Good morning, everybody. My name is Bart Winkler. This is the Bart Winkler Show. Happy Thursday, Sweet 16. Gets underway.
Everybody's brackets mess. See, I'm doing the same thing I do every year. I have an Alabama-Houston final. Which I should be pretty pumped about, right? Uh but like every other pick I had along the way is wrong.
So I'm like thinking I do well. And then I'm in some of these bracket pools that are so big. That uh I don't know how some people do it. I don't know how they do it. it's always like do you take up sets do you not take upsets You have to like take one and hit on the right one.
It's hard. And I've been planning my uh Income for the 2023 calendar year. And sometimes when you're just kind of doing a pod and hoping for some CBS shifts. You got to hit a fantasy win or two along the way. And so I did budget for a fantasy football victory in the league, which I did win.
But I also thought, I'll do okay in some of these March Madness things. And I didn't. Uh I'll be eating ramen. My wife and kid will be fine. They can eat the filet mignons from Omaha steaks.
They can eat the pork tenderloins. They can eat the apple tartlets. $30 off at checkout, by the way. Omahasteaks.com, promo code BART. But uh I'll be eating Soup in a shoe.
Before we get into the Bucs postgame. Beat the Spurs last night. I do want to mention. The 15 minutes on Wednesday. that Packer Nation thought they were getting Elijah Moore.
Wide receiver with the Jets. uh on his rookie contract And what had happened was the Jets signed McColl Hardman. And, you know, McColl Hardman is a very impactful player. With the Chiefs. He's kind of known as like the jet sweep guy.
He's like a. He's like a we have Tyreek Hill at home kind of guy. Where you know you could throw him a ball and he'll do a couple jukes and then It'll be behind the line of scrimmage. You gain eight yards. You know, so he can create his own yardage.
He's very good.
So if McCole Hardman goes to the Jets. And you've got Alan Lazard there, and you've got. you know, Garrett Wilson there. And then you're going to get Randall Cobb, Odell Beckham. I mean Who's Rogers going to end up throwing to, assuming he goes there?
But we had thought, okay. The Jets signing McCole Hardman. Is going to mean Elijah Moore is in a Packers Jets deal. And then like 10 minutes after we found out the Hardman news. We found out that the Jets were now trading Elijah Moore to the Browns.
So Elijah Moore And pick 74. Their third round pick go to Cleveland. And in return, The Jets get pick forty two.
So now I believe the Jets have 42 and 43. And that could be the package that the Jets use to get. Aaron Rodgers. There's been a lot of talk about leverage. I think it's a word that we're going to be tired of.
Kind of like how Brewers fans hate hearing the word trapezius. But there's going to be a lot of talk about leverage. And um I still like, I'm at the point where the whole NFL is mad at the Packers. They want this trade to go through. It's not just NFL media that happens to be Jets fans.
It's not just Jets fans putting out trade hypotheses out there that Packers' Twitter eats up and attacks. It's not. Just like people in the media, like Florio, you know, big Vikings fan trying to get this going. The NFL The NFL probably wants it to happen so they can like for sure lock in a schedule at some point. I honestly.
To me, I like I don't I'm not gonna predict the Packers to win a Super Bowl this year. And if they do, I don't know that's going to be because of their twenty twenty three picks. And I know like Okay, we have Jordan Love on a rookie contract. But then you're going to have all these guys on a rookie contract. I just to me, to me, to me, to me, do you guys know that I say to me sometimes?
And I also say again a lot. I've noticed I say to me. And again. Um really Trying to catch my Quirks before other people notice them. They call that the Aaron Rodgers.
Oh, I shouldn't say that. I shouldn't say that. But again To me. I think there'd be nothing. That would satisfy me more.
than to have the whole league. Pissed that the Packers aren't making this deal. Until they absolutely need to. The roster bonus stuff, none of that kicks into like September. I don't know how Rogers let that one slip through.
I thought he was so calculated. But there's nothing in this contract that's going to trigger, there's no rush for the Packers until week one. They don't have to do it. The only have to is: well, do you want picks in 2023 or not? That's the only have to.
But that's not a have to. you know I don't, they, I just, I can't believe how everybody is so short-sighted that. Like NFL people think this trade needs to get done. We've talked about this, so I don't need to go into more details again. But what I'm telling you, I guess, what's new information is that.
I more than anything. Want the Packers to just stretch this out. I want the Packers to piss everyone off. I want everyone to be mad at the Packers. I want the schedule to be delayed.
It's just like, screw you. Everybody think they knows what's going on in this house. Everybody thinks they know what it's like to be a Packer fan. Everybody thinks that they know what's best for us. What's best for us is We've got a guy that one team wants and they don't have an alternative.
So until you give us an offer that blows us away. Give us a better one. I mean, this is a Jets franchise. Who has tried Tim Tebow? Their best quarterback in the last 20 years.
Is probably most well known for the butt fumble and also being a horrific NFL broadcaster. In Mark Sanchez. They are bad. They need a quarterback. And they flew out there, and now they're signing his buddies.
And uh I don't know. It did seem a little bit like the Jets were like, okay. Here's our move now. Let's go, Packers. Goody, take your sweet, precious time.
Is what I say. I'm all on board. Take your time. time train. Because I think we'll get a better deal in the long run.
I think the Packers will end up getting a better deal. in the summer than they would right now. The negotiation with yourself, then, is well, you're costing yourself this year's picks.
So, if you're okay with that, I am. I want the best overall deal, and I think you're gonna get that. Later, because I think the Jets will be. More desperate. If you're desperate for a good deal, guys, you come to the place.

Bucks beat up on the Spurs pretty handily, the final in this one, 130-94. Hello again, I'm Bart Winkler. 130 to 94. Spread on this one was 18. And the Bucs won by thirty-six.
They doubled up the spread. The spread was 18. And they doubled up. The spread. If you're somebody, this is what I need for Twitter.
You know, all the bells and whistles that. Elon's got now. This is what I need. I guess I will pay. The eight dollars for your verification or Twitter blue.
If one of the features is. I need to know when people bitch about a sporting event. I need to know if they're Under the age of 24 or not. And or If they have money on the game. That's what I need to know.
When I am Reading people's comments on Twitter Online, but specifically Twitter. I was putting the kid to bed tonight and checked the phone every now and then, and people were really upset about what was happening with this Bucs game. And I understand that the game was close for a good. you know 22 minutes But How how how are we on one pendulum where we're sitting here talking about We're the best team in the league. No one can beat us.
Who's gonna beat us if i In a seven-game series, four times. And then the very next game we play, Where we're beating the Spurs by like three. In the late second quarter, we're panicking and freaking out. Maybe you think, oh, the Bucs, you know, they were, they were lax a days ago, they were apathetic, they didn't try, they didn't care. But they're a good team, so you know they can turn it on like this.
And that's exactly what they did. And they turned it on. And they dominated the Spurs.
Now, the Spurs lineup tonight. Not uh Not the best lineup. I joked online that it was essentially. A WB lineup, the WB. That network from 96 to 05.
Spurs Heat. Nah, that's a real team. Let me think of the name of the show. The Spur, just because, like, or the Alamo, starring Zach Collins. Starring.
Blake Wesley. Malachi Branham. and introducing Sandro Mamukeshavili as Big Pete. Or something like that.
So yeah, the Bucks should have easily. handled. The Spurs tonight, and they did. Your comments will take them on YouTube. Daniel has just thrown 499 our way.
That'll go to the Tim Shea fund because he likes my brewer's hat. This is a brewer's hat, if you're on YouTube, that I bought in spring training. I poured over it. I'm pretty fond of it. little neon colors.
And it also the reason I like this hat is because then people will come up to me and say, Did you go to spring training? And I'll be like, how do you know your hat? As a matter of fact, I did.
So it's like a way to brag. without really bragging. And is it even a brag?
So I went to spring training. Who cares? Is this the Brooke Lopez custom-made hat? It is not, but that got people. In line early.
Our man on the street reporter, Tim Shea, was down there early. And he saw that people were in line. He said there were like four people in line at 3:30. How about that? Just for that hat.
The TV broadcast showed you a lot of people wearing the hat. Maybe you caught the guy who... Came to the game in a hat. Then got the new hat. And then wore two hats.
So that was a nice look for him. Looked better on some than it is on others, but. It is a very impressive hat. I think those are the kind of giveaways I like rather than uh pretending that the Real floor is broken and playing on a blue floor all season. They need to.
They need uh They need to figure that out. Chad says it was a meaningless game in late March against a shit team. Probably going to be okay, Bucks fans. Bucks and six. I don't, okay.
I always say I don't want to tell people how to fan, but I absolutely do. I absolutely do. The whole Bucs run, championship run, when I put out the chairs and all that stuff, that was me telling you how to fan. I specifically remember myself saying. I am better at watching the NBA playoffs than you.
And my knowledge was. I was live and die with the Warriors for a bunch of years. I don't know if you guys know, this is my brother who works there. And So I was live and die with them, and I got to realize the ebbs and flows of these seven-game series. And even when you're down to nothing, it is not the end of the world.
It might seem like it, but it's totally not.
So I was telling you how to fan. but I was telling you how to fan in a good way. I was saying. Guys, it's not over yet. Let's you rah rah.
So sometimes when I tell you how to fan, It's in like a positive way.
Sometimes I tell you how to fan and be a fan. And it's in a negative way. But I mean, I gotta be honest. I mean, like, Chad's right here. If the Bucs would have lost tonight.
What changes? Anything? In fact, I almost would have preferred I saw this tweet. From Shafty Bro. And he was in jest, but Pop is a nice guy showing Bud a playoff solve he found attacking the post-ups like this.
Pop, his team's going nowhere. Pop and butter, buddies. Bud should just walk over to Pop and say Hey, can you? These are the things that we're going to do. These are the things I'm worried about seeing.
Against the Celtics or the Sixers. Can you focus your guys? on trying to exploit Uh post-ups. Could you do that? I mean, we're better than you, so we will beat you, but.
Could you help us along the way? Like, I'm one of your disciples. This makes you look better. The more that we do. I don't see anything wrong with that.
Give us something to work on. You're Greg Popovich. You're 75 years old. You're coaching through a rebuild. Why?
Nobody knows. Greg Popovich could have retired each of the last eight years, and everyone would have been like, all right. But he keeps coaching. I was like, Greg, you don't need to be doing this.
Now, if he wants to coach Webb and Yana so bad, probably said that wrong.
So I call him Victor. I've heard it both ways. But if he wants to coach him so bad, then maybe I guess you write it out, but. He didn't know that a few years ago. Spurs have been bad for multiple years now.
But maybe this is where he's doing the most coaching. Maybe that's what he loves. Maybe he's really coaching some of these young guys. And now he gets the coach Sandru Mamas Kalasvili. Close on that one too.
But Mamu, 27 minutes off the bench. He's been starting a bunch. Zach Collins was back, but Mamu tonight, 12 points. A lot of that coming late. Seven boards, couple blocks, couple of steel assists rather.
With Mamu. This is the thing with being the Bucks. They're so good. They're so deep. They go so, so deep.
That you don't have like room on your roster for some of these young guys. To like develop, right? You can't keep them because you're not going to use them.
So you're better suited having a break glass in case you need a. Doran Dragic, or we should get a Dray Crowder. Or how about the Joe Ingalls move? I mean, that looks better. with every game that he's out there.
Unless he goes on Miritich on us, which I don't expect. Four of six tonight from three 14 points. Bucks real quick, 31 from Giannis, only played 24 minutes. That's all I need to play 31 and 14. Middleton was playing a hefty amount, even Towards the end there, the most minutes, 29.
19 points. Who else was in double digits? Brooke had eleven. Portis at 19, including a couple big threes and a couple nice possessions. And then as I mentioned.
Joe Ingalls.
So, yeah, with this game. Me telling you how to fan. If it's a Wednesday. In March against the Spurs who suck And they're people weren't even mad. This is why I think people had money on the game.
People weren't even mad that They were just mad we weren't up enough points. It's okay. It's okay. You guys can chime in again on YouTube, StreamYard, the Carls Place voicemail line. I've got some voicemails.
I'll most likely get into those on tomorrow's show. 402-915-BART. 402-915-BART. Some on the Brewers. If anybody wants to talk about them, some on the uh Packers.
I know that the Jets made that big trade today, and the Packers will not be getting Elijah Moore, but. Whatever. I still think the Packers are pretty much in control of this thing. And if you didn't hear me earlier, I am someone who wants the Packers to drag this out. as long as humanly possible.
I want that because everybody else is getting so mad about it. that uh the Packers are like holding things up.
So I want it. to drag out. Uh let's see. Oh, and the other thing. Is we got to stop.
51st dates in this thing. You know, the movie with... Drew Barrymore, Adam Sandler, she wakes up every day, doesn't remember why she's in love with him and falls in love with him every day. We got to remember when we wake up, we have the best player in the world. We have the best team in the league.
Okay. When they're not up that big against the Spurs, I mean, the Bucks are so good, we're looking for things to complain about. The Bucks are so good. Twitter fans melting down. And I'm not using that phrase lightly.
A bunch of people were freaking out. The bucks were only up. A handful of points. And then they went on a big run and then they had a monster third. And they sealed this game out like it was always going to be 130 to 94.
So the only thing I would have sweat. At all, is if I had the Bucks minus 18 and it didn't look like they were going to get that in the first half, but even still. I mean, do we not like? Look at the rosters. Spurs at nobody tonight.
withal do. And the Bucs are super deep. They're playing this game without. Uh who's out still? Jake Rowder.
No Gorin yet. Thanassus still not playing, but is back. You got six minutes of Marjan time. Lindell Wiggington scored. This team is super, super deep.
Like what's the worst lineup they could have put out there tonight? The worst lineup they could have put out there tonight is. Wiggington, Bochamp. Pat, Wes and Conneton or Pat Wesson Javon? That's your garbage time lineup?
A lot of those guys are going to play heavy minutes in the playoffs.
So again, just to reiterate. Let's not worry. Hey, hey, let's not worry after the Bucs won by 36. Jonathan. On YouTube says, I love the Bucs, and my whole life, older people told me, fuck the Bucs.
Yeah, well now fuck you. I like that. Jacobs says Giannis is the best player in the world. without even really trying. He really is incredible.
The MVP discussion that I've been ranting and raving about, guys. Looks like it's tilting the weight to Joelle and Bede. Which I'm fine with. Even though it should be Giannis. It should be Giannis.
Bucs fans are not going to win that battle. It's just not happening. The NBA media wanted to give it to Jokic. And I think we've done our job bullying them out. Of making him the first three in a row, three-time consecutive MVP winner.
Since Larry Bird.
Okay, we've done our job. We did what we needed to do. And so now the media is like, okay, well, how about Embiid? And that's exactly what they've always done. He's deserving.
He is an MVP. He didn't play much tonight. He didn't come in in the second half tonight. Sixers played the Bulls, and people started to worry. Where is Embiid?
Where's Embiid? And then the Sixers PR finally came out and said. Oh, he's resting because the game's out of hand. Sixers dominated the Bulls tonight.
So, again, I talk about this game not mattering between the Bucks and Spurs. I understand that, okay, we still want the one seed. I think this is up to date. Bucks two and a half up on Boston, three and a half up on the Sixers, and you don't want to lose and then get into a trap, and you don't want to lose these games because you got a West Coast trip coming up. I understand that.
I just. I just would think. That we as Bucs fans have seen this team play enough and are at the point where we know. Where we know that Panicking in the Late second quarter. Is just a waste of energy.
And a waste of time. If it's the fourth quarter, the Bucks only have two against the Spurs team.
Okay, then start going to Twitter and and you know Find Misery Loves Company, but At this point, We got to remember they're a lot better of a team. Than I guess we think they are. They've got 10 games left. 10 games left, including. A back-to-back coming up this weekend at Utah.
At Denver. That Denver games on NBA TV Saturday night if you're out of market. Monday at Detroit. And Wednesday at Indiana. Thursday they then have the Celtics.
On TNT. And then the Sixers.
So that weekend should be fun. Washington, Chicago, Memphis, Toronto. There are just four home games left. on the schedule. But the Bucs now a four-game road trip.
The game's coming up Friday at Utah and then Saturday. at Denver. More from you guys. And feel free to chime in. I mean, I'm happy to.
Talk here to the wall, literally. Cowboy Curtis says, should have gotten the cream and navy blue with hummingbirds and palms hat with the spring training patch. On the side, I'm trying to think of that one. I did want a Barrelman hat. But I went I went with the 90s neon type look brewer's hat.
At spring training. I probably, no lie, when I went down to Phoenix, We were there for about six innings. We didn't stay the whole game. That's my kid. I mean, I didn't need to know who won, really.
I would say we sat in our seat for one inning. I got a drink for another inning. We toured the outfield for two innings. Took my kid to the bathroom for one inning. and look for a hat for another inning.
So paid those paid those premium rates. To uh to walk around. The RFIL. Webinanis, did I say? Webinama, Webinanis.
Little slip of the tongue. Hot take Mamu is going to be Christian Wood 2.0. That's from Garrett. I was thinking about this tonight. Christian Wood.
When he went to Houston. was dominating. and it was embarrassing. And then he's with Dallas now, right? And doesn't start as much.
Maybe it doesn't play as many minutes as I thought. I think Mamu's got a nice like. Nine, 10-year career in the NBA. And you might get one like decent size contract. And that's great.
It's just that right now he's so young the Bucs can't afford. to keep those guys on their team or they choose not to. Because they'd rather have the veterans for whatever reason. But you lose guys like that along the way. Who who did they have drafted?
Let's look this up a little bit. Who did they have drafted? Are they allowed to stick? throughout this Giannis era. Really nobody.
After they drafted Giannis. They drafted uh Well Geez, that's sad. Jabari Parker. You know, Jabari Parker, we forget about him, don't we? Yeah.
Kind of a footnote in history at this point. But he was a big part of it, man. He was a big part of it. Rashad Vaughan. I still think that Rashad Vaughn.
If they had Rashad Vaughan the year instead of Miritich. He would at least made some threes for you. Thon Maker, I loved the swing in the miss. Or I love the swing. I thought when you, my take after they drafted Thon was: if you're going to Draft a guy and build around Giannis, which is such a.
you know, high risk, high ceiling kind of thing. And if that's what you're going to do. Do it again. You know, and Thon didn't work.
Okay, they never. I mean, it's not like they didn't give him a chance. DJ. You know, he's no good, Dante. He's playing well with uh He's playing well with the Warriors now.
But I don't think that that was gonna work. Uh Don't don't let the fact that the Bucs drafted Kevin Porter Jr. fool you. He was traded right away. Jordan Wara.
Marjan. They just I mean they they haven't That's not how they do it. They do it through free agency. And they do it through the uh The trades. Which is fine.
It just it would be nice if At some point, like the Warriors. And I know they had a really bad year, but that was the year they took Wiseman. They still drafted Poole. They still found another guy that they could give a max. contract to And the Bucs never were able to do that.
Manny says, Hey, Bort. The success of the World Baseball Classic is a direct result of the success. of the FIFA World Cup. Mm-mm, but I do think that I think where the success for these competitions is growing. Is it lets us see our guys in different atmospheres?
It's basically replacing all-star games. is what it is. And so, maybe the next time the FIBA World Cup rolls around, if there's NBA guys in it or if there's good ones. You know, I know the Olympics always draw eyes, and we got into that, right, with Middleton and Drew. I think It that that becomes like the replacement for an all-star game.
We're still trying to scratch our heads. Why isn't the All-Star game? Why don't these guys care in the All-Star game? What are they supposed to care for? Like If you're supposed to care what's across your chest.
They care for Bucks or Milwaukee. They care for USA or Greece. They're not going to care for East Or Team KD. Why would they care for that? Um Let's see.
Or final. Did Myers Letters play? Our final lineup, though, the worst possible lineup that we could have is Wiggington Thanassus. Beauchamp, Wes and Leonard. I still bet in that Spurs team.
Tonight Let's see. Where is Tim? Tim's out driving. I think he will join us. Hot take Jake's here now.
Hey. Hey, while you make your uh point, whatever your initial point is. I just need to step aside and get a drink.
Okay, so I'm the official host now. Yeah. All right.
So make your point. I don't know what's I'll just hold up you talk.
Alright, so what is up, all of my Wink fans? We love Wink. Wink is the man. Let's talk a little bit about Bucks basketball tonight. Um it was kind of fun to watch.
Granted, this was one of those games where you look at who San Antonio was playing, and it was obviously you could just chalk up the win, put it in ink. But what was really cool to see was the way that they were moving the ball, at least when the Bucs starters were in or when the Bucs significant players were in. And I feel like they only do that in games like tonight, where they're just, you know, you can kind of chalk it up as a win, you're playing against garbage competition. But man, when these guys really go out of their way to have fun and just move that ball, they just look unbeatable.
So I've much negativity tonight other than. I mean, it's unfortunate that Pat Conaton remains unplayable on an NBA team. I don't know how much longer you try to get him going, but his stock has definitely dropped. His stock has dropped. Yeah, I mean, it's at this point, it's strange to say that like.
Who would you rather have in the game? Like, you need a bucket. Do you get 10 rebounds? I'm just box score reading now, but. Yeah, you're doing the the the big unit.
How we looking? But who would you rather have in the game? You need a bucket bart. Do you want Pat Conneton or do you want A.J. Green?
I probably want to. I don't know, AJ Green.
Well, let me look at hold on. Let me look at Pat. Let me look at Pat's game log. And I don't have a lot down in the basement to drink, but what I do have is. Things that I have bought.
I sign up for like free trials to try stuff.
So, you guys will have from three years ago, I bought a 12-pack of Bud Zero. The hell is that? Budweiser zero. I don't even know if they still make it. What is it though?
Like what? It's non-alcoholic bud. Hold on a minute.
Now, I don't drink. But I will have an NA cocktail from time to time. If you're going to have an NA cocktail, why the hell would you make it a Budweiser? Good luck. Oh, well, that makes sense.
But the thing about NAs is there's still a little alcohol in there, Jake. Yeah, it's a minute amount.
Well, if you drink like 40 of them, you'll be. Drunk, yeah. Give me like 32 of those, and yeah, I'll be a little buzzed. Bud Zero, cheers. Shout out to Lakefront Brewery.
If you guys need great NA beers, they make some great. And a the River West Stein is Chef's kiss. I took that down a lot more than I thought I would. Is it is it cold or did you just like have it lying around in a box? It's been lying warm temperature for.
probably two and a half years. Wink, what's going on, man? What are you doing? Oh, shut up. Hey, Daniel gave two dollars.
to the barrel man had fun. People are commenting on my sexy brewer's head. Yeah, I wanted to say, can you give me a close-up on that? What is with the color scheme there? I got spring training.
That's cool. Were they actually wearing those on the field? No, but they were selling them in the store. That'd be cool if they did something like that. You know, I'm not a big fan of like NBA getting nuts with these uniforms, but if baseball teams like did that with hats during spring training, that'd be kind of neat.
What would the Bucs have to do to get you to run shirtless through the streets of Shorewood again? That's from Krieg. I mean Uh sure would See me running around with a shirt off enough. I'm just gonna say, that's kind of changing the. I gotta take this thing with like.
Port Washington or Fox point or somewhere where they like call the cops on me. All right, be truthful. What's it gonna take to see Winkler hang dong? For me to hang dong. For me to expose my Would you do it for another title, guaranteed?
What I'm doing is one two five zero. Let's Would you hang dong for the Buxton? When I expose my penis. Because this would be on YouTube, so you could go check it anytime, take stills. Yeah, this is Box After Dark for sure, baby.
I don't think there's anything sports I would hang dong for. Yeah, I would just do it anyways. Anyways, I do have a point about Aaron Rodgers. I mean, if you're offering.
Okay. Uh I just wanted to say about Aaron Robin. Anything that I would show. Yeah. It was a joke, man.
No, but that's a great question. That is true, though, if you think about it. Like, man, what would it take? Bucks win the title and the Brewers win a World Series. No, it is not worth it.
No? I need a World Cup in there for sure. For who? The USA. Oh, oh, where.
I didn't know if the I g I forgot that that's like a By country and not like a league thing, whatever. Poops gives $4.99 for the. Mobile gear for the playoffs. Every, you know, you're giving money. I do have it set up.
You don't need to give me money. Like I'm not I don't charge you. People are always like, go Patreon. I'm not doing that. I have the option for money because if you guys want a tip ever.
What I do with that is I give it to the guys that like. Who needed like Tim? Or I invest in the podcast. Please tell me you don't give Horvad anything. I don't give Horvad anything.
The fact that he gets a weekly segment, like that's way more than enough. You're probably you've been on more than him lately. That's true, but I bring the heat, man. That guy's just like... Just instant, fast forward, fast forward, fast forward every time the Horvette segment comes on.
Uh let's see. I'm looking for Some good comments. Beer Baron says. N. A.
River Weststein is very good. Krieg sticks up for Pat says he does all the little things that help teams win. Oh, yeah. He's a sneaky athlete. He's a coach on the floor.
You know, he's a. He's got great leadership capabilities. How many more white guy stereotypes can I throw out here? Uh test user wants to know if my Bud Zero has captain in it. No, and I've made a big step.
I've decided to stop. Imbibing during the shows. What does that mean? I'm not drinking during these shows anymore. Oh, well good for you, man.
Well, 'cause some nights I don't know if you guys have been able to tell, but You're pretty drunk. I thought that this was a gummy only zone. Yeah. Oh no no. No, the the gummies are helping.
decrease the amount of alcohol.
Well, there you go, gummies uh gummies it is, man. Stick with the happy place hemp. That alcohol is poison. You don't need it. Oh, let's see.
People are talking about. I'm a fake fan because I won't hang dong. I'm going to regret that one. Mm-hmm. Tom likes Barton Horvot.
I mean, I'm a big board fan. It just, you know, I'll leave it at that. Um Can I say something about Aaron Rodgers? More specifically, this is about your take that the Jordan Love pick was a bad pick. Like, are you still hanging on to that thing that, like, Love has to win a Super Bowl.
And if If Rogers doesn't win, it's a bad pick. Because, like, here's what drives me nuts about that. Let's say the Packers traded up into that round and they took Patrick Queen, who everybody wanted, because he was like the alleged guy that fell. Like, oh, he's this can't miss middle. That is, Jake, you're trying to help the team win.
Jordan Love wasn't a win move when you needed a win now. But the draft is in a win-now situation. In very rare cases, you're going to get those significant rookies. But if you're drafting for what you need today, you're already behind.
So Again, I just want to throw this theoretical out there. They take Jordan Love.
Okay. We're yet to see what's going on with that. But let's say they take Patrick Queen. And he ends up sucking like he does because he sucks. He's terrible.
And then they end up cutting him before his rookie deal is over. Is that a worse pick than Jordan Love? They're trying to help the team win, but he sucked.
So he was negative on the field. And the other thing I want to make a point on: everybody needs to shut the hell up about T. Higgins. That's the name I hear. They should have talked to T.
Higgins. They should have talked to Higgins. Nobody saw T. Higgins as a first-rounder at that point. It was a reach where he was picked, at least according to all the alleged experts.
And everybody wants to be a draft expert.
So Everybody needs to shut up with their hindsight glasses on with T. Higgins. It drives me crazy. Hat tip to test user for the $5 weekend shows. Captain Fund.
Atta boy Testy. Um Yeah, weekend shows. I'll probably do another show Sunday. This is a tough weekend because the Bucs play the jazz. Saturday, I thought about doing it after Nuggets.
But I am doing a fantasy draft. On Saturday, and I will be drinking.
Well, not Bud. Bud's disgusting.
Okay. Get that River West thine. Or if you go to Woodman's, they've got a tremendous NA selection. All right, I need to bring this up. This is very unprofessional, but I do a podcast in my basement.
Basement boys for life, my man.
So I need to bring this up. I am struggling. To figure out what the Steve Zabin quick drip video is about. Anybody on Twitter see this video? I haven't seen it.
I don't know the context.
Okay. Zabe Went to a quick trip. and took a video. And I just can't, I've watched it a hundred times.
So it's obviously an ad. That's fine. But I just don't like Is this Is this how creative he is? And I don't. I shouldn't even bring this up.
It doesn't bother me. That's Steve Zavins on the radio and I'm not. Until I bothers me. Until I see shit like this.
So let me. I'll show it on YouTube and I'll play it with audio. with the microphone. But he's he's walking into a quick trip. And I just don't understand.
Like, is this a joke? Is it a commercial? What's happening? Steve Zaber. What am I doing at Quick Trip at 8.30 at night on a Sunday?
I'm going grocery shopping. Yeah, that's good. Don't need any of that, but I'm glad they've got it. It is not summer, but they have summer shampoo. That's good.
So good. What was that? Am I over jealousing on this? No, I mean, jealous. This guy acts like he's never been to a quick trip before, like, he doesn't live here or something.
All I know is he looks like a guy who has kids that are in youth sports that, like, you know, goes home and is abusive towards his wife. That's just what he looks like to me. And then when I listen to him talk, I'm like, there's an iPhone. Turkey slices. Oh lord, did you guys know they have cheese cards in Wisconsin?
Cheese curds. Gotta get them from Quick Trip. No, you gotta get them from Cousins. How we looking, get the Radio Joe cheese curds. I mean, I guess it's a commercial, but.
It's not creative. At least, no, that's like barely. But I just played it on my podcast. See, sometimes I think bad advertising is better than good advertising. That's true.
If you think about like some of the most popular TV commercials, it's usually the ones that make no sense, but they just. They just stay in your head, you know? Those other quick trick commercials. And I said, Ashley, and I said, My mom knows I'm fucking this chick. Is that a Tony in Texas reference or something?
No, some dumb Quick Trip commercial. I got it out for Quick Trip too. What's on with Quick Trip? Yeah. I hate quick trip culture.
Everybody knows what quick trip is. It's incredible. But why do we have to go there and be like why everybody that goes to quick, everybody that goes to Quick Trip, they go there and they're like, Oh my god, they got coffee and chicken. No, see, I wish Paul Imig was on the show right now because I listened to his take about. Um Your your whole thing about the Big Bang theory.
This kind of sounds to me like there's too many people that like quick trips, and now you're kind of turning on it. I love Quick Trip. Yeah, but it I invented the quick triple It's like when you're in Does anybody know what the quick triple is? It's when you get hot bar for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I've done it same quick trip.
I hope never sober. Yeah. There was one by the radio station I worked at in Fond du Lac. Man, that's dedication. I'll give you that much.
Yeah, like people getting wedding photos at a quick trip. Yeah, that's that's kind of cool. What's nothing like about that? You gotta go to Quick Trip. What?
It's like a store and you get gas there and they've got good hot food? Just my, I got good advice. It was, you know, don't yuck someone else's yum. If they want to take photos in front of a quick trip, if it's making them happy, why the hell not? Yeah, but that's my whole brand kinda.
That is true. That is the staple of the Wink podcast. Hey, you guys, see my new hat? I guarantee you, anybody on the stream or anybody listening, no one spent more money at Quick Drip than I have. There you go, see?
But I don't make it my identity. Do people make quick trip their identity? Is that a thing? Absolutely. I mean, I know they like it.
Like, uh. Maybe it's because, like, Charlie Barron's, he got really big. You know, he's everybody's favorite. He does the quick trip thing. I like Charlie though.
Oh my god. All right.
Oh, Charlie Barrons. Yeah. I like Charlie too. Seems like a good dude. Seems like it hasn't gone to his head.
All right, I think that's all I got on Quick Trip. All right.
I just, I just, I just, I really like Quick Trip, and it bothers me that.
Well I tell you to myself. I just keep it to myself. I don't. I don't like. Oh.
What's my punch card reward? No, I refuse to use their reward card too. I refuse. Yeah. Any place that always asks you for the reward?
Screw you. All right.
You have your rewards card. Then I feel like I have to use it and I'm digging around. Oh, so what?
So what?
So I can get a, so I can get 10 cents off of Slurpee next time I'm in here for the 30th time? This is like an anti or the reverse Karen rant right here. Like. Yeah. But you know what?
This show tonight's show is actually brought to you by BP. Damn, that's savage. You know what this reminds me of, Bart? It's like when you're in high school and there's like this little band that you're into, and you're trying to get everybody into that band. And then everybody starts liking him and you're like Well, what the hell?
Th these guys they sold out. They went mainstream. These guys suck. Or just like I don't know. You got to let that one go, buddy.
Quick trips, it's cool and it's. I agree. Yeah. So you All right.
Okay. Enough about Quick Trip.
Okay, fine. Can you give Bud Zera a quick trip? Possibly. They have alcoholic quick trip, right? Yeah.
All right, Jake, good to talk to you. As always, man. Good job. I'm going to bring in Tim. Oh, I love you, Tim.
Hello. Everybody. I'm just doing my quick trip bit. Oh, quick trip again. Yeah.
Tim, where are you going? Cameron. I'm in Glendale.
Okay. Where's Cameron? Cameron, where are you at? I'm in New Berlin. Oh, NB.
Yep. All right.
The white folks well represented tonight. Yeah, yeah. I got more coming too.
Okay. All right, Jake. All right, I'm leaving. Um, are we still talking bucks or no? That happened.
I was listening on the whole trip. Quick? Oh, yeah, I was listening on the way home from the game tonight, and then next thing you know, it's just about a quick trip for 10 minutes. I'm like, oh, maybe I'll maybe I'll jump on in. But if it's, yeah, uh, God, why what are all those other radio stations not even talking about sports?
Hey, it's my Bucks post-game show. Here's a video that they did, and I hate Quick Trip, even though I love it. Yes, talking bucks. You were there, Cameron. Did you get a hat?
Uh no, I did not get a ha I had a ticket uh miss misfortune, but I still got in. Um I have one observation. And I found it kind of funny. It was... I haven't heard this noise maybe since the 25 or 27-point comeback against the Raptors like eight, nine years ago.
But when that one Spurs player missed both those free throws, it was the loudest I've ever heard. Um The Fiserve Ever for free wi for free wings. And well, the only problem I have with that is how long it took them to do it. Yeah. Double free throw miss in the fourth quarter.
It doesn't matter. It's just like. Oh, you get like. You get a free tornado at Quick trip.
Some people are gonna go crazy for you. I don't think it counted because of the fact that the first free throw was a technical and then the second one was a part of the actual foul itself. Because about two minutes later, they started doing the whole wing thing again.
So I'm not sure if it actually counted, but. I just found it funny that there was a similar crowd noise to the b to the Rest in Peace Bradley Center. uh for the raptors.
So Yeah, otherwise, it was a fun game to watch. I mean, it was just close for the first quarter and a half, and then all of a sudden the Bucs just started hitting their shots. Which game are you talking about Raptors? Game three? Uh no, I think it was game six.
Game six, and it was it was at the Bradley Center. We I think came back from like a twenty-seven-point lead and then we blew it within the final two minutes. I think that might have been Jabari's first playoff run with us, like a healthy playoff run. Yeah. If I'm not mistaken.
And that might have been almost two, maybe. I don't know. It's been a while. Rest in peace. Rest in peace.
What's your favorite Bradley Center moment? Probably when uh It's probably Milwaukee Wave one, honestly. I've never been to a wave game, never been. Yeah. Or when my brother was the PR guy.
for the Milwaukee Iron and they didn't pay them. And I got to go all around the building. Was that Post Mustangs? Yeah. Okay, okay.
Yeah. Okay. All right, Cam, good stuff.
Sorry, you need to get a hat. No, it's fine. It's okay. I think I missed it by literally like a minute. That was the shitty part.
I saw the guy putting the table away and dipping out.
So my feelings were hurt, but it's fine. It is what it is. I'll look those up on eBay. Yeah, probably get one for like $45. Probably more.
All right, dude. All right.
One more thing. Shout out, my boy, Mark Rose. He listens every single day, and he's a huge. Mark Rose. Huge fan.
All right.
See you guys. Bye. Guy, I love Mark Rose. I'm gonna put his name up here. Heck yeah, do it.
That's awesome. We love Mark Rose. Hell yeah. Mark with a K. There you go.
Perfect. All right.
Bye. Oh, yeah. If it was a C, I wouldn't shout him out. Are you kidding me? Yeah, I get it.
Totally understandable. I'm on board. All right, I got Austin here. Thanks. See you, Cameron.
Austin, look at you guys all rocking your jerseys tonight. Yeah, I went to the game. Went to the game. Did you get a hat? No, I didn't get a fucking hat.
Oh, I need to swear words. I'm sorry, I won't swear. What's up with you guys not getting hats? Uh I think we got in there late. I don't know.
Uh hey, so a couple couple things. Uh First of all, Tim Team Iron Jack. how how we look at Team what? Iron Jack? Is that Iron Jack?
Iron Jack? Yeah. Yes, it is Iron Jack.
Alright, that uh that Badger's player, right? Yeah, it's feeling ale. For Braylon Allen. Brilliant Ellen, that's right. Hey, uh, okay.
So I am I heard some uh Pat Conaton talk. I used to. like in that finals i don't remember if it was game four or five I don't know, you put up like 14 points. My body's uh Big content hater, and I was like, Yeah, but remember that in the finals run. I can't really, I can't back this guy anymore, man.
I'm so sick and tired of like. A defensive play going.
So. I was sitting behind like uh behind the backboard in the hundreds. And then you just watch them sprint down. To sit in the corner three. And he's a waste of space at this point.
And then, um, When like when it was garbage time they were up by like 28 points He was out there with Javon Carter. Marshawn. And maybe a couple, I don't remember the other two. Like trying to prove that he can make shots again. I don't know what happened with him, but that guy's lost his step.
He's like, he's still good defensively. Can you believe? I mean, we talk about this yet for the month of. Marge. From three, he's shooting 46%.
Oh, wait, that's Giannis. For the month of March, Pat Conaton's shooting. 27% from three. He's looking terrible, man.
Well, that's that's where it worries me. You know, there was a comment here. He does the little things that help win games. And there's a lot of guys that do that that do not get.
Well, but if you I'm saying there are guys that do that, and if you're going to look at the box score and just say, oh, that guy sucks, that guy will. But if but I I do where it comes up with me. Is there's some athletic plays that Pat makes that Other guys can't. I do think he has a good knack for getting. Rebounds.
but he's gotta make his three. And it's not just a pad thing. This is. This is going to be true for Joe, and it's going to be true for Grayson, and a little bit. Even Javon and maybe a little bit Jay.
Is I don't know that in the playoffs and during this run. I don't know that the bug, like, the bug, remember when Eric Bledsoe would shoot? 15 threes and make two of them. And if he made the first one, he was going to shoot until he made one. And then once he made one, you thought he'd be hot and then just shot until he missed another 13.
Like, we, if you're going to go one for five, stop shooting. If you're going to go one for six from three, stop shooting. They are deep enough, and they have enough guys that can shoot. They have enough guys that have come in here solely to shoot the three. That if you're a track, there should be no time in the playoffs where any one of those guys, non-Middleton, or Drew or Brooke.
Or I'll say Bobby. Maybe not even Bobby. Like, there's not a lot of guys who should be afforded the opportunity in the playoffs to find their shot. If you're not hitting me, stop shooting. And I'm wearing a Middleton jersey right now, and I'm saying that if Middleton goes one for six.
He needs to cool it until Until halftime. Then he can take a couple more threes, and if you're missing them, dude, you're missing them, but you can't. I I don't know, like They To me, watching them did. It just ain't so hot at freezing, and you can't just keep. letting them go with that.
Some comments. Jake says Austin's room looks a little hazy. Dave says Quick Trip is my safe space. I used to work at Quick Trip. Quick Trip fucking sucks.
Yeah. Yeah. Well, anyone that works at a place thinks that place sucks. That is uh Alcoholic beer, by the way. Like the brewers, they suck.
Bud Zero. Yeah, the brewers suck too, Tim. Just like Quick Trip. Unless they're ever going to sponsor you, then. God bless Quaktrip.
If there's someone on there when it says, Uh what's it say like team members since If it's in like the 2020s, I'm like. Screw you. I want the people that have been there before Quick Trip came Quick Trip. Serving me like 1999. Yeah.
I just remember there was a chick in the prospect trip that ate me. Honest to God, use your rewards card so you can get the discount on gas. Just do it. I don't get my gas there. Oh, okay.
Well, it's like part of the thing where, like, you were talking about them pressuring you. I'm a pick and save Metro man. I go to BP. I got 50 cents off last week. They literally get docked points like on shit if they don't ask you if you have a rewards card.
So they just have to do that. People that are working at a cash register should not be on a point system. I know well okay well let's okay Sports. But yeah, they should not be at a point system they're making for stuff and stuff. And stuff, okay, and stuff, and stuff.
Tim, we are a sports and stuff show, correct? Yeah. Okay, here's my other thing about the box game.
So last two times I went. Uh The opponent has missed two free throws in a row. In the fourth quarter. And that place. It's so fucking loud.
during that. And like, I try to get my section on now, right? Boo, boo. And like the place erupts. It's good, I think Cameron said that.
Yeah. Yeah, Cam said that just before, but I'd like it's nothing. Until they implemented that wing thing, it has never been that loud for something before. Let me ask you one more thing about Quick Trip and then I'll get to Tony. Like, how much would someone Have to steal.
Noticeably before it was like, like, if I just went in and you're working at Crick Trip and you see him standing in a candy bar. Are you like... Are you gonna stop me? Or Does it need to be like a couple items? Are Quick Trippians so like for the brand?
That they will stop you with any item.
Okay, okay, do you want a story? I got a story. Yeah. What are they gonna do? What are they gonna do?
All right.
I used to have this guy that would come in, right? He'd come in, I worked third shift, he'd come in and Yeah, right around 10.15, 10.30.
So our shift starts at 10. It's our talking. He's throwing Tony. What do you got? I threw Tony on.
You see how quickly he sat up straight? Hey, so. You can eat it. I'll put you on the meat and snap. Oh, crap.
What did I do? Oh no. Why is it too much, Tony? Austin's story.
Okay. Austin, you got to speed the story up, bro.
Okay, so well they have people come in. Right around shift change, and they would schmooze around because they knew there were only three people working.
So they'd talk to somebody that was changing the coffee over, they'd talk to the cashier, and there'd be one person in the kitchen, so no one could watch any cameras or anything.
So, they would just take boxes of candy and meat and whatever that they could and just get out of there. And it took them like, eight months to finally catch them. But no, it's the regulars that steal from you. It's not randoms. It's crazy, man.
Hey, Austin, I worked at a Circle K when I was in college. The gas station Circle K. That I'm in Wisconsin. Oh, you're from Wisconsin too. Yeah, yeah.
Hey, Bart, this is back before a pre-pump, so that you would go there and just. Start pumping before they would pay. And some guy went away with like $50 worth of gas, and I had my broom off, and I was like sweeping the floors. And I'm mopping the floors. I chased after that.
I don't know why I did. I chased after that guy, threw my broom at the truck, broke the guy's window, the guy drove off, but. You know, I had pride in my job like you, Austin. For like seven bucks an hour. Yeah.
Yes. Yeah. Yeah. for sure i was worried no i was actually worried they'd take that money out of my paycheck Yeah, okay, that's the only reason I could Thank you. Doing it because it's not your 50 bucks.
No. But I was worried about that.
So anyway. All right, Austin. Good to see you. Cheers. Get a haircut, you damn hippie.
Don't eat no way. I'm growing it back in, baby. I'm just kidding, man. Later, guys. See you, bud.
I'd have his hair if I could. He's got nice. Long wavy hair. Yeah, he's a good looking kid, that Austin. Same.
What's up with you?
Well I had a basketball practice and it went very well. And now I'm here talking to you, Jokers. That doesn't look like your house tone that I've seen. It's my house, it's my place.
Okay, okay, okay. Yeah. Yeah. So What are we talking about? Are we talking about the Packers at all?
Let's stop. Tim, just dump him now.
Well, I want to ask you, Tim, do you have any interest in Cam Newton as a backup? They pay the Bucs on tonight. No, I'm serious. Cam Newton worked out at Auburn, and the Packers were there. No, four.
Well, it was an Auburn workout. It wasn't a Cam Newton workout. He just Those are your words. Wow. Yeah.
I saw an article saying that Teddy Bridgewater would be a good fit here. I'll take him. That would be. They do need to do something, though, don't they? They got to bring a backup.
Yeah, you're not. I'm sorry, Joe keeps asking two twos for Rogers. I'm firmly in the. Don't trade him until August camp. I want the Packers to be everyone's enemy.
And I don't care about I gotta get rid of this quick trip shit. I don't want people to think they're actually giving me. And I maintain that that take that you just had is just for ratings for the pod. What? What you just said, you want Rogers around.
You have a love-hate relationship with him, and you know what draws it? No, no, he's not going to show up, though. We could still talk about 'em. I I don't have, I don't get ratings. You got the number one pod in the state, don't you?
Why don't you? I can't do Ooh, I'm getting music. What the hell is this? What are you doing? I don't know, I just realized you can play music on here.
Wow. We're going to commercial break. Yeah. Oh shit, this is great. Coming on a quick trip.
If it's a grocery store, get down there 8:30 on a Sunday. Check around. Hey, I don't need that, but if I did, I know it's here. Plus, it's not summer, but they've got summer city. Like a kid in a candy store.
I come here and play around. Wisconsin's my playground. I don't care about you people. I live in DC. But when I'm here, The sponsors give me money and go to quick here.
Never spend a dollar of my own money here. but I use gift cards. Pretty. Yeah, it's Location here you That's a professional there, Tim. I mean, maybe now we can start doing sports updates.
There you go. You know, JJ Watts should be a spokesperson for a quick trip. Oh, that is just a matter of time. Exactly. Where is he living now, Pewaukee or?
Heartland Hey, when I was growing up In Pewaukee, nothing I like to do before practice. With Derek, what's up? And DJ, hey, and our parents, hi, we go to Quick Trip. Fill up that car, get those hot meals. Hey, JJ, just three chicken sandwiches this time.
Aw, dad. I'll sneak one out. Derek? TBJ, we love fruit drips. And all our ways are hot.
There you go. You're a regular Don Draper. It's a madman reference for all the kids. Hey, Tim, my mean green from the University of North Texas are playing your boring Wisconsin Badgers. Aren't your mean green a little more boring?
They are, but I do have. I do have a good friend, Connor Ethijan. Tim, so I am conflicted on this game. Conor Asijan's your friend. He's like half your age.
Probably I know. But I hooked him up. Hey, get a load of this. I hooked him up with some Whitnell tickets when Tyler Hero got his jersey retired.
So Connor Siegen and I are quite friendly now. Wow, you get who knew I had who knew I had friends in slightly above low places? Tony in Texas. Tony, meet you in Vegas. Should we do maybe maybe do a remote?
No, Tim, I can't. I can't go, Tim. I'm going to go to the real final for her. that weekend. One more quick trip commercial and then I'll get to Cone.
All right.
Hey, Tim Shea. I'm a quick trip. I'm just gonna park my car here and what's up. Hey, what do you- Don't don't take everything. I don't need a, take everything.
I don't need my car. Oh, geez. Oh god, that again. Picture. Or I get carjacked.
Tone roller! Count. Hey guys, Bart, are there any naked bikers at that quick trip behind you? Ooh. No, but hold on.
What's that? Yes. Yeah, weekdays, ten to two, yep. As a matter of fact, I will. Uh Probably I'm on my third, I think fourth.
Who knows these days? What now? Dad. What's up, Cone? It's a 34th gallon of gas that I'm pumping.
Yeah. I just wanted to join because I heard Tony calling out the boring Wisconsin Badgers. Tony, yes, they were one win away from making the real tournament. And now, Greg Guard, he's handing out tickets. He's got the boys playing hard.
Three wins in a row, most since I think mid-December.
So they're getting hot at the right time, and if they're going to be in the NIT, they might as well win it.
Well, I think you're blinded by Greg Guard's wardrobe there, Cohn. I mean, this is just a sad team. They're really boring. They've underachieved. And I gotta go with my I thought this through, Tim Shea.
I'm gonna go with my mean green. There goes Timmy. I'm going to go with my Mean Green, coached by Grant McCaflin, Bart Winkler. Grant McCaflin, who's been to my AU games, has said: good work, Tony. Keep it up.
True story. Nobody name drops more D listers than Tony and Texas. Hey, D'Serry. That's what I did on your show. Yeah.
Keep it going. I feel like on my radio show, you name-dropped like people that people knew. Ice Cube. Do you remember when Horvat said he knew Delilah, as in the song, Hey There, Delilah? Yeah, I do n yeah.
That was my my buddy's cousin if uh For the string quarterback. Everything went back to Juliet. It always went back to Joliet. Joel Rhodes led to Joliet. Mm-hmm.
Well, all right, boys, I'm gonna get out of here. All right, bud. Hey, we'll have the after-show later tonight. The Bart Winkler wrap-up show. We call it.
We call it After Dark.
So, anyone that listens to this, come over to After Dark on Twitter Spaces. Twitter Spaces, look for Tony in Texas. Yep, get your plug-in. Let's go. I like it.
All right.
See you guys. See you, Bart. See you, Tony. What's up with you, Cohen? Nothing much.
I just wanted to join in because I heard some NIT talk. But if if we're not going to be serious about it, I can get out of here. Is uh I wonder, hey, what did that Oregon coach say? Oh. So he was basically like calling out the I don't know if he was calling out the students, he was calling out.
Basically the athletic department. Yeah, they only had 3,300 fans at their game. You see the commitment that Wisconsin makes with the cheerleaders, the band. We make a commitment, don't get me wrong, but you can just see how important it is to them. It's important to me.
We should have more people here. I mean, The guys played hard, 3,300 people. That's not good enough. If it's me, Get rid of me. Make the change.
Someone will hire me somewhere. I'll go coach junior college ball. I love you here, college ball. Those guys are dogs. They want to be in the gym all the time.
I love those guys, but 3,300 people for Wisconsin, I'm disappointed. Kind of a cop-out answer by him, I think. The Badgers flew out their band and cheerleaders to the game. Like, that's that's impressive. You got Greg Gard handing out tickets on the dining hall the day of the game.
Yeah, you had over ten thousand fans at their last home game on uh Sunday. When they played. In college basketball, these players don't stay for four years, so I think the coaches kind of become the face of the programs. And for him to say that, I think, is a little bit of a cop-out answer. Like, dude, it is kind of your job to represent the university, represent the program.
pump it up, you know. You're getting paid a couple mil anyway. Might as well do it well. Did an NIT run save Greygard's job? No.
I mean, he was staying no matter what. No, he wasn't. I actually think Luke Fickle saved Greg Bart's job. Oh, 'cause they already done another move. Yeah, I mean, I think you need some stability in your athletic department.
Like, I've got a new men's hockey coach, new football coach. You need someone who knows how the system works, knows how Wisconsin works especially.
So I think it's smart they they're holding on to guard for just the overall safety of their athletic department. You know I'm getting sh yeah, I'm getting tired of Cone. If I can be honest. Yeah, be honest. Open it up.
If peop you know, these people like That are shitting on the NIT, like. These kids just want to compete. Let them play. They don't want their season in. They want to compete.
They got a little something to play for.
So, what if you win? Oh, you're the 69th best team in the league? Hey, we play the tournament. Our season, if you win the NIT, our season ended with five straight wins. We got five more games together.
We got five more nights of travel and store. We got five more nights in a college basketball career where if you play for four years, you get what 80 maybe if you stay healthy. And this tournament is giving them five more nights. And so I'm sorry that the NIT isn't as prestigious as anything, but they were given a chance to keep playing. They kept playing.
So Get your NIT trash takes out of here. You're trashing, not you, but you know what I'm saying. People are trash the NIT. Oh, Marquette fans. Oh, Marquette fans.
Here's the problem with Marquette fans. I'll tell you this right now. And then I got to go because my computer's dying. Marquette fans are going to say if the Badgers Win the NIT. Marquette fans will say.
So, what? You're the 69th best team in the country? And then, if they get to the NIT final and they'll lose, they'll say, You couldn't even win in the NIT. It's a no win.
So fuck them. Yeah, I mean, whatever. Marquette fans. They choked.
Okay. Five or four. This year is that the finals are not played in Madison Square Garden. Conan, you go to Vegas? I was just gonna ask Tim, let's go.
Come out here. We'll try out. Four hours are up. All right, my computer is dying, so I do have to go. All right.
Peace out, boys. Have a good day. Love ya. Yeah, yeah, come see you, bud. Goodbye.
My computer chargers upstairs. Poor planning by me. Terrible. Or well timely timed. Whatever.
