insurance companies that will bully you rue. I don't know, Maru.
Now with Petros, here's Dave Softy Muller.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Alrighty, boys and girls, here we go.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
It's been a couple of weeks since we've had the
honor hashtag blessed to talk to this man Gollo Busy
Gallo crazy on Radio Row in San Francisco last week.
So we missed this guy, one half of the legendary
Petros and Money Show in La usc football star damn
fine Greek American husband of the month, Father of the Year,
(00:56):
and my personal close friend Petros Papadocus Sprawn to you.
Bye y yeah, yeah, Jesus, yeah, I mean you just.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I got a horse voice, man, Stop.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
It, Sweet James, the Dead's beard of Justice. If you've
ever been in a car accident, you know it's very difficult.
The insurance companies have a plan and you don't. That's
why you need legal representation. Eight hundred and nine million.
That's eight hundred nine zero zero zero zero zero zero.
For Sweet James, They've a massed over a billion dollars
for many clients over the years.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
And they could be for you a big success story.
So go to sweet James dot com. I don't think
just it's not my interview to do.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
But it is just say do whatever you want take O.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
I'm just saying I don't have that ability and I'm
not up there with the many controls and Jackson and
Dick standing by. But I do have to say that
I don't think championship.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Level sports is a healthy thing for you in your town,
for the teams that you root. If I'm being dead
on and you're really one of the only people that
I genuinely like that roots this much for anything, Oh god.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
And I have to say it is a no when situation.
You get into these situations and it's just your job
as a sports talk guy, but.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
It's not even that. It's just being a super.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Fan and an employee on and off for a lot
of these different entities. But when they get too far
and then they lose, you're devastated. You're a You're gutted.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah, you're questioning everything for days and extra days. You're unhappy,
lashing out at others. This is true and Twitter with Canadians,
(03:23):
am I wrong? And if you win, if you win,
you scream yourself in well, either way, you scream yourself
inside out. Your voice is literally I mean, and guys
like you and I like, we don't have a lot
going for us. Your voice is literally your living It
(03:46):
is your livelihood to have a voice that works, to
do radio. And yet you cannot as a grown man,
you cannot controllers. It is amazing to me, Oh God,
that you cannot control yourself for these moments. Control myself
(04:10):
like it wasn't that great of a super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Okay, timeouts.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I will not have you slander the Seahawks second championship
in franchise history, number than the last one.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Number one.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
You're acting like I'm exposing myself in public and running
down Fourth Avenue.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
You probably did during the parade. I did not. It
was third Avenue.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Okay. Second of all, you sound like every other meathead
idiot in sports talk radio. I just got done blasting
off on Rob Parker. You know who Rob is, by
the way, I just got done blasting off on Rob Parker,
that meathead for his dumb ass Sam Darnold take that
we had last segment. He's calling him scam Darnald after
(04:59):
the game that he had, almost like he can't comprehend
in his pea sized brain that a team can actually
go out and win a title based on their defense.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
And that's exactly what happened.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
And I will not have anybody, let alone you, uh,
try to minimize what my favorite team just did. Well, No,
I wouldn't do that.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
I mean, obviously it's a great thing and I'm really
happy I milked it like a big cow. On Monday,
I put Edojaron.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
On, Oh did you really?
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
What did Ed have to say about.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
He talked about when he went down and recruited Sam
and San Clemente right when he was playing linebackers still
and some wide receiver and was more of a basketball
star than a football star. Y, What did Ed, some
fat faced, bearded organ douche I have.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
To say about it?
Speaker 3 (05:48):
What did he have to say about him, Edojaron.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Yes, he said that they offered him that day and
they got him on film just running around and doing cone.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
You're not getting it.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You're not getting it, coach to be me today. So no, no,
I'm not doing your I'm not playing in your reindeer game. What.
There's not a lot of things that you're good at.
He impressions are one of them.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
He did say something to the effect of every day
on South Beach patrols, I'll see the skallface mural and
not think of you see. And then we had Heimi
or ortiz On, who is Sam Donald's high school coach
from Saint Clementy still the coach there to tell the
(06:37):
story of Sam Donald.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
We should put them on our show.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Yeah, well I got his number, so that was cool
that that was cool. So we milked it to and
I'm really happy for Sam. And look, they didn't they
didn't need football teams are smart, and this happened in
a lot of Super Bowls. If you have a team
hemmed up defensively with your great defense, and if you
(07:04):
have them basically to a point where they're not moving
the ball at all, then you are allowed to be
as conservative as you want to be on offense and
on third and four or whatever, pass it to the
tight end so he can go get it. And a
lot of people, I think, all of us who love
Sam Darnold and were rooting for him, were worried that
(07:26):
he would throw picks or something in the Super Bowl
and all the haters would get to come out and
do their hater peacock parade and say they were right
the whole time in the last eight years. Hot hot
take bs.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
So I'm glad and I'm not you know, but even
if Tom Brady's your quarterback, or Peyton Manning's your quarterback,
or anybody who's a great performer that we think about
in a Super Bowl, if your defense is playing like that,
the offense dials it back.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
And obviously the special teams are a big part of
why Seattle had success all years. Huge, there's so much
the narrative in Los Angeles is, well, if this had happened,
and if this had happened, because clearly they needed Sam
Darnold to be great against the Rams.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
And was he yeah twice twice asolutely yes.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
So I don't understand where everybody's coming from, just because look,
if you know, I don't care who your quarterback is.
You could have Sonny six killer. Is that funny? I
just saw Sonny like six weeks of God bless it.
All I'm saying is it doesn't matter who the quarterback is.
(08:38):
If you don't have to put the ball at risk
in the Super Bowl, most coaches aren't going to do it.
And that's what happened in this situation. And I'm really
happy for Sam. I'm just saying. My only point is
there weren't that many moments for you to yell your
face inside out, but it apparently you still have. Well,
this was kind of a slow death for the past.
(08:58):
What you're hearing now is not because of anything that
happened on Sunday. And honestly, my voice was relatively okay
on on Monday and Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Parade what now what?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Well? Part of it drinking in the Bay Area, yes,
but keep that between us. Part of what happened today
is that I was out in the cold for three
or four hours and I have a little bit of
a cough, a little bit of a cold, and it's
starting to get to me a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
I'm taking medication for it.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Outdoors all day and I was outside and it just
kind of led to a little bit of a cough
and cold.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
So why do you give me a freaking break.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
For I'm just saying, I just don't think it's good
for you, yeah, for them to have this kind of success.
And then I got into a you know, argument with
state patrol officers on the parade route today. They wouldn't
they know who you were, Yeah, but they didn't give
a damn. They wouldn't let me on the street. You know.
Normally we're out there on the street and we're talking
to players and coaches, and everybody had to stay behind
(09:52):
a barricade.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So that pissed me off.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Treated like a laper.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I got treated like a regular schmuck today.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Was Dick out there? Did he? You have to go
behind the barricade as well? Dick was with his family
as a fan watching the parade. Jackson was down the
street on his phone reporting as well from the mouth
of the parade, and I was at the anus of
the parade on the other end. Okay, so yeah, we
had a great time, But I find myself in that
area very often, the anus of the parade of everywhere.
(10:21):
Are you a big parade guy? By the way, no,
I am not. Would you are you surprised? Oh? Not
at all.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
When was the last time you went to a parade?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
And then I rode in the King's Parade when they
won the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh, the LA King's Parade?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Yeah? Why would Sacramento Kings? Why would you ride in
the LA King's Parade? Because they were on the station
and our boss was like, ma, man, you're gonna ride
on the parade?
Speaker 4 (10:45):
And I was very I was very close close to
being decapitated by one of the overpasses.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Oh really on the La Was that before after you
walked into a tree? It was before? Remember that? Yeah?
I do remember you walked into a tree. I'm not terrible.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Oh God, did I tell you that? I drove from
San Francisco to San Jose with no car keys.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
On Friday night? How did the car get started? It
was already started. I drove from Moscone Center you know
where that is in downtown San Francisco, and I dropped
off Dick at his hotel because he was in San
France and I was going down to San Jose to
stay there for the week. It was like high maintenance.
Yet doesn't report on the parade. Gotta get dropped off.
(11:27):
Nobody needs dropped off in San Francisco getting the Way
Moo and died.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, well there's another Waymo story.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
But I heard that somebody texted me that you, uh
the trunk it drove off with all your gear.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
No, a buddy of mine, Not me, but a buddy
of mine guy that is in the sports memorabilia industry.
How I had one thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Ye, the way Moo took off down the road.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
But I drop off Dick at his hotel, cars running,
I just keep going and Dick had the car keys
in his pocket.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
And I don't even realize that until I got to
San Jose.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
When I shut off the car and the car is
sitting outside the hotel on a busy street across from
the see A hotel. I'm thinking, we're gonna have to
put this thing a neutral and shove it to the
Valet parking lot. So we had to call an uber
driver to bring the car keys down from San Francisco. Wow, Yeah,
I stood out there. No. I went to dinner and
Original Jo's and waited, Oh that's nice.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I just told the guy.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
I gave the guy fifty bucks, and I said watch
the car Oh god, hey, you know what, pet tros
let me ask you a question, because you know him
pretty well. I think you know what makes him tick.
You think Pete Carroll watched the Super Bowl on Sunday.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Oh yeah, well that is one thing Ed Ojeron said
on the show. What he said, Well, Pete Carrol built
that team and put that team to get on a chemistry.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Carol, Well, there is some truth to that.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
There's a lot of a lot of pieces on this
team were brought in by him and John Schneider, but
a lot of the scheme and a lot of other
players were brought in by John and McDonald. So you
think he enjoyed watching the game on Sunday.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
Maybe maybe giving himself some credit. Maybe he was with
people that were giving him credit, like hey, Pete, great
call there, Pete. That guy's we look at that Chennanewosu.
That's you, Pete, way to go right, that kind of thing.
Perhaps that was happening. But I don't know, I mean,
I don't know how bitter. I mean, it is kind
(13:19):
of weird because they forced him out and they were
like he's going to the front office and he's like.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
No, it was food.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
And then That's exactly what happened. And basically the guy
that got him fired, Gino Smith. He then goes to
Oakland and then brings that guy with him to get
him fired.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Again, right right.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
I don't you know that just it doesn't seem like
sound decision making here toward the end of his career.
But he did great things at Seattle, and they were
always really competitive, and he brought you to two Super
Bowls for you to scream yourself into oblivion. That's it's
just like you've done this time. And I'm sure leave
your car keys and met.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Life in various other places for the last few years.
That is unfortunate about the car. It was well, it
all worked out, but my god, was I scared out
of my You know what.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
For about an hour, I was like, are you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
You think it was gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Ady Harry was gonna get in a gunfight right in
front of you or something.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I honestly have no idea. I guess I thought the
car would be stuck there forever. We'd have to call
a tow truck or something. Man, You know, I got
the white Gina came in the next night.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
You know, I got to.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Deal with that, and she's gonna get very she's gonna
get pissed at me just in the middle of the road.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
You're an idiot. You're not taking your memory pills. What
the hell's wrong.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Well, let me take the moment to congratulate everybody in
the city of Seattle for a great year and a
fabulous super Bowl, the world's number one sport, one of
the biggest moneymakers out there, and Seattle sits on top
of the mountain with its beak in the air way
to go thank you, thank you, You're welcome and get
(14:57):
down here.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
They're like, oh, you know, Stafford was the best. He
was clearly the best. It's like, well, no, I mean,
if there was only a way. They're like, look at
the stats. They line up so well, and it's like, well, yeah,
if there was only a way for people to figure
it out, right, you know, like a way if since
they're so close on paper, if there was just some
way to settle no, no, another way, so other an
(15:23):
analytical way.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
He was actually phenomenal in three games against the Seahawks
this year.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Sure, great and and and there were moments where he
screwed up or they had special teams they didn't pay
as much attention to as Seattle did. Right for whatever
reason this or that, the circumstance of football led to
Seattle winning at all, and they deserve it. I just
hate the if only this and if only that aftermath
of when people see that obviously New England wasn't going
(15:52):
to be up to the task offensively. It's a big,
very deflating sort of feeling for everybody that wants a
good game. Not people that just want to win, right you,
but people that want to be entertained. And overall, I
think it was one of the more forgettable, and Seattle
was involved in that other very forgettable one where you
(16:13):
guys blew out Denver. Of course, the last one against
the Patriots, one of the great games of all time,
didn't end very well for you, And that's one of
those things. It takes a lot away for It takes
a lot out of you, and I'm concerned about it.
I just I don't think it's I think you are
a lot healthier when Steve Largent would just get beat
in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
He was at the parade today, he was at the
super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Awesome, he was there. That's my guy. He's one of
my favorites. He listen to Nebraska, doesn't he say?
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Oh, Oklahoma?
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Okay, he's a politician or ex politician from Oklahoma.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
God fearing man.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
All right, man, great stuff, appreciate the honesty about what.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
Well, I'm just you know, don't you think you need
a few years where just a few down years were
Washington football or basketball or even the Kraken maybe the.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Sound you know, like you, I just think you need
a little time off. Okay, Well I'm taking time off
starting next Monday. So no, no, I'm talking about time off.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
Yeah, time off from like years off from your team's competia.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Well, you know what, That's all I knew growing up
as a kid man, all right, So now we're making
up for lost time. I mean, I'm fifty two years
old and this is only the second champion running around
the tender Loin without your car keys exactly. That's because
I'm old as dirt. All Right, we gotta go. You're
the best, great stuff.
Speaker 4 (17:39):

You're not getting it, coach to be me today. So no, no,
I'm not doing your I'm not playing in your reindeer game. What.
There's not a lot of things that you're good at.
He impressions are one of them.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
He did say something to the effect of every day
on South Beach patrols, I'll see the skallface mural and
not think of you see. And then we had Heimi
or ortiz On, who is Sam Donald's high school coach
from Saint Clementy still the coach there to tell the
(06:37):
story of Sam Donald.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
We should put them on our show.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Yeah, well I got his number, so that was cool
that that was cool. So we milked it to and
I'm really happy for Sam. And look, they didn't they
didn't need football teams are smart, and this happened in
a lot of Super Bowls. If you have a team
hemmed up defensively with your great defense, and if you
(07:04):
have them basically to a point where they're not moving
the ball at all, then you are allowed to be
as conservative as you want to be on offense and
on third and four or whatever, pass it to the
tight end so he can go get it. And a
lot of people, I think, all of us who love
Sam Darnold and were rooting for him, were worried that
(07:26):
he would throw picks or something in the Super Bowl
and all the haters would get to come out and
do their hater peacock parade and say they were right
the whole time in the last eight years. Hot hot
take bs.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
So I'm glad and I'm not you know, but even
if Tom Brady's your quarterback, or Peyton Manning's your quarterback,
or anybody who's a great performer that we think about
in a Super Bowl, if your defense is playing like that,
the offense dials it back.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
And obviously the special teams are a big part of
why Seattle had success all years. Huge, there's so much
the narrative in Los Angeles is, well, if this had happened,
and if this had happened, because clearly they needed Sam
Darnold to be great against the Rams.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
And was he yeah twice twice asolutely yes.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
So I don't understand where everybody's coming from, just because look,
if you know, I don't care who your quarterback is.
You could have Sonny six killer. Is that funny? I
just saw Sonny like six weeks of God bless it.
All I'm saying is it doesn't matter who the quarterback is.
(08:38):
If you don't have to put the ball at risk
in the Super Bowl, most coaches aren't going to do it.
And that's what happened in this situation. And I'm really
happy for Sam. I'm just saying. My only point is
there weren't that many moments for you to yell your
face inside out, but it apparently you still have. Well,
this was kind of a slow death for the past.
(08:58):
What you're hearing now is not because of anything that
happened on Sunday. And honestly, my voice was relatively okay
on on Monday and Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Parade what now what?
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Well? Part of it drinking in the Bay Area, yes,
but keep that between us. Part of what happened today
is that I was out in the cold for three
or four hours and I have a little bit of
a cough, a little bit of a cold, and it's
starting to get to me a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
I'm taking medication for it.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Outdoors all day and I was outside and it just
kind of led to a little bit of a cough
and cold.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
So why do you give me a freaking break.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
For I'm just saying, I just don't think it's good
for you, yeah, for them to have this kind of success.
And then I got into a you know, argument with
state patrol officers on the parade route today. They wouldn't
they know who you were, Yeah, but they didn't give
a damn. They wouldn't let me on the street. You know.
Normally we're out there on the street and we're talking
to players and coaches, and everybody had to stay behind
(09:52):
a barricade.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So that pissed me off.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Treated like a laper.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I got treated like a regular schmuck today.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Was Dick out there? Did he? You have to go
behind the barricade as well? Dick was with his family
as a fan watching the parade. Jackson was down the
street on his phone reporting as well from the mouth
of the parade, and I was at the anus of
the parade on the other end. Okay, so yeah, we
had a great time, But I find myself in that
area very often, the anus of the parade of everywhere.
(10:21):
Are you a big parade guy? By the way, no,
I am not. Would you are you surprised? Oh? Not
at all.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
When was the last time you went to a parade?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
And then I rode in the King's Parade when they
won the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh, the LA King's Parade?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Yeah? Why would Sacramento Kings? Why would you ride in
the LA King's Parade? Because they were on the station
and our boss was like, ma, man, you're gonna ride
on the parade?
Speaker 4 (10:45):
And I was very I was very close close to
being decapitated by one of the overpasses.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Oh really on the La Was that before after you
walked into a tree? It was before? Remember that? Yeah?
I do remember you walked into a tree. I'm not terrible.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Oh God, did I tell you that? I drove from
San Francisco to San Jose with no car keys.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
On Friday night? How did the car get started? It
was already started. I drove from Moscone Center you know
where that is in downtown San Francisco, and I dropped
off Dick at his hotel because he was in San
France and I was going down to San Jose to
stay there for the week. It was like high maintenance.
Yet doesn't report on the parade. Gotta get dropped off.
(11:27):
Nobody needs dropped off in San Francisco getting the Way
Moo and died.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah, well there's another Waymo story.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
But I heard that somebody texted me that you, uh
the trunk it drove off with all your gear.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
No, a buddy of mine, Not me, but a buddy
of mine guy that is in the sports memorabilia industry.
How I had one thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Ye, the way Moo took off down the road.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
But I drop off Dick at his hotel, cars running,
I just keep going and Dick had the car keys
in his pocket.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
And I don't even realize that until I got to
San Jose.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
When I shut off the car and the car is
sitting outside the hotel on a busy street across from
the see A hotel. I'm thinking, we're gonna have to
put this thing a neutral and shove it to the
Valet parking lot. So we had to call an uber
driver to bring the car keys down from San Francisco. Wow, Yeah,
I stood out there. No. I went to dinner and
Original Jo's and waited, Oh that's nice.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I just told the guy.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
I gave the guy fifty bucks, and I said watch
the car Oh god, hey, you know what, pet tros
let me ask you a question, because you know him
pretty well. I think you know what makes him tick.
You think Pete Carroll watched the Super Bowl on Sunday.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Oh yeah, well that is one thing Ed Ojeron said
on the show. What he said, Well, Pete Carrol built
that team and put that team to get on a chemistry.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Carol, Well, there is some truth to that.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
There's a lot of a lot of pieces on this
team were brought in by him and John Schneider, but
a lot of the scheme and a lot of other
players were brought in by John and McDonald. So you
think he enjoyed watching the game on Sunday.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
Maybe maybe giving himself some credit. Maybe he was with
people that were giving him credit, like hey, Pete, great
call there, Pete. That guy's we look at that Chennanewosu.
That's you, Pete, way to go right, that kind of thing.
Perhaps that was happening. But I don't know, I mean,
I don't know how bitter. I mean, it is kind
(13:19):
of weird because they forced him out and they were
like he's going to the front office and he's like.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
No, it was food.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
And then That's exactly what happened. And basically the guy
that got him fired, Gino Smith. He then goes to
Oakland and then brings that guy with him to get
him fired.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Again, right right.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
I don't you know that just it doesn't seem like
sound decision making here toward the end of his career.
But he did great things at Seattle, and they were
always really competitive, and he brought you to two Super
Bowls for you to scream yourself into oblivion. That's it's
just like you've done this time. And I'm sure leave
your car keys and met.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Life in various other places for the last few years.
That is unfortunate about the car. It was well, it
all worked out, but my god, was I scared out
of my You know what.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
For about an hour, I was like, are you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
You think it was gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Ady Harry was gonna get in a gunfight right in
front of you or something.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I honestly have no idea. I guess I thought the
car would be stuck there forever. We'd have to call
a tow truck or something. Man, You know, I got
the white Gina came in the next night.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
You know, I got to.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Deal with that, and she's gonna get very she's gonna
get pissed at me just in the middle of the road.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
You're an idiot. You're not taking your memory pills. What
the hell's wrong.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Well, let me take the moment to congratulate everybody in
the city of Seattle for a great year and a
fabulous super Bowl, the world's number one sport, one of
the biggest moneymakers out there, and Seattle sits on top
of the mountain with its beak in the air way
to go thank you, thank you, You're welcome and get
(14:57):
down here.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
They're like, oh, you know, Stafford was the best. He
was clearly the best. It's like, well, no, I mean,
if there was only a way. They're like, look at
the stats. They line up so well, and it's like, well, yeah,
if there was only a way for people to figure
it out, right, you know, like a way if since
they're so close on paper, if there was just some
way to settle no, no, another way, so other an
(15:23):
analytical way.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
He was actually phenomenal in three games against the Seahawks
this year.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Sure, great and and and there were moments where he
screwed up or they had special teams they didn't pay
as much attention to as Seattle did. Right for whatever
reason this or that, the circumstance of football led to
Seattle winning at all, and they deserve it. I just
hate the if only this and if only that aftermath
of when people see that obviously New England wasn't going
(15:52):
to be up to the task offensively. It's a big,
very deflating sort of feeling for everybody that wants a
good game. Not people that just want to win, right you,
but people that want to be entertained. And overall, I
think it was one of the more forgettable, and Seattle
was involved in that other very forgettable one where you
(16:13):
guys blew out Denver. Of course, the last one against
the Patriots, one of the great games of all time,
didn't end very well for you, And that's one of
those things. It takes a lot away for It takes
a lot out of you, and I'm concerned about it.
I just I don't think it's I think you are
a lot healthier when Steve Largent would just get beat
in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
He was at the parade today, he was at the
super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Awesome, he was there. That's my guy. He's one of
my favorites. He listen to Nebraska, doesn't he say?
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Oh, Oklahoma?
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Okay, he's a politician or ex politician from Oklahoma.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
God fearing man.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
All right, man, great stuff, appreciate the honesty about what.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
Well, I'm just you know, don't you think you need
a few years where just a few down years were
Washington football or basketball or even the Kraken maybe the.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Sound you know, like you, I just think you need
a little time off. Okay, Well I'm taking time off
starting next Monday. So no, no, I'm talking about time off.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
Yeah, time off from like years off from your team's competia.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Well, you know what, That's all I knew growing up
as a kid man, all right, So now we're making
up for lost time. I mean, I'm fifty two years
old and this is only the second champion running around
the tender Loin without your car keys exactly. That's because
I'm old as dirt. All Right, we gotta go. You're
the best, great stuff.
Speaker 4 (17:39):

off and spit them into the Willamette. But grab your nuts. Wow,

such a stupid question? There were losers. I'm here in
