Speaker 2: He Is Tanna Be.

12
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 3: It was a very historic weekend here at the Fan

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:43,160
Speaker 3: on Saturday.

14
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:48,319
Speaker 2: Much to my chagrin disappointment, Fantasy Football Weekly the very

15
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: last episode ever aired this past Saturday. I guess the

16
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 2: word the best word to describe a Saturday show was emotional.

17
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 3: I heard that grown men were crying as they.

18
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: I listened to the episode. I'm a big fan of

19
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly. It's one of my favorite podcasts.

20
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 2: As they bid a do to one another after a

21
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 2: hell of a run it started. It was nineteen ninety

22
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 2: five here on the Fan, and I was a part

23
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 2: of it. I remember it. That's why I remember when

24
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 2: I started Eiety five.

25
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 3: Yes, I was. I was the go to guy.

26
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 2: When they needed to have assistance on shows. For instance,

27
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: they wanted me to work with Craig Warreon because Craig

28
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 2: had had no radio experience. Craig Chad Hartman did Tee

29
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 2: de Green on Tuesday nights when the station first started.

30
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 2: He did not want to spend Tuesday nights talking golf.

31
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: He recommended Craig Warring, the master professional and now a

32
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: very dear friend of mine. Also remember the Minnesota Golf

33
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame.

34
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: I was the one that.

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 2: Presented Craig. He asked me if I would present him

36
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: at the Hall of Fame ceremony. That was emotional for

37
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: me that he actually asked me if I would do

38
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: the little speech about Craig. And they asked me, hey,

39
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 2: would you be interested in co hosting te degree with Craig,

40
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: you know, because they wanted a radio guy that knew

41
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: how to get in and out of breaks and such

42
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: like that set the show up everything. I said, sure,

43
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: I'd be happy to do that. Then I was approached by.

44
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 3: Management.

45
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 2: They said, hey, we want to do a Tuesday Night

46
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 2: Viking show with the superstar Mike Morris, a Vikings related

47
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 2: show for an hour or two. I think it was

48
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: two hours, six to six to eight, I believe, and

49
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: we wanted.

50
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 3: To do it.

51
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 2: We're gonna do it at Joe Sensors, and we're gonna

52
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 2: call it Vikings Uncensored at Joe.

53
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 3: Now, I get it.

54
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: I had no idea the show was called Vikings Uncensored

55
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 2: because it was that Joe Sensors.

56
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 3: Get it.

57
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: I remember Doug Westman at a promo running that says,

58
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 2: Tuesday Night, since Vikings Uncensored at Joe sens get it.

59
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 3: And I thought, to us, get what.

60
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: There's nothing to get except get over to Joe Censors

61
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: to watch the show. But they asked if I would,

62
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 2: if I would again, because the superstar had no radio

63
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: experience as far as taking it in and out of breaks.

64
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 3: They needed somebody to do that.

65
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: And then the station also asked me if I would

66
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: participate in a show called Fantasy Football Weekly with Paul

67
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 2: Charching and Rob fifthean same exact situation. Paul and Rob

68
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 2: had never done radio before. So the the the the

69
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: getting in and you know, the formulaaics of radio. They

70
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: they they weren't familiar with it, and would I do that?

71
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 2: I said sure, and we used to do the show

72
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 2: out at Mystic Lake early in the morning. We were

73
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 2: at eight o'clock in the morning was when the show

74
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 2: would start, and I would.

75
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 3: It's funny.

76
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 2: I would during breaks, I'd go over to the slot

77
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 2: machines and play slots. Right, you couldn't go to a

78
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: blackjack table or anything, because you know, you have to

79
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: get in and out too quick. But all of a sudden,

80
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 2: I go, let's go to back more fantasy football. After this,

81
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 2: we'd go to break and we were right by the

82
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 2: slow machines. I'd go over there and put money in

83
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 2: and play slow machines. And then finally, much like I

84
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 2: would compare myself, I think I was the fantasy football

85
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 2: whisperer or the radio host whisperer, teaching these people how

86
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 2: to walk on their own right.

87
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 3: It was like fifthy in and charts.

88
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: We're on radio training wheels, and I took the training

89
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: wheels off and then they were able to go their

90
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 2: own way.

91
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,119
Speaker 4: We're getting them to their lips with the microphone.

92
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: Exactly much like the feet with the eyes from McCarthy.

93
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: The same thing the lips with the microphone, and they

94
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 2: were able to do it. And then finally I said,

95
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: you know what, proud of you guys, man, I think

96
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 2: you're ready to go on your own. And then I

97
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 2: stepped aside because you know me, I don't like the attention,

98
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 2: I don't like the adulation.

99
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 3: I don't like any of that. So I stepped away

100
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 3: and they did the show.

101
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 2: And so after all those years, it came to a close,

102
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: and during a segment of the show, Paul Charchi and

103
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: spent some time thank you all the people he worked with.

104
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 3: I thought we'd give that a listen and see what

105
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 3: he has to say about me.

106
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 4: I don't know Ferre in the exact right spot you

107
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 4: wanted to be, but hold on you absolutely.

108
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 5: As I mentioned at the outset of the show, Fantasy

109
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 5: Football Weekly is turning a new page. Fantasy Life owns

110
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 5: the show, and starting next week they'll bring you a

111
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 5: new version of Fantasy Football Weekly, hopefully launching another thirty

112
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 5: one years. I want to thank the various stations that

113
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 5: picked up Fantasy Football Weekly and syndication. It's been amazing

114
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 5: to hear our show in markets across the country, and

115
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 5: a very heartfelt thanks to my co host Matt Harrison,

116
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,520

00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 5: Fantasy Football Weekly Listeners is a labor of love.

118
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 6: I know you.

119
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 5: Can hear the absurd level of preparation and dedication that

120
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 5: goes into every episode. They have brought insight, laughs, and

121
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 5: hopefully some fantasy football wins you might not have otherwise

122
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 5: had perhaps exactly nine of those fantasy football wins.

123
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 3: He done mentioning the people.

124
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 5: These guys aren't co workers, they are friends. My love

125
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 5: and camaraderie that we have between us was obvious to you,

126
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 5: the Listeners. If I get hit by a cement mixer,

127
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 5: I would like you guys to be my pallbearers, which

128
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 5: would be fitting since you've been carrying my carcass on

129
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 5: this show for years.

130
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 6: Thank you also to the past hosts.

131
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 5: I sincerely apologize anybody I have missed, but I think

132
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 5: I've got them over thirty one years, John the Commissioner,

133

Speaker 5: Heber Meyer, Rob Fifthy, and Rick Kamlo, Bo Mitchell, Jeff

134
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 5: Haydoc Ben Vickers, Christian Peterson.

135
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 6: John Tuvey, and even Colin mc cockney.

136
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 5: Robbie Rosenhaus has been our engineer for the past several years.

137
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 6: Keep going there.

138
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 5: He's helped us with the absurd collige An sounds on

139
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 5: the show. His dedication has made this show better. I

140
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 5: want to thank kfa n's original station manager, Doug Westerman,

141
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 5: who greenlt Fantasy Football Weekly in its earliest roughest form

142
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 5: when there was not any Fantasy Yes, I.

143
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 3: Remember that.

144
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 5: We were just a who should I start calling show

145
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 5: back then, and Doug put Fantasy Football Weekly on the air,

146
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 5: and he kept us on the air. In our first years,

147
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 5: Fantasy Football Weekly was a live show in front of

148
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 5: an early arriving Saturday morning audience on site at mystical

149
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 5: La Twin Cities, and our bleary eyed, unpaid intern would

150
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 5: arrive at the casinos in the morning to set up

151
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 5: our ISDN connection and try to keep us on the

152
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 5: air from the casino, which was a surprisingly tough challenge

153
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 5: of the nineties. Over the years, that intern rose through

154
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 5: the ranks, got promoted repeatedly, and eventually turned into objectively

155
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 5: the single best station manager in the country, and that

156
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 5: is Chad Abboit a amazing Chad Abbit has been connected

157
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 5: to the show for all thirty one years. His support,

158
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 5: advice promotion of Fantasy Football Weekly has been invaluable, including

159
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 5: helping with our syndication and eventual micro.

160
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: Up.

161
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 6: Thank you so so much, Chad Abbatt.

162
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 3: I adore you, oh my gosh.

163
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 6: But most of all, I want to thank you.

164
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 7: Here we go.

165
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 6: You are listeners together.

166
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 5: We've had years of laughs, wins, losses, and bowel loosening

167
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,119
Speaker 5: levels of existential dread.

168
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: He's getting emotional, isn't he.

169
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 6: You've been there for all of it.

170
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 5: Your loyalty to Fantasy Football Weekly was the driving force

171
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 5: behind all of our episodes, by my count, eight hundred

172
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 5: and eighteen of them. I was a part of a

173
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 5: bunk a final peacock for you. Third ear, listeners of

174
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 5: Fantasy Football Weekly, just worry man?

175
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 3: Is that some bit from the show I have listened

176
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 3: in a while?

177
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: Well, he must get to me kidding, No, it's over.

178
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: That's where it ends.

179
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 2: He mentioned every single person that's worked here radio station, pretty.

180
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 3: Much, people that worked at Mystic Lake Casino.

181
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,839
Speaker 2: He was mentioning the people that on on the janitorial

182
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 2: crew that clean up the radio station at night.

183
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 3: He doesn't mention me though.

184
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 2: The show was first Fantasy Football Week in starring the

185
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 2: common Man Dan Cole, along with Paul Charging and Rob Fifthian.

186
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 4: You've got to be kidding me.

187
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 3: He must did he forget? I see, I get it. Okay,

188
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 3: that's how soon they forget.

189
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 4: I mean, I mean, I'm staying with you. You meant

190
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 4: so much, you sent you like a personal text or call.

191
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 3: Didn't get even on the right. No, no, didn't get

192
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 3: a text or a call.

193
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 2: Sad really well with that. I guess we'll just come,

194
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 2: We'll take a break. And I'm getting a little emotion. Launch.

195
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 3: I was left out of Thank Yous. I've got feelings too.

196
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 3: I feel like I was a big artist. Launch a

197
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 3: fantasy football weekly.

198
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 2: You know I'm not an.

199
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 8: I gotta go to.

200
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:29,640

207
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 3: I'm told by a couple of thirteen fourteen people tend

208
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 3: to be that. Indeed, you cannot use a goal post

209
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 3: for celebrations. That is the problem. That is Jamo.

210
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 2: They call him how they call him in Detroit, and

211
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 2: the nickname for the things everything is Jamo, so they

212
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 2: Jamo decided to use. If you remember tennyb I've brought

213
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 2: up on a number of occasions as a as an

214
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 2: astute observer of the Lions, I've always kind of wondered

215
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 2: about him. I mean, he had to play yesterday. You

216
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 2: watching that game when he gets the ball and who

217
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 2: did the game was Collinsworth and he was right. It's

218
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 2: not even so much about you know, doing the fly

219
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 2: patterns and beating the receiver down the field, getting it

220
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 2: on those crossing routes.

221
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then the.

222
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: Ability to just his acceleration and his speed. You can't

223
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 2: catch you. Your mama can't catch him, your daddy can't

224
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 2: catch him. The police can't catch him. They can't stop him.

225
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 2: But he also makes the boneheaded play. There was the

226
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 2: game against the Commanders last year in the playoffs. Not

227
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 2: that this play probably would have changed the complexion of

228
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: down to the Commanders, but Ben Johnson did the old

229
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: had the wide receiver throw a pass right. Well, what

230
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 2: you need to tell the wide receiver though, is if

231
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 2: the if the guy you're if the intended target is

232
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 2: being quadruple covered, don't throw the ball, just throw it

233
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: away or run with your speed. He decided to throw it.

234
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: And if you remember the play, it was funny. We

235
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 2: almost look like volleyball because there were so many defensive

236
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 2: backs up there. There was a there was there was

237
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 2: a bump, set spike, and then the interception.

238
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 3: So four guys touched the ball.

239
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 2: They did a volleyball celebration before the interception was even

240
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 2: a was were celebrating before the interception even happened.

241
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 3: So anyway, so that's what I'm being told.

242
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: Also, a couple of people have pointed out we were

243
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 2: talking about Long Island iced teas. Half a shot of vodka,

244
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 2: half a half a shot of gin, half a shot

245
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 2: of light Rum, half a shot of triple sec Phil was.

246
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 3: Sweet and so our mix, and then add a dash

247
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:02,839
Speaker 3: of cola.

248
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: To give the iced tea appearance, because you know, iced

249
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 2: tea has sort of like a little bit of a

250
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: brown color too, because the tea leaves are brown.

251
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 3: I think is how it works all the tea leaves

252
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 3: are brown.

253
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 7: Are brown?

254
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, this guy is gray.

255
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 2: Here's a another text message courtesy of the Bride.

256
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 3: That's the news sounders. Sorry, there's no breaking news. I

257
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 3: have none for you.

258
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 2: Common crying about having to do eight more weeks of

259
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 2: Tea Green and passing off like he cares about Fantasy

260
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 2: Football's classic. They're not going to extend Tita Green for

261
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 2: eight more weeks. I wish they would actually, I like

262
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: going to the golf course and talking golf and playing golf.

263
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: They're not going to extend. I mean they're trying to.

264
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 2: They've they're they've tried to eliminate Tea Green for years.

265
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: But it generates I means, it doesn't generate the most

266
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 2: money of uh. I mean of the of the various

267
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 2: specialty radio shows. You know, we have specialty radio shows

268
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:13,680
Speaker 2: in the Zone, Fan Outdoors, Fantasy Football Weekly, Tita Green,

269
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 2: Sunday Sermons.

270
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 3: Et cetera.

271
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 2: They are all sorts of what you used to host

272
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 2: them beyond the be on the Pond. All of those

273
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 2: shows are our ancillary shows or auxiliary shows or extra

274
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 2: show specialty shows, and they all generate money.

275
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 3: And Tita Green does generate money, but they always want

276
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 3: to cut it off.

277
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 2: Matter of fact, they Abbott added one in August and

278
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 2: I complained about having to do an extra show.

279
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 3: So it's quite frankly.

280
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 2: It's it's it's just really not to I'll do whatever

281
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 2: they want me to do.

282
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 3: I do like doing them, quite frankly.

283
00:14:49,520 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 2: Here, here's hold on, I'm sorry, there's so many of

284
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 2: them coming in here. Oh, it says, not only do

285
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 2: they not recognize your work on Fantasy Football Weekly, but

286
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 2: they don't recognize your anniversaries working there either. Do they

287
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 2: even know that you're on the air three hours a day.

288
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 2: I'm not sure they do. The way they forget about

289
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 2: y'all is crazy.

290
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 3: Haha. I love when you do these. Well, I don't

291
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 3: want to do them.

292
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 2: Oh well, look who called in Paul Charchy in host

293
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 2: of the now defunk Fantasy Football Weekly.

294
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 3: How are you, my friend?

295
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 9: Well, I'm doing well.

296
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 10: I think I think have been grossly taken out of

297
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 10: context here. Even though you've played the entirety of my speech,

298
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 10: I'm still going to claim it was entirely out of context.

299
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 3: Well, what do you mean it was entirely out of content?

300
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: You were you were, you were recognizing and thanking all

301
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 2: the previous.

302
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 3: Hosts of the show, and I was the very first

303
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 3: tust you.

304
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 2: Rob fifty of my self live for Mystic Lake Casino.

305
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 2: And then yeah, I didn't hear my name mentioned and

306
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 2: there at all chat abb but the the intern engineer

307
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 2: was mentioned, but I wasn't mentioned yet.

308
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 7: That is up actually correct.

309
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 10: Now, what you may have forgotten is that at the

310
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 10: end of that first season, and by the way, we're

311
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 10: unclear if it was ninety four or ninety five, and maybe.

312
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 9: You have better memory than I do.

313
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 7: You think you sort of play it safe and use.

314
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 9: Ninety five as our presumed time.

315
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 10: You may have forgotten that when we finally got to

316
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 10: the end of that first year of taking nothing but

317
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 10: who should I start calls from Mystic Lake at eight

318
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 10: in the morning, you turned to me and said, let

319
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 10: us never speak of this again. And I took that

320
00:16:55,200 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 10: literally really just sort of erased your participation from this

321
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 10: show from my mind, scrubbed it completely. And I don't

322
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,239
Speaker 10: blame you for not wanting to be a part of it.

323
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 7: I don't blame you.

324
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:14,360
Speaker 2: I not the way it was phrased. I didn't say,

325
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 2: I don't know you're misremembering. It's sort of like how

326
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 2: you misremembered how you booted me from your fantasy football

327
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 2: league the year after I finished five hundred, which the

328
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 2: previous year I won the championship. But you couldn't bump

329
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 2: me from the show or from your league because I

330
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 2: won the championship, and then the next year when I didn't,

331
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 2: I was not invited back.

332
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 3: My franchise lasted two years, and so it's correct. I'm

333
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 3: not saying that I did. I'm not saying that I didn't.

334
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 2: I wouldn't deny that I didn't want to continue doing

335
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: Fantasy Football Weekly, but I was a host of the show.

336
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 2: I was there at the very beginning, the very first year,

337
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,439
Speaker 2: and I have to admit I was taking a little aback.

338
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 4: I was.

339
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 2: I got emotional here you have heard. I don't know

340
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: if you were listening, but I got a I started

341
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 2: to choke up. Not I thought I was an important

342
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: part of the beginning of Fantasy Football Weekly, and I

343
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 2: was cast aside as if I didn't even exist.

344
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's that's basically true.

345
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 7: In a lot of ways. In my mind, you did

346
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 7: not exist.

347
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 10: And.

348
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,679
Speaker 9: I think that's probably pretty accurate. Now, your role on

349
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 9: the show was really just called screener you would take.

350
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 9: You would bring somebody up.

351
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 7: On the show.

352
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 10: You'd be like, hey Bob, you're on the van, and

353
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 10: then I would do all the work myself, Rob Fifthian,

354
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,959
Speaker 10: we'd actually answer the questions. So in my mind, you

355
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 10: are more of a call screener than an actual host

356
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 10: that show.

357
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 2: Well, your memory again is really bad, because without me,

358
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 2: there is no Fantasy Football Weekly, there's no guillotine. You're

359
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 2: not a multi millionaire, you're not living in Utah. I

360
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 2: was the driving force line. I was the guy that

361
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 2: would say, hey, welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly on

362
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 2: the common Man Dan Cole along with Rob Fifthian and

363
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 2: Paul Charchy and what do we have?

364
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 3: Now's it?

365
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 7: So?

366
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 3: I was there and I certainly added my two cents.

367
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 3: I thought I did it. I thought I was instrumental.

368
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 2: I thought it was I was Kevin O'Connell, you were

369
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy.

370
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 3: I was showing why do I why.

371
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,719
Speaker 9: Do I have to be the JJ McCarthy in this relationship?

372
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 7: I mean, can't can't you be.

373
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 11: The JJ McCarn I could be the Kevin O'Connell.

374
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 3: No, because I was the veteran.

375
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 2: They asked, because again, much like some of the other

376
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 2: shows on the fan, the hosts You and fifty and

377
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,959
Speaker 2: had no radio experience, so they wanted to have somebody

378
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 2: that could lead it, get it in and out of break,

379
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 2: set it up professionally. I did it for Tita Green,

380
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 2: I did it for Vikings on Censored at Joe at

381
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 2: Joe Censors and I also did it for Fantasy Football Weekly.

382
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,959
Speaker 2: That's why I was hired. I was I was, I was.

383
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: I was talk show host whisperer. I was like Kevin O'Connell.

384
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 2: You guys were on training wheels, and then I got

385
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 2: you guys, and then once you grew sprouted your wings,

386
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 2: I moved aside because I knew it was your show

387
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,919
Speaker 2: and it was it was about you'd I had I

388
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 2: have the wine, the women in the song. I had

389
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 2: my own radio show. I didn't need Fantasy Football Weekly more.

390
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 2: I did it for you and Rob. That's why I

391
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 2: did it.

392
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 9: I love that us.

393
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 7: You're a king maker of sorts.

394
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 2: Yes, really exactly right, And that's all you needed to say.

395
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 2: Hey want to thank Common for helping us spread our

396
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 2: wings that every begin just a quick little mention would

397
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 2: have been kind of nice.

398
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 10: Now, how about this, though, Common, how many segments have

399
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 10: my preposterous statements over the year, or for you.

400
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 12: There's been a lot, a lot, a lot I have

401
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 12: given back in multiple ways, far more segments.

402
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 7: I've given you than you've.

403
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 10: Given me because of the preposterous statement tournament. And you

404
00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 10: might be thinking, how many more segments?

405
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 2: Hundreds, hundreds, Well, congratulate, congratulations on a thirty plus year run.

Speaker 3: You you you you turned.

407
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 2: A a just a hobby that people had. I don't

408
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 2: even know who first invented fantasy football, if it was

409
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 2: you or if it was somebody from from somewhere else,

410
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 2: but it's it turned into a burgeoning is that the

411
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,359

00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,840

Speaker 3: Not trading your guys?

461
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll do the condensed version. Because Paul and I

462
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 2: were becoming friends and working together on fantasy football weekly,

463
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 2: he invited me to participate in his fantasy football league.

464
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 3: Quite the honor.

465
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 2: I'd only played with my buddies, my old drinking buddies, right,

466
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 2: my hate Ashbury guys. And what we would do is

467
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 2: we'd get together somewhere, we'd do a draft. We'd go

468
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 2: our separate ways and then just submit our lineups every week.

469
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 2: I was the clearinghouse guy. I did a little I

470
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 2: did a fantasy football newsletter that actually typed on a

471
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 2: regular type or we had no computers at us back

472
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety ninety one. I would type it up

473
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 2: that I'd make copies of it at the radio station

474
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 2: I worked at Forest Lake, fold up the two or

475
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 2: three different pages, and I'd stick it inside an envelope,

476
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 2: and I'd mail it out to each guy. And I

477
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,360
Speaker 2: would do things like I would have like one of

478
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,639
Speaker 2: our team members was Sean o'marra, the late Shan o'mera,

479
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 2: and so then I would have a story with a

480
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 2: quote from him, and then I would cut out a picture

481
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 2: of like Chris Carter and then put it in the

482
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 2: newsletter and then identify that as Sean o'marra. And then

483
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 2: of course I would offer a correction the following week.

484
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 2: I would say, last week's ed dish week correctly inidentified

485
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 2: Chris Carter as Sean o'marra. We regret the error, right,

486
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,199
Speaker 2: So we had a lot of they was mostly just

487
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 2: done all tongue and chee can have a lot of fun, right,

488
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 2: and we I don't ever remember ever making a trade,

489
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 2: and if we did, they were few and far between.

490
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 3: Right, I met.

491
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 2: Charges draft they're trading during the draft. They're a high level.

492
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 2: They're so far beyond what I'd ever played before. I

493
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 2: was kind of taken aback. But I didn't even know

494
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 2: that that occurred in fantasy football drafts.

495
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 3: So like, let's say ten, let's say you draft.

496
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 2: You look over to charts right after your picking, go Now,

497
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 2: all trades are the guy I just drafted for one

498
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 2: of your guys or a.

499
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 3: Pick or something like that, and I'm just like, whoa.

500
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: These guys are really into it.

501
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 2: So the draft goes, I go my merry way and

502
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 2: start playing and then win a game or two, and

503
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 2: I'm getting calls from the other guys in the league

504
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 2: and they're into it, you know, they're they're asking me

505
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 2: if I'm interested in making a trade, And a lot

506
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 2: of them are those where like let's say I got

507
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 2: Josh Allen as quarterback and they go, hey, hey, Dan,

508
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 2: I see you got Josh Allen as your quarterback and

509
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 2: he's gonna have a buye in two weeks, so you're

510
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 2: gonna need a backup quarterback. How about this, I'll trade

511
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 2: you JJ McCarthy for Saquon Barkley. What do you think,

512
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 2: Because you're gonna need a quarterback. They were actually trying

513
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 2: to bamboozle. Yeah, right, you offering me these herschel Walker

514
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 2: type trades and I'm just not I think I'll pass

515
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,640
Speaker 2: on that. I'm kind of fine with the way I am.

516
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 2: And next week would come on and get a couple

517
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 2: more trade offers and I dismissed all of it. Well,

518
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 2: then I get a call like eight ten, twelve weeks

519
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 2: into the season from Chart. You're going, you know, we're

520
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 2: kind of wondering. Guys in the league like the trade

521
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,199
Speaker 2: and we're wondering why you're not making any trades. I

522
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 2: go on, I'm twelve and oh, kind of like my roster.

523
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 2: I was undefeated, I was winning every game. But he

524
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,439
Speaker 2: made me feel bad. I thought, well, everybody doesn't like

525
00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 2: me now, So I got bullied into making a trade,

526
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 2: which actually worked in my favorite because I traded Sanders

527
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 2: and a couple of other players for a couple of

528
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 2: other players and Jerry Rice. And I played Jerry Rice

529
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 2: in the championship game and he caught four touchdown passes

530
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 2: that I won. Called charges fantasy football, the guy that

531
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 2: knew the least about fantasy football, who cared less than

532
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,880
Speaker 2: any of the other people, just playing a long yeah, yeah,

533
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: I kind of camaraderything to play with charge. Well, then

534
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 2: they had to invite me back for the next season, right,

535
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 2: even though nobody wanted me.

536
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 3: But you can't. You're the champ. You have to bring

537
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 3: so the it might be back.

538
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 2: And I had a five hundred season or a couple

539
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 2: of games, and I never got invited for a three season.

540
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 3: That was it. I was done.

541
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 4: That's part of the club.

542
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 3: Why aren't you making any trades? Like what, I'm twelve and.

543
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 7: Oh, just so much fun.

544
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 3: I'm twelve and oh why would I make a trade?

545
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: But Ax, that'd be like saying, you know, somebody call

546
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: up you know, a call you know, Kansas City and

547
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: go would you trade as Pat Mahomes?

548
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 3: Well, no, we kind of like where we're at.

549
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 2: We won a couple of big games with them, and

550
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 2: he's really good, so we just think we'll keep them.

551
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 2: Why would I trade any of my pleasant winning game

552
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 2: after game after game. So anyway, one other thing on

553
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 2: the charts thing, and this is from Remove the Internet Interim.

554
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 3: That's what I had to do.

555
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 2: From Remove the Interim label, guy says, if charts learn

556
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 2: anything from you, it was the absurd level of prep

557
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 2: work and dedication from your craft.

558
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 3: And that's what it was because I did put a

559
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 3: lot of prep work. I always loved that question about that.

560
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 2: Someone else sent a text message and common I was.

561
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 3: At Tendabee.

562
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 2: I was sorry, I was reading, I said comment. I

563
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 2: was referring to myself only because I was looking. I

564
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 2: was reading an email. But it's not the one or

565
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 2: text message. It's not the one I want. It was

566
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 2: an I wish I could find it here. It's it's

567
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 2: long gone. It was basically when we're you're talking about,

568
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 2: you know, the.

569
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 3: Kevin O'Connell continually talking.

570
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 13: About the the base, the teaching him the basics of

571
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 13: playing quarterback right, the the the the elementary principles of it,

572
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 13: aligning your eyes and your feed and.

573
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 2: This and posture and all that. And it's like, and

574
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 2: someone said, you because we talked about this, he went

575
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 2: to that IMG Academy for quarterbacks. Isn't that where you

576
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 2: learn all those things? I mean, look, I'm not I

577
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 2: don't want to pick on the kid, I really don't,

578
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 2: but I'm more picking on the head coach.

579
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 3: Shouldn't these things have been taught to him at I AMG.

580
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 2: Shouldn't shouldn't the the mechanics of playing the position already

581
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 2: be a foregone conclusion. He he's been playing since he

582
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 2: was a little kid. That's all he's ever done is

583
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 2: played football, went to the IMG Academy, played high school football.

584
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 2: Where was it college? He lost as one game with

585
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 2: Michigan or was it or was it high school? Because

586
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 2: they'd only lost one game in all the games he

587
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 2: started quarterback in high school in pros or high school

588
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,239
Speaker 2: in college. So he either lost one high school game

589
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 2: or one college game. You would think the mechanics would

590
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 2: be established by then.

591
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 4: Also, and I've said this a billion times, this is

592
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 4: year two of them. Here.

593
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: I get he was injured during the season, but even

594
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: once he gets to the regular season, he's on the

595
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: scout team behind Sam Darnold last year anyway, most likely,

596
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: But you've had two off seasons, two training camps to

597
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 1: work with him on this stuff.

598
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 3: Case closed, You're right, I don't know. And then.

599
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 2: It begs the question you heard the quote I read

600
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 2: from West Phillips where West basically said the Vikings offensive

601
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 2: coordinated by title anyways, where he said, look said, no,

602
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 2: we're not just.

603
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 3: Just making a game plan.

604
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 2: It's the number one goal of this organization isn't to

605
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 2: try to develop JJ McCarthy.

606
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 3: I'm paraphrase and he didn't say it that. I can

607
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 3: dig up the quote if you want me to, but.

608
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 2: Basically, we got to do no matter how complicated it is,

609
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 2: we have to do the things we need to do

610
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 2: with that we think will help the team win. It's

611
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 2: more than about developing JJ McCarthy. And I think some

612
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 2: fans lose sight of that because they're just fans and

613
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 2: they know they're going to be here next year as

614
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 2: a fan, five years, ten years, fifty to twenty years.

615
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 2: You know, most people are lifelong fans of their teams,

616
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 2: right well, yeah, but that doesn't sit very well with

617
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,959
Speaker 2: Harrison Smith or Justin Jefferson or any of the other

618
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 2: players that are you know, especially like the offensive lineman

619
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 2: and defensive line. Of the guys are laying on the

620
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 2: line and tearing up their knees and they're injury riddled.

621
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 3: All year long. It's like, I want the kid to

622
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 3: have a nice career and.

623
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 2: I wanted to help us win, but it's not just

624
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 2: about him, and that becomes a problem. So then you

625
00:31:56,080 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 2: have to decide, and look, I'm not asking for him

626
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 2: to be ben sure to give up on yet. Yeah,

627
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 2: I don't think you can't. I think that is five

628
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 2: games is way too early for anything.

629
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 4: There were some people during that game yesterday and that wonder.

630
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 2: They want Yeah, yeah, Well, remember the coach wouldn't answer

631
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 2: that question yesterday. During the news conference immediately following in

632
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 2: the game, after the twenty minute cooling off period, he

633
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 2: was asked by one of the local media and he said,

634
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not going to respond to that.

635
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 3: I'm not going to talk about that right now.

636
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 2: Whether that means he just doesn't want to even give

637
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 2: it any life you want to breathe any life into

638
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 2: a quarterback controversy, or if maybe he really was.

639
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 3: Thinking about it but then decided against it.

640
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 2: If you do, I was talking to do somebody's watching

641
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 2: the game, he'd mentioned, I wonder if you go to Brosemer,

642
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 2: I go If you do that, that's almost you can't

643
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 2: he almost can't go back. I mean you can and

644
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 2: probably would, But I mean, if if you're telling the

645
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 2: kid struggling in his fifth game, kid, we got to

646
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 2: get you out of there because you don't know what

647
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 2: the hell you're doing.

648
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 3: We're putting Brosemer in that's going to really shatter the case.

649
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, isn't it.

650
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: Maybe this isn't a good example because this player hasn't

651
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: exactly flourished. But Carolina did it with Bryce Young last year.

652
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: They set him down for a couple of games yea

653
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: early in the season and let Andy Dalton take over

654
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: the reins and then Bryce Young came back later the season,

655
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: did better towards the end of the year. Now that

656
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 1: hasn't necessarily carried over. Now there's six and four won yesterday.

657
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: But did you have a really good game?

658
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 4: You did have a good day.

659
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I thought I saw. So you're right,

660
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 3: you can do that, you know.

661
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 2: And again when we're talking about can we worry about

662
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 2: shattering a kid's confidence when there's fifty two other people

663
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 2: on the team, there's two owners, by the way, and

664
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 2: then there's front office people, and you know, there's there's

665
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 2: a lot of people that are that are invested in

666
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 2: this in this club.

667
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 3: I just saw where who's the kid that's been starting

668
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 3: for the Jets.

669
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 4: Well, it's been Justin Fields.

670
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 3: And he's now being benched. Yes, I just saw that.

671
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 3: They and according to Justin Fields, again.

672
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: They were going to set him a couple of weeks ago,

673
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: and then to Rod Taylor got hurt. Okay, so the

674
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: owner was basically calling out justin fields publicly. Yes, and

675
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: then Taylor gets hurt and they had to go back

676
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: to him, and then he had his best game of

677
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: the year.

678
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 3: So it's it's it's.

679
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 2: And then you know the the example we bring up

680
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 2: all the time is the Trey Lance kid. I don't

681
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 2: even remember who he was drafted by, but the Niners.

682
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 2: I thought they traded for him.

683
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: No, they traded picks, three draft picks, three first round

684
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: draft picks to move up to get them.

685
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 3: Move up again.

686
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 2: Okay, so they draft them. They didn't waste too much

687
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 2: time they didn't like. You know, how long did they

688
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 2: let him? Did they give him a basic tryou from

689
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 2: the starting position before they said it ain't working.

690
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 3: And we're moving on with our lives. It wasn't too terribly.

691
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 1: I don't think he started right away if I recalled,

692
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 1: but he might have had some injury stuff too.

693
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 4: But was that was that so Garoppolo?

694
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 12: Then?

695
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 3: I think it may have been, but I don't remember.

696
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 2: I do remember that he didn't. It wasn't like they said,

697
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 2: we got back it's not like they said, we got

698
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 2: to give this guy three years. They they they pulled

699
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 2: the plug. They they they recognized the error of their waves,

700
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 2: of their ways.

701
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:59,720
Speaker 3: And they moved on to another quarterback. Now that becomes

702
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 3: the question.

703
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 2: The conundrum is how long do you continue to play

704
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,720
Speaker 2: him with the way the season is now. And again

705
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 2: it's that idea of you got to be careful because

706
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 2: other players on the team aren't here to babysit this kid,

707
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 2: because they've got their careers, their hopes, their aspirations, their contracts,

708
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 2: their health and welfare. They can't just worry about the kids.

709
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 2: So it's a balancing act to how long.

710
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 3: Do you wait?

711
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,399
Speaker 2: And then if you don't have another option, I don't

712
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 2: know if Roseman is a realistic option.

713
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 3: We like the kid. He went from New Hampshire.

714
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 2: He had one year in big time college football and

715
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 2: he played really well for the Gophers. He had a

716
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 2: nice season, and then the Vikings like what they saw

717
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 2: when they watched them play with the Gophers. They like

718
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 2: what they saw during a tryout or whatever it was,

719
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 2: and then they went ahead and sign him as an

720
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 2: undrafted free agent. And so maybe he could be really good,

721
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 2: But you know, the chance is that he's going to

722
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 2: blossom into an everyday back that becomes a franchise course

723
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 2: is probably pretty slim. But so I don't know when

724
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 2: you make that call, it's it's it's.

725
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: Us with with Brozmerg Like the professional experience we had

726
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: with him is preseason, and I think McCarthy's performances in

727
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 1: preseason is another example of that stuff really doesn't mean

728
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: a whole lot. Because McCarthy look pretty good in the

729
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,760
Speaker 1: preseason last year. He had his moments in the preseason

730
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 1: this year, and then regular season has not gone the

731
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:27,240
Speaker 1: right way for him.

732
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 3: So that's where we that's where we stand, Warren, what

733
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 3: do you got? Well?

734
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 11: I want to back, you know on this quarterback situation

735
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,760
Speaker 11: because I was very good friends with down the stream.

736
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 11: He wouldn't have put up with that for more, he

737
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 11: would not have not have put up with it. And

738
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,439
Speaker 11: what was the thing that Zimmer said to that guy

739
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 11: they drafted. They asked a question about the quarterbacks and.

740
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 3: See him in practice all the time.

741
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 11: I see him in practice, you know, you know, and

742
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,399
Speaker 11: that it was my was me going on and if

743
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 11: the kid can't, you know, he gets hurt by saying

744
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 11: we can't. We cannot have our quarterback playing like this.

745
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 11: And what I would do right now, because what do

746
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 11: you have to lose?

747
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 3: Some people out there?

748
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 2: Are you talking from outer space because your phone is

749
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:21,399
Speaker 2: breaking up really bad?

750
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 11: Your connections a little off today. But the thing about.

751
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:29,399
Speaker 8: It is if if if you have, if you gave

752
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 8: him the same chances, you give him the same chances

753
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 8: that that JJ's got, and I say he can't do

754
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 8: any worse, you have him in there, and then when

755
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 8: you tell just simply if you know, you know what

756
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 8: I would say if I was the owners, I'd say,

757
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:48,319
Speaker 8: is this the way you're going to do it?

758
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 3: Okay?

759
00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 11: You and the people out there giving your breaking up.

760
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 3: We got to let you go. You're breaking up really bad.

761
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 3: We are to text message says I've seen this before.

762
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,240
Speaker 2: I've seen it on a on a couple of message boards,

763
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 2: responding to articles in The Fishrap, West Side, east Side

764
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 2: and The Athletic.

765
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 3: It says McCarthy has seen brilliance here and there, he

766
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 3: is learning. Just need to relax.

767
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 2: And again, I just it's easy for you as a

768
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 2: fan to say, just relax. How long is this? How

769
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 2: long do we have to wait? When I say we

770
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 2: I'm talking about players on the team. If you're a

771
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 2: player on the team, you're going this is all fine.

772
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:28,319
Speaker 2: But man, I'm laying it on the line.

773
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:28,719
Speaker 3: Every week.

774
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 2: I'm playing for another contract, and if the team's not

775
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 2: playing well, I'm not getting rich. This isn't what I

776
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 2: signed up for. I signed up because I thought we

777
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 2: were going somewhere, and now we're coddling some kid who

778
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 2: can't play quarterback.

779
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 3: He's just not that simple. It just relax everybody.

780
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,919
Speaker 2: Now, they're going to give him some time and he

781
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 2: may end up developing into the greatest quarterback in the

782
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 2: history of the national football It's always possible, and he

783
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 2: has had moments. He has, but so did Eric Kipple,

784
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,760
Speaker 2: and so did Scott and Mitchell. Do you remember Scott

785
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:11,399
Speaker 2: and Mitchell? Scott and Mitchell left handed quarterback nineteen ninety five,

786
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,239
Speaker 2: it was ninety four, I believe was the years either

787
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 2: ninety four ninety five. He filled in for the injured

788
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 2: Dan Marino. He had five brilliant games, was named AFC

789
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 2: Offensive Player of the Week of the month, and the

790
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 2: Lions and the Vikings went into a bidding war form

791
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,399
Speaker 2: and the Lions won that bidding war. If you want

792
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 2: to call it winning and scott Minster was just okay

793
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 2: at best after that. So that's just a word of

794
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 2: the wise. Yeah, I'm McCarthy's. We don't just relax. It's

795
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 2: easy for you as a fan to say relaxed, but

796
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 2: if you're if you're own the team and you've been

797
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 2: waiting for how many years?

798
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 3: How many? How many victories did the Vikings have in

799
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:58,359
Speaker 3: postseason for the Wolfs two? Three? Well, I think that's

800
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 3: about it, isn't it.

801
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 1: Oh nine and seventeen, I think that's it. They have

802
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,360
Speaker 1: the one game in New Orleans with Cousins through that

803
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: rooteolphers three wins.

804
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:08,720
Speaker 3: There's three.

805
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,879
Speaker 2: Then you got players on the team and he might

806
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 2: be fine. I'm not giving up on him completely. I certainly,

807
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 2: it just seems like he's more regressing than anything. Now

808
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:17,919
Speaker 2: you did have the nice drus As a matter of fact,

809
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 2: I do the hurry up offense with him like the

810
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 2: old Bills used to do with Jim Kelly, because that's

811
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 2: when he seems like he's at his best. Think just

812
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 2: throw drop back, look, throw drop back, look, throw try.

813
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 1: That probably less koc talking in his ear during that stretch.

814
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 3: That's exactly right. That is absolutely positive.

815
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 4: Maybe he's being over coached.

816
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 3: Well, when you got the quarterback whisper whispering in your ear,

817
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:45,759
Speaker 3: that'll happen. So let's do this. Let's bid a doo.
