1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:01,040
Speaker 1: Dan Miller.

2
00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 2: He is into his twenty first season boxing calling Detroit

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 2: Lions football on the radio, and also his talent and

4
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:13,319
Speaker 2: sports director for Detroit's Fox affiliate. He's the best and

5
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 2: he joins us. Now, Hey, Dan, Paul Allen, what's going

6
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 2: on with your brother?

7
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: Things good?

8
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 3: Pete always good man. Great to hear your voice. PS.

9
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 2: Likewise, almost thirty years working the Detroit sports scene for you,

10
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 2: is it more than thirty?

11
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 3: It's twenty eight this year?

12
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 2: Okay, almost thirty? Almost three decades working that Detroit sports scene.

13
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 2: Who was the most popular team in the state when

14
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,160
Speaker 2: you started at box two in ninety seven?

15
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 1: And is it the same now?

16
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 3: So? When I started in ninety seven, the Wings were

17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 3: in between their back to back championships, so they owned

18
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: the town at that point. And I would say, now,

19
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 3: when baseball and football are good, I think this is

20
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 3: a baseball in football town. It's nothing against basketball, nothing

21
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 3: against the Wings, but just Tiger roots run deep. And

22
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 3: I think Lions maybe because of the history and the

23
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 3: hope that people have and the emotion they have tied

24
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 3: to this, I still think it's the shield in the

25
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 3: NFL that rules, as I do in so many cities

26
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 3: and then just that this is such a strong baseball

27
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 3: town that I feel like I'd put them one two.

28
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 3: But believe me, when the Wings were winning and the

29
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 3: Pistons won their championship and oh four, I mean they

30
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 3: were rock stars. Man, it was something else. So I'd

31
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 3: say for longevity, if you ask me just to rate it,

32
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 3: I'd say football baseball are one to two. And then

33
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 3: you know, not to take anything away from the success

34
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 3: that the other organizations have had, because man, those runs

35
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 3: were something else. The parades were amazing and everybody just

36
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 3: wrapped their arms around them.

37
00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: All right.

38
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 2: So where does Michigan football rank in the pantheon of popularity?

39
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 2: Because I mean back you know, with the Big House man,

40
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 2: back to the bo Sham Beckler days, Desmond Howard and

41
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,399
Speaker 2: the Heisman, Po's and everything. I mean, Michigan Wolverines football.

42
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 2: It's super popular there. I know that, But like, where

43
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 2: would you rank it in the pantheon.

44
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 3: It's hard because there's an automatic division right at the start,

45
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 3: because you have half the people that are Michigan State,

46
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 3: right and they can't stand anything about Michigan, So you

47
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 3: don't have that division when it comes to the Tigers,

48
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 3: the Red Wings, of the Pistons or alliance. But you

49
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 3: have an automatic no way for a great percentage of

50
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 3: the people just because they have ties to Michigan State

51
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 3: or maybe Central Michigan, Western Michigan, East to Michigan, whatever

52
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 3: it might be. But there's not the complete buy in

53
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 3: because there's no competition for our professional teams, but they're

54
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 3: strong competition when it comes to Michigan. Look, it's big.

55
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 3: I would rank it behind though, if you're just saying

56
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 3: just pure number popularity, I'd rank it behind the pro

57
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 3: team just because you have so many people that would

58
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 3: just never fall in line with amazing blue championship because

59
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 3: they're just never going to appreciate anything about them, just

60
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: because the rivalry.

61
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 2: All Right, down memory lane, we go with Dan Miller,

62
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 2: the radio play by play voice for the Detroit Lions,

63
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 2: works with Lomas Brown, and going down memory lane is

64
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 2: fine with you, ma'am, other side of the equation. Eight?

65
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: All right, eight? What was it like calling a winless season?

66
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 3: You know, it's Jim brand Satter and I worked that together,

67
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 3: and we had we had a saying as we got

68
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 3: into that thing, and it became apparent that this was

69
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 3: going to be beautiful and we would look at each

70
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 3: other and Thieble must have said it a thousand times.

71
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 3: We would look at each other and we'd just say,

72
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 3: call the next play, Just call the next play. And

73
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: it was you know, people say to me, how did

74
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 3: you do those games when they're zero to sixteen? And

75
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 3: I think you'll appreciate this. The game wasn't the hard

76
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 3: part because there's something happening in front of you, and

77
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: all you're doing is saying, here's what happened, here's why

78
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 3: it happened, and moving out of the next play, you've

79
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 3: got a rhythm to it. The hardest part was everything

80
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 3: you had to do during the week, right because like you,

81
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 3: I have to turn out a lot of you know,

82
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 3: content during the week, and you're sitting down with coaches

83
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 3: and players that are absolutely miserable. They don't have any

84
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 3: answers to the questions that you're asking them. If they did,

85
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 3: they'd do something about it. And they're hearing the same

86
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 3: things over and over again. And just to dive deeper

87
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 3: into that, these are men that have dedicated their lives

88
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 3: to something and every week they're being told and endeavor,

89
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 3: you're not good enough and you're failing what you're trying

90
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 3: to do in terms of winning and losing, and it

91
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: was that that was the hardest part to me anytime

92
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 3: you're in a bad season. Look, the game's not easy,

93
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 3: but it's a story that kind of takes care of

94
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 3: itself and let it develop. You tell the story, and

95
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 3: then you sign off and you're done. The hard part

96
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 3: is during the week when you're sitting down and nobody

97
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 3: wants to laugh, nobody has to smile, nobody wants to

98
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 3: to you know, buy into, you know, having a good

99
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 3: time and a little levity and doing something that fans

100
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 3: will enjoy. That's the hardest part. And that's what I

101
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 3: remember about Oait was just dealing with the coaches and

102
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 3: the players when they were just going through it.

103
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: Man, that is so accurately stated. Dawn Memory Lane.

104
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: We go with Dan Miller box for the for the Lions.

105
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 2: All right, let's see a couple more here then we'll

106
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 2: get into the current team. Uh the three oh four

107
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: NBA Playoffs? Okay, uh the so yeah, the the the

108
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: Pistons won the championship and Chauncey Billups was the MVP.

109
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: How about how about this gambling bit that busted out

110
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 2: involving Chauncey, are you kidding me?

111
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's what we all said. Did not

112
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 3: see that coming. I mean, obviously we have known about

113
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 3: Rosier Malik Beasley, who's a Piston, has been involved in this,

114
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 3: although not charged, right, But Chauncey, I mean, it was like,

115
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 3: that's one of the coolest dudes I've ever been around.

116
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 3: Just watching him take that ride and being part of

117
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 3: that covering those teams, it just I don't even know

118
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 3: how to put my shock into words at seeing him

119
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 3: and disappointment and seeing him involved in that. And look,

120
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is yet. He deserves his

121
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 3: innocence until proven guilty. But I mean when you start

122
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 3: hearing mafia and fixed poker games and things like that,

123
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 3: it's just it's nuts. And the question that comes to

124
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 3: mind is why. But he would not be anywhere on

125
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,919
Speaker 3: a list of people that I've covered, I would have

126
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 3: said would have been involved in something like that. And

127
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: again we don't know the whole story, but to the

128
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 3: shock value of his name coming out in connection with that,

129
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 3: I think this whole city who absolutely revers him was

130
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 3: rocked well.

131
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: And and you, you and I are close to the

132
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 2: same age. You know, we're both from the the Maryland Washington,

133
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 2: DC area, and we're old schoolers. I mean, it's tough

134
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 2: to shock us with with with I mean because we've

135
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 2: just seen under heard so much. Shoot, we we lived

136
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 2: in or around Washington, d C. When Marion Barry was

137
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: the mayor. I always love that one. It took me

138
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 2: a while.

139
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 4: No, we saw some things with that, no doubt, and

140
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 4: it's yeah, but it's it's I think when it just

141
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 4: comes completely out of left field and ta, it's not

142
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 4: even it's not.

143
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 3: Even this this this basketball fixing that we're talking about,

144
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 3: which if you read the some of the court documents,

145
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 3: he may be involved in as well, but it's it's

146
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 3: just you start reading my and mob and New York

147
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 3: families and involved in an illegal poker It's like, no, how, why,

148
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 3: and it just yeah, I just I just think it's

149
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 3: one of those things that that we wake up one

150
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 3: morning and see something come across Twitter and you're like,

151
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 3: what in the world, And that one, that one took

152
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 3: a couple of clicks to read through to figure out

153
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 3: and still not knowing, but to figure out, Wow, how

154
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 3: in the heck did this guy get involved in that?

155
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 3: And again we will more facts will come out on that,

156
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 3: but but overall, like you said, just one you did

157
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 3: not see coming and one that just kind of smacks

158
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: and you are just you were Wow.

159
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: Yeah I didn't.

160
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: I didn't even know La Closa Nostro was still a

161
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 2: thing fuck until after that home popped out. It's crazy,

162
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: all right, Dann the man on the fan. The Lions

163
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 2: absolutely can get to the Super Bowl this year. You're

164
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 2: getting your safeties back for Sunday, aren't you. And that

165
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: defense has been pretty good, you know, for the most

166
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 2: part this year, despite being down a bunch of players

167
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 2: as usual at times. But getting those safeties back, that's

168
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 2: good for you guys, isn't it.

169
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 3: It is not sure about Kirby. I didn't practice yesterday,

170
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 3: so we'll know more about him as we get towards

171
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 3: the weekend. That knee has been bothering him. He had

172
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 3: to leave the game last time out, then came back

173
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 3: and then or last time he played and then came

174
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 3: back and they did not play against Tampa, So I

175
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 3: don't know about him. Obviously, Branch being in suspension, he

176
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 3: should be back, Terry and Arnold should be back, so

177
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 3: that secondary starting to get some guys back. It would

178
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 3: be big for them if Avonte Maddox is ready to go,

179
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 3: because you can slide him to either Nickel or the

180
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 3: other safety if Kirby's not there. So I think it'll

181
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 3: look more like what we expect than what they had

182
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 3: out there against Tampa. And credit those guys they acquitted

183
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 3: themselves well. But look, overall, this defense has been good

184
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 3: against the run for several years now. That hasn't changed.

185
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 3: They're better against the pass if you just look at

186
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 3: their raw numbers the past couple of years, they've been

187
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 3: like twenty seventh or thirtieth in terms of passing yards

188
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 3: given up, which can be at times misleading, but it

189
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 3: was also pretty consistent that they were down at the

190
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 3: bottom of the league. And then you measure that with

191
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,839
Speaker 3: being a top ten defense in in terms of points

192
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 3: given up, and you kind of scratch your head and say,

193
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 3: what do I do with this? And I'm not sure,

194
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 3: but they're taking the ball away more than they did

195
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 3: last year, so doing things better than they did a

196
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 3: year ago, and I think they feel good about that.

197
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 3: Here's the thing they're going to Unlike last year, when

198
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 3: they were not just losing guys, but losing guys for

199
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 3: the season. DJ Reid will be back, Davenport will be back,

200
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 3: Rodriguez is coming back. So most of the guys that

201
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 3: they've lost over the next three to four weeks will

202
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 3: be coming back. And I think that's one thing that

203
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 3: has them excited is just that, you know, after what

204
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 3: they went through last year where guys were hurt and gone,

205
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 3: this year there's hope that, you know, as they get

206
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 3: into December and you don't know what's gonna happen between

207
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 3: now and then, they could be back at her near

208
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 3: full strength and that would certainly be different than it

209
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,719
Speaker 3: was a year ago where they were just kind of

210
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 3: spitting oil down the stretch.

211
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 2: So with your squad, Dan, what's what's dramatically or just

212
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 2: what's different about the team now compared to the one

213
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 2: that's lost opening weekend to the Lambeau.

214
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 3: That was just a game that they didn't finish anything.

215
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 3: If you look at that game, they gave up I

216
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 3: think it was the first four to third down conversions

217
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 3: to Green Bay's offense, and they had them right where

218
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 3: they wanted them. They had them third and six, third

219
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 3: and nine, third and ten and couldn't get off the field.

220
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 3: And then I think they had a streak of Lake

221
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 3: six in row. I think Green Bay might have finished

222
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 3: like four out of ten on third down something like that.

223
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 3: But point being, they started poorly, then they were getting

224
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 3: off the field, and then offensively they got into the

225
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 3: red zone a couple and just didn't finish. They didn't

226
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 3: get in the end zone. They just weren't doing what

227
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 3: they normally do. And the offensive line was just not

228
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 3: good that day. The communication was bad. I got two

229
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 3: offensive linemen in the booths with me and they'res pointing out,

230
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 3: you got guys going in the wrong direction here. They're

231
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 3: not playing cohesively as a unit, and really credit to them.

232
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 3: It kind of flipped after that and that offensive line,

233
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 3: their communication improved. They got better. They've just been That

234
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 3: game was just kind of a one off to the

235
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 3: mistakes that they made. And you know, offensively, I think

236
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 3: they tell you the last two weeks they feel like

237
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 3: they've left some things out there, but still third in

238
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 3: the league in scoring, and defensively, they've started taking the

239
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 3: ball away and giving it to the offense short fields

240
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 3: and giving them more opportunities. And when this team does that,

241
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 3: they're hard to beat, because when that offense gets rolling,

242
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 3: it can be tough to stop. So I just think

243
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 3: that was that was a strange game where you could

244
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:06,079
Speaker 3: see the makings of something, but they just didn't finish anything.

245
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 3: All right.

246
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 2: So Aiden Hutchinson, who who's one of the two best

247
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: defensive ends in the NFL along with Miles Garrett, he

248
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: gets this nice extension, all right, big fat extension.

249
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: So I'm like, cool.

250
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 2: You know, the Brad Holmes and the Lions are just

251
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 2: really good about compensating their own before. Like in Dallas,

252
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 2: things get done with Michael Parsons, ce d Lamb and

253
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott and so on. It that's rarely the case

254
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 2: in the Motor City. But you know that's money on

255
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 2: top of Jared Goff and Aman Ross, Saint Brown and

256
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 2: so on. They're just a list of those who have

257
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 2: gotten extended. Okay, that's cool, that's good business. The thing

258
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 2: that gets me, Dan, how in the heck are the

259
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 2: Lions still twenty four million under the cap with all

260
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,719
Speaker 2: this money that's been dispersed. Are you what kind of

261
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 2: a Ponzi scheme you're running up there?

262
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: Well, I think if you look at the numbers, they

263
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 3: start to kick in a lot of these contracts next year.

264
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 3: So there's gonna be some of mastics that need to

265
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: be done here between now and when these contracts all

266
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 3: start to you know, really mature and come into Big Bucks.

267
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 3: And I'm confident they have a plan on how to

268
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 3: do it. I couldn't tell you what it is, but

269
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 3: it is. You know, guys have pointed out this morning

270
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 3: on Twitter with this contract at aid and decide it's

271
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 3: nearly a billion dollars in second contract and there's a

272
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 3: couple things there. One. Yeah, I do think at some

273
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 3: point this is going to be difficult to maintain as

274
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 3: all these contracts start to kick in and you still

275
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 3: have Laporta, you still have branch that at some point

276
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 3: will need to be extended. But I think the thing

277
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 3: that feels good here Pa is just that you didn't

278
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 3: used to get second contracts in Detroit because the guys

279
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 3: that you drafted just flamed out and weren't deserving of them.

280
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 3: And what we've seen now is this regime has come

281
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 3: in and built something. They've developed these players, they're keeping

282
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 3: their players. There's an emotional attachment to these players, not

283
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 3: just because they wear the uniform, but because they're really good.

284
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 3: I think you can look at at the bulk of

285
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 3: these guys too, and say, you know what an a'min

286
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 3: Ross Saint Brown, A Kirby Joseph and Aiden Hutchinson, a

287
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 3: Panay Suol, Jared Goff who's obviously a trade but got

288
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 3: an extension as well these guys. And let me throw

289
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: Jack Hambellton there as well as a guy that's going

290
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 3: to need an extension at some point. But these guys

291
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 3: are added near the top of their position groups. I mean,

292
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 3: these are really good players. These aren't, you know, second

293
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 3: contracts that are being given out just because they're here.

294
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 3: They're second contracts given out because these guys have proven

295
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 3: themselves and that's just new here. We haven't had anybody

296
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 3: that's done this with this football team in a long time.

297
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 3: So it's exciting. I Like, you wonder how they're going

298
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 3: to keep all this stuff together when these contracts really

299
00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 3: start getting into some of the bigger numbers. But I

300
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 3: think these guys have earned equity in terms of having

301
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 3: a plan and believing in their vision and we'll see

302
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 3: how it all works out. But it's fun, it's exciting.

303
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 3: It's nice to see how other teams have done it

304
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 3: the right way and be a part of that now

305
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 3: and it's been really cool to kind of sit back

306
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 3: and watch these guys operate.

307
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 2: Time for two more with Dan Miller play by play

308
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 2: voice on the radio for the Detroit Lions, also on

309
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 2: air talent and sports director for Fox two in the

310
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 2: Motor City twenty one years calling Lions football.

311
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: That's really cool. What makes Dan Campbell a good coach.

312
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 3: Consistency. He doesn't change. He is the same guy if

313
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 3: you're talking to him in the corner drinking a beer,

314
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 3: if you're standing in the lobby of a hotel, or

315
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 3: if he's addressing his team. And I think the players

316
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 3: appreciate that there is no hitting agenda with him. He

317
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 3: will tell you exactly where you stand and there's a

318
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 3: trust factor that builds up in that. And on top

319
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 3: of that, and I think this is where a lot

320
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 3: of people got him wrong. It's really really smart football coach.

321
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 3: And he has an ability to put a staff together

322
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 3: that can develop players. And I think that that shouldn't

323
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 3: be lost because you can. It's easy to say draft well,

324
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 3: but it doesn't matter if you don't bring him in

325
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 3: and teach him how to play in this league, because

326
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 3: guys don't show up knowing that you have to teach

327
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 3: them what it is to be a pro and what

328
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,439
Speaker 3: it is to be a pro in your system, and

329
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 3: he has done a great job of hiring coaches that

330
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 3: have done that. Just look at all the contracts we

331
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 3: just talked about. Those are homegrown guys that have come

332
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 3: in and learned what it is to be in this league.

333
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,479
Speaker 3: But he is just and one thing that stands out

334
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 3: to PA's got a wonderful ability to understand exactly what

335
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 3: his team needs, whether it's a kick in the butt,

336
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 3: whether he needs to let loose on the rains a

337
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 3: little bit and just kind of let him, you know, coast.

338
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 3: He gets them ready to play. They don't have very

339
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 3: many off weeks where you say, man, what happened to

340
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,959
Speaker 3: them this week? Everybody has them, but more often than not,

341
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 3: they're ready to go. He just has a way of

342
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 3: feeling what his team needs to get them ready for

343
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 3: that week. And again I'll throw this stat out there.

344
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,639
Speaker 3: They have not lost two games in a row in

345
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 3: fifty one games October thirtieth, twenty twenty two, and no

346
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 3: team in the league is close to that. Has an

347
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 3: ability I think, to not let anything beat him twice

348
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,959
Speaker 3: to get his teams ready to bounce back, and I

349
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 3: just think there's a you know that to me, says

350
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 3: a lot about him and his ability to work week

351
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 3: to week and understand what they need.

352
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, Bocks, they lost to Washington in the

353
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 2: playoffs than Green Bay week one, So you mean regular.

354
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: Season, right, I'm not going with the Tiger Woods slam here.

355
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 3: I'm just talking regular games, week week to week.

356
00:18:58,119 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: Yep.

357
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 3: Okay, go back to back losses yep.

358
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 2: So that so clearly that needs to get into the

359
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 2: radio call here between the coin toss and the boom.

360
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 2: So October thirtieth, twenty twenty two, that's the last time

361
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 2: fifty one consecutive you said.

362
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 3: Fifty one consecutive game, losing two in a row.

363
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: Yep, that's terrific.

364
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,199
Speaker 2: All right, last one, what kind of reception do you

365
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 2: do you expect JJ McCarthy to get?

366
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 3: Oh, good question. You know Michigan guys normally get some applause. Again,

367
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,239
Speaker 3: it's it's divided, so you're gonna have some people that

368
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 3: are that are spartans in there that don't care for

369
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 3: him at all. There will certainly be respect there, but

370
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 3: I would say probably lukewarm is my guest, But there

371
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 3: will be. There will be plenty of Wolverines fans that

372
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 3: have an appreciation for the fact that this guy brought

373
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 3: a national championship to them and that will never be forgotten.

374
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 3: He is. You know, when you do that, you are

375
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 3: part of the fabric of you know, a city and

376
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 3: a state, and you know that will never change. But

377
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 3: it just goes back to what I said, there is

378
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 3: a division there of people that will never ever, you know,

379
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 3: really appreciate that for what it is.

380
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, unless it's Aiden Hutchinson, who's getting you fifteen sacks

381
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 2: at key times, right.

382
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 3: I guess he said. He texted JJ after he got

383
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 3: drafted and said he promised not to drive me to

384
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 3: the ground, but kind of roll over softly on him.

385
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 2: If you get the pants on him, You're fantastic. I

386
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,920

407
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 5: Penultimate segment is pa would say nine to noon. It's

408
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 5: eleven thirty one am, and I mentioned it during Vikes bites.

409
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 5: But you know, we turn the page and change our

410
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 5: faces and all of these things. The team's three and

411
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 5: four and the most recent edition of our favorite football

412
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 5: team was an absolute throttling at the hands of Justin

413
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 5: Herbert and the Chargers and Harbaughts so far a Thursday ago.

414
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 5: I get that, but we do have to kind of

415
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 5: remind ourselves here is that at one point it was

416
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 5: a season.

417
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: At one point we were full of optimism.

418
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 5: At one point on the front end of the season,

419
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 5: we were excited to see the plan laid out. The

420
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 5: plan would be revitalizing the offensive line, adding some defensive pieces,

421
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 5: and setting the stage moving on from a Sam Darnold,

422
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 5: setting the stage for a first round pick from a

423
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 5: couple seasons ago, now healthy and now active and now available.

424
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 5: And we wanted to see what things would play out,

425
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 5: how things would play out in twenty twenty five. So

426
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 5: I just feel like in some ways we have to

427
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 5: remind ourselves, as JJ the twenty twenty five edition, JJ

428
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 5: McCarthy take two starts to unfold this week via practice

429
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 5: and in the end him starting at Ford Field on Sunday,

430
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 5: that there are some things that we were to be

431
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 5: excited about into Week one at Soldier Field and should

432
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 5: be excited about seeing Sunday in Detroit. And I want

433
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 5: to start here the kid using his legs PA first.

434
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 2: Down for the Vikings at the Bears twenty seven McCarthy

435
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 2: play action out of the shot that looks for run

436
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 2: to the right, turns up the middle of the twenty

437
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 2: dives ahead to the fifteen and the athletic prowess of j. J.

438
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 2: McCarthy on display with a run of twelve and a

439
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 2: first down for the Vikings.

440
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 6: Paul, that's the first step I think we've seen with

441
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 6: both Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason in the game, so

442
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 6: both running backs.

443
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 1: As we get into.

444
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 6: This red zone in the backfield at.

445
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 5: The same time and before the season, and we say

446
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 5: a lot of things nine to new and you had

447
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,239
Speaker 5: thrown this out there, Pa, kind of the idea of

448
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 5: what you know, some mandates, not even mandates that's too strong,

449
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 5: but the idea of the kid QB using his legs,

450
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 5: and you threw out a number three first downs for instance,

451
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 5: over the course of a game. You want to see

452
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 5: maybe that the Vikings moving the chains, let's say three

453
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 5: times with JJ's legs, and we could argue, well, I mean,

454
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 5: maybe it's closer to two or maybe it's close to four.

455
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: We can do that all day. That's not the point.

456
00:23:55,680 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 5: The point is the athleticism that JJ McCarthy presents was

457
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 5: one of the part of the allure of getting to

458
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 5: see the kid QB handle his business and do his thing.

459
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 5: And when we got to see it, albeit in a vacuum,

460
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 5: and frankly opening night at Soldier Field when we got

461
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 5: to see the kid using his legs.

462
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: You heard that highlight. There some good things happen.

463
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 2: Thirdly, one from the Bear's fourteen McCarthy out of the shotgun,

464
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 2: milking a three point lead.

465
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 1: It is a run pass option.

466
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 2: McCarthy takes off to the right stand to.

467
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: The stunner steps at the five touchdown.

468
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 2: Peace JJ McCarthy.

469
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 5: So as I look forward to Ford Field and as

470
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 5: I get really really pumped up to see number nine

471
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 5: on the field again, there is one part of this

472
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 5: the athleticism, that element of this offense at the QB

473
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 5: position that we have not had seeing that as an

474
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 5: option again. No, I don't want to see him running

475
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 5: for his life. We want to see poise. We want

476
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 5: to se he improved play up front in front of him.

477
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 5: That includes the bookended tackles. But the athleticism is something

478
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,360
Speaker 5: that I think we have to start to be pumped

479
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 5: up to see if that is real and it can

480
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 5: come to fruition again.

481
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 2: I can't wait to watch him play a game after

482
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 2: game after game after game, and that's something I've said

483
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:27,199
Speaker 2: the last few days is I mean, who knows what

484
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 2: he's going to be when he gets twenty to thirty

485
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 2: starts underneath that belt. Yep, But what do we know now?

486
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 2: We know, we see him, we like him, and then

487
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,239
Speaker 2: he's gone, and then we see him again and we

488
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 2: like him.

489
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 1: Then he's gone. So that just has to stop. That

490
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 1: just has to stop.

491
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 2: Indeed, and nobody's saying somebody so he's a He's a

492
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 2: hockey kid, So the toughness is not a problem. I

493
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 2: don't believe in luck, so therefore I'm not going to

494
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 2: put him on bad luck. But the facts are is

495
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,159
Speaker 2: saw you against the Raiders, dug it, Oh what happened?

496
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 2: And Falcons game probably everybody probably could have done better.

497
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: Oh wow, you're gone again.

498
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 2: So that's first and foremost for me, getting out of

499
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 2: the game the right way in one piece and playing

500
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 2: in the Ravens game. Now, from an athletics standpoint, that

501
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 2: that is, I mean, that's part of the reason that

502
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 2: you drafted him is you're able to move with him naturally,

503
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 2: he's comfortable doing it. You can call plays and dial

504
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 2: things up like that masterpiece that they had on the

505
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 2: on the Reid option to win the Bears game. It

506
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 2: was a phenomenal play call and phenomenal execution, not only

507
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 2: by McCarthy, but I think it was Jefferson. Maybe somebody

508
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 2: was down Hackinson, somebody was down by the goal line.

509
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 5: With a great block. It may have been Hawkinson. Actually,

510
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,239
Speaker 5: that just kind of helped molde him into the end

511
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 5: zone to just blocking the bleep out of somebody. So

512
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 5: that covenant was good. Well, here we go again, all right,

513
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 5: And it doesn't need to be pedaled to the medal

514
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 5: right out of the gate. People can have whatever expectations

515
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 5: they want.

516
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 2: That's great. It may not mess with mine, but that

517
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 2: doesn't mean mine or right. But my expectations for McCarthy

518
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 2: beginning now is first and foremost, get out of this

519
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 2: thing alive. Secondly, run for some first downs. Thirdly, show

520
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 2: the NFL and Dan Campbell that wow.

521
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: I mean when you when you when you.

522
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 2: Had Wentz or when you had some of these other guys,

523
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 2: you never did that off the boot leg and it works.

524
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 2: And I bet you when we see you later in

525
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: the season, you're probably going to try to pass out

526
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: of it.

527
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: Okay.

528
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 2: So things that we haven't seen that we know we

529
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 2: will like, and and and response when things go poorly

530
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 2: to wit was a Tyreek Stevenson whomever he threw the

531
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 2: ball to in the Bears game and it went for

532
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 2: a pick six. Oh, Nashan Naseean Wright, Are you kidding me?

533
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: Nashan?

534
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 3: Right?

535
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: Wow? All right?

536
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 2: Three?

537
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: Two?

538
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 2: How did he bounce back? He won the game? So

539
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 2: oh wow, the kid did that? Yeah, he just must

540
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,479
Speaker 2: have been devastated. First NFL star, Yeah he was, but

541
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 2: he owned the whole fourth quarter, was better than every

542
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 2: player on the field, and he won the game pretty

543
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 2: much by himself. So he has that to him, but

544
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 2: he also has the pick six to him.

545
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 1: So you got to start. You need to start somewhere.

546
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 2: And the athletic part is something that the ankle has

547
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: to be right to be able to do it. And

548
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 2: it's going to be part of the calling card for

549
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy noon Sunday boom.

550
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, And we talked about it earlier.

551
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 5: Hyperbolic, hyperaccurate, just kind of where Jefferson, justin Jefferson's role

552
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 5: lies in all of this. Certainly best wide receiver, one

553
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 5: of the best offensive players in the NFL, and you

554
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 5: want to see that connection.

555
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson one catch four yards, he goes in motion

556
00:28:58,280 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 2: to the left.

557
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: He's changed his by the way, they're now purple. McCarthy

558
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: back to.

559
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 2: Pass the rose left, caught JJ. Make that caught Justin

560
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 2: Jefferson from JJ at the eighteen yard line. That's a

561
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 2: connection of seventeen yards in a first down. The Vikings

562
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 2: are inside the red zone, and it's hard to believe.

563
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 5: I think it was later that drive he would find

564
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 5: his only touchdown of the year.

565
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 2: We have a Tim Jones sighting wide receiver left, three

566
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 2: receivers right, third and five from the Bears thirteen Chicago

567
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 2: rush is four.

568
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: McCarthy's great drop to the end zone and tuckdown.

569
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson catches JJ McCarthy's first National Football League touchdown.

570
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: And it's seventeen twelve.

571
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 5: So I want to see I want to see nine

572
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 5: to eighteen for six, right. I want to see Jefferson

573
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 5: in the end zone. But it goes back to what

574
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 5: we were talking about earlier, the connectivity of him, JJ

575
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 5: McCarthy and these receivers.

576
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 1: Will he have a favorite?

577
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 5: Will it be I'm going to find my star Justin

578
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 5: Jefferson and it's going to be ten, twelve, thirteen targets

579
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,239
Speaker 5: or will it be Jordan Addison in the chemistry that

580
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 5: the two built up during training camp is at a

581
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 5: function of coverage, et cetera.

582
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 1: You've talked about Hawkinson.

583
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 5: That the key for me what I want to see

584
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 5: on Sunday, something I'm excited about. I want to see

585
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 5: this offense on time, in in rhythm. The reason I

586
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 5: picked that particular reception to Jefferson is, albeit the first

587
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 5: two games it was tough finding anything offensively that was

588
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 5: on time and in rhythm. But when it was, it

589
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 5: looked so damn good. Pa and his ability to find

590
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 5: even opposite side of the field to the boundary, his

591
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 5: ability to make those throws in small doses shined through.

592
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,719
Speaker 5: And so that's something specifically against the Lions. If we're

593
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 5: going to have to keep pace with these kiddies on

594
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 5: time in rhythm.

595
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: I want to see that from number nine and I'm

596
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: pumped to see it.

597
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 2: Well, Dan Miller, they're played by play voice. I didn't

598
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 2: think Terry on Arnold the Alabama corner, Well, I think

599
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 2: he's fast, he's good, he's all right. I mean, we'll see,

600
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 2: he still has a lot of career in front of him.

601
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 2: I didn't think he was coming back this week, Miller

602
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 2: made us sound like he might. Yeah, kitty kitty, Okay, Niah,

603
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,959
Speaker 2: kitty kitty ball should be going your way about fifteen

604
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 2: times during the course of the game. If you're coming

605
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 2: back from an injury, this coaching staff picks on you

606
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 2: until you show it.

607
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: You don't need to be picked on. Yeah.

608
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 2: See Dray Greenlaw. A few years ago for the Niners

609
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 2: on Monday Night football man hadn't played for like a month.

610
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 2: O'Connell put him on six consecutive shallow crosses, running across

611
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 2: the field from the numbers to the numbers. He kept

612
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 2: getting beat. So I don't care who your quarterback is

613
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 2: in that situation. That's how you play the game. That's

614
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 2: how you push the envelope, and that's how you play

615
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 2: the game. You make the hurt guys who just came back,

616
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 2: you make them make plays. I would fully expect the

617
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 2: Lions to run at Van Ginkle. Why wouldn't they? Why

618
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 2: wouldn't you put If Van Ginkle plays, why wouldn't you put?

619
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 2: You know it's Van Ginkle generally plays the piney sool

620
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 2: side of the equation. All right, so you probably don't

621
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 2: need this, But why wouldn't you put Dan Skipper next

622
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 2: to Piney Sool and stretch right to Jamiir Gibbs and

623
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 2: just smash Van Ginkele.

624
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you do that? He hasn't played in a month.

625
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: I would.

626
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 2: So all of that is going to come to roost

627
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:30,719
Speaker 2: this weekend. Yeah, and all of that plays into what

628
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 2: McCarthy can or can't do. You know, he's going back

629
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 2: to Michigan he played. I think it's forty five minutes

630
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 2: to an hour. I think it's northwest from Detroit at

631
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 2: ann Arbor at the Big House. Uh, he's never played

632
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 2: at Ford Field. I'm not even sure he's been to

633
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 2: Ford Field, but I know he hasn't played there. So

634
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 2: this is going to be big for McCarthy. You know,

635
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 2: it's family friends, the return bally Hood, you got on

636
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 2: the call, you got Tom Brady's going to be in

637
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 2: the building, all things big, Yes, all things big.

638
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: I can't wait to watch him, quite honestly, And just.

639
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 5: One other aspect of this that I am excited to

640
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 5: see from JJ McCarthy this Sunday, And you kind of

641
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 5: alluded to it in terms of what he was able

642
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 5: to do rise to the occasion in the fourth quarter,

643
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 5: whether the head coach wants to call him weighty downs.

644
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 5: The kid comes through on third and long.

645
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 2: Twelfth play of a possession that's gone just thirty yards,

646
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 2: Minnesota three to five. On third down, empty backfield, McCarthy's

647
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 2: seven step throve Buyers right side and the eighteen yard line.

648
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: Adam feelin caught it. He caught it for.

649
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 2: A twenty yard connection first down. Now the ball was

650
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 2: knocked out after he was declared down. Adam feeling hearing

651
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 2: it from the crowd. Detroit Lake's go crazy. This is

652
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 2: his first game at US Banks Stadium since Christmas Eve

653
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, when Great Joseph walked off on the Giants.

654
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 6: What a great throw by McCarthy, by the way, just

655
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 6: that deep out from on the opposite side of the field.

656
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 6: So again, when we get our one on one matchups

657
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 6: with these dB Paul, DB's Paul, we're beating.

658
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,280
Speaker 1: When he's protected. One of the keys of that highlight.

659
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,879
Speaker 5: The reason I included it the seven seven step drop PA.

660
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 5: That has been a talker whether we play the talkbacks,

661
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 5: it's the texts. Hey should Kevin O'Connell even call plays anymore?

662
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 5: He keeps doing these five and seven step drops and

663
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 5: he's getting the QB killed. Well, here's what I'll tell you.

664
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 5: I know it's tough to forget that, and it may

665
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 5: be easy to forget. I should say how bad this

666
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,439
Speaker 5: old line was the first two games, and we can

667
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 5: we can celebrate what School and Joe Huber and and

668
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 5: and Brandell did in London and finding that victory there,

669
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,360
Speaker 5: justin School on the left side those first two games

670
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 5: was an actual, real problem. And he has the right

671
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 5: to get better, and he's performed better, sure, But when

672
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 5: JJ McCarthy had time, when he was not immediately feeling

673
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,399
Speaker 5: the heat from the interior or around his backside edge

674
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 5: in the left side, JJ McCarthy throws freaking flames, my friend,

675
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 5: he absolutely does. He has the arm strength, and you

676
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 5: give him two and a half three seconds to see it,

677
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 5: any reasonable amount of time to see it.

678
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 1: And he's a rookie.

679
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 5: He's gonna make mistakes, he's gonna screw up, he's going

680
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 5: to frustrate us. If you give him time, you will

681
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 5: see more fastballs like he tossed a feeling on that

682
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 5: third and eighteen, and he will move chains and he

683
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 5: will perform in the moments that matter.

684
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 2: I hope you're right, because for those of us who

685
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 2: were at Ford Field January fifth, earlier this year, a

686
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 2: professional the p in PTSD's professional.

687
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 1: It's professional. It's PTSD. It just I just.

688
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 2: Hope no matter how any of this works out, we

689
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 2: don't hear stuff like this.

690
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 1: Burton won't put us up in re receivers right and

691
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 1: nailor to the left. Joe could the left the darnold

692
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 1: out of the shotgun.

693
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 2: Lions come with a massive blintz Sam that right at

694
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 2: the end zone. Income plaint I can't believe that he

695
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 2: overshot Jefferson. He overthrew Justin Jefferson back right of the

696
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 2: end zone and JJ was wide open.

697
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 1: Well, this has to stop. This is ridiculous.

698
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 2: Go ahead and multiply that by four and hopefully we

699
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 2: don't hear that. And we're probably gonna hear one of these.

700
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 2: Hopefully it's not markedly more than one like that like

701
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 2: earlier this year.

702
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, first and goal from.

703
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 2: The three and Jaredoff goes out of the shotgun, gives

704
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 2: it to Gibbs looking for touchdown.

705
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: Number four flows up the middle into play.

706
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 2: Cashman really and Jamier Dabbs really absolutely.

707
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 1: Pushed everything that is purple and gold into the end zone.

708
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:43,240
Speaker 3: And now he's.

709
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 2: Hit the super fact off four touchdowns for Jamiir Gibbs

710
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 2: and it's thirty to nine Detroit.

711
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: All right, we'll be right back out.

712
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 2: Alrighty, that's nine to noon for a Wednesday. Thank you

713
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 2: ver much much for listening. The program is around the

714
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 2: corner tomorrow, nine to noon. Let's get a Wolve's victory

715
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 2: tonight so we can get some positivity into this covenant,

716
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 2: because we start tomorrow's radio show with Finchy Benchy FINCHI

717
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 2: Chris Finch, nine to noon tomorrow. Right out of the gate,

718
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 2: I'm Paul Allen. Here comes Big Daddy Khan to put

719
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 2: that wrap on the shp.

720
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,279
Speaker 1: Oh boys back. The game is.

721
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:25,279
Speaker 2: Now?

722
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: What did what did I do wrong? H Man?

723
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 5: It's clear that Halloween must be near. Hiding my eyes

724
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:33,400
Speaker 5: behind my hands.

725
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: I'm stricken with fear watching our teams lose with some

726
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,879
Speaker 1: form of hope. Every night, games full of jump, scares, gore,

727
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: and much fright.

728
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 5: We try to flee in We're running in a hurry,

729
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 5: can't escape third quarters in Jamal Murray.

730
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz makes us wins and he scares us to

731
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 1: the core. I'd rather be forced to watch Saw Part four.

732
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 5: Clockword Orange and my Liz are wide open, Nita psychiatrist,

733
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 5: We're all left coping.

734
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: Sure it's just sports. Maybe I should stop the whining

735
00:37:59,000 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: first periods.

736
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 5: Wow Games has been thinking of the shining and it

737
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,720
Speaker 5: wouldn't be complete without Pj's team Nightmare near Oak Street?

738
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: Could it be the kere to this disease?

739
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,839
Speaker 5: McCarthy at poor Field dressed like Jason Voorhees.

740
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 3: JJ podcast Today's Paul Allen Show, Or listen back to

741
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 3: previous show and interviews

742
