Good morning, everybody. Welcome into the WinklerVerse.
I am Bart Winkler. It is the 1st of August, and a couple of different things that I want to go over on this episode today as we continue on. We got some voicemails. Voicemails are back, baby. Excited to hear some voicemails coming up again. 402915BART. It's the number. It's in use. 4029152278. Got some voicemails for you, thanks to Carl's Place.
Peter Bukowski. I was able to chat with him on the Infinity Sports Network. The whole reason that I try to book, I try to book them for both. I don't assume that everybody listens to every minute of everything I do. If you do, that's great. So I like to make sure you hear the important stuff, the Wisconsin related stuff. If you heard it, you know, skip it. But along with that, I do want to maybe introduce you guys to a segment that we sort of discovered just kind of randomly that I really enjoy.
And I'm going to put it at the end of this episode. If you want to hear it, it's called Guess What They Said, where we play audio, we play cuts, we play sound bites. We do all that all the time.
And I wanted to guess what people said because, you know, with all these years of experience in listening to these sound bites, people kind of just say the same things over and over and over. And it's pretty predictable. So we turn that into a game on the show. We do it Mondays and Fridays at 1220 in the morning.
So it's very late. So if you haven't heard it, I like the segment. I think it's a good segment. So I'll put it at the end here. I got burned by AI.
I thought that was pretty good. So I don't tweet as much. And I think I've been better not drunk tweeting as much also, which is the goal of it.
I don't like Elon Musk at all. And I can't be a part of this website anymore. Now it's where I have the most followers. So if I need to get a message out, I mean, that sucks. I don't know.
I was going to get the blue check a few different times. I just, this, this website's garbage. I can't, I can't pay the guy. I just can't do it. Now, if I want to stream this, you know how you guys, you see, Oh, Bart's live.
I'll jump in. I can do it on YouTube and Facebook, but I'd have to pay to do it on Twitter. I just don't want to do it. I can't give Elon Musk money.
Even if I give him 15 bucks and he gives me 40 bucks back, I can't do it. I cannot do it. So that's where I am on Twitter, but I did find a cool AI thing, which I hate AI, but I found a cool AI thing, where it summarizes all your tweets and roast you.
So here's what it came up for me. Ah, Bart Winkler, ah, Bart Winkler, the midnight mouthpiece of Milwaukee sports. Your Twitter feed is as exciting as walking, watching paint dry on a Packers helmet.
You're the human equivalent of a 2 AM infomercial always on rarely watched and leaving everyone wondering who actually listens to this guy that I will say cut pretty deep, but Hey, at least you're consistent in your mediocrity, which is more than we can say for some of the teams you cover again, leave it to AI to get me with the burn of all burns. Speaking of Packers helmets, this is the big news. I did see online and there's a lot of discourse on it.
There's here. Here's what's already happening on Twitter that I have seen. Um, the Packers unveiled that they're going to have a white out against the Texans and they're going to wear a white helmet.
Okay. So they've got a different helmet and it's going to be white. You may think, Oh, they have alternate helmets, right? No, they just take all the off their yellow ones when they wear their throwbacks, but they're going to have an all white helmet to go with their all white Jersey. Um, the all white Jersey's fine. I wish they didn't wear it at Lambo. I think Lambo should be green and gold, but that's fine. I get over it.
So they put it out. A couple of people say, I don't like this. And then it's the quick reaction of, Oh, you guys don't like it. I do. Fuck off.
Fuck off, man. I don't think I like it. I got to see it on the field. The Packers have, you know, they're consistent in their jerseys.
Yeah. It's changed a little bit over the years. Um, like maybe the socks or the stripes on the sleeves, but I mean, it's a consistent green and gold, yellow and gold Jersey. I don't mind them playing around. You know, I don't, I don't think the Packers would look good in city connects or whatever, but, uh, I don't know. I'd have to see it on the field.
It looks, it just looks, it reminds me of like Oregon, like something Oregon would do, you know, green and yellow, and then they go white for a game. So I guess if I see it, maybe I'll change my mind. If it's on the field, maybe I'll like it better. But, um, right now I'm closer to indifferent than I am actually not liking it. I'm kind of indifferent. Uh, you know, if you're going to go all white, you might as well strap it on the head too. But I don't know.
I don't have, I don't have a hot take on them. Um, the Packers helmet, uh, at this point, uh, I did get a voicemail from hot take Jake. Again, the voicemails four Oh two nine one five B a R T thanks to Carl's place. Um, I don't know if hot take Jake accidentally called me and then decided to leave a voicemail or if he wanted to leave a voicemail the whole time. But, uh, here's how to take Jake, who I think this is the second time. Well, I'll just play it.
Uh, hot take Jake. Good morning. First of all, I don't know if this is even a thing anymore. I may just be talking to nobody in particular.
I hope that, um, let's not be so dramatic. It's, it's still the, the number still works. Yeah. I may have accidentally just called your cell phone at six 49 a.m. So a thousand apologies as I meant to call the, uh, what do you call this?
Is this the sound offline? I forget the sponsor. It's been so long. Anyways, I just wanted to comment on Jordan love signing an extension with green Bay, Kenny Clark signing an extension with green Bay and Packers fans.
We should be elated right now. Uh, Brian Goudekun's rust ball. That's a duo right there. Like that's a couple of guys that if they ran 2024 here in November, how could you not vote for them? Because you hear an old adage a lot of times that like, you know, you have a lot of good players. You can't pay everybody.
And somehow these two figure out how to freaking do it, but that's a double edged sword here. I need to remind you Packer fans out there of how excited and happy and gloating you are right now. So that means you also need to shut the fuck up this coming off season when we're not saying any of these big free agent players. What the hell? Well, we already did.
Okay. When you have a guy that can figure out how to pay a top quarterback, a top left tackle for how many years freaking top wide receivers, the one of the best corners in the game, one of the most disruptive defensive lineman in the game. Like you, you, you kept this team together and I think those guys need to be commended more.
They don't get enough love for that as it is. So that's my comment for today. Bart, I miss you. I believe in Bart Wingler. Oh, I like it.
A little Joe Hendry there. Hey, Jake's right. You got to have the money to pay your own guys, which the Packers have done.
And again, it doesn't kill us as much as you think it might. There's a big narrative, the whole, uh, Jordan love. You're paying Jordan love for eight games. You're paying Jordan love for eight games. If Jordan love was a free agent, he would get this money. He might even get 60. If Dak becomes a free agent, he'll get 60.
If Patrick, Patrick, my love Patrick, my love, if Patrick, my love was a free agent, he'd probably get 80, uh, maybe even more. I broke all this down with Peter Bukowski, um, via the phone. So I'm going to share that with you.
And then we can talk a little Brewers, maybe some Olympics. This is into the Winkler verse. Hey, it's Kaylee Cuoco for Priceline. Ready to go to your happy place for a happy price?

Go to your happy price Priceline. Friend of show Peter Bukowski. He is with the lockdown Packers crew. You can also check out his newsletter, the leap, which I was digging into today, Peter, this, uh, Jordan love contract.
And thanks for a few minutes, friend. Um, it's structured in a way that again, you hear four years, $220 million, but it is not structured in that way that it's going to be $55 million of harmful cap to the Packers. If things go south, it might be bad down the road, but this is a pretty, this is a pretty, I would think team friendly deal for green Bay.
Yeah, I was, I was pretty surprised as I dug through it. Once, once we started to get the, some of the numbers trickling out and it really all starts with the Packers willingness to say, look, uh, we're gonna, we're gonna set the market. We're going to break the market when it comes to signing bonuses. It seems, it seemed impossible to me that after all of these, these mega contracts that have been done, I mean, Deshaun Watson got $230 million fully guaranteed, but when you fully guarantee that much money, you don't have to give a signing bonus.
Like that's, that doesn't, it doesn't really matter. Cause you know, you're going to get every dollar there. The Packers, their, their modus operandi here is we don't want to give out money in the future. That's what they are saying. Hey look, guys, we think you're great, but we're not going to guarantee money into the future. So instead what they did is they said, here's $75 million upfront. Well, this is really, you said it's not a four year, $220 million deal. It's 70 million on the cap in the last year. So it's really a three year, $150 million deal. Well, $70 million, $75 million that is guaranteed. Is your head spinning yet?
Mine is a little bit. So that means half of the money in the, in the three years that you're getting is signing bonus money. And that is what keeps this so team friendly where you can spread all of that money out. And you're not dealing with these monster cap hits. He does not have a cap hit over $40 million until you're three and doesn't go over 50 until you're four.
And that's of the extension. So this is, this is at least a three year window, including this year, maybe four for the Packers while they have Jordan love pretty cheap. Jordan loves signing this big deal to assigning a big deal.
Both of these things happening last Friday, when we were talking on Friday on the show, a lot of people that were calling in were saying of the two, they would prefer Jordan love instead of Tua. But then the, I think tagline that's gotten trendy for a lot of folks is you're paying him that much for eight good games. I've done a few different hits throughout the day today where I'm trying to explain that it's a little bit more than that. How are you explaining that it's a little bit more than just eight good games? Well, here's, here's the thing, Bart, the eight good games.
Okay. They were so good. He was, they were, they really were, Peter, they really were. But I'm just saying when you look, okay, so there was that rough stretch, October five games where he was not as strong as you would want him to be right. But over the course of the season, he is a top five quarterback in, in, in touchdown passes in EPA per play, which is an efficiency metric in any of the adjusting for opponent metrics that you like six in, in DVO, a that I like certainly, um, defense adjusted value over average was just a fancy way of saying how good were you relative to the opponents that you played? Are you here bears fans and Viking fans and, and 49ers fans say, Oh, he didn't, they didn't play anybody. You know, they played the Steelers. That's a really good defense. They played the Vikings. That's a really good defense. They played the Cowboys who by some metrics were the number one defense in the league. He'd lit them up. So yeah.
Okay. Only eight good games, but compared to CJ shroud, who everyone said is now, you know, the second coming of Tom Brady. And yet when you look at the grade, the games where Jordan Love and CJ shroud graded, um, above average in that like good to great range, Jordan love had more of those games. He had fewer of the games where he graded in that bad range. He had more games where he had a higher pass rating, a pass rating over 90 and fewer games with a pass rating under 60.
So it, this, this idea that, Oh, it's just eight good games. Well, in any given season, any quarterback probably only has eight really good games, but that's the thing. Those games were so good that over the course of the season, he, he graded out the efficiency out any way you want to look at it. He had a top 10 quarterback season. And the last stat that I'll throw out here at you is in his first year as a starter, those last eight games, 24 touchdowns, one interception, the only players in, in modern NFL history in their first year of starters to match those numbers in any eight game sample, Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, they won MVP, those seasons. So that is the company that Jordan love kept in his first year as a starter. I mean, it was really good.
Peter Bukowski locked on Packers. It was, it was, it was really good watching it. It felt like he was really good. Yeah. Oh, you've been, you've been just crushing it, Peter.
I mean, the work you are doing is impeccable. Jordan love, you know, trying to match your excellence of course, but there was runs there where it felt like, Oh, this is like kind of watching what the runs of Rogers used to look like. It was just like cool composure throws that were threading the needle, all this kind of stuff. I know that Bears fans and Vikings fans, and maybe some Lions fans were like in their feelings and fake celebrating that the Packers gave a bunch of money to a guy because they don't understand how the world works. Is, is there like if, is there worry of any regression? Is there worry that what we saw from Jordan love last year, that that is the best he'll ever be? Cause I think that with three years of being under Rogers, just like Rogers was under Favre, I really do think Jordan love is going to be prime for an MVP type season.
Well, I mean, I just gave you the numbers. If that's all he is last year, that's a top 10 quarterback. So like who cares in some ways, like he doesn't have to get better. I was talking to Aaron shots, formerly football outsiders, now of STN fantasy.
And that, that interview is going to come out on locked on Pat Packers later this week, shameless plug. But what he was saying was people, quarterbacks who are so good their first year, they tend not to take that year to leap, but only because their baseline is so high. So yeah, Jordan love, probably not going to throw 50 touchdowns next year, maybe not throw 40 touchdowns next year, but if all he does is throw 32 touchdowns next year and 11 interceptions, it'd be really good. Like that's a really good player to have. I would like someone, one person, can I have one person give me a compelling case as to why Jordan love will regress in year two, other than hope and, or cope.
I've yet to see a compelling case made by anybody as to why this would happen. The receivers were, it was the youngest path catching group in modern NFL history, the youngest, they were the youngest team in NFL history to win a playoff game, a first year starter, a first year starter at right tackle, a, an all pro left tackle that you lost for the season. You're platooning until mid season when a seventh round pick takes that job. Your, your pro bowl running back is hurt. Most of the year, your supposed wide receiver one is hurt most of the year. Your, your future stud tight end hurts one of his internal organs. I can never remember which one it was, but has a freak bling or liver injury. One of those, it wasn't his appendix. Um, and he's out six weeks and, and yet all of that is true.
And he's spectacular by the end of the season. I just don't give me the case. I've yet to see point someone, someone out there, point me in the direction of a, of a compelling case for aggression other than I hope that's what happens because that's all I've seen so far. The Green Bay Packers have their annual family night. Uh, this Saturday, it's their scrimmage, but this one fills up the stadium. Tickets are sold out. Parking's sold out. I'm just checking the forecast. It's actually going to be hot on Saturday.
Usually this thing's rained out every year, but maybe this will be a little bit of a difference. They are, uh, also led on defense now by Jeff Halfley, who came over from Boston College. The, as the head coach, I have been for years in talking about the Packers defense. I just look at the names on the defense and I think, oh, okay, this should be a top 10 defense. There are a handful of defensive coordinators in this league that could come in here with the operation that they run and they could get great results out of this defense. It hasn't happened in the last handful of coordinators. Should I believe, and should Packers fans believe, should I believe Packers fans believe that Jeff Halfley is going to be the guy to at least finally get, to get this defense playing to at least their median potential?
We've seen this movie before, haven't we, Bart? Like that's the problem is you got excited about Mike Patton. You got excited. Well, no one got excited about Joe Berry, honestly. Um, everyone knew that that was the only case for Joe Berry was I was excited about Jim Bates all those years ago.
Yeah. Alexander's like, yeah, there's been, there's been a lot of guys, um, since Fritz Schermer, um, uh, God rest his soul. But so look, uh, the, the case for the Joe Berry version of this defense was that the talent is that good. Now Zadiria Smith is not there anymore. Devondre Campbell is not there anymore, but Jerry Alexander is an all pro corner. Kenny Clark is a pro bowl defensive tackle. Xavier McKinney is a probable caliber safety that they just brought in.
They have the talent to be a really good team. And I thought it was really interesting. Jeff Halfley mentioned, um, today in fact, um, or maybe it was yesterday. It doesn't matter in his, in, in, uh, maybe availability this week, he was talking about how it's really more about attitude. There are, there are scheme flaws in every scheme.
Like there's no perfect scheme or everyone would run it. It's about attitude. And the attitude of this team has just not been right.
I think the first, the first two seasons really with Mike Patton, I think you can make the case where, where the last time the attitude was right, but look at what happened in Cleveland last year. They, they go same, same personnel that they made some additions, but the stars of that team were basically the same, but you're bringing Jim Schwartz who says, you know what, you know, we're going to do, we're just going to fly around at people and, and hit and like worry about giving, giving up touchdowns later. Like it's fine dictate terms to opposing offenses. It feels like that's what this defense is going to do. And the joke that I've been making is they, Jeff Halfley is going to coach this defense the way that you or I would play Madden.
And I think that's a good thing. Just engage eight every time pressures. It's going to be man coverage. It's going to be zero blitzes in the red zone. He plays the way that every fan wants to play.
And so when loser draw, like you have to, you have to respect that on a certain level. And it seems to be translating in practice, like Evan Williams, this rookie from Oregon, who a lot of people thought, including myself was overdrafted in the fourth round, he's got three interceptions in practice. They, did they have a safety last year with three interceptions all year?
Like, I don't think so. They only had seven total interceptions on the season. Now I know it's training camp, but Javon Bullard, the other rookie safety, he's got an interception Anthony Johnson Jr. Another safety he's got an interception David McKinney.
He's got an interception. And it's like, w we haven't seen safeties doing this in a Packers defense. I w was Leroy Butler playing safety the last level. It was probably Nick Collins in, in, in the, right before he got hurt in 2011.
So we're talking about almost 15 years since they've really had a safety group that could make an impact, whether or not they do or not. I think that this is a defense that is going to finally create some chaos. And, and if you're a fan, that's what you want. Well, hopefully he's not throwing the controller and resetting the game over and over and over.
Cause he can't get a week one win and you have to win week one and every Madden season is just, you have to do it. So hopefully a little better than, than how I play Peter Bekowski your presence is whatever. Just thanks for coming on. Anytime, Bart.
Appreciate it, man. I want them gummy squares. I want them gummy squares. I want some sleepy, sleepy with no more anxiety. I need them gummy squares. I need them gummy squares. I need my wife to find her happy place really soon. We have Delta 8, CBD, and new Delta 9s.
Go to happyplacepep.com. And with that, I've got another voicemail, some instant feedback from that conversation. This is teacher Tom giving a call. Oh, it's summer painter, Tom.
Teacher Tom calling after listening to the first couple segments of your Monday night show talking about Jordan Love and Tua and then the interview with Pete Bekowski. And don't forget that last year, the Patrons played Jordan Love about, I think it was 15 million and they were paying Aaron Rodgers 40 million. They're counting that much against the cap. So for the next four seasons, they, the Patrons will have a lower cap number at quarterback than they did last year. So I think this year it's like 20 million and then 25, 26, 27. It tends to go up 27 when it's 42 million, which is still less than they paid quarterbacks last season.
Then 28 when it would be 72 million and presumably get restructured. That is the next time that the Patrons will play, will pay more to the quarterback position than they paid this season. And now I'm headed over by your house to do some painting, both a house on Oakland and next week, we're going to have a big, 45 boom left there. So that'll be fun. Bye. Oh God, you got to get up on a boom.
Jesus. Good luck, Tom. Good luck. Good luck up there. Maybe I'll drive up and down Oakland and see if I see you. So yeah, a lot of good stuff coming out of Packer camp.
Again, Jordan Love is there. You got your first game coming up next weekend against the, what the fuck? The Packers, the Browns. I just went to look at my schedule. Where the fuck is my Packers schedule on my calendar? Come on.
Do I got to reinstall it on this thing? That pisses me off. What the fuck? All right. Cause it's August 10th is their first game.
Game tonight bears Texans. You know, I'm going to be sinking my ass into draft Kings on that, which got rid of rainmakers, which fucking cost me a lot of money. And they better give me back every dollar I spent on that shit.
Yeah. I got sucked in buying NFTs playing games with NFTs at a Marvin Harrison. I was sitting on for 80 bucks.
I better fucking get that money. Come on. Oh, I woke up to that email the other day. Pissed me off. It's like, I, my whole body itches that I have something to fix on my phone with my calendar. Where the fuck did it go?
God. Uh, speaking of calendar, Brewers off today. They did not have a great July. Did they, um, they won one series, I think two series. They lost the series or they tied the series at the Rockies, lost the series against the Dodgers, lost the series against the pirates, lost the series against the nationals. Beat the twins in those two beat the Cubs two or three lost a series of the Marlins as they were trading their entire team away. And then lost the series to the Braves.
Devin Williams back pitched against the Marlins, but it wasn't needed against the Braves. So they did not win a series at home in the month of July. They're in Washington, the schedule, this month's tough.
So we're going to find out some stuff here. Uh, they're in Washington, then they're in Atlanta. So we got them again, Cincinnati at home. They're in Washington.
They're in Atlanta. So we got them again, Cincinnati at home, the Dodgers at home for four first place guardians come into town. Then we go to St. Louis who doesn't suck anymore. Oakland, the giants and the reds again, that's August.
So it's going to be a tough month. Um, after what's already been, you know, a not good month record wise, Adam McKelvey wrapping up yesterday's game, a costly air, a two out walk, some puzzling maneuvers and four homers between Matt Olson and Travis Darnell was all the Brewers needed as they capped an 11 and 13 month. Uh, Pat Murphy liked, um, the splits for Monasterio.
He didn't pitch him late in the game. Um, some Pat Murphy criticisms this week. Overall, I think we're very happy with Pat Murphy. I think the team certainly has a better vibe with Pat Murphy, but you still got to manage these games.
You still got to make the right decisions when it's time. The Brewers, uh, only a game and a half out of the Dodgers for the two seed. So had they done just a little better, so had they done just a little better, you flip that around 11 and 13, make it 13 11 in July. You are a, you're a team in the bi-week right now, which again, I don't know that I like cause then teams have off and those teams lose constantly, but I don't know if something to play for is that NL West is getting a little tighter, but so is the NL central Brewers five games up on the Cardinals, which made some moves. Uh, Eric Fedde, the big one, the pitcher, um, they got Tommy Pham back. So that's stupid. The pirates are six behind reds nine behind cubs still in last place.
Cause they're fucking losers. Um, yeah, they got to keep winning games, trade deadline. I don't think many of you were that impressed. We're going to see Frankie Montas this weekend against, um, Washington, Jacob Junis just had a nice outing before they dealt them. Joey Weimer ends up being the odd man out. We thought one of these outfielders might have to go, Joey Weimer, who we all just assume now.
And I think we're all right. We'll eventually turn out to be a Brewer killer with the reds. Uh, Brewers also getting Nick Mears over the weekend.
He gave up some runs the other night. So this was a very Brewers trade deadline. You get a reliever from somewhere. You get a starter that's been struggling and you go when's the last time they got like a big offensive weapon at the deadline.
Like a, like a Ray Durham, like a Tony Graff, a Nino Jonathan scope. So not a thrilling trade deadline. Of course, the Dodgers, the Dodgers, a team that not only can we pay all the money to anybody we want ever, Hey, look at our top three lineup. It's Betts, Ohtani and Freeman, but they can also get Jack Flaherty right at the deadline.
Five minutes before. Well, let's just go underpaid the tigers for Jack Flaherty. Who would have been a great addition.
He's a rental could have got him. Uh, Brewers do not do that. They go the Frankie Montas route. I guess they were in on Eric Fetti, which is always what teams say. Like the Yankees. Oh, the Yankees put our report. We were in on Jack Flaherty.
It was just, uh, we, we, we thought he was hurt. Oh, did you? Yeah.
Is that, is that what you do? Just like the Packers were in the mix for everybody all the time. Um, what's the deal? Nick Mears is 27. He's got a shitload of years left in arbitration. So a lot of team control.
Oh yeah. Montas Montas has a $20 million mutual option next year that the Brewers will not lock into, uh, with a $2 million out. Wade, Miley's got a $12 million one next year, which I, the way their staff is, who's pitching for us next year, DL hall Woodruff will come back. Um, I guess Savale is still under contract. That was their other trade. The deadline wasn't as exciting, but a lot of moves did happen.
Uh, I think a lot of teams just got like a little better contenders trading with contenders, giants trading out off outfielders and then trading for our fielders. Jesus. Oh, excuse me. Must've drank too much last night.
Big surprise. So we'll see what happens. This is gonna be a tough month, uh, for the Brewers for sure. Um, basketball, I think a lot of you guys are rooting against Giannis or at least Greece so that they can get kicked out. And, uh, um, Giannis can be done. They've got Australia six 30 in the morning tomorrow. If you're interested in that USA back against Puerto Rico on Saturday. Oh, it was, it would have been so funny if Jason Tatum just did not keep playing. So Tatum doesn't play in game one and then in B doesn't play in game two and Steve curse tinkering with the lineups. I remember these are only 40 minute games. These are only 40 minute games.
So it is hard to get everybody in there. I think LeBron James is better than Jordan. I think he's the best basketball player in the world. Uh, what he's doing at 39 leading this team.
I, again, I hate diving into this conversation because there's so many people that get so angry. I feel like I watched enough Jordan to, to know, obviously I've watched more of LeBron than Jordan. Um, cause Jordan got drafted the year I was born, but I didn't miss a finals that whole stretch of Jordan.
I didn't miss. I just am very impressed with LeBron and I think like 20 years into your career, he's good enough where he can get his son drafted. I mean, this is, this is what a talent this man is. So I, I enjoy these guys like during the year, I don't like Kevin Durant that much.
And I don't like, um, LeBron James really that much when he's a Laker, but on team USA, I love these guys still not that into Tatum and, uh, don't like, uh, Tyrese Halliburton that much either, but he's not even playing. So who cares? Uh, with that I've been enjoying the gold zone. If you get peacock, that's really interesting. Peacock's got the gold zone where you can watch all these games and events. Uh, the Olympics, a lot of people are watching it.
It's very cool. I know there's a lot of, uh, people trying to get really mad about the Olympics every day. It's like every day, what can we do to get the Olympics canceled? But I'm just watching it for the sports and the sports are really good. And, uh, the gymnastics was fun. I watched that. I watched the women's triathlon the other day. Cause it started right. As I got home from work when they were swimming in the poop river, uh, was, was fun. Uh, the sane river, I call it stain river.
Cause a poop stain. So Yannis will probably be done by the weekend unless, uh, that team sucks. That, that Greece sucks. There's some bad players there. Uh, and then there's Yannis. It's kind of funny.
And he's like a foot and a half taller than all of his teammates. It seems like it's pretty funny. Um, yeah. So we'll see what happens with the brewers Packers family night this weekend. I don't think it's going to rain. Normally it rains or storms during family night. Um, it's been fucking miserable outside.
Hasn't it so goddamn hot. Yeah. I don't think it's going to rain.
So that should be good for people that are going. Um, all right. The other thing that I want to play for you guys, this is a game we do 12, 20 in the morning, but it's called guess what they said where Carlos Ortiz, the EP of the show, uh, Marco Belletti. I think you hear from, he does the updates. I bring him in at the end, but what we do is there's five sound bites and I have to guess what the person says. Cause it'll be like, um, head coach on quarterback. Well, you know, we want to see him play well, blah, blah, blah.
I just feel like these guys say the same thing all the time. So Carlos puts me to the test and I do want to share that because I think it's good. I think it's a good segment.
I like it. Um, kind of wish we could have done it back in the day with frames and maybe if we ever reunite, um, we'd bring that back. All right. Uh, otherwise we will catch up soon. Talk about family night next week. We'll be returning very, very soon.
Once grant is back from his trip, we just took the month off. So we'll get that fired up again, uh, probably next week. And thank you guys for finding me no matter what the Twitter AI says.
What was the burn on me again? Uh, that really got me. You're the human equivalent of a 2 AM infomercial, always on rarely watched and leaving everyone wondering who actually listens to this guy.
Well, I thank you for being one of those that actually do. Um, guess what she said or no, that's what they said is next. That'll be coming up, uh, in just a minute, a reminder, happy place, hemp, promo code bark, 25% off each and every order.
That's right. B a R T going to get out there next week. Restock on some stuff. I need some of those gummies need some of those, uh, seltzers. Those have been very good, came in handy as well. And the, uh, night gummies, the CBD CBN take those regularly. I've got a couple people on them, uh, just by word of mouth also. So I appreciate you guys continuing to get them.
Maybe now would be a good time for a stock up again. The promo code works every time you do it. Happy place, hemp.com, promo code Bart, 25% off every single time. I wonder what is the most one person use that code. Are we up? Is anybody up to 10 times? Does anybody have to 10 times? If you get an order for a hundred bucks and you've used it 10 times, you've saved 200 bucks.
I can do math. 25% off happy place, hemp.com. Again, happy place, hemp.com. The promo code is Bart for all of their gummies and tinctures and everything that they can make available for you. So you don't have to drive all the way across the border to get what you are looking for.
Happy place, hemp.com. Here at the Bart Winkler show, we give you hot takes hot mics and, um, hot guesses. It really doesn't matter what you say. And I'm hoping that nobody on our team is playing for you.
It's the audio of the day you need and the transcript. You don't laughing about it. You think this is funny. I take this serious.
I'm not real serious. I put my heart and soul into this every single week. The contestants are ready. You played to win the game.
Hello? The Bart Winkler show proudly presents guess what they said. Listen, we're talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game.
We're talking about practice. Here is tonight's host Carlos with a K I'm a man on 40. All right. It's time for the game that is sweeping the nation or at the very least the affiliates that carry us, which should be everybody. We'll work on that.
Guess what they said. We do some Mondays on Fridays on the Bart Winkler show. So for Mondays, we get the audio of the weekend and I'll literally have Bart try to guess what he said. Five clips as usual, Bart, you know how this game works by now. This one should be a layup.
The whole, the whole one, this, this whole clip should be a layup. You know, I think you'll do well today. You, you haven't, you've been losing a little bit lately, but I think I feel good about it. You know what else I've been losing my mind over how bad I've been. Well, let's see if we can get back. I've got 20 years of experience in this business. You know, how many interviews I have sat through, how many, you know, how many interviews I've had to log, how many cuts I've had to make, how many pressers I've had to listen to. And for me to not excel at this game 100% is a shame to my family.
No, I'm sure they can still hold their head up high when they're walking. All right. So here's the first one. Here is Jaskism. I'm pretty sure I just butchered that name, but I don't care.
No, I think it's all right. He is no longer Marlin and no longer Marlin and why, why anybody wanted to be in Miami Marlin? That's beyond me besides the paycheck. He got traded to the Yankees over the weekend. So here is, I'd like you to guess what Jaz said about being traded to the Yankees. Now, how long is this? 10 seconds. 10 seconds. Um, what did you want a four minute hit? It's, you know, it's a clip.
We got to get the show moving along. Okay. First I'm looking up to see if he had any facial hair.
Okay. Uh, which it looks like he does. So he is going to say something about that. He's going to say, I'm excited, but, or he's gonna say, Oh man, I got to shave. Yeah, this is a shave cut. This is a shave cut. It's always a shave cut. This is a shave cut. Shave cut. It was great. I mean, I found out that I was going to go to a contending team, a team that was in first place fighting for a playoff spot.
And I mean, I'm excited to play in October for the Yankees. How do you get the layup wrong? How do you miss that badly off rip? Dude? I literally fed it to you. Oh, it's a shave.
They always talk about being, having to shave. You are way overthinking it, man. I don't, of course he's excited, but you, you and your, I want to make Bart lose. You've got me overthinking things. Yeah. No, yeah, no, this was, that's completely on you layup. You, I laid it up to you and you threw it into the fourth row. All right. Oh, and one, I mean, there's nothing I can do.
You can lead a horse to water. Here's Dawn Staley on Kaitlin Clark, not being selected for the Olympic team. This one's about 16 seconds long.
I'd like you to guess accurately, hopefully what Dawn Staley said. Now are people still pretending that it was smart to leave her off? Is that still, did you see the attendance for their game today against, I believe it was Japan. I did not. It was the lowest attended women's basketball game of the tournament so far.
That's not what you want. And this is team USA. So I don't know if people were expecting to blow out. I don't know if a bunch of, you know, French natives or whoever, like has the Kaitlin Clark phenomenon reached Europe? I don't know. I think that they are, and this is our friend Dawn Staley, you said, right? Correct.
Yeah. I think that she realizes they made a mistake. Now she won't admit that. She'll be like, oh, maybe if, you know, we tried out today, maybe she did, you know, something stupid. She, she's going to basically say she should be on this team without being on this team. Kaitlin is just a rookie in the WNBA. Wasn't playing bad, but wasn't playing like she's playing now.
If we had to do it all over again, the way that she's playing, she would be in really high considerations of making the team because she is playing head and shoulders above a lot of people. Yeah. How do you get that one? Right. But you missed the easy layup. You should be to a no. That's my celebration. Dang it. All right. Well, there you go.
Well, you're one-on-one back on track over here. Can't she just admit. Yeah. I mean, listen, it's not that hard to be like, you know what, if we had to redo it, it would be like, we had to redo it. Kaitlin would be on this team.
I can, we go ahead. I got, I got, I just, I feel like, I guess if she admits it, you know, like all the fans that wanted Kaitlin on a team or will cry out on social media. So what it's not going to do anything. They're not going to retroactively put her on the team. Just say, you know what, Hey, we messed this one up, but Hey, she'll be, she'll be, she's as good as she is. She'll be here in four years. And that's it.
Call it a day. I feel like what happened here on this team is she's too young. She's got to earn it, et cetera, et cetera, which is fine. And I shouldn't be so adamant to take away an honor from another person on this team. Right.
Cause they're all everyone on this team is deserving, you know, whatever I have to say to preface this. Sure. Yeah. It'd be that easy, but you know, whatever. But I think you can have easily kicked off Diana Taurasi for Kaitlin Clark.
I'm sorry to be so controversial. She's already got five medals. Well, she started, they played 15 minutes. Come on. She was one for two.
Diana Taurasi is on this team to take two shots a game. Come on, get Kaitlin Clark over that. It's, it's, it's, it's a bummer. It's a bummer.
I think it's a bummer. And you know what, for, for drama filled purposes, they really missed out on like having another beef with, if Clark was in there for Taurasi. So just for me sipping tea, I would have enjoyed that, but let's, let's get the third clip here. Now this one's a little bit of a twist Mark, cause I've never asked you to do this before, but I want you to put on your play-by-play hat. I'd like you to guess Joe Davis's play-by-play call of Shohei Ohtani's home run over the weekend.
This is courtesy of Spectrum Sportsnet LA. I want you to do a little play-by-play and guess what Joe Davis said. How am I supposed to, can I like see the home run? Do I get any specifics of it? It's a Shohei home run.
There's, there's nothing really spectacular about it. He hit a home run. Do we like Joe Davis? Sure.
Why wouldn't we? I think he's kind of bland. He's one of those guys. He's just, he's just, he's a pro. He's good at his job. He doesn't, he doesn't rub anybody the wrong way.
I think he's a very nice high floor announcer. A Shohei hits a home run. Wow. That's pretty great. I got no, I got, I need to see the video.
You've seen a Shohei home run before. I'm like, we're not reinventing the wheel. So what's so special about this one that you picked it? The call itself. I don't know. I don't think I agreed to play-by-play calls a part of this game. We haven't established that in the rules. Guess what they said. And Joe Davis is somebody saying something.
Yeah, that's very true. All right. Shohei Ohtani with a deep fly. Oh my God.
I'm Joe Davis. That is a smash. I can't even see it, but I heard it. Oh, it's gotta be long gone. It is. Shohei Ohtani to somewhere in Texas.
Two to nothing Dodgers. All right. So you know why I got to give you the wrong buzzer, right? You know why.
Why? Because you gave, you didn't get, if you would have gave me an honest, full attempt at trying to do play-by-play on this, I think I would have been leaning and give you the buzzer. You're like the I'm Joe Davis at the end of the call automatically was going to disqualify you from getting a pretty good Joe Davis. It wasn't bad until you said, you are Joe Davis.
I can't see it, but I can hear it. That's pretty good. I'm Joe Davis. I can't stand you. All right. You're one and two.
All right. Here's Randy. Are you done? You got any more left than you more Joe Davis. I don't, I don't think I like play-by-play in this game.
Duly noted for next time. Here is Randy Johnson. You remember him? Here's Randy Johnson on what he's recognized most for Randy Johnson was a former major league pitcher. He won a world series championship with the Diamondbacks.
He played for the Yankees, played for the Mariners, played for a bunch of different guys. Guess what Randy Johnson said on what he's most recognized for. And this clip is about 10 seconds long. So it's gotta be when he killed that bird, but also that was, that was from the back. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Like, yeah, it was like, if someone comes out, you saw the video and it's like the back of him. Yeah. Yeah. If someone sees Randy Johnson about what he's recognized most for, like if you know, Randy Johnson, and then you see Randy Johnson, then you go up to him and say, Hey dude, remember when you killed that bird?
But if you just see Randy Johnson and say, I recognize you do yourself a favor. Stop talking. Hey, remember when you killed that bird, people go, Hey, aren't you the pitcher that hit the bird? That's it. Right. And I, and I look at him and I go, I played 22 years and I've done a lot more than just kill a bird. There you go. Two and two.
I'm like sometimes Bart, you just want to stop talking. What I was going to say was, aren't you that guy that part-time freelancers as an NFL photographer now. And then what's funny is the company logo of his photography business is that dead bird. It is? Yes. If you look at Randy Johnson photography, the logo is literally a bird upside down on its back.
Okay. That is funny because I thought. I'm surprised here. I thought he was running away from that. I thought he was mad about that. He used to not like it. I know that I guess now he's now he's like embracing it. He's got to embrace it. Yeah.
He's leaning into it. I mean, the logo is a dead bird. Yeah. A little morbid if you ask me, but Hey, I get it.
You know, the internet is even an X where the I would be. Oh my God. All right.
Yeah. Well, the good news for you is you two and two, you would have easily won if you hit the layup, but that's, I digress. So here, this one's for all the marbles here. You're not going to get this one.
I'm sorry. Here is Snoop Dogg calling Olympic badminton. Another play by play clip. I want you to guess what Snoop Dogg said. Trying to call badminton.
Well, I know of a sport called badminton. Whatever. Fine. I'll get the buzzer here.
Cause I can't pronounce anything. Where's Marco. Marco hung me out to dry. Marco's over here just laughing until it's so he can help you correct words, but he can't help me.
Thanks Marco. Well, you didn't ask. You just said it.
That's very true. I didn't ask. So you made an ass of yourself.
What can I tell you? Yeah. See, I assume that, you know, what happens when you assume badminton, I didn't even know it was an Olympic sport.
Well, that's a different conversation. How is that an Olympic sport? Badminton. It is how it smelled.
It is how it smelled. How do you say this again? Badminton.
Badminton like, like gloves, mittens. Yeah. That's dumb. It's dumb. It's dumb.
It's dumb. It's literally spelled bad mint on. I'm looking at it right now. Mint on. Bad mint on. Bad mint on. Yeah.
That's how they used to pronounce it. Well, you know what? Guess what Snoop Dogg said? Loser. Guess what Snoop Dogg said? Yes. Calling badminton? Yes.
He's uh, and this clip is 24 seconds long. Have fun. Hey yo, it's Snoop double G and I'm in Paris and I got the birdie going and I love the little tweet, tweet birdies going. Hey there. Whoa. Oh my God.
It's so hot and fresh. Bad, badminton, badminton for beezy. I hate to ask. Is that your final answer? Yes.
Oh, I love this Batman right here. This is a great rally right here between China and the U S right here. As you see it, don't stop to the casket drop.
They rocking and rolling back and forth. Give me that. No, I need that. No, I got it.
I think it's good enough. Way up in the sky. Now down, back up over there. Now over here, get out the way.
Move. I told you we need that. You think you got that Marco? I do actually. I think he got it.
He had enough of it in there to be able to get part of it. Yeah, I do. Let me, let me confer with the console here. McCarthy helped me out to dry the other day.
I need, I need Marco back. I disagree with the council's decision, but it's not a council of meat. This is not a dictatorship. I've taken under advisement what those official scoring was going to be. They decided to award you to points.
So finally, I feel like in the first time in forever, Bart Winkler has won. Guess what they said. Here you go.
Enjoy. I've never got this one. Yeah.
Cause it's the winter clothes. All right. Well, thank you, Marco. Hey, I'm just being fair.
This is the winter closes. Is that, was that like a Nintendo game or it's final fantasy. Okay. All right. That sounded like a Nintendo game. All right.
I thought it was Mario. Okay. All right. Take that game, Marco. That's we can put Marco to that game someday.
I got to do the Joe Davis. No, I think, you know what? So I think the reason why I decided to like take the council's advisement on this ruling here is they felt that play by play was too unfair. So I'll respect the council's decision. And I still think in fairness, I think he did.
He had, you had like two lines in there that were almost identical to what Snoop was saying. Now, granted, he did talk for 24 seconds, but you had enough and that's enough. That's what this is about. That's all that ever. As long as I have enough on this show to get me to tomorrow. That's all that ever counts.
