Speaker 2: ten twelve minutes from now. Double B Brett Blakemore filling

Speaker 2: in for Nordo today. He was at Lake of the

22
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: Woods over the weekend at Ballard's resort with A with

23
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 2: a I think a sponsored trip, some some type of

24
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 2: listener related trip. So he'll be back tomorrow. I will

25
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: be in Indianapolis for the scouting Combine courtesy of the

26
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: Vikings later today and tomorrow and Wednesday. Combine related radio

27
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 2: shows mentioned it a couple of times last week, but

28
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 2: Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell and the acting general manager

29
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 2: Rob Razinski are not speaking at the podium at Indianapolis. Now,

30
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: They're not the only ones not speaking at the podium.

31
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 2: It's it's a yearly occurrence for a fair amount of

32
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 2: coaches because they like, you know, I've gotten to know

33
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: the coach of Brett Blakemore's favorite team, the Green Bay Packers,

34
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 2: Matt Lafleur, over about the last five years, and so

35
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: Matt and I are in touch with each other every

36
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 2: so often. And last year the Packers didn't go to

37
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 2: the combine, like they didn't send anybody because they can

38
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 2: get everything. As Matt told me last year, they can

39
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 2: get everything they well, when I say didn't send anybody,

40
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 2: I'm just speaking for the coaching staff. They can get

41
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: everything done they need to get done. From afar, and

42
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 2: I think that may be the case with Green Bay

43
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: this year. The Vikings represent with their coaches and their

44
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 2: personnel people and scouts and everything obviously, but for whatever

45
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 2: the reason, Kevin O'Connell and the acting GM are not

46
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 2: speaking at the podium. So how does that play into you. Well,

47
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 2: this evening, Bersich and I he'll be co hosting the

48
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 2: two shows. We are going to record an elongated interview

49
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 2: with Kevin O'Connell and we will play it back in

50
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 2: two parts tomorrow. So the only place that you will

51
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 2: be able to hear Kevin O'Connell talk about the Combine

52
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: and free agency, in the NFL Competition Committee, quarterback situation,

53
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy and stuff like that, will be nine to

54
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 2: noon tomorrow, and I think the first one will be

55
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 2: at about nine to twenty in the morning. Likewise, for

56
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: the acting General Manager, Rob Razinski, he will be on

57
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: the nine to noon radio show Wednesday from the Convention

58
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 2: Center in Indianapolis. Combine trip number sixteen for me and

59
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: yours truly leaves a little later today to go to that. Now.

60
00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: The Minnesota Wild will reconvene Thursday. Again. It's the Colorado

61
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 2: Avalanche at Ball arena. So it's you know, when we

62
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: had Kevin Gorgon about an hour ago, and he's the

63
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 2: he's the side rink analyst for fan duels, so he'll

64
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 2: be on the trip, he'll be on air on demand,

65
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 2: on fire and at the game Ball Arena and in Denver.

66
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 2: So that's going to be I mean, all your favorite Olympians, man,

67
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 2: I mean McKinnon and Taves and Landeskog and Boldy along

68
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: with Hughesy I mean, and and by the way, you

69
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 2: begin a part of the season where you have twenty

70
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: four games to go with. Now what two or three

71
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 2: people have told nine to noon the last week and change.

72
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 2: And you know, for hardcore hockey fans in the state

73
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: of hockey, this this isn't breaking news here, but this

74
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 2: is the greatest Minnesota Wild team in the history of

75
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: the team, according to learned minds, not like Pomp and

76
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 2: Circumstance or Paul bear Allen hoping to not metaphorically ca

77
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,559
Speaker 2: read the team out after a first round exit. Again,

78
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 2: So Brett Blakemore, this is this is your favorite team.

79
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: I would have said behind the behind the Green Bay Packers,

80
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 2: right Packers Wild or Wild Packers? I say Wild Packers.

81
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 2: This is my team. Yeah, like the middle of the sentence,

82
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 2: I knew I was messing up. So, I mean Thursday

83
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 2: night with all these people coming back in the atmosphere

84
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 2: and and you know, then you got Sunday here for

85
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: a matinee where they're going to celebrate Hughesy and and

86
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 2: Ecki and Baldsey in the whole thing.

87
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: I mean that this whole thing right now is good

88
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 1: enough to eat. Yeah, it's it is the best team

89
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: in wild history. And and shout out too to uh,

90
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: you know, unsung hero out of the three brock Favor.

91
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: He was unbelievable. It was an entire tournament name yeah,

92
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 1: he hit the post yesterday, he hit the posts. He

93
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: also that five on three that we just had to kill.

94
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: Who was the defensing out there? It was brock Favor

95
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: most of the time there, I think for like a

96
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: minute and twenty of yeah, it was twenty six I think, yeah, yeah,

97
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: so he he is unbelievable. And the fact that we're

98
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: going to get to see Hugheson Favor back on a

99
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: pairing and hopefully that momentum does carry over. But it's

100
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it's out of the frying pan and

101
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: in the fire. But I would say it's out of

102
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: the fire and into the the pan because the Hals

103
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: are a very very good hockey team. With all those

104
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: Olympians that you just named, we did get a handful

105
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: of good Olympic talkbacks as well, refreshing the old back machine.

106
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: So if we want to fire away on some of

107
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: those as well.

108
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 2: I'd love to because when you told me we had one,

109
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 2: because you had like people dancing in the locker room

110
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 2: who weren't on the hockey team, and then people phoning

111
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: into the gold, gold medal winning hockey team, and some

112
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 2: people were not able to see the forest for the

113
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 2: trees with that, But that's okay, that's their forest, and

114
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 2: I guess it's their trees, so I understand Yoga, Yeah,

115
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 2: it was here a couple.

116
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 3: If he had great segment with David Back is always

117
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 3: great to hear from him. I know I've heard some

118
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 3: of my Canadian friends say that the game was not

119
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 3: the greatest officiating game. I tend to just degree as Canada.

120
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 3: You know, with the five on three power play, should

121
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 3: have put at least one through the net on that

122
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 3: as well. And we've USA and canadadath had great chances regardless.

123
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 2: Go USA. Uh excellent talkback. Yeah, I thought the officiating.

124
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 2: I thought there was some whistles swallowing yesterday. That's okay,

125
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: it's it's it's for the Olympic gold. I mean, wait,

126
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 2: you know we talked about this a little bit last week.

127
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 2: Do I have Caprice often Hughesy related concerns in the postseason? Nah,

128
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 2: because they're high enders. However, specifically with Hughsey, with Quinn,

129
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 2: like Jared Spurgeon, it can't be disputed that they're on

130
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 2: the smaller side, and officials, refs swallow their whistles in

131
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: the postseason. That's why there's no fighting. That's why you

132
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 2: get some physicality center of the icon in these buck battles,

133
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: you know where where people get they get knocked around,

134
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 2: specifically of the of the smaller body. I was chirping yesterday,

135
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 2: Man Jack wins the game, they all converge by the

136
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 2: glass to celebrate. Well, there's the other Hughsey right in

137
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 2: the middle of the right, in the middle of the scrum,

138
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 2: and I'm like, don't hurt Hughesy. They're all jumping up

139
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: and down. Let's not hurt our guy here. Okay, he's

140
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 2: in the middle of this action and then he has

141
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 2: a little bit of diminutive to him. But he got

142
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 2: out of it alive, as will this team Thursday. What's next.

143
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think that there was enough powerplay chances

144
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: to go around for both teams, and it took Jack

145
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: Hughes losing and chipping several teeth to get a penalty, right, So,

146
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: I mean I think the officials thing, Yeah, the too

147
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: many men on.

148
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 2: The ice, it's a little well, there were two, I

149
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 2: mean many, but there were two immortality like moments in

150
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: that game yesterday. And we could talk about we can

151
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: make it ten if you want to put Hello buck

152
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 2: stuff in there. But when Baldy split the double team, yeah,

153
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 2: and the way he elevated the puck and maneuvered the

154
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 2: puck and had and kept the speed. Yeah, that's that's

155
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: as good as you're ever going to see. And with Jack,

156
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 2: you know when when macarr and Hughes went for the

157
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 2: same puck and correct me if I'm wrong here with

158
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 2: the way I'm phraising this. McCart didn't play the puck.

159
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 2: He just did. He just kind of stuck his stick

160
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 2: out a little bit. He old laid it a little

161
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 2: bit boom, and there goes Hughes, Warenski will Rensky. If

162
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 2: you play daily Fantasy Underdog prize Picks or whatever, you

163
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,599
Speaker 2: know who Zach will Rerensky is. It's one of the

164
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 2: best blue liners in the NHL. And quite honestly, it's

165
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 2: not close. But I mean I'm not saying the best,

166
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 2: because I know we got maccarm using stuff. Well, Zach

167
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 2: Warrensky is the bomb. Well, his past was fantastic. It

168
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 2: just has to go bang. Everything has to go bang

169
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 2: bang bang to get the gold and the stuffies and

170
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 2: and and they did so that those are two things

171
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: right there that a lot of people are never going

172
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 2: to forget.

214
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 2: A little bit. Man. You know what I forgot. I

215
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 2: forgot to ask David Bacchus if he's ever had run

216
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 2: ins with Canadian defenseman Tom Wilson, because when that guy

217
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: hits you, he stays hit. What you stay hit? But

218
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: for the purpose of this conversation, here is beloved Parker Fox.

219
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 2: He's back from a Milan two weeks in change, right, Yeah,

220
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 2: sixteen days for me? Yeah? Long one? What a journey

221
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 2: did you? Did you ever get home sick?

222
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: You know?

223
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 5: It was kind of a weird deal because it's like,

224
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 5: I'm the type where I like routines, right, We're similar

225
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 5: in that way, and you like to, you know, see

226
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 5: your people and know what you got going on. But

227
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 5: when you're over there celebrating Team USA and you're celebrating

228
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 5: your fiance, and you know there's games, there's always a

229
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 5: game ahead of you. It's like, how can you even

230
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 5: miss home when you know you get to go watch

231
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 5: you know, someone who's who's so important for you to

232
00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 5: you do you know what she loves to do?

233
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 2: So is fiance Taylor heisi is she's still on cloud nine.

234
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, she's she's been feeling it for sure. They've been

235
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 5: they've been partying pretty good. They went to the closing

236
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,559
Speaker 5: ceremonies last night, which was actually in Verona, so I

237
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 5: think it was about a two hour train ride on

238
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 5: one of those bullet trains over to Verona. They didn't

239
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 5: get back to the village till about two thirty am,

240
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 5: and that's right when the men's team was getting back

241
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 5: for the village too. So they said they all went

242
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 5: to the cafeteria together and just got to celebrate the

243
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 5: men which was pretty sweet.

244
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 2: So she watched the game.

245
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, So they went to the first two and a

246
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 5: half periods, which was kind of unfortunate, but they had

247
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 5: no other solution. They had to get on a train

248
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 5: to get to closing ceremonies, so they had to leave

249
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 5: halfway through the third, but they said they were all

250
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 5: on the train with their iPhones and watching the game

251
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 5: and get to see Jack Hughes end that thing and

252
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 5: send America to the top.

253
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: What was it important for Taylor to be at the

254
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 2: closing ceremonies because it's and there are those who win goals.

255
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 2: You know, maybe they got obligations here, there and everywhere. Yeah,

256
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 2: if they got bumped from something relatively early, it's you know,

257
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 2: from what I understand, they have the opportunity to wait

258
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 2: around and go to the closing ceremony, but a lot

259
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: of them leave. What was that important to her to

260
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 2: go to that? Yeah? I think it was important to

261
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 2: the team. Right.

262
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 5: This is a you know, this is a hockey team

263
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 5: that you know, people are toting as the best women's

264
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 5: hockey team ever. Right, So I think when you're a

265
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 5: part of that, and when you're a part of winning gold,

266
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 5: you build a bond that goes beyond a lot of

267
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 5: other things.

268
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 2: Right.

269
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 5: So you talk to some of these other people that

270
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 5: you've been a part of so many teams, but you

271
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 5: don't really keep in touch with the losing teams, right,

272
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 5: but if you win gold together and you're connected as

273
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 5: a unit, that's a group that kind of stays together

274
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 5: for a long time.

275
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 2: So that is a part of it.

276
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 5: And then you know, twofold, they're five time Olympic captain

277
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 5: and all time goalscorer.

278
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: Hillary Night was the flag bear.

279
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 5: So for them to be behind her and you know,

280
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 5: represent her alongside of her she is I mean, she's

281
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 5: about as classic and as classical human being you'll ever meet.

282
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 2: She's she's the leader.

283
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 5: She has done so much behind the scenes to even

284
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 5: make it possible for the women to play at this level,

285
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 5: which is something that doesn't go unnoticed by Taylor and

286
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 5: many other people. So supporting her was also really important.

287
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:19,359
Speaker 2: So you mentioned the connectivity, you know of like lifetime

288
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 2: friendships established, and you got the coaches and the thing

289
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 2: and the whole thing off that, what are the chances you,

290
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 2: Parker Fox, stay in touch with all of your new

291
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 2: friends via that Malan group chantw it's still rocketed, all,

292
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's still rocketed all.

293
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 5: And it's so great to just see that the families

294
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 5: come together and just just be so proud of their

295
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 5: daughter or their sister or their brother, you know whatever.

296
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 2: It may be.

297
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 5: To be a part of this roster like, it doesn't

298
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 5: just happen right, Like it takes sacrifices from a lot

299
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 5: of people around you. It takes sacrifices from yourself. I

300
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 5: know Taylor's story and the sacrifices that she had to

301
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 5: make throughout her life to get there, and you know,

302
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 5: also with her family, and to just be a part

303
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 5: of that and to put your pride aside for a

304
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 5: little bit and and to tear on your country.

305
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 2: It's it's truly one of the most special things.

306
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 5: And for me, I still I'm getting chills even talking

307
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 5: about it, Like I could cry this thinking about how

308
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 5: special that moment was for her. She was the last

309
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 5: cut in twenty twenty two and it was really heavy

310
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 5: on her, and you know, she put her head down

311
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 5: and worked and now here she is, and she has

Speaker 5: the game winning assists to send USA to the top.

313
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 5: It's unbelievable.

314
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 2: P Just saying she has the game winning assists to

315
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 2: win a gold medal crazy. It gives me chills. Man, Yeah,

316
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: And I could I could tell. But you know, because

317
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 2: you and I stayed in Dutch a lot while you

318
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 2: were over there, and then seeing you here now man, Yeah,

319
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 2: it's a it's yeah. I can just tell this is

320
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 2: gonna resonate, this is this will resonate forever. Yeah. This

321
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 2: is something where people are like, well, I'll never forget that. Well,

322
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: I'm never gonna forget that card your game, man, never

323
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 2: forget this car or whatever. No, this is one that

324
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 2: never it will be delible, It never will leave your heart.

325
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, there will be very few days in the future,

326
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 5: maybe a wedding hopefully, if God willing, some kids that

327
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 5: that top and Olympic.

328
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 2: Gold medal day.

329
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 5: But you know, I told people after the game, that

330
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 5: was one of the special, more special things.

331
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 2: That ever happened to me.

332
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 5: And I've played in a lot of games, and I've

333
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 5: played a lot of big moments, but.

334
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 2: You've seen Taylor in a lot of game and I've

335
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 2: seen her.

336
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 5: In a lot of big moments, but nothing compares to

337
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 5: seeing those Olympic rings and watching that puck just trickle

338
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 5: through the net probably twenty five thirty feet in front

339
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 5: of me, and to just watch it happen was just

340
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 5: truly unbelievable.

341
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 2: Did you photo bomb the big on ice team picture?

342
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 2: And because I was, because that, I mean, that's what

343
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 2: p Fox does, but he does it in classy, fun,

344
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,360
Speaker 2: hyperactive fashion. So I was looking at the on ice

345
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 2: bit you know, where they're holding the goals, and you

346
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 2: got the one sitting up front. It's classic hockey type

347
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 2: picture after winning something big, and I was looking through

348
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 2: everybody behind, so like if you're looking at the picture

349
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: straight ahead, then there's like a tunnel and then there

350
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 2: I think I saw pea Fox.

351
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 5: I was behind there for sure. I was trying to

352
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 5: creep my way. But you what I did do is

353
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 5: I threw my phone over the glass to Taylor. She's

354
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 5: like them your phone. So she had some pretty sweet

355
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 5: pictures on the ice with the you know, with the

356
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 5: gold medals. Like not a lot of people have their

357
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 5: phones down there, so some exclusive pictures. But no, it's

358
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 5: one of those things, PA where it's like you want

359
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 5: to celebrate with them, but you also just want them

360
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 5: to enjoy the work and what they put in with

361
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 5: the group. Right, Like you're living in a village together

362
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,959
Speaker 5: for three weeks, and your training and your you know,

363
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 5: every meal you eat is focused, and you have a

364
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 5: strength trainer and you have you know, sports nutrition, and

365
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 5: you have sports psychology, and like everything you're doing together

366
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 5: is this unit and this group and and you just

367
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 5: want them to celebrate it. So to be a small

368
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 5: part of that celebration after and we had a good

369
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 5: time after, I'll tell you what. But to be a

370
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 5: small part of that was super special. And to just

371
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 5: watch these girls they deserved it and it was truly

372
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 5: just one of the biggest, most special days of my life.

373
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean I got I got a lot

374
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 2: of now in fairness, because I had the privilege of

375
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 2: speaking Thursday evening in peer South Dakota for the South

376
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 2: Dakota Chamber of Commerce. So therefore, with the travel back

377
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 2: and everything, I didn't get a chance to see all

378
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 2: of the game, but the parts that I saw and

379
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 2: then subsequently playing Covenant ketchup reading about it after, I mean,

380
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 2: I got a lot of respect for these Canadians, honestly,

381
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 2: whether it's Edmonton Buffalo that the Qualified whatever whatever it

382
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 2: was it called the Rivalry series. Rivalry Series, Yeah, I

383
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 2: mean they were getting dusted by the United States of

384
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 2: America with Poohland playing their captain. Okay, so what do

385
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 2: they get beat five zero something like that the first time,

386
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 2: but without her and she comes back and she can

387
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 2: play and she's a high ender. But the collective Canadian group,

388
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 2: clearly you could tell before the game with what however

389
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 2: they schemed it whatever, the structure was changed lines, I

390
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 2: don't know what they did, all right? That five Oh,

391
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 2: that ain't it? Rivalry? That ain't it either? So ladies,

392
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 2: we may we may not win. Yeah, okay, Red, what

393
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 2: a bunch of good. They're very good over there totally

394
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 2: at five? Oh, ain't it? And this is for the

395
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 2: gold medal and they brought everything. Yeah, it was.

396
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 5: It was one of those games where you know, you

397
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 5: go into it and you see the line. The US

398
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 5: was two and a half point favorites. And I'm not

399
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 5: a betting man and I had too much skin in

400
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,880
Speaker 5: the game to put ever put money down in that situation.

401
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 5: But I could have guaranteed you it wasn't going to

402
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 5: be a three goal game. There's no way. This is

403
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 5: a hockey team that they've won two World championships over

404
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 5: the last four years. They won the last Olympic gold medal.

405
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 5: Almost every skater from that roster was back on that team.

406
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 5: So this isn't like, this isn't some what do they say?

407
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 5: This is some throwaway game up in Rochester, right like

408
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 5: this is this was the Olympics, this was the US

409
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 5: versus Canada.

410
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 2: I don't care what's going on.

411
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 5: And it's hockey, Pa, I think you say a seven

412
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 5: game series, it's one hockey game. It's not a round ball.

413
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 5: It's a puck that can flip and go in any direction.

414
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 5: And sure enough, you saw they score around, you know,

415
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 5: on the PK and they get an a man rush

416
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 5: on the PK at two on one and they find

417
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 5: that back of the net. That's when my fingernails started

418
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,360
Speaker 5: to really dwindle down and things are getting a little nervous.

419
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 2: But I always had faith in this team.

420
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 5: And finally when I saw that puckled back of the

421
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 5: night from Hillary Night to set the record and to

422
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 5: put that thing one to one and send it to

423
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 5: all overtime, I knew they were going to win that

424
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 5: thing in overtime.

425
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 2: Swinging this one around the corner with Parker Fox. So

426
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 2: we'll make it to Steve's Appliance's marathon segment. President's Day

437
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 2: was it when they were down to Canada one zero

438
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 2: with two minutes to go in the game, and before

439
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 2: Hillary Knight scored the equalizer and a record setting goal

440
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 2: for her.

441
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 5: It was really a nerve wracking day two minutes to go, Yeah,

442
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 5: it was.

443
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 2: It was.

444
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 5: It was one of those days, Pa where I never

445
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 5: told Taylor anything, you know, too crazy to hyper up

446
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 5: or you know, to pump her tires like she does

447
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 5: that enough for herself. The one thing I told her

448
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,160
Speaker 5: was you've already done the work, you know, for twenty

449
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 5: six years of your life. You've done what you needed

450
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 5: to do to get here. Now you get the opportunity

451
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 5: to go put on a show and and to go

452
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 5: win yourself a gold medal, and so I was pretty

453
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 5: even keel that whole day and going into that game,

454
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 5: I try to not get too high too low, just

455
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 5: enjoy the game for what it was, soak in all

456
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 5: the moments. And you know, fifty seven minutes into that game,

457
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 5: it's it's one to zero and you know, you're getting

458
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 5: offensive zone.

459
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 2: Draw and we could change ago you beat them five zero.

460
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 5: I know, yeah, so you're feeling different type of ways

461
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,479
Speaker 5: for sure, But I knew it was one of those

462
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,479
Speaker 5: opportunities where you got to pull the goalie eventually, right

463
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 5: like who knows exactly when you do it. I think

464
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 5: there's two and a half minutes on the clock, and yep,

465
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 5: and I see Taylor skating back out there because she

466
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 5: was the extra. She was the extra skater on the

467
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 5: ice with the top line, and I saw him win

468
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 5: the drawback and you got six on five in the

469
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 5: offensive zone and Layla Edwards, who has arguably one of

470
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 5: the best shots in the world with the puck on

471
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 5: her stick, and she fires one in Annette and sure

472
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 5: enough there sits you know, five to eleven, one hundred

473
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 5: and eighty pound Hillary Night to tip it in and

474
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 5: get that thing into the back of the net.

475
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 2: So how and now that the arena where you watched

476
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 2: all these games and where the men played smaller side, right.

477
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it was a pretty big arena, but they

478
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 5: didn't they didn't finish, so you know, you saw the

479
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 5: drama of like it kind of coming along, so the

480
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 5: back half instead of like you know, three forces of

481
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 5: the circle with seatings, and then that extra fourth was

482
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 5: just tarped off.

483
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 2: So I think the original plan was to have it.

484
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 2: They don't have an upper deck.

485
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 5: They did have an upper deck, but I was cut

486
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 5: off by media, a lot of media seats, So I

487
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 5: think it was intended to be a sixteen thousand seed arena.

488
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 5: But I think eleven fit in there, so pretty good

489
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 5: size still.

490
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, but still on the smaller side comparatively speaking. So

491
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 2: here's a question. How great did the vox of all

492
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,360
Speaker 2: voxes ever to vox sound in that tiny arena? Oh?

493
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 2: So good?

494
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 5: I showed Taylor that video too, right, and she was very,

495
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 5: very grateful that he took that thing.

496
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 2: Unbelievable.

497
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 5: He was so good at his work, and you know

498
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 5: he had to be so strategic too to pause and

499
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 5: let the Italians speak their language too.

500
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 2: Twenty seven Taylor heizi bunchobell economy, right, exactly right, Yeah,

501
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 2: exactly right.

502
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 5: So but it was special and and to kind of

503
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 5: have him sitting there and you know, he's got some

504
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 5: USA pride and he knew there's a little extra you know,

505
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 5: vocal cord going into that that uh, you know, game

506
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 5: scored goal, that's for sure.

507
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. Parker fox back from Milan fiance Taylor

508
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 2: Heisi gets the gold with the USA women or that

509
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 2: there was late last week yesterday team USA and the

510
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 2: men they beat Canada and the United States of America

511
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 2: sweeps golds and hockey from Canada for the first time

512
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 2: in the history of either country. So what did you

513
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 2: guys do after the game? What was the gold medal

514
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 2: winning party? Like?

515
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, so there was actually, you know, at the Olympics,

516
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 5: each country has their house, right, so like Netherlands has

517
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 5: a house.

518
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 2: Check, you know, the whole bit.

519
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 5: The US house was called the Winterhouse and it was

520
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 5: probably about fifteen minutes from from the stadium.

521
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 2: Men and women stay there. Yeah, so no, they all

522
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 2: stay in the village.

523
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 5: But the Winter House is basically like this hotel transformed

524
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 5: into just like a location for USA athletes and family

525
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 5: and friends to go and hang out and cocktails and

526
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 5: beer and water.

527
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, yeah, there you go exactly.

528
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 5: So it was about fifteen minutes from the arena, and

529
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 5: as a group of you know, fans and family, we

530
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 5: knew that the girls were going to be celebrating the

531
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 5: locker room.

532
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 2: They're going to have all their media.

533
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 5: They weren't going to be able to come up to

534
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 5: the concourse to see everybody, but we would meet him

535
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 5: at the Winterhouse. So everybody got over there and everybody

536
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 5: kind of started drinking, you know, tune themselves up a

537
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 5: little bit, and then income the girls and it was

538
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 5: just an absolute celebration and just just just so much

539
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 5: excitement from from everybody.

540
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 2: You know, they come in right, No, they had completely.

541
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 5: Showered and changed, and I'd gotten over there and put

542
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 5: all their team USA gear on, and to hear you.

543
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 2: Guys would say in dinky Town, they were fixing to

Speaker 2: get lit. They're fixing to get lit. Yeah, they're fixing

545
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 2: to get lit. Yeah they were. They were out a

546
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 2: little late past me. I actually clocked out and went

547
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 2: to bed and they were still party in the night away.

548
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 2: So yeah, unbelievable. Did you hapen to see any of

549
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 2: the media situations involving Taylor or the ladies and like,

550
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 2: were there any were there any dumb questions, like any

551
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 2: uncomfort anything uncomfortable about Canada being I don't know what

552
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,360
Speaker 2: it was. Yeah, nothing, I saw, you know, too crazy.

553
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 5: Taylor does a really good job of, you know, speaking

554
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 5: what she wants to speak, and you know, she she's

555
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 5: really great with the media. And I met Sarah Spain,

556
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 5: which was great, and even Sarah Spain said to me,

557
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 5: she was like, if Taylor wants to get into media

558
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 5: after this, she'd be great connections, no doubt. I might

559
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 5: not need the banker anymore though.

560
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 2: We need the banker, man, We need the banker. We

561
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 2: need the banker more than you need Sarah's man. Yeah, right, exactly.

562
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 5: But no, just meeting different people over there, and Russo

563
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 5: was over there covering the whole.

564
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 2: Thing, and he's so good, good at what he's excellent.

565
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 5: I never got to see him or talk to him,

566
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 5: but I definitely followed along with all his stuff and

567
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 5: you know, he's on it and he's so great and

568
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 5: Taylor loves working with him too.

569
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 2: Megan Keller is the one to score the golden goal.

570
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 2: What's she like and is he is her family in

571
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 2: the Milan group chat. Yeah, they're in the group chat.

572
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 2: She is I mean, she wears the A on her

573
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 2: chest to assistant captain. And she's just as steady of

574
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 2: a player and a person is you'll ever meet, you know,

575
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 2: just getting to know her and to know her family

576
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 2: over the past couple of weeks, there isn't a person

577
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 2: that's more deserving. She's so humble, you know.

578
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 5: Her first response to everything was, you know, Taylor made

579
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 5: a great pass or you know, the team put me

580
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 5: in position. It wasn't about me making the nastiest move

581
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 5: I've ever seen. Goodness, gracious, was that slipped through nasty? Yes,

582
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 5: and the ability to slip it through the defender and

583
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,880
Speaker 5: score the goal, like that's that's high end stuff, man.

584
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 5: And none of it was you know, you know, puffing

585
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,399
Speaker 5: my shoulders up, puffing my chest. It was all about

586
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 5: the team. So so she definitely deserved it. And and

587
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 5: she's having a great career, you know in the p

588
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 5: W channel, a great you know season with the Boston Fleet.

589
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 2: What dumb what's the best meal you had over there?

590
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 2: And why?

591
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,719
Speaker 5: So that's such a hard question because everything was good, right,

592
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 5: we talked about Yeah, everything's just lamb. I did have

593
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 5: some lamb, had some veal. Yeah, veal was really good.

594
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,440
Speaker 5: I did yeap. Eggplant parm was something that I never

595
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 5: thought I would like, but I enjoyed. But I think

596
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 5: my number one would be it's a Milan classic. It's

597
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 5: a asabuco and risotto. So you got the yeah yeah,

598
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 5: covenants class for that. Man, that was unbelievable. You got

599
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 5: the risotto, the cheesy, the parmesan. Then you got the

600
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 5: beef with the boney at the bone. Man, Oh, just unbelievable.

601
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 2: Are the serving sizes in Europe generally speaking on the larger, middle,

602
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 2: middling or small size. And the reason I bring it

603
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 2: up is from now granted, you know, well, I mean

604
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 2: I was in London and or Dublin for I mean

605
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 2: it was a week in change, whatever it was, and

606
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 2: so went to a lot of places. Now at Europe,

607
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 2: this is Italy at Europe, but it's different. The portion

608
00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 2: sizes were always a little small for big yeah yeah.

609
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 2: I think for US Americans they're definitely had this smaller end.

610
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 2: It was funny we were out to dinner one night

611
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 2: and you know, some of the meals they do over there,

612
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 2: they only serve it in you know, double portions that

613
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 2: we're like, oh well just take the double portion because

614
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 2: that's about what you're going to get in America regardless.

615
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 2: But no, all the food is so good, you.

616
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 5: Know, just fresh pizzas and pastas and everything homemade, and

617
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,719
Speaker 5: it's so unique when you're running around Milan, you can

618
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 5: basically hop in anywhere and somebody will make spaghetti for you.

619
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 2: So what you mean?

620
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 5: It was like all these little restaurants like just like

621
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 5: a home. No, I mean they would probably do that too.

622
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 5: There's such nice people over there, but just all these

623
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 5: little hole in the wall restaurants and it was just

624
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 5: it was truly a special place.

625
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 2: Did you did you ever find any part of Milan

626
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 2: or anywhere in Italy where you walked in and you

627
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 2: felt it had a little bit of a gangster lane

628
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 2: to it. I did it.

629
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 5: I wasn't too much in the the Italian like mob

630
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 5: neighborhoods or whatever you would call it. I did mention

631
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 5: to you that my one of my second cousins lives

632
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 5: in Milan, so I sent them my Airbnb's and I

633
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 5: was like, these are good areas, And the first one

634
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 5: he sent me, he's like that was a little a

635
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 5: little sketchy, but yeah, a little little uh yeah, that

636
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 5: was the music walking out of my airbav every morning.

637
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 5: But no, it's so great. You just hop into a

638
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 5: random spot, get a cappuccino and a croissant for about

639
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 5: three year.

640
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 2: Oh, it's unbelievable. Could you see yourself obviously with Taylor

641
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 2: and or an oncoming family. Could you see yourselves living

642
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 2: in Italy or living in Europe. Wow, that's a great time.

643
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

644
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 5: We're such family people, right, so I think, you know,

645
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 5: being close to our families.

646
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 2: Would be something special. But we're also travelers.

647
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 5: We love to travel, so I think, you know, doing

648
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 5: a couple of weeks or go and visiting you know,

649
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 5: family or friends and other places would be fun.

650
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 2: But now we got it. We gotta be here. We

651
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 2: gotta be home in the USA. What what? What? What

652
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 2: are some things or thing that you noticed were or

653
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 2: was big time different over there compared to life here

654
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 2: in the I mean when you're there for two weeks

655
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 2: and change. I mean, obviously you know you're not taking

656
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 2: up residency, but it's certainly not a cruise stop. I

657
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 2: know everything about Montego Bay. Now why I was there

658
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 2: six hours or a week at a Sandals resort in

659
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 2: Turks and Caicos, So you get a chance to see

660
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 2: a very little bit. But when you're walking the streets

661
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 2: and you're in a situation like this for two plus weeks, yeah,

662
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 2: you kind of get a feel for you kind of

663
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 2: get a feel for what they're doing over there. What what?

664
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 2: What are some things ah that just quick twitch hit

665
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 2: your heart that are dramatically different there compared to life here.

666
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 5: I think the people were so great, Like everywhere you

667
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 5: went is you know, the people were you know, demonstrative

668
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 5: and just excited and enthusiastic, and every restaurant you sat

669
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 5: down at people were excited to have you there. And

670
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 5: you know, I think a lot of times, you know, here,

671
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 5: you get you know, don't get me wrong, you get

672
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 5: great waiters and waitresses, but sometimes you get somebody who

673
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 5: may not be too excited to be at their job

674
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 5: that night. And I didn't have that in Italy. Everybody

675
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 5: was so fired up. And the one thing we had

676
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 5: we went on a tour, and the one thing they

677
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 5: said was like Italians, they don't get paid very much.

678
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 5: It's a it's kind of a you know, a lesser

679
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 5: class in terms of like wages, but nobody looks down

680
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 5: if you're like working at McDonald's versus you're working, you know,

681
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 5: somewhere else. You know, people are just you know, they're

682
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 5: part of the society. They're doing their thing and they're

683
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 5: all kind to each other. And that's something that I

684
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 5: think was really kind of unique to see is no

685
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 5: matter where you went, no matter where you were, everybody

686
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 5: had a lot of love. And I think they like

687
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 5: to see the Americans too, so they were they were

688
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 5: buttering us up as well.

689
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,840

00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 4: the ball.

Speaker 2: Jack Hughes housing the golden goal and Parker Fox? Where?

706
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 2: Where and or how did you watch it? I was

707
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 2: on a fight.

708
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was on a delta flight from stopped in

709
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,240
Speaker 5: Paris and then Paris, MSP.

710
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 2: So I was thirty thousand feet in the sky. What

711
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 2: negative would you have been if you because this happens occasionally. Yeah,

712
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 2: you get on a flight and you're like, fight doesn't work? No, well, no,

713
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 2: the Wi Fi generally will work over the ocean, the

714
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 2: whole thing. Uh huh. But what if it says no

715
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 2: live TV? Oh, I know, right, just it would.

716
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 5: Have been your phone, right, Yeah, I was so, I

717
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 5: was so nervous about that exact thing, right, Like, I

718
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 5: was like, there's no way because I didn't I didn't

719
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 5: think about it. When I'm booking the fight home, I'm

720
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,760
Speaker 5: just thinking, you know, I want to be back Monday,

721
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 5: to get back to the banks, the bank or the

722
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 5: whole bit. But nonetheless, I was like I to watch

723
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 5: this hockey game. I watched all the ones leading up

724
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 5: to this. I've this is a team I've I've really

725
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 5: been invested, i think in the last two years, especially

726
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 5: into what the wild they're doing into the NHL.

727
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,320
Speaker 2: And I love the game of hockey.

728
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 5: Like I'm a basketball guy that can say the game

729
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 5: of hockey, it's it's a special game, man, It's there's really.

730
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 2: Nothing like it that the fast paced nature.

731
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 5: And then you turn on this game USA Canada as physical.

732
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,359
Speaker 2: That hit from Tom Wilson on Larkin behind the net.

733
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 2: I don't know how he even popped back up all

734
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 2: gas no breakers. Game seven, Stanley Cup Final speed, unbelievable

735
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 2: the whole time.

736
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 5: I texted Taylor during the game, I said, have you

737
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 5: ever seen a game in person that's this fast and physical?

738
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 2: And She's like no, she wrote back new phone. Who did?

739
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's my burner phone. But nonetheless, just an unbelievable game, right,

740
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 5: this is a Canadian team. Who you heard what McKinnon

741
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 5: said after the game, like he thought he were the

742
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 5: better team.

743
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 2: Maybe they were.

744
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 5: Who cares we beat you so it doesn't matter, But

745
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 5: that just the nature of the game of you know,

746
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 5: switching out lines here and there for talent, for talent,

747
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 5: and the fact that Jack Hughes has the puck.

748
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 2: On his stick to and the thing.

749
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 5: And I don't think there's anybody more deserving than than

750
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 5: Jack Hughes. The injuries he's dealt with his shoulder over

751
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 5: the past couple of years, he you know, he's playing

752
00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 5: with two less fingers basically this whole NHL season. And

753
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 5: here he is, you know, with the puck on his

754
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 5: stick at twenty four years old, to ice it and

755
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 5: to send his country home as champions, and to hear

756
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 5: his postgame interview about how proud he was to have

757
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 5: that moment. And those are the kind of guys that

758
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 5: you love, right, the guys that want that moment, the

759
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 5: guys that want the puck on their stick. And sure

760
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 5: enough he puts in the back of.

761
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 2: The net, so raw, so authentic with Catherine dappan few

762
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,359
Speaker 2: to close here for Parker Fox ten fifty. Good morning. Now,

763
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 2: I would imagine you didn't watch it. I hope you

764
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 2: didn't watch it. Just want to talk it out for

765
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 2: a little bit since it's the next phase of your life. Yeah,

766
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 2: we're talking about interest rates, Just kidding, We're talking about

767
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 2: FD I see ooh gosh, we're talking a fiduciary topic

768
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,799
Speaker 2: coming at you now. Okay, the Timberwolves got killed at

769
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:48,279
Speaker 2: home by Philly yesterday. Terrible game to watch. I mean

770
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 2: I chose to watch a fair amount of it because

771
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 2: Finchy was on the show earlier today, so I kind

772
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 2: of felt to get some of the nuance or whatever.

773
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 2: I probably should watch them. It was just terrible. I mean, no,

774
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 2: Nas and Rudy twenty turnovers to their ten and we

775
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 2: got run out of the gym and home and we

776
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,839
Speaker 2: got twenty and change to play. So these boys better

777
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 2: snap into shape or things might become precarious.

778
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's weird when you're over there, right, pa Is, Like,

779
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 5: you know how much I love the Wolves, You know

780
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 5: how much I love the NBA.

781
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 2: But check out, Yeah, you check out a little bit.

782
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 2: I think you know that.

783
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 5: It's added to the fact that you're watching fiance at

784
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 5: the highest level, Like I don't think anybody can.

785
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 2: Big freaking deal. Yeah, exactly right.

786
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 5: But now that we're back in it, I kept up

787
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,919
Speaker 5: with you know, the scores, and we won three straight there,

788
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 5: you know, won the first one coming out of the

789
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,800
Speaker 5: All Star break, and then you run into a Philly

790
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 5: team that if you mess around, they have a guy

791
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 5: named Tyres Maxie who can put forty on your head.

792
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 2: Right, So where did VJ. Edgecombe go to college? Taylor? Yeah,

793
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 2: he's Yeah. I've seen his box scores all year. Yeah,

794
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 2: I can't say I've ever watched him play. I watched him,

795
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 2: you know, fair amount last night. And now, granted, Benci's

796
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,320
Speaker 2: team was a little on the lack of daisical side.

797
00:37:56,080 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 2: This this Maxi Edgecomb thing, ye, moving forward, I'm not

798
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 2: kidding you. I'm not and I'm not a hyperbolic guy.

799
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,359
Speaker 2: All right, hide the women and children here. They got

800
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 2: themselves a backcourt that is this Edgecomb is going to

801
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 2: be so good.

802
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 5: And he's not even known for his three point shooting.

803
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 5: He goes six to seven from three last night, and

804
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 5: he's known as more of an athlete, rim attacker, slasher

805
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 5: type of guy.

806
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 2: I really like him.

807
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 5: You know, people were a little questionable about his I

808
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 5: think he was a top four or five pick, maybe

809
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 5: even higher, and people are like, oh, I don't know

810
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 5: if he's that level, but he's a high ender. He's

811
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 5: the athleticism, his story, his background coming from nothing in

812
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 5: the Bahamas and just grinding his way up and here

813
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 5: he is now is a top five pick in the NBA.

814
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 5: I think I don't know what's going on in Philly.

815
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 5: I don't know if this is a championship contender team.

816
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 5: Who knows, but that that one two punch with Edgecomb

817
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 5: and MAXI that special.

818
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 2: All Right, I want to I want to finish with

819
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 2: this Friday night after the Wolves beat Dallas. All Right,

820
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 2: I'm watching Charles Barkley and and and Jalen Rose and

821
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 2: they're chopping it up. Barkley is basically like, what bugs

822
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 2: me most about Finci's team is they get leads of

823
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 2: ten or fifteen and Dallas those guys over there without

824
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:12,760
Speaker 2: Cooper flag that they just want reason to book tickets

825
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 2: to Turks and Keikos. They know they're going nowhere. They

826
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,359
Speaker 2: just announced Kyrie's not going to be back this year

827
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 2: yet the Timberwolves too frequently, according to Barkley, you get

828
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,839
Speaker 2: a ten to fifteen point lead and you don't put

829
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,959
Speaker 2: the boot on the throat man, and then you either

830
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 2: lose or it becomes a meat grinder. Now on the

831
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,879
Speaker 2: other side, Jalen Rose came back and he's like, Jock,

832
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 2: know what you're saying I've seen it too. This team

833
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 2: is so long, this team is so good in the

834
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 2: right spots. Edwards has developed himself a nice little baseline,

835
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 2: fallaway dagger kind of shot, so he's still developing. He said,

836
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,840
Speaker 2: whether you like it or not, these guys crave pressure.

837
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 2: I'll phrase it a different way. These guys crave drama. Okay,

838
00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 2: these guys crave people saying they can't do something. And

839
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 2: then jay La Rose came out and said they're going

840
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 2: to be in the Western Conference finals. Yeah, so you

841
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 2: better be ready for it. Joquin, Yeah, I think I

842
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,399
Speaker 2: think they're right. I think it's it's a mixture of both. Right,

843
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 2: this is a this is a Timberwols team that they

844
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 2: have the pieces. Right, you have a face of the

845
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 2: league type of guy, an ant you got in Jada McDaniels,

846
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 2: I think one of the most underrated players in the NBA,

847
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 2: elite level defender. You have the front court with with

848
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 2: you know, Julius and Rudy, and then you back up

849
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 2: with nas So you have the pieces.

850
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 5: I love what Dante's doing, but you have to find

851
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 5: ways in the next twenty games or whatever it may be,

852
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 5: to propel yourself right into the playoffs. You can't be

853
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 5: a team that that's peaking right now. You have to

854
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 5: be a team that's ascending this ladder. And here we

855
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 5: are entering the playoffs, and maybe we get the Lakers

856
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 5: or somebody in the first round and we beat them

857
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,479
Speaker 5: for zero because we're ready to play and we're ready

858
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 5: for that moment. And granted it's probably gonna be an

859
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 5: Oklahoma City Thunder team again, and you know exactly what's coming,

860
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 5: you know. And it can't be possessions off. It can't

861
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,280
Speaker 5: be plays off. Rudy Gobert needs to be a fifteen

862
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 5: rebound guy every single night. I think that's a non

863
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 5: to gociable. Jada needs to defend the best guy at

864
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 5: the top of his ability. Dante needs to make threes.

865
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 2: You know.

866
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,319
Speaker 5: It just needs to be a consistent approach. It can't

867
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 5: be like you said, Lasa David laxadaisical. Has to be

868
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:12,800
Speaker 5: consistency from all eight guys.

869
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,400
Speaker 2: Tell Taylor, I say, HI can't wait for her to

870
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,320
Speaker 2: come in studio. Sometimes you bet I'll be out for

871
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 2: a box in the box with the wild eventually here,

872
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 2: so maybe I'll catch her before she starts practicing. And

873
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,800
Speaker 2: noon Man I just honestly, for a lot of reasons.

874
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 2: I can't thank you enough from the bottom of my
