Speaker 1: When your old career gives you lemons.
Speaker 2: Throwing some ice, mixing some vodka.
Speaker 3: It's colored The podcast from the Mac of All Trade
Studio in Fairport and driven by Victor Chrysler Dods jeep Ram.
Speaker 2: It's Billified the Bill Moran Podcast.
Speaker 1: Well, hello and welcome, plea.
Speaker 3: You survived the past couple of days. To survive always okay?
Snow yeah, I know, and drinking, Well that's the thing,
and uh yeah, I was talking to relatives today. It's
like they're calling it snow crete in Virginia because it's
frozen and it's literally taking you know how when they
do the paving of the road, they rip the road up.
They're using those to tear up the ice because they
can't they on salt.
Speaker 1: Well, the salt won't work at certain temperatures.
Speaker 2: So that cold down there, like yeah, it's like like,
because I don't like plasids, they use sand.
Speaker 1: It's a mess up there. Yeah, they didn't know they're
not using sand.
Speaker 3: They use uh yeah, they were, that's what they were
using the salt and it's not working at certain temperatures.
Speaker 1: It's been so cold and give.
Speaker 2: It a couple of days, let it melt. Sit in
the house, drink and do what you gotta do. You
all cleared out, stopping down. It's all I got down there.
Speaker 1: They yeah, I guess.
Speaker 3: It's been like twenty degrees sometimes during the day, so
it's the top layer of melt, and then at night
it gets down to like eleven and it freezes up again.
Speaker 2: Oh gee, twenty that's like a heat wave here right now.
Speaker 1: I know, I know. Well, they're not gonna play.
Speaker 3: They're just like they're just not equipped to handle, you
know what I mean, Like people can't.
Speaker 1: The school's been closed all week. Oh boo freaking who
it's just the way. It's funny school now.
Speaker 2: For stupid reason. Oh it's too cold. Like our friend
over here is walking district. It's like, get it for
his district. But like Greece, Hilton, it's little.
Speaker 1: Kids waiting for the bus. I don't know what they do.
Speaker 2: But we all grew up and got through it.
Speaker 1: We did. We actually did.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 3: We have two I'm gonna say, and maybe you'll correct me.
I'm not sure to elite student athletes, elite welles hockey
players that are teammates on a travel team correct, and
then opponents on a school team and you know, it's
your son Tyler Muir, and then and then Jack Springer
who goes to is it Irondicqoint East.
Speaker 1: Or West West? Yeah, that's the uh so you get
to face off each other on the ice all the time.
Speaker 3: But I always think, like people say student athlete, like
it's one word, and it actually feels like two full
time jobs. I would think, And you're at Aquinas, which
is I'm not saying that where your friend Jack goes.
Speaker 1: Is this I'm saying you're dumb. But no, no, no, no, no,
I'm not saying it's not as good.
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, like I remember, like my son went
to a private school too, and that the amount of
work is a lot.
Speaker 5: Yeah right, yeah, good amount. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So what what You're in eleventh grade? Yeah, so this
is kind of like a big year in high school.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Academically, yeah, between looking at colleges and trying to figure
out what I want to do in the future.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the but academically, like how is it trying to.
Speaker 5: It's not bad.
Speaker 6: I mean, I have study hall classes every other day
other than its flip flop every other Friday. I have
a gym on Friday, but I usually do my work
in study hall and then I'll do it in lunch
took if I really have to.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And so you and do you get enough sleep? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Because I remember my kid was up to like sometimes
three in the morning doing homework.
Speaker 2: He's up to three o'clock in the morning and playing
video games after he cans.
Speaker 5: I haven't played video games a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: Same thing for you, Jack, Like being the student athlete.
Speaker 7: It's not that bad.
Speaker 4: I have two study halls a day, Yeah, So I
get my work done in study halls normally, and then
maybe if I have extra, I'll do it at home
after practice.
Speaker 1: What's harder to manage? You?
Speaker 3: Like your time or your energy for all this stuff too,
Because I know you're young, right, and but you know
you're working out lifting, trying to put on some bulk
whatever that is.
Speaker 1: It's a lot.
Speaker 5: I'd probably say my time, your time.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: For practices, we can practice from we got out of
school two forty four, and we all we get to
the rink by three o'clock say it. We'll have a
three forty five practice, will be on the ice by
three fifteen, So we'll be skating from about three fifteen
to like four thirty four, four fifty and then go
home eat and then if any work I have to do,
I'll do it then.
Speaker 3: So when did you realize, Like, I mean, you're one
of the best in Monroe County players?
Speaker 1: Is that fair to say?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean I'm not trying to pick on anything,
but like, do you feel a lot of pressure with that?
Speaker 1: Is there? Uh?
Speaker 5: Not really?
Speaker 6: No, No, I just kind of go go out there
and play, Like I don't look at my I don't
look at my personal stats. I'm more of like a
team guy, Like I'd rather go for like quieas hockey.
I'd rather go and have fifteen points all season and
do as much as I kind of help my team win,
right sexual title, Like, I'm I'm not a guy that's
gonna look at my stats and be like, oh, like
this game, this game, we're not playing a good team.
I want to go out there and try and get
five points. Like I want to do as much as
I can, obviously, but I want to make sure we're
going to win that game and help our team succeed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so your team first guy, Yeah, would you say
the same thing or do.
Speaker 1: You just the glory and the statue he likes.
Speaker 3: He likes the glory, the goals and the girls, baby,
the goals and the girls, the hockey bunnies. No, no,
what like I gotta think that there's the girls have
got to be all about the hockey team.
Speaker 5: No, I don't look at that.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know either, honestly.
Speaker 1: No. I mean, your equipment smells awful after games and stuff.
Speaker 2: But they both have girlfriends, so they're gonna both. They're
gonna both answer that question.
Speaker 3: All right, Well, have you ever had a day where
you felt so drained, like test and studying and all
this crap, that you just you're like having to go
to practice. I don't, I don't have it. I don't,
I don't have it. Today it almost felt like impossible
to do.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: So I just got over being sick so at school,
like I've just been not having it to zone and out,
always getting up go and blow my nose, and then
when I get to practice, I'm just I'm just dad
by like skating hard to breathe can't catch my breath.
Speaker 1: It was really yeah, and but you just pushed through it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: So like two weeks ago, we went to like Placid
and we played McQuaid on Tuesday and I we lost.
We lost, and I went went home, slept, went to
school the next day and I had chills through two periods,
went home and found out I have a fever of
one hundred and three.
Speaker 1: And you were out there playing.
Speaker 6: Yeah, the day before. I thought I had a concussion
that night, but I didn't. I woke up the next
day in my head was fine.
Speaker 2: And then he just talks like he has a concussion.
Speaker 1: Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait.
Speaker 3: You thought you had a concussion and you went to
sleep anyway you did where you checked.
Speaker 6: I like went home and like just try to like
sleep it off. Like I like went home and like
turn all my lights off.
Speaker 3: Like I'm pretty sure, and I don't know a lot.
I'm just saying I don't know much, and I'm certainly
not a doctor. I don't know if you don't know
aware of that, but I hear going to sleep is
like one of the worst things you can do for
a concussion is that. I see do you know that, Jack.
Speaker 7: I've heard it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you have Have you had concussions? I've had one, yeah,
so yeah, and you don't know. And like I took
one of my kids when they were wrestling, they got
a concussion and I wound up taking them to like
an i optalmologist and they were in the back of
the eye going and we can still see like the
nerve damage there. So when they're clearing people to go back,
they're not really clear.
Speaker 2: I don't know what I was told when Sam had
Sam's had a couple that they can't actually diagnose a concussion. Okay,
then they can see signs of you're messed up, but
they can't actually say you have a concussion or you
don't have a concussion. They could just test the signs,
and they have all this testing that they do with
it to kind of baseline things, and then you go
through a few days and you go back and you
retake the test, and you see how far you've gotten
from the baseline, either up or back.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny because I wonder this too with you guys.
Like a lot of times, I always found when I
was playing sports, I was actually a better student.
Speaker 1: In school.
Speaker 3: I don't and I know you're playing like almost all
year round, and I would assume you are as well, Right,
don't you guys start in July?
Speaker 1: Is it junior July the three late July early August,
late July early August. Okay, I was left by a
couple of weeks, but still, I mean.
Speaker 3: And I just I think like you kind of learn
that performance in one area actually affects performance in another,
and you can you can kind of do better.
Speaker 1: Do you see that?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Well, actually I like to put my my schoolwork first.
Like our coach always preaches that if you have work
to do, like you have to go to a st
hall after school or any review like, go like, don't
worry about going to practice.
Speaker 5: He doesn't want any of us get ineligible.
Speaker 3: So yeah, right, of course, what what is what's the
cutoff for eligibility?
Speaker 6: I think it's two failing grades at the end of
the quarter semester.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure, all right, same thing for you? Is
it two failing or three two?
Speaker 2: How about for you? I know you started out the
season going in, leaving the travel team and going to
the tryouts, messed up your knee a little bit and
you were out for a little while. How how was
that for you? Not being able to be out there
and help.
Speaker 7: It sucked. I hated every second of it. I wanted
to be out there so bad helping them out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I it's it's got to be a
thing where you guys have played since what age.
Speaker 1: Jack very young, like four, maybe four, Tyler like seven,
I think seven.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so like really young ages, and you've both fell
in love with this sport. Yeah, and it's it's what
is that what you want to do?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I want to try. Oh, if maybe not like
Division three, probably right now. If not, we'll see.
Speaker 3: I mean Division three isn't a terrible idea in that
the transfer port opens up for people, and you know,
we see I mean even before the transfer portal, there
were guys who were making it in the pros playing
at a lower level in college doesn't mean.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, there was like the big hockey Division one schools.
They got these club teams, and I've seen a couple
guys on the club teams actually getting called up to
go play for the Division one team. I think a
goaltender from Michigan just got called.
Speaker 5: Up the other day.
Speaker 1: Okay, so, and I think.
Speaker 6: A guy I think last year my brother was at Quinnipiac,
there was a kid on the club team they got
called up to go play.
Speaker 1: So do they practice together the club team and the team.
Speaker 5: I don't know, I know they don't so, but.
Speaker 1: The club team is taken just as seriously then.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Like, I'm pretty sure Sam could get called up
to go play for the Division three Rockport team if
they needed him to.
Speaker 2: And that's with a lot of the colleges, you know,
they don't have There's a small number of Division one schools,
like you've got your Penn State's r Ohio State, stuff
like that, But a lot of the other schools that
have Division one pro and for football basketball, they'll run
a club team and the club team is almost just
as competitive at that level as as the D one
and D two and D three teams.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would I would think.
Speaker 2: You n l V has a team. Alabama had a
club team for years and then they actually just went
D one I think two or three years ago. Really, Yeah,
so it's it's picking up.
Speaker 1: Wow, So was that what you would do?
Speaker 3: How are you looking at a specific place? Do you
want to continue education? There's also what juniors or something.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I've been looking at a couple of spots like
D three, like Geneseo, Hobart, Uh. I haven't looked into yet,
but I was gonna look into like Saint John Fisher.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're just starting a hockey team.
Speaker 2: We might we might know a guy that can help
you out there. Maybe, Yeah, doctor Rice.
Speaker 1: That's right, you know I already called doctor Rice today,
not even kidding going to I am lost here and
I gotta get caught up.
Speaker 2: What's your best? Are you better hockey? You're better at
baseballcause he's he's a baseball guy to Tyler offseason, he's
a golf guy.
Speaker 7: I think I'm better at baseball, honestly.
Speaker 1: Really, Yeah, and you wanted to pursue that would?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what are you looking to do?
Speaker 7: Just play baseball in college at any level? Yeah, wherever
they want me?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Are you getting anybody like sniffing around? No?
Speaker 7: Not yet.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think Fisher had had a baseball team.
Speaker 1: I think he still do. Yeah, and they were pretty good.
Speaker 2: Your brother plays a proc part, doesn't he?
Speaker 7: No, he was at Kuka playing baseball for a while.
Speaker 1: Then that's a Division I school, isn't Kuka? I thought,
oh it might be D three.
Speaker 3: I'm thinking Niagara, I think was I think Niagara was
D one for baseball and hockey and hockey.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's interesting. So you guys when stuff starts slipping.
Where do you use it?
Speaker 3: Sounds like not schoolwork for you doesn't seem to suffer,
But I mean it's got to be like social life sleep,
Where do you start where you're stealing from chores at home?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 6: I don't really seem to lose my social life because
like our hockey, our Quiets team, we are so close,
like it's this probably like one of the closest teams
they've ever been on.
Speaker 5: We're always together.
Speaker 6: We just got a brand new locker room at Lake Shore,
so our coaches like, if you're here at watch another game,
come in the locker room, enjoy it while you have it,
spend time with your teammates in here, and just have
a good time, because you don't want to always take
these things for granted. Because we got so lucky to
be able to have a new locker room. And yeah,
like all most my friends are on our hockey team,
Like I've known him for how long eight years now?
Speaker 2: Probably?
Speaker 6: Yeah, so, and you know you don't lose them. They're
always there, like even though we play for two separate
high school teams, like we're always hanging out.
Speaker 5: We're always doing something.
Speaker 3: You are describing exactly what coaches would always say, I
want you to know when that guy's brushing his teeth,
like you know what I mean, his schedule. They wanted
you to be that close, and it sounds like you are.
But how hard is that to develop, especially when guys
are graduating and new kids are coming in and maybe
you're familiar with some, but as you get more and
more advanced your senior year, who knows the freshman coming
in as well, even though they may have been may
have been around practices, and some eighth graders will play varsity,
but it's it's I would think it's kind of rare
and hockey, you know, yeah, I mean we have.
Speaker 2: A good we have a good chunk at that they've
played in Aquinas. I know for the summer sessions that
they do a lot of stuff with the younger kids too.
They'll have anywhere from sixth graders up to seniors on
the ice in the summer. You kind of practicing and learning,
learning the way that the coach wants to run, how
he runs things and the drills that he does, and
how things are done at the Aquinas level. So it
gives those younger kids the opportunity to be embraced by
the older kids and get to know the older kids
and kind of have that connection and the older ones
always to look out Like we had eighth graders one
year that you know, we're being looked out for by seniors.
And that was one of the fathers said, you know,
this is your year. Now you're not the little anymore.
You're the big You take care of the eighth graders
and you make sure that they're they're safe and they're
doing what they need to do and do what was
done for you. So that's a real.
Speaker 3: That's kind of nice the way they do that. They
do that in the West Ronequy too.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we've I would say we have a we've
had a young team though for a while, and.
Speaker 1: You've got to be giving them wedges in the locker room.
Speaker 7: This is our first year we've had a lost seniors.
Speaker 1: You can't do that anymore, can you?
Speaker 2: There there there is one team that plays at the lake.
Sure that that's been in trouble for some of that stuff.
Speaker 3: But you like it used to be like towel snapping
in a locker room and guys like we used to
have one room with.
Speaker 1: Just shower heads. Do you have stalls or do you
have shower just one room with shower heads? One room
I outside, Yeah, and.
Speaker 3: So everybody's in there and you'd beat somebody be washing
their hair and they'd have their eyes closed, and somebody
else would come over and pee on their leg, and
I think.
Speaker 2: For somebody would soak themselves up and push off the
wall and steal where they could get down the hallway.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did that, but I did that completely make it.
I used to love that.
Speaker 3: Uh, but I just think like that kind of stuff
isn't it doesn't does it play anymore?
Speaker 1: Is there? Or is that just that's bullying?
Speaker 4: I would say it's I don't want to say it's bullying,
but I don't think it's like allowed anymore.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so cowl snapping, you can't snap a tallet a game.
I mean that's just boys being boys, messing around.
Speaker 1: I mean, no, this is interesting. This part is interesting
to me because that was like my whole thing. I
used to love that.
Speaker 3: I mean, God, we tape one kid to a bench once,
and that's bullying.
Speaker 2: Snapping a tallet a kid. I don't know if that's really.
Speaker 3: No, but I mean like it was just and to me,
it was just like play I want. So I was
little and I was in a school seven through twelve,
and I was picking on the older guy so badly
with my mouth run in my mouth run. They three
of them picked me up and they were gonna dunk
me in the toilet, and I grabbed onto the stall door,
but I was upside down and they just left me there.
Speaker 1: Because I would not let go. And then they were
afraid somebody was gonna come in and see me. So
I'm hanging upside down, and this other kid came in
and named muscles. He was like this big, he was
like a year younger than them, and he helped me out.
I was in seventh grade, and that was.
Speaker 2: Like, you have a sixth grader come pick you up
off the wall? Huh, you'd have a sixth cradter come.
Speaker 3: Pick it was a tenth grader. Tenth grader, they came
and picked me up. But the thing that was so
funny is like that was.
Speaker 1: Like a playground to me.
Speaker 3: That was where every stupid dumb thing, you know what
I mean, Like you know you were I don't know,
you would have people like sitting down and make sure
there was tape on there. I don't know, none of
that happens anymore.
Speaker 2: Did they still do the tape a little slice of
tape on the bottom of your skate blade?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so something like that. Yeah wow, I guess
I really was it. Dick just realized, like I thought,
that's what everybody did. I swear to God, man, I
thought everybody in To.
Speaker 2: Be honest with you, the eighties of the nineties were
a different time in locker rooms. I mean, yeah, oh,
there was a lot more bullying, and it was it
was how it was done. And I just like the
older kids beat the hell out of the younger kids.
That's what made the younger kids want to be better
because they didn't want get the chickike that out of them.
Speaker 3: So I always thought that the like that was sort
of the way it went. And now it sounds like
it's been eradicated, like it just doesn't happen. Yeah, that's
I get that's a good thing.
Speaker 2: I guess. Noah, yeah, well places will be cushioned here
and there.
Speaker 3: A well, yeah, that's just nothing. I mean, you're right,
you're right. I gotta remember somebody got there like the
back of their head shaved.
Speaker 1: Lots of stupid stuff.
Speaker 2: Are you guys dying your hair again this year for
sectionals because that that's always a cute look for you guys,
either doing that or mullets.
Speaker 1: Oh the mullet's back, yeah, and is back.
Speaker 2: That's a hockey thing, hockey hair, hockey hair. When I played,
it was just you went out there, you played, you
were good, you got your stuff done. Now you got
to have your hair look good to be good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're not allowed to bleach.
Speaker 1: You're not, okay, So so it's kind of like, yeah,
there's a discipline.
Speaker 6: Lacrosse team did it two years ago and they threatened
to not have him play in their sectional game.
Speaker 1: Really yeah, over hair, the hype.
Speaker 2: The boys did it. Tim did it his one of
those years they had he was it was a senior.
There's blond as could be. I'm like, you'd look ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but do they did he get in trouble? No? No?
Why why? Now?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: It's weird. I wouldn't mind doing it. I want to
do it.
Speaker 3: Can't you buy like the paint that you wash out?
I don't know, instead of dying it, like I thought
there used to be paint, you could sprain your hair.
Speaker 2: I have not looked any of that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wouldn't either.
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, are the teachers, like it sounds
like they're kind of tough on you do the teachers though,
Do they understand kind of your schedule and what you
guys are up against for you know, school and academics,
and or do you feel like you're always explaining yourself
like hey, I need a little extra time.
Speaker 6: Because it kind of depends on the teacher sometimes sometimes
I understand, like if you come it's different.
Speaker 5: Like if you were to come.
Speaker 6: Up to them like a day before it was due
and say, hey, I need more time on this assignment,
I'm sure they wouldn't say no.
Speaker 5: Like like if you were to go up to.
Speaker 6: Three or four days before us doing like hey, like
I'm so busy right now, Like I just need a
few extra days. I'm sure some of them would not mind. Yeah,
it kind of just depends on the timeline.
Speaker 5: Like walk theme up.
Speaker 3: It's a great thing for you guys to learn to
almost to advocate for yourselves. Yeah, you know what I mean.
And I think that's a great thing. There's so many
things with sports and being part of a team that
translate into life that we don't even really pay attention to.
It's the same thing like I always argued as as
an old man that I think that math that every
kid will go, I'm.
Speaker 2: Never gonna fuck you these mad men, Well.
Speaker 3: I got to waste my time. And I would always think, yeah,
but it's helping you learn to critically think and be
logical and mathe you're either right or you're wrong. There's
nowhere in between here. We don't have a gray area.
Maybe the gray area is showing your work and how
you got to the conclusion, right, But I think that
stuff is like really important, and I think for sports
it's it's just immense that you know.
Speaker 1: That that goes with that.
Speaker 3: What what would be like one habit you've had to
learn earlier than most kids at your age just to
keep up.
Speaker 4: Like actually paying attention in the classes and doing doing
all your work done and then in the study. Also
you don't have any stuff to do like after the
game or after practices.
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you?
Speaker 3: And every like there's always that socio what do we
call it, like the stratus, the societal stratosphere so to speak,
in the hallways, uh with with kids and I don't
know about aquinas so much. But there's probably, like I
don't know if they still call it like the burnouts,
the kids that we know they're you know, and do.
Speaker 1: They ever look at you guys and and almost envious?
Speaker 7: No you don't, so I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I don't know, because I always feel like they would,
you know.
Speaker 3: I want to be you know, be a little bit
better or as respected all here comes so and so
the golden child, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: And yet it's you're busting your ass?
Speaker 2: What about for rondic Quake, Say no, irondi Quoits big
sport has always been lacrosse. The lacrosse kids looked like
a quite instance football. They look at the Aquitus football
players differently than they look at a lot of the students.
Do they look at the lacrosse players and irondic Quoit differently?
Speaker 7: I would say, no, no, yeah, no.
Speaker 1: Is Irondequot the big, big lacrosse big lacrosse? Yeah yeah, yeah.
That seems to be blown up for a lot of people.
Speaker 3: How strange is it for you two to be like
on the same team. I don't know if you're both
offensive minded or more defensive, but either blocking or passing
the puck to each other one part of the season
and then on the other you know, you're trying to
bury them into each other's nets.
Speaker 5: Uh, it's a little weird.
Speaker 6: I mean going up against the guys that you play
with for about a couple of months. You kind of
just earned from them, like like you know what you're
gonna what they're gonna do, Like you know what kind
of move they like to do, like what they're gonna
do with the punk. So it's kind of like predictable.
And obviously they're in the game you want to slice
their necks off, but like after the game, like always
go shake their hand, take always take a picture together,
like high fight, dapop or whatever.
Speaker 5: Yeah, go on with our ways.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so it doesn't mess with your head at all.
Once the hockey puck drops, it's just business.
Speaker 1: On the ice.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they'ren't play.
Speaker 6: I mean like after the whistle, after the whistle blows,
if I'm on the ice, I'll say a couple of
chirps to them in a joking way.
Speaker 1: But so, yeah, I heard your your ship talker out there.
Speaker 2: Sometimes he's usually the furthest kid from the fight.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, Oh I don't know why.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because far was away from the fight.
Speaker 6: If I get taken in the box, one guy off,
I'm off the ice in the box.
Speaker 5: Yeah, can't afford to lose a.
Speaker 1: Player valuable, that's not the word, he is.
Speaker 3: It harder, Tyler to play against someone that you hate
or someone that you respect.
Speaker 5: Probably someone you hate, because.
Speaker 1: Harder really, I'll say someone will change. Hates you don't like,
but somebody you don't like.
Speaker 5: Well, I mean it depends on how they feel about you.
Speaker 6: Like if they don't like you, like that ivison to
come after you, and like with hockey you can hit
and stuff like that, and like you know, they're trying
to get out of your skin, so they're slash and
you giving you like cross checking you in the back,
in the corner and stuff like that. So it's like, uh,
the word is like gritty. It's like a gritty, gritty
game to play.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is a gritty game to play.
Speaker 2: How this one plays, He's like he's that gritty ship
talker Jack is.
Speaker 3: And you get down and dirty with these guys and
and I mean, have you taken out a guy you've
played with like that? Like you know, all of a sudden,
we can use Tyler as an example, would you like
check Tyler into the board?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, and yeah, how does that piss you off? Like,
you know, it's your buddy, I don't know you. You're
on a team together, you've traveled together, you do all
this stuff.
Speaker 2: I think it's different though for these guys because I
don't think he's gonna put him into the boards. Yeah,
but he's gonna do everything he can to not hurt him,
but he's gonna make him know that he's there. Whereas
you kids that you don't play against or kids that
you are on other teams, you don't give a shit about.
Speaker 3: That, you know, right, That's that's what I'm saying. It's
like when you do know somebody, I'm wondering if that
would be a little tougher in a way to play
that way, or you know, maybe it's like I don't
know one up. You know, it's just competitive because you
can be competitive without turning into a jerk. But at
the same time, you can become competitive. And I wonder
if there are guys who just like turn out hating
each other even though they were teammates earlier in the year.
Speaker 6: I just I find it fun playing against these guys
that I play with a travel you do. Yeah, it's
you know, you go out there, it's you're not on
the same team as them. So it's kind of like
if you're like, I'm like the I can outdoor rink
or something and you're just like playing around, like you
put sticks in the middle and you get on separate teams.
I just kind of find it's like a fun little game,
but obviously just a little game.
Speaker 5: It's serious.
Speaker 2: But have you where's where's the line? Though?
Speaker 1: Way? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Have you guys had a situation where you've been talking
shit to somebody that you know in the referees just
like what the hell do you just saying? Knowing you
guys known you're just busting balls, but the reference may
not know that you two know each other. You had
a situation where referee is like, do you got to
calm that down?
Speaker 6: Yeah, it actually happened the other day in GENESEEO. I
don't know who it was, but someone one of us
we scored and someone was saying something to the bench
and the ref came over to our bench was like, hey,
you gotta tell someone so like stop talking to their bench,
And he was like, oh, I know them. He's like, well,
I don't I don't know them, so I don't know.
I don't know if it's if I don't know if
you do know him or not, Like you just gotta
stopped it.
Speaker 1: You can't do that, yeah, because he's getting under their
skin and it sounds is it?
Speaker 2: Do they do you get on sportsmen?
Speaker 1: Like in hockey? I don't even know.
Speaker 6: Ye. Yeah, if you say something to the ref and
they take it like depends on the ref, Like there
could be a ref that's like hate, like just it's
not wanting to be there, like he'll call the game
tight or whatever. Like you say something and it comes
off wrong to the ref.
Speaker 2: He'll really Sometimes it's a cop though, if you make them,
if you make them laugh, yeah, they might not be
as app to give you a penalty.
Speaker 1: This is true.
Speaker 3: Humaners always a great it's a great icebreaker. Have you
ever found yourself during a game getting so intense that
it just like I don't know, like you surprise yourself
as how intense you got during a game?
Speaker 1: That's really he gets. But do you surprise yourself?
Speaker 7: Oh no, No, I always know that.
Speaker 1: You know it's coming. Yeah, can you feel it like
building up in you you're.
Speaker 4: Like, well, it just depends on the game, like how
the game is going or we're playing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so when you're out there, I got to think
too that. You know, we.
Speaker 3: Love going to watch people compete. It's one of our
favorite things. It has no consequence in our life. But
we'll spend so much money, right, football, hockey, whatever. But
when those and then some of the hockey games, high
school hockey games get pretty I mean the student sections
can get really rowdy.
Speaker 1: And they can get kind of nasty some of them.
Speaker 7: Yeah, just gonna say she is always the worst.
Speaker 2: I feel like, Reallyquid is the worst because they're they
feel like they're entitled to say what they want. Oh
my god, here we go, I said, right next to it.
Just listen to the entire that was ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Well, they do say a lot of stuff. I agree,
But the will.
Speaker 2: Work for me.
Speaker 1: They did say that. They did. They've been doing that
one for years. You will work for me with assholes.
Speaker 3: But but do you guys just like too, how do
you tune that out? It is it just something where
you get like that. I would think the intensity, if
it were me, would almost make me like tunnel vision
down that all I'm doing is focusing on the ice.
I don't almost hear what's happening out there.
Speaker 6: Kind of it depends on the situation. Yeah, if I
like obviously when we score, like we're gonna go to
our student section. The only guy I can't always turn
out I can't like is the guy sitting across from me.
I always hear him yell in the stand shoot better.
Speaker 5: Always.
Speaker 2: Oh that's a staple from from all the parents on
the travel team. They all they all get that, know it.
Speaker 5: I can't tune that guy out.
Speaker 2: But he had one the other night. I yelled at him.
He hit the goalie somewhere right in the chest, I
go shoot better, and the security guard from Aquinas turned around,
looked up and started laughing.
Speaker 1: Uh, is that the most important voice in your life?
The old man only in that. I mean he's been
there since you laced up your first pair of skates.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say so.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean definitely supportive, definitely didn't get the skills
from him, but he's always there. I mean, I don't
think he hasn't missed. I don't think he's missed one
of my games for other than something he has to
go do, like if it's like he's always driving out
to Buffalo, He's always taking me to these tournaments and yeah, yeah, do.
Speaker 3: You I gotta And do you do the same, Well
you do because you're on the travels too. But the
amount of investment and both in time and resources is
amazing with hockey.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And do you ever just feel I don't even know
what the word would be, uh, just sort of like
appreciative of everything that's going on.
Speaker 1: Do you ever say it? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say I say it.
Speaker 6: But.
Speaker 2: I might drinking.
Speaker 6: I don't think he like he doesn't like I don't know,
it might not come off as like so like sweet,
but like I do like appreciate it, and it's I just.
Speaker 2: Hey, Prick, thank for taking me to Buffalo.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean where it's just like our family, we're
such a joking family. Like anything we'll say, like it'll
be in a joking way. And I think everyone in
the FAMI, you know, was like we'll say one joke
and it'll it'll like we'll say like thank you or something,
but like we'll have to say in like a joking way,
and I'm sure you can say like it comes off
like like really like appreciative.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, he understands that language, his language.
Speaker 2: And I mean that's the thing too, with the fact
that these two have been played together for so long,
and their team has been together for the most part
for so long. All the parents are invested in all
of them. Like I'll see something he's doing and I'll
say something to him. His dad will tell him the
same thing. He will listen to his dad, but he'll
be like, oh, mister Mier said, And then Tyler will
get something from me and he'd be like, you know
what you're talking about. Mister Copley will tell him to
go oh oh yeah, okay, yeah. I mean, this kid
scored the greatest goal I've ever seen in my life
in Detroit this season.
Speaker 1: Wow, from from his.
Speaker 2: Own from his own goal line.
Speaker 7: Off the glass, Yeah yeah, yeah, off the class. Yeah.
Speaker 2: He wanted to just clear one out of the zone
and just wung it down the ice, hit the glass
about halfway down the ice, and he must have a
great Elgima grade. He played the angle perfectly and it
just rolled right. The goalie had no clue was coming,
was just skating around board and board. All of a sudden,
the pucks in the net Wow.
Speaker 5: I don't know if i'd listened to anything.
Speaker 7: Mister Yeah, I don't know. I wouldn't listen to him.
Speaker 6: I kind of yelled yelled at me the other day
at the game, shook his hand. He's like, come on,
shake my hand like a real man. I was like,
this is why I don't cope and say, how do
you ray?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 1: What? What take me to?
Speaker 3: Like a tough loss, all right, a loss that either
the you really want to this is a game you
really really want and it just doesn't go your way.
Speaker 1: The puck isn't finally back of the that for the team.
Speaker 5: I'll do one for high school and I'm doing for travel.
Speaker 6: But I had to say last year semi finals for
high school, Yeah.
Speaker 3: What brings you back to earth after that? Like kind
of helps ground you a little bit?
Speaker 5: I don't I don't know.
Speaker 6: I would just say, I mean, this is a key part.
Like we lost like a bunch of guys last year,
lost two of our like what two of our best
players they went to prop and then obviously losing the
seniors that we've obviously known for a lot of years,
and just how close you are.
Speaker 5: It's just just sad.
Speaker 6: But I honestly would say, you know, like coming going
to school the next day, like you know, knowing that
they're there, like you're still gonna see them every day,
but it's not the same like seeing them on the ice.
Like after the first round movie won. Our big thing
was we'll see you practice on Monday or we'll see
you tomorrow. Like that's all we were saying, like, Hey,
if you guys want to if you guys want to advance,
you want to see each other at practice the next day.
Like you got to dig in, like you have to
put everything on the line and go out there and
just leave it all out there because there could be
no there could be no practice on Monday.
Speaker 3: So right, Yeah, yeah, I mean that's that's interesting that
you look at it that way, because you know, I
was gonna ask you guys, both of you guys, like
if hockey.
Speaker 1: Ended tomorrow, right, and that was kind of it.
Speaker 3: Injury life whatever, whatever the circumstances are, what do you
think it's actually teaching you for real life?
Speaker 7: That's a tough question. Yeah, and I got to think
about that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I don't know if it's teaching you grit.
I mean you mentioned grit earlier. Perseverance in terms of
you know, pushing through to reach a goal. You know, certainly, Tyler,
you've played at pretty elite levels.
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, I mean I guess to teach you that
everything happens for a reason, Like I mean, really, you
don't want to take anything for granted, Like obviously something's
going to happen. You can't really like predict what's going
to happen, right, I know it's hard question, but I'm
just trying to, like.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean I'm even thinking like, let's dumb it
down a little bit in.
Speaker 2: Terms for the public school. Okay, let's dumb it down.
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, no, no, that's not that is
not what I mean at all. I'm talking about things
like balancing your time between you know, the stuff we
had talked about before, or discipline, or maybe you found
a diet and you're like, oh my god, my body
actually a machine and when I give it the right fuel,
it performs so much better. Uh, you know how much
sleep you need, or just things that you may carry
forward your entire life.
Speaker 4: I would say, just never take anything for granted because
it could end that quickly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, have you seen guys careers just stop injury, they're done,
never play again. Too many concussions, maybe that sort of thing. Yeah,
I could see that. What part of being a hockey
player do you think will matter the most when let's
say you're twenty five.
Speaker 1: What are we nine years away from twenty five?
Speaker 7: I would say, like the toughness?
Speaker 1: Yeah, like, and.
Speaker 3: That's what I'm thinking, like when I say, you know,
what did it teach you? Toughness and mindset? Yeah, that's
that's good because there's got to be days you don't
feel like doing it and you push through and do it.
I even think I got to think for working out
a lot of times. You know, there are days I
remember running a lot and I would not want to
When after I just pushed myself through it, I felt
so good afterwards, and you start to see these things.
It's hard when you become an adult because there's a
lot of things coming at you all at once, right,
you know, right now, for you guys, there's a lot
of support, right, I'm sure in terms of you know,
helping you make sure you get your academics and things.
But that's, uh, that's interesting. So what's next then, Tyler
from here?
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, like I said, either try to go
to college for hockey, or if I can't do hockey,
definitely try.
Speaker 1: To do golf, okay in college.
Speaker 6: So one of the two, I mean, I either a
club like club golf in the spring and do Division
three hockey like whatever, try to go somewhere where they
have both. Always like still doing something, like I'm not
like one semester I'm fitting like I'm working out all
the time, practicing hockey every single day, and then the
next semester, I'm.
Speaker 2: Just sniffing pillows.
Speaker 6: Yeah, just rotten in my dorm room, doing nothing Like.
I want to make sure like I'm still up and
active and doing stuff.
Speaker 3: Explain what your day is was I when I was
in college, I would run into people's rooms and I
would jump up on their bed because there were bunks.
I would launch myself up and I would fart on
their pillow and then run out.
Speaker 2: That is not the correct story. Tell them the correct story.
They're old enough.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, oh the guy with the hot moms. Oh
there was a guy whose mom was like really really
smoking hot and.
Speaker 3: Like you couldn't believe I'd never seen a mom that
looked like like all the moms in my world.
Speaker 1: They look like moms. You know, they were worse than
sick come moms. They didn't even look that good.
Speaker 3: And this mom shows up and I'm like, oh my god.
So I found that I got under the kid's skin
when I would go, hey, man's your mom around and
he would get.
Speaker 1: All, come on, man, the's my mom. So then his
mom was up once and I might have had a
couple of drinks and I ran across the hall because
I said, I do his mom had left and I
ran across the hall and I picked up the couch cushion.
They went, oh my god, your mom was here.
Speaker 2: Like they're not even bully would not like that, Like
that's would not fly anymore?
Speaker 1: What it like?
Speaker 3: No, No, none of the guys should ask your brother.
Speaker 2: I'm sure they've done some.
Speaker 1: On a second, none of the guys would find that funny.
Speaker 5: No, I don't think so.
Speaker 7: I don't think that funny.
Speaker 1: Geez, I'm right that set.
Speaker 3: I'm dated, buddy, I'm really dated here. I know your
dad has a quiz I do. Do you want to
just roll into it? We can do it as one big.
Speaker 2: One to one bigger, take a quick break. Whatever you
want to do, let's.
Speaker 3: Do uh let's do one big and then that way
we'll just keep rolling. Because he has a quiz, and
is this for each of the guys, for all three
of you?
Speaker 1: Me as well play as well? Okay, so is this
it's a hockey quiz?
Speaker 3: Okay, well, of course I'm going to know nothing. You
write my name, no, we'll know, you're will know your score.
Speaker 1: But the paper you.
Speaker 2: Got right there?
Speaker 1: Is that?
Speaker 4: Fine?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: What did I do with it?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 1: I took it? Was that? The game? The game?
Speaker 2: All right? Okay, these are hockey related questions, then they're
pretty general knowledge if you can try.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know I won't do well in this, but
that's fine.
Speaker 2: That's fine. You can flip it over. It's empty on
the back. There you go. All right, What medal did
the Soviet Union win in the nineteen eighty Olympics? United States? Stament?
Say one gold? What metal did the Russians win? Next question?
Who are the gyms?
Speaker 1: The gyms? The gyms, gyms?
Speaker 2: Who are they or the gyms?
Speaker 5: I have no clue, I have no idea.
Speaker 1: All right, well, no, write them down. We'll go back
through afterwards.
Speaker 2: Next question, what year did the Toronto maple Leafs last
win the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 1: The Toronto Maple Leafs fellas, who scored the overtime goal
in Game six to clinch the Stanley Cup over the
Buffalo Sabers. Wait you say that again?
Speaker 2: Who scored the overtime goal in Game six to clinch
the Stanley Cup win over the Sabers? And I know
as a father, you know all these answers. I'm very
upset that you have a lot of blanket in your
paper right now.
Speaker 7: I don't I have no ball knowledge.
Speaker 2: Name all four NHL teams that Wayne Gretzky played for
in his career. You cheating, son of a bitch.
Speaker 1: It was cheating, Tyler.
Speaker 2: All four teams that Wayne Gretsky played for in his
NHL career. How many combined Stanley Cups have been won
by teams from New York State?
Speaker 3: How many combined Stanley Cups have been won by teams
from New York State?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Oh, it's combat, man. I think I
got the right answer.
Speaker 2: Wayne Gretzky, captain of the Edmonton Oilers for four of
their five Stanley Cups. Who was the captain for the
fifth Cup?
Speaker 1: Like, how am I going to know this?
Speaker 2: I have what a cup elsewhere.
Speaker 4: I have.
Speaker 2: A couple of a lifetime. Some may say and last,
but not least. How many NHL players were born in
the greater Rochester area Rochester, the city and the surrounding towns.
How many players have been born in Rochester have gone
on to the NHL something You would think that, you know,
kids are aspired to make the ANHL would would probably know.
Speaker 1: Why they're kids. They know what it's about them, not
some old guy who did it already.
Speaker 2: Back to the top. What metal did the Soviet Union
win in the nineteen eighty Olympics?
Speaker 1: I said, bronze, said silver?
Speaker 5: Silver?
Speaker 2: It is silver?
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, I did? I did think silver. And then
I'm like, it feels like a trick.
Speaker 2: Who are the gyms?
Speaker 3: I put down McNamara and uh, I don't know.
Speaker 2: The gyms are a forward line on the show Shorsy.
Oh god, I figured these two would get that one. Yeah,
they both watched it.
Speaker 7: I've never watched it.
Speaker 1: You never watched Jorsy.
Speaker 2: Here's something's wrong with you. What year did the Toronto
Maple Leafs last win the Stanley Cup?
Speaker 1: What'd you say, Tyler?
Speaker 5: Nineteen ninety seven?
Speaker 1: I said to nineteen ninety.
Speaker 2: Nineteen sixty seven.
Speaker 1: All right, we're really six seven, Yes, we're making it
bad here.
Speaker 2: Who scored the overtime goal in Game six to clink
to Stanley Cup over the Buffalo Sabers and then famously saying,
Gloria a few years ago.
Speaker 1: I didn't know. I wrote down I want your dickoff.
Speaker 2: Oh the Russian gay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Russian guy. I figure I had nothing.
Speaker 2: Brett Hall, one of the greatest American born, well Canadian
American born players of all time. Okay, name all four
teams that Wayne Gretzky played for in his career.
Speaker 5: Blues, Rangers, Oilers, Kings.
Speaker 3: Uh, I had the Oilers and the Kings. I couldn't
remember the Rangers. And then was he an owner of
the Coyotes.
Speaker 2: No, he was the coach of the coach.
Speaker 7: Okay, so Kings, Oilers, Canadians, and Rangers.
Speaker 2: Tyler has it correct. It's the Kings, Oilers, Blues and Rangers,
not necessarily in that order. How many combined Stanley Cupps
have been won by teams from New York State's five?
Speaker 1: That's the three.
Speaker 2: It's eight, four for the Rangers, four for the Islanders,
and zero for the Sea.
Speaker 1: And it was zero for the Savers. I knew of
the Islanders.
Speaker 2: I had no idea who captain the Oilers to their
fifth Stanley Cup?
Speaker 5: Mark Messier said, Wwayne Gretzky, that was the question.
Speaker 2: You obviously didn't listen to the question. Wayne Gretzky captained
the Oilers for their first four Stanley Cups. Who was
the captain on five?
Speaker 3: I have no clue that I don't know, I wrote,
I question marks.
Speaker 2: He is correct, it is Mark Messier.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: All right, Tyler coming back and how many players made
it to the NHL from being born in the Greater
Rochester area?
Speaker 1: Jack, what did you say?
Speaker 2: Said? Two?
Speaker 1: What did you say?
Speaker 6: I said three because I didn't I didn't know if
you were going to count Syracuse for I was talking.
Speaker 5: But I think the answer.
Speaker 2: Greater Rochester area would with Syracuse.
Speaker 5: I think I think it's two.
Speaker 2: Four, I said four, it's eleven? Whoa Marty Reasoner, Okay,
Cole Bardreau, Brian Gianta, Yeah, Steve gianta, Ryan Callahan, Shane Prince,
Rory Fitzpatrick, Jason Bontig, Derrek Whitmore, David Ferrence, and Edward Lee.
Speaker 1: I don't know Edward Lee.
Speaker 2: I don't either.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's interesting.
Speaker 3: Wow, all right, I didn't know that we were that
rich of a hockey that's a lot.
Speaker 1: It feels like a lot.
Speaker 3: Is that a lot it's going to I mean playing
at the highest level you can play.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's for our size of the town.
I mean we're not a small town, but we're not
a huge We're not like a New York city.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Where do most of the best players come from?
Speaker 2: Minnesota? Canada?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Lately it's been overseas.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay. Is there a chance to play overseas for you?
Oh god, I don't know that the world.
Speaker 2: It's a great way to do see the world and
not be in the army.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And like you know, need some Swede one of
these I.
Speaker 2: Don't remember which one it was on this list. It's
been playing in Russia for probably five or six, the
last five or six years, and looks like he's having
pretty decent success over there, really playing in Russia.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, yeah, I mean, hey, if you if you're
all right, your coach played in Europe for a while.
Speaker 1: Did he? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 3: And are they making as a decent living I don't know,
probably enough to survive. Yeah, And the love of the game, right,
and then you know, there's certainly a lot of experience.
Speaker 1: And I don't think.
Speaker 2: You're making millions, but you're probably making thousands.
Speaker 3: Probably Gionta man God, I mean he made some money
when he was with h.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Montreal first American? Was he the first American
or the second American?
Speaker 3: I think he was the first American born captain. Yeah,
I thought so too, but somewhere someone was correcting me.
I and I certainly have no hockey knowledge at all.
But it's interesting to talk to him. We love to
hear him because he was so about diet. Yeah, like
and he said, every time I see my kids grab
a sleeve of oreos, I think you have no idea
what you're doing too.
Speaker 2: We talked about that with him, how how it's changed,
and you know, used to be you'd have the Russians
with their vodka and the yeah steel child Burden darts
inthing between periods drinking. And now it's you come up
the ice, you get a proteins movie. And yeah, it's
a whole different, whole, different game, whole different animal.
Speaker 3: Right, It's it is it's a and and and I
guess in a in a pretty good way.
Speaker 1: That all that's uh, all that is going on.
Speaker 3: Fella's anything else you wanted to add? Any shout outs
you want to give to anybody? Ladies listening, I mean,
I don't want to embarrass you, but oh there's somebody
you know, Valentine's Day is coming up.
Speaker 7: I got nothing.
Speaker 1: What do you mean? He got nothing?
Speaker 2: Nothing, No coach, no mentor no anybody. Thanks coach Samino,
Thanks mom and dad.
Speaker 7: Thanks mom and dad.
Speaker 1: All right, Tyler's not going to say it. Thanks.
Speaker 3: I mean, to me, most people your age are just
figuring out what they want to do right and kind
of where they want to go. And it seems like
you're doing that while also being evaluated, timed, scored on
hit all that. You know, it's a lot that hockey
is to me, always look like the sport. You had
to be the most athletic at You had to be
able to have great balance.
