I just had a very bittersweet encounter. 11 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 2: Was out in the hallway as I was going to 12 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 2: use the gentleman's room. My good friend, engineer Jerry Wells, 13 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 2: you're a fan who does all of the Vikings, you. 14 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,919 Speaker 3: Know, he's at the Vikings games. 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: He had several steamer trunk I could I know there's 16 00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: equipment in there? I, well, you got a lot of 17 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 2: equipment there, and he goes, yep, coming back from the 18 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: from the stadium. So's yeah, it's bittersweet because instead of like, hey, 19 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 2: like cleaning. 20 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 3: Out your locker, Yeah, it's clean out your locker. 21 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: It's like, you know what, we were hoping it would 22 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 2: still be there because we were we had a home 23 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 2: game coming up here in the first round of the 24 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: play Tennabee certainly thought Tennebe thought we were gonna win 25 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: the big game this year. 26 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 3: He thought would be Kansas sitting the Vikings in the 27 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 3: Big Game. 28 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 2: After that, I thought it would be the Falcons and 29 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: the Vikings in the NFC Championship. 30 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 3: I didn't go as far as to predict a Super Bowl, right, 31 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 3: but I did. 32 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 2: And here we are and the season has come to 33 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 2: a conclusion, and I don't want to dive too deep 34 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: into the Vikings today other than to say, you know, 35 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 2: if there is a schinzm with Flores, that just adds 36 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: on top of all the other things, trying to settle 37 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 2: on a quarterback and getting a backup, and you know, 38 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 2: deciding on a number of players. The one example I'll 39 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: use would be Hawkinson. He's new twenty one million dollars. 40 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 2: There's no way they're going to pay him twenty one 41 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 2: million dollars. And then you got to go into you know, 42 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 2: what kind of a pay cup will you take? And 43 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: you got salary cap and this is where you really 44 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: you know, I know, it's always the results on the field, 45 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: but this is where you set everything up because you 46 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 2: got the draft coming up. In free agency, who do 47 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 2: you keep who? Who doesn't want to stay anymore? There's 48 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: a lot and some teams have more work than others, 49 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 2: and it seems this year to me, and maybe maybe 50 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 2: you disagree, there's more work for the Vikings. 51 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 3: Other was last year. 52 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 2: Last year, you know, we thought interial offensive line here 53 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 2: or the defense. We signed four guys, we liked them, 54 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 2: and then we were going forward with the quarterback. We 55 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 2: come to find out now that they really thought Danny 56 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: Dimes was going to stay and he left and that 57 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: kind of threw him for a loop as far as 58 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 2: the backup, that left him scrambling to find somebody. But 59 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 2: it just seems to me like there's more to do 60 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 2: this year to get the team back on track than 61 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 2: there was going into last year. 62 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 4: Well, the good news about not extending your season into 63 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 4: the postseason is you got a head start on all 64 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 4: that stuff. So right, they started meeting Monday. When I 65 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 4: say they, I mean ownership remained in town. As I 66 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 4: mentioned yesterday, Ziggy and Mark were here and obviously that 67 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 4: the brain trust, you know, I'm not they're not doing 68 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 4: the deep die necessarily already here crossing this off and 69 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 4: and putting our draft board together has nothing to do 70 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 4: with that. But you know, there there are decisions to 71 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 4: be made, and I think first and foremost probably the 72 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 4: most important one. And we'll hear tomorrow when Koc and 73 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 4: Quasi speak to the media. I don't know, I Miss 74 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 4: Tenna has an idea. I don't know what's going to 75 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 4: hurt yet. Yeah, I don't either. I know they're doing 76 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 4: it tomorrow, So, you know, I think some of the 77 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 4: questions you know this just in there. 78 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 3: They're they're both very good at. 79 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 4: Deflecting the kind of answers that you'd want to some 80 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 4: of the questions that you would be asking. And I'm 81 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 4: sure a lot of it will be about Flora's you know, 82 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: I personally, from my sources, think say that Flores will 83 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 4: only leave if it's a head coaching job. I don't 84 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 4: think he's going to take a while. I don't think 85 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 4: he's going to go to Dallas it's a defensive coordinator 86 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 4: unless they offer, you know, Jerry Jones opens his bank 87 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 4: account to the point of paying him more than as much. 88 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: As Dak Prescott's making. 89 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 4: Otherwise, I don't see him leaving for another defensive coordinator's job, 90 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 4: and we all know that there's what seven eight jobs 91 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 4: open right now, and since John Harbaugh got fired yesterday, 92 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 4: apparently he's at the top of everyone's list. I saw 93 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 4: a shot at Kevin Stefanski has his way to New 94 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 4: Joysey to go have dinner with the Giants last night, 95 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 4: and you know, this is what goes on all the time, 96 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 4: and you know, you know the teams that are out there. 97 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 4: But I think the Vikings, I think first and foremost 98 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 4: they want to know what's going on with with Flores. 99 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 4: I think more than the player think can wait a 100 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 4: little bit. It's only in January and they got time 101 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 4: at Flora's doesn't as much. So I think they want 102 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 4: to get that settled. And I think in a perfect 103 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 4: world they'd love to come out tomorrow and say, hey, 104 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 4: he's locked up. We got him locked up for next 105 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 4: next how many years, three years or whatever with another contract. 106 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 4: That would be ideal. But you know, well up to 107 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 4: wait and see if that happens. Otherwise, again, like I said, 108 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 4: I don't otherwise it'll drag on for a little while. 109 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 4: I mean, teams are going to be in a hurry, 110 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 4: and especially with the Harbaugh situation, and that really does. 111 00:04:58,839 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 3: Mix everything up. 112 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 4: I think the blender for all the teams, not just 113 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 4: the teams that are looking for a head coach, but 114 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 4: they might be going, wait a minute, I like John 115 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 4: Harbaugh better than our current headcarch. Yeah, right, I might 116 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 4: go in a different direction here. You know, eighteen years in 117 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 4: the league. His resume kind of speaks for itself. He's 118 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 4: you know, he's had you know, Super Bowl whatever. You know, 119 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 4: he's had a lot of failures, but that's welcome to 120 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 4: the NFL. Most coaches do, even the great Andy Reid's 121 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 4: face that. So yeah, I think that's where we're at. 122 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 4: But hopefully we'll get a little more clarity on the 123 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,559 Speaker 4: Florist situation tomorrow. As far as the players stuff goes, 124 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't like whatever Quasi's gonna say and 125 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 4: koc is going to say about the kind of quarterback 126 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 4: they're going to go after in a free agency or 127 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 4: via trade. You know, I don't know if we're going 128 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 4: to get a lot of clarity on that. I think 129 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 4: there'll be a lot of wordsmanship that we're used to 130 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 4: kind of hearing. We want to have a you know, 131 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 4: is a situation where they're gonna come out and say 132 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 4: we're gonna have a competition for the quarterback position next year. 133 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 4: Number one, I don't think we'll hear that. No, I 134 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 4: don't think it'll be uh JJ's off season that he 135 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 4: didn't have. Basically, you know when he had the first 136 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 4: year after he got drafted, which I mentioned you yesterday, 137 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 4: I think dearly cost him and I think that's where 138 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 4: the Vikings management made their error. They assumed he was 139 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 4: going to be able to pick up the slack and go, 140 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 4: and he just was so far behind the curve that 141 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 4: we saw what happened this year. No, next year is 142 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 4: a whole different story. I was saying, it's a make 143 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 4: or break, but pretty close to it. 144 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: Back to the horball thing, I'll ask both of you 145 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 2: guys for something, and it's maybe I'm making this up 146 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 2: and I've confused different situations. 147 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 3: But wasn't there a head coach. 148 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 2: I don't know if it was in basketball, the NBA 149 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 2: or the NFL where they were let go and they 150 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 2: took a year off. 151 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they just stepped away and said, you know, 152 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 3: I'm taking a year off. 153 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 2: Somebody did that, a big name and I just can't 154 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 2: remember who it is. Maybe somebody else can jog our memories, 155 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 2: And I'm wondering if Harrball would be a guy that 156 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: would do that. You know, he might want to get 157 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: back to it right away. I don't know, but you 158 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 2: never know if he's a guy that goes, you know, maybe, oh, 159 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 2: Sean Payton, remember he went to the booth for a while, 160 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: then he came back. 161 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, I like Bill Belichick to the year off. That 162 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 3: might be the case, but it wasn't. It wasn't that 163 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 3: the cake. 164 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: Didn't Sean Payton take a year off and he went 165 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 2: the booth for a while and then I don't know 166 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 2: if he was ever Yeah, I don't know if he 167 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 2: was just doing that for a year for he just 168 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: because when he was when when when he was on 169 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: the Panels show for I think it was CBS or 170 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 2: maybe it was Fons. Remember he wasn't. 171 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 3: Very already good at it. 172 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't seem to be very good at it. Maybe, 173 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: you know, again just starting. Maybe they'd given him more time. 174 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 2: But I wonder if Harball was a guy I would 175 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 2: think he wants to come, but maybe he goes. You know, 176 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 2: I'll just let sit for a while and wait. 177 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 4: Well he has he'd have that opportunity if he wants 178 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 4: the pick of the litter if he doesn't like what 179 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 4: the jobs are that are out there. But again their speculation, 180 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 4: uh even that, I mean, how how ironic would it be. 181 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 4: Let's just say, you know what, I want to stick 182 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 4: at to Baltimore. I'm going to go become the head 183 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 4: coach of the Cleveland Browns. You know what I mean, 184 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 4: I got an opportunity. I think Tomlins. I don't think 185 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 4: Tom's going anywhere. I mean, he's getting ready for another 186 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 4: playoff game, and he seems to be energized by year 187 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 4: in year out. You know, his season. You know what, 188 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 4: the Steelers do better than any teams. They keep head coaches. 189 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 4: I don't see Harvard doing that. I understand that that 190 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 4: they could be the thinking, but I think there's so 191 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 4: many jobs available and he could, you know, with his agent, 192 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 4: kind of the pick of the litter. That's at least 193 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 4: for the teams that are out there, and like I said, 194 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 4: it could be another team that going. You know what, 195 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 4: I like this guy better than our guy, but he 196 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 4: could try to stay in the division. I mean, Cleveland's 197 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 4: an opportunity. I mean, I you know, I don't there's 198 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 4: always been a mess, but you know he may be going, 199 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 4: I want the challenge. I think I can get this 200 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 4: thing righted that I can, I can make it work. 201 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 3: But who knows. 202 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 2: Someone said, didn't Zim take a year off? Zim did 203 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,599 Speaker 2: after he was fired from here. He sat out for 204 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 2: a year and then he went back to defensive coach. Yeah, 205 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 2: I mean yeah, not a head coaches. 206 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 3: He took time. There are guys who have done that. 207 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 3: You're getting paid, You're still making head coach money. 208 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, But I mean sometimes guys just want to 209 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 2: take a step away for whatever reason. 210 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 3: Just get a grind. I mean what it is. I mean, 211 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,839 Speaker 3: you know, especially the whole compensated right, But it's fine. 212 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: And as we know, I mean, these guys sleep in 213 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 3: the office and is there's just there. And I guess 214 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 3: that's what you gotta do to stay ahead of the game. 215 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 3: Is you got to eat briefly. 216 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: Unless he's a Signette and Nettie of Indiana, he says, 217 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 4: I got I get these guys out of here right away. 218 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 4: You know, I have, we got, we have, He said. 219 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 4: He's got a pretty strong philosophy about that with his 220 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 4: coaches work. 221 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: Speaking at college football, We'll get the Golfer basketball team 222 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: was really before we get to that, I'm the college 223 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 2: football scene. 224 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 3: I'm an Old Miss guy now, all right, Well, well 225 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 3: because their coach, well you know, Roll Smith. 226 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 2: Old Miss hasn't had any I don't think they've ever 227 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 2: won a national championship. But if they did, it was 228 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 2: a long long time ago that I don't remember. And 229 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 2: but I I saw a story where thing with Kiff, 230 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 2: with these college coaches have it made like every time 231 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 2: they went in postseason, he gets another half million dollar bonus. 232 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 3: He still gets the bonus even though. 233 00:09:54,920 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 2: He's not It's truly so he's making He's making as 234 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: if he doesn't have enough money. 235 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 3: It's it's a great game. 236 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 2: Look, it's great negotiating on him and his agent's part, 237 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 2: but he's making money. Also, I read that he wanted 238 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 2: to be a part. You wanted at least make an 239 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 2: appearance like in the booth or on the panel. Showed 240 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: the almost game and all the players. 241 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 3: School said, we don't want anything to do with you. 242 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 2: They didn't want him to so that he got shot 243 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 2: down on that, so that none of the TV whoever, whoever, 244 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 2: was doing I don't remember. I watched the game down 245 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 2: when I was in Paula Springs. But oh, baby, brother 246 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 2: Peter's just devastated.

They have, like, 250 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 2: I think a couple of guys that they think are 251 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: going to go on the top in the first round 252 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 2: of the drafts. The Bain guy who won the ACC 253 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 2: Defensive Player of the Year. I don't know if he's 254 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: like that every game. He must be because he won 255 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 2: the conference player the Year, but that guy's all over 256 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: the place. 257 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 3: He would look good and on any NFL, yeah he would, 258 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 3: he will be.

Somebody else had to take a 269 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 3: year off. Somebody else said. 270 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy took a year off between the Pack and 271 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 2: the Cowboys. He toured teams for a year learning. Remember 272 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 2: that he was learning all the different games. They did 273 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 2: a lot of good.

It's your there's well. 342 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 2: Programs sell hope, and they're selling hope. 343 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 4: And they're doing it with basically six players. They lost 344 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 4: two of their starters before the season started, so they're 345 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 4: they're kind of going with the iron five and you know, 346 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 4: plus one or maybe plus two. 347 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 3: I think there's like seven, there are all seven guys 348 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 3: kind of played. 349 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 4: But I watched pretty much the entire game last night, 350 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 4: and there was a lot of ups and downs. And 351 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 4: but I said this even before a game. I think 352 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 4: the Golphers may have lost. I thought, when I'm watching 353 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 4: Nico Medved's team play, there's a flow to their offense 354 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 4: that we hadn't seen for quite a while. And they 355 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 4: they look like they know what there's a plan and 356 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 4: they're they're executing it. And they don't really have any 357 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 4: big superstars. They got a lot of really good players 358 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 4: and last night, you know, kind of like I think 359 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 4: of the Iowa foot basketball team like the football team. 360 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 4: They don't make a lot of mistakes. They don't really 361 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 4: they don't really have a you know, a superstar, but 362 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: they just kind of, you know, make it really difficult 363 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 4: to beat them. And Iowa was the best in the 364 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 4: Big ten at generating turnovers. The Golphers only had ten 365 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 4: last night, which is really saying something. And you know, 366 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 4: the Golphers had the mister free throws at the end, 367 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 4: which made it even I don't know if you saw 368 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 4: at the end of the game dramatic because Iowa had 369 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 4: a chance answer with a three point shot to tie 370 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 4: it uh and send it to. 371 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 3: Ah took three shots and miss. Oh my god. 372 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm thinking to myself, I'm kind of yelling, 373 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 4: follow the guy, you know. But they never got to 374 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 4: the point because if we were a fall him, then 375 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 4: probably it was outside the ark and probably had three shots, 376 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 4: but they were they were kind of collapsing inside. So 377 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 4: these guys, they had some pretty good looks to potentially 378 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 4: tie the game, and they're they're big star. 379 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 3: Starts. 380 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 4: I think his name is. He had twenty one, but 381 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 4: two for ten from uh three is pretty unusual for him, 382 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 4: and Uh, he didn't have a good game. And and 383 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 4: then and the Gopher fans were into it, and Williams 384 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 4: Rana kind of came alive. So, uh, you know, they 385 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 4: got u usc coming in here on Friday night and 386 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 4: Eric Musselman is the head coach, I believe. 387 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 3: Chip Chip wrote. 388 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 2: The game for fish Wrap Factory West Side last night 389 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 2: and he writes med Red's rotation has dwindled. The seven players, 390 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 2: all five starters, played thirty minutes. They were three of 391 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 2: them log the full forty into victory at Northwestern on Saturday. 392 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: They don't complain or mote or accept the convenient excuse. 393 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 2: They just dig deep and keep battling. Tyson said, if 394 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 2: we could play forty minutes, we'd love to. 395 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 3: And they don't have an alternative right now. And that's 396 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 3: what the coach that we. 397 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 2: Don't have any alternatives, and it's that is the one 398 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 2: thing about youthful exuberance. Yep, it's a little bit more 399 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 2: difficult to pull that off in the NBA. But when 400 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 2: you're talking about these coets, and they have certainly bought 401 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 2: into what they're doing, Chip Wallso brings up you're talking 402 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 2: about the movement to the golf of the softball, the 403 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 2: movement of the basketball. He writes here about a stat 404 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 2: in that game about assists on baskets. 405 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 3: It says. 406 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 2: Fans of basketball should love this team. They compete incredibly 407 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 2: hard and play the right way. The Gophers lead the 408 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 2: nation in assist percentage seventy five point nine, meaning no 409 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 2: team makes a higher percentage of shots off assists. They 410 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 2: had fifteen assists on their twenty two made baskets against 411 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: the Hawkeyes. Statistics can be misleading sometimes, but this one 412 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 2: isn't It supports the eye test. The golfers pass and 413 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 2: cut and move without the ball. They look for open 414 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 2: teammates and make the extra pass. Everyone touches the ball 415 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: and is involved in making the motion offense function effectively. 416 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 3: And I think they used to call that the Princeton 417 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 3: offense and the. 418 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, the motion offense that Princeton did for years and 419 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 4: years and years. We would see them play in the 420 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 4: NCAA tournament and the score would be fifty to forty 421 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 4: five or something, and they had it down to a science. 422 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 4: But I think more than anything, no matter what happens 423 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 4: this season with Nico Medved and I don't know what 424 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 4: kind of recruiting, we go through this all the time, 425 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 4: of course, with Nil and everything that's going on, But 426 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 4: in basketball, you don't so like football. You need maybe 427 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 4: five or six guys to really help turn a program around, 428 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 4: if not more basketball, you get one or two that 429 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 4: can help really turn a team around in a hurry. 430 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 4: And I would think that this pipeline and the way 431 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 4: that things are going right now with Minnesota, and he 432 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 4: be in a pretty good position to for locked down 433 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 4: some pretty good players to come here because of his 434 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 4: style of play and the fact that all those guys 435 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 4: on the team right now. And I think most we 436 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,479 Speaker 4: are coming back and go. You know you're gonna get 437 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 4: your playing time forty minutes a night. We're not sitting 438 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 4: on the bench. Show do you like to play? The 439 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 4: water's warm? Come on, come on to Minnesota. So I 440 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,239 Speaker 4: mean they're again they're not gonna maybe they will make 441 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 4: the tournament tournament, But even if they don't, I'm saying 442 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 4: this is that they've turned the page. They've made it 443 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 4: worth going to the Barn again for men's basketball, and I. 444 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 3: Think that's we'll see if it continues. Well. Of course, 445 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 3: of course, you know, you know, you. 446 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 2: Know, this youthful exuberance in playing seven they get, but 447 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 2: when you get deep into the Big Ten schedule, as 448 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 2: physical as it is, and you're playing twice a week. 449 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 2: You're doing the Tuesday Saturday or Thursday Sunday and you're 450 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 2: playing you know how many how many Big Ten teams 451 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 2: are ranked in the top twenty five. 452 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 3: I bet there's got to be, you know some Michigan's one. 453 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 3: I think you got there, you know. But yeah, I'm 454 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 3: not even talking about yeah, you have to watch them. 455 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 2: I'm just talking about you're playing quality clubs that are 456 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 2: ranked and they're physical. That's a physical conference and you 457 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 2: can get worn down in a real hurry. But yeah, 458 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 2: right now, the signs are good. It's it's awful nice 459 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 2: for a first year head coach to do the things 460 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 2: he's doing. 461 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 4: And it's where that it's they got a three game 462 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 4: homestand they got as I mentioned, USC here on Friday night, 463 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 4: Eric Musselman's team and they had just lost to Michigan 464 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,479 Speaker 4: and Michigan State. And so we'll see how they react 465 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 4: to the game. It's set a seven thirty game on 466 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 4: Friday night. So good for the Gophers and Nico Medvet. 467 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 4: It was it was a fun game to watch watching 468 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 4: the Wolves a little bit, but they were blowing out. 469 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:31,239 Speaker 3: They played last night. 470 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 4: If they played Miami, Miami, yeah, that was their second meeting, and. 471 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 2: All they're doing is they're starting to gel in their 472 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 2: stacking lens and you doubted this time. 473 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's yeah, right, Okay, Rudy Gobert is I mean, 474 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 4: with all Rudy Gobert is having a career year right 475 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 4: now for the things he's doing for that basketball team. 476 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 4: And that's his rebounding. Obviously, he can he can score 477 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 4: when he can get the up twenty two feet away, 478 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 4: but his defense and rebounding has been elite in the 479 00:20:59,240 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 4: league right now. 480 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 3: U A, speaking of the uh fluck and in the 481 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 3: program have been busy. 482 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 2: They've been getting guys in the portal. I saw it, 483 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 2: and they're getting guys. I don't know how good they are, 484 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 2: but they are getting players from Michigan State. They're getting 485 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 2: teams from some some big name programs, helmet schools. And 486 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 2: I don't know what the read if it's if it's all, 487 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 2: if the money's too good, if they get more playing time, 488 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 2: if they're unhappy where they are. But he also looks 489 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 2: are going to lose Cooit Parritch. I think he's probably. 490 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 3: Gone his career. 491 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 2: His season this year wasn't as good as his first season, 492 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 2: but you know, that's the thing. You get some guys 493 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 2: in the portal, but you lose some too, and that's 494 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 2: that's that's a pretty big well. 495 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 4: I think that one, you know, on the surface, hurt 496 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 4: because I was talking to guards he it was yesterday 497 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 4: and I just I was walking in to do the 498 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 4: show with you. I said, hey, I haven't had a 499 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 4: chance to talk to you about kit Parrot goes Grayson. 500 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 4: I think his oldest was just devastated. I mean it's 501 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 4: like when you have a kid that age and he's 502 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 4: got the jersey at home and you hear that he goes, well, 503 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 4: cooy's going to the portal, right, and you know these 504 00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 4: kids that the jersey too, exactly what they're talking about. No, 505 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 4: but and that that one hurts because he's the Minnesota 506 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 4: kid who stayed here and he had a great first year. 507 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 4: Last year not so good, but you know still, you know, 508 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 4: a high energy kind of guy that you you know, 509 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 4: you love to see stay with the program. 510 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 2: Now, what happens when you're that when you're that good. 511 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,719 Speaker 2: He was like a second team All American last year 512 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 2: whatever he was. You get to be that good and 513 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 2: no money is starting to be offered to you, and 514 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 2: then a guy like that. I'm assuming this is thinking 515 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 2: about playing on Sundays, and so when you're thinking that, 516 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 2: you just think a college greern't. 517 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 3: How much longer it's going to be. 518 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: And i'd like to I'm watching the National Championship tournament 519 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: and I'd like to be a part of that. And 520 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 2: let's let's face it, I don't think it's happening with 521 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 2: the Golphers anytime soon. So it's hard to blame kids. 522 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 2: I know fans get annoyed and say, oh, turn your 523 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 2: back on the program. 524 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 3: Nahah But you know, every kid's in it for himself. 525 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 2: And if you if you're a really good player, you 526 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 2: want to play on Sundays in euor going. 527 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 3: But you also want to. 528 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 2: Take advantage of what college days you have left and 529 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 2: you want to play. 530 00:22:58,480 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 3: You want to play in the Rose Bay. You want 531 00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 3: to be in the semifinals. 532 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 4: It ain't happened, as sure, But at the same time, 533 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 4: you're playing a position where Minnesota players have gone to 534 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 4: the NFL. Yeah, that's true, quite a few of them, 535 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 4: and in that secondary but we'll see. Uh, he's got 536 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 4: you know, he's got opportunities to weigh right now. 537 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, my guess is he's gone, but oh yeah, I 538 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 3: would think so, Paus come back. 539 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 2: One more segment to go here on the Common Man 540 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 2: Program with Common, Tannebe and Mark Rose. 541 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 3: And here in the fan. 542 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: It's a Wild Wednesday here on KFAAN and we're taking 543 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: your talkbacks for tickets all day long.

There's somebody wrote me, texted me, 556 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 2: maybe I read it somewhere in the story. To watch 557 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: games last week, if you wanted to watch every game, 558 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 2: you had to have like eight different streaming services because 559 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 2: you had, you know, a game on Disney, and the 560 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 2: game on on Prime and a game on CBS, a 561 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 2: game on Fox and a Netflix blah blahlah blah blah. 562 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 2: But the the the pairings are set, we know who 563 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 2: the buys are. They go to uh Sam Donald and 564 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 2: the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos and the bow Knicks. 565 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 3: Kid who we had a lot of teams had an 566 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 3: opportunity to draft them. 567 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 2: He went went twelfth, right, it was twelfth to the 568 00:24:55,600 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 2: Denver Broncos. As you look at the field, who do 569 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 2: you think will represent the AFC and NFC and and 570 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 2: beyond that? Is there another team that you go might 571 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 2: be kind of like not necessarily a wild card team, 572 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 2: but might be a wild you know, that might surprise people, 573 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 2: might be able to sneak in. 574 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 4: Well, the NFC is is really to me difficult to handicap. 575 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 4: I think Seattle because and they haven't played as well 576 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 4: at home overall, but I do think their defense is 577 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 4: going to be really tough to uh to top at home. 578 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 4: I but I deep down I think the one team 579 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 4: that that could will beat could beat them and will 580 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 4: beat them because I think he's he's the MVP of 581 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 4: the league. 582 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 3: In my mind is Matthew Stafford. 583 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 4: I think the Rams and I think that their head 584 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 4: coach is elite. Using pj's favorite word, uh so, I 585 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 4: guess push comes to shove. I think the Rams will 586 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 4: get to the I. 587 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 3: Think Tennebe believes that too temper. Did you say that 588 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 3: or my putting my game out? Did you pick that? 589 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 3: Do you think the Rams will get to the big game? Oh? 590 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: Yes, when I look at it, I still think historically 591 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: odd say, you need to have a good quarterback play right, 592 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of questionable quarterback play. I think 593 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,959 Speaker 1: that we haven't seen done it on the stage, and 594 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: you also probably need a good defense. And to me, 595 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: the Rams have the best combination I think of both 596 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: with quarterback and a defense that can rush the passer. 597 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 3: So I'm taking the Rams to win it. I'm going 598 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 3: with Seattle. I'm gonna take the front runner. 599 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 2: And I'd like to see I think that a lot 600 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 2: of Viking fans in this town want Sam Donald to fail. 601 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 3: And I don't know why either. I don't know. I 602 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 3: can sense it, I can hear it, I can feel it. 603 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 2: I see it because I think it's because we had them, 604 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 2: let them go and we want to make it the 605 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 2: right decision. Don't if you're a fan, you don't want 606 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 2: to say we blew it. We decided to go with 607 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 2: mccarth and we could have kept Sam Donald. So you say, well, 608 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: we wouldn't have the money to spend this. We'll look 609 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: what Sam Donald did against Detroit last year or this and. 610 00:26:58,680 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 3: That, so they want him. 611 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 2: So that's part of But also it's what Tennabee said, 612 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 2: you have to have good quarterback playing really good defense. 613 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,479 Speaker 2: I think Seattle's defense and statistically I think they are 614 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 2: the best defense in the league. At least they've been 615 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 2: playing very well as of late. I like their defense, 616 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 2: and I think Sam Donald he's still going to be reckless. 617 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 3: He's still He did it again in the game against 618 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 3: the forty nine ers. No, what was their last game? 619 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 3: Was it game again? Was it? 620 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,199 Speaker 2: Who did they just play? I watched the game? Was 621 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 2: it forty nine ERDs? It was forty nine ers, right? 622 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 2: Yeahs two weeks ago? 623 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: Right? 624 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, So it was a forty nine ers, right. 625 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 2: He made a throw that was not good and San 626 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 2: Francisco had a chance to make it a turnover and 627 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 2: they weren't able to do it, and that could have 628 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 2: changed the complexion of the game, those things are going 629 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 2: to happen. 630 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 3: I've said this thirteen fourteen times. 631 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 2: Pat Mahomes and Josh Allen are not available, so you 632 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 2: have to take whatever is left right, And I like 633 00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 2: Darnald and I think Donald has with being able to 634 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 2: replicate what he did like and again, he's got a 635 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 2: really good running game. It's not all Sam Darnold, it's 636 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 2: not at all. He's not out there winning games on 637 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,640 Speaker 2: his arm, but he doesn't have to. And I think 638 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 2: he's got more confidence. I think Seattle is going to 639 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 2: be and if I was going to pick a pick 640 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 2: a team, that would be that, I guess. 641 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 3: And it's not even really, it's. 642 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 2: Not even really any team that is in postseason play 643 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 2: you can't dismiss. So so I don't really look at 644 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 2: the Rams as being an underdog. Both of you guys 645 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 2: like him to get to the big game. And I 646 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 2: would say that for the reasons you stated Stafford is 647 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 2: he's probably he and Rodgers have seen more than any 648 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 2: other quarterbacks that are playing that are currently still playing 649 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 2: in the playoffs right now. And so yeah, I would 650 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 2: say me, if the Rams after that. 651 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 4: Well, my sleeper team, I'm not saying prohibitive favorite. It's 652 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 4: so wide open you we can make an argument for 653 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:49,479 Speaker 4: pretty much any of the teams. 654 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 3: I don't. 655 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 4: I don't see Pittsburgh being able to stop Houston. I 656 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 4: think Aaron Rodgers is going to be in for a 657 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 4: long night with that pass rush. 658 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 3: Haven't lost the money in that game since nineteen ninety one. 659 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 4: And what would common man be saying about that? How 660 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 4: many of those players on this year's team? 661 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 2: No, okay, zero, Well Rogers could have. He's been playing long, 662 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 2: that's true. 663 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 4: I just think their defense is going to absolutely overwhelm Pittsburgh. 664 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 4: I don't think Pittsburgh has got enough offense to offset 665 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 4: what Houston's defense is going to do. And I think 666 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 4: their defense is better than their offensive times. That would 667 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 4: be my sleeper team. But if you I mean to 668 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 4: try to get to the big Game, it's so wide open, 669 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 4: I think, man, you know, it's so easy to go. 670 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 4: I'll go with the Denver Broncos. I just don't think 671 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 4: they're their offense is good enough to scare anybody in 672 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 4: the big Game. So, you know, New England is an 673 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,479 Speaker 4: interesting team to look at. They are they are they 674 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 4: ready for the big time? You know, only They've won 675 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 4: fourteen games and only three of them came against playoff 676 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 4: teams Panthers, Bills, and Ravens. They didn't put their rosters 677 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 4: to I understand that, but they didn't schedule together play 678 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 4: they come to have their hands full of the Chargers, honestly, 679 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 4: uh in that game. So I'll go with I'll just 680 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 4: stick with Houston because I think they're there. You need 681 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 4: to have obviously a good quarterback play, you got to 682 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 4: have a lights out defense. 683 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: It's rightly because, yeah, I've been with I've been on 684 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 2: I've been on the Houston bandwagon ever since that. Yeah, 685 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 2: because their defense is you know, maybe not statistically, I'm 686 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 2: just going by eye test and you know, look, I'm 687 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 2: not I'm not gonna claim and watch a lot of 688 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 2: Houston Texas football, but I I like to stay up 689 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 2: to date on the NFL by reading all of the 690 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 2: different pieces from around the league. And it seems to 691 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 2: me that Houston and Seattle have the two defenses that 692 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: I that that that to me, they seem to be 693 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 2: the two best defenses. 694 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 4: And I know what, I know Tenna is going to 695 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 4: say that sentimentally, and I think this is this is 696 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 4: the one year if Buffalo, and they got a tough 697 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 4: game at Jacksonville. They're they're fer point and a half favorites, 698 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 4: they've won and Jacksonville's won nine of their last ten. 699 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 4: I mean, it's like Buffalo's passing game is not what 700 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 4: it was. And talk about a good defense. The Jaguars 701 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 4: have a great rush defense to slow them down. And 702 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 4: I don't know, I mean it's like, can Jacksonville come 703 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 4: out of the weeds basically, and and and and do 704 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 4: what they have to do to win that game. I 705 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 4: think sentimentally, I think a lot of folks with with 706 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 4: Mahomes out of the picture this year, going god, this 707 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 4: has got to be Buffalo's year to go on the 708 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 4: cash in with Josh Allen and uh, you know James 709 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 4: Cook and you know that would be a bet. And 710 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 4: I'm rooting for the Bears. I'm not gonna lie Saturday 711 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 4: night against the Pack. You know it's not an anti 712 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 4: Green Bay thing, Say no, it's a pro Chicago thing 713 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 4: because I have you know, we've got friends who work 714 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 4: for the organization, and I like, you know, that's kind of, 715 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 4: as I said, a second home and friend. No, I 716 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 4: don't want to am no mentioned Kevin that's true, but 717 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 4: it's more about the city. And I know there's an 718 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 4: anti Bear sentiment I heard. I heard the cinnecon on 719 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 4: this morning when I was driving around, you know, and 720 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 4: how people just start.

And you're 759 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 2: not gonna do it every time, but it does leave 760 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 2: you wondering if like, maybe you know, the old uh 761 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 2: you know, the glass slipper doesn't fit anymore, and maybe 762 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 2: that maybe that coach turned into a pumpkin, not Ben Johnson, 763 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 2: but the coach they're riding in on, because that's that 764 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 2: was I mean, they end up with Philly Louising and 765 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 2: didn't hurt him for the seed, and you know, there's 766 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 2: not a lot of difference between second and third other 767 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 2: than if number one gets bounced, you've got home advantage 768 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 2: throughout the playoffs as long as you keep winning. But 769 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 2: that was an opportunity to go in there and just 770 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 2: look at the Lion's team and just go, let's let's 771 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 2: pound these guys there if we if if we smack them, 772 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 2: if we punch them in the o's right away, they're 773 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 2: probably just gonna roll over. And they didn't, and the 774 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,839 Speaker 2: Lions stole and the Bears still let a chance to win, 775 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,240 Speaker 2: is we know, but they didn't. Speaking of the Eagles, 776 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 2: are we are we just just missing them? 777 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:35,439 Speaker 3: Yeah? 778 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 2: Are we? 779 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 3: Kind of? Are they shocking the Super Bowl chain? Are 780 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 3: they under under the radar? Team? 781 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 4: They rested their players last week, so they're hosting kind 782 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,360 Speaker 4: of a beating up forty nine ers team that that 783 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 4: you know, they haven't their defense is not very good. 784 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 3: And I just think that. 785 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 4: The Eagles are going to win that game at home 786 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 4: and I'm not thinking, I don't think it's gonna be 787 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 4: all that close, but man, it's there's still a hard out, 788 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 4: you know what I mean? They're they're tough, they're they're 789 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 4: battle tested, and they go into Seattle. They're going to 790 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 4: play the rant whatever after the next after this game. 791 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,280 Speaker 4: But I think that they're going to be uh ready 792 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 4: for uh San Francisco and take care of business. They 793 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 4: arrested everybody of note pretty much last week. 794 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 3: So who. 795 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, they decided that they didn't care about the seed 796 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 4: as much as just giving their players a week off, 797 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 4: and that's you know, Siriani makes that decision, and I 798 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 4: can't argue with it. 799 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 3: Oh, I wouldn't argue with that. I mean, I know 800 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 3: it's a tough call, but you know, and getting that. 801 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 2: Getting that second seed is I mean, it's it's it 802 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,839 Speaker 2: can mean a lot, but you got to win them all. 803 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 2: And if if if it means having players healthier, because 804 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 2: it's if the players aren't as healthy and they can't 805 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 2: play as they're they maybe someone won't even play. 806 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,320 Speaker 3: Without that week off. You're probably tough. You're probably not 807 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 3: going to get to the second round, correct. 808 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 4: I just think that's I mean, Philip, if he's standing 809 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 4: at a three and a half point favorites and we 810 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 4: do a sprint swinging tomorrow, by the way, are we 811 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 4: doing that a playoff edition? 812 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 3: Are we aware of that?

Yeah, we didn't have the 816 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 3: picture the last week. But yeah, that's all right, you. 817 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 2: Know, and I know why because everybody didn't want me 818 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 2: to win, and I think I was right there. 819 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 3: You're right there.

I would have got something. 826 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 4: Something, So yeah, I mean it's a it's a you 827 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 4: know how you feel, abob, it's me But you're right 828 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,919 Speaker 4: getting back to and the like. The Packers Bears game 829 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 4: is on Prime on Saturday night, and a lot of 830 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 4: people haven't necessarily signed up for it. 831 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 3: Now. 832 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 4: The only way you can watch it in the local 833 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 4: market is if you're in Chicago or Green Bay, because 834 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 4: then the NFL allows those the teams that are playing 835 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 4: to have it on over brought cast regular broadcast TV 836 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 4: for that for that game. Otherwise, you know, that's here 837 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 4: we are. I mean, it's that's the you mentioned, that's 838 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 4: the world we live in. You got to, as they say, 839 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 4: they used to have kind of a joke, check your 840 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 4: local listings. Yeah, man, you really have to check your listening. 841 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 4: And then pretty much after this week, it kind of 842 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 4: it rotates. You know, CBS, NBC, ABC and the ESPN. 843 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, the usual suspects that have all 844 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 4: the NFL rights. 845 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 3: And I was talking about the Gophers and you're being 846 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 3: busy in the portal. 847 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 2: Here's another one just today, Gophers land former California defensive 848 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 2: end TJ. 849 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 3: Bush junior out of the transfer portal. I have no 850 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 3: idea if he's any good or not. You know what 851 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 3: he knows. You scroll down. 852 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 2: From a couple of days ago, Gopher's received transfer commitments 853 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 2: from ex Michigan State cornerbacks Aiden and Alisha Elisha Elisia. 854 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 2: It's brothers, apparently, well last West, so a couple of 855 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 2: brothers are coming here. 856 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 3: Then there's another one that says, hold on, we're not 857 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 3: done yet. 858 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 2: Gopher football team ads receiver Perry Thompson defensive tackle of 859 00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 2: Akwon Crowder in the portal, and there's if I scrolled 860 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 2: on further probably find even more so. They're pumping in 861 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 2: a lot of new money Gophers getting Tennessee tackle Bennett 862 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:10,320 Speaker 2: Warren in the transfer probole. 863 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 3: So it's it. 864 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 2: It doesn't seem to end their players keep signing. Whether 865 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,919 Speaker 2: the where these players are as far as talent wise, 866 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 2: I don't know a lot of them are coming. 867 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 3: From some big name schools. 868 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 4: So Dickey Town Sports, whatever it is that that helps 869 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 4: make this happen. I mean, there's been a lot of 870 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 4: conversation about Mark Cuban, who's as we all know, have 871 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 4: deep pockets that he's helped Indiana's program out tremendously, and 872 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 4: they've they've already got guys coming to you know, to 873 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 4: their team next year. In the portal, I think to 874 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 4: kind of keep this this uh, this the ride going 875 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 4: for the Hoosiers after potentially winning the national championship. 876 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 3: Uh. 877 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 4: But yeah, PJA loses a couple and that's gonna happen. 878 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,479 Speaker 4: By Oway's got Darius Taylor coming back, which is great news. 879 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 4: At the quarterback coming back. They've added a couple of 880 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 4: wide receivers, so as much as the KOI perrits. Theoretically, 881 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,840 Speaker 4: if he does leave in he hurts. You know, they 882 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 4: can keep adding players. And that's just the nature of 883 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,280 Speaker 4: of how this madness continues, is going to continue. 884 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 3: Did you watch much of the college football players at all? Yeah? 885 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 4: Yes, which game I watched the most? It's it's such 886 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 4: a blur right now. I'm anxious to watch. Uh, you 887 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 4: know Indiana Oregon. Then Oregon is running back already announced 888 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 4: he's going. 889 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 3: In the portal. 890 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 4: I thinking he's playing in the National semi finals, and like, 891 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 4: I assume he's playing. 892 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 3: But I mean Indiana, that's who did they they just 893 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 3: who did they play? They just Alabama? They just love 894 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 3: loved watching him just run right over Alabama. 895 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,439 Speaker 2: I mean that was a fight. They would have stopped it. Yeah, 896 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 2: it was Ohio State lost in Miami, and we talked 897 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 2: about that. 898 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. You know, there are people I think 899 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 3: Signetti rubbed some people wrong. You know, they google me 900 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 3: thing and all that. I don't it doesn't Yeah, it 901 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 3: doesn't bother me. A matter of fact. I I there 902 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 3: are people also that that can't root for teams in. 903 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 2: The NFC North, can't root for teams in the in 904 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 2: the in the l Central, can't root for teams in 905 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 2: the Big Ten. That stuff doesn't I'm not that into 906 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,720 Speaker 2: it that that bothers me. I like the Indiana story. 907 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 2: I mean, that's a team that has I mean, it's 908 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,839 Speaker 2: never ever been a football team ever football school. However, 909 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 2: you look back at some of these numbers and I 910 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 2: don't have them in front of me, but the last 911 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 2: time they did this nineteen thirty two or something. You know, 912 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 2: it's like they're doing things that nobody thought this this this. 913 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 2: They were always a basketball school, of course, and so 914 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 2: I find it. I find it refreshing that a team 915 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 2: that has had and you know what, you kind of 916 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 2: you think, well, if Indiana we talked about it before, 917 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 2: Wisconsin has had moments. I was at even Northwestern's had moments. 918 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 2: Who always go, why cam't Minnesota here's another one Indiana? 919 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,400 Speaker 2: What more do they have except maybe I guess they 920 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 2: got a deep pocketbook on nil. 921 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 4: Also got to hell a football we help a football 922 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 4: coach and that, yeah. I mean, it does give hope 923 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 4: to all the other teams that that it's possible. I mean, 924 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,320 Speaker 4: as Kevin Garnett said, anything's possible. Is that what he 925 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 4: said when he was screaming? And I'm like, yeah, I mean, 926 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 4: I I want Indiana to win. I think it'd be 927 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,680 Speaker 4: a great story. I mean they and I think they'll 928 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 4: they already played Oregon once and I think they'll they'll 929 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 4: end up in the championship game and they're just a 930 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 4: and I don't know the name of that center. I 931 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,240 Speaker 4: mean we're talking about the you know, what the Vikings 932 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 4: needs are. I know they gave him. They may have 933 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 4: given him, I thought the MVP Award for that that 934 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 4: last game in the Rose Bowl. But he looks right 935 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 4: now that he could start on any NFL team, like 936 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 4: right now. I mean, he's just that prototypical lineman you'd 937 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 4: love to have on your football team. And maybe, uh 938 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 4: maybe that'd be a potential fine for the Vikings. He's 939 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 4: still around at that point, but yeah, not a big name. 940 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 4: But those guys that road grinders as they call him, 941 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 4: road graders, that helped that team out tremendously. 942 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 3: You like this Indiana club? No, well, what's not to like? 943 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 4: I don't know what, you know, the quarterback, you know, 944 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 4: everyone's kind of projected the top Mendoza. Mendoza, I think 945 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,280 Speaker 4: it's a really good college quarterback. 946 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 3: I don't know. 947 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 4: I mean we can say the same thing about JJ 948 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 4: McCarthy and that you don't know how it's going to 949 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 4: translate to the pros. 950 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,759 Speaker 3: He'll get picked of course giving it, I don't know. 951 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 3: And that's another thing I don't know. 952 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it depends, you know, if you're looking 953 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,800 Speaker 2: for a quarterback that is that it is like, for instance, 954 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 2: in reading all the different stories about you know, the 955 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 2: sort of the post mortem on the season, what happened 956 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 2: in the Vikings quarterback situation with you know, you know, 957 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,359 Speaker 2: taking a pass on darn Old Danny Dime surprises him 958 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 2: and doesn't sign and it's McCarthy and then you know 959 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 2: they the Sam Howell guy doesn't. 960 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 3: Pan out. 961 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 2: They're also talking about how the Vikings took a pass 962 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 2: to you know, before the McCarthy draft where there was 963 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 2: five guys or six guys that went in the top 964 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 2: whatever that the draft before that wasn't his deep quarterback. 965 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 2: Why so that's why the Biking's a lot of other 966 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,359 Speaker 2: teams just said, you know, we'll take a pass here, 967 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 2: and you know that's like this year it from what 968 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 2: from what? Unless either of you guys can correct me, 969 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 2: I know, tend to be kind of pays attention to 970 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 2: this stuff more closely than I do. 971 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 3: It seems like this is a weak quarterback class. 972 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, compared to compared to comparatively speaking, So it's like, 973 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 2: if this is the year you get that number one 974 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 2: or two pick and you're looking for a franchise quarterback, 975 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 2: you're going do we take like, let's let's use Mendoz 976 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,720 Speaker 2: as an example. I don't know, does this talents transfer 977 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 2: to the NFL? I don't know, do I really want 978 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 2: to do that? If I'm not sure where you'd rather have? 979 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 3: You know when, when when? 980 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 2: And none of are are guarantees. But when you had 981 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 2: a Caleb Williams or a Drake May, you're thinking, well, 982 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 2: this is a this it's it's, it's it's it's easier 983 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:48,919 Speaker 2: to go grab one of those guys than to say, 984 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 2: we're going to take a flyer on a guy. 985 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 4: Which and you're potentially in that Oregon organ in the 986 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 4: endgame looking at two of the top three four picks 987 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 4: in the draft. Yeah, Dante Moore from Oregon is is 988 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 4: I'm just like ann one uh mock draft already and 989 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 4: they have him going number two to the Jets so 990 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 4: Mendoza number one and Dante Moore number two. So it's 991 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 4: worth watching.
