Speaker 1: face when Parker Fox walked in just carrying some waffle juice.
Speaker 2: What's the actual title on it there.
Speaker 3: Power Cakes, flap Jack quick Mix. He said, he doesn't
Speaker 3: go to the store.

Speaker 4: a week ago, when Taylor was gone because I needed something.
Speaker 4: Wait a minute, not the first time ever. Well no,
Speaker 4: not the first time, and the first time in like years, yeah, years.
Speaker 4: And I mean I'll go with Taylor sometimes, but like
Speaker 4: the other day, she was like, you want to go
Speaker 4: to the store, and I was like, well, that means
Speaker 4: you're gonna go to Target, then you're gonna go to
Speaker 4: Aldi or maybe cub or then you're gonna go somewhere else.

Speaker 5: more all right, I'm gonna go get the three or
Speaker 5: four things that I need and get out fair enough

Speaker 5: a while it's like there's a three or four things. Hey,
Speaker 5: that looks good, I need waffle mix, and you go home.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Well, I just realized. When I was in the cub today,
Speaker 4: I was like, I don't know the last time I've
Speaker 4: like really went in shop. So I was like, where
Speaker 4: the heck could waffle mix be? I thought they used
Speaker 4: to have like the big yellow bottle or whatever, you
Speaker 4: know what I mean. Yeah, I could not find that anywhere. No,
Speaker 4: couldn't find that anywhere. And cub at seven am is
Speaker 4: I don't know if the customer service is all there.

Speaker 1: them too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, put them away, lavel.
Speaker 1: Down Now you took it too far.
Speaker 2: You don't know where the line is.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: Here's a weird story that's very very serious, and I'll
Speaker 1: start the news with it. But as she prepares to
Speaker 1: her return to the Today Show, Savannah Guthrie has taped
Speaker 1: an interview with Interview with Hodacopy sit Down Well air
Speaker 1: Thursday and Friday on Today. It will be Guthrie's first
Speaker 1: interview since her mom and Nancy Guthrie, went missing, the
Speaker 1: victim of an apparent kidnapping nearly two months ago. NBC
Speaker 1: aired a short clip for the of the interview. I
Speaker 1: should say on Wednesday morning, someone needs to do the
Speaker 1: right thing. We are in agony. We are in agony.
Speaker 1: It is unbearable, Guthrie said, through tears. How do you
Speaker 1: go back to work? But how do you not go
Speaker 1: back to work? I mean, I mean, how do you
Speaker 1: get back with life? And it's not like she's going
Speaker 1: to work a regular job. She's got to go on
Speaker 1: TV every day. Isn't that something right?
Speaker 5: I honestly don't know how you do it because you
Speaker 5: have to have this weird kind of guilt of going
Speaker 5: back to normal when, like you just said, you have
Speaker 5: the rest of your life to live and if she
Speaker 5: never comes back, you can't wait forever. It's the impossible
Speaker 5: question that nobody wants to think about because it's a terrible,
Speaker 5: terrible choice. You either do nothing the rest of your
Speaker 5: life in sulk. That's a terrible idea, yeah, or you
Speaker 5: do this and have like weird survivors guilt, right, and
Speaker 5: it's a no win situation.
Speaker 1: It's terrible, And this is I'm going to qualify it,
Speaker 1: even though I don't think I should have to. But
Speaker 1: you guys know this is not I feel. But I
Speaker 1: would say that when you guys agree, there's a ninety
Speaker 1: percent chance that the reason her mom was kidnapped because
Speaker 1: is because she's on television.
Speaker 5: Maybe yeah, right, yeah, definitely could be. I mean, it's
Speaker 5: definitely a possibility.
Speaker 1: Right, So, man, I don't know, to fifty four years old,
Speaker 1: the centerpiece of the Today Show, one of the most
Speaker 1: important franchises in at NBCUniversal, So eventually she was going
Speaker 1: to have to go back to work, but still no
Speaker 1: word amazing that in this day and age that can happen.
Speaker 1: Amazing crazy that can happen. So I don't know. I
Speaker 1: hope for a miracle, but I can't. I can't imagine. Right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, when a handful of days ago, the Guthrie family
Speaker 5: was like trying to I beg maybe the wrong word,
Speaker 5: but kind of begged the public to not forget about
Speaker 5: this story and not lose track, It's like, well, you
Speaker 5: know that's isn't that The investigator's job is to keep
Speaker 5: from the case moving. I mean, all we can do
Speaker 5: is it's not like we stopped caring. It's just like
Speaker 5: there's no new information. If there was new information, we'd
Speaker 5: be like, oh, what's the update?
Speaker 2: What happened?
Speaker 5: So I don't you know, I know they want us
Speaker 5: to keep caring. I think everybody thinks it's a terrible story,
Speaker 5: but there's nothing new.
Speaker 4: That's got to be the hardest part of like victims' families,
Speaker 4: of like trying to sit back and let you know,
Speaker 4: the professionals do their job.
Speaker 2: It's like, how can I just sit here and do nothing?
Speaker 4: You know, right, You're not just going to go search
Speaker 4: neighborhoods for nothing, right, you need leads.
Speaker 5: It's it's terrible, man, I terrible. I can't imagine there's
Speaker 5: going to be a happy ending there. But there have
Speaker 5: been before though, sure.
Speaker 1: You know, like there's a documentary about that, that young
Speaker 1: lady who.
Speaker 2: Was gone for I mean ever, Elizabeth Smart.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, and that's a super happy ending even though
Speaker 5: she went through help. But I would argue, and this
Speaker 5: is I think what Savannah Guthrie is already hinted at.
Speaker 5: I think they just want resolution, even if she is dead.
Speaker 5: If she's dead, they want it to be over, whether
Speaker 5: she's returned alive or dead.
Speaker 4: They just don't want this kind of purgatory for the
Speaker 4: rest of their lives, not knowing what they should be doing.
Speaker 2: Correct. Should you keep looking or should you move on?
Speaker 2: You just want to answer. Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of our fine sponsors on the show is Saint
Speaker 1: Cloud State University. And this happened yesterday and some love
Speaker 1: going out to the Saint Cloud PD for handling this
Speaker 1: as quickly and as well as they did. Police say
Speaker 1: a Saint Cloud State University student was arrested on Monday
Speaker 1: after threatening to carry out a shooting on campus. Saint
Speaker 1: Cloud PD says it received a report of threats on
Speaker 1: the SCSU campus just before two pm, officers arrived to
Speaker 1: learn that a twenty nine year old man had threatened
Speaker 1: to shoot other students on the campus. The man from
Speaker 1: Saint Cloud was found to be in possession of a
Speaker 1: handgun and was taken into custody, with police also finding
Speaker 1: replica guns and other things in his belongings, taking to
Speaker 1: Sterns kind of jail, being held pending charges. The investigation
Speaker 1: is ongoing. But every story that I read that was
Speaker 1: kind of ancillary to this, you know, was saying that
Speaker 1: the cops responded perfectly and quickly, and thanks to the
Speaker 1: students and some student security people, the resolution was quick
Speaker 1: and taking care of perfectly and nobody got hurt. So
Speaker 1: thank God for that.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's spooky.
Speaker 1: That's terrifying, right, yeah, terrifying. So there you go. Here's
Speaker 1: a sports story that I find very very fun. Years
Speaker 1: from now, Carter Baumbler, I'm sure this night, you say
Speaker 1: it likely, I won't need to think for too long.
Speaker 1: We're recalling that he found out he was making a
Speaker 1: big league roster for the first time. Texas Rangers manager
Speaker 1: Skip Schumacher made that's right, made the moment memorable by
Speaker 1: sharing the news during a mound visit on Monday in Arlington, Texas.
Speaker 1: That's right, he was on the mound. He was pitching,
Speaker 1: and out of nowhere here came as manager to tell
Speaker 1: him he had made the squad.
Speaker 2: Brilliant.
Speaker 1: Isn't that cool?
Speaker 2: That's sweet?
Speaker 5: So I thought he was going to get removed from
Speaker 5: the game, but instead it was say by the way,
Speaker 5: he made the team.
Speaker 6: I wasn't expecting it. I was like, why is he
Speaker 6: coming out here? And he got on the mound and
Speaker 6: told me I made the team. It's pretty cool. I
Speaker 6: mean honestly, I thought I was getting taken out of
Speaker 6: the game. I didn't know what was going on. Obviously,
Speaker 6: whenever the manager comes out, are you're usually done?
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: He just came up and told me I made the team,
Speaker 6: and everybody just said congrats. Call me totally off guard.
Speaker 6: Went through a lot of hard times a few years ago.
Speaker 6: I never would have expected this. Looking back, I'm glad
Speaker 6: I kept my head down and kept hammering away.
Speaker 2: Pretty special.
Speaker 1: So again, Carter Bombler b A U M L E R.
Speaker 1: If you want to follow his career, He's made the
Speaker 1: big leagues. Great.
Speaker 5: How great would it be if Abbott right now? Did
Speaker 5: the opposite and walked in with some waffles and a
Speaker 5: tremendous twelve, handed it to Sauce and then said you
Speaker 5: are dismissed. Right, But the opposite of what this guy
Speaker 5: just went, would you take it and go?
Speaker 2: I would definitely eat.
Speaker 1: He definitely would.
Speaker 5: But outside though, Yeah, security doesn't. Security doesn't want you
Speaker 5: to eat it here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the guy escort you.
Speaker 1: He's going to sweeten it by having Chipskoggins right outside
Speaker 1: the front door and his blouse completely buttoned.
Speaker 2: Sorry, Chip, hey brought you up. I didn't know you did,
Speaker 2: said Scott.
Speaker 1: I did not.
Speaker 2: Corey did unbelievable warlocks right, and I'm Cyddy Lauper.
Speaker 1: See sorry, Chip, We love you though.
Speaker 2: This show's dumb.
Speaker 1: Carol Levin brought us this story about Target.
Speaker 7: Target is tightening its dress code for staff as a
Speaker 7: company tries to reinforce its in store brand. According to Bloomberg,
Speaker 7: Target will be stricter on its red shirts, saying similar
Speaker 7: shades like pink or maroon will no longer be acceptable.
Speaker 7: They are also limiting big logos and requiring khaki remember
Speaker 7: that or blue denim bottoms. That change is going to
Speaker 7: take effect this summer.
Speaker 5: I've always thought that was weird. I mean, I worked
Speaker 5: at best Buy. We all had Best Buy hellow shirts
Speaker 5: that were blue. Yeah, embroidered the whole every day exactly.
Speaker 5: I think I think they gave you two so you
Speaker 5: had to keep up on laundry otherwise you smell like ass.
Speaker 2: But you had to. You had to stay on top of.
Speaker 5: It's so funny because that was Julian Nelson, was it?
Speaker 1: Not that Julie.
Speaker 5: So it's funny because in Minnesota here we get a
Speaker 5: lot of Target employees that are rocking gopher colors and
Speaker 5: I'm like, that is maroon. That is clearly not red.
Speaker 5: There's a gopher on the sleeve. You're supposed to be
Speaker 5: wearing red. And I'm going, this is just anarchy. This
Speaker 5: is lower to the flies here. They can just wear
Speaker 5: whatever they want.
Speaker 1: What store am I in?
Speaker 2: Right? Right? So yeah, tied it up a little bit.
Speaker 2: Let's let's look like professional.
Speaker 4: If Parker is going to only go to your store
Speaker 4: once every four years, be presentable.
Speaker 5: Come on, he doesn't want to see maroon and gold gophers.
Speaker 2: Enough of that? Yeah, wait too much.
Speaker 1: I used to work at the Ben Franklin, remember those stores.
Speaker 4: Ben Franklin, Oh yeah, sure, is that a paint store
Speaker 4: that was like, well, yeah, I mean they had no hardware.
Speaker 2: It was like a Target before a Target that everything.
Speaker 1: Enough and their only dress code was we had to
Speaker 1: wear Baby Seal skin thongs. Come on, by atoms. We
Speaker 1: could wear any top we want.
Speaker 2: Had to be from Baby Seals. How long did you
Speaker 2: work there?
Speaker 1: Eight years?
Speaker 2: God? Because because the employee discounts, it's.
Speaker 1: An antique store. Now I still go in there with.
Speaker 2: The throw stuff on the ground to see if the employees. Yeah,
Speaker 2: how long did it take to get comfortable? Immediately?
Speaker 1: For comfortable? A lot of hair?
Speaker 2: Except this is my destiny.
Speaker 1: You guys are weird, don't we talking about nothing?
Speaker 2: But it gets tangled.
Speaker 1: H the news that's the worst, by the way, you're right,
Speaker 1: the worst.
Speaker 2: All right, stats you want to do sports when we
Speaker 2: get back.
Speaker 5: I'd love Targaus Parker wants to hear all about it,
Speaker 5: all right, to say more of the powers? You want
Speaker 5: to show Ann Parker Fox after this on the fan.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's some sweet bass guitaris. My goodness. All right,
Speaker 1: here we go, Arka foxin studio, play a air base.
Speaker 1: We've seen airbase. I look at this one. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: a big right there, he cipher some spots. It's time
Speaker 1: for a fan five on the Power Trip.
Speaker 3: Brent Larson is the new Gopher men's hockey coach. He
Speaker 3: has over one hundred and fifty wins and was recently
Speaker 3: the head coach at Saint Cloud from twenty eighteen to
Speaker 3: this past season. In his first year at Saint Cloud,
Speaker 3: they were thirty six and three.
Speaker 2: WHOA, that'd be sweet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm excited to see what people say about this
Speaker 4: higher because you know, eight years ago or ten years
Speaker 4: or whatever it is is basically the same situation. You
Speaker 4: bring motsco from Saint Cloud and now you're doing it
Speaker 4: over again. But clearly they have faith that he can
Speaker 4: push this program in the right direction. I think, as
Speaker 4: a guy who grew up on Gopher hockey, like we
Speaker 4: would go to all the Gopher games, like Minnesota should
Speaker 4: be one of the top premier locations and destinations for
Speaker 4: kids across the country, especially year one, especially year in Minnesota. Right, So,
Speaker 4: I'm excited to see hopefully the trajectory of the program
Speaker 4: going the right way and you're competing for Big ten
Speaker 4: titles and national championships.
Speaker 2: Well said, got that right. Let's go.
Speaker 3: The Timberwolves battle the Rockets tonight at eight point thirty.
Speaker 3: Your Wolves are in the fifth spot, a half game
Speaker 3: up on the Rockets. That game can be heard right
Speaker 3: here on the fan.
Speaker 2: Could be a playoff preview right now.
Speaker 4: Lakers are the three Denvers, the four Timberwolves, the five Rockets,
Speaker 4: the six in the West. So I think this is
Speaker 4: the matchup if you're the Wolves that you would maybe
Speaker 4: want to see. Luka Doncic is playing at a at
Speaker 4: a super high level for the Lakers right now, Lebron's
Speaker 4: playing well. Then you mix that with a Denver team
Speaker 4: who's always plays well against the Timberwolves. So if you're
Speaker 4: looking at like where you want to be in the playoffs,
Speaker 4: I would maybe want to see the Rockets because they
Speaker 4: just don't have the depth that some of these other
Speaker 4: teams do. Timberwolves are a big win in Boston. I'm
Speaker 4: sure you guys talked abut that, but uh talk did Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 4: twenty one years since we won there, so they got
Speaker 4: to be feeling good about themselves. So I think they
Speaker 4: are underdogs at home tonight minus one and a half,
Speaker 4: no Anthony Edwards, So.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you the four Sweet sixteen men's games tomorrow.
Speaker 2: You just give me your quick thoughts.
Speaker 3: Okay, perdue In Texas, Texas, the eleven seed produce the
Speaker 3: two seed produce a seven and a half point Yeah.
Speaker 4: Purdue coming off winning the Big Ten championship.
Speaker 2: I like them.
Speaker 4: They got veteran two senior guards, so I like Purdue.
Speaker 3: Two more Big Ten teams Nebraska the fourth seed in
Speaker 3: Iowa the nine seed. Nebraska is a one and a
Speaker 3: half point favorite. Bets tomorrow at six thirty.
Speaker 2: How fun is that we get the Sweet sixteen with
Speaker 2: Iowa versus Nebraska. It's like Freddie Hoiberg, It's unbelivable.
Speaker 4: Somebody said, however much bush light you have in Houston, Texas,
Speaker 4: double it because he just do not have enough, but
Speaker 4: because that's where the game's being played.
Speaker 2: But I like Nebraska. I think they have more depth.
Speaker 4: But Iowa has the best player in Bennett Starts, so
Speaker 4: he could be the difference maker.
Speaker 2: I think that's a tight one. I think his aunt
Speaker 2: Enrma is going to be at the game. Let's go
Speaker 2: normally start lame attempt at humor enormous stare.
Speaker 3: Three one seeds are left in that includes Arizona, well, battle.
Speaker 3: Arkansas Arizona is a seven and a half point favorite tomorrow.
Speaker 2: That game is at eight forty five, and I think
Speaker 2: that line's gone down.
Speaker 4: I think it opened at like nine and a half
Speaker 4: or ten and a half when I first saw it,
Speaker 4: and I think getting lower is better because this Arkansas
Speaker 4: team is legit. They have probably the best player left
Speaker 4: in the tournament. Sign signed a deal with Reebok. He's
Speaker 4: the first ever college to get his own signature. Shoe
Speaker 4: came out with like an ad with Allen Iverson about
Speaker 4: how he's the truth or hawk.
Speaker 1: I think that you're talking about driver McDougall.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a terrible close, Darius A Cuff junior, see,
Speaker 4: but that's gonna be a good game.
Speaker 2: That'll be a great game.
Speaker 4: Did you just have surgery on your a cuff a
Speaker 4: couple of days A, Yeah, my a cuff is now clean.
Speaker 3: And then two seed Houston a three and a half
Speaker 3: point favorite over another Big ten team, Illinois.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Illinois's got the offensive firepower. Houston known for the
Speaker 4: better defense, but they're not the tough, gritty defense that
Speaker 4: they've been the past couple of years. I think Illinois
Speaker 4: has too much, too much offense, it.
Speaker 3: We'll just go through the rest of them here. Duke
Speaker 3: and Saint John's. Duke is a six and a half
Speaker 3: point favorite. That game's at six to ten on Friday.
Speaker 3: That'll be that'll be my game of the tournament. I
Speaker 3: got Saint John's winning at all really Yeah.
Speaker 4: I love their defense, I love Rick Patino, And now
Speaker 4: do I think Duke can win this game by fifteen?
Speaker 2: Probably?
Speaker 4: Saint John's doesn't have the offense, but if they play
Speaker 4: well in the defensive end and make shots, they're gonna
Speaker 4: they're gonna win it.
Speaker 2: All.
Speaker 3: Alabama and another Big ten team, Michigan is a Michigan
Speaker 3: is a nine and a half point favorite on Friday.
Speaker 4: It's six thirty five. Yeah, Michigan's front court is dominant.
Speaker 4: I've talked about it. They go six, eight, six, ten,
Speaker 4: and seven to three across the board a huge bit.
Speaker 4: I know in their front court it's it's insane. So
Speaker 4: I think they're just too big for Alabama. But Alabama's
Speaker 4: got the guards, so it should be a should be
Speaker 4: kind of a mismatch on both vs.
Speaker 5: How good was that dude for Alabama? They got busted
Speaker 5: with two pounds a week?
Speaker 2: Really good?
Speaker 4: Yeah, he wasn't their best player, but he was probably
Speaker 4: the their next best player.
Speaker 2: How outdated does that feel?
Speaker 5: I know, like when you have a weed, you're you're
Speaker 5: you're selling it, You're you're a drug dealer, you're doing
Speaker 5: illegal things. Yeah, but we act like he killed somebody
Speaker 5: that would have been a huge deal like thirty years ago.
Speaker 2: Now it's like, let the man sell and now there
Speaker 2: the tobacco leaf.
Speaker 4: Yeah, now is like lowered, like you can have like
Speaker 4: THHC or whatever it is in your system when you
Speaker 4: pass the drug test, Like there's a threshold that you
Speaker 4: can be in show.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe he'll be back.
Speaker 4: I haven't heard any new reports on on that, but
Speaker 4: I mean it's a lot of weeds.
Speaker 3: He's selling fentanyl. They're selling weed everywhere, and the victim
Speaker 3: was correct. Think of how good the cat must feel.
Speaker 3: Yukon two seed, Michigan State three seed. Yukon is a
Speaker 3: one and a half point favorite.
Speaker 4: Yeah, two of the best coaches in the tournament and
Speaker 4: Hurly and is oh. Michigan State wants to play super
Speaker 4: fast and Yukon wants to guard you, so it'll be, uh,
Speaker 4: it'll be a mess game. Yukon's got probably the you know,
Speaker 4: the experience, the veteran leadership, but Michigan State has arguably
Speaker 4: the best guard left in the tournament and in fears,
Speaker 4: so I like that game as well.
Speaker 3: In the last game on Friday night nine to ten pm,
Speaker 3: Iowa State Tennessee.
Speaker 2: Are you going? I wish I was going to day
Speaker 2: I am unfortunately not going. Saw some weed. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna start selling some weed. I a ticket.
Speaker 4: I think the getting the door price for the Midwest
Speaker 4: Tournament is like three forty So you know a guy,
Speaker 4: I know a guy, but you know how many families
Speaker 4: coming out of the woodworks for for tickets and situations.
Speaker 2: And I'm marrying his sister. Yeah, but I know how
Speaker 2: it is when I played in it too. It's like
Speaker 2: you get four to six easy to come by.
Speaker 4: Yeah that's true, get like six tickets, and you know
Speaker 4: everybody wants them, and especially now and being in Chicago,
Speaker 4: people can just drive down. So it's still TVD. I know,
Speaker 4: I know that I would love to go, but we
Speaker 4: will see how it happens. But I love Iowa State
Speaker 4: in that game. Their best player has been out in
Speaker 4: Joshua Jefferson, so hopefully he can healthy. If he can
Speaker 4: get healthy, they can legitimately win it all. And Taylor's
Speaker 4: brother Nate's been playing at a really high level. I
Speaker 4: think average on like fourteen points per game Kentucky. Yeah,
Speaker 4: in the second half. Yeah, that was that was a

Speaker 4: I'm excited for coach Putz White, and you know, I've
Speaker 4: gotten to know some of the players over the years,
Speaker 4: especially mar Brown, who's an awesome player.
Speaker 2: So I'm excited they have the opportunity.
Speaker 4: Like UCLA is a powerhouse, they could easily you know,
Speaker 4: pound them, but hey, get the chance.
Speaker 2: To go play. The coach was on with Barrero. She's great.
Speaker 4: She was a great interview with Yeah, she was awesome.
Speaker 4: I used to play against her son back in the day.

Speaker 3: out scored six to one the rest of the way.
Speaker 2: To lose six to three. Uh, Zukarella, Faber, and Terrass.
Speaker 2: Isn't it? I tell you say it? Zuparello nailed it.
Speaker 3: Uh. Faber and Tarasinko scored for the Wild. They are
Speaker 3: now forty twenty and twelve. They battled the Panthers tomorrow
Speaker 3: at six pm.
Speaker 4: I don't want to just keep talking, but I watched
Speaker 4: that whole game, so it was fun. One of the
Speaker 4: goals that they scored at the end, they broke the
Speaker 4: camera inside the goal and it bounced straight out, so
Speaker 4: they didn't know to like stop the game or not.
Speaker 4: The puck kept going and there's glass all over the
Speaker 4: ice and everything. So but that's a playoff type of game,
Speaker 4: right there. Cleunch of big fights, f being thrown.
Speaker 3: You don't you don't run the best player on the
Speaker 3: team and not. Yeah the crap beat Audio.
Speaker 4: And Fellino is and this is the new Fellno Nick Feleino.
Speaker 4: He can really fight and he fights with both hands,
Speaker 4: which I've never seen you use.

Speaker 1: I'm usually busy with something.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, what about your third hand?
Speaker 3: The Twins Hogs Daddy opened their season tomorrow and Baltimore
Speaker 3: at two o five. Joe Ryan will go for your
Speaker 3: Minnesota Twins.
Speaker 1: Yeah, am I the experts? Yeah absolutely, let's go. I'm excited.
Speaker 2: Let's go.
Speaker 1: Is baseball season Winnersville, USA.
Speaker 2: Take me out to the ball game. Take me out
Speaker 2: to the game. I just want to be at the game.
Speaker 2: Would like, dude, the game. I'd like popcorner Caddy and
Speaker 2: the home dam the.
Speaker 5: Second Rob Low reference of the the morning excellent, the best.
Speaker 5: How do you keep a straight face when Rob Blow
Speaker 5: is going for it like he did in that Yeah,
Speaker 5: like and it's everybody in the cast is basically in
Speaker 5: that room.
Speaker 2: How do you keep a straight face, because my.
Speaker 5: Guess is that's the first time he busted that out right,
Speaker 5: and may all have to not break out laughing.
Speaker 2: My popcorn and candy and the home team at the game.
Speaker 2: Parks and Rec worth it.
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, saw Rushmore's Mount Rushmore. For sure, it's
Speaker 4: not better than Curb No, but it's it's on the
Speaker 4: Mount Rushmore.
Speaker 2: Okay, that'll be the next one.
Speaker 4: The first season is slow, but worth it. So is
Speaker 4: every show. Right, Yeah, that's just what it is.
Speaker 5: And this is a repeat take, but this is the
Speaker 5: truth again. Chris Pratt's one of the biggest stars in
Speaker 5: the world.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 5: The first season of Parks and Rec is nuts because
Speaker 5: he is an antillary character and he was supposed to
Speaker 5: will only be a one season side character.
Speaker 2: And then they realized he was.
Speaker 5: They're like, this guy's hilarious, so then he's a major
Speaker 5: character the rest of the way. So watching the first
Speaker 5: season knowing that that was supposed to be it for
Speaker 5: him is kind of funny.
Speaker 2: Knowing that he's a giant star. Now, yeah, there's some
Speaker 2: there's some big actors, and that's fantastic.
Speaker 3: The best part about that scene that you were just
Speaker 3: talking about Corey with Rob Lows singing is all of
Speaker 3: the actors are focusing on something so they don't last.
Speaker 3: They're not looking at him and I mean it's just
Speaker 3: staring off in the distance so he doesn't break character.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And the gist was they were trying to come
Speaker 5: up with a campaign song for Leslie and they couldn't
Speaker 5: find it.
Speaker 2: They couldn't get.
Speaker 5: It, but but they needed to hear everybody's singing voice
Speaker 5: to see who could sing. So Rob just busted out
Speaker 5: his version of taking me out to the ballgame with
Speaker 5: about thirty percent of the lyrics being correct. That's broll
Speaker 5: and he I mean, that's obviously at one hundred percent.
Speaker 2: He went for it. Yeah, that's good for its commitment
Speaker 2: to the bit. More on Baseball the NB season, that's
Speaker 2: this segment.
Speaker 3: The NB season starts tonight with the Yankees battling the
Speaker 3: Giants at seven o five on Netflix. I'm Not Smart,

Speaker 2: Joe Flakut to a one year deal. Who did the
Speaker 2: BEng Bengals, so he's staying with Cincinnati. Yeap. He had
Speaker 2: a four hundred and seventy yard game last year against
Speaker 2: the Bears.
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, for seventy and they lost. But he
Speaker 4: just just slinging it.
Speaker 2: That was it. That's a fantasy dream in those games.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Man, he's forty one years old, six million, he's won
Speaker 4: to hold a clipboard.
Speaker 2: Was he done? Wasn't he done? When? Pretty sure? Yea
Speaker 2: brought him back because he was done. It was Cleveland,
Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, it goes to the Browns. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Then they traded him in division to the Bengals. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and then he torched him a few times. That's gotta
Speaker 3: be the worst feeling Whales.

Speaker 9: the draft is thirty, no, twenty nine days from today.
Speaker 9: They'll take players. Some of them will be good, some
Speaker 9: of them won't be I mean that's yeah, I mean,
Speaker 9: who knows? Who would you like to see him?
Speaker 2: Take? O? J. Simpson's brother Tom Tom Simpsons Simpson.
Speaker 1: Yep, what position he plays? Long snapper with the first
Speaker 1: we just signed.
Speaker 2: You need to back up, Okay, take him number one overall.
Speaker 1: Overall, that's what I take. I'm an expert. Don't question me.
Speaker 5: I saw the Vikings post the video of Johnny Hecker
Speaker 5: signing his deal and do like, you know, you just
Speaker 5: don't hear Punter's talk ever, so that obviously that was
Speaker 5: the first time I'd ever really seen his face, let
Speaker 5: alone him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know talking seems like a good dude. Yeah, man.
Speaker 2: He's he's very good.
Speaker 1: I do have a little bit of news, including what
Speaker 1: he broke this morning. In twenty twenty eight, will have
Speaker 1: been ten years since US Bank Stadium hosted Super Bowl
Speaker 1: l I I. The Vikings are hoping to bring another
Speaker 1: major event to the stadium a decade after that Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Somebody got an email the team in Minnesota Sports Events
Speaker 1: submitted a bid for the twenty twenty eight NFL Draft
Speaker 1: earlier this month. Minneapolis Saint Paul is one of several
Speaker 1: NFL markets bidding for the draft, which could bring hundreds
Speaker 1: of thousands of visitors to the area during a three
Speaker 1: day event in late April. Lester Bagley, my main Man,
Speaker 1: the Vikings executive vice president of public Affairs, said the
Speaker 1: team has been trying to bring the draft to the
Speaker 1: Twin Cities since twenty nineteen. The twenty twenty eight bid
Speaker 1: would feature US Bank Stadium as the anchor of the
Speaker 1: draft weekend in downtown Minneapolis. Bagley said the draft proposal
Speaker 1: would feature events in both cities, as well as the
Speaker 1: Mall of America and Viking Lakes developments around the team's
Speaker 1: Egan headquarters. The late April draft date could mean a
Speaker 1: dicey weather forecast for outdoor events in Minnesota. But we
Speaker 1: all remember the NFL draft was in Green Bay, it
Speaker 1: was in Detroit, and it was in Kansas City. So
Speaker 1: come home if they can do a week and do it.
Speaker 1: This year's draft is, by the way, April twenty third
Speaker 1: through the twenty fifth.
Speaker 2: Yep C.
Speaker 5: That is the I mean again, I agree to disagree.
Speaker 5: Shouldn't be here? Put it in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2: Argument.
Speaker 1: I support Lester Bagley and all that he does him
Speaker 1: he's the best.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a plus.
Speaker 1: And I would like to see the draft here so
Speaker 1: that I can attend it and scream bloody murder when
Speaker 1: we take a player I don't like.
Speaker 2: That is your mo o though you do that at home. Yeah,
Speaker 2: what if the guy's name is bloody Murder?
Speaker 1: What if that's the guy I want them to take?
Speaker 2: Blood middle initial e, last name murder.
Speaker 1: Man from a rough household.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's tough man. The bundyes don't raise him right.
Speaker 1: And the craziest thing, he's a crip, Yeah, which is
Speaker 1: I mean, unbelievable. And I mean he's a member.
Speaker 2: Of the games. You're getting email.
Speaker 1: I meant he's a crip and his name is blood
Speaker 1: and that's ironic.
Speaker 2: Don't you think it's right in the face? Honestly, how
Speaker 2: did he pass his physical Man like the Max Crosby
Speaker 2: trade didn't go through, and this did. Jesus shows.
Speaker 1: By the way, Mune Year, I don't know said. The
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four NFL Draft brought fans from all fifty
Speaker 1: states and twenty countries to Detroit, delivering and estimated are
Speaker 1: you ready for this two hundred and thirteen million dollars
Speaker 1: of economic impact?
Speaker 2: I mean that part, that's obviously we'll take that.
Speaker 5: In Minneapolis they land the draft, sure, but yeah, it's
Speaker 5: it's going to be a clown show. And again it's
Speaker 5: a it's you know, it's the most Vikings thing ever.
Speaker 5: It's the most Minnesota sports thing ever. They had the
Speaker 5: draft in Detroit, they had it in Kansas City, they
Speaker 5: had it in Green Bay. We're gonna book it. It's
Speaker 5: going to be here in twenty twenty eight, and the
Speaker 5: most historic blizzard this state has ever seen is going
Speaker 5: to drop on my birthday in twenty twenty eight and
Speaker 5: obliterates twenty twenty eight drafts.
Speaker 2: Yep, Oh that's right, it's going to be a disaster. Yep.
Speaker 1: And the drifts they'll have to go through to get
Speaker 1: to the stage to hand in the draft pick.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's all covered. They don't care about that.
Speaker 5: Blood E Murders snowboards to the stage to hug a
Speaker 5: frozen Roger Goodell.
Speaker 2: That'd be great. He's up there like casino man. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you have hawk, just snowmobile them all in.
Speaker 1: Man, I got friends.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the valley doing back flips with a Fernando Mendoza.
Speaker 2: Why not. I just don't think there's a disaster area
Speaker 2: for it. Downtown. Oh, come on, what makes it great
Speaker 2: at these.
Speaker 1: Yeah they're not having a green bay.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that's all wide open. They don't have tall buildings.
Speaker 5: He's right, there's no skyscrapers. Yeah, there's just an Applebee's.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's just a big field of nonsense, big feeldy, How
Speaker 3: would you describe Wisconsin.
Speaker 2: It's a big field of nonsense.
Speaker 1: I think it's the perfect city for it, and I
Speaker 1: want it now. Lester, tell us how we can help?
Speaker 1: What can we do to make this happen?
Speaker 2: He's probably listening.
Speaker 1: I know he is. He's a fan, he's a friend.
Speaker 1: I like that.
Speaker 5: Why do we get that economic impact but still have
Speaker 5: the draft in Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: Well, you can go the draft anywhere, brother, Yeah, listen
Speaker 1: to the whole here and you can fly on out
Speaker 1: there and watch it.
Speaker 5: I want, I want the draft to be in Las Vegas,
Speaker 5: held in Las Vegas. The prospects go to Las Vegas,
Speaker 5: the coverages in Las Vegas. But Vegas just Venmos, Minneapolis.
Speaker 5: All of the money. Yeah, how do we make that happen?
Speaker 5: Somebody smarter than me figure that out. How do they
Speaker 5: send us all of the money?
Speaker 1: Just do this for me? Just I know there's going
Speaker 1: to be a side bed for the number one overall
Speaker 1: pick blood Em Murder raft.
Speaker 4: We call him Martin Moystchu is definitely going to give
Speaker 4: us the breakdown on blood E Murder and three or four.
Speaker 2: Certainly he's quietly giving us a preview of him.
Speaker 1: The NFL is preparing for the possibility of replacement officials
Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty sixth season, proposing a rule change
Speaker 1: for one season that would allow the replay Center in
Speaker 1: New York to correct any quote, clear and obvious mistakes
Speaker 1: by on field officials in case of a workstoppage. Did
Speaker 1: you know this was a possibility?
Speaker 5: I just read the headline and just and it's going
Speaker 5: to be perfect because our guy Adam feel and of
Speaker 5: course will be here Friday to play Initials and whatnot
Speaker 5: after eight o'clock.
Speaker 2: And remember he was on our show.
Speaker 5: Made Headlines when he basically said the officiating is getting
Speaker 5: I'm paraphrasing, is getting out of control. And one of
Speaker 5: the things he pointed to was the part time garbage.
Speaker 5: He's like, we need full time officials. And he was
Speaker 5: the one that said something about how they get starstruck
Speaker 5: and they want to go back to their normal jobs
Speaker 5: and say, hey, I you know, I was the one
Speaker 5: that through that that the personal what is the one
Speaker 5: I'm looking for roughing the quarterback? I'm Patrick Mahomes. Yeah,
Speaker 5: I through that.
Speaker 2: Fl okay great.
Speaker 1: So yeah.
Speaker 5: He was on Pro Football Talk dot Com and ESPN
Speaker 5: quoting on this show saying that the officials need to
Speaker 5: be full time, So no more replacement refs, no more
Speaker 5: part time refs.
Speaker 2: We need full time reffs. And I'm sure Adam can
Speaker 2: walk us through that again.
Speaker 1: What if Adam comes in on Friday to play the
Speaker 1: Initials game and reveals that he is going to become
Speaker 1: an NFL referee.
Speaker 2: I think he wants to be a pro golfer, so
Speaker 2: I think he wants to move up.
Speaker 5: We can ask him, Well, don't forget, and if fabot's listening,
Speaker 5: this is for you chat don't forget. He's going to
Speaker 5: get here just after eight, so we're only going to
Speaker 5: have a about three or four minutes to talk to
Speaker 5: him before we play Initials Game six twenty one. So
Speaker 5: most of his appearance, Chad will be because of Initials. Yes, Chad,
Speaker 5: we'll have very little time to ask him. I heard
Speaker 5: anything else. He's here just to play Initials.
Speaker 2: That was the only time he was available. Strictly business.
Speaker 2: Strictly business Initials.
Speaker 1: On air Protection real quick. Lora Goose would like to
Speaker 1: play the Initials. Got a new book coming out, so
Speaker 1: you'd like to come in.
Speaker 2: What's the book called.
Speaker 1: It's called two Tears.
Speaker 2: Dot Dot Yeah, got to wait, you gotta wait. Just
Speaker 2: let's that's a terrible name. All right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we'll get Lou Goose in the mix at some point.
Speaker 5: He's a good dude. We had him on the podcast
Speaker 5: back in the checking the email.
Speaker 1: That's that's not really the name of the book. I
Speaker 1: don't know where I got that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, great reporter.
Speaker 5: By the way, I guess you know now as local journalism,
Speaker 5: or as Sauce would say, local mail journalisms.
Speaker 2: Yep, uh, you know, the money is tight.
Speaker 5: The industry is changing newspapers, TV radio, it's all different, man.
Speaker 5: But he's one of the handful in town that proved
Speaker 5: we still need good reporters in this town.
Speaker 2: And lou Lu Goose is definitely one of them. More
Speaker 2: sure correct.
Speaker 1: I like Paul bloom Boat, loom Time Fox Nah too.
Speaker 1: The Competition Committee released its proposed rule changes for next
Speaker 1: season on Tuesday, including some small tweaks to the kickoff
Speaker 1: rule and allowing the replace center to eject players for
Speaker 1: flagrant acts on plays that were not penalized on the field.
Speaker 1: The changes will be considered by the owners at next
Speaker 1: week's league meetings in Arizona, and we need approval of
Speaker 1: twenty four of the thirty two teams to be implemented.
Speaker 1: The biggest proposal regards the contingency if there is a
Speaker 1: work stoppage with the officials and the league once again
Speaker 1: uses replacement officials as A did back in twenty twelve,
Speaker 1: which I don't remember that at all.
Speaker 2: Hey, how do they is?
Speaker 5: I forget when they first talked about this A handful
Speaker 5: of weeks ago about the replay officials having the right
Speaker 5: to throw somebody out of the game introactively throw a
Speaker 5: flag or would it be flagless, But you're like, nope,
Speaker 5: you threw a punch even though the rest didn't see it.
Speaker 5: Even though there's no flag, you're still out, is it?
Speaker 5: Because I would think if it's a delay, you can't
Speaker 5: really flag on it. Yeah, so it would just be
Speaker 5: an ejection without a flag.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 4: Well they'd have to find somebody to like announce it.
Speaker 4: You're not just going to pull them off the bench
Speaker 4: and yeah, it was your fantasy running back for the
Speaker 4: rest of the game.
Speaker 5: I still think it's a fair compromise, Like, all right,
Speaker 5: the officials missed the call, So sure you missed the flag,
Speaker 5: but you still threw a punch.
Speaker 2: You're gone, Yeah, you're going. It seems fair. That seems
Speaker 2: very fair logical, Like, yeah, it makes sense, it makes sense.
Speaker 1: Under the proposal from the old petition Committee, the Replay
Speaker 1: Center in New York would be able to advise the
Speaker 1: on field officials on any missed roughing the passer or
Speaker 1: intentional grounding penalty, as well as any act that would
Speaker 1: have led to an ejection had a penalty been called.
Speaker 5: See, but the first two sound like they can still
Speaker 5: throw the flag on intentional grounding or roughing the passer.
Speaker 1: The replace center would also be able to intervene to
Speaker 1: overturn calls that were made on several penalties, including illegal contact,
Speaker 1: face masks, roughing the passer, horse collar tackles, and intentional grounding,
Speaker 1: so they can, obviously before the next play say wait,
Speaker 1: we've looked at it. That wasn't face mask.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And they do kind of do that with intentional
Speaker 3: grounding because all the time there'll be no flag and
Speaker 3: all of a sudden they'll be like, wait, what that was,
Speaker 3: And then they'll gather and go all right after we watch,
Speaker 3: the ref will just throw it in the air and
Speaker 3: then they'll call it.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 5: The one thing I still don't understand, and I think
Speaker 5: I brought this up a couple of times last year
Speaker 5: during the Viking season, and I think I even think
Speaker 5: somebody explained it to me, and I still didn't understand it.
Speaker 5: I don't understand the difference between when a coach has
Speaker 5: to challenge and when replay assists just immediately calls down
Speaker 5: to the field and goes, hey, we got that wrong,
Speaker 5: by the way, you need to change that. Doesn't that
Speaker 5: seem like then it's non stop replay assist like yes time.
Speaker 4: If replay assist is always trying to help, then shouldn't
Speaker 4: a coach never have to challenge? I should just always
Speaker 4: have replay assists. I just don't understand how sometimes how
Speaker 4: does a coach know, oh I need to throw the
Speaker 4: flag to make sure that the replaces has more time
Speaker 4: to look at this.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I just I don't understand that.
Speaker 5: Process of when does replaces truly jump in and when
Speaker 5: do they do not? Or is it just a matter
Speaker 5: of if they have enough time they always will jump in. Well,
Speaker 5: we definitely don't see as many challenges. I feel like
Speaker 5: that could be wrong.
Speaker 1: But what if if they use AI technology for this?
Speaker 2: All iverson?
Speaker 1: That's right? Yeah, the practice, dude, no.
Speaker 2: Practice, Yeah, we're talking practice.
Speaker 5: Well, if they use AI technology, then we can't have
Speaker 5: the broadcast rights anymore because we are guaranteed human at iHeart,
Speaker 5: we're not using AI.
Speaker 2: Man, what happened to that? I haven't heard that in
Speaker 2: a while.
Speaker 4: It'll fade quickly again. I called it the day we
Speaker 4: launched it. I said, watch how fast this goes away.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't heard it in a while. Are we
Speaker 2: not guaranteed human anymore?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: We are.
Speaker 2: I don't know, are you. That would be like AT
Speaker 2: and T in the eighties, going, we're hanging on to
Speaker 2: the phonograph. Okay, we've moved on.
Speaker 4: Zach Morris and Gordon Gecko have cell phones, like, yeah, relax,
Speaker 4: we don't need that anymore.
Speaker 2: We're not going to do that. Yeah you are, Yes,
Speaker 2: you are. The whole world is off.
Speaker 1: Field rules that might be on institute. The committee also
Speaker 1: proposed giving the league the latitude to alter the date
Speaker 1: of the roster cutdown day, which is currently the Tuesday
Speaker 1: following the final exhibition games, to accommodate an international game
Speaker 1: in Week one, the Los Angeles Rims fan Frcisco are
Speaker 1: set to open the regular season in Australia, and gives
Speaker 1: the league the option to alter those dates based on
Speaker 1: when the teams travel to Australia. The committee also pros
Speaker 1: making the post proposed making the Saturday and Sunday of
Speaker 1: Labor Day weekend as business days, along for the twenty
Speaker 1: four hour waiver period for players to go into effect
Speaker 1: on those days instead of waiting until Monday.
Speaker 5: Were we settling on the probability that the Vikings have
Speaker 5: a national game in twenty twenty six?
Speaker 2: Unlikely?
Speaker 3: I mean, I think the only one we probably not
Speaker 3: it may I think the only one that can be
Speaker 3: is that Saints game in France.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that maye, ma'am. That'd be cool.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right, because it remind me, don't we have
Speaker 5: the don't we have the Rams on the schedule, but
Speaker 5: they've announced that it's the Niners that are playing them
Speaker 5: or something, So.
Speaker 2: I think you are correct.
Speaker 5: So it wasn't like a couple of years ago we
Speaker 5: had our fingers crossed, like maybe maybe we're headed to Australia.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it is the Rams and the forty nine ers. Yeap,
Speaker 1: that's that's going to open the room.
Speaker 5: So what do we what options? International options do we
Speaker 5: have this year? That does in San Francisco also play
Speaker 5: in Mexico City? I believe that is the case, and
Speaker 5: then New Orleans he does, and then I don't. I mean,
Speaker 5: nobody wants the Jets anywhere. Are the Patriots playing somewhere overseas?
Speaker 2: We play them? I don't know, and they would let's
Speaker 2: just go watch the Saints in France.
Speaker 1: Let's go order in Australia watch the opening game.
Speaker 2: Yeah Niners Rams, who cares?
Speaker 1: Right? So you go anyway. Lots of stuff to be decided,
Speaker 1: and we're getting closer and closer than it fell draft
Speaker 1: and we'll have more Draft care coverage featuring our Draft
