Speaker 1 (00:00):
There we go.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
As part of our relentless coverage of the NFL.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
I'm the crowd.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Ride in one your home for the twelfth Man.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Probably presents a Washington State beat Commissions Football Friday zero
probably brought to you by the Washington Beef Farmers and
Renchers Beat.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
It's What's for Dinner?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Football Friday is on with SADI and on Sports Radio
ninety three point three kJ r FM.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
It'sathy, Dick and Jackson in for Ian Furness. Jessman McIntyre
have the day office afternoon. Jessmin, I think has a
pretty good excuse. She's going to Pullman. She's gotta work
tomorrow for the Wazoo Texas Tech game. I don't know
what the hell Ferness is doing. I don't know how
he pulled this one off.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Man.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
It's the first game of his son's final season of
his college football career, which I was telling you guys
a couple of days ago. I didn't even know that
was a thing. Like the last game, I get it right,
like senior night whatever. You want to be there for
that and take it all in. But first game, second game,
third game. What's the significance of being there for the
(01:07):
first game of his last year as a college football player.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Does this seem kind of weasily by for Ansh I
don't think that.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
I don't think that I can say anything as somebody
who doesn't have kids either, I don't think so, Dick.
I think you're the only person that could actually reasonably
say if this is good or not.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
I don't agree with Jackson's logic, but that's fine, and
the interest of just moving on here it's accurate. We'll
let the father in the building say, is this worthy
of taking a day off to go see your son's
first game of his final college football season?
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Wow, he was in Saint Peter, Minnesota. He's not even
over an Eastern Washington.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Like the second to last game, the third to last game.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
I think.
Speaker 6 (01:46):
I mean, I'm just entering that realm where I'm going
to start taking days off for my son's sporting events.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Well, first being, you're just you're just entering it now.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
I'm actually hell, I've actually done Yeah, I've done a
couple of swim meets before.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
I have done a couple of swim meets before.
Speaker 6 (02:03):
But they're gonna they're gonna happen more frequently now that
he's in high school and now he's gonna be traveling
to do things. So I think you can use your
vacation days. However, you want to use your vacation right, right, right,
So if you want to use a vacation day to
fly to Saint Peter, Minnesota, want to watch whitworst Worth
and a good Gustavus Aldolphus play football, then and that's
(02:27):
what they're playing.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
By the way, so it's twenty two, it's it's ten
miles outside of Minneapolis. Okay, he's just he's just finding
it easy Minneapolis.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
Right, So I mean, if you want to use your
vacation day to do that versus spending it on a
beach in Hawaii, then gold, I don't think.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
I don't think that's the question, because all of us agreed.
Whatever you want to you want to stay home and
rub sandpaper, and you took us on a day off,
that's your parade.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Do whatever you want to do.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
Well, we'll talk about that in a second, do whatever
you want to do any day. I just think it's
it's it's an odd kind of what's the word I'm
looking for here?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Reasoning Well, reasoning and kind of like milestone. I guess, yeah,
is this really a milestone?
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Well, how many times are we told hey, you got
you should be mindful of which days you take off
because there's some big days that you want to make
sure you're.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
There Friday before the Seahawk opener exact, for example. That's
the question here. If this was senior night, I could
totally see it, totally see it, and look, I don't know,
maybe this is a big deal.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
And what's the name of the town again, you said,
Saint Peter minis Saint Peter, Minnesota. But I did not realize.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
I didn't realize two things, that any year of the
twentieth century could be referred to as the nineteen hundreds.
We talked about this a few months ago. I thought
that was always nineteen hundred through nineteen oh nine. And
I didn't realize that the first game of somebody's final
season was a milestone event.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
I had no idea. I mean, maybe it's me. Well,
I'm looking I don't know either.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
I'm looking at the schedule and it's kind of a
it's kind of the most fun trip of any trip, Okay,
because here's who Wentworth plays on the Peel You and
pew Wow Up Okay Ups and Tacoma George Fox and Newburg, Oregon.
Those are their road trips this year. So if you're
gonna take this is you might as well take a
trip to Minnesota for the weekend in September.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
That is information. You're on it.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
It's not previously available for the prosecution, and we're going
to drop our case and move on. By the way,
does Dick not look like the fifty year old guy
that shows up at the park.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
We need to talk played basketball, We need we need
to address this because.
Speaker 7 (04:30):
Like I.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Gotta get pick damn it, put it back. I gotta
get a picture, come on, put it back. So because
I wore my hat backwards for five minutes.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yeah, there's there's a certain age range where you can
wear a hat backwards. Like I think at thirty two,
I'm already almost coming out of it.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I'm already the.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
Guys can you guys can agree, like ninety nine point
nine percent of the time, I'm wearing my hat regular,
So you're.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Sure you're fifth not fifty one? Right, I'm tweeting this out.
Is this appropriate for a fifty year old man?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I don't know. Why I turned it on round buddy,
you literally look like the guy you like the uncle
Rico Man.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
No, no, no, it's right, yeah, Steve Simmy, Yes, Steve thousand percent.
I just put the picture on Twitter, so second out, I,
unlike the football writers in Brazil, can use my Twitter
account without asking my wife to do it for me.
All right, what do we got today? We're in for
Ian Ferness, who's off? We got fun with audio. That's
(05:25):
a staple for the afternoon show. We're gonna hear from
Jed the Fish a couple minutes with him at two
o'clock today.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Hugh Mallin's gonna join us at three.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
We have two Factor fiction picks on the radio show today,
two thirty five and three thirty five this afternoon. We
have been instructed by Jessmon McIntyre to make a selection
for this show with a pick that they have already
provided for us, So we will not be making that
selection for them. They will make their pick and will
count towards their standing, so when they do something stupid
(05:56):
at two thirty five, the stain goes on their record
and not on ours.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
To thirty five.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Wait a second, So that show had the opportunity to
use the multiple time Factor Fiction Champions the afternoon show
to pick their pick, and instead they decided to do
them themselves.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
That's actually a really fair point. Say that again, Say
that again.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
You had the opportunity to have Patrick Mahomes start a
game for you, and you decided to go with Sam Darnold.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Wow, it's a fair way to put it. Huh huh,
Like it was just sitting.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
There, like Patrick Mahomes right there on the sideline. Come
on in and you can play a game for us. No, no, no, no,
we're good with Donald.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
No.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
I guess I don't know.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
But if we made the pick though, it would probably
still apply to our shows, to our show, So we
are making they they have given us.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
The pick is already in. We're not going to release
it until two thirty five this afternoon, but the pick
has already been made. Did you see this last by
I think it's under text maybe whatever.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I'll miss the text.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
I'll let you know in ten minutes. Gotcha, all right,
But the pick is already in. Jessmons made the selection.
We're just gonna pick for her at two thirty five
and then three thirty five today because I've already made
a couple of selections.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
You made a selection.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Jackson was gonna go yesterday, but there were two games
that he liked and one of them is still available. Yes, okay,
So you'll make that selection then at three thirty five
on our show, and we got kickoff from South Ballo
Brazil at five o'clock.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Pregame starting at four thirty. So where do we start
today's show.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
We got the Seahawks on Sunday, we got the Huskies
tomorrow against Eastern Michigan. Lots of football to talk about.
I do believe, though, that the main topic of conversation.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Needs to be eighty four percent of our game the.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Seattle Times yesterday, and this engendered a lot of reaction
both negative and negative from Mariner fans pissed off Jackson felts,
which I've already heard from Adam Jude about.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
By the way, I got it wrong. I'm sorry I
got it wrong. Maybe you didn't get it wrong.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
I mean, you're you ever right to your don't back
down even right to you because you knew Jack hang
on a second, go ahead before we do that. So
Ryan Divish and Jerry Depoto was this during the game
yesterday during the the Raven Chief games. It was like
five minutes after kickay, so right in the middle of
the Raven Chief game, Ryan Divish and Adam Jude reported
that Jerry Depoto is likely to come back for twenty
(08:24):
twenty five. Apparently they've already decided the ownership group by
Midsummer to proceed for a tenth year with Jerry and
potentially beyond, the story reads. Multiple sources with direct knowledge
of the decision making process told The Times yesterday that
ownership has decided to move forward with Jerry as the
team's president of baseball operations for the twenty five season
(08:46):
and possibly beyond. The Poto's return is not believed to
be contingent on the m somehow making the postseason, which
remains a long shot.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
So obviously this has just fired up Mari in a nation.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
You and I on the radio show the year day
got into an argument over Jerry to Poto, and people
would think that if there's an argument over to Poto,
it's whether or not to bring him back. Well, the
argument that Dick and I got into was to fire
him now or fire him in three weeks. Like both
of us were on board that we're gonna let him go.
It's just a matter of when you wanted to wait,
(09:18):
you wanted to do him the favor of waiting. I
wanted to blow him out after that second loss in Oakland.
So this wasn't even on the radar. Larry Stone comes
on yesterday and says, hey, guys, I wouldn't be surprised
if they bring him back.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
And He's right. They brought him back.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
And I don't think because of the way the Mariners operate,
nobody can be surprised by this, right, I mean the
egg in the face, stepping on the rake approach by
this franchise because they have that in their DNA, right,
none of this can be surprising to anybody. I just
think it's another just horribly bad look for these guys,
(09:53):
Like you've got three weeks left in the season. You're
sitting here in the middle of the summer deciding to
bring him back. Well, is possible they made that call
when they were ten games up. I mean midsummer could
mean anything like, what's the date? Were they they talked
in the article about a meeting in early August?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Or were they met? Correct? Man, things were different in
early August?
Speaker 4 (10:11):
Were they were they ten games up? Were they five
games up when they made this decision? So you're telling
me that when you made this call, there was nothing
that could change your mind, not a complete and total
collapse by the baseball club, the first team ever to
potentially blow a ten game lead and not make the
playoffs in the wildcard era, going from maybe ten games
up to maybe ten games out. Every button he pushes
offensively ends up in a turn sandwich. You'd trade for
(10:33):
two guys in a rose arena, and justin Turner, neither
one of them do anything like what are we doing here?
Speaker 6 (10:38):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:38):
I mean, this clown car just keeps on taking more
clowns every single stop, but just more clowns get on.
It's unbelievable that they just continue to step in, you
know what, at every single turn. I mean, for God's sakes,
there's still three weeks left to go. I'd fire him now,
you'd fire him at the end of the year.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
But you're telling yourself that you're bringing him back based
on what the guy's been here for nine seasons. For
God's sakes, how many chances does one guy get. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
It's like Jerry Depoto has got pictures of John Stanton,
Chris Larson and some kind of farm animal somewhere, like
what are we doing here? So look, I'm not surprised
by it, but I'm never going to condone it ever, Right,
I think as a Mariner fan, I think as a
as a guy, and all of us are in the
same boat that have this platform. Even if it just
(11:31):
gets repetitive and it's the same old song and dance
over and over and over with these guys, you can
never condone this. This is ridiculous what this franchise does.
And they just continue to do the wrong thing and
make the wrong step and take the wrong turn over
and over and over again. So look, bring him back.
But man, you've already put yourself in a position, Dick,
(11:53):
where every fan is going to be pissed off before
opening day next year.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Well, I think we all forgot a couple of things.
Whoa boy, one.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
We forgot that our priorities and ownership's priorities are two
different things.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
That's right. I forgot about that.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
Yeah, our priorities are winning a championship, right. Ownership's priorities
is to be competitive every year without breaking the bank.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
And that's exactly what Jerry Depoto gives you.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
He gives you competitiveness every single year without breaking the bank.
And the second thing we forgot was as we were
arguing the other day over where whether to fire him
today or to fire him in three weeks, we both
forgot what we said. On the day we found out
Dan Wilson was hired for long term, we were like, well,
that means Jerry's coming back. This new GM's going to
(12:39):
be the new president would be able to hire a
code a manager. So if this manager is here through
next year and beyond, then Jerry Depoto's probably coming back.
And just because we struggled for a couple weeks after that,
we all forgot about it and we were like, oh, yeah,
well Jerry's gotta.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Be gone now.
Speaker 6 (12:56):
Well, no, because two weeks ago we said Jerry's likely
coming back because Dan Wilson's been hired long term.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
Well, your first point about the priorities is spot on.
I mean, I guess I would just ask anybody out there,
and I would love to ask John Stanton this. And
I saw it Nathan Bishop's tweet about like are the
Mariners ever going to have like a live in person
press conference ever?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Again? With either the GM or the owner or anybody
of that ilk.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
I mean, Jerry doesn't do as many radio hits now
as he used to on the team's flagship station. I mean,
just just think about this situation. You fire the manager.
Every offensive button that you've pushed has come up zero.
You have blown a ten game lead, You've lost fourteen
and a half games in the standings, Your entire fan
base is pissed off. There's articles being written about what
a jerk Jerry is, and now he's not even talking
(13:41):
to the media. How is this environment good for the franchise?
How is this atmosphere good for business and good for
the franchise. He needs to pull a major one to
eighty with this baseball team to get everybody to forget
about this, Like he needs to start.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Winning and winning big next year, if not right now,
to get everyone to forget about this.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
I mean, everybody who is critical of this franchise and
critical of Jerry to Poto, they all have absolutely their
right to do it, because anything positive that happens now
to Jerry will be him digging out of a gigantic hole.
Gigantic hole. Okay, so I think everybody's right on with
their criticism. I just think that this franchise again. We
(14:21):
could play any show from any day the last twenty
five years outside of maybe twenty twenty two and repeat
it and it'd be the same thing.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Nobody trusts these guys. There is no credibility in this town.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
They've lost all trust with the fan base, and they've
lost the majority of trust with the media in this city.
And it's just disappointing, Dick that we are sitting here
on the air showing more passion for winning a title
than they are, and that bothers me.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
It's always going to bother me.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
I mean, I think they'll feel it a little bit
in attendance next year, because I mean I know a
lot of people they're like, forget this, man. Season ticket
holders are like, I'm out right, this is just this.
I'm beyond what's end. I'm not going to give them
all my money anymore. Now.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Will that translate into action action? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Probably not. I'm looking at the average attendance and it
really doesn't. It doesn't spike that much over the last
couple of years. I mean, back in the mid two
thy teams they were at twenty eight, twenty six, twenty eight,
in those three years when they were winning like eighty games,
Well they were, They're thirty one this year, so it's
(15:23):
not like the attendance has really popped over the last
couple of years when they've been good. So I think
you have at Safego Field or at Teamobile Park, you've
got this baseline of twenty six thousand fans that are
always going to be there regardless. And so if the
only difference between that and you're talking seven thousand fans
a game is the only difference between coming off of
(15:44):
a playoff caliber team and coming off an eighty win team,
I don't even know if that's gonna matter at all.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
Yeah, that probably should be a bigger bump. I mean,
the good thing for them, I guess is that they
only have three series left at home. One of them
is the Rangers, and three of those games are on
the weekend when the weather's going to be nice. Then
the Yankees come in for a week day series, little
boost they'll get fans, and then just the A series
at the end of the year, so the numbers will
still be pretty good. And look, I just think this,
first of all, it's the wrong thing to make this
(16:11):
happen I don't think the Mariners leaked this to Division
Jude yesterday. I think they worked their ass off to
get people inside the organization telling them that, oh, by
the way, guys like that's already been done.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Right.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
It's like this Comcast Big Ten thing we found out
last week when somebody tweeted me and said, hey, the
volleyball game is blacked out or the soccer game is
blacked out, and that these conversations have been going on
for months with Comcast in Big Ten, but nobody had
even known about it until somebody noticed the blackout on Comcast.
So this decision for Jerry likely has been made for
(16:43):
a couple months and it just finally leaked to Division Jude.
I don't think the Mariners wanted this out because of
exactly this reason. People are pissed. They've taken enough missiles already,
they don't need more. Were the Mariners planning on a
press conference to announce that Jerry's coming back if it's
under contract, why would they? Nobody typically does that. They
don't have press conferences to announce that guys that are
(17:04):
under contract are being retained unless the pressure is so
frickin' hot and they want to face the media and
the fan base, which these guys don't want to do.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
So I think they were just gonna go status quo
and just keep on hugging.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
And listen, I'll say because I think that comment very much.
I said, someone out saying this screams that the Mariners
like they want to get out ahead of things. And
the Mariners have wanted to get out ahead of both
good news and bad news in the past, and they
want to say, let's just get the news out there
and let's let people react and we'll deal with it
on the back end, right. So I was the timing
of this during the NFL game, during the opener seemed
(17:37):
to me like, gosh, it seems like you're wanting to
bury this and if it listen, I don't think that's
the case, and it's not well and see that well,
and that's and that's where you think maybe somebody with
the team gives it and says, let's just bury this
right and get this out there.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
People can be all mad. Listen, that's wrong.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
I made a bad assumption and it's a it was
a take, and it was a bad take and it's infactual.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
So sorry to those guys. I deleted the tweets, and
I want.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
Never kiss their ass too much't but I will say
it does scream Mariners to to do something like this
and and to want to say, listen, we just want
to kind of and even keep it under the wrap.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
So we just want to do this.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
We want to continue with exactly what you said, Dick,
being competitive and keeping us under budget. And Jerry to
putto does that, so we're going to keep rolling forward.
I made a bad take, and so do the Mariners
by retaining Jerry to Potto is the moral of the story.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I can see why you assumed. Will you assume I listened.
Speaker 5 (18:28):
I was talking to producers out and I don't want
name names, but a lot of people are like, yeah,
that does seem like a very Marinery thing to do.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Here, Yeah, well, kid, and it does seem like a
Mariner thing to do.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
I mean, here's the deal, man, It's the Friday before
the first Seahawk game, and this is how the show
is being led, right with Mariner with negative vibes for
the Mariners. So this is why I don't think they
wanted this to get out. I think it's ridiculous that
they would make that call in the middle of the
summer to bring them back. There's just there's no reason
to write, there's no reason for a guy who at
that point had been there for eight and a half
(19:03):
years made the playoffs one time. Hey, let's see what
happens right now, you're trending pretty good things. Things look okay,
blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I just say this.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
If they do bring him back, which it sounds like
they are, they've got to make changes to their front office.
They have to, So let's come back and talk about that.

he has a ridiculously beautiful wife. So yeah, all right,
let's rank him. Wives go, let's kJ our staff. Janna
Fane number one, lt Number one, who's married graymother number one.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
That's a great idea for one of our brackets on
a Friday afternoon pictures of the wives we got s
we got, Well, we'll we'll throw We'll throw Bucky's wife
in there. We'll throw Mark Medley in there.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Right, let's throw Rich's wife in there. We'll throw Heather
Moore in there. Yeah, all right, is Greg married? Greg's married?
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Yes? Right, you're you're forgetting I think what Chuck's not married? No,
but got a girlfriend who's the contributor to every show
on this station. Jess, No, what do you mean hubre
love Michelle? That should be a one seed for sure.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Yeah, what is uh? What's Jessmine's uh? What's what's Mike's
last name? Nobody knows who last name. They just know
him as Mike Mike the marriagame. So you went to
the wedding, you were kind of late for that. I
didn't ask him what your last name was.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
This all seems like an HR violation. Why we're just
talking to Is there attractive people? They're all the track?
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Well, no, we're not working with them either, So it's
not like you're not. You're not ranking people you're working with.
They're ranking lives of people you're working Send it to
text four nine four to five one. Who do you
think has the hottest spouse on the radio station? To
four nine four five one. So if the if the Marrior,
what was unbelievable? What I was going to say, It's
a maze. Only the Mariners can do this.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
It's the Friday before the first Seayawk game of the
year and they find themselves on the air getting barbecued
by the local sports talk radio station. It's it's unbelievable, right,
It's like it's like a verb like they just continue
to Mariner their.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Way through life with this Felix Yes thou right. I mean,
here we are.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
We're supposed to be all, hey, look at this, Denver's
coming to town, Bonnick Sean Payton, by which I guess
this is our choice to do this, but they forced
our hand, They have forced us into this corner.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
What we have no choice but to respond it.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
What it does is it really gives me very little
hope for the offseason because I feel like I already
know what's going to happen.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Is Sergeant Doom gonna continue into the office. Yes, it will.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
I mean, because I feel like I already know what's
going to happen, because we've seen it over and over
and over again.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
They will bring in three or four new bats.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
They will be mostly either unproven or they only hit
one side of the plate, and we're gonna assume they
can hit both sides of the plate, or they're thirty
two years old and their best days are behind them.
And then he's gonna take the podium and said, wow,
we made our offense a lot better. We brought in
the twenty twenty five version of Polanco and Mitch Garver.
I mean, that's what's gonna happen, right, And we're gonna
(23:52):
be twenty six in baseball and ops next year.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Out. We are so screwed.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
We're gonna die without ever having seen a World Series.
You know that, right, It's going to happen, so we are.
We're gonna die without ever having seen a World Series
in this town. I am now more convinced than ever.
And you wrote it on Twitter, and I told you
guys about a month ago, I had a random fleeting
thought in my brain that entered my thought entered my.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Thought process, and then left a few seconds later.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
But for the first time of my life, and I'm
fifty one years old, you're thirty, correct, For the first
time in my life, I actually had a thought, what
if I started to root for a different team? Exactly?
That's my question, is that sad fan that I even
had that thought run through my brain? This has been
so miserable. If they can't find a way to miraculously
pull this turn this around, it's been so miserable. I mean,
(24:47):
they have added another layer of crap to the crap
pie that is known as Mariner baseball. Big all these
things that they've done over the course of their franchise,
and who was the guy John that guy what's his
name that had had the history of the Mariners online whatever?
The other guy I'm talking about, John Wells. John Wells
did a great thing about all the crazy, wacky stuff
(25:08):
that has happened and everything they've done. Now we get
to add to the crap cake that is known as
Mariner baseball another layer that is blowing a ten game
lead in your division and missing the postseason. They've done it,
and they've hit rock bottom. And that is why I
just was walking the dog I'm like, you know what,
what if I were a Braves fan. What if I
(25:28):
were a Cardinals just picked up a second team? What
if I were a Giant fan right and just rooted
for somebody else. So look, I don't want to do that.
I want to be the hometown guy. I love my team.
I live and die with them. They make me nuts
and when things happen, I go bananas. And I can't
imagine ever rooting for somebody else, and it will likely
never happen. But the fact that I'm even allowing this
to be a process in my brain waves is unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (25:52):
It is, And I mean, the reality situation is, I've
told you guys, I've had apathy for like the last
month for the Mariners, and I haven't watched them for
the last two three weeks weeks, and I'm kind of done,
Like unless they make this improbable run, I'm just I
just I just don't care.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
What does that mean? Paint that pick? What is being
done mean?
Speaker 5 (26:08):
So when you guys talk about it, I'll listen, but like, listen, wait,
when you guys put it this way, this is a
good comparison. So when you guys talk Huskies or Seahawks, like,
I am so engaged and I'm listening and I'm really
soaking up the whole conversation, and I'm so into it
when you guys talk Mariners like, I'm gonna be here
and I'm gonna be running the show, and I'm gonna
be obviously, like from a technical aspect, making sure I'm engaged. Yeah,
(26:30):
but I'm not into that conversation interest I'm not watching.
They'll make a free agent signing and I'll kind of
just absorb it and then move on with my life.
But I'm just so done with this organization before, you know,
as long as they don't reset, because it's just same old,
same old, and Dick, I think, God, the way you
summed it up last segment about what the priorities of
ownership are, it's so dead on. And when our priorities
(26:53):
are with somebody being a leader whose goal is fifty
four percent, every other organization in the city probably would say, no,
our goal is to win a title. Their goal is
fifty four percent already on that fans should be off
the wagon. I'm off the wagon now finally, And unless
they make an probable run of the playoffs and get
me back on board this whole offseason and through or
through most of next year. Probably I'm gonna keep this apathy.
(27:16):
So yeah, if there's a secondary team. I have family
who lives in Arizona. Do I root a little bit.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
For the Diamondbacks? Corbyn Carroll, right, local kid?
Speaker 5 (27:23):
Maybe that's the answer, because I'm just tired of giving
my interest and giving my heart and giving my emotion
into a product that doesn't love me back.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
This is already, this is already the team.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
There's only been six teams in the wild Card Era
that have won ninety three or more games and have
missed the playoffs. The Mariners have done it twice of
those six teams. Wow, so you're already a team that
is historically, you know, miss the playoffs with good records,
and now you're gonna add to that resume the only
(27:58):
team in the Wildcard Era to be ten games up
in first place and missed the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
I mean, like, the list of failures never seems to end.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
My buddy Pete just texted, that's the dumbest question you've
ever asked on air.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Hughes wife is by far the best looking of all
your wives.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Yeah, we're gonna break Fun with Audio Next on ninety
three to three KJRFM, It's.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Now time for Softy and Digg's Fun with Audio. Jimmy
g pawn Star Jimmy mister garoppolo. Now let's have some
fun with audio, all right?
Speaker 4 (28:32):
This is a afternoon show Staple Safty Dick Jackson in
for Ian Forns Jessamon Anders Anders We do this every
day on our show at three forty five. Really, what
happens when you fill in on a different show. All
the stupid stuff that we won't even try on our show,
we do on this show like a kind of a
guinea pig.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
You know, we just see it like on a trial basis.
But we know this is a winner. We know this works.
I mean, who doesn't love fun with Audio? Here we go, Hey, Dick,
did you happen to hear that? What's that?
Speaker 4 (29:00):
For a moment during last night's NFL opener, it looked
like the Ravens had scored a touchdown his time expired
to give them a chance to win the game with
a two point conversion. Here's what that play in the
replay reversal sounded like. On KJR and Westwood One with
our friend Kevin Harlan and Kurt Warner on the call.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Here we go five seconds left at the Kansas City
ten third and goal.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Jackson is in the gun.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
He's got three receivers split three on the line, six
in the secondary for the Chiefs shotgun snap. He moves
up in the pocket, white tackle block. He runs around
in a circle, cutches on throws in the end zone.
It's caught in the back of the end zone. Withere
a feet down, likely got it touchdowg touch dog touchdown,
pot of ar likely back of the end zone and
(29:45):
a leap calls it down the ruling of touchdown.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
He caught it.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
We're his feet in oh one was and the toe
of the other looks like it's on the chalk. I
think he's out of bottons. I'm Winsey Kevin. I think
he's out of bounds. Two hit out of bounds. It's
to make the three pass.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
The game is over. Where's the steady his right?
Speaker 3 (30:09):
And if this game is any indicator, this is gonna
be one great NFL season.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Well, first of all, is there a better name for
our wide receiver in that situation? He's likely scoring a
Texas likely has scored. We need the Ravens call. Dude,
we got to get the Ravens call. Where's the Jerry Sandusky.
We got to get the Ravens call. Track that sucker down.
I thought it was the right call.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
There's a lot r CA and you know what everybody's saying,
he should have worn white shoes. He's wearing white shoes.
You never know.
Speaker 6 (30:36):
Yeah, I'm a home said he should have worn Lamara
Jackson still stuck in this ultimate universe, He said, well,
I still think he scored. Well, no, Lamar, there's the picture.
He didn't score. When's the last time an NFL game
ended on a replay? Oh?
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Boy? Good call? Like I can't remember the last time
that it was triple zeros on the clock for a replay. Yeah,
well look, I mean both those teams are gonna be good.
Last night?
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Was it Isaiah Likely that said that? You know, hey, man,
that's our worst game we'll play all year long. So
good luck, kandasit you.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
I love it. I thought it was a great debut
for the NFL.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
Man.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
All right, hey, Dick, did you happen to hear that?
What's that? Dick?
Speaker 4 (31:13):
During the Chiefs final drive last night, Patrick Mahomes scrambling
and falling down as he runs out of bountains. Ravens
linebacker Rookwan Smith then talked about getting pushed in the
back on the same play during his postgame press conference.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
Oh he flopped, Yeah, he flopped. That's why they referees
didn't call. It was a great call, but a great
no call by a riff. But whoever eighty eight is,
I don't know who he is, but he better watch it,
watch himself.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
He did it.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
He did a little slip push. Was there somebody on
the sideline that pushed you as well?
Speaker 6 (31:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (31:40):
Whoever number eight eight is, I have no idea who
he is, but I'll see him when I see him.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Hender shot, Yeah, hender shot. I was just looking it up.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
They got three tight ends on their roster that play
a lot because they just gave the backup like eighteen
million dollars yesterday.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
Man, they love their tight ends in Kansas City. I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
It just seems like there's this like little spat rivalry
brewing between Kansas City and Baltimore. You know, you'd never
kind of assume that two teams in different divisions would
hate each other's guts the way these guys do. But
it's pretty obvious after watching these guys talk after the game.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
What did you think?
Speaker 6 (32:15):
And I want to ask you this questions, well, what
did you think of the Mike McDonald len Mike McDonald
less Baltimore Ravens defense. I mean, was there a noticeable
difference without Mike McDonald than there was with.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
It's unfair, I think to judge it against that guy
mahomes right, right, but you can kind.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Of compare to how they played in the AFC championing
game against me. Yeah, right, I mean they look worse
without him, didn't you think?
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Yes, yeah, yes that was If you're asking me my take,
it's significantly worse. But yes, I mean, and they should
be worse, right, I mean, af few Millon's right that
they've got the most accomplished defensive mind on the planet.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Right now, I'm in a terrified state right now. Then
how would they get better?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
How would they get better by losing the best defense
of mine in the world, unless there's a new best
defensive mind in the world.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
Well, they scored ten more points than they did against
the Mike McDonald led defense.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Now Lamar Jackson looked good.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
I mean, I would not be shocked at the Ravens
and Chiefs are playing for the AFC Championship.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Would you know those two teams again? We're all right, Hey, Dick,
did you happen to hear that? What's that? Dick?
Speaker 4 (33:18):
Mike Jarreck is a morning show host on Fox twenty
nine in Philadelphia. To celebrate the start of the Eagles
season tonight in Brazil, Jared got a Brazilian wax oh
God on Live TV this morning, which included taking his
pants off in front of many co workers.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I'm Mike, and you're a professional waxer.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
I just have to take my pants off.
Speaker 7 (33:41):

Or do you?
Speaker 3 (34:03):
I got you yet be able to get Yeah? You

Speaker 6 (34:11):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (34:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:18):
Oh riatto jail hurts.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
Steve Carrell in the forty year Old Virgin, but he's
a little further south. He wanted him to move the
pepper and the lettuce on TV that is unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
Do I move it or do you move it? I
can't believe that they just got away with on radio,
here's the d WOW only in Philadelphia. Man, do you
think somebody's getting sued for that?
Speaker 6 (34:47):
By the way, somebody's gonna be there's gonna be a meeting.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
I don't think.
Speaker 5 (34:52):
One of the coiners was like, I don't know why
I looked well like that means it was.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
All out there for Well, you've got to conversation before
this start. If this guy's gonna get a wax, if
he's gonna get his private region, is another region waxed?
Speaker 1 (35:06):
On TV?
Speaker 4 (35:07):
We got to talk about like who's gonna see it,
who's gonna be there, how are we gonna refer to it,
who's doing play by play? There's no way you can
spring this on somebody. Grab a gal from the local salon,
bringer down and take your slang out.
Speaker 6 (35:20):
I think you'd have your big d driven where you're
you're falling asleep on the job.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
I got no idea where it is. Three show, it's
a pregame shows what that is? I mean, if we
did something like that, here are you kidding me? Looky?
Speaker 5 (35:34):
Was that not a little uncomfortable when he's like, yes,
you want the what what was that commulator?
Speaker 1 (35:40):
A big long D? Jered, Oh my gosh, a big
long D. We got time for one more? No? No,
is that Hackstall that said that, yeah, big long D.
Speaker 4 (35:51):
All right, we're gonna break. We're gonna hear from Jed
Fish talk some dogs coming up here. Malling at three
Softy Dick Jackson in for furnace on ninety three three
k j R f M
There we go.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
As part of our relentless coverage of the NFL.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
I'm the crowd.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Ride in one your home for the twelfth Man.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Probably presents a Washington State beat Commissions Football Friday zero
probably brought to you by the Washington Beef Farmers and
Renchers Beat.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
It's What's for Dinner?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Football Friday is on with SADI and on Sports Radio
ninety three point three kJ r FM.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
It'sathy, Dick and Jackson in for Ian Furness. Jessman McIntyre
have the day office afternoon. Jessmin, I think has a
pretty good excuse. She's going to Pullman. She's gotta work
tomorrow for the Wazoo Texas Tech game. I don't know
what the hell Ferness is doing. I don't know how
he pulled this one off.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Man.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
It's the first game of his son's final season of
his college football career, which I was telling you guys
a couple of days ago. I didn't even know that
was a thing. Like the last game, I get it right,
like senior night whatever. You want to be there for
that and take it all in. But first game, second game,
third game. What's the significance of being there for the
(01:07):
first game of his last year as a college football player.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Does this seem kind of weasily by for Ansh I
don't think that.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
I don't think that I can say anything as somebody
who doesn't have kids either, I don't think so, Dick.
I think you're the only person that could actually reasonably
say if this is good or not.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
I don't agree with Jackson's logic, but that's fine, and
the interest of just moving on here it's accurate. We'll
let the father in the building say, is this worthy
of taking a day off to go see your son's
first game of his final college football season?
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Wow, he was in Saint Peter, Minnesota. He's not even
over an Eastern Washington.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Like the second to last game, the third to last game.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
I think.
Speaker 6 (01:46):
I mean, I'm just entering that realm where I'm going
to start taking days off for my son's sporting events.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Well, first being, you're just you're just entering it now.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
I'm actually hell, I've actually done Yeah, I've done a
couple of swim meets before.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
I have done a couple of swim meets before.
Speaker 6 (02:03):
But they're gonna they're gonna happen more frequently now that
he's in high school and now he's gonna be traveling
to do things. So I think you can use your
vacation days. However, you want to use your vacation right, right, right,
So if you want to use a vacation day to
fly to Saint Peter, Minnesota, want to watch whitworst Worth
and a good Gustavus Aldolphus play football, then and that's
(02:27):
what they're playing.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
By the way, so it's twenty two, it's it's ten
miles outside of Minneapolis. Okay, he's just he's just finding
it easy Minneapolis.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
Right, So I mean, if you want to use your
vacation day to do that versus spending it on a
beach in Hawaii, then gold, I don't think.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
I don't think that's the question, because all of us agreed.
Whatever you want to you want to stay home and
rub sandpaper, and you took us on a day off,
that's your parade.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Do whatever you want to do.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
Well, we'll talk about that in a second, do whatever
you want to do any day. I just think it's
it's it's an odd kind of what's the word I'm
looking for here?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Reasoning Well, reasoning and kind of like milestone. I guess, yeah,
is this really a milestone?
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Well, how many times are we told hey, you got
you should be mindful of which days you take off
because there's some big days that you want to make
sure you're.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
There Friday before the Seahawk opener exact, for example. That's
the question here. If this was senior night, I could
totally see it, totally see it, and look, I don't know,
maybe this is a big deal.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
And what's the name of the town again, you said,
Saint Peter minis Saint Peter, Minnesota. But I did not realize.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
I didn't realize two things, that any year of the
twentieth century could be referred to as the nineteen hundreds.
We talked about this a few months ago. I thought
that was always nineteen hundred through nineteen oh nine. And
I didn't realize that the first game of somebody's final
season was a milestone event.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
I had no idea. I mean, maybe it's me. Well,
I'm looking I don't know either.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
I'm looking at the schedule and it's kind of a
it's kind of the most fun trip of any trip, Okay,
because here's who Wentworth plays on the Peel You and
pew Wow Up Okay Ups and Tacoma George Fox and Newburg, Oregon.
Those are their road trips this year. So if you're
gonna take this is you might as well take a
trip to Minnesota for the weekend in September.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
That is information. You're on it.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
It's not previously available for the prosecution, and we're going
to drop our case and move on. By the way,
does Dick not look like the fifty year old guy
that shows up at the park.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
We need to talk played basketball, We need we need
to address this because.
Speaker 7 (04:30):
Like I.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Gotta get pick damn it, put it back. I gotta
get a picture, come on, put it back. So because
I wore my hat backwards for five minutes.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yeah, there's there's a certain age range where you can
wear a hat backwards. Like I think at thirty two,
I'm already almost coming out of it.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I'm already the.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
Guys can you guys can agree, like ninety nine point
nine percent of the time, I'm wearing my hat regular,
So you're.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Sure you're fifth not fifty one? Right, I'm tweeting this out.
Is this appropriate for a fifty year old man?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I don't know. Why I turned it on round buddy,
you literally look like the guy you like the uncle
Rico Man.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
No, no, no, it's right, yeah, Steve Simmy, Yes, Steve thousand percent.
I just put the picture on Twitter, so second out, I,
unlike the football writers in Brazil, can use my Twitter
account without asking my wife to do it for me.
All right, what do we got today? We're in for
Ian Ferness, who's off? We got fun with audio. That's
(05:25):
a staple for the afternoon show. We're gonna hear from
Jed the Fish a couple minutes with him at two
o'clock today.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Hugh Mallin's gonna join us at three.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
We have two Factor fiction picks on the radio show today,
two thirty five and three thirty five this afternoon. We
have been instructed by Jessmon McIntyre to make a selection
for this show with a pick that they have already
provided for us, So we will not be making that
selection for them. They will make their pick and will
count towards their standing, so when they do something stupid
(05:56):
at two thirty five, the stain goes on their record
and not on ours.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
To thirty five.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Wait a second, So that show had the opportunity to
use the multiple time Factor Fiction Champions the afternoon show
to pick their pick, and instead they decided to do
them themselves.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
That's actually a really fair point. Say that again, Say
that again.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
You had the opportunity to have Patrick Mahomes start a
game for you, and you decided to go with Sam Darnold.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Wow, it's a fair way to put it. Huh huh,
Like it was just sitting.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
There, like Patrick Mahomes right there on the sideline. Come
on in and you can play a game for us. No, no, no, no,
we're good with Donald.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
No.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
I guess I don't know.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
But if we made the pick though, it would probably
still apply to our shows, to our show, So we
are making they they have given us.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
The pick is already in. We're not going to release
it until two thirty five this afternoon, but the pick
has already been made. Did you see this last by
I think it's under text maybe whatever.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I'll miss the text.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
I'll let you know in ten minutes. Gotcha, all right,
But the pick is already in. Jessmons made the selection.
We're just gonna pick for her at two thirty five
and then three thirty five today because I've already made
a couple of selections.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
You made a selection.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
Jackson was gonna go yesterday, but there were two games
that he liked and one of them is still available. Yes, okay,
So you'll make that selection then at three thirty five
on our show, and we got kickoff from South Ballo
Brazil at five o'clock.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Pregame starting at four thirty. So where do we start
today's show.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
We got the Seahawks on Sunday, we got the Huskies
tomorrow against Eastern Michigan. Lots of football to talk about.
I do believe, though, that the main topic of conversation.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Needs to be eighty four percent of our game the.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Seattle Times yesterday, and this engendered a lot of reaction
both negative and negative from Mariner fans pissed off Jackson felts,
which I've already heard from Adam Jude about.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
By the way, I got it wrong. I'm sorry I
got it wrong. Maybe you didn't get it wrong.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
I mean, you're you ever right to your don't back
down even right to you because you knew Jack hang
on a second, go ahead before we do that. So
Ryan Divish and Jerry Depoto was this during the game
yesterday during the the Raven Chief games. It was like
five minutes after kickay, so right in the middle of
the Raven Chief game, Ryan Divish and Adam Jude reported
that Jerry Depoto is likely to come back for twenty
(08:24):
twenty five. Apparently they've already decided the ownership group by
Midsummer to proceed for a tenth year with Jerry and
potentially beyond, the story reads. Multiple sources with direct knowledge
of the decision making process told The Times yesterday that
ownership has decided to move forward with Jerry as the
team's president of baseball operations for the twenty five season
(08:46):
and possibly beyond. The Poto's return is not believed to
be contingent on the m somehow making the postseason, which
remains a long shot.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
So obviously this has just fired up Mari in a nation.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
You and I on the radio show the year day
got into an argument over Jerry to Poto, and people
would think that if there's an argument over to Poto,
it's whether or not to bring him back. Well, the
argument that Dick and I got into was to fire
him now or fire him in three weeks. Like both
of us were on board that we're gonna let him go.
It's just a matter of when you wanted to wait,
(09:18):
you wanted to do him the favor of waiting. I
wanted to blow him out after that second loss in Oakland.
So this wasn't even on the radar. Larry Stone comes
on yesterday and says, hey, guys, I wouldn't be surprised
if they bring him back.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
And He's right. They brought him back.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
And I don't think because of the way the Mariners operate,
nobody can be surprised by this, right, I mean the
egg in the face, stepping on the rake approach by
this franchise because they have that in their DNA, right,
none of this can be surprising to anybody. I just
think it's another just horribly bad look for these guys,
(09:53):
Like you've got three weeks left in the season. You're
sitting here in the middle of the summer deciding to
bring him back. Well, is possible they made that call
when they were ten games up. I mean midsummer could
mean anything like, what's the date? Were they they talked
in the article about a meeting in early August?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Or were they met? Correct? Man, things were different in
early August?
Speaker 4 (10:11):
Were they were they ten games up? Were they five
games up when they made this decision? So you're telling
me that when you made this call, there was nothing
that could change your mind, not a complete and total
collapse by the baseball club, the first team ever to
potentially blow a ten game lead and not make the
playoffs in the wildcard era, going from maybe ten games
up to maybe ten games out. Every button he pushes
offensively ends up in a turn sandwich. You'd trade for
(10:33):
two guys in a rose arena, and justin Turner, neither
one of them do anything like what are we doing here?
Speaker 6 (10:38):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:38):
I mean, this clown car just keeps on taking more
clowns every single stop, but just more clowns get on.
It's unbelievable that they just continue to step in, you
know what, at every single turn. I mean, for God's sakes,
there's still three weeks left to go. I'd fire him now,
you'd fire him at the end of the year.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
But you're telling yourself that you're bringing him back based
on what the guy's been here for nine seasons. For
God's sakes, how many chances does one guy get. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
It's like Jerry Depoto has got pictures of John Stanton,
Chris Larson and some kind of farm animal somewhere, like
what are we doing here? So look, I'm not surprised
by it, but I'm never going to condone it ever, Right,
I think as a Mariner fan, I think as a
as a guy, and all of us are in the
same boat that have this platform. Even if it just
(11:31):
gets repetitive and it's the same old song and dance
over and over and over with these guys, you can
never condone this. This is ridiculous what this franchise does.
And they just continue to do the wrong thing and
make the wrong step and take the wrong turn over
and over and over again. So look, bring him back.
But man, you've already put yourself in a position, Dick,
(11:53):
where every fan is going to be pissed off before
opening day next year.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Well, I think we all forgot a couple of things.
Whoa boy, one.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
We forgot that our priorities and ownership's priorities are two
different things.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
That's right. I forgot about that.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
Yeah, our priorities are winning a championship, right. Ownership's priorities
is to be competitive every year without breaking the bank.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
And that's exactly what Jerry Depoto gives you.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
He gives you competitiveness every single year without breaking the bank.
And the second thing we forgot was as we were
arguing the other day over where whether to fire him
today or to fire him in three weeks, we both
forgot what we said. On the day we found out
Dan Wilson was hired for long term, we were like, well,
that means Jerry's coming back. This new GM's going to
(12:39):
be the new president would be able to hire a
code a manager. So if this manager is here through
next year and beyond, then Jerry Depoto's probably coming back.
And just because we struggled for a couple weeks after that,
we all forgot about it and we were like, oh, yeah,
well Jerry's gotta.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Be gone now.
Speaker 6 (12:56):
Well, no, because two weeks ago we said Jerry's likely
coming back because Dan Wilson's been hired long term.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
Well, your first point about the priorities is spot on.
I mean, I guess I would just ask anybody out there,
and I would love to ask John Stanton this. And
I saw it Nathan Bishop's tweet about like are the
Mariners ever going to have like a live in person
press conference ever?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Again? With either the GM or the owner or anybody
of that ilk.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
I mean, Jerry doesn't do as many radio hits now
as he used to on the team's flagship station. I mean,
just just think about this situation. You fire the manager.
Every offensive button that you've pushed has come up zero.
You have blown a ten game lead, You've lost fourteen
and a half games in the standings, Your entire fan
base is pissed off. There's articles being written about what
a jerk Jerry is, and now he's not even talking
(13:41):
to the media. How is this environment good for the franchise?
How is this atmosphere good for business and good for
the franchise. He needs to pull a major one to
eighty with this baseball team to get everybody to forget
about this, Like he needs to start.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Winning and winning big next year, if not right now,
to get everyone to forget about this.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
I mean, everybody who is critical of this franchise and
critical of Jerry to Poto, they all have absolutely their
right to do it, because anything positive that happens now
to Jerry will be him digging out of a gigantic hole.
Gigantic hole. Okay, so I think everybody's right on with
their criticism. I just think that this franchise again. We
(14:21):
could play any show from any day the last twenty
five years outside of maybe twenty twenty two and repeat
it and it'd be the same thing.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Nobody trusts these guys. There is no credibility in this town.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
They've lost all trust with the fan base, and they've
lost the majority of trust with the media in this city.
And it's just disappointing, Dick that we are sitting here
on the air showing more passion for winning a title
than they are, and that bothers me.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
It's always going to bother me.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
I mean, I think they'll feel it a little bit
in attendance next year, because I mean I know a
lot of people they're like, forget this, man. Season ticket
holders are like, I'm out right, this is just this.
I'm beyond what's end. I'm not going to give them
all my money anymore. Now.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Will that translate into action action? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Probably not. I'm looking at the average attendance and it
really doesn't. It doesn't spike that much over the last
couple of years. I mean, back in the mid two
thy teams they were at twenty eight, twenty six, twenty eight,
in those three years when they were winning like eighty games,
Well they were, They're thirty one this year, so it's
(15:23):
not like the attendance has really popped over the last
couple of years when they've been good. So I think
you have at Safego Field or at Teamobile Park, you've
got this baseline of twenty six thousand fans that are
always going to be there regardless. And so if the
only difference between that and you're talking seven thousand fans
a game is the only difference between coming off of
(15:44):
a playoff caliber team and coming off an eighty win team,
I don't even know if that's gonna matter at all.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
Yeah, that probably should be a bigger bump. I mean,
the good thing for them, I guess is that they
only have three series left at home. One of them
is the Rangers, and three of those games are on
the weekend when the weather's going to be nice. Then
the Yankees come in for a week day series, little
boost they'll get fans, and then just the A series
at the end of the year, so the numbers will
still be pretty good. And look, I just think this,
first of all, it's the wrong thing to make this
(16:11):
happen I don't think the Mariners leaked this to Division
Jude yesterday. I think they worked their ass off to
get people inside the organization telling them that, oh, by
the way, guys like that's already been done.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Right.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
It's like this Comcast Big Ten thing we found out
last week when somebody tweeted me and said, hey, the
volleyball game is blacked out or the soccer game is
blacked out, and that these conversations have been going on
for months with Comcast in Big Ten, but nobody had
even known about it until somebody noticed the blackout on Comcast.
So this decision for Jerry likely has been made for
(16:43):
a couple months and it just finally leaked to Division Jude.
I don't think the Mariners wanted this out because of
exactly this reason. People are pissed. They've taken enough missiles already,
they don't need more. Were the Mariners planning on a
press conference to announce that Jerry's coming back if it's
under contract, why would they? Nobody typically does that. They
don't have press conferences to announce that guys that are
(17:04):
under contract are being retained unless the pressure is so
frickin' hot and they want to face the media and
the fan base, which these guys don't want to do.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
So I think they were just gonna go status quo
and just keep on hugging.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
And listen, I'll say because I think that comment very much.
I said, someone out saying this screams that the Mariners
like they want to get out ahead of things. And
the Mariners have wanted to get out ahead of both
good news and bad news in the past, and they
want to say, let's just get the news out there
and let's let people react and we'll deal with it
on the back end, right. So I was the timing
of this during the NFL game, during the opener seemed
(17:37):
to me like, gosh, it seems like you're wanting to
bury this and if it listen, I don't think that's
the case, and it's not well and see that well,
and that's and that's where you think maybe somebody with
the team gives it and says, let's just bury this
right and get this out there.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
People can be all mad. Listen, that's wrong.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
I made a bad assumption and it's a it was
a take, and it was a bad take and it's infactual.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
So sorry to those guys. I deleted the tweets, and
I want.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
Never kiss their ass too much't but I will say
it does scream Mariners to to do something like this
and and to want to say, listen, we just want
to kind of and even keep it under the wrap.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
So we just want to do this.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
We want to continue with exactly what you said, Dick,
being competitive and keeping us under budget. And Jerry to
putto does that, so we're going to keep rolling forward.
I made a bad take, and so do the Mariners
by retaining Jerry to Potto is the moral of the story.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I can see why you assumed. Will you assume I listened.
Speaker 5 (18:28):
I was talking to producers out and I don't want
name names, but a lot of people are like, yeah,
that does seem like a very Marinery thing to do.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Here, Yeah, well, kid, and it does seem like a
Mariner thing to do.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
I mean, here's the deal, man, It's the Friday before
the first Seahawk game, and this is how the show
is being led, right with Mariner with negative vibes for
the Mariners. So this is why I don't think they
wanted this to get out. I think it's ridiculous that
they would make that call in the middle of the
summer to bring them back. There's just there's no reason
to write, there's no reason for a guy who at
that point had been there for eight and a half
(19:03):
years made the playoffs one time. Hey, let's see what
happens right now, you're trending pretty good things. Things look okay,
blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
I just say this.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
If they do bring him back, which it sounds like
they are, they've got to make changes to their front office.
They have to, So let's come back and talk about that.
Lee Sterling is going to join us at three forty five.
Some picks for the weekend. Humilling at three he a
little bit from Jeed Fisher two Full with audio one
forty five Factor Fiction two times Today at two thirty

(19:32):
Ian Ferness, who taking the day off today for his
son's first game of his last season of college football.
We're here until about four thirty before Eagles and Packers
right here on ninety three three KJRFM.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Does it make any sense? It does not.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Now back to the Washington State Beat Commissions Football Friday
with SOFTI on your home for the NFL Sports Radio
ninety three point three KJR FM.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Yeah, it really is amazing, it really is.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
Softy Dick and Jackson in for Ian Ferness, Jessamine Andrews. Andrews,
who's in the studio over here doing I don't know
what gott to power him? I'm out of here, man
Friday one thirty Guys, Oh, I know he's doing.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
What's he doing?
Speaker 6 (20:19):
He is preparing questions for the chinooks because he's feeling
for me. But why does he have to be here
to do that good questions? Because he probably started doing it,
and let's let's ask him. Let's ask him.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
This is what you can do when you're filling it
on somebody else's You can just leave the your phone
and start yelling down the hall. Hey, why are you
still here?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Ah?
Speaker 1 (20:45):
He's doing Factor Fixed? Did he do that from home? Yeah? Right,
you can't focus when he's at home because.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
Oh, well, you know what, I'm totally opposite a great
I can only focus at home.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
I only do my work at home. He says, you
can't focus when he's at home. I mean like he
he has a ridiculously beautiful wife. So yeah, all right,
let's rank him. Wives go, let's kJ our staff. Janna
Fane number one, lt Number one, who's married graymother number one.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
That's a great idea for one of our brackets on
a Friday afternoon pictures of the wives we got s
we got, Well, we'll we'll throw We'll throw Bucky's wife
in there. We'll throw Mark Medley in there.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Right, let's throw Rich's wife in there. We'll throw Heather
Moore in there. Yeah, all right, is Greg married? Greg's married?
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Yes? Right, you're you're forgetting I think what Chuck's not married? No,
but got a girlfriend who's the contributor to every show
on this station. Jess, No, what do you mean hubre
love Michelle? That should be a one seed for sure.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
Yeah, what is uh? What's Jessmine's uh? What's what's Mike's
last name? Nobody knows who last name. They just know
him as Mike Mike the marriagame. So you went to
the wedding, you were kind of late for that. I
didn't ask him what your last name was.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
This all seems like an HR violation. Why we're just
talking to Is there attractive people? They're all the track?
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Well, no, we're not working with them either, So it's
not like you're not. You're not ranking people you're working with.
They're ranking lives of people you're working Send it to
text four nine four to five one. Who do you
think has the hottest spouse on the radio station? To
four nine four five one. So if the if the Marrior,
what was unbelievable? What I was going to say, It's
a maze. Only the Mariners can do this.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
It's the Friday before the first Seayawk game of the
year and they find themselves on the air getting barbecued
by the local sports talk radio station. It's it's unbelievable, right,
It's like it's like a verb like they just continue
to Mariner their.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Way through life with this Felix Yes thou right. I mean,
here we are.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
We're supposed to be all, hey, look at this, Denver's
coming to town, Bonnick Sean Payton, by which I guess
this is our choice to do this, but they forced
our hand, They have forced us into this corner.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
What we have no choice but to respond it.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
What it does is it really gives me very little
hope for the offseason because I feel like I already
know what's going to happen.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Is Sergeant Doom gonna continue into the office. Yes, it will.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
I mean, because I feel like I already know what's
going to happen, because we've seen it over and over
and over again.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
They will bring in three or four new bats.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
They will be mostly either unproven or they only hit
one side of the plate, and we're gonna assume they
can hit both sides of the plate, or they're thirty
two years old and their best days are behind them.
And then he's gonna take the podium and said, wow,
we made our offense a lot better. We brought in
the twenty twenty five version of Polanco and Mitch Garver.
I mean, that's what's gonna happen, right, And we're gonna
(23:52):
be twenty six in baseball and ops next year.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Out. We are so screwed.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
We're gonna die without ever having seen a World Series.
You know that, right, It's going to happen, so we are.
We're gonna die without ever having seen a World Series
in this town. I am now more convinced than ever.
And you wrote it on Twitter, and I told you
guys about a month ago, I had a random fleeting
thought in my brain that entered my thought entered my.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Thought process, and then left a few seconds later.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
But for the first time of my life, and I'm
fifty one years old, you're thirty, correct, For the first
time in my life, I actually had a thought, what
if I started to root for a different team? Exactly?
That's my question, is that sad fan that I even
had that thought run through my brain? This has been
so miserable. If they can't find a way to miraculously
pull this turn this around, it's been so miserable. I mean,
(24:47):
they have added another layer of crap to the crap
pie that is known as Mariner baseball. Big all these
things that they've done over the course of their franchise,
and who was the guy John that guy what's his
name that had had the history of the Mariners online whatever?
The other guy I'm talking about, John Wells. John Wells
did a great thing about all the crazy, wacky stuff
(25:08):
that has happened and everything they've done. Now we get
to add to the crap cake that is known as
Mariner baseball another layer that is blowing a ten game
lead in your division and missing the postseason. They've done it,
and they've hit rock bottom. And that is why I
just was walking the dog I'm like, you know what,
what if I were a Braves fan. What if I
(25:28):
were a Cardinals just picked up a second team? What
if I were a Giant fan right and just rooted
for somebody else. So look, I don't want to do that.
I want to be the hometown guy. I love my team.
I live and die with them. They make me nuts
and when things happen, I go bananas. And I can't
imagine ever rooting for somebody else, and it will likely
never happen. But the fact that I'm even allowing this
to be a process in my brain waves is unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (25:52):
It is, And I mean, the reality situation is, I've
told you guys, I've had apathy for like the last
month for the Mariners, and I haven't watched them for
the last two three weeks weeks, and I'm kind of done,
Like unless they make this improbable run, I'm just I
just I just don't care.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
What does that mean? Paint that pick? What is being
done mean?
Speaker 5 (26:08):
So when you guys talk about it, I'll listen, but like, listen, wait,
when you guys put it this way, this is a
good comparison. So when you guys talk Huskies or Seahawks, like,
I am so engaged and I'm listening and I'm really
soaking up the whole conversation, and I'm so into it
when you guys talk Mariners like, I'm gonna be here
and I'm gonna be running the show, and I'm gonna
be obviously, like from a technical aspect, making sure I'm engaged. Yeah,
(26:30):
but I'm not into that conversation interest I'm not watching.
They'll make a free agent signing and I'll kind of
just absorb it and then move on with my life.
But I'm just so done with this organization before, you know,
as long as they don't reset, because it's just same old,
same old, and Dick, I think, God, the way you
summed it up last segment about what the priorities of
ownership are, it's so dead on. And when our priorities
(26:53):
are with somebody being a leader whose goal is fifty
four percent, every other organization in the city probably would say, no,
our goal is to win a title. Their goal is
fifty four percent already on that fans should be off
the wagon. I'm off the wagon now finally, And unless
they make an probable run of the playoffs and get
me back on board this whole offseason and through or
through most of next year. Probably I'm gonna keep this apathy.
(27:16):
So yeah, if there's a secondary team. I have family
who lives in Arizona. Do I root a little bit.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
For the Diamondbacks? Corbyn Carroll, right, local kid?
Speaker 5 (27:23):
Maybe that's the answer, because I'm just tired of giving
my interest and giving my heart and giving my emotion
into a product that doesn't love me back.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
This is already, this is already the team.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
There's only been six teams in the wild Card Era
that have won ninety three or more games and have
missed the playoffs. The Mariners have done it twice of
those six teams. Wow, so you're already a team that
is historically, you know, miss the playoffs with good records,
and now you're gonna add to that resume the only
(27:58):
team in the Wildcard Era to be ten games up
in first place and missed the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
I mean, like, the list of failures never seems to end.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
My buddy Pete just texted, that's the dumbest question you've
ever asked on air.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Hughes wife is by far the best looking of all

Now time for Softy and Digg's Fun with Audio. Jimmy
g pawn Star Jimmy mister garoppolo. Now let's have some
fun with audio, all right?
Speaker 4 (28:32):
This is a afternoon show Staple Safty Dick Jackson in
for Ian Forns Jessamon Anders Anders We do this every
day on our show at three forty five. Really, what
happens when you fill in on a different show. All
the stupid stuff that we won't even try on our show,
we do on this show like a kind of a
guinea pig.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
You know, we just see it like on a trial basis.
But we know this is a winner. We know this works.
I mean, who doesn't love fun with Audio? Here we go, Hey, Dick,
did you happen to hear that? What's that?
Speaker 4 (29:00):
For a moment during last night's NFL opener, it looked
like the Ravens had scored a touchdown his time expired
to give them a chance to win the game with
a two point conversion. Here's what that play in the
replay reversal sounded like. On KJR and Westwood One with
our friend Kevin Harlan and Kurt Warner on the call.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
Here we go five seconds left at the Kansas City
ten third and goal.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Jackson is in the gun.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
He's got three receivers split three on the line, six
in the secondary for the Chiefs shotgun snap. He moves
up in the pocket, white tackle block. He runs around
in a circle, cutches on throws in the end zone.
It's caught in the back of the end zone. Withere
a feet down, likely got it touchdowg touch dog touchdown,
pot of ar likely back of the end zone and
(29:45):
a leap calls it down the ruling of touchdown.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
He caught it.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
We're his feet in oh one was and the toe
of the other looks like it's on the chalk. I
think he's out of bottons. I'm Winsey Kevin. I think
he's out of bounds. Two hit out of bounds. It's
to make the three pass.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
The game is over. Where's the steady his right?
Speaker 3 (30:09):
And if this game is any indicator, this is gonna
be one great NFL season.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Well, first of all, is there a better name for
our wide receiver in that situation? He's likely scoring a
Texas likely has scored. We need the Ravens call. Dude,
we got to get the Ravens call. Where's the Jerry Sandusky.
We got to get the Ravens call. Track that sucker down.
I thought it was the right call.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
There's a lot r CA and you know what everybody's saying,
he should have worn white shoes. He's wearing white shoes.
You never know.
Speaker 6 (30:36):
Yeah, I'm a home said he should have worn Lamara
Jackson still stuck in this ultimate universe, He said, well,
I still think he scored. Well, no, Lamar, there's the picture.
He didn't score. When's the last time an NFL game
ended on a replay? Oh?
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Boy? Good call? Like I can't remember the last time
that it was triple zeros on the clock for a replay. Yeah,
well look, I mean both those teams are gonna be good.
Last night?
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Was it Isaiah Likely that said that? You know, hey, man,
that's our worst game we'll play all year long. So
good luck, kandasit you.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
I love it. I thought it was a great debut
for the NFL.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
Man.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
All right, hey, Dick, did you happen to hear that?
What's that? Dick?
Speaker 4 (31:13):
During the Chiefs final drive last night, Patrick Mahomes scrambling
and falling down as he runs out of bountains. Ravens
linebacker Rookwan Smith then talked about getting pushed in the
back on the same play during his postgame press conference.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
Oh he flopped, Yeah, he flopped. That's why they referees
didn't call. It was a great call, but a great
no call by a riff. But whoever eighty eight is,
I don't know who he is, but he better watch it,
watch himself.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
He did it.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
He did a little slip push. Was there somebody on
the sideline that pushed you as well?
Speaker 6 (31:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (31:40):
Whoever number eight eight is, I have no idea who
he is, but I'll see him when I see him.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Hender shot, Yeah, hender shot. I was just looking it up.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
They got three tight ends on their roster that play
a lot because they just gave the backup like eighteen
million dollars yesterday.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
Man, they love their tight ends in Kansas City. I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
It just seems like there's this like little spat rivalry
brewing between Kansas City and Baltimore. You know, you'd never
kind of assume that two teams in different divisions would
hate each other's guts the way these guys do. But
it's pretty obvious after watching these guys talk after the game.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
What did you think?
Speaker 6 (32:15):
And I want to ask you this questions, well, what
did you think of the Mike McDonald len Mike McDonald
less Baltimore Ravens defense. I mean, was there a noticeable
difference without Mike McDonald than there was with.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
It's unfair, I think to judge it against that guy
mahomes right, right, but you can kind.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Of compare to how they played in the AFC championing
game against me. Yeah, right, I mean they look worse
without him, didn't you think?
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Yes, yeah, yes that was If you're asking me my take,
it's significantly worse. But yes, I mean, and they should
be worse, right, I mean, af few Millon's right that
they've got the most accomplished defensive mind on the planet.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Right now, I'm in a terrified state right now. Then
how would they get better?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
How would they get better by losing the best defense
of mine in the world, unless there's a new best
defensive mind in the world.
Speaker 6 (33:03):
Well, they scored ten more points than they did against
the Mike McDonald led defense.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Now Lamar Jackson looked good.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
I mean, I would not be shocked at the Ravens
and Chiefs are playing for the AFC Championship.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Would you know those two teams again? We're all right, Hey, Dick,
did you happen to hear that? What's that? Dick?
Speaker 4 (33:18):
