starts in a week for
the Mariners.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
We got fun with audio.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
We'll talk a little baseball, Kevin Harlan, Clint Koby, acting
a lot more. Coming up with you on a Friday
right here on ninety three to three KJRFM.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Live from the R and R Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio.
Now back to Softie and Dick on your home for
the Huskies. And the Kraken Sports Radio ninety three point
three KJR FM.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Alright back here on a Friday afternoon, Saftie and Dick
with no Dick Hugh Milling for Dick Faine today.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Yes, it's true, this man has no Dick.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
I can that untill seven o'clock tonight, Hugh. I don't
know if your mom and dad or Jackson. Your mom
and dad always had their little sayings they would say to.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
You over and over and over again.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
My mom would stare at me constantly and say things like, David,
if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything
at all.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Right. I'd hear that.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Over and over and over again, both my mom and
my dad, and I feel like.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Kids very far in the radio business all.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I feel like Cam Newton needs a talking to from
my mom because Cam Newton two weeks ago came out
and said he would rather win an MVP than a
Super Bowl number one. And then he came out and
he said when he first got to Carolina in two
thousand and one, they had a locker room full of
losers when he got there. You saw Steve Smith other
guys that were on that team responding to him on
(17:21):
social media well, yesterday on Fourth and One with Cam
Newton the podcast, he doubled down, saying, when did we
become so sensitive? When did we become so sensitive to
really speaking? What the reality is? A locker room full
of losers, aggressive, but it's true, is what Cam Newton said.
So I would say to Cam, Okay, fine, how would
(17:43):
you react if I sat in a room with you
and said, First of all, you're the worst passing quarterback
I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
In a Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
You came across as a total douche when you watch
that fumble go by against the Broncos that did nothing
about it. You're a horrible teammate, one of the worst
leaders I've ever seen. You dressed like a dork and
you look think of recovering alcoholic working at a theme park. Okay,
how would you like it if I settle that stuff?
And you know what, all that stuff may be true,
but I'm not gonna say it because some things are
left better unsaid.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
I mean, if you're exactly which and again I have
no idea if any of that stuff is true at all.
But if you're an next teammate of Cam Newton, how
do you react to that.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Well, there's a connotation to loser, right, I mean we
put a l on our forehead, loser in that context,
and I mean it's the ultimate pejorative. Really, just because
you were losing doesn't make you losers, right, Like, so
you're telling me all the teams that ever had, uh,
(18:45):
we're down near the bottom of the bottom of the
draft Cortes Kennedy played for. I was just gonna say,
Cortes Kennedy was a loser, right u U uh so no,
I I don't understand how he doesn't understand it. There
there's a certain clear intonation about that word. He could
(19:08):
have and should have chosen his words better, and and
and I would just say, look, how about this. Show
a video of him in the Super Bowl with the
football on the ground, and his impulse is not to
dive and recover that football. He's more concerned about what
(19:28):
getting his pinky hurt. Well, who knows, But what if
you said, look, that is a video of a loser quarterback,
and look he's in the He's like, guess what, In
a way, he's in the same category as me, the
t you know, quarterbacks who never won a Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
I understand I don't really mean that, but what category
is he in? Right?
Speaker 3 (19:53):
And and uh, I don't know. I think that's I
don't know. He just comes up her teammates loser. Yeah,
Hugh Listen. I was never a big fan of his
when he played. And he's almost doing the impossible.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
And maybe it's because of podcasting and social media that
he's doing the impossible and that he's becoming more unlikable
after his career is over.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
I mean a lot of guys will find a way
to do other kinds of stuff. Maybe they'll ingratiate themselves
to the community. They'll do this, they'll do media, they'll
do that. Cam Newton is going the other way. Since
he got done playing football. He's less likable now than
he was when he played.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
I couldn't stand him the way he handled adversity, towel
over the head, the press conferences, and you know, on
some level. When I joined the Patriots the year before,
they had had I think at two sixty five or
two sixty eight, they had the what remains the third
largest point differential minus two sixty eight. It's it's even
(20:55):
to this day. The nineteen ninety Patriots are the third
lowes in the history of the NFL. They had been
the they had been and they're the lowest since nineteen
eighty one. So I had nine contract offers and the
worst way I didn't want to have to go to
New England. But it turned out that was the best
place for me to play. All the other places were,
(21:18):
you know. Like I had a meeting with Bill Belichick
in Cleveland, sat in his office for an hour, just
the two of us. I looked and I said, well,
what I get to compete with Bernie Cozar. Nope, You're
coming to be the back okay, right. So Dick McPherson
was the head coach at the Patriots. He had been
at Syracuse. He knew he would like to recruit I
had a chance to go to the Chargers, but I'd
(21:39):
have to compete with two guys. And Dick McPherson comes on.
He says, now you tell me why the Chargers are
better than you, for you than the Patriots, and don't
say the beach, right, And so he was right. It
is like, oh my god, I got to go play
for this team one in fifteen.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Well, so look I got there.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
They got Andre Tippett, they got Bruce Armstrong, and you
know what, they got a lot of good people. They
are good human beings and they don't want to be
called losers, right, Not that I had any power to over,
you know, change in France we went six and ten
and everybody want to throw a damn parade just because
of our improvement. But in an event, so I went
(22:23):
to a team that that quote unquote was more losing
than the Patriots, and or excuse me, then the Carolina
Panthers were when he went and to call those guys losers.
Even if I was Tom freaking Brady and had that
kind of career, I would never say that when I
got there there were a bunch of losers. There's just
(22:45):
at what age do you learn what loser in that
sense means, you know, in elementary school, don't call a
person a loser. H let alone a forty year old man.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Yeah, it's just again on the list of the most
unlikable athletes, he's he's on it. I just looking at
the at the nineteen ninety Patriots you talked about. They're
just doing some funny math here minus two sixty five
point differential. The Hawks were at minus seven. By the way,
this year and those guys were at minus two sixty five.
That's the year before you showed up.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Is that correct?
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Before I go, Okay, if you were there, would you
be bringing that up on the air, By the way,
if you played for that football they, would you be
bringing that on?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
What I'm saying, I mean, those are objective facts. I'm
trying to draw the point that that. Look, I know
I'm not Cam Newton, Okay, but I'm just saying I
went to quarterback that a team that was that bad
the year before I got there. Dave, you you must
understand what's analogous here in this story, right, And and
my point is the idea of saying that they were
(23:45):
a bunch of losers, right, No, I just would never
a collection of professional athletes prized of many really good people,
really good family people, great competitors, and many great players too.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Jackson went humillin in the mix. In nineteen ninety one,
the Patriots improved plus one seventy one from one year
to the next. Offensively, that is a free agent sign.
That is what I'm talking about right there. But how
about this. The nineteen ninety Patriots had a negative point
differential of two hundred and sixty five. In five of
those games, they had a negative point differential of minus seven.
(24:21):
That means in the other eleven they were outscoring on
average by twenty three points a game.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
That's it. No wow. And they turned to you to
save their ass about that, and I didn't save them.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
And then and then I got traded to the Cowboys,
oh god, you know, and Drew Bledsoe came in. But
in an event, the only reason I bring it up
is because I've had a little bit of There's obviously
many non analogous parts of this, because I wasn't an
MVP of the league like Cam Newton, nothing close to it.
(24:53):
But the part that is analogous is going to a
team that was really bad but still looking around and saying, yeah,
it lost a lot of football games, doesn't.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Mean you're a loser, right Well, the only difference, The
only thing.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Impactful that Cam Newton did in my life is beating
Darren Thomas and the Oregon Ducks and the BCS National
Championship game. Outside of that, there's nothing else there productive.
So I'll always have a soft spot in my heart
for the guy, at least for that one. All Right,
we're going to break a little fun with audio coming up,
and then we're going to talk some baseball. At four
o'clock on ninety three to three KJRFM.
Speaker 7 (25:33):
It's now time for soft Day and Digg's fun with audio.
Jimmy g pawn Star, Jimmy mister garoppolo. Now let's have
some fun with audio. All right, here we go this segment.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Everybody's been waiting for a little fun with audio here
on a Friday afternoon, right here on ninety three to
three CAJIRFM, Dick is out here. Win for Dick today,
Jackson with us until seven o'clock to I don't forgot.
We got Husky basketball tomorrow morning ten thirty pre game
eleven o'clock tip off from Penn State.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
What are you looking at me? That for? Okay, I'm
just looking at I man. I know you're excited for
Valentine's Valentine?
Speaker 8 (26:05):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (26:06):
What you going off a little bit until you get
to your destination? All right? Here we go a little
fun with audio slash. Hey did you hear that? Hey, Hugh,
did you happen to hear that? I don't listen to
you often because you're not interesting? Wrong? One, Hang on,
what's that? Here?
Speaker 2 (26:20):
We go all right, sorry my buck, let's go to Jackson.
During the Eagles Super Bowl parade today in downtown Philadelphia,
Landon Dickerson, guard for the Eagles, took the mic and
the Fox twenty nine coverage team could not keep up
with the profanity coming out of the offensive Lineman's mouth.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
I just, man, I don't even got word to describe
how happy I am right now after twenty two feeling
that loss.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I didn't ever want to feel it again.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Sorry about that, Landon Dickerson talking about the loss. It's
live TV. The emotion is there.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Back to Landon, I.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Just got one last thing to say, go that one off.
Speaker 7 (27:00):
But if you're hurd any of that, we apologize.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Go Bergs is what he said.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Okay, Jackson, you work in the business, Hugh, you work
in the business.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Two things. Number one, be in delay.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
You're gonna carry a live parade where all the players
are souped up. They've had a couple of beers and
who knows what else be in delay. And the number two,
once the guy drops the first bomb on you, you
took like two and a half seconds to go right.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Back to it.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Who was the I'm gonna blank on this We had
him on when when they had they had the Lakers
show out and former Sonic as well, and we had
him on the air telling the story about how you
had to use an outhouse as a kid. Yeah, and
he dropped the S bomb like twice in twenty second.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Scywood Spencer Haysywood, right, and.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
We got the first one dumped and then he said
it right afterwards, and boy, I got it talking to
you because I didn't have time to dump the second one.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Well, Nate Robinson was on our pregame show this last
fall and had no idea that we were on live radio,
so that that didn't work out.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
But yes, Spencer Haywood.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Did you see the Winning Time series on HBO, the
documentary by the way, about the Lakers. Dude, it's freaking awesome.
But there's a guy that plays the role of Spencer Haywood.
And in the series, the character of Spencer Haywood talks
about how he had to circumcise his own penis when
he was a kid because nobody would do it for
him because he was black. And he told that story
on the air and admitted that it was with a knife.
(28:18):
I dude, I don't know. I didn't get that far
with the guy.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
All right, but he said it, Well, I have a
friend who did his own visectomy.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
He's a doctor.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
He did his own visect Yes, yes, how and why.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Why would he do that?
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Because he has the expertise and it was just more
convenient he did his ownsecony.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Yeah, all right, there goes my dinner tonight.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I'm not hungry anymore, tim as far as I'm gonna
go out.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
All right, Hey, here did you happen to hear that?
What's that? Dick?
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Let's go to three Jackson on First Take earlier this week,
Stephen A talking about what Patrick Mahomes needs to do
to get back in the goat conversation with Tom Brady.
Speaker 9 (29:01):
What Mahomes need to do to become and get in
the cold conversations again. You gotta win two more titles
because you got to get at least five. And the
reason why you got to get at.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Least five you got to.
Speaker 9 (29:12):
Overcome the two bad performances in the super Bowl and
the super Bowl lost to Tampa Bay and now Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
He's been outscored by forty Yeah, both games.
Speaker 9 (29:23):
You know they've lost. You know they've they've they've lost
by more than eighteen points. Only him and John Elway
have that distinction of starting quarterbacks in the Super Bowl.
That's hard to overcome one title. Ain't gonna do that.
You need two more to get back in the conversation.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So the two more would put him number two behind Brady.
Montana's got four, Bradshaw's got three is aight minutes.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Russ has got four.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Sorry, Aikman's got three as well, so five would put
him number two. Brady never got destroyed right in a
game like that the way Mahos.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Lost three three super Bowls by a combined fifteen points. Right,
And in one his losses, he said not only the
super Bowl record, but the Playoff record for yards passing
with five hundred and five in a game they didn't punt.
That was against the Eagles in the twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Season, Jackson, I want you to find somebody.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Forty seven points Mahomes lost these two super bowls. Now
here's the thing, Well, steven a really so if he
wins two more, he's at five?
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Correct?
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Does that mean he's in the goat conversation or that
he's the goat?
Speaker 2 (30:30):
He said, to get back in the goat conversation he
needs to have at least Scott, Like.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
Dave, you've been at radio a lot longer than me.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I'm twenty five years I don't remember all this goat
talk twenty five years ago. I think there's so many
talking heads on all these networks right hour after hour. Yeah,
it's like they like, here's the deal. Tom Brady in
terms of his yards and touchdowns. Patrick Mahomes right now
has like thirty seven percent of the yards and touchdowns
(31:02):
of Tom Brady right like eighty thousand yards.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Well, I told you what he did after the age
of forty yesterday.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
He's barely of the way there. Look, Mahomes may get there.
If at that time he gets there, well you know
we'll know it. But why are we trying to say
so if he gets two more Super Bowls.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
He's the goat.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
It's because of one seven, It's because okay, it's because
of what he's done up to this point. Right, If
Mahomes had one Sunday, he would have tied Montana, he
would have tied Bradshaw before ath birthday, So okay.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Right, Jackson would have been unbelievable for him.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
But again, Brady had a big gap right between his championships,
he had a big gap, and then he went out
and he.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Turned forty years old and he won three more. So
let's wait till Mahomes' career is done. That's fun. Can't wait?
We got to do it now.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
Well, there's a time when Griffy was gonna pass Hank
Aaron right right, like he was on the pace.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
That's right. He's the trains baseball player of all time,
that's right.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
And then or Tiger Woods was going to pass Jack
Nicholas eighteen professional majors.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Yep, why don't we.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
Just say Mahomes is is arguably the most accomplished quarterback
under the thirty. But he's got a long way to
go to be the goat. That is the sensible position.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
You're asking fans and media to be sensible. The hell's
wrong with you? You just study yourself. You've been doing this
for twenty five years. Shame on you.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
All right? Hey, yeah, Hugh, did you happen to hear that?
What's that? Dick? Let's go four there?
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Jackson On his Fox Sports radio show Wednesday, Rob Parker
stunning his partners when he said that Andy Reid should
step down as the head coach of the Chiefs.
Speaker 10 (32:38):
Andy Wei should step down as head coach of the
Kansas City Chiefs, And you're going to be like, they
just went to the Super Bowl three times, Andy Wee
blah blah blah blah. This is not a one game reaction.
Because they lost in the Super Bowl and they got
boat raced and it was forty to six. Where were
the adjustments? Where was the game play? Not even I'm
not I'm not a football coach. Guys to a football
(33:01):
coaches and play question the game plan, no running game
to start at all, and then you get behind, you
gotta pass. This is what he did in Philadelphia all
the time, pass happy, and this year they got embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I'm embarrassed right now with you. I want to catch
you right now, Rob.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
They had a horrible game and he absolutely didn't adjust.
So I start to look for a new offensive coordinator,
a new quarterback coach, a new running back coach. I
bring in other pieces. There's no way I'm letting Andy
Reid go because he is overall, you know, running this thing,
the steering the ship. That guy's gotten us the three
Super Bowls in a row.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
So there's a lot of stuff that we can debate
and kind of you wake up and you're like, oh,
I see that, I see that side. Then there's other
things that people say where you just look at the
guy and you think, cause there's something wrong with him,
like literally wrong with that guy. Because if there is
something wrong with him, maybe we just back off and
just let him do his thing and then just go
back to what I mean, wrong like that mentally wrong
(33:59):
with him him, Like he's playing with a screw loose,
like he's behind the eight ball a little bit right,
Like he hasn't been blessed with the same baratus that
you and I have been blessed with. Because I think
that although I did find out and I don't listen
to a lot of Rob Parker at all, I know
who he is.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Apparently this is his shtick.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
I guess that he just goes on TV and he
says stupid stuff, hoping like idiots like us in Sportstock Radio,
we'll talk about him.
Speaker 3 (34:23):
So I don't think that's now. Look, you may be right,
I don't think that's true. I've heard him not a lot.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
No, I don't.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
I think I've listened to him. I don't watch him,
but I've listened to him. I generally think he's got
pretty good takes. I think he's pretty entertaining. I think
that that was such an aberration for him. We just
use the term sensible like, I think he's generally a
sensible guy. I don't even I can't even relate to
(34:53):
that take of how absurd that is. But I don't
I think that's a one off for him.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Dave, Yeah, Yeah, Well, look, I mean, obviously the guy
had a bad day. They all had a bad day, right,
but he's You can make an argument right now that
Andy Reid is the second greatest coach on the all
that the NFL Pat.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
Mahomes had a horrible Super Bowl. They got to get
rid of him, for sure. For sure, everybody has a
bad game in professional sports. Let's got one more before
we get out of here. Hey, Hugh, did you happen
to hear that? What's that? Dick? All right? Uh?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Shaquille O'Neill last night was on tv NBA on TNT
during the Timberwolves thunder game. Here's how the big Man
signed off on the show yesterday. Check out right and the.
Speaker 7 (35:35):
Words of us Marshall Lich, I'm tired of America.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Anywhere. So you know, there's the the idea they're going
to break that show up and not bring all those
guys back because TNT doesn't have the rights anymore to
the NBA. But did you see what happened today the
announcement today Shaquille O'Neill and TNT have agreed to a
brand new fifty million dollars a year contract to keep
him on inside the NBA with Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (36:07):
So they're farming it out, by the way to ESPN
in exchange for like some college basketball broadcasts. Warner I
think is gonna produce it, run it, all that stuff,
but they're gonna farm it out and air it on
ESPN TV. So they're keeping the gang together, by the way,
keeping the gang together.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
Okay, so the games are gonna be on ESPN, correct
starting next year.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
That's right, That's right. But they're gonna somehow, all right,
they're still gonna be doing this.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Yes, they're gonna do their gig, but you're gonna watch
it on ESPN. Harlan I don't know. I mean, Harlan
is doing the games on TNT. He's got a deal
on the table from Amazon to call games for Jeff
Bezos and those guys next year. Man, so I don't know,
he might be walking into a serious pile of cash.
We'll see if he even wants to do our radio show.
(36:53):
They'll pit in some a radio show next year. All Right,
we're gonna break more with Humil than Mariners. Begin cactusly
play in a week from now. We'll discuss it next
on ninety three three kJ RFM.
