it. Sit on the space needle. Northwestern comes to Seattle in September winter
lose the Battle of the Purples.That's right. You know, there's not
a lot of purp in the collegefootball world. There's Washington, there's Northwestern,
there's LSU, and there's Kansas State. Mm hmmmm and Ecuy not a
(04:40):
lot of purp. Okay, Soall I'm saying Northwestern, you don't.

the Dogs three and one week Weekfour at the Rutgers Scarlet Knights in Piscataway,
New Jersey, Friday Night on FoxSeiano's gonna get somebody. He's gonna

he Man, you get to launchhimself in there at Rutgers. Come on,
I will beat the Knights, allright. Four and one. The
(05:25):
Michigan Wolverines coming to town October,the fifth Tough Game rematch of the Natty.
I'll take the Wolverine. Take theWolverines, right and if you beat
the Wolverines, you'll have lost toRutgers, all right. So the Dogs

They're going to Iowa. We're goingto Cedar Rapids to fly into Iowa
(05:46):
for the Iowa game. Never beenlooking forward to going. What's the date?
October the twelfth at Iowa. I'mgonna give it to you, all
right. Five and I don't knowwhy. I don't know why. Okay,
bye week before they head to Bloomington, Indiana taking on the now.
Now, listen, you never knowwhat happens in the bye week. You
(06:10):
could have five guys get in alot of trouble. You could lose your
whole team on a boat like theylost Sark that one time. Is that
more likely to happen under Fisher thanit was Debor or what? Yes?
You think? So? I believe? So? Oh okay, So the
bye week, I don't know.You might lose at Indiana. You lose,
(06:31):
really yeah, because you're either gonnalose to Indiana or ioway you're not
gonna win. One of those.USC comes to town November two. Wow,
Huskis are five and three. Sofar I like sc to beat you,
all right, Huskis are five andfour At Penn State Beaver Stadium November
ninth, you're five hundred, you'refive and five UCLA in town with the
(06:55):
Sean Foster Friday night, they mightnot cross the fifty six and five.
We had I play Hey, there'sno shame ninety six. I went up
there with Choak and he put aSerbian skewer through our nuts. We we
did not cross the fifty. Idon't think. All right, bye week
(07:15):
uh, and then you go toOdts and to face the Ducks on November
the thirtieth. M Huskies are sixand five at this point, and we're
replacing bone Nicks, Dylan Gabriel transfer. Oh that guy from Central Florida and
(07:35):
then he went to Oklahoma. Yeahhe's there now he's the organ guy.
Yeah, Oregan's gonna beach. Okay, So the Huskies are going well,
but we do you have the Doyou have the country singer Will Rogers?
We got him, yeah, withhis horse. You know, it's so
stupid to do this because, likeI mean, we barely like these teams
are so I don't even know whythey do the magazines because it's just so
(07:57):
hard to track this. But it'sget on. It's not gonna change like
the the rosters won't change mine.I'm glad, thank you for the live
radio exercise. We have some footballtalk. I need to start sharpening my
football pencil SOFTI you're right, wecould have done this a lot faster.
By the way, I like tohave a little more fun with it.
Soy they like to stretch it outlike caramelo all right, let's have some
(08:18):
fun. Let's have some fun now, all right, way, who doesn't
like a good caromelo? Let's havesome fitch it out chocolate, load of
caramel. It's how much have youbeen talking about this Kaitlin Clark story on
your show in LA? Not toomuch? You know. I did a
national radio I filled in an hourfor Jonas Knox for like four days in
(08:43):
the early morning. Perhaps some ofyour vampire like listeners or the stalker types
were up, or maybe the hobos. Hey I'm up at four o'clock in
the morning. Well there you go. Yeah, I went. I went
from five to six. All right. Uh so we talked a little bit
about it there with LeVar and BradyQuinn, but but not too much,
(09:03):
not on my show. No.I mean the Dodgers are on the East
Coast, so our shows have beenshorter. Yeah, I mean, I
just somebody said something like, uh, the girl that bonked her Kennedy Kennedy
Carter right, Yeah, who waslike kicked off two w NBA teams in
the last two years. No oneseems to be mentioning that. I believe,
So I didn't know that. Dick, the NBA expert left that sequel.
(09:26):
Look at him, is he noddinghis head? He is nodding his
head. Yes, see, youcould have used that information. She was
like, well, what else doesshe bring to the table other than's shooting
threes? And it's like, well, well, the first of all,
she brings the table to the table, right, you know, I mean
that's I mean, with all duerespect, I mean, this is why
(09:48):
people are talking about it. They'renot talking about it. I agree with
everything Dan Patrick said. I agreewith everything that Will Bond and Tony Kornheiser
said. I thought that they werereally good on the topic. Uh.
And it's it's interesting because of coursethere's going to be a great deal of
resentment from people who have been workinghard and doing something and busting their ass
(10:09):
and then to be told they're goingto be saved by this person from Iowa
is probably not very savory. It'sa tough situation for them. But at
the same time, this is anopportunity, you know, I mean,
this is the one time that they'vereally had eyeballs and interest in this sport,
(10:31):
and it doesn't feel like they're doingthat great of a job. Well,
I mean, I guess, youknow, maybe they are because we're
talking about absolutely, but you know, just the schedule, schedule wise,
how many games they've had to play, putting her at risk. Nobody on
that team seems to be protecting her. Understand that that's what they need to
do. Uh, I don't.I don't know, you know, I'm
(10:52):
not. I'm not going to jumpin like Spider Man and act like I
know about women's basketball. You know, I remember maybe we talked about this.
I remember watching a lot of gamesin the tournament this year, and
I did because of Caitlin Clark.No, but I ended up watching other
games that she wasn't involved in becauseI saw peripherally Oregon State, I'm interested,
(11:13):
UCLA, I'm interested, USC,I'm interested. They all had great
players, and LSU was interesting justoff what Kim Mulki was gonna wear.
And I watched a lot of games. And I don't pretend to be an
expert because it was different, youknow, it was different. I never
seen somebody foul out and burst intotears. I've never seen, you know,
(11:35):
I swear to God, you know, I mean I see that with
my kids, you know, Butlike it's a different deal. And I
know these are great athletes. Irespect the hell out of them because I
went to USC and played football andI saw the women's basketball team and saw
what they did, and I getit. But at the same time,
(11:58):
I don't want to act like anex but it feels like they're blowing their
opportunity to really make this work early. Well and if she gets hurt,
right, then forget about it.I mean, well, it's just a
bad look, but it is aI don't know, everybody has a hot
take about it. Everybody is allriled up one way or the other.
Everybody's trying to It's an election year, so everybody's got a boner over one
(12:20):
way or another. You know,they want to make it racial, and
I'm sure all of those elements exist. Buddy, your buddy clet Travis.
You see what he said? Whatdid he see? Your pal Clint Travis.
Yes, you're running partner Cleat Travis. All right, Yes, we
we're old friends, he said,Kaylin Clark' not really political with him.
I don't talk a lot of them, Yeah, but he does. He's
(12:41):
got a show now. Yes,I used to go on his old sports
show, and you're not going onhis news show. And I've never been
on the one with him and thegun guy, so he jumped buck buck
Sexton. He says, that's ahell of a name. By the way,
Kayln Clark is a white hetero sconsure a woman in a black lesbian
(13:01):
league, and they resent and arejealous of all the attention and the shoe
deal that she got. That's whatyour buddy, Clay Clay thinks. Like
a sexual thing, Yeah, athing about sexuality. Well, I mean,
I don't know the situation. Iwill say this, I've seen those
two different groups on teams of womengravitate away from each other, so to
(13:22):
speak. You know, as faras this one group is kind of this
way and this one group is sortof this way. Not that people didn't
get along, but they were definitelyyou know, went on different buses,
so to speak. Like in football, everybody talks about the offensive bus and
the defensive bus, but it's reallyjust the black bus and the white bus,
and then the Samoan dudes are sortof like the variable. That's how
(13:46):
it was in college, Yeah,I mean, that's how it is.
I think it's probably still that wayin the pros. I mean I think,
but I'm not sure. I mean, Clay's obviously a political guy,
and they say things for effect,just like Steven A and everybody else.
But I think there might be sometruth in that. I don't know about
the black or white part, butbut I don't know how like overtly heterosexual
(14:11):
Caitlin Clark is. You know,it's not like she comes off like those
twins in Miami or something like theTwins, you know what I mean.
You know what I mean. Imean, But the Angel Rees thing is
kind of funny. You know,She's like she gets mad and says stuff
and man, everybody jumps on herand it's like these are young people,
but it's it's hard to stomach someof it, Like I've been sexualized.
(14:35):
It's like have you seen your Instagram? Did you win on Sports Illustrated?
You know, the swimsuit issue,like you know, you know, and
that's sadly, I think that's alsoa part of this too. I mean,
if you're gonna be really part ofthe public forum and we're really going
to talk about the sport like wetalk about other sports, people's feathers are
(14:58):
gonna be roughfled people are gonna beAnd we've been treating this league for a
long time because it's been fledgling withkid gloves and nobody wants to offend anybody,
and everybody wants to make sure everybody'syou know, having a good time
and being included. And now nowthere's eyeballs on it, and I'm not
sure everybody knows how to handle it. It is. It is a little
(15:18):
interesting. Sure Dick is handling it. He's been great, man, He's
been phenomenal through the whole thing,professional and beauty. It is interesting that
Angel Reese does say she was sexualizedwhen she's half naked on the internet.
And I mean, look at thispicture. That's I mean, you know,
what do you want? I mean, give me. I mean it's
amazing to me how far apart hereyes are. I think you could stand
(15:39):
directly in front of her and beunseen. I mean she Genie Buss is
like that. Oh god, Brandythe singer was like that. You do
know that her uncle is Sam Cassel. Well, there you go, that's
true. I mean, seriously,she looks like a hammerhead shark. But
(16:02):
God bless her. You know she'sin the public. Oh my god,
Well, am I gonna get introuble for that? No? I don't
know. I think it's all greatfor the w n B A. I
think Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark andthe Kennedy Carter thing, it's it's just
it's all drama. It's bringing moreeyeballs to the league. We're talking more
about this than ever before. Ithink it's awesome. I'm you know what,
I'm having a great time with it. I really do you think that
(16:25):
that the Fever is gonna sign likeJuana Man and just come out there and
start wrecking the other chicks that goafter Well, isn't isn't Paige Becker is
going to be like the number Who'sthat? I don't know. I saw
that should be the number one picknext year. And you you you combine
Caitlin Clark and Paige Beckers, that'slike Superman and Batman teaming up together.
Man, they're gonna be good nextyear. I just sweat. Yeah,
(16:48):
Hey, is lebron hired JJ redickindown there? No, because they have
to wait till the ESPN's over.It's so it's such a charade. And
now old led Judas is talking abouthow he's mad that he doesn't play with
Kyrie Irving. I saw that thatwould be like you getting dick fired and
then like three years, three yearslater, you'd be like, you know
what, I'm really pissed that Idon't get to work with It's like you're
(17:14):
oh God, we love sorry.Oh man, late Judas is angry.
You've been calling him down there.I don't know, I like, I
love it, you know, Ilove the Judas is Scariot call the betrayer
of the Son of Man. Okay, God, man, what you're unreal?
What are you talking about? You'reunreal? You're amazing. I love
(17:37):
you know the best part of thatwas scheduled talk. That's pretty good.
Huh. That banned it out?That wasted eleven minutes. We just stroke.
That's like when you have it like, that's why you have a you
know, you haven't seen your yourlady in a while. You really take
your time, real schedule time.All right, man, we gotta run
good. At what point does PeteCarroll become decoordinator like for the Huskies?
(17:59):
You know? Yeah, like,you know, Brendan's fledgling, we need
to. Don't you think he's kindof already helping out the son of Bill
over there? Do you think he'sgoing to travel to any Husky games.
Well, I see Pete Carroll inIowa or Penn State. Maybe I just
love I still just can't get overthe press conference when he got fired.
He was like a really stooked.I feel sorry for you, frush puped
(18:25):
up. They were trying to gethim on your air man. What oh
yeah, I'm sorry, take iteasy? Are you really? Do you
think Pete would be like Pete wouldn'tgo on there because you're friends with me.
I could see that that's pop.I don't think he knows that we're
Powell's man. No, he knowsbecause he knows I come a trust me.
(18:45):
He's got rabbit ears. Like youthink Pete Carroll knows that you do
this show once a week. Yes, because I saw him once at brock
Osweiler's pro day and he was like, you haven't said anything nice about me
in years. I hear you onthe radio, and he mother F to

fun. Let's have some fun now, all right, way, who doesn't
like a good caromelo? Let's havesome fitch it out chocolate, load of
caramel. It's how much have youbeen talking about this Kaitlin Clark story on
your show in LA? Not toomuch? You know. I did a
national radio I filled in an hourfor Jonas Knox for like four days in
(08:43):
the early morning. Perhaps some ofyour vampire like listeners or the stalker types
were up, or maybe the hobos. Hey I'm up at four o'clock in
the morning. Well there you go. Yeah, I went. I went
from five to six. All right. Uh so we talked a little bit
about it there with LeVar and BradyQuinn, but but not too much,
(09:03):
not on my show. No.I mean the Dodgers are on the East
Coast, so our shows have beenshorter. Yeah, I mean, I
just somebody said something like, uh, the girl that bonked her Kennedy Kennedy
Carter right, Yeah, who waslike kicked off two w NBA teams in
the last two years. No oneseems to be mentioning that. I believe,
So I didn't know that. Dick, the NBA expert left that sequel.
(09:26):
Look at him, is he noddinghis head? He is nodding his
head. Yes, see, youcould have used that information. She was
like, well, what else doesshe bring to the table other than's shooting
threes? And it's like, well, well, the first of all,
she brings the table to the table, right, you know, I mean
that's I mean, with all duerespect, I mean, this is why
(09:48):
people are talking about it. They'renot talking about it. I agree with
everything Dan Patrick said. I agreewith everything that Will Bond and Tony Kornheiser
said. I thought that they werereally good on the topic. Uh.
And it's it's interesting because of coursethere's going to be a great deal of
resentment from people who have been workinghard and doing something and busting their ass
(10:09):
and then to be told they're goingto be saved by this person from Iowa
is probably not very savory. It'sa tough situation for them. But at
the same time, this is anopportunity, you know, I mean,
this is the one time that they'vereally had eyeballs and interest in this sport,
(10:31):
and it doesn't feel like they're doingthat great of a job. Well,
I mean, I guess, youknow, maybe they are because we're
talking about absolutely, but you know, just the schedule, schedule wise,
how many games they've had to play, putting her at risk. Nobody on
that team seems to be protecting her. Understand that that's what they need to
do. Uh, I don't.I don't know, you know, I'm
(10:52):
not. I'm not going to jumpin like Spider Man and act like I
know about women's basketball. You know, I remember maybe we talked about this.
I remember watching a lot of gamesin the tournament this year, and
I did because of Caitlin Clark.No, but I ended up watching other
games that she wasn't involved in becauseI saw peripherally Oregon State, I'm interested,
(11:13):
UCLA, I'm interested, USC,I'm interested. They all had great
players, and LSU was interesting justoff what Kim Mulki was gonna wear.
And I watched a lot of games. And I don't pretend to be an
expert because it was different, youknow, it was different. I never
seen somebody foul out and burst intotears. I've never seen, you know,
(11:35):
I swear to God, you know, I mean I see that with
my kids, you know, Butlike it's a different deal. And I
know these are great athletes. Irespect the hell out of them because I
went to USC and played football andI saw the women's basketball team and saw
what they did, and I getit. But at the same time,
(11:58):
I don't want to act like anex but it feels like they're blowing their
opportunity to really make this work early. Well and if she gets hurt,
right, then forget about it.I mean, well, it's just a
bad look, but it is aI don't know, everybody has a hot
take about it. Everybody is allriled up one way or the other.
Everybody's trying to It's an election year, so everybody's got a boner over one
(12:20):
way or another. You know,they want to make it racial, and
I'm sure all of those elements exist. Buddy, your buddy clet Travis.
You see what he said? Whatdid he see? Your pal Clint Travis.
Yes, you're running partner Cleat Travis. All right, Yes, we
we're old friends, he said,Kaylin Clark' not really political with him.
I don't talk a lot of them, Yeah, but he does. He's
(12:41):
got a show now. Yes,I used to go on his old sports
show, and you're not going onhis news show. And I've never been
on the one with him and thegun guy, so he jumped buck buck
Sexton. He says, that's ahell of a name. By the way,
Kayln Clark is a white hetero sconsure a woman in a black lesbian
(13:01):
league, and they resent and arejealous of all the attention and the shoe
deal that she got. That's whatyour buddy, Clay Clay thinks. Like
a sexual thing, Yeah, athing about sexuality. Well, I mean,
I don't know the situation. Iwill say this, I've seen those
two different groups on teams of womengravitate away from each other, so to
(13:22):
speak. You know, as faras this one group is kind of this
way and this one group is sortof this way. Not that people didn't
get along, but they were definitelyyou know, went on different buses,
so to speak. Like in football, everybody talks about the offensive bus and
the defensive bus, but it's reallyjust the black bus and the white bus,
and then the Samoan dudes are sortof like the variable. That's how
(13:46):
it was in college, Yeah,I mean, that's how it is.
I think it's probably still that wayin the pros. I mean I think,
but I'm not sure. I mean, Clay's obviously a political guy,
and they say things for effect,just like Steven A and everybody else.
But I think there might be sometruth in that. I don't know about
the black or white part, butbut I don't know how like overtly heterosexual
(14:11):
Caitlin Clark is. You know,it's not like she comes off like those
twins in Miami or something like theTwins, you know what I mean.
You know what I mean. Imean, But the Angel Rees thing is
kind of funny. You know,She's like she gets mad and says stuff
and man, everybody jumps on herand it's like these are young people,
but it's it's hard to stomach someof it, Like I've been sexualized.
(14:35):
It's like have you seen your Instagram? Did you win on Sports Illustrated?
You know, the swimsuit issue,like you know, you know, and
that's sadly, I think that's alsoa part of this too. I mean,
if you're gonna be really part ofthe public forum and we're really going
to talk about the sport like wetalk about other sports, people's feathers are
(14:58):
gonna be roughfled people are gonna beAnd we've been treating this league for a
long time because it's been fledgling withkid gloves and nobody wants to offend anybody,
and everybody wants to make sure everybody'syou know, having a good time
and being included. And now nowthere's eyeballs on it, and I'm not
sure everybody knows how to handle it. It is. It is a little
(15:18):
interesting. Sure Dick is handling it. He's been great, man, He's
been phenomenal through the whole thing,professional and beauty. It is interesting that
Angel Reese does say she was sexualizedwhen she's half naked on the internet.
And I mean, look at thispicture. That's I mean, you know,
what do you want? I mean, give me. I mean it's
amazing to me how far apart hereyes are. I think you could stand
(15:39):
directly in front of her and beunseen. I mean she Genie Buss is
like that. Oh god, Brandythe singer was like that. You do
know that her uncle is Sam Cassel. Well, there you go, that's
true. I mean, seriously,she looks like a hammerhead shark. But
(16:02):
God bless her. You know she'sin the public. Oh my god,
Well, am I gonna get introuble for that? No? I don't
know. I think it's all greatfor the w n B A. I
think Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark andthe Kennedy Carter thing, it's it's just
it's all drama. It's bringing moreeyeballs to the league. We're talking more
about this than ever before. Ithink it's awesome. I'm you know what,
I'm having a great time with it. I really do you think that
(16:25):
that the Fever is gonna sign likeJuana Man and just come out there and
start wrecking the other chicks that goafter Well, isn't isn't Paige Becker is
going to be like the number Who'sthat? I don't know. I saw
that should be the number one picknext year. And you you you combine
Caitlin Clark and Paige Beckers, that'slike Superman and Batman teaming up together.
Man, they're gonna be good nextyear. I just sweat. Yeah,
(16:48):
Hey, is lebron hired JJ redickindown there? No, because they have
to wait till the ESPN's over.It's so it's such a charade. And
now old led Judas is talking abouthow he's mad that he doesn't play with
Kyrie Irving. I saw that thatwould be like you getting dick fired and
then like three years, three yearslater, you'd be like, you know
what, I'm really pissed that Idon't get to work with It's like you're
(17:14):
oh God, we love sorry.Oh man, late Judas is angry.
You've been calling him down there.I don't know, I like, I
love it, you know, Ilove the Judas is Scariot call the betrayer
of the Son of Man. Okay, God, man, what you're unreal?
What are you talking about? You'reunreal? You're amazing. I love

Huh. That banned it out?That wasted eleven minutes. We just stroke.
That's like when you have it like, that's why you have a you
know, you haven't seen your yourlady in a while. You really take
your time, real schedule time.All right, man, we gotta run
good. At what point does PeteCarroll become decoordinator like for the Huskies?
(17:59):
You know? Yeah, like,you know, Brendan's fledgling, we need
to. Don't you think he's kindof already helping out the son of Bill
over there? Do you think he'sgoing to travel to any Husky games.
Well, I see Pete Carroll inIowa or Penn State. Maybe I just
love I still just can't get overthe press conference when he got fired.
He was like a really stooked.I feel sorry for you, frush puped
(18:25):
up. They were trying to gethim on your air man. What oh
yeah, I'm sorry, take iteasy? Are you really? Do you
think Pete would be like Pete wouldn'tgo on there because you're friends with me.
I could see that that's pop.I don't think he knows that we're
Powell's man. No, he knowsbecause he knows I come a trust me.
(18:45):
He's got rabbit ears. Like youthink Pete Carroll knows that you do
this show once a week. Yes, because I saw him once at brock
Osweiler's pro day and he was like, you haven't said anything nice about me
