1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: The fan has learned that Kevin Garnett KG is back 2 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 1: and will be how do we put it? Reintroduced to 3 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 1: the Minnesota audience. Later this evening is the Minnesota Timberwolves 4 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: wrap up. They're rather maddening inconsistent regular season opening question 5 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: here via Sunday Sermons Today. Where does KG rank among 6 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: the most beloved Minnesota sports figures? How high on the 7 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: list does he go? If you don't have on your resume, 8 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: whether it's your fault or not, a championship? Is there 9 00:00:54,600 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: a limit to how high he can ascend? It'd win one, 10 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: But of course, as most of you know by now, 11 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't here KG. Where is he on the pantheon? 12 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: I thought it would be a good day to re 13 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: examine that subject via the Bratch on Brian Cafe in 14 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: text line six four six eight six, Barrero and blakemore 15 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: with you until eleven today, worst case scenario eleven to three, 16 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: eleven to one, eleven to one. YEA, I don't know 17 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: why I extended it. Two hours is good. That's a 18 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: good one as it is. Yeah, you know you almost 19 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: looked like you were you were like, what four hours? 20 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: Are you serious? No? Okay, So two hours is indeed enough. 21 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: There will be other questions discussed on today's edition of 22 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: Sunday Sermons. Example, will the Minnesota Lynx be able to 23 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: field a roster? We keep losing players. It's a part 24 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: of the new reality with the new collective bargaining agreement. 25 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: We'll also probably spend the whole week on a subject 26 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 1: we explored right from the start of Friday's program, who 27 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: will start Game one for your Minnesota Wild against the 28 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: Dallas Stars and who should start in Game one? Because 29 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: those could be different answers. You could believe the Wild 30 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 1: are going to go one way, likely Gus Buss, but 31 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: think that they should go another way. There will be 32 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: endless analysis on that subject leading into Game one. Which 33 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: we is that locked in on the day yet? Do 34 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: we know the day we're starting Saturday or Sunday? Correct? 35 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: I think that much is known, but I don't know 36 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: if it's yet been established which day is which. There 37 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: is another Timberwolves tend to to get to the fascinating 38 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: last day schedule and the impact it might well have 39 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: on your Minnesota Timberwolves playoff prospects. We still don't know 40 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: who the Wolves will play in the first round. We 41 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: obviously know who the Wild will play. We do not 42 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: know yet, And the question is whether the teams vying 43 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: for that honor or that opportunity would prefer not to 44 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: play the Wolves and how hard will they work today 45 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: in their own games to make that happen as well. 46 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: That's on the docket for today. Is it fair to 47 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: call Colorado the college state of hockey? At this point? 48 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: Do we just have to give up the ghost? Is 49 00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: there anybody even here in Minnesota that can deny that 50 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: Colorado is the state of college hockey? They get it 51 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: done again yesterday? Was it their third and five years? 52 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: Is the third title in five years for Denver eleven overall. 53 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: And I didn't watch a lot of it. I forgot 54 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: about it. Turn it on actually with about six minutes 55 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: to go in the third period. In fact, I think 56 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: I saw the game winning goal what turned up to be. 57 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: It turned out to be the game winning goal. And 58 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: the impression I got from the announcers was if Denver 59 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: wins this, it will be another example of them stealing it. 60 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: That the old they didn't have the better of the action, 61 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: but that they won. The thing I need to hear 62 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: from the hockey community today on all of that, but 63 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: their records, their accomplishments in that regard speak for themselves. 64 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: We'll also talk about your red hot Minnesota Twins. They 65 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: get it done again. They lost Friday night right in 66 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,679 Speaker 1: Toronto and then countered with a seven to four victory 67 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: over the Blue Jays last night. Suddenly we're hitting. That's 68 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: been a lot, had a lot to do with the 69 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: surge of your favorite team. Joe Ryan gets the victory 70 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: and the Twins get it done. And as I said, 71 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: I think the goal pretty much the rest of the 72 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: way until the twenty twenty six Major League Baseball trading 73 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: deadline is who we think the Twins will get at 74 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: the deadline to enhance their overachievement if they continue to 75 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: overachieve at their current level. That's I think what we 76 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: have to look forward to at this point. That and 77 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: probably two or three or four more stories about poor 78 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:59,239 Speaker 1: Tommy Pohlad and the gauntlet that he has been forced 79 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: to run, continues to be forced to run as now 80 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: the most visible public face of the beleaguered, misunderstood Minnesota Twins. 81 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: So a lot on the table between now and as 82 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: I said, eleven o'clock today, let me give you the 83 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: basics as it pertains to the Wolves playoff situation. We 84 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: know we're locked at the six, right Houston is locked 85 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 1: at the five. So the question is who ends up 86 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: in the third spot. Who ends up in the fourth spot. 87 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: That would be either the Lakers or Currently the Denver 88 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: Nuggets are the number three spot going into this last 89 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: day today. The Nuggets are playing at San Antonio Davy tonight, 90 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: so it's pretty simple here. If the Nuggets lose and 91 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: the Lakers win on Sunday and they're by the way 92 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 1: hosting Utah, same I believe the same game time as well, 93 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: which is listened here at eight thirty PM, so that 94 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: might be seven thirty Central, I don't know. Regardless, if 95 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: Denver loses and the Lakers win, Denver slides to number four. 96 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: That means what the Wolves get to play the injury 97 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: ravaged Lakers. Conversely, the Nuggets no longer have to worry 98 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: about messing with the Wolves, a team they're certainly capable 99 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: of beating, but they know a team that's capable of 100 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: beating them. They would then take on the Houston Rockets, 101 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: who everybody thinks is more vulnerable, even though they've been 102 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: the hottest team in the conference. Here down the stretch. 103 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: It's also worth noting that Joker needs to play twenty 104 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: minutes tonight to be eligible for MVP and First Team 105 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: All NBA. He is officially listed as questionable. The Nuggets 106 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: have about eight other players out, which would seem to indicate, 107 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: in their perfect world, they lose. How hard will the 108 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: Lakers work to lose? That's the other question. They got Utah, 109 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: and you could argue they too would prefer to play 110 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: Houston then to move up a spot and take on 111 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,199 Speaker 1: the Wolves. A win Sunday, combined again with a Denver loss, 112 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: means the Lakers finished third and host Minnesota in the 113 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: first round. So there's much to pay attention to tonight 114 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: in that regard. We're literally down to the last day 115 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: and we're not going to know until later tonight which 116 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: team the Wolves will play, and I'm going to be 117 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: very entertained by seeing just how hard both the Lakers 118 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: and Denver Nuggets work to lose tonight. Would this be 119 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: considered responsible tanking or irresponsible tanking? I'll leave that up 120 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: to you as well, But that's the current condition of 121 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: your Wolves club that has nothing to play for tonight 122 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: other than welcoming back the certainly most accomplished and I 123 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: would say still most popular Minnesota Timberwolves player. Ever, Kevin Garnett, 124 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 1: who by the way, is not scheduled to be on 125 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: the show today, doesn't look good at this point. I mean, 126 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: I leave the He's got the hotline number. I know that, 127 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: but I'm not I'm not holding my breath in that 128 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: regard six four six eighty six. As I said as 129 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: the Bradshaw on Brian caffe in text line, where does 130 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: Garnett rank on the list? And maybe we keep it? 131 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: Are we better off keeping it to players as opposed 132 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: to including coaches and manage because I think it's more 133 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: unwieldy because obviously Bud Grant would be in that mix, 134 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: although Bud was a player at one point. But I 135 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: maybe we keep this to players non coaches in terms 136 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: of level of popularity, because I have some thoughts on 137 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 1: that myself as well. I'm guessing that Blake Marrel will 138 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: have some thoughts on the goalie situation. We'll certainly get 139 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: into that. Maybe we get into that next and we'll 140 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: keep the texts coming. On a ball me day today, 141 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: after a miserable Saturday, I actually was annoyed by the humidity, 142 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: the due point. When I left today, got in the 143 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: car and left, I was like, feels like Houston. But 144 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:47,599 Speaker 1: I guess we have to take what we can. I 145 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: think today's high supposed to be seventy Is that right? 146 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: Or even higher than that? What do you have on 147 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: your and don't go to your usual weather? Go to 148 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: a good source, all right, go to a better source 149 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: than your phone. Well, my phone says I have seventy 150 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: eight today. 151 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, what I've got, But as we've learned, that's not 152 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: always the one I've got seventy. 153 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: Six or seventy six officially. All right, let's get a 154 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: first pause in Sunday sermons. Hotlines ringing? Right now? Could 155 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: that be about me? If it is, we'll break into 156 00:11:16,080 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: this break and bring him to you next. All right, 157 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: your Minnesota wild I believe after losing two to one 158 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: last night to the Preds have two regular season games left, correct, 159 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: That is at Saint Louis on Monday tomorrow, and then 160 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: the following day we host the Anaheim Ducks Tuesday, April fourteen, 161 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: So we're down to the last two. I'll ask you, 162 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: and I don't know who's in the going to be 163 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 1: in the nets the last two games, if that's yet 164 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: been established a goaltender, should it matter? In other words, 165 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: whatever opinion you have about who should start Game one 166 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: against Dallas, would it be impacted at all on the 167 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: basis of what you see the last two games? 168 00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: For me, it barring a because I think Guss has 169 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 2: been through the ring, especially his last start, where I 170 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 2: just felt like none of the goals maybe one of 171 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: them he could have done something about, but a lot 172 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: of the goals had to do with turnovers and untimely 173 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 2: miscues in their own zone that led to easy, you know, 174 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 2: chances where to. 175 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: Make a play. 176 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 2: As a goaltender, that's fine, but if you turn the 177 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 2: puck over behind the net you have no idea where 178 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 2: it is and the other guy just comes in and 179 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 2: stuff's at home. I mean, that's that's kind of tough 180 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 2: to do anything about. So I think he's been unfairly 181 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 2: grated at times, and I think valse that has been 182 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 2: good for the most part. 183 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: He's had some bumps in the road as well. 184 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 2: So unless gust Buss gets a start in these last 185 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: two and the way and he's terrible, right, that would 186 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 2: be what it would take for me to at least 187 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 2: in game one. The beauty of it is if he 188 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 2: stinks in game one, you just come fast that in 189 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 2: game two and call the day. But to me, game 190 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 2: one is still you go experience in less than the last. 191 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: I actually think it only matters in the last game 192 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 2: because this game in Saint Louis, they could rest everybody. 193 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: That's true, so and. 194 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 2: Then it's really exactly exactly So to me, if I 195 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 2: were John Hines, I'd rest everybody in Saint Louis. I'd 196 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 2: make Anaheim address rehearsal for the playoffs, play everybody, and 197 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 2: then let's go from there. 198 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: But I would still go Gus. But I think you 199 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: could make that argument, and I might. Although, but I 200 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: think I think you're actually being too kind about his 201 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: performance against Dallas. But let me give you the numbers. 202 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: Dallas he gives up five, Detroit gives up four, two, six, 203 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: and six, And again, I'm not here to put all 204 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: of it on him, but what I'm saying is he's 205 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: in a mode right now that has not been Gustafson 206 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: at his best. Meanwhile, the kid two two, one, two 207 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: and two goals allowed. I'm obviously talking about I I 208 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: right now, if you forced me to make a call today, 209 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: I lean your direction. I lean still starting Gustafson in 210 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: game one. I think it's a close I think it's 211 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: a closer call that I really thought a month ago 212 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: that it would be because for me, well, here's what 213 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: makes it tricky. There's a million reasons. You say. You 214 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: go with the experience, you go with the guy who 215 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: largely has been your number one goalie, and you don't 216 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: overreact to any single game or even series of games, 217 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: in which in some cases you can argue as a 218 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: couple of textures do that. It has to do with 219 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: the people in front of him as well. I'll get 220 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: to that in a minute. But this is such a 221 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: big moment for this team. It's the old you got 222 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: to get this right. You have to make the move that, 223 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: in your mind gives the team the best chance to 224 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: finally get the first round albatross off of its back, 225 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: and that sometimes might call for doing something a little 226 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: more radical than perhaps you would under normal conditions. That's 227 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: why I think it's a fascinating call, and it's such 228 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: a big one. Now you can say the leash is 229 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: clearly going to be shorter than it's been in the past. 230 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: So if he's terrible in game one. The decisions made 231 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: for you. You have to make the switch. But even 232 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: sacrificing one game in a series that we all assume 233 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: has a chance to be close might be kind of 234 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, it might be a little bit on 235 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: the dangerous side. Now, let me throw another theory out 236 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: at you that was advanced Friday. The best reason to 237 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: start Gustafson is if you don't, you have a better 238 00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: chance of losing him for the series as the guy 239 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: who's sort of been viewed as the de facto number 240 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: one guy. Then it's it's so it's always going to 241 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 1: be much easier to start him and go with the 242 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: other guy who doesn't necessarily have that expectation as a 243 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: young guy. But if you do it the other way, 244 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,719 Speaker 1: if Gustuson, if allstet starts the first game and is terrible, 245 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: and you want to make a change, you have to. 246 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: You run the risk of wondering whether you're going to 247 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 1: get the best of the other guy who's saying, oh, 248 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: now you want me, I was supposed to be your 249 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: guy most of the season. Do you buy any of 250 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 1: that psychology? 251 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 2: I mean, being a goaltender is mentally interesting. And then 252 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 2: the characters that and the mental space you have to 253 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 2: be in to go and net I understand that it 254 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,120 Speaker 2: could be fragile at times. I don't know if I 255 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 2: buy that as a reason that they wouldn't go with 256 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 2: with valstet But is it possible that that's a thing 257 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 2: that could happen. Sure, But I don't think that's a 258 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 2: good enough reason to keep him in if you don't 259 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 2: think he's the guy. But I do think they go 260 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 2: with them still. I just think it's for all the 261 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 2: other experience. He's been there, done that, He's been our 262 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 2: guy for most of the year, so and I again, 263 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 2: I just don't think he's been that that bad. Maybe 264 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 2: not his best, well, definitely not his best, but not 265 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 2: so bad that we need to throw the baby out 266 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 2: with the bathroom. 267 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: You throw out the Olympic performance because a lot of 268 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: the textures don't. They're saying they've seen it since then, 269 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: that it's started then, and they have not seen him 270 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: have a really good stretch since then. They're factoring that 271 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: into their their belief that this is a really tough call, 272 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: that close call, that's not I don't hate that that. 273 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 2: There's certainly has been a trend and Look, if they 274 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 2: go Valset, this is this is not a situation where 275 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go they blew it, You're gonna renounce your 276 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 2: h oh man, let me grab my old trust, the 277 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: old pitchfork and torch and head on him down to 278 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 2: Saint Paul. 279 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: No. 280 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 2: I mean, that's if they go with Falset game one 281 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: less play as far as I'm concerned. So it's not 282 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 2: a decision that I'm going to get angry about if 283 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 2: they do go that way. 284 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: I've long been I've. 285 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: Been singing Falsetet's praises when Florie was still here, that 286 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 2: they put him in a bad situation his first time 287 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 2: coming up. So it's not anything against false that I've 288 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 2: been a supporter of his for a long time. It's 289 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 2: just I think, personally, you go with the guy who's 290 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 2: been there at least to. 291 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: Start, and we'll go from that nine to five to 292 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: two guy. Everyone has worked up over who the starting 293 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: goalie should be, and that can be a fair debate. 294 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: I'm personally a bit more concerned about how our top 295 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: defensive pair have given up five of the last seven 296 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 1: goals scored against the Wild. None of us should ever 297 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: apologize for what they offer offensively, but Faber and Hughes, 298 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: particularly around our own net, have simply not been good enough, 299 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: to which you say, what, don't disagree. 300 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 2: I think that combination is there to provide offense and 301 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: to move the puck and get breakouts, but in front. 302 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: Of their own net it's been a problem. 303 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: And that was what I was talking about in that 304 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 2: Dallas game where it's just the first one in particular, 305 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 2: there's a turnover where Faber had it behind the net. 306 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 2: And these are guys that I adore favor in Hughes, 307 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 2: I cannot sing the praises high enough about them, but 308 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 2: it's undeniable in the front of the net clearing guys out. 309 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 2: They struggle at times, and they're not the biggest of defenders. 310 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 2: They're electric skaters and puck movers and offensive creators and 311 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 2: we need that on this team. But yeah, there, that's 312 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 2: not a wrong criticism at all of that pairing. 313 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: We're getting a lot of. I really like the a 314 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: number of these texts are coming in because they're they're 315 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 1: making us think, and I'm not sure the Ratchean Brian 316 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 1: Kfaan text line always does that, but today, to its credit, 317 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: I think it is start the wall of Saint Paul. 318 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: Game one, he will come in hungary, ready to answer 319 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: the pressure. Gus bust. Game two, he will come in 320 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: annoyed and ready to prove he should have started game one. 321 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: It's an interesting theory. If we lose game one, writes 322 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: Jim and Saint Paul, the game two goalie has more 323 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 1: pressure on him. You could argue Gus is better equipped 324 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: or more experience to handle that Game two pressure, which 325 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: in his mind is an argument to start the kid 326 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: in game number one. I I just love there's so 327 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: much fodder here, you know, and there's no obviously, there's 328 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: no We're not gonna know the right answer until it's 329 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: too late. And even then it gets more complicated than 330 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 1: that because it cann have to do with what other 331 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: things that happen offensively and defensively. But I like that 332 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: there's there's gonna be a whole week of this before 333 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: we actually get to a game. I mean, we all 334 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: assume that the leash has to be short because there 335 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: can be no margin for error this time around. But 336 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: I think again that goes back to a goalie can 337 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: lose game one, and you can also determine that in 338 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: your mind as a coach or a general manager. You're 339 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 1: not convinced that the goalie is why you lost it, 340 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: in which case, I don't think it's automatic that if 341 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 1: the Wild lose Game one, the other goaliees got to 342 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: be the guys starting game too, correct. Yeah, I mean 343 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: they don't. They don't have to, depending on how it happens. 344 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 2: I just love that that goaltending is such mental gymnastics 345 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 2: that we've got one school thought that says, if you 346 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 2: don't play him game one, Gus, he'll be mentally ruined 347 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 2: and he'll be out of the series. And the other 348 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,360 Speaker 2: school of thought goes, if you don't play him game one, 349 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 2: he'll be more locked down for games too. So it's 350 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 2: all just mental, yeah, jumping through hoops and gymnastics to 351 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 2: try to figure the goaltending position out. 352 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I don't think as interesting 353 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: an email as I thought, or texts as I thought 354 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: it was last Friday, I don't think you can make 355 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: the decision on that basis like, oh, we'll losing for 356 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: It's like at some point you go with these are adults. 357 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: This guy's a professional. So if we make the decision 358 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: the idea that then he has a built in excuse 359 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: that we've lost him for the rest of the series 360 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: because we didn't start him in Game one. Then you 361 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: don't have a really very mentally strong goalie in the 362 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: first place. I don't think you can manage that way, 363 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 1: especially when it's not a kid. He's not eighteen years 364 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: old as well. Let's get another pause in bottom of 365 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: the hour. A lot of good KG texts coming in 366 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: and a lot more ground to cover on a number 367 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 1: of other controversial subjects. Sunday Sermons continues in. 368 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 3: Him KG is back or we'll be back tonight at 369 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 3: Target Center reintroduced. 370 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: I'm assuming Glenn Taylor won't be there, and I threw 371 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: out the question earlier where Garnett ultimately fairly ranks on 372 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 1: the list of most popular Minnesota sports athletes ever, and 373 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: a lot of people have indeed weighed in giving us 374 00:23:54,400 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: some food for thought here as well. Example brand from 375 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: North Branch, Garnett has to be number five all time. 376 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: Pucket is the undisputed number one. I'd rank Bud Grant 377 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: two with his Laker titles and Vike Super Bowls. I've 378 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 1: tried to I didn't tell them that. I didn't say 379 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 1: this at the start, but I'm trying to keep coaches out, 380 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: but I get it. Whalan number three, I don't know 381 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: how you feel about MMA and Wrestling Championship. Brock Lessner 382 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: makes my list at number four, which puts KG at five. 383 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: The question is whether that list is best or most popular, 384 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: because they don't have to necessarily mean the same thing. 385 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: How much they were revered doesn't necessarily have to mean 386 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 1: how much they were respected. It can, but those can 387 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: be different things. I don't think, as the Texter writes, 388 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: it's pretty tough to top Pucket because it's been a 389 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: while now, but and so some of the memories fade. 390 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 1: But I can tell you from being around it that 391 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: when you factor in his just general popularity, the degree 392 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: to which he was liked, and then you throw in 393 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: two titles, I don't know how that's top and in 394 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: some case, in some sense that adds to the popularity. 395 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: So I don't think it's really much of a debate 396 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: for me that Pucket would probably be number one. It's 397 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: almost like who else is fighting once you get Puck 398 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: off of the list. Steve form Dina ranks them this 399 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: way top five, let's count him down five. He's got 400 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: Tarkenton four, he's got Adrian Peterson three kg, Puckett two, 401 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: he's got Randy Moss one. Now he calls them top 402 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: sports team athlete, And again I think he's answering a 403 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: different question. I'm not necessarily asking for most influential or 404 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 1: even best. I'm asking for most beloved. The athletes who 405 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: are the most revered. Was Randy Moss revered? Or was 406 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: he just so dazzling that he became this football curiosity 407 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 1: that everybody loved watching. The one thing you could say 408 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: I think about Garnett, and this is especially timely. I 409 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: think to today, if you judge your athletes in terms 410 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: of your respect for them or your love of them, 411 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: I've used this analogy. I've used this phrasing before. If 412 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: you're a ticket buyer and you're spending your hard earned 413 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: money to go to a game, the athletes I think 414 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: that you tend to love the most are the ones who, 415 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: on the night you went, made you feel as if 416 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: that player may not a one, he may not even 417 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: had a great game, but that night that player went 418 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: after it. He played, He played hard, he played serious, 419 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 1: He played with commitment to the bit, and I think 420 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: that defines Garnett we've played the sound bite about Hydeao. 421 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: They don't his lecture to current players. They pay you 422 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: to play eighty two, they don't play you to pay sixty. 423 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: Paid it to play sixty or seventy, whatever the case 424 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: may be. We probably have it somewhere in our system. 425 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: And I think that's what you know. Back in those days, 426 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: if you were a reporter, you sat court side. You're 427 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: right in front of the action. Garnet sweat man. He toiled, 428 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: He was not always successful. He was not always the 429 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: greatest closer. Now again, a lot of it was what 430 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: he had around him, which wasn't good enough at various points. 431 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: But I don't think anybody ever felt cheated about him 432 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: giving his maximum effort on any given night. Can you 433 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: say that about Randy Moss with all due respect, Now, 434 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: you could say Moss was more dazzling, more influential, because 435 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,959 Speaker 1: he was even more one of a kind perhaps. And 436 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: the Moss part, which is interesting, is that he ushered 437 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: in the emergence of the the the you know, Randy 438 00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: Moss landing here basically ushered in the whole new era 439 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: of Vikings football fandom right from the building being a 440 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: pretty relatively speaking, I won't say quiet place, but an 441 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: older place that felt a little bit like you got 442 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: to get me going before I'm going to cheer to 443 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: a place that was insane. In terms of fan reaction, 444 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: Moss is the guy. His appearance is what transformed I 445 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: think the fans and put them on a different level entirely. 446 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: But I wouldn't put Moss ahead of in my list. 447 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't put Moss ahead of KG when it comes 448 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: to most will beloved liked athletes as well. 449 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 4: You get paid for eighty two. They pay you for 450 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 4: eighty two. They pay you for ten exhibition games. They 451 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 4: pay you for the playoffs. They don't pay you to 452 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 4: play seventy. They pay you to play eighty two. You 453 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 4: understand it. Then that's say something about you on both 454 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 4: sides of the ball. You know what kind of stammining 455 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 4: you gotta be in. You know what kind of the 456 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 4: shape you got to be. You know it's got to 457 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 4: be in your heart to play eighty two. You know, 458 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 4: train to sit me down, shut your ass up, beat 459 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 4: the trainer, take the ankles and move. Have this equipment 460 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 4: out here, bro let me go out here and be great. 461 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 4: Let me show you I can work through this it 462 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 4: says a lot man you can actually perform, and you're 463 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 4: not at one hundred percent. 464 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: If you're a ticket buyer, I don't know how you're 465 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: not aroused by that in all seriousness. That's that's that's it, 466 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: that's what you want. Doesn't guarantee championships, but that stuff 467 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: to guarantee, and that sound bite is why I've gotten 468 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: a few of these having to do with his language 469 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: around the court. If you're at games, I'm not here 470 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: to defend it. I'm not here to say that I 471 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: would love it, but I'll say again, in the end, 472 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: if I'm a ticket buyer, that sentiment is going to 473 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 1: override whatever concerns I might have about language. Chris writes, 474 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:17,959 Speaker 1: KG is not very high for remember when he got 475 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: his big contract, thinking that's fine, but I don't want 476 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: to ever hear him complain about not having an enough 477 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: team around him, which, of course a few years later, 478 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: that's exactly what he did. He never did that. As 479 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: Glenn Mason would say, you're wrong, Garnett never said that. 480 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: Garnett's obligation was to take the contract he got. Garnett's 481 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: contract is not, I repeat not what prevented the Woles 482 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: from being successful in terms of making championship runs. It 483 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: just wasn't. It was a combination of some shaky decisions 484 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: and some bad luck. This team had set its course 485 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: with two players who I think a lot of us 486 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: felt had a chance to be historic as a combo. 487 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: KG was already here and Steph Marbury didn't work out. 488 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: We can argue again forever whether it might have worked 489 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 1: out better if Marbury had been willing to stay, but 490 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: he wasn't. Now where you can, where you can, you 491 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: can put. Some of the criticism on KG was whether 492 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: he pushed for the wrong players and that the team 493 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: tended to listen to him too much. That's I think fair, 494 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: but that's still not going to be enough for me 495 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: to say that, for me to tilt the balance in 496 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: a in another direction, I would say we get to 497 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: a couple more. I watched KG and Michael Grady on 498 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: a YouTube the other day. By the time I was 499 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: ready to uh Kool aid Man through a wall. It's 500 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: KG for me. Number one. That's from Rube Paul flim Flam. 501 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: Since you asked, here's his order three, Garnett two, Moss one, 502 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: Ricky Rubio. Yeah, Well, I kind of felt that way 503 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: too for a while, but unfortunately it just didn't work 504 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: out for Rubio. Unfortunately recency biased though targeted Killer Brew 505 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 1: For the older crowd, yeah, you're gonna get different answers 506 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: depending on which generation was your generation when you were 507 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: young and most enthusiastic perhaps about the world of sports. Six' 508 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: five to one. Guy for, ME kg is number one 509 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: In minnesota.

The DOOR and i don't 531 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: think obviously he regrets that because of what took Place, 532 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: in boston and maybe looking back on, that now the 533 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: way it, worked out, he said Kind if i'd have 534 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: left here three or four more, years earlier who knows 535 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: what else might, have happened been more in.

After it and 589 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 2: THAT'S when i watched years OF blurry khl three sixty 590 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 2: p Highlights.

Their 595 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 2: seat it's just, to me there's nothing that has matched. 596 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 2: That sound six five one, Guy Writes. 597 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: Aloha dan he he introduces a name that is definitely 598 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,720 Speaker 1: worthy of this discussion and doesn't always often. Get named 599 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 1: and part, of that again is because he played so. 600 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: Long Ago. Jim marshall, and again if if we're defining 601 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:47,439 Speaker 1: this in terms of beloved on the level of, gave 602 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: everything he had never cheated the, Ticket buyer it's hard 603 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 1: to Argue With jim marshall the is he describes A 604 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 1: true nfl. Iron man it's just it was a long time. 605 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: Ago football it's a little bit harder to, stand out one. 606 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: Could say and even on that, defensive line there was so. 607 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: Much greatness, You Know alan page was The best lineman on, 608 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: that line as Far as, I'm concerned and What About? 609 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: Alan page now is IT when i say most popular or, 610 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:24,399 Speaker 1: most beloved? Most beloved whereas he he's had a whole 611 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 1: second life, To him but he's also a guy who's 612 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: been at times, Very guarded so it almost feels like 613 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 1: you're talking about a. Different classification how high in the 614 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 1: list Is? Justin jefferson has he done? Enough already is 615 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: that started to cool a little bit through no fault of, 616 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: his own just because of what's going on at the, 617 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: Quarterback POSITION because i would think among, current players he 618 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: strikes me as being extremely beloved, and popular and also 619 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: as a guy who so far has not been the diva, 620 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: wide receiver has not, you know made some of the 621 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: same mistakes you could say That that. Moss made and 622 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: Then Obviously anthony edwards among, current players has got to 623 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: be a big part of this.

Garnett returns tonight the wolves last regular 634 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:53,240 Speaker 1: season game home game at regular season wraps. UP tonight 635 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: i mentioned, much earlier it's going to be entertaining TO 636 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:02,800 Speaker 1: see i Think both the issue tonight For the wolves 637 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 1: is Not the. Wolves game the issue is two other 638 00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:11,480 Speaker 1: games Involving The denver nuggets Against the spurs And the 639 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: jazz Against the. Lakers tonight and the question on the 640 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 1: table is, which Team the Nuggets, or lakers will try 641 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 1: harder to lose tonight because. The loser put, This way 642 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 1: denver is in the. Three, SPOT denver i think most, 643 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: people agree would love to lose to fall, to four 644 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 1: which would allow them to Play the rockets in the 645 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 1: first round rather Than. The wolves now we may be 646 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 1: Underrating the rockets because they finished the, season STRONG but 647 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: i think most People believe denver would rather take. That 648 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: matchup But the lakers might feel the exact same way. 649 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:57,399 Speaker 1: About it so this could be a night where there's 650 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: some significant tanking, going on having nothing to do with 651 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 1: lottery or, draft position but more to do with who 652 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: do you want to match up against in the first 653 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 1: round Of The western, conference Playoffs The houston rockets Or The. 654 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: Minnesota timberwolf so that'll be fun to watch tonight. As 655 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 1: well and there's another actually another angle to one of, 656 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 1: those matchups which we will get into in. Our two 657 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 1: we have To. Talk links we keep losing players and 658 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:31,359 Speaker 1: we're seeing in. REAL time i guess you could say 659 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:39,800 Speaker 1: what the negotiating team wanted to open up more money to, 660 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 1: more players meaning on the other side, of it the 661 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: risk that you might lose some players that you do 662 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: not want, to lose And the links continue to. Lose 663 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 1: them they may have some things up our sleeve that we, 664 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: don't know but some troubling developments there which we. Will 665 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: discuss and we'll also get to a couple of other 666 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: matters in our. Number Two Bradshawn brian kafan text line 667 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,879 Speaker 1: is open at, six four six.

General managers, 678 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: you know And obviously, louis PLAYED but i don't think 679 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 1: on the basis of his playing career that was enough 680 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 1: to put him on on. That list louis is as 681 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:12,240 Speaker 1: beloved as, anybody is is, well known he's he's almost 682 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 1: in his. OWN category i don't even know what category 683 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 1: you put, Him. IN ambassador i guess we're trying to 684 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: limit it two players during their. PLAYING career i think 685 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:28,399 Speaker 1: that's the distinction we're trying. To make nobody is ever 686 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 1: going to ignore for. A second i was, LIKE this. 687 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 2: I don't i Don't think mitsas's kid is eligible for 688 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 2: most of The loved, like literally that's where my thing. 689 00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 1: Went First johnny randall's name is getting some. Attention here 690 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 1: that's not a, bad one especially when you, factor IN as, 691 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: i recalled he was an. Undrafted player still astonishing when 692 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:57,319 Speaker 1: you think, about it to be undrafted and to become 693 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 1: the the superstar that. He Was. Marion gaberick Was? HE 694 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 1: gaberick i, should say was? HE beloved i think he. 695 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 1: Was appreciated i'm not sure. 696 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 4: That he. 697 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 1: Was beloved kevin wants to know out Of, elk river 698 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: is there Any chance Denver the lakers want the number 699 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: three seed To, Avoid, okay see that's an interesting counter 700 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 1: because if you get the, three seed you're on the 701 00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:30,879 Speaker 1: other side of. The bracket but Given the spurs being 702 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,439 Speaker 1: as dominant as they've been even without, Playoff equity i'm. 703 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,239 Speaker 1: NOT sure i guess it all depends on whose ox 704 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 1: is being. Being gored the other thing that's interesting About 705 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:51,399 Speaker 1: The utah lakers game, Tonight, is Yeah the lakers may try, 706 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,319 Speaker 1: to tank but what if they get out tanked by 707 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 1: one of the ultimate, tanking Teams The. Utah jazz for, 708 00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 1: the Moment the jazz are Tied with sacramento for the 709 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 1: league's fourth. Worst record draft odds remain the same for 710 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:06,719 Speaker 1: teams with the three, worst records but there is a 711 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: difference between number four number five odds slightly better at, 712 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 1: this point if you've tanked as Irresponsibly as, utah has 713 00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:19,439 Speaker 1: you're GONNA take i don't think you're gonna be shy 714 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,239 Speaker 1: or find any shame in doing it a little, bit 715 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:26,320 Speaker 1: more even if it just means a slightly better chance 716 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 1: on the odds between the number four and the number. 717 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 1: Five teams it's also worth noting Regarding The spurs nuggets 718 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 1: game that if They, beat denver they also they have 719 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 1: incentive because then they would would avoid Playing the nuggets 720 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 1: in the second round of. The playoffs they Would move 721 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: denver to the other side of the bracket. AS well 722 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 1: i think it's almost certain That the nuggets will lose 723 00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 1: To the spurs, TONIGHT said i think they also would 724 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: prefer To play houston Then, the wolves but we'll have. 725 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 1: To see so that's what all the discussion was in hour, 726 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,799 Speaker 1: number one about the fact that does anybody really want 727 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: the number. Three seed i'm not Saying the wolves. Are 728 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 1: unbeatable they have not played as if, they're unbeatable but 729 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 1: they do have some playoff experience and some success to 730 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 1: fall back on a. Little bit, so realistically you think 731 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,240 Speaker 1: if you're one of the, you know Sort of midland 732 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 1: teams in the, you know in the three four five 733 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:37,439 Speaker 1: spots In The western conference playoff, food chain that you'd 734 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 1: probably Rather play houston Than, the wolves even Though, the 735 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 1: wolves Even though, houston has Of Course kevin durant. As 736 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 1: well are are there any links fans out there?

HAVEN'T had, 817 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean i don't think if before the current iteration of, 818 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:38,480 Speaker 1: THE team i don't think it's reckless to say that 819 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: in the History, of minnesota while they had no single 820 00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:47,600 Speaker 1: player as beloved or as Accomplished As kevin garnett Or several, 821 00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:50,880 Speaker 1: MINNESOTA vikings i just think. THAT'S factual i, mean that 822 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 1: frankly was part of what hurt THE wild i think 823 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,680 Speaker 1: through many of those years was the idea of when 824 00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: are we going to get? Our superstar and that's obviously 825 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 1: what caprice of most assuredly represents. As. 826 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,399 Speaker 2: Well well when you think, of beloved you think. Big 827 00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,759 Speaker 2: personality you do either size and you just don't know 828 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 2: that's just not A hockey you're not going To hear 829 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,920 Speaker 2: capriceov come out and oppress her And go and that's 830 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,360 Speaker 2: just not because he wouldn't, do it just. 831 00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:19,040 Speaker 1: That's not his. Personality personality and then there's the language 832 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 1: ISSUE that I does i do think make it makes 833 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,239 Speaker 1: it even more complicated in, some cases right where it's 834 00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:27,520 Speaker 1: just it's not his. First language doesn't mean. He can't 835 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 1: i'm Not saying i'm not mocking him, for IT but 836 00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 1: i do think that can sometimes get in the way 837 00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,279 Speaker 1: of that's the sort of bigness that you're, talking. ABOUT 838 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 1: too i think. 839 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,800 Speaker 2: HE'S personality i think, it's unbelievable unbelievably impressive that he 840 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:40,560 Speaker 2: speaks as much as he. 841 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 1: Does, language no let's get. One more let's get one on. 842 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 1: One more let's get. A pause in our first pause 843 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 1: of the ten o'clock hour of, the show we'll get 844 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,800 Speaker 1: into a little Bit Of minnesota, twins discussion although not. 845 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 1: Too MUCH and i do want to talk about the 846 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: state of, college hockey the state of, college hockey because 847 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:02,120 Speaker 1: do we just we now have they have CROWNED an 848 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 1: ncaa men's hockey. Champion state regarding our discussion On Where 849 00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 1: kevin garnett fits into the THIS the i guess you 850 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:33,480 Speaker 1: could say debate over, most revered Most loved minnesota. Sports 851 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,960 Speaker 1: ATHLETES when I say minnesota sports not necessarily, from here but, 852 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 1: excelled here made a name for. THEMSELVES here a couple 853 00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:43,840 Speaker 1: of people brought up the Name Of, david winfield, of 854 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: course is one. Of US and i think the Problem 855 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:57,320 Speaker 1: for winfield is as a pro his, best years the 856 00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,760 Speaker 1: years where he carved out a, you know World class 857 00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 1: Hall of fame niche did not take. Place here so, 858 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,880 Speaker 1: TO me i can't put. Him there even though obviously 859 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 1: he's one of the, GREATEST athletes i don't think he 860 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 1: necessarily would be classified as one of the. Most REVERED 861 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 1: so i think you got, to play, you know the 862 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 1: guts of your career are a significant part of your, 863 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: career here and of course he, got HERE but i 864 00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:27,480 Speaker 1: JUST don't i think. He would you'd have to put 865 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: him in, that regard into a. Different classification but keep 866 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: the text coming six four six. Eight six That's The 867 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 1: branshawn bryant caffe in the text line two number One 868 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 1: For angel reese who was just traded and we cut 869 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:51,400 Speaker 1: the other the player we took in her instead when we. 870 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 1: Moved down that's a, big deal. Huge error it's an 871 00:57:54,720 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 1: incomplete examination though we cannot leave out that as part of, 872 00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 1: that deal the or series, of deals the links have 873 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 1: the number two overall pick in, this draft so that 874 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 1: has to be. Factored into that has to be and 875 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:19,720 Speaker 1: so it'll depend if they end up getting a, you 876 00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 1: know a world class player who ultimately helps them win. 877 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:28,439 Speaker 1: More championships that completely changes. That discussion if, they don't 878 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 1: if it's, a washout then obviously it will look very 879 00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,080 Speaker 1: different at, that point and there's not a lot of 880 00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 1: discussion continuing about Who the links might take with the 881 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 1: number two. Overall pick So the masters takes a fairly dramatic, 882 00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:51,120 Speaker 1: turn yesterday Correct as rory McElroy had what was it He? 883 00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 1: Started saturday was it with a six?

Short game but then the magic kind of 903 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:55,720 Speaker 2: dried out a little bit in the. Third round so, 904 00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 2: so yeah he's the, lead. Evaporated gone he's still got 905 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 2: as good a chance as ever to win a second, 906 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,480 Speaker 2: jacket today but uh, uh yeah it just he's got 907 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:06,880 Speaker 2: to be able to find a fair way off the 908 01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 2: tea and make it easier. 909 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:11,360 Speaker 1: For himself did you have another golf controversy, To this? 910 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:13,000 Speaker 1: Jim yesterday, So so. 911 01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:16,720 Speaker 2: Scheffler, related, Yeah So, Scottie scheffler i'm curious to get 912 01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 2: your thoughts.

Sixty, five well do you 935 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 1: really think you? Got lucky and it should be closer to? 936 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 1: A seventy, i think. OR worse i think what you're 937 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,480 Speaker 1: trying to open the door to is the belief that 938 01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:35,680 Speaker 1: as great around as, THIS was i actually could have 939 01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 1: ended up with something. Even better there might have been 940 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:40,880 Speaker 1: a better way to phrase it Than that it was, 941 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 1: A little i would say a little on the. ABRUPT 942 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 1: side i don't have any dog in this, fight actually 943 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:52,040 Speaker 1: but so my it's it's interesting the way he, took 944 01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:53,800 Speaker 1: IT because i think he must have taken it, as 945 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:56,880 Speaker 1: oh YOU say i lucked into a, sixty five that 946 01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,200 Speaker 1: it really should have. Been something but there's really no 947 01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 1: other reason to asked the question when you shoot a 948 01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:04,640 Speaker 1: sixty five At, the masters isn't to ME, that I If, 949 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:06,720 Speaker 1: I'm scotty i'm taking that as what a sixty five 950 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 1: is not? Good, enough well you THINK that i should have? 951 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:13,280 Speaker 1: Done better well AGAIN though, i don't but because that's 952 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 1: really not rational. To me you're asking it, as, if 953 01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 1: yeah you don't believe it or not as great around as. 954 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 1: IT was i did leave a couple. OF shots i 955 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,640 Speaker 1: could have had something even, more amazing but. It wasn't 956 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:27,320 Speaker 1: it probably could. 957 01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:27,720 Speaker 4: Have been. 958 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 1: It probably could have been phrased better. As well that's 959 01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:33,640 Speaker 1: probably part of THE do i just don't think that 960 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:36,080 Speaker 1: this Is A well scott is not a nice.

Out there, 978 01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:31,880 Speaker 1: so sure but that's. Always, TRUE yeah i would say 979 01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:35,880 Speaker 1: it's not a very. GOOD question i don't think he 980 01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:39,439 Speaker 1: should lose his credential to. ASK questions i don't think 981 01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:46,120 Speaker 1: he's quite the victim that we have to lose our minds. 982 01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:48,000 Speaker 1: OVER it i think he's going to. BE fine i 983 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:49,800 Speaker 1: think the reporter is going to.

Said anniversary that is for sure you're getting 1029 01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:24,920 Speaker 1: ripped by six point. Two guys play The entire. SCOTTY 1030 01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:27,360 Speaker 1: clip a lot of context missed in that two. Second 1031 01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:30,960 Speaker 1: clip did you cleverly edit it to not get to 1032 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 1: the rest of what? He said he actually got around 1033 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 1: answering the question admitted it wasn't that bad a question 1034 01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 1: like has, been said the phrasing perhaps. Wasn't, great well 1035 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 1: did you leave? THAT out. 1036 01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:44,160 Speaker 2: I didn't, first off hand up.

With, IT secondly i actually played 1038 01:07:47,120 --> 01:07:49,040 Speaker 2: it To defend SCOTTY because i was going to come 1039 01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:51,440 Speaker 2: to his aid and say he's right to be annoyed by. 1040 01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:55,080 Speaker 1: This, question NO but i think he's saying it's unfair to. 1041 01:07:55,160 --> 01:07:58,400 Speaker 1: The reporters what, he said that That that scotty wasn't 1042 01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:01,880 Speaker 1: as burned as a short clip indicated on the base 1043 01:08:01,920 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 1: of the fact that he ultimately answered. The question I'm 1044 01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:05,440 Speaker 1: just i'm. JUST asking, i mean we can roll. 1045 01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,960 Speaker 2: With it, if ANYTHING if i would have cut, it 1046 01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:10,360 Speaker 2: OFF if i would have Been, ANTI scotty i think 1047 01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:14,080 Speaker 2: to make him look like a SO but i.

Contending roster. Very interesting so that, 1063 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:12,439 Speaker 1: whole issue which has reared its head from time to 1064 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:16,040 Speaker 1: time in a number of, men's sports is now with this, 1065 01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 1: new deal becoming more germane to women's basketball.

Via expansion 1068 01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 1: they've Also lost ALANA the i think the stunner might 1069 01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 1: Have Been alana Smith She Orlana smith she Goes to 1070 01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 1: dallas for one point one to nine million dollars a 1071 01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:47,120 Speaker 1: Year start debune reports that Had the Links, Retained, Smith, 1072 01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:50,920 Speaker 1: carlton Shepherd and heideman and paid them the same as their, 1073 01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:53,600 Speaker 1: new teams they would have total four point one to, 1074 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:57,280 Speaker 1: three million or fifty nine percent of the. Cap space 1075 01:09:57,520 --> 01:10:00,760 Speaker 1: if You add collier as a supermax at one point 1076 01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:08,320 Speaker 1: four or will she go the same Way That kelsey 1077 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:11,479 Speaker 1: plumb did and help out, the club we'll see that 1078 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 1: would be seventy nine percent of the Cap if collier 1079 01:10:14,479 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 1: signs at. The SuperMac so what we HAVE to i 1080 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:24,439 Speaker 1: think start investigating and finding out before we go into 1081 01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:26,840 Speaker 1: panic mode here of what looks kind of troubling in 1082 01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:29,479 Speaker 1: terms of who you're the defections you have for a 1083 01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:32,519 Speaker 1: team that you know has had championship pedigree is what 1084 01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:36,800 Speaker 1: what is? This about do we have other players we've 1085 01:10:36,880 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 1: already lined up that we think we'll be able to 1086 01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:44,599 Speaker 1: fulfill some of. Those roles we do have the number two, 1087 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:47,200 Speaker 1: overall pick although some people think we're going to take 1088 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 1: a project Center from spain as opposed to someone who 1089 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,439 Speaker 1: might be ready to help us. More immediately we'll have 1090 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:57,920 Speaker 1: to see. On that but do we have the first 1091 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:01,479 Speaker 1: sign here that on the link side Least a Rod 1092 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:03,960 Speaker 1: And mark lourie are tightening things up a, little bit 1093 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:07,160 Speaker 1: as we discussed in the first hour of. THE show 1094 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,760 Speaker 1: i don't know that that's, the CASE but i think 1095 01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:14,680 Speaker 1: it's a fair question. To, ask so and, you know 1096 01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 1: does everybody want to? Play here you think, they would 1097 01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:21,519 Speaker 1: but maybe they don't if they have. Other, alternatives now 1098 01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,280 Speaker 1: some of this again is if you get such a, 1099 01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:27,639 Speaker 1: good deal and these are all really GOOD deals max basically, 1100 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:33,400 Speaker 1: max deals then do, you, say well if this team's 1101 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 1: not willing to do that or can't, do THAT then 1102 01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:39,000 Speaker 1: i got to go. ANOTHER direction i. Don't know there's 1103 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:41,840 Speaker 1: a lot of meat on, THE bone i think to 1104 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:46,519 Speaker 1: try to figure out how to interpret what outwardly looks 1105 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:50,840 Speaker 1: concerning regarding a team that is not supposed to, be 1106 01:11:50,920 --> 01:11:54,560 Speaker 1: losing you, would say losing good players with the championship 1107 01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:56,760 Speaker 1: pedigree that. They have so we'll have to we'll pay 1108 01:11:56,760 --> 01:12:00,920 Speaker 1: attention to all of that. AS well a six four 1109 01:12:00,960 --> 01:12:04,800 Speaker 1: six eighty six Is the Bradshaw and bryant K fa n. 1110 01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:13,240 Speaker 1: Text line you get to a couple of a lot 1111 01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:16,360 Speaker 1: of texts that have. Come in oh. Real Quick so 1112 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:20,840 Speaker 1: denver wins AGAIN third ncaa frozen four men's hockey TITLE 1113 01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:25,920 Speaker 1: in i believe five years their, eleventh overall did? You 1114 01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:27,360 Speaker 1: watch did you get to see much of? THE game 1115 01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:29,519 Speaker 1: i saw pretty much all? Of, It okay so do 1116 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: you buy the notion that was being presented by play 1117 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:34,640 Speaker 1: by play guy late in the Game that. 1118 01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:40,000 Speaker 2: Denver kind of stole? It On the badgers were the 1119 01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:43,960 Speaker 2: better team for seventy five. That game i'd say they 1120 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:48,639 Speaker 2: were the, bigger team, hungrier team better, for checking. BETTER 1121 01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:51,760 Speaker 2: pressure i think like halfway through The game denver had 1122 01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:52,559 Speaker 2: like five shots. 1123 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,920 Speaker 1: On, goal uh they were shutting. It down that's the 1124 01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:56,360 Speaker 1: style that. 1125 01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:59,560 Speaker 2: They play and then but the problem is if you 1126 01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:03,439 Speaker 2: can't expect to win, a game especially, national championship scoring 1127 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 2: one goal And there denver's goalie just shut, the door 1128 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:11,680 Speaker 2: stood on his head. At times and eventually if you 1129 01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:15,840 Speaker 2: only score ONCE the i mean it's unrealistic to expect 1130 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:17,760 Speaker 2: you're going to shut the opponent out in a game. 1131 01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 2: Of that and once the, floodgate opened that. Was that 1132 01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 2: all the momentum went over To the pioneers and me 1133 01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:27,040 Speaker 2: and my dad go home disappointed That the badgers don't 1134 01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:27,719 Speaker 2: get it done. 1135 01:13:28,240 --> 01:13:29,840 Speaker 1: As we two to one was, the final as, you 1136 01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:32,519 Speaker 1: said and that's the third title in, five years the. 1137 01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:38,720 Speaker 1: Eleventh overall they're the state of, college, HOCKEY right, i 1138 01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:41,880 Speaker 1: mean how do you argue with that pretty good?

Sounds, wonderful ultimately 1185 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:23,000 Speaker 1: it's going to be more about what, takes place and 1186 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 1: the act of doing what he's doing is not. Particularly 1187 01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:33,880 Speaker 1: noble it's. Their team somebody had to. Do it they had. 1188 01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:38,760 Speaker 1: A choice they had. A choice they they they if 1189 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:41,600 Speaker 1: they're if this was really about how difficult this is 1190 01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 1: and what the storm that they've had to, to navigate, 1191 01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 1: just sell sell and then you won't have to be 1192 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:57,120 Speaker 1: in that. Storm anymore but we we are inundated WITH like, 1193 01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 1: i said almost every day there's, another story worry about 1194 01:17:00,760 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 1: taking on this burden and. This responsibility and we're all supposed, 1195 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 1: to guess give him a medal because he's acknowledging that 1196 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 1: at least some of the dysfunction or some of the what's. 1197 01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:20,800 Speaker 1: The word i'm looking for negativity that exists around the 1198 01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:24,280 Speaker 1: franchise that the team itself might have something to. Do, 1199 01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:26,640 Speaker 1: with okay, that's great.

Factored in that's. Blatantly false there 1314 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:27,000 Speaker 1: was frustration as they continue to have fifty victory seasons 1315 01:24:27,080 --> 01:24:29,840 Speaker 1: and not then pay off with any playoff runs other 1316 01:24:29,960 --> 01:24:33,160 Speaker 1: than THE one mv.

Into it players, LIKE that 1337 01:25:51,040 --> 01:25:54,400 Speaker 1: i think feel they have.
