1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: And just in case you missed it, it's the top

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: five sports taggers of the day. Now it's time for

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,639
Speaker 1: Dan Barrero's Top five and five brought to you by

6
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 2: Todd, I'm going to get between the end of the

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 2: Top five and the beginning of the Lavelle e Neil segment.

8
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 3: I want to get back to.

9
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: The approaching Snonami of the century because I do have

10
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 2: some leftover questions that we did not address much earlier

11
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: in this broadcast. But first let's get to the top five,

12
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 2: shall we?

13
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 1: Time now for the obligatory Kevin Faulness Minnesota Wild mention.

14
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,200
Speaker 4: Well, at least we got a point Round three team

15
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 4: leader and scoring Travis Connecty for this Philadelphia team fourteenth

16
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 4: all time of Flyer's history regular season points. It'll start

17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 4: over the blue line, right side, connect the slowly ahead

18
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 4: of all set out. The chain's connected, The shoddy scores

19
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 4: snuck it past Ballstead short side, and the Flyers rally

20
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 4: in the third win. The shootout won nothing and they

21
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 4: take this game three to two. Here tonight in Saint Paul.

22
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 5: Now Joe o'donald's a consummate professional. Because he's from Philly,

23
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 5: he had every chance to show a little bit of

24
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 5: you know, excitement. No, he's a professional. He's all in

25
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 5: on the Wild, unlike the ABS play by play, who

26
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 5: I rip to Shreds who has no professionalism whatsoever. But

27
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 5: more on that later. A Wild lose in a shootout

28
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 5: three to two. They had their moments. They took two

29
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 5: penalties in overtime and to kill both of them off.

30
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 5: That should be a time where you get your big

31
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 5: guns out and they couldn't. But at the end of

32
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 5: the day, you get one point. You move on to

33
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 5: play the Rangers tomorrow. Matt Nay, I.

34
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 2: Don't think this is a complicated story. Phil a FIA

35
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 2: Flyers are not very good, is that correct?

36
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: Yeah?

37
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 2: They're average, Yes, So what do you do with a

38
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 2: below average team that's coming in here. You don't give

39
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 2: them a reason to think they can win the game.

40
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: You get ahead of them, you seize control. Weren't we

41
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 2: down one nill at the end of the opening period.

42
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: They were, and that's not you know, a massive deficit.

43
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: But I don't think we did anything to discourage the

44
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 2: notion that hey, you know what, we hang around here,

45
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 2: we might be able to win the game. And I

46
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,679
Speaker 2: mentioned the quote much earlier in the show as being

47
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 2: sort of the mantra of the Friday Football Beast.

48
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 3: Winning is not inevitable.

49
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: Those are the words of Heinze, our head coach, after

50
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 2: the game, who was clearly frustrated and did not hide

51
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 2: his anger and his frustration. And I think the point

52
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 2: of the quote winning is not inevitable is you run there.

53
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 3: You fall into.

54
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 2: A big serious trap as a team. If you play

55
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 2: as if you think winning is inevitable, if you don't

56
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 2: do the things stylistically that have gotten you to where

57
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 2: you are, then and you open the door to showing

58
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 2: yourself yourselves to be a weaker team than you have

59
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 2: tended to be. And really, you could say that about

60
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: any team in this town that thinks that way. The

61
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: Wolves what you're gonna get to and you're gonna get

62
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 2: to them in a minute. You could argue they need

63
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,279
Speaker 2: that mantra more than the wild Duoe. Winning is not inevitable.

64
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 2: But if you go about the business of playing as

65
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 2: if it is, there's a good chance you're gonna stub

66
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: your toe.

67
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 3: And we did that last night.

68
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 2: I don't think we need a congressional investigation on your

69
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 2: wild club. Although you know, Billy Garrett, who I mentioned

70
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 2: co stars on tonight's Foxteine edition of Enough Said, did

71
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: tell us that he's noticed that, you know, we have

72
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 2: we've tended to do that.

73
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 3: With some teams that were supposed to beat.

74
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: Some of that's human nature, some of it might be

75
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 2: just it's a one game and you still you didn't

76
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 2: leave the game pointless.

77
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 3: You did get a point as well. But I like

78
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 3: the quote.

79
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 2: I like a coach who I think is trying to

80
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 2: remind his team of we kind of have settled on

81
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: here are the five.

82
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: Things generally we need to do to win.

83
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: The style with which we play, and last night was

84
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: a not so general reminder. When you stray from that,

85
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 2: you run the risk of an inferior team knocking you off.

86
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 5: Meanwhile, your timber Wolves, I got sense it came across

87
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 5: my desk a little. I wouldn't call it a fight.

88
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 5: The Ryan Hartman thing a couple of days ago, that

89
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 5: was a fight. There was a scuffle at the end

90
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 5: of the Wolves Clippers game.

91
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 3: I still don't understand it.

92
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 5: I don't get it. My response was, I wish it

93
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 5: would have shown more fight during the game.

94
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 3: That was mentioned, Well, that's exactly what Kilbour and Craig

95
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 3: Kilbourne had was with us. So yesterday Wolves.

96
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 2: Fan extraordinaire, it had somebody with the game ball, somebody

97
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: wanted to which to me is insane in a regular

98
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 2: season game that you're going to fight over game ball.

99
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: And again, if you play as poorly, especially defensively, as

100
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,239
Speaker 2: the Wolves did, nobody is going to have much sympathy

101
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 2: for whatever fight you show after or whatever.

102
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 3: Even if you if you feel.

103
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 2: Wrong about postgame etiquette, you're not coming from a position

104
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 2: of strength when you give up what do we give up?

105
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 3: One hundred and fifty three points.

106
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 2: I think that's the most we've ever given up in

107
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 2: the history of this team, which is saying something because

108
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: we've played some pretty bad defensive games over the centuries.

109
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 5: So I'll see if they can bounce back.

110
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 3: Timberwolves must win, must must win.

111
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: It is it all And Curry's not playing still, he's

112
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: out extended period, raasting his.

113
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 5: Golf swing on the past.

114
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 2: I don't know who else is in and who else

115
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 2: is out for Golden State. But again, I here's what's worrisome.

116
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 2: We know they can. You know, wolves can't win, can't

117
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 2: win with them, can't win without them. One minute they're

118
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 2: breaking your heart and you're angry, and the next minute

119
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: they're going.

120
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 3: These guys can beat anybody. But there's a mashup.

121
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 2: Of Julius Randall low lights from that Clippers game.

122
00:05:58,279 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 3: It's tough to watch.

123
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 2: Man, because it's not simply missed shots which you go

124
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: out happens. It is a complete and inexcusable lack of

125
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 2: reaction time and effort on the defensive end. Just I mean,

126
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 2: just to the point of absurdity, where you go, this

127
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 2: is from one game or is this from a whole season?

128
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 3: It was a whole season.

129
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 2: Again, I think from the same game, and it's not

130
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 2: a good look. And look, we all know Edward and

131
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 2: by the way, in this same game, Edwards got beaten

132
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 2: on some back door plays. Edwards was not very good defensively.

133
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 2: They had I think at the halfs like I think

134
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 2: they had sixteen or seventeen turnovers in the first half. Hell,

135
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: they had five, like within the first three minutes of

136
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: the game. So none of that bodes well. If you

137
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 2: want to go with they've done it before. They not

138
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 2: to get it back together. Remember something a year ago

139
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: when they finished fifteen to five, their schedule the last

140
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 2: twenty games was extremely soft. This year, it's not. It

141
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: includes a number of either good to very good teams.

142
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 2: From a record standpoint, and check our record against the

143
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,559
Speaker 2: other top eight teams in the conference, or well below

144
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: I think it might be five and ten.

145
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 3: We're well below five hundred. That's not going to work.

146
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 5: One mare sure. In case you've been under a rock yesterday,

147
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,239
Speaker 5: the vikings of a new quarterback. Here's the head coach.

148
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 5: Tell me if this fits into the word salad that

149
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 5: we talked about in the first hour. Here's the head

150
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 5: coach talking about how Kyler fits this offense.

151
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 6: The ability to make a lot of throws in the

152
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 6: pocket is absolutely paired with the ability to be a

153
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 6: real real weapon with his athleticisms, quickness, his ability to

154
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 6: you know, not only attack the line of scrimmage as

155
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 6: a runner, but you know, maintaining the ability to create

156
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 6: some throw throwing the opportunities off schedule and hopefully be

157
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 6: a challenge for the way we're defended with you know,

158
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 6: with how people do play justin and allocating extra resources

159
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 6: that way, and with Jordan Addison and TJ and obviously

160
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 6: Jordan and and Aaron and all the other guys we're

161
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 6: gonna you know, have in that huddle as well as

162
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 6: a healthy offensive line. You know, I'm very, very excited

163
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 6: about the possibilities of what we're going to be able

164
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 6: to do in twenty twenty six.

165
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 3: There you have it.

166
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 5: The head coach, Kyler is going to fit right in.

167
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 5: He's got all the weapons in.

168
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 3: It's again, it's what a lot of coaches are going

169
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 3: to say in his same position. The worst Salid quotion

170
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 3: was high yesterday. I actually thought that, you know, there's

171
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 3: a couple of other answers that had me a little confused,

172
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 3: and I thought there was a lot of a lot

173
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 3: of subtle self serving going on during that word salad

174
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 3: expedition about how all every quarterback wants to play with us,

175
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 3: and everybody wants us here and we do this. There

176
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 3: was a lot of patting on the back, which I,

177
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 3: you can do it, but I I just don't think

178
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 3: there's much of an appetite for it right now. Coming

179
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 3: off the season that the Vikings did a year ago,

180
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 3: the Vikings failed at the quarterback position. They screwed up

181
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 3: their quarterback strategy, You can blame it on however you

182
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 3: want to. You can blame it on KOC, you can

183
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 3: blame it on the general manager who's gone. You can

184
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 3: blame it on the quarterback himself, JJ McCarthy. But it

185
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 3: was a flat out fail last year, and so am

186
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 3: I automatically going to assume that it's going to be

187
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 3: fine this year. No, I'll have to see it to

188
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 3: believe it. I understand why people could come to the

189
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 3: conclusion that Kyler Murray is the best option of several

190
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: not great options. I think that's fair and that's honest.

191
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 3: I just don't want people to pretend that some of

192
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 3: the concerns aren't legit on Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray has.

193
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 2: A lot of explaining to do and a lot of

194
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 2: proving to do.

195
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 3: Why does he.

196
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 2: Get rejected by the organization that drafted in right?

197
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 3: What happened? Because teams don't do that.

198
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 2: I think without some reason you can say the franchise

199
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,599
Speaker 2: failed him as much as he failed the franchise.

200
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 3: Might be some truth to that. Let's see where the

201
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 3: thing goes. Let's get a shorty in now.

202
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 2: I will get to my weather question that we did

203
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 2: not cover the first hour of the show, and then

204
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: we'll get Lavelle's reaction to the Kyler Murray era being

205
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 2: ushered in, and maybe some World Baseball stuff and who

206
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 2: goes what else with Lavo at five point thirty.

207
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 5: Every game is a big game when it's Wild hockey.

208
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 5: You can feel the intensity the excitement at Grand Casino

209
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 5: Arena this season. And get your tickets today, Wild dot

211
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 2: All right, we do have Leavell coming up in just

212
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 2: a few minutes. We have a pretty significant snow coming

213
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 2: The weather terrorists sound certain we know how that goes.

214
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 2: Range I've seen is eight to like eighteen, depending on

215
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 2: where we're hitting. And which forecast, Which model that's what's

216
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 2: the that's the thing.

217
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 3: Which which do you do.

218
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 2: You prefer the European model or the Bohemian model? Which

219
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 2: weather model do you get a spaghetti model?

220
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 3: All those?

221
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 2: Here's my question when we get into these kinds of forecasts.

222
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 3: Let me give an example.

223
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 2: Saint Patti's Day I think is technically two day, but

224
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 2: there's a lot of weekend stuff right Saint Patty's Day

225
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 2: related for because the weekend is conducive, and there's stuff

226
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 2: that we have to mess with in Saint Paul regarding

227
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 2: Irish dance stuff over the weekend too, like Sunday. So

228
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 2: how does that work on like big events? Do they

229
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:24,959
Speaker 2: do they call it early?

230
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 3: Do they wait for is it six inches or stuff?

231
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 3: How unlike big events?

232
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 2: What's our approach in twenty twenty six, because I feel

233
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 2: like in recent years it's been to on just the

234
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: basis of a forecast like this allegedly being the biggest

235
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 2: snowstorm since at least twenty eighteen, the April one that

236
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 2: dropped I think anywhere from fourteen to twenty depending on

237
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 2: where you were. That we go ahead before there's even

238
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 2: a dusting and say better safe than sorry. People have

239
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 2: to make plans. We are postponing said and said such

240
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 2: and such event. We're getting ahead of it so that

241
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 2: people then can plan and can have an idea and

242
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 2: there's less stress.

243
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 3: So how do we do that?

244
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 2: How does that work now on big events over Saint

245
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 2: Patti's Day weekend?

246
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 7: Is it.

247
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 2: Wait till the last minute and then you say what

248
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 2: you can via the internet or X or whatever you

249
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 2: know outlet you might use. That's I'm very curious to

250
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 2: see how that's going to play out when it involves

251
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 2: Saint Patti's day activity. I asked earlier for a lot

252
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: of people to give us how their visits at local

253
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 2: supermarkets are going, because I'd had some reports earlier that

254
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 2: several of them are being jammed, not necessarily that they're

255
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 2: running out of stuff, but the people are even though

256
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 2: tomorrow is supposed to still be okay during the day,

257
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 2: that we're stocking up as if we're going to be

258
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 2: hold up in our homes for the next six weeks.

259
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 2: But that's a different issue than what we do with

260
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 2: big events. The Wild have a Matt Andee. No is

261
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 2: it a five o'clock game? When do we play?

262
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: No?

263
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 3: We play Saturday.

264
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, we play tomorrow five o'clock is the bucktrop time?

265
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 3: Who we plan?

266
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 5: The Rangers?

267
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 2: My sources say was that the Rangers had asked whether

268
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 2: there was any way to like move up the game

269
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 2: time to give them a greater chance to get out

270
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 2: of town, and my sources also say the answer was no,

271
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 2: that occasionally you might be willing to move a game

272
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 2: back like later, but you don't want to move it

273
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 2: up for planning purposes, and that this is going to

274
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 2: be like we this might be our most lucrative game

275
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: at the gate all season for whatever reason, that it's

276
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 2: sold really well, and so we're leaving that in that

277
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 2: case alone, not to mention the leafs are in town Sunday.

278
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 3: Well, that's right, I thought about that. That's true. If

279
00:14:59,360 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 3: they make it.

280
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know where they'd be coming from. So

281
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 2: I'm curious to know how that goes. Oh, by the way,

282
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 2: so we're what do we say are the range we've

283
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 2: heard is, as I said, minimum ten inches of snow

284
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 2: to upwards of eighteen inches of snow. Apple Valley. The

285
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 2: forecast there is for three feet. Here's automatic Here's.

286
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 5: What I'm seeing from the National Weather sirch Okay, this

287
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 5: is the latest. Here's the range in the Twin Cities. Okay,

288
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 5: I believe the two. This is going to be a

289
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 5: really stupid question, the two. I believe this is. Well,

290
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 5: it has to be nevermind forget I said that, right,

291
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 5: the Twin Cities range eight to twenty four inches.

292
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 3: Come one, They're not. That's their range there.

293
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 2: Saying that range is based on hedging our bets on

294
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 2: the storm or range, as in, depending on what part

295
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 2: of the metropolitan area you live in, that some parts

296
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 2: are going to get eight inches of snow, and some

297
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 2: are not project maybe some are.

298
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 3: Gonna get two feet of snow.

299
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 5: It sounds like it's just the high end would be god. Yeah.

300
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 5: So the expected amount, they have a low end it

301
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 5: expected and a high end. So for Minneapolis, the expected

302
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 5: amount is nineteen inches. The high end is thirty one inches,

303
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 5: the low end of five inches thirty one thirty one Yeah.

304
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 3: So is this a bomb cyclone?

305
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: I mean this, there's got to be a very very sexy, violent,

306
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 2: you know, radical name to describe this isn't there. I mean,

307
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 2: when when it's capable of this kind of snow vibe,

308
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 2: I'm gonna start calling it snow violence, you know, because

309
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: that's what the weather terrorists love. They love those terms

310
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 2: bomb cyclone, remember that one when that started appearing. I

311
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 2: don't know where the bomb cycle and it's a real term.

312
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 2: But once the weather people figured, oh we throw this

313
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 2: out there, bomb cyclone, Are you kidding me?

314
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 3: We can sell this easily.

315
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 2: So I'm curious to know what the term is that

316
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 2: would describe that kind of range and that kind of activity.

317
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 5: God speed to everyone out. No Claire who you can

318
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,360
Speaker 5: hear the fan out No Claire across borders via the

319
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,360
Speaker 5: free iHeartRadio app. Well, I believe in frequency reaches out

320
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 5: there want that too. Their expected amount is twenty three inches.

321
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 5: They're high end thirty seven inch.

322
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 3: God, they're just making up these numbers.

323
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,880
Speaker 5: Why how about how about we I mean, if it's

324
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 5: the high end amount for twin cities, which I have

325
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 5: is thirty one If that's a high end out thirty

326
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 5: one inches, so how.

327
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 3: Are we supposed to do sermons that last?

328
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 5: Shut me up?

329
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 3: That's the question. True.

330
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: If let's say so, sermons starts at nine, If by

331
00:17:53,960 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 2: seven am Sunday we are approaching thirty inches of snow,

332
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 2: can we can people fairly still demand still expect that

333
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 2: we that's our shift. We have to get to work.

334
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 2: We'll have to talk to programming director chat Abbott about

335
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 2: what his own expectations are. And as I said, unfortunately

336
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: I don't have I used to have equipment. I don't

337
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 2: even have equipment anymore to where I could just do

338
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 2: it from my place.

339
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 3: So we'll solve Mike.

340
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 5: I don't know if I could run it remotely, that

341
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 5: would have to Yeah, that's another thing as well, the

342
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 5: possibility as well.

343
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to the bottom of our pause.

344
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 3: We'll see if Lavelle did go gross Market supermarket shopping today.

345
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 3: He's a Chicago kid. You think he'd be fine with

346
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 3: all of this, but we'll find out. Is he back

347
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 3: from Florida. I think he is. Well, we'll double check.

348
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 2: Because he was ben at spring training as well, so

349
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 2: level if you have questions for him. Brat on Bryant

350
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 2: k FA N text line six four six eight six.

351
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 7: Yeah.

352
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 2: We've got a lot of people checking in via the free, free,

353
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 2: Free iHeartRadio app. Lavelli Neil the third joined, just how

354
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 2: often do you listen to the show via the app

355
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 2: as opposed to via the frequency.

356
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 7: I would say maybe more on the app because it

357
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 7: just depends like where I'm at, maybe grocery shopping or

358
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 7: running errands or something. Maybe out of the car. Then

359
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 7: I'll have to you know, iPods in I'm listening that way.

360
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 7: And then there's sometimes where like may be on the

361
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 7: ground parking garage, like at the office. Yeah, and I

362
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 7: cant get radio signal, then I'll switch over to the

363
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 7: app because I do have bluetooth, so I'll get over

364
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 7: my car.

365
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 2: That's outstanding well, and the app, as you know, is

366
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 2: easy to operate. It is free and.

367
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 7: I will tell you this, And I listened to it

368
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,360
Speaker 7: every day while I was in the floor. From Wednesday

369
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 7: to Wednesday, I was listening in from Russet much appreciated.

370
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 2: So you are back from your spring training sojourn. What

371
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:14,880
Speaker 2: would you say was the most interesting or surprising nugget

372
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 2: that you gleaned during your visit to the Twins facilities.

373
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 7: I had a Twins coach tell me that Mickabel may

374
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 7: have the nastiest stuff of anybody in their rotation, and

375
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 7: that Marco Raya may have the nastiest stuff any picture

376
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 7: in camp. The coach I talked too said, plut and

377
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 7: catch with him with ray is just like a challenge

378
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 7: because his ball is moving all over the place and

379
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 7: you're sitting there thinking that once he harnesses this that

380
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 7: he is going to be hell to deal with. And

381
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 7: apparently Micabel's stuff is nasty as well. I did not

382
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 7: have him projected to my rotation. After that conversation, I

383
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 7: kicked Zeby Matthews out of my opening their rotation. I

384
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,679
Speaker 7: put Micabel in now make fish today at Clearwater against

385
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 7: blue Jays, and promptly he should his first walk of

386
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 7: spring training Calliby to run over all right, But then

387
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 7: he settled down after that and pitched effectively, so he

388
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 7: touched his ninety six. He's got three other pretty good pitches,

389
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 7: and the talent is there. So those are the two

390
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 7: things that jumped out of me. Not impressed with the defense.

391
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 7: I'm worried about this team's ability to make plays. Just

392
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 7: some guys there are just were not good in the field.

393
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 7: And this bullpen, it's got a lot of experience, but

394
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 7: it's shortened talent. Man, I don't know how to close

395
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 7: our games. I don't think Liam Henches is gonna be

396
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 7: ready for opening day. I mean, Cole Hans is gonna

397
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 7: open up as the closer. I'm not sure if he's

398
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 7: gonna be that effective as the closer. I don't know

399
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 7: who's gonna be the guy that pitched the guys that

400
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 7: pitch a leverage situations. This bullpen could be This bullpen

401
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 7: could be significantly below average, and that's gonna take away

402
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 7: from whatever companies you have in a rotation, whatever expectant

403
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 7: improvement you're you're gonna get from the everyday players in

404
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 7: the in the batan order.

405
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 3: So you're gonna have us on seventy five victories.

406
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 7: What do you think my new Yeah, my new over

407
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 7: under seventy four and a half.

408
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 3: Okay, and we'll see where do you got us over

409
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 3: or under?

410
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 7: I'm going to I'm gonna try to be not so

411
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 7: common to go under under because I could I foresee

412
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 7: a situation at mid season where Joe Ryan's moved and

413
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,959
Speaker 7: maybe Buckston move if he's willing to waive. It's no limited,

414
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 7: no trade, just because the twins are gonna be out

415
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 7: of it, they're thinking that they're gonna be in it.

416
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 7: I don't see how you tell me who's gonna be

417
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 7: the core at batan order. Uh maybe lu Keisha Buck's

418
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 7: pregnant lead off, but who who are going to be

419
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 7: reliable run producers in a lineup we don't know who

420
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 7: they are. And then the aforementioned concerns about defense and

421
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 7: you know, protecting leads after the seventh thing, it's just

422
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 7: to me, it's it may be more than what this

423
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 7: team is built for.

424
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 3: Are you captivated by the World Baseball Classic?

425
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 7: I like it. I do like it. I'm actually on

426
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 7: Jason Stark side on they should have preliminent events during

427
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 7: this time and have the semi finals and finals maybe

428
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 7: during All Star Week and just just blank out the

429
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 7: whole week and have the World Baseball Classic semifinals and

430
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 7: finals after the All Star Game on that Tuesday. And

431
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 7: I just think that it's great to have this tournament.

432
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 7: It's cool to see the teams that playing with so

433
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 7: much passion, like the Demincan Republic of Venezuela and Puerto Rico,

434
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 7: and watching what Italy's doing. You want the expression machine

435
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 7: and the dougout and Vidi Pascortino hitting the home runs.

436
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 7: You know, it's pretty entertaining. I just think it's hard

437
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 7: to take a tournament seriously when these pitches on progressive

438
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 7: for the regular season and they're they're limited to forty pitches,

439
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 7: they're limited to fifty pitches or whatever. I just think

440
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 7: you need to you're gonna have a tournament like this,

441
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 7: it's gotta be when everybody's a full strength with pictures

442
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 7: are stretched out and it's more like a regular season

443
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 7: game here. So I would like to see a way

444
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 7: for it to be fit into All Star Week. I

445
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 7: don't know if that's possible, but I think it's what.

446
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 7: There's gotta be a way to make that happen. Is it?

447
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:32,679
Speaker 2: Are you a bit, I guess confused by or concerned

448
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 2: with the fact that the US, say manager did not

449
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 2: quite seem to understand.

450
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 3: How the US might or might not qualify to move

451
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 3: on to the next round.

452
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know what, we had a problem in this

453
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 7: country that when we make a mistake, we don't want

454
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 7: to on up to it as lulan. And that starts

455
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 7: at the top with with the crack that's going on

456
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 7: over in the Washington and Tea right now, just admit that, Okay,

457
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 7: we may have overtopped this a little bit here. And

458
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 7: I think Mark de Rosa is a sharp baseball guy.

459
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 7: I've had conversations with him, and I could call him

460
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 7: right now on my phone and talk to him I

461
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 7: really needed to. But I think that in that situation,

462
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 7: in practiced dealt with the procedures were and what all

463
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 7: the tiebreakers were. And look was interesting because you get

464
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 7: time to a situation from Mexico has to win but

465
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 7: not win, but but not score for war to four runs.

466
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,120
Speaker 7: I mean, that's really trying to thread a small thread

467
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 7: the needle right now, you know. So I feel back

468
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 7: for him. He should know that, Yes, But the second

469
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 7: time which realized that you may have been caught up

470
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 7: guard or may have not been fully understanding of what

471
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 7: the tiebreaker rules are. Just say, hey, I'm not used

472
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,880
Speaker 7: to this, y'all. I just boxed it up. I'm sorry now.

473
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 7: But the only question that comes into play is that

474
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 7: if he thought that during the game, was he managing is?

475
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 7: If okay, I don't have to go all out and

476
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 7: when this came because I think you already qualified, then

477
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 7: that's another problem. Now, that's another situation that needs to

478
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 7: be addressed. So but I still think he helps himself

479
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 7: out better if you just admits that I screwed up.

480
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 7: But I'm sorry. Let's let's move forward with this. But

481
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 7: you do have to wonder if that effect of how

482
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 7: you managed the rest thinking are we?

483
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 3: Obviously the big Vikings move news becoming official yesterday is

484
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 3: that Kyler Murray has been signed to a one year

485
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 3: minimum contract. Lavelle E Neil the third officially board with

486
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 3: or inspired by said announcement.

487
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 7: Hmmm, board with, We're inspired. Those are two very different options. Yes,

488
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 7: of course you would you you would plot that sort

489
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 7: of diabolical scheme on me. I would say slightly on

490
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 7: the inspired side of that scale. Because Kyler Murray for

491
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 7: how short he is and for how he lost his

492
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 7: job during the season. He is more accomplished than with

493
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 7: Sam Darnold came to the Vikings. His career TWBR is

494
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 7: hired to Sam Donalds. His career pass rating is hired

495
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 7: to Sam Donald's. He has thrown from more than thirty

496
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 7: five hundred yards at least four times I believe maybe

497
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 7: five in his career. He has put up numbers, and

498
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 7: he's mobile, he could run and by monitoring social media today,

499
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 7: Lewis Riddick has been at war. The anti Murray crowd

500
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 7: will say, well, he's well, he's too short and gets

501
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,239
Speaker 7: passes bad at doubt. Well, Riddick has just came out

502
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 7: with stats that show that on the average, only tour

503
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 7: passes were bad at down per game over a season.

504
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 7: In terms of career bat it passes, he was only

505
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,400
Speaker 7: thirty ahead of Sam darn Okay, so over of course

506
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 7: of a season, that's just like two. Then they came

507
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 7: at him about not being able to take snaps from

508
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 7: under center, and Riddick bound stats that kind of go

509
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 7: against that as well. So he does have some experience

510
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 7: on the center. Yes, does he likes shotgun Absolutely? I

511
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 7: would trust in our quarterback whisper. And this is gonna

512
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 7: be on KOC too till drew down on his soul

513
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 7: called reputation of being a quarterback whisper to get the

514
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,120
Speaker 7: most out of Murray while getting him to be under

515
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 7: center at times and sitting some shotgun and I want

516
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 7: to point out, and I'm sorry to do the shot

517
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 7: because you know, I'm from Chicago, grew up a Bears fan,

518
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 7: But Caleb Williams is in the shotgun a lot in

519
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 7: you at USC and Ben Johnson got him under center

520
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 7: for the Bear, so that's possible to make that transition.

521
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 7: So Murray may not be the tallest guy, but the

522
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 7: fact that he's more mobile is throwing a run. I

523
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 7: think the gates someone that concerned about passes being better,

524
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 7: and there's numbers to support that, and he does. Someone

525
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,479
Speaker 7: has has some experience under center. So you look at

526
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 7: the look at the production, and you look at what

527
00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 7: Riggers been uh using his animal against the perception Murray

528
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 7: is too short or can't operate under center, and you're saying, Okay,

529
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 7: there's something to work with here. Now does he need

530
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 7: to be deprogrammed a little bit? Probably because I'm sure

531
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 7: things what Paara shaped those last year in Arizona, and

532
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 7: what's that? And you know there's those, there's a Cardinal's organization.

533
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 7: This is a shining example of how football organizations should

534
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 7: be put together. Let's let's put that out as well.

535
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 7: So this could work. It definitely could work. I I

536
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 7: when I first heard Kylin Murray, like three weeks, I

537
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 7: was like, I don't know. But the more I looked

538
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 7: at it, I was like, Okay, this could work. This

539
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 7: is not the worst thing ever. And Vikings fans have

540
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 7: to admit this too, that we did not know how

541
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 7: Sam Jarnald was going to operate when he got here.

542
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 7: We did not know that he was going to go

543
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 7: fourteen to three, did we No, So remember that skepticism

544
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 7: as you evaluate how Calum Murray Murray can enhance the Vikings.

545
00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 2: Offensewashed Wow, well, I mean, in all honesty, what I

546
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 2: what I said at the start of the show is

547
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 2: you can make the argument that among the available options,

548
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 2: he represents the best, but that doesn't mean he's a

549
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 2: great option.

550
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 3: To me, you're cherry picking. I mean, you're you're, you're, you're, you're,

551
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 3: you're reminding.

552
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 2: Us of stuff that might be a little bit more

553
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 2: I guess forgiving and more indicative of the possibilities that

554
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 2: he represents. But he's been very inconsistent as a QB.

555
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 2: You can argue he's actually declined a bit.

556
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 3: He The comparison on the Shotgun with Caleb to me

557
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 3: is is is not logical because Caleb just got to

558
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 3: the pros Kyler Murray has been a pro for seven years.

559
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 3: And the idea that we're still talking about, what can

560
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 3: he handle being under center for a consistent amount of time.

561
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 3: That's what he should be way past that to me.

562
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 3: So I'm willing to give it a shot because there's

563
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 3: no choice now. But let's go in with our eyes

564
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 3: open and to pretend that he's been that he has

565
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 3: not had some responsibility for the fact that the team

566
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 3: had drafted him, was willing to let him fly away,

567
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 3: and that I don't think there were There might have

568
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 3: been one other team, maybe the Steelers, if Rogers wasn't

569
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 3: going to sign with them, who would have been interested

570
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 3: in interested in signing him as a starter.

571
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 7: That's it.

572
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 2: I just think we got to call we got to

573
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 2: be going with our eyes open and say there's plenty

574
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 2: to be concerned with that he has to get better

575
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 2: at and he just hasn't to this point, even if yeah,

576
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 2: maybe not as many balls are bad as we said,

577
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: But the fact is throwing over the middle is not

578
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 2: a strength of his that's provable, And part of the

579
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 2: reason offered is because his line of.

580
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 3: Vision is difficult.

581
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 2: So I don't care if the ball is being batted,

582
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 2: if it's affecting how often he can even try to

583
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 2: go over the middle. That's an issue that has to

584
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 2: be that that has to be dealt with, especially for

585
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 2: a team that has a head coach who's bread and

586
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 2: butter is passing over the middle, notwithstanding the fact that

587
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 2: they removed all those passes for JJ McCarthy.

588
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 7: Well, what you're calling is terry picking. I'm calling his evidence.

589
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 7: There's there's evidence that he's put up numbers in this league,

590
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 7: and there's evidence that he has played under center.

591
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 3: But not consistently, not not not.

592
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 2: Now you could argue actually under us, Ben Guessing reminded

593
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 2: us Darnold was in the shotgun a decent amount.

594
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 3: So it's not illegal.

595
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 2: But what I want to know is is there any

596
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 2: season in which eighty percent of the time Kyler Murray

597
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 2: was under center.

598
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 3: That's a fair question.

599
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 7: I don't have to answer to that one. I just

600
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 7: said there's evidence that he has played under center. Yeah, definitely.

601
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 7: And I was your the argument there about the intermediate, Well,

602
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 7: the intermediate passes. I mean that's going to be something

603
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 7: that has to be worked out, of work worked with.

604
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 7: But argument is this is that he's twenty eight, twenty nine.

605
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 7: I don't know if he's at the point where he's

606
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 7: he's an old doc that can't be tied in the trick.

607
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 7: He's a veteran guy who may be more willing to adapt,

608
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 7: and the willing may be more willing to evolve, given

609
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 7: the koc preference for throwing the ball down the middle.

610
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 7: And if k believes that this can work, I'm gonna

611
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 7: give a benefit of dout the KALC and the fact

612
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 7: that they're only have to pay one point three million

613
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 7: dollars for a guy who has put up as many

614
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 7: skins in the water one.

615
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 3: I don't care about that.

616
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 7: And I say that I say that totally understanding that

617
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 7: his playoff history is not great. He has put up

618
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 7: regular season numbers, and I think there's some positives here

619
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 7: that you can you can see where Koc wants to work.

620
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 3: With when I say you're cherry picking.

621
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 2: I'm not necessarily arguing that some of those points aren't legit.

622
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 2: What I'm saying is the only ones you're concentrating on

623
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 2: are the ones that indicate they basically that the cardinal

624
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 2: should never have cut him, and he's underrated and he's great.

625
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 2: I'm saying, there are just as many concerns in his

626
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:13,280
Speaker 2: statistical production and in how he's gone about his business

627
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 2: the quarterback position. If we're going to be fair on

628
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 2: the other side of the ledger, the lavo teams don't

629
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 2: pay players or quarterbacks thirty five million dollars to walk

630
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,840
Speaker 2: away for the hell of it, right. They do that

631
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 2: even if they're flawed organizations, because at some point they

632
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 2: think they've seen enough to say he's not bad, but

633
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 2: he's not ever really gonna get better or get us

634
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 2: to that place where we have to go. And I

635
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 2: just want all of that stuff to be discussed and

636
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 2: factored in.

637
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 3: I don't want it to be one of those deals

638
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 3: here where all those negative questions are at least in

639
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 3: the mix until we sign them and then they go

640
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 3: magically they disappear. And what we are looking for only

641
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 3: are the numbers that seem to indicate he's actually better

642
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 3: than advertised. Does that make sense?

643
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 7: It makes sense. But I may have some point of

644
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 7: the possibility that maybe Kyle I'm sorry, maybe Kyler needed

645
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 7: a lifeline at this point.

646
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:11,720
Speaker 3: It's possible.

647
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 7: Yes, in a situation where Jacobe presaid us put up

648
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 7: better numbers of him, Is.

649
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 2: That all on?

650
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 7: Is that all Kyler? Is that all on how the

651
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 7: president is operating? And maybe he got into a middle

652
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 7: Maybe he got into a funk and went paar shaped

653
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 7: over how things are going. Maybe he needed a fresh start.

654
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 7: Maybe he needs Kale See in his life. Right now,

655
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 7: I'm just saying that with the numbers he's put up

656
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 7: and the evidence that he is he has operated in

657
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 7: ways that koc can accentuate, that makes it this not

658
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 7: that bad of a signing, especially for one point three

659
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 7: million dollars. Uh, tell me who was better? A better

660
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 7: option to Kyler Murray? Yeah, Aaron Rodgers here.

661
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers. Yeah. For me, it is now again, that's

662
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 3: what that's our Rogers Murray. Yes, I would take Rogers

663
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 3: over Murray, Yes, I would have. But to this day,

664
00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 3: tell me the Vikings would not have been in a

665
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 3: he position last year with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, winning

666
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 3: nine games. Then they than they were you knowchall.

667
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,800
Speaker 7: You were gasmk over where was the It was a

668
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 7: geezer show you had because Rogers went off against David Rivers, right,

669
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 7: I don't remember.

670
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 3: Who it was, but he had he had it late.

671
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 3: He had a couple of good games.

672
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 7: Yes, there was a run of a bunch of old

673
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 7: guys started put up numbers one day, yes, one of them,

674
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 7: and you were going on gasm over the radio for

675
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 7: your age getting done.

676
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 3: Well, what's wrong with that? It's not. I don't think

677
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 3: that's that's illegal. Uh, we'll see.

678
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,880
Speaker 2: Like I said, he's here, I'm going to give him

679
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 2: a chance, and I'd love to be wrong.

680
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,280
Speaker 3: And when I stay wrong, I'm not saying he doesn't

681
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 3: have a chance.

682
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 2: I just say we're we're living in an interesting world

683
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 2: where a guy that I guarantee you this, if McCarthy

684
00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 2: were advancing, if anybody publicly a year ago, at any

685
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,279
Speaker 2: point it said you know what, you gotta watch out for.

686
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray is a guy to keep your eye on.

687
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 2: Most people would have been holding their noses. And I

688
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 2: do think it just he becomes more viable because human

689
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 2: nature being what it is. The people around the organization,

690
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 2: they start whispering stuff that are positive about him because

691
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 2: it's in their interest to do so. I just don't

692
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 2: think in our heart and hearts, we really wanted to

693
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 2: be in a situation where we want to find out

694
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 2: how much football in a second life Kyler Murray has.

695
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I just don't well, I.

696
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 7: Get that, but I just want I was just pointing

697
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 7: out reasons why this could work. It's not that they're a.

698
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 7: There's an A, B, C and D why it could work.

699
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,320
Speaker 7: It's not just like one thing. There's a couple of

700
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 7: things there a few things there suggest that this could

701
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 7: positly work. So that's where I was kind of leaning

702
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 7: leaning into. Now you know, wellok at a big, big,

703
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 7: bigger picture there they think I swung a deal for

704
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 7: mac Jones or don't know what you can Marcus Murray O.

705
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 7: I would have priced taken the part taking Marcus Bury

706
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 7: over Kyler given the tumult that Kyler's the most recent

707
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 7: season was, but he was recent as twenty twenty four.

708
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 7: Kyle's put them numbers man. That can't be the night.

709
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 3: So well, but here's the other thing.

710
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 7: Okay, there's reasons why this work.

711
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 2: Let's be careful on the quarterback whisperer thing, because we

712
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 2: tend to cherry pick there.

713
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 3: Where we were, we were in a great argument.

714
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 7: We remember the quarterback making quarterback whispery the koc.

715
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, well exactly, and and and that's my point is

716
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 2: you can't only remember the quarterbacks who he develops or

717
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 2: seemed to help get a second life a la Sam Darnold,

718
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 2: and forget that they absolutely were convinced themselves.

719
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 3: And this isn't just on quasy.

720
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 2: Anybody who thinks this is just on quasy is delusional

721
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 2: that they had in uh uh jj McCarthy a guy who,

722
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 2: with the people around him, could be serviceable immediately. And

723
00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 2: then the hope and the presumption was get here from there.

724
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,399
Speaker 2: That's now you could say the comeback is, well, he's young.

725
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 2: But if you can't pick, you can't cherry pick on

726
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 2: the quarterback whisperer thing and give all the credit to

727
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 2: him when it goes well, and give none of the

728
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 2: blame to him whether it's a young quarterback or a

729
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 2: veteran quarterback when it does not go as smoothly.

730
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 7: But that's a great point. I mean, I would love

731
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 7: to have been in a room for those conversations about

732
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 7: the siding if JJ was the guy to go with,

733
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 7: because I think that the decision was full of hubris, yes,

734
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 7: and that no matter what quarterback we could try to

735
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 7: out there, we're gonna have a hick ass defense and

736
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 7: we're gonna win at least ten games and be a

737
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 7: factor for the postseason. I wonder if there's anybody pounded

738
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 7: the fifth on the table going it's not much of

739
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 7: a good thing here. We've got Sam Darnold and Daniel

740
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 7: Donald's in house. Yeah, let's keep one of these guys here,

741
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 7: you know, looking back on it, I mean, Hinsight twenty twenty.

742
00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 7: But I just want to know AB just call on

743
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 7: line because one thing to have conviction about something, and

744
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 7: there's another thing that you have conviction of something and

745
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 7: be wrong. And that's what it was with JJ McCarthy.

746
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, there's no question about that. And we'll see.

747
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 2: I mean again, it will be one of the more

748
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 2: interesting storylines in the NFL this season because we're obsessed

749
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 2: with the quarterback position and it's a great debate subject.

750
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,800
Speaker 2: Right every time this sort of thing happens, But in

751
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,839
Speaker 2: the end, it remember this was not the plan. The plan,

752
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,319
Speaker 2: especially now, was to turn it over to McCarthy. Now,

753
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 2: I firmly believe no matter what the rhetoric is, they

754
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 2: know Kyler Murray is going to be their starter, that

755
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 2: there's no competition. They can pretend there's a competition, but

756
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,879
Speaker 2: that there isn't that you bring in Kyler Murray, you're

757
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 2: bringing him in to start in the upcoming season, do

758
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 2: you agree?

759
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 7: I agree. Although other people in your radio station are

760
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,720
Speaker 7: talking about what if Jaji comes back from quarterback school

761
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 7: with a PhD, master's doctorate in quarterback and all of

762
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 7: a sudden he's becoming the ball involved of quarterbacks. You know,

763
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 7: I think there's less of a chance of that happened.

764
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,920
Speaker 7: And then Kyler Murray Murray being the least functional in

765
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 7: the Vikings offense. So and I'm also confident that koc

766
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 7: can scheme around. I mean, what was the story, what

767
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:23,799
Speaker 7: was the stories coming out about the Vikings. Then at

768
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 7: the end of the season, tylo Se was just calling

769
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 7: what certain play is, just hoping that j jcobbens the

770
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 7: completions right he was, Yeah, so he watered down the playbook.

771
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 7: I'm sure he could offer the playbook for Kyler Murray

772
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 7: strength and Kyler may say, no challenge me. I want

773
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 7: to throw the ball in the middle. We'll see how

774
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 7: this all works. You know, I'm a little nervous about uh,

775
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 7: the kid, the kid like I was not fired up

776
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 7: about his press conference because equations is not a way

777
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 7: a word to describe him. And you know, I always

778
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 7: getting nervous when when players talking the same cadence in

779
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 7: the same rhythm. You know, you asked him a question,

780
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,319
Speaker 7: he you have about the same Yeah, I'll say about

781
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 7: the same fifteen eighteen second answer. It was never never varied.

782
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 7: It never got deeper, it never got shorter. And when

783
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 7: I hear that type of rhythm, I get a little

784
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,800
Speaker 7: nervous about that. So we'll see how this all worship

785
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 7: Keilty on.

786
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 3: That note, We'll let you go.

787
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 7: What do you do?

788
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 3: What's the Sunday column?

789
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,400
Speaker 7: No, Sunday. I'm finishing my vacation this week. You are?

790
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:21,320
Speaker 3: Are you still in Florida?

791
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 7: No, I'm bad. You are spend in the last couple

792
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 7: of days here. Kadi actually went to the watering hole

793
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 7: today and watched Illinois loosen overtime to Wisconsin tournament. Yeah,

794
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 7: despite being up six points at midway, through the second

795
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 7: half and somehow Wisconsin shot thirty seven free throws I'm

796
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 7: exaggerating over the last ten minutes and ended up pushing

797
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 7: the game in the overtime and winning. We walked twice

798
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 7: to Wisconsin this year, both in overtime, and I'm really disgusted.

799
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 3: Right now, do you have six weeks worth of water?

800
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:52,919
Speaker 3: You know what's coming?

801
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 7: Right?

802
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 3: Does the bomb cyclone? This is it's one day.

803
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 7: It's gonna be one or two days of pay much

804
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,279
Speaker 7: sister coming? Can you go to Costco? Can you get them?

805
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 7: Can you flip the tank? Can you get I'm like, what,

806
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 7: it's one and a half days Sunday, It's could be

807
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,840
Speaker 7: gone by Thursday because it's get warmer. Yeah, She's like

808
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 7: she used to bat down the hatches and barricade ourselves

809
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,439
Speaker 7: and be prepared, like to be like trapped for a month.

810
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 7: I'm like, we just think what, I got a frozen pizza.

811
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 7: We'll be fine Saturday night.

812
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 2: Didn't she grow up on the South side of Chicago.

813
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 2: I mean it wasn't like she grew up in Atlanta, Georgia.

814
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 7: Yeah, we grew up together Chicago. Where though, when you

815
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 7: start talking about twenty inches of snow. I'm like, wait

816
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 7: a minute, this only happens where there's like Michigan involved,

817
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 7: because our worst snowstorms in Chicago was when lake effect

818
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 7: takes in. True, that's when the six to eight inches

819
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 7: forecast ended up being fifteen to eighteen because you did

820
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,800
Speaker 7: not know what the lake effect was going to be. Like,

821
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:50,839
Speaker 7: when people are coming out here to talk about nineteen inches,

822
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 7: I'm like, what here? And what was the old clear thing?

823
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 7: And maybe thirty I was like.

824
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 3: What, Yeah, I don't know that.

825
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 2: Some of these numbers, it's almost like it's it's almost

826
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 2: like it's a fantasy fantasy, you know, weather, It's like

827
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 2: Fantasy football edition where it just seems like the numbers

828
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 2: are kind of made up.

829
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:06,359
Speaker 3: But we'll see.

830
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 7: Uh, I don't know this. If we if we're get

831
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 7: to like eight inches, uh, people are gonna be bringing

832
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 7: Paul Douglas's.

833
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 3: That's probably true out there.

834
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 7: I saw the park a lot of costco. Yeah, and

835
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:24,520
Speaker 7: Egan it was a mess. So we're all panicking now.

836
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 7: It just kind he wanted to happen. Urreays sure prepared

837
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:34,759
Speaker 7: for it. But I'm like, once again from beating inconvenience,

838
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 7: We'll be fine, folks, we know how to handle this.

839
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 3: Uh, we'll let you go on that note. Be careful

840
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 3: out there.

841
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you appreciate it. That is that's right, that's

842
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 2: a good reference. That's leavell e Neil the third. Let

843
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 2: me get to one quick text here. Tell level that

844
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 2: maybe they should send Kyler to quarterback camp because he

845
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 2: could use it more than McCarthy, given he's already been

846
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 2: in the league for seven years.

847
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 3: That's not the narrative we're looking for, young man.

848
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 5: You can hang out with Guardsy Meat, Sauce, Lockey, Maxo, Parker, Fox,

849
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 5: and Halvey at Hop House for our bracket bash watch

Speaker 5: full details now kfan dot com. Key Recolendar.

853
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 2: I mentioned much earlier in the broadcast that Guards he

854
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 2: was a lot late scratch for today's show. And I

855
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 2: say late, I don't mean unexpected. We knew he was

856
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 2: going to be unavailable, and the reason is his tenth job.

857
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,880
Speaker 2: I think we're now in double digits on jobs he

858
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 2: is offering play by play. In fact, I think the

859
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 2: first game is on forty I was about to start

860
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:58,320
Speaker 2: on forty five from the Bar and Williams Arena the

861
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 2: girls State high school basketball tournament. So guards he a

862
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 2: great opportunity to do play by play, and I think

863
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:06,320
Speaker 2: he's doing it all day tomorrow.

864
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 5: We've really been waiting for Guardsy to spread his wings

865
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 5: and try to do things. Yeah, it's good for him

866
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 5: that he's finally trying to, you know, get outside the

867
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 5: box one hundred percent. And let me get to a

868
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:23,320
Speaker 5: couple of texts in response to our discussion with Lavelle,

869
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,920
Speaker 5: how many organizations gave up on Darnald the Vike's let

870
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 5: him walk, let it go. I'm not sure I five

871
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 5: was seven.

872
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 2: Guy. What your point is? Maybe you can expound on

873
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:38,400
Speaker 2: it who you're mad at or what the point is.

874
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,279
Speaker 2: I mean, if if Darnald is being used as an

875
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 2: example of how successful we can be in sort of

876
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:50,800
Speaker 2: reclaiming a quarterback we were until we let him go,

877
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 2: It's like you want it both ways. You want to

878
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 2: take credit for it going good, but then ignore the

879
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 2: fact that we ultimately just let him go after we

880
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,359
Speaker 2: made him better and replaced him with a quarterback who

881
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 2: was awful when he was healthy last year. I'm kind

882
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 2: of confused of what Let me know what your point

883
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 2: is on that, Dan do We have the tape from

884
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,400
Speaker 2: Dan show and they signed Sam Darnald.

885
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 3: This sounds to me like a repeat. Three to one.

886
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 2: Oh Guy writes that there's guards you right now with

887
00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 2: Leo by Olsen. I don't think in the case of

888
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 2: three to one, Oh Guy, I doubt that I was

889
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 2: inspired by the Donald signing. I would say I happily

890
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,640
Speaker 2: stand by that in the basis of what we'd seen

891
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 2: to that point. But the game we're playing again, it's

892
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 2: the cherry picking game. If you're only going to remember

893
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 2: the decisions that have worked out at the quarterback position

894
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 2: for this regime, then it's easy to say, on that

895
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 2: basis alone that this was a magnificent decision by the

896
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,400
Speaker 2: Vikings to bring in Kyler Murray. It's easy then I

897
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 2: get that what happens previously doesn't prove anything. One thing

898
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,400
Speaker 2: has nothing to do with the other. These sorts of

899
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 2: decisions have been made by the Vikings forever, and guess what,

900
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,400
Speaker 2: Sometimes they've worked out at the quarterback position, and sometimes

901
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 2: they didn't. Last year didn't work out in any way,

902
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 2: shape or form, and they thought McCarthy was going to

903
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 2: be ready then to be the guy, and he wasn't

904
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:33,359
Speaker 2: so not sure. I understand, are you smoking crack? Dan

905
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:40,839
Speaker 2: Rogers zero mobility head case? Caveman called nine one one, Dan,

906
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 2: you have a closed head.

907
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 3: Injury. That's quite an allegation there.

908
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 2: I am well aware of the My job isn't to

909
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 2: take to put my finger in the air and see

910
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 2: which way the wind's blowing.

911
00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:57,520
Speaker 7: It's just not.

912
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 2: I'm not here to have a majority opinion. I'm not

913
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:05,000
Speaker 2: here to have the consensus opinion. I'm here to have

914
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 2: mine and then we can, you know, debate and disagree.

915
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 2: I thought we had a good discussion with Lovell. I've

916
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 2: said from the beginning of this show again, the Kyler

917
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:21,839
Speaker 2: Murray move is defensible as the best move available as

918
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 2: long as you don't cherry pick and only lay out

919
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 2: the evidence that suggests this is going to be the

920
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,200
Speaker 2: greatest move the Vikings have made since Brett Favre was

921
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 2: taking over a quarterback. As long as you're honest enough

922
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 2: with some of the deficiencies he's shown, some of the

923
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 2: vulnerabilities he's shown, go back and read the stories that

924
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 2: have been written previously debating the question of not his

925
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 2: talent but his ability to perfect his talent and to

926
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 2: realize said talent. That's all I ask. If we do

927
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,800
Speaker 2: that honestly, then, like I said, we can have a

928
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 2: very healthy debate. And I will absolutely respect people who say, well,

929
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 2: I won't respect if you say this is the guy

930
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 2: I wanted all along, because I won't believe you, just

931
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 2: I won't. As I said, it's a name that previously

932
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 2: people go, oh Kyler Merton. Oh, I don't want to

933
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,640
Speaker 2: mess with that. Oh that's and I don't care if

934
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:19,239
Speaker 2: the cost is thirty four million or the cost is

935
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:24,320
Speaker 2: one point five million dollars. Either looks like the Class

936
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:29,719
Speaker 2: two A semi is Perham and Providence Academy right now,

937
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 2: early first half. And yeah, our guy Guardsie is on

938
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:37,440
Speaker 2: the call. Are we allowed to do a live listening?

939
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 2: We probably can't all count. Yeah, I'm guessing we don't

940
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 2: have that kind of permission, although we would be giving

941
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,640
Speaker 2: them a little attention, although we prefer people hang with

942
00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 2: us until we're done at the.

943
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:49,359
Speaker 3: Bottom of the bottom of the hour. By the way,

944
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,920
Speaker 3: closing song that reads on my screen fifty four to

945
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:53,600
Speaker 3: thirty five that's leftover?

946
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,400
Speaker 2: Could we forget to uh? Were we supposed to be

947
00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:58,040
Speaker 2: out at the top of the six o'clock hour. Are

948
00:50:58,080 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 2: we not even on the air right now?

949
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 5: That's still commons?

950
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:03,800
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, all right, because hey, I was almost encouraged.

951
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:06,360
Speaker 2: Hey, maybe are out at six for some reason, because

952
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 2: we often don't know until later in the show. But

953
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 2: there was no reason to go out early.

954
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,239
Speaker 3: So let's do this. Let's get a pause in.

955
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 2: We will give you the highlights and low lights from

956
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 2: a very controversial show today and prepare you for what's

957
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 2: coming up later tonight. And the ongoing question, will there

958
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 2: be a live in studio Sunday Sermons.

959
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 3: Stay tuned. It's the bumper to Bumpers show rats.

960
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:40,960
Speaker 5: By American Pressure.

961
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,720
Speaker 2: I want to thank our Friday regulars today. Ben Gesling

962
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 2: joined at four point thirty and Lavelle at five thirty.

963
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 2: The entire show will be podcastable, maybe replayed on Sunday Sermons.

964
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:56,880
Speaker 2: Who's to say, depending on our circumstances. You read maybe

965
00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:00,839
Speaker 2: the most ominous report yet this is what app did

966
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 2: you tell me?

967
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:01,360
Speaker 4: So?

968
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 5: I just opened my Apple Weather and then when it

969
00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 5: says winter storm warning, I just tapped on that and

970
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:12,720
Speaker 5: what comes up is this and now it won't load naturally.

971
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:14,880
Speaker 3: It always works that way on live radio.

972
00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:17,759
Speaker 5: Of course. So what came up is this. It said

973
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 5: huge powerful winter storm on track to bring extreme snow

974
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 5: accumulations and gusty winds. Here's the kicker. Travel may become

975
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,000
Speaker 5: impossible late Saturday night and Sunday.

976
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 3: Impossible.

977
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 5: You say, not dangerous, not not recommended, not impossifficult, possible.

978
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:40,960
Speaker 2: If you get up and say I'm gonna I'm gonna

979
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 2: go from point A to point B, the weather gods

980
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 2: will might literally prevent you from getting there.

981
00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 3: It might be impossible for you to get there. That

982
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 3: would be a whopper.

983
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 7: Yeah.

984
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 2: I wonder if they use that term for the Great

985
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 2: Halloween Blizzard. I was living downtown for that one. I've

986
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 2: told that story many times. I enjoyed the hell out

987
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 2: of that one because I just sat in the high

988
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 2: rise and looked down on all the mess. It was beautiful,

989
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 2: walked everywhere, it was wonderful. Maybe they did back then,

990
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. So that's the open question whether sermons

991
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 2: will exist live. My objective and intent is to do

992
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,240
Speaker 2: the show, but I'm going to check in with Abbot.

993
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 2: I guess the other way out of the box might

994
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,800
Speaker 2: be I come in tomorrow Abbott says, here's.

995
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 3: Some equipment you can use that even you, if I

996
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,440
Speaker 3: talk you through, it might be able to use at

997
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 3: your place, just in case we get into that kind

998
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 3: of a situation. So I'll text them because I you

999
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:41,720
Speaker 3: know me, I'm.

1000
00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:44,279
Speaker 2: A big this show must go on guy, because I

1001
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 2: mocking ridicule when things get canceled needlessly, and by the way,

1002
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,399
Speaker 2: in this case, they'll probably be canceled for good reason

1003
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 2: if we literally get thirty inches or twenty five inches

1004
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:54,360
Speaker 2: of snow whatever or eighteen inches and the blowing and

1005
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:55,360
Speaker 2: the drifting.

1006
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,640
Speaker 3: But we'll take it under advisement.

1007
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,279
Speaker 2: And of course X should continue to work, so we

1008
00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:04,239
Speaker 2: should be able to communicate with people and and and

1009
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 2: and let them know. So if I did it from home,

1010
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 2: I'd probably have to do it by myself though, right

1011
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:12,440
Speaker 2: because you don't have EQUI you wouldn't have equipment, and

1012
00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:13,279
Speaker 2: you're not going to do it.

1013
00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:15,360
Speaker 3: You're part on the phone. So I have to do

1014
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:16,840
Speaker 3: like a two hour monologue to me.

1015
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:21,400
Speaker 5: The weirdest thing is would I have access to actually

1016
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 5: run things from this side of things from from your

1017
00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:30,880
Speaker 5: place before I've done it where I've kind of run

1018
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 5: the board. Yeah, but I don't know if I have

1019
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 5: enough screens and stuff got able.

1020
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 3: To do it, to do it for well, we'll find out.

1021
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:39,960
Speaker 3: We'll see how it how it indeed goes. I have

1022
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:40,640
Speaker 3: no idea.

1023
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:44,799
Speaker 5: Also, this alert just got better on the Apple well

1024
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:49,280
Speaker 5: not better. Yes, Apple Weather tapped this the winter Weather Advisory.

1025
00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 5: It says severity and colon severe. Under that it says

1026
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 5: significant threat to life or property on.

1027
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:03,440
Speaker 2: The Ever, what weather Terris is doing that? I mean,

1028
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,440
Speaker 2: it's probably somebody we know, but they don't want to

1029
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:07,000
Speaker 2: own up to it.

1030
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:10,080
Speaker 3: We'll see. I've rarely.

1031
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,120
Speaker 2: Sinsed the certainty it seems to exist here, so maybe

1032
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:18,640
Speaker 2: they know. Maybe these conditions are such that there's no

1033
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,200
Speaker 2: way this can turn into dendritic snow that never hits

1034
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,200
Speaker 2: the ground where they say, well, no, that there was

1035
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:26,400
Speaker 2: thirty inches worth of snow, but it was dendritic and

1036
00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 2: it evaporated up in the atmosphere. That was one of

1037
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,320
Speaker 2: my favorite excuses when it didn't turn out. But it

1038
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:34,799
Speaker 2: sounds like it could be real. So we'll see how

1039
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 2: that goes, and we'll we'll act accordingly. I assume how

1040
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 2: bitter with you about your fan and a man in

1041
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 2: the air efforts Yesterday being preempted when we went long

1042
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 2: to include live coverage of the Zoom Call involving Koc

1043
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 2: and rober Zinski.

1044
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:52,239
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1045
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 5: I didn't even know that it happens until I got

1046
00:55:55,120 --> 00:56:00,080
Speaker 5: the tweet from Larry Mondela guy who said that what

1047
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,960
Speaker 5: if it was the greatest episode of FOD and fan history.

1048
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:05,600
Speaker 5: But the world may never know. The only person who'll

1049
00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 5: know is me because I was the only person who

1050
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:07,400
Speaker 5: heard it.

1051
00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:07,719
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1052
00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 3: Wow, So and I.

1053
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 5: Believe it was Bill Garin from the perch from the

1054
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,560
Speaker 5: bos box. I believe that's what it was.

1055
00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:15,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, my sources say, yeah, all they did was mock

1056
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:17,680
Speaker 3: the Garan. All he did was mock me. And by

1057
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:19,279
Speaker 3: the way, was speaking of Bill Garran, I'm glad you

1058
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 3: brought that up. He sits in.

1059
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 2: This is a I think this is the first time

1060
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:25,439
Speaker 2: we've ever done it in Enough said history, which goes

1061
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:28,200
Speaker 2: back over a decade where we've had a dedicated guest

1062
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 2: basically be one of the panelists from start to finish

1063
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:34,319
Speaker 2: on the Fox nine.

1064
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:35,800
Speaker 3: Enough said set.

1065
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:40,920
Speaker 2: So it's it's me, it's Justin Guard, it's Lori Fisher,

1066
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 2: and it's the wild President of Hockey Operations, Bill Garan.

1067
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:50,040
Speaker 2: For entire thirty minutes on Foxneine. I believe it'll start

1068
00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:53,719
Speaker 2: after their coverage concludes of the World Baseball Classics of

1069
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 2: the times a little bit fluid, but you can get

1070
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 2: it via the Fox Local app at any point, I believe.

1071
00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:03,799
Speaker 2: And also I think tonight should be on Fox nine plus.

1072
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:07,920
Speaker 2: It went I think very well. Not surprising that Garren

1073
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,040
Speaker 2: would do good in that kind of live environment. He

1074
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:12,960
Speaker 2: was great on a number of different subjects.

1075
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:15,680
Speaker 3: We had fun including him in the mix once we

1076
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:17,760
Speaker 3: got the camera angles kind of figured out that was

1077
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 3: a bit of the challenge early. But I hardly recommend

1078
00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:24,840
Speaker 3: you give that a listen, hockey fans and non hockey

1079
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 3: fans alike. I think we'll all be very very pleased

1080
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:33,120
Speaker 3: by that tomorrow. Beyond the pond, Beyond the ponds, what

1081
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 3: do we got? Do we have any breakaways?

1082
00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 7: They do?

1083
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 3: They have a handful, But are they You're not in it? No,

1084
00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 3: I'm in it.

1085
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:41,120
Speaker 5: I have my breakaways.

1086
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 7: Bit.

1087
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,240
Speaker 3: Oh, you sounded like you're almost trying to distance yourself

1088
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 3: from it.

1089
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:47,480
Speaker 5: Oh, although I'm sure Pat mcletty would like that.

1090
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 2: We should also mention tonight from the West Coast on

1091
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:56,520
Speaker 2: the flagship, not to mention the iHeartRadio app Timberwolves must

1092
00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 2: win situations. They've dropped three in a row and not

1093
00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 2: been competitive than any of the three. They're taking on

1094
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:08,560
Speaker 2: the Golden State Warriors in San Francisco, California, and Steph

1095
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 2: Curry still out, so this is obviously a game that

1096
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 2: you're supposed to win. The urgency level should be high.

1097
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 2: Great deal of concern with how they've competed lately, especially

1098
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:26,160
Speaker 2: putrid defensive performance most recently, and great concern right now

1099
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:30,760
Speaker 2: about your second best player, Julius Randall, who was a

1100
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 2: revelation through most of the playoffs until frankly we got

1101
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 2: to the conference finals and then things kind of changed.

1102
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 2: But can he get back to that place, because, let's

1103
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:43,960
Speaker 2: face it, whatever Anthony Edwards does, the Wolves are a

1104
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 2: little bit toast if Julius can't rediscover his form from

1105
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,200
Speaker 2: a year ago. We finished strong last year, but I

1106
00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:54,040
Speaker 2: remember played a lot softer schedule down the stretch than

1107
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:54,760
Speaker 2: we are this time.

1108
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:57,120
Speaker 3: Thanks for watching, Thank you for listening.

1109
00:58:57,200 --> 00:59:00,560
Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll name the nonami on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,

1110
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,920
Speaker 2: and we will talk to you, I hope Sunday morning

1111
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:05,920
Speaker 2: at nine mon
