It was kind of off 77 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 2: the menu. 78 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 3: They had like a meatball appetizer and then they had 79 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 3: like a spaghetti entree and I told the guy, I 80 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 3: was like, can we combine these?

A lot of 90 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 3: these tickets are very expensive, or for tomorrow's game versus 91 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: Canada is completely sold out, so it's a hard ticket 92 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 3: to come by it' And then the USA gear, it's 93 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 3: pretty covenant around here, is. 94 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: Do you expect a more tightly contested game today? At 95 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: one forty Central against Switzerland. And for those who haven't 96 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: followed it, Taylor Heisei squad, Hillary Knights squad, Team USA 97 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: Women beat Chetchi up five zip, then they beat Finland 98 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: five to one. Now they got Switzerland today at one forty. 99 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: Do you do you think it's going to be more 100 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: tightly contested? 101 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 3: You know, I think hockey is one of those interesting 102 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: games where a couple of different puck bounces can go 103 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 3: different ways and result in different things. But I think 104 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 3: if you look at it, on paper, US should take 105 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 3: care of business. The Canadians beat them two nights ago, 106 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 3: four to zero Swiss that is, and a lot of 107 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 3: people love to compare the Canadians and the US team, 108 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: So on paper it should be another one of those 109 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 3: four or five zero four or five to one type 110 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 3: of wins. But hey, if the Olympics the hockey game, 111 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 3: you got to come, you got to show out, you 112 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 3: got to play to the best of your ability.

I mean, it was an absolute massacre. 125 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, the ladies are. 126 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,559 Speaker 3: They're on it right now, and you can tell with 127 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: with just the way they're keeping the puck in his zone, 128 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 3: controlling possession, you know, getting getting it in deep all 129 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: the little hockey terms right that you would you and 130 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 3: me love so dearly. But but they're on it, and 131 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 3: their goal keeping has been outstanding. 132 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: They have. 133 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 3: They have two best goalies in the p WHL in 134 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 3: my opinion, Aaron Frankel and Gwen Phillips, and they play 135 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 3: for Boston and Ottawa respectively, and they're absolutely excellent. So 136 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 3: when you get the good back you know, backside goalkeeping, 137 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 3: and then you got the forward talents up front, it's 138 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 3: it's gonna be hard to beat. 139 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 2: The US women's national team. 140 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: Do you have a like a to do list? 141 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 4: I mean a topic is supporting Taylor, supporting the Americans 142 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 4: watching them hopefully grab gold. 143 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: That's all good and you're on it, But. 144 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 4: Do you have like other things that you're going to 145 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 4: try to do over the two weeks you're here.

But New England 551 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: ain't jumps. They just ran into a head coach who 552 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: was seven to zero in his career against quarterbacks twenty 553 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: four years of age or younger or in their first 554 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: two years, Mike McDonald. The second time I've brought it 555 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 1: up today, Why because it's seven and oh, it's not 556 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: like a one to o two and oh three and 557 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: oh four and oh you start to get some equitable context, 558 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: not seven and oh. He beats them all every single time, 559 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: and he makes them look bad almost every single time. 560 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: Drake May was the newest casual team. Now when it 561 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: comes to the Champs and what we call champ change, 562 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 1: Champ change loose change that may fall out of their 563 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: pockets and get lost in free agency. Champ change loose 564 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: chains that may fall out of their pockets and get 565 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: lost in free agency. I always Seattle's unrestricted free agents 566 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: of note of note, Okay, they're more These are of note. 567 00:24:56,040 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: Rashid Shaheed, Boye, Mafe, Kenneth Walker, the third Super Bowl MVP, 568 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: though I always love that one. Wrong one super Bowl 569 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: MVP is unrestricted Josh Job Safety, Kobe Bryant and corn 570 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: nerve Back Greek Wollen. Rak Wollen got a little rolling 571 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: ball of butcher knives to him with a side dish 572 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: of wild card unpredictability. Put his arm to go from 573 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: Munich to main. Reek Wallan, New England's unrestricted free agents 574 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: of note tight end Austin Hooper wait I said, of note, 575 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 1: all right, Kay Levon Chason formerly with LSU, that's a note. 576 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 1: Chiris Tonga. It's of note because he used to play 577 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: for the Minnesota Vikings and he actually played in the 578 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Former Minnesota Viking offensive lineman Vederian Lowe. I 579 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: think he spent three here four with the New England Patriots. Yeah, 580 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: I set of note, but we include but it is 581 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 1: of note when they played for us, left the Covenant 582 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 1: and found success see Sam Darnold. So Seattle's unrestricted free 583 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: agents of note Rashi Chahed boy Ye Mafey, Kenneth Walker, 584 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: the Third, Josh Job, Kobe Bryant, Riek Willan, New England, 585 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 1: Austin Hooper, Calebon Chason, Kiros Tonga, the Darian Lowe. Anybody 586 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: want any of those players via unrestricted free agency to 587 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: join the Purple and Gold Covenant. 588 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 4: What y'all thinking about that? Well, I mean, look at 589 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 4: some of those names. Though I'm going to start with 590 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 4: with Seattle. I mean, if I'm being honest, I got 591 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 4: to dig in more to kylevon Chas on how he 592 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 4: was used with the Patriots. There's an element there of 593 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 4: just kind of Vrabel's defense getting the most out of people. 594 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 4: The way that they put a bunch of new faces 595 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 4: together over the last couple of years and got their 596 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 4: way to the Super Bowl is remarkable despite the l 597 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 4: But looking on the Seahawks side, man, I really. 598 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: Like something you said earlier in the show, and evers, 599 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: I wish I had crafted it for the open. It's 600 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: with all Kenneth Walker the Third soon to be unrestricted, 601 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: and he's going to get a massive payday. Milton Williams, 602 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: the former Eagle who won the Super Bowl last year, 603 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: prized free agent acquisition by the Patriots. It was and 604 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: he was worth every penny every step of the way. Yes, 605 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 1: so why run into him. Let's make sure this Christian Gonzalez, 606 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: he's a sticky, wonderful long arm corner. Kenny tackle, Carlton Davis, 607 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: He's had a wonderful year free agent first year with 608 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: New England, Kenny tackle. So let's make sure these high 609 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: end coverage corners can tackle by putting Kenneth Walker the 610 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: third and a tight end out there in front of him. 611 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: Make sure these guys are willing tacklers. 612 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 4: Is that just a stubborn commitment if you're Clint Kubiak 613 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 4: to the run, because at times, at the times it 614 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 4: was just you are automatically setting Sam Darnold up for 615 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 4: second and nine or second and ten. 616 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: We saw that. 617 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 4: And despite the fact, and this isn't about ripping Sam 618 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 4: as a matter of fact, look at what Sam did 619 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 4: over the final four games of the season. He stopped 620 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 4: turning the ball over, and the team's hoisting the Lombardi 621 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 4: and just the decision making and the way that they 622 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 4: protected him. Twenty seven sacks versus fifty some no doubt. 623 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 4: My point is you were putting them in bad spots 624 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 4: last night. So the box score fifty completions had to 625 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 4: throw at thirty eight times. Probably don't like that, and 626 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 4: ten or eleven targets. There's a lack of efficiency in 627 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 4: the passing game. There would go lack of efficiency in 628 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 4: the passing game because Kenneth Walker would get two yards 629 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 4: in the cloud of dust. But then it only took 630 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 4: Barnard to get the right guy. It would take one 631 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 4: of the wide receivers to chip the right guy. Gonzalez 632 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 4: does not make the elite tackle and you're around the corner. 633 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 4: It almost felt like in some ways they were letting 634 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 4: Milton get free, that they were like, okay, yeah, Milty, 635 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 4: you can come on up pushing this thing opposite you. 636 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 4: There was just a lot of really really smart ways 637 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 4: that Kubiak implemented that run game and stuck with it, 638 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 4: and that's the key stop. 639 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: It just kept it. It was a thing, as the 640 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 1: kids would say. Yeah, and then like when Holani was 641 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: in the game, the backup, the replacement for Zach Sharbonay. 642 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how many carries he had. 643 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: He couldn't have had many more than two because whenever 644 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: he was unless something got I stopped watching relatively late, 645 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: unless he got something super late. When he was in, 646 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: they threw every time. His pass protection in the NFC 647 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: title game, Yeah, it was abysmal. Well, they had two 648 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: weeks to work on it. Yeah, he knew now, you know. 649 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: He didn't blow him up like Walter Payton or Emmitt Smith, 650 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: but he got in the way enough to pave the 651 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: way for a pass. So they used Holani different ways. 652 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: I believe that's his last name. 653 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 4: Yeah. 654 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: He had two carries in the game You're dead on. Yeah. 655 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 4: I think those were both very late. Any content played 656 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 4: very much, and he played a lot. 657 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. 658 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: So there was a common thread to our conversation last 659 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: week via Super Bowl stories brought it up a lot. 660 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: Well here's what Yeah, Well, let me share the common 661 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 1: thread and it went to burying its fruit. In my 662 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: estimation last night, it is age old. If you have 663 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 1: the right kind of tight ends and you can run 664 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: the football, you're going to be tough to be And 665 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: even though Seattle may not go free deep the way 666 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: the Rams do, and that's the prototypical example of what 667 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. Barner is better than all three of 668 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: the tight ends McVeigh has. So you start with the 669 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: high ender. But the way they used a Salburt, Eric Salbert, 670 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: the way they used their Beefy, their tight ends stay 671 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: true to the run, stayed consistent with it. Well, eventually 672 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: it's like, if you do that, then in fourth quarters 673 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: of December games, minds and bodies are going to get tired. Okay, 674 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: And well now we're in a February game and with 675 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: some extra time off, getting bodies tired is difficult with 676 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: a even with a concerted powerhouse running game approach. But 677 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean minds can't go to waning. And that's 678 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: what happened is they ran it so effectively outside of 679 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 1: the hash marks and between the numbers, and then outside 680 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: the numbers that they got Patriots to freak out mentally 681 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: start going out of body with what they thought was coming. 682 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: And that's why Kenneth Walker in essence for five of 683 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: his final seven carries. When he got the ball, he 684 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: didn't take off, No, he didn't. He and one of 685 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: them that was bally Hoot, he stopped and just like 686 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: stood there and waited. Then he took off. 687 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 3: Yeh. 688 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,719 Speaker 1: It's like he had a snack and he's like, all right, 689 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: time to go. I guess, well, because he knew where 690 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: the hole was supposed to be. But he also knew 691 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: somebody for New England's going to go out of body 692 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: here and try to get a TfL because they're desperate. 693 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: So I'm going to wait for that roube to over commit, 694 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: and I'm going to wait for the right hole, and 695 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get eight, and bodies of minds are gonna 696 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: get beaten down. That's what happened. Tight Ends and running 697 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: backs age Old. I mean, we're talking all the way 698 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: back to Paul Horning, Bear Bryant and Newt Rockney. Tight 699 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: Ends and consistency with a running game and the running 700 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: the right two running backs or one in certain cases. 701 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: It's just age Old. It always is effective. 702 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 4: Now, I think you're right, but you have me thinking 703 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 4: with this list, I'm going beyond. I mean, I would 704 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 4: like I would like a running back like Kenneth Walker 705 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 4: on my team. However, I'd like to we got to 706 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 4: use Kenneth Walker the way that he clearly found his 707 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 4: success out West boy A mafe. Does he fit in 708 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 4: a system like this? Like the way that I look 709 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 4: at this, I'm just thinking how many John Schneider has 710 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 4: built as as general manager of the Seahawks. Two different 711 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 4: generations of Super Bowl winning teams. The Legion of Boom 712 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 4: I mean, very good defense, of course, but built maybe 713 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 4: a little bit differently. And then now we have different names, 714 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 4: different incarnation, similar success. They're both host hoisting trophies. Is 715 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 4: John Schnyder a guy that walks away from Kenneth Walker? 716 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 3: Like that? 717 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 4: Just kind of when you were putting this together, I 718 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,239 Speaker 4: was kind of thinking about it. Trek Willen Reek Wollen, Well, 719 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 4: I got Devin Witherspoon, I got this. I got that 720 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 4: this is working really well for Mereek Wollen. I can 721 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 4: go get a third round corner as a backup on 722 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 4: a rookie deal, and I can go he's probably looking 723 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 4: at other people's ross. 724 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: He's got like sixty million in calf space. That's the thing. 725 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 4: These guys, these guys ain't freaking going away, geez. They 726 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 4: have plenty of cash to spend, and so he's like, yeah, 727 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 4: I appreciate Josh Joe. I appreciate Josh Job a couple 728 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 4: of moments last night. Job actually came up huge for 729 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 4: that secondary. Yep, yeah, I could actually go find this, 730 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 4: you know again, like, can Schneider walk away? I mean, 731 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 4: I assume they you got sharbon ay on an acl, 732 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 4: so you're gonna let a lot ride in the draft 733 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 4: if you're gonna to replace a back like what Kenneth 734 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 4: Walker's given you when he's healthy. So it's just again hypothetical, 735 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 4: But if anybody's willing to, we're just gonna go back 736 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 4: into the draft. No, I got this extra money, I'm 737 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 4: gonna go here. Like if anybody's willing to walk away 738 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 4: despite the good times, John Schneider's kind of prove that 739 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 4: time in and time out over his time there, he 740 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 4: ain't tripping. I know, I don't think he's going to 741 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 4: go you know, whether even if it was a hometown 742 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 4: discoun I don't think he's going to stretch too far 743 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 4: over the table to bring anybody back. Like we got 744 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,800 Speaker 4: the coach, we got the QB, we got the defensive 745 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 4: front and core. We're gonna find their way there regardless. 746 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: I like that talker moving forward, because Mike McDonald became 747 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: the first defensive play calling coach to win a Super Bowl, 748 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,399 Speaker 1: all right, the first, not the first defensive minded coach 749 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 1: to win a Super Bowl. But Belichick didn't call his plays. 750 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll didn't call his plays. Now McDonald calls the plays. 751 00:34:55,400 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: So he's the first defensive play calling coach super Bowl. 752 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: That shows you how infrequent things like that are. What So, yeah, 753 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 1: that's true. So with with Mike McDonald has a D 754 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,359 Speaker 1: E I E I O and on that d as 755 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: a bunch of dogs e I E I O. Uh 756 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: with that compared to like here, Okay, defense was the 757 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 1: identity of this football team, was one of the better 758 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 1: defenses in the NFL in Minnesota. Is floor is what 759 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:29,280 Speaker 1: he pulled out of certain players? Okay, in certain types 760 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: of games? Does McDonald do the same thing or does 761 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: he just have the best talent because Biron Murphy is 762 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: supposed to they're Biern Murphy supposed to be good, and 763 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 1: he is DeMarcus Lawrence high end and he is Ernest 764 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: Jones the fourth Okay, now there's a talker. What they're 765 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: getting out of him because the Rams let him go. Yep, 766 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 1: So let's let's let's keep that in the metaphorical back pocket. 767 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: Moving forward, news do Nord. 768 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 4: Truncated news Denord, which is always brought to you by 769 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 4: the casino at Canterbury Parkcanterbury Park dot com, Poker, blackjack 770 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 4: and table games all year round. Live racing about to 771 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 4: lift off again just a couple of months from now, 772 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 4: so looking forward to that Canterbury Park dot Com for 773 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 4: more details. I will start with the Wolves. They get 774 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 4: beat by nearly twenty yesterday La Clippers in town a 775 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 4: little matinee mid afternoon, trying to avoid that Super Bowl 776 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 4: time slot. They did so, and the Wolves looked like 777 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 4: they were trying to avoid Kawhi Leonard for most of 778 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 4: that as he lifted off for forty one to lead 779 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 4: the Clips. But the Wolves now a couple nasty ones 780 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 4: in a row, but different circumstances where New Orleans on 781 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,479 Speaker 4: Friday night, they're up nearly twenty in the third quarter, 782 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 4: find their way to an l there and then yesterday 783 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 4: it was like they never got out of the starting blocks. 784 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 4: Something to look at. As we talked about podcast, well, 785 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 4: by the way, you hear from Chris Hine, who covers 786 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,439 Speaker 4: the Minnesota Timberwolves. He joined PA during the opening hour 787 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 4: with a good breakdown, just kind of on the mood, 788 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 4: the mentality of things right now. I played some audio 789 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 4: about Rudy Gobert, frustrated about accountability and urgency and all 790 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 4: of those things. Chris Hines a tremendous guests. But the 791 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 4: debut of Io Desumu, who went twenty five minutes off 792 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,320 Speaker 4: the bench, four eleven shooting, but he did hit a 793 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 4: few triples, some good moments for him, a couple of takes, 794 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 4: so appreciating him and his ascension. As we'll get to 795 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 4: see the Wolves again today hosting Atlanta. Two more games 796 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,399 Speaker 4: between between now and then the All Star break, which 797 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 4: many are believing is a good time for this team 798 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 4: to take a breath and come back together. 799 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: Jimmy Kay, Jimmy Knuts, and King of the Rubes sent 800 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: us some video of when how do you say the 801 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:37,439 Speaker 1: name again? 802 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:37,760 Speaker 2: Ao? 803 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: What IoT? Iodasumu? I believe Io Desumo, iiO Desumu, Iyo Desumu, 804 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: Io Desumo. The King King of the Rubes sent some 805 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: video of when Io came into the game for the 806 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:53,240 Speaker 1: first time. I mean with with the King of the Rubes. 807 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: You would have thought it was either a former six 808 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: Man of the Year Kevin McHale, Michael Cooper for the 809 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: La Lakers, a younger Lou Williams, or even younger Jordan 810 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 1: Clarkson come in and off the bench. But he got 811 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: a rousing ovation and his defense is needed in the Covenant. 812 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:15,280 Speaker 1: Offense was the problem yesterday. Defense was the problem Friday 813 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: against Knowledge Finchi's team yesterday failed to score more than 814 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: one hundred points. Only for the second time this year. 815 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: Atlanta put one of the more embarrassing losses on the Timberwolves. 816 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: Earlier this year. I think it was New Year's Eve. 817 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: Uh and Atlanta since trading Trey Young, they received Cory 818 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: Kissbert and CJ. McCullum from Washington, plus plus others. And 819 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: this Jalen Johnson. I mean Atlanta is engaged, all right. 820 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 1: Atlanta was not engaged. Atlanta now is engaged as a 821 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: team with a very very bad record. However they do 822 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: and and and Alexander Walker and Nikill thank you. I 823 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 1: was gonna call him Nicholas Nikkeiel returns tonight. So it's 824 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 1: gonna be one of those bits where it's like this 825 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: is big for our dog. He didn't want him, Yeah, 826 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: and we took him pat making it sound like they 827 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: got him off the street, even though he's really good 828 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: and he's having a great season. This is a tricky 829 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 1: They're all tricky right now. When when one game you're 830 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,719 Speaker 1: letting the Pelicans get close to one, and then the 831 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: next game you can't score one hundred, right, So they're 832 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: all tricky right now. For those who haven't seen Jalen 833 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: Johnson play MVP candidate, he's not gonna win it, but 834 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: MVP candidate, he's fantastic. So Wolves are six and a 835 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 1: half point favorites this evening. Maybe God be with everybody. 836 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, beat the Hawks, beat the Blazers. Heading to the break. 837 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 4: You got Dallas on the other side of it. Let's 838 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 4: let's find our winning ways here.
