1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:00,560
Speaker 1: The fan.

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 2: Tournament Week has arrived.

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 3: The twenty twenty six MSHSL State Boys Hockey Tournament is

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 3: here and cafeen is your ringside destination for all the action.

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 3: Coverage begins Thursday on Cafe Inn and CAFN Plus, presented

6
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 3: by James Hardy, North America's number one sighting brand.

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 1: I don't think David Dubal had vertigo. I think that

8
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: was the kid from Australia, Jason Day at vertigo. Correct someone,

9
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: because a couple of people said, Didn'tduball suffer from vertigo?

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: And that's why I fell apart.

11
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 2: If he did, I.

12
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: Need it to but I remember Jason Day. If he did,

13
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 1: I'm not aware that I had vertigo. It's awful, it's

14
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 1: it'll affect more than your golf game, trust me. But

15
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: that's that's another story. Time Now for five three four?

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: Time Now four five questions, Well, actually three, but five

17
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: sounds like more than four.

18
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 2: Question number one.

19
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 4: It's now time to take an in depth look at

20
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:17,639
Speaker 4: the welfare of the Wolves.

21
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 3: The Wolves have won three in a row and moved

22
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 3: into fourth place in the West after winning one seventeen

23
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 3: one o wit yesterday in Denver. The Wolves used a

24
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 3: thirty six nineteen second quarter run to grab the lead.

25
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 3: Anthony Edwards score twenty one points, Jade McDaniel's out of

26
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: twenty and Boonen's Highland contributed eighteen.

27
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 2: Common Where on the Wolves bandwagon? Are you now about

28
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 2: where I've been?

29
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: I just wait to a postseason play now. They've I

30
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: have said this a couple thirteen fourteen times and at

31
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: least sixty seven. They approach it, approach a regular season

32
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: as more of an annoyance, as a necessary evil. And

33
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: that's the way I approach it then too. There's no

34
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: reason for me to take it seriously if they're not

35
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: going to take it seriously, because they don't. I mean

36
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: when when when the coach comes out and says, well,

37
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: we flyg this one is a playoff game. Another we

38
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: decided to put more importance into this game than all

39
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: the other games. That means you just don't take it seriously.

40
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: You don't take your work seriously. That's fine. Some of

41
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: us take our job seriously, like you and I. They

42
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: apparently don't do it in the NBA. So so I'm

43
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: where I've been. Get to the Western Conference finals and

44
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: get back. Now it's got to be get to the

45
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: NBA Finals and get back to me, because we did

46
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 1: the old got to the door, knocked on the door.

47
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: It's time to kick it in. Uh do they have

48
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: the talent? It seems like it. The acquisition with the

49
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: Bulls kid is good. I look at his numbers and

50
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: he seems to be contributing. He's he's, he's he's got

51
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: some pop off the off the bench for us. He

52
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: puts points up.

53
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: Sign became official today.

54
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,679
Speaker 1: Okay, and uh, you know that. I think that will help.

55
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: I don't know where they're going to find minutes for him,

56
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: but I'm sure, I'm sure the coach will. And then

57
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: you have bones was really good yesterday. Matter of fact,

58
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: yesterday was a really balanced If you look at the box,

59
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,239
Speaker 1: which I did, they they had balanced yesterday. They didn't rely.

60
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: Here's what I think though. You know, Aunt said it,

61
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: and you know, if you're going to have somebody take

62
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: the last shot on the walls, you'd want it to

63
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,679
Speaker 1: be Aunt. I don't think anybody would would argue with that.

64
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: But he said the old you know, paraphrasing how he

65
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: said it, But it was any shot he takes as

66
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: a good shot. You know, they had that little thing

67
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: where there looked like there was a little uh. It

68
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 1: was similar to Kirk Cousins and Mike Zimmer, remember when

69
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: Cousins shoved Zimmer and Zimmer got bitter. It seemed like

70
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: that there was in that in that two games ago,

71
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: maybe three games ago, where Aunt hit the was you know,

72
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: doing hero Ball, dribble and dribble and dribble and dribble,

73
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: and then he reared, you know, he he pulled up

74
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: and he hit a three over the top of two defenders,

75
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: brilliant shot, right, and he kind of you know, looked

76
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: at uh, looked at Finch and said something, what do

77
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: you think of my shooting over a double team now?

78
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: Or something like that, And then they've all said, Ah,

79
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: that's just how it is. That's the kind of relationship

80
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: they have that they push each other. And you know,

81
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: I even I saw that the story said something to

82
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: the effect where they're in film sessions, Finchell start picking

83
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: up part Ant's game where he's not doing right and

84
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: Ant doesn't really particularly like it. And then I don't

85
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: remember which player it was, but somebody on the team

86
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: might have been Conly or somebody said, I always tell him,

87
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: just don't say anything. Just listen to what he has

88
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: to say or something like that. So anyway, but here's

89
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: my fear is that I guess it's for every team

90
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: that has the guy their go to guy. I just

91
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: we're going to be in a game where we got

92
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: to win in postseason. We're down, you know, three games

93
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: to two, and the clock's winding down, and he's going

94
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 1: to try to hit that hero shot over two guys

95
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: and it's like, no, throw it to a guy that's opening.

96
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 1: Give somebody else a chance. That's that's the fear with

97
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: the James Hardens and the the Anthony Edwards is the

98
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: world is they don't They've never seen a shot. They

99
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 1: don't I think they can't make, which is great confidence

100
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: to have, but it always doesn't always work that way.

101
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: Baby brother Peter one time was playing in a game

102
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: over at Woodbury High School and he crossed center court

103
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 1: just under a minute to go on the game, fifty

104
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: seconds forty five something like that. We're up like one,

105
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: and Pete gets between the center court circle and the

106
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: top of the key, so he's further than an NBA three,

107
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: and he pulls up to take a shot in office

108
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 1: in the stands are going no, and he shot and

109
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: he made it, won the game, and I said, dude, bro,

110
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: why did you take that shot? He goes, because I

111
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: knew I was gonna I knew I was going to

112
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: make it so brilliant. So maybe Anna will make them all.

113
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm I'm, I'm, I'm I I hope we

114
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 1: can get to the NBA. We've never been to the

115
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: NBA finals in this town. Yea, well back in the

116
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: Lakers days, s Lakers days. But I you know, I,

117
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: I mean they're in the mix, so you know, just

118
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: hopefully they'll win. So I would I.

119
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 2: Think we had any team in the finals, right, yeah,

120
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: ninety one.

121
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: So I hope they. Yeah, I hope they. I'm I'm

122
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: on the bandwagon, I guess. Or but I'm i'm you

123
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: know me, I'm standing on the running board, hanging on

124
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: of the leather strap.

125
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 2: Question number two.

126
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 4: Time now for an in depth look at the state

127
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 4: of the state of hockey because Quinnesota.

128
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: Since he won his gold, has he been on with

129
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: the initials game yet, because that's got to be coming up,

130
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: doesn't it.

131
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: That'll be coming up after tonight' show.

132
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure, I'm sure this Friday he'll be on

133
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: the Wild loss of the same those Blues three one

134
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 3: yesterday afternoon at Grand Casine Arena. Pabl Butchinevitch gave the

135
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 3: Blues a two one lead with three and that's in

136
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 3: thirty nine seconds left in regulation. Coroka Presaffs scored the

137
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 3: long goal for the Wild, matching Marrion Gabbrick for the

138
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 3: most goals in franchise history. Philip Gustofson made twenty one saves.

139
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 3: It is only the third time the Wild have lost

140
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 3: back to back games and regulations since that bad October Common.

141
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 3: What's sticks out to you from the Wild's loss to

142
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 3: the Blues curse of the gold medal.

143
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: That's what I'm calling it. It's the curse of the

144
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: gold medal. If we wouldn't have won the gold, we

145
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: would have won the last two games and would be

146
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: right there. I don't know, it's not you know, you're

147
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: not gonna win them all. I guess I got pretty

148
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: excited after we beat Rotto and closed the gap to

149
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: five points, and you're thinking, yeah, it's still it's they

150
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: got two games at hand. It's five points. They win

151
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: two games, that's if they if they win those two

152
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: games they have in hand now they're back to nine

153
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: and you're not going to catch them. But now I

154
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: guess I'm my bubble has been my bubble has been bursted,

155
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: and I guess I just got to face the facts

156
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: that we're we're gonna we're gonna be the number two

157
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: or three seed, and where do we go from there?

158
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: I don't know that weird playoff system where you two

159
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: plays three, don't. I still don't understand why they do

160
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: it that way. Can you explain it to me? Is

161
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: there any prime or reason to it?

162
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: It just it's very confusing.

163
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: I like one one plays eight, two, place seven, Yeah, three,

164
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: place six or place five. That's the way it's always

165
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: been done in everything.

166
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 3: I wanted to create rivalries in the playoffs by playing

167
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 3: the same teams in your division, so four so each

168
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 3: each division, the top three will be on the same

169
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 3: side of the brackets, So the two and three will

170
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 3: play each other, and then the one will face well,

171
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 3: if the one wins, they'll face the winner of the

172
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,239
Speaker 3: two and three. But then there's a wild card team

173
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 3: that'll be in both brackets as well, So you could

174
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 3: technically have two more teams from the Central Division. They

175
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 3: could have five and Pacific could have three, but.

176
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: I like our club. I'm waiting to see what Billy

177
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: does for a for a trade. Everybody seems convinced he'd

178
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: make a trade. Two o'clock is the deadline. I think

179
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: everybody seems to we break in a program password if

180
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: if they make a trade, right, I think so unless

181
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 1: it's really you know, it's this critical moment in program

182
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: password that can wait. But I you know, I I yeah,

183
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: I'm willing to. I'm waiting to see what Billy does.

184
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: Hopefully it makes a nice blockbuster.

185
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 2: Because I guess it's gonna be Troe Check.

186
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: You think tro Check? Yeah, And he's the guy the

187
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: right handed shooting center for the Rangers in Yeah, he.

188
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 2: Was on the USA gold medal team as well.

189
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: She tired. Has he been jet studying across the country?

190
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 3: On fallon he didn't score like a game winning goal

191
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 3: against the Swedes and overtime, So I don't think he's

192
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 3: been making the rock. Yeah, but he was very critical

193
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: to their preenally kill, which was a big reason why

194
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: to be Canada.

195
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: Maybe he's been on the New York version of Twin City.

196
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,079
Speaker 2: Today, right, he's telling the initials game in New York.

207
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: I watched the second half of the UCLA game. I

208
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 1: know I rooped it up, started dousing. I started watching

209
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: the brasketball, but then it's just like, I guess I'm

210
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: kind of done with the brasketball for a while until

211
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: NCAA tournament. We love a Hoiberg. I was gonna call

212
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 1: them Hoyguard. That's a schemed store in town, Hoyguard. Plus

213
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: it's also the name of the two the twins that

214
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: play on the PGA Tour. I think they're from Norway

215
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: or Sweden or Denmark or something and they're really good.

216
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: They were both in this past tournament. I what did

217
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: you ask me? Oh?

218
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 2: Which Gophers headline? Reason?

219
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 4: You know?

220
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: For me? The locking down the four scene. The tournament's great.

221
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: It is that. That's nice and it's a feather in

222
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 1: the cap, but it's just a big ten tournament. They're

223
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: getting the tournament no matter what they are.

224
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 3: But now for the first time, you know, if you're

225
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 3: judging how they're predicting the NCAA tournament, Okay, some of

226
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 3: them are predicting now that there'll be a four seed

227
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 3: in the NCAA Tournament, which I mean, you would host

228
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 3: the region.

229
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 2: You would host the first two games.

230
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 3: So if you get into that top sixteen, which they

231
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 3: apparently are right now now obviously they're big ten tournament

232
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 3: play could change that. But that would be very big

233
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 3: for this program, not only make the NCAA tournament, you

234
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 3: get two home games right off the bat.

235
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 1: Are you watching exhibition baseball?

236
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 3: No, because there's actually a live hockey game on right now.

237
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 3: I don't know why, but Detroit's taking on Nashville. It's

238
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 3: time watching.

239
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: So I was speaking of Detroit. Those are like electric

240
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: orange jerseys. Can you see how orange they are. That's

241
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: just different almost any orange. And yeah, I'm getting a

242
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 1: headache from just I got to turn the channel. I've

243
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: got a headache from watching the TV. And I did

244
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: like the Dirkin kid was really good. It was as bad.

245
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: I think it's his best game as he couldn't miss.

246
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: And UCLA is not a ranked team, I don't think,

247
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: but they were like nineteen and nine or something like that.

248
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: Corner of the ass. That was a nice win for them.

249
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: H In the Galbach you set the scoring record.

250
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 3: Per hockey for the youth, which there's been a Yeah,

282
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 3: a bunch of statements already for next year. I already

283
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 3: got a bunch of audio. So at any point you

284
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 3: want to start going through some statements that have been

285
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 3: under in the first two months of do.

286
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,120

287
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 3: Oh, we got and we basically have to kill like

288
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 3: five minutes. We could try to go through some if

289
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 3: you want.

290
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: Why do we do that? Yeah, A pst is it's legendary.

291
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: It started all those years ago. How it started. I

292
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: was thumbing through fish ref factory east side Charlie Walters,

293
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: who did a Sid Hartman like column, you know, just

294
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: a lot like a notes column, and we I was

295
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: sifting through it one day and he he said, this

296
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: was this was Shooter his nickname a Shooter. He said

297
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: that he wouldn't trade one Al Jefferson for two Kevin Garnett's.

298
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: That's how good he thought Al Jefferson was. I said, well,

299
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: that's the most preposterous thing I've ever heard. And then

300
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: I said we should start collecting preposterous statements and we did.

301
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: And then you said, woo, why don't we do a

302
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: March Madness like turn with ps ts and voila. We did,

303
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: and it's been literally there was a time Cove said

304
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: it was the greatest segment, sister. Now he's put a

305
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: funny officials game is number one. Then that's followed he said,

306
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: my program password so in his mind's.

307
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 2: Two of the three are on this show.

308
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the pst is is plummeted to third. I would

309
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 1: think it's more like maybe the ninth or tenth best thing.

310
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: I think snow Namis is big. Uh, Nordo's rap is

311
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:39,159
Speaker 1: really really good. And then doesn't Sauce do does he

312
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: do something special other than just say I think he does,

313
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: like he does the sports updates or something. Sure, so

314
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: those are to me the most the biggest things on

315
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: the radio station. That's why we are who we are.

316
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 2: The morning showed us.

317
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: Well, that's that's it, That's that's I guess I should

318
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 1: have just said it that way. But let's go ahead.

319
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 2: You want to do some nominees for Let's.

320
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: Do some nominees and I I I nominee.

321
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 3: A voice you're gonna be hearing soon because he's in

322
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 3: the Dok duo with a chance to win the Proposter

323
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 3: Jaman Tournament. Kendrick Perkins is already back for next year

324
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 3: because he compared himself to Victor Webbin Yama.

325
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: It's real quick.

326
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: Victor went with Yambo.

327
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,199
Speaker 6: He refused to let us put them in the box

328
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 6: right like people was complaining that we want him to

329
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 6: go more inside. But he took those trade balls yesterday

330
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 6: and he's knocking them down. He's a prime example of

331
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 6: me while everybody else is going because while everybody else

332
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 6: is going right.

333
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: I typically go left, and that's what he does.

334
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 7: Victor Webbin Yama is the prime example of Kendrick Perko.

335
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: That is not a sentence. I thought I would hear

336
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: this Friday, but I am oh so happy that I

337
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 1: did see. Even they know it's preposterous.

338
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 2: Uh.

339
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 3: And last year's champion has been nominated again. Draymond Green

340
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: won the Proposer's Taman Tournament last year. Uh. He thinks

341
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 3: Derrick Rose is basically the most important person in Chicago.

342
00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: Man, shout out to d Rose.

343
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 8: Have his number one retire in Chicago, by the bulls.

344
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 8: What d Rose means to the city of Chicago not

345
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 8: meant means to the city of Chicago. There's not one

346
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 8: bigger person than the city of Chicago. Let's make no

347
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 8: mistake about it. You heard what I say. There is

348
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,959
Speaker 8: not one bigger person that means more to the city

349
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 8: of Chicago than Derreck Rose.

350
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,160
Speaker 1: With all due respect to MJ, I love HIMJ.

351
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 8: We all wanted to be like Mike doesn't mean more

352
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 8: to the city of Chicago than Derrick Rose.

353
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: Well, you know, remember that hair brained idea I had

354
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: about just eliminating the national figures for PST. Those two

355
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: right there. You can especially the laughing by Draymond. I mean, yeah,

356
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 1: I know you people. People will send it, h a

357
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: PST nominee to me. It'll say, and the tournament, here's

358
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 1: your winner. Because there's so that's got a chance to

359
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: win the whole thing right there. That's so good.

360
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 2: One more, yeah, for sure.

361
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 3: Another guy who was all over this last year's tournament,

362
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 3: Cam Newton basically thinks that Notre Dame football hasn't been relevant.

363
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 2: In a long time, even though they won the national championship.

364
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 2: Just what a year ago, Bunt Nordre Dame.

365
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 9: And I'm gonna tell you this, Well, you're starting to

366
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 9: think about all these different things that the preferential treatment

367
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 9: that Notre Dame has gotten, we'll get and.

368
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 2: Will continue to get. That's why I'm like, butt Nordre Dame.

369
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 9: It comes down to a point where now you're starting

370
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 9: to say, Cam, you bidder SEC is dead?

371
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 2: That's cool?

372
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: Oh man, whatever Notre Dame is. Notre Dame hasn't been

373
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 1: relevant in years.

374
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 7: They were just in the National Championship game one year ago.

375
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: Relevant for years.

376
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 10: You take that one that you take that one National

377
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 10: championship with coach Freeman out of the equation, they have

378
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 10: not been relevant this basis.

379
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 3: Oh, Cam, are we ready?

380
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: It's too bad he doesn't have the money. Then he

381
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't need a job and he wouldn't have to go

382
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: through the prosper statements like that. But because he lost

383
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: all of his money, He's got eight kids and that

384
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 1: money wasn't around any He ain't superman now he's got

385
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 1: to work for a living. So that's unfortunate for all

386
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: us or fortune are.

387
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:19,840

399
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:42,520

474
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 1: A couple thirteen fourteen pastime comedies tend to be. Text

475
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 1: message came in just shortly after we have crowned a

476
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: new champion for PST. This one PST triple V Triple

477
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,239
Speaker 1: I that says our politicians excluded from the PST. They

478
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 1: are now they for a time they weren't, but we've decided.

479
00:26:55,080 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: I'm so, I've tuned in, turned on, dropped out the

480
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: whole political process in this country. So I doesn't do

481
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: anything for me. Plus, it's just.

482
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, people also have done for some reason, don't have

483
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 3: the ability to filter out when someone on their side

484
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 3: says something stupid, so they just get outraged for no reason.

485
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 3: We're if the statement doesn't even have anything new with

486
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 3: anything political.

487
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 1: Right, A lunatic liberal will be upset. If you nominated

488
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: a lunatic liberal, crackpock conservative will be upset. A few

489
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: nominated crackpock conservative. And so it just doesn't do us

490
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 1: any good.

491
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 2: These days, the whole bracket would be just political faure.

492
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, trust me, it would be. So we do not

493
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 1: We do not do that anymore. I received a couple

494
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 1: thirteen fourteen text messages, at least six seven asking me

495
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: what I thought about the news that you know. I

496
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: was born in Detroit, I mean Detroit Lions fan MotorCity kidties.

497
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,439
Speaker 1: It's not illegal to have two favorite teams. I do

498
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lines in the Minnesota Vikings. I know that's

499
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: hard for some people to grasp and hard for people

500
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:58,400
Speaker 1: to wrap their arms around and say, well, how can

501
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: you do that, especially when they're both in the divisions,

502
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: because I don't care as much. It's not it's it's living.

503
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 1: Let die with me. Oh, by the way. The McCartney

504
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: and wings Man on the Run uh documentary. I watched

505
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 1: it on Saturday and I was really good. Really yeah,

506
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: I was really good. If I mean, if you're a

507
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 1: Beatles fan like Paul McCartney, and you know what's interesting

508
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: is I was I like wings you know when they

509
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 1: when they McCartney released a solo album just called McCartney

510
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: and it was kind of panned. And what I didn't

511
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: realize is he did it. When the Beatles broke up,

512
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: he and his wife, Linda Eastman moved to Scotland and

513
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: they lived in literally a ramshackle, beaten down farmhouse and

514
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: raised like chickens and goats and alley fans and unicorns

515
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: and everything. And he recorded the thing like in he

516
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: just one like he had an amp and he just

517
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: plugged in and it got the album. I think it's

518
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: really good, be honest, but he got pained for it.

519
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: Then after Band on the Run, which is I still

520
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: think it's probably the most successful out my kind of loss.

521
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: That is yeah, you know, started moving out with my life.

522
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,239
Speaker 1: But when they but after watching the documentary, I had

523
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: forgotten that there was there were there are plenty of

524
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: there's plenty of good music from McCartney and Wings after

525
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: after a Band on the Run, so it was very good.

526
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 1: Why did I start talking about that?

527
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 2: No idea?

528
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: What was I going to get to? Oh Detroit? I'm

529
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: a Detroit Lions fan. So just a number of people said,

530
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 1: what did you think about the trade announced today? No

531
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: more Sonic and Knuckles Knuckles has been traded.

532
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 7: That would be.

533
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 1: David Montgomery. You know what I noticed about Montgomery He

534
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 1: looked really fast this year. And then I finally figured

535
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 1: out why he wears number five. When you wear one,

536
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: when you have a uniform in just a single digit,

537
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: you look much faster. I mean I started confusing him

538
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: with Sonic. I started thinking about this guy's Oh that's

539
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 1: not so. I got snuckles story from CBS Sports says

540
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: that he was traded to the Texans. He says the

541
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,479
Speaker 1: trade is an effort by the Texans to boost their

542
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: backfield after last season the mediocre showing, and Montgomery presents

543
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: a higher ceiling than the team has had in recent

544
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: years at that position. As for the Lions, a divorce

545
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 1: seemed to be on the horizon after some rumblings about

546
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:29,479
Speaker 1: Montgomery possibly wanting out. He's denied that, along with Detroit

547
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: GM Brad Holmes saying that quote, a player has to

548
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: want to be in a certain place. When speaking about

549
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: Monty's situation, he goes to the Texans. The Lions get

550
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: a fourth round pick, a seventh round pick, an offensive lineman,

551
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 1: Juice Scrugs. Of course they grade the trade. They get way. Yeah.

552
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 1: They give the Lions of being minus. They give Houston

553
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 1: a B. Here's what it says about the Scrugs kid.

554
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: Scruggs is a worthwhile dice rule to add to the

555
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: competition along the offensive line to see if he sticks.

556
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 1: Scruggs was a second round picking twenty twenty three out

557
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: of Penn State and could be in the mix to

558
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: be the team's new starting center, where he played in

559
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: college and during the first year of his career. Houston

560
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: demoted Scruggs last season to a rotational depth piece along

561
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: the interior. So anytime a team drafts a guy in

562
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: the second round, you think got to be pretty good, right,

563
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: and I guess he's been okay. But then when you

564
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: get demoted and they go, you know what, I don't

565
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: think center, starting center with the Houston Texans is really

566
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 1: your calling, and so we're just going to bounce you

567
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: around on the offensive line. So then you say, well,

568
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: do they know something the Lions don't? Probably, or maybe

569
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: the Lions know all about it. And you know, sometimes

570
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: changes the scenery, it changes an attitude, changes in the latitude.

571
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: Like I mean, I don't like get rid of Montgomery,

572
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: though I liked him a lot. I liked their combination run.

573
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: I liked him today they signed him because i'd washed

574
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: him play for Chicago, and I know he doesn't. He's

575
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: not a fantasy football favorite because that's not the kind

576
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: of player he is. He's not getting you know, he's

577
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 1: not going to get your twelve totties. He's not going

578
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: to get you a lot of one hundred yard games, but.

579
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 3: He does the dirty Montgomery. Yeah, he actually would get

580
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 3: you twelve totties. Yeah, that's one of his strengths as

581
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 3: a fantasy FOOTBA guy because he a lot of short lines.

582
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 1: So then I guess he is good fantasy football, but

583
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 1: he's he's not one of those, you know, game breaking

584
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: kind of guys like you have with Junior Gibbs. I

585
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: just liked the combination of the two. It was he

586
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: it was a nice change of change of pace, got

587
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: the tough yards for Detroit, could catch the ball out

588
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: of the backfield. They know better than I, I guess,

589
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: And you know whether he really wanted to be I

590
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,719
Speaker 1: don't think he was happy with his usage. He had

591
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: had less. I think his carries went down pretty significantly,

592
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, so he I think he wanted out.

593
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,239
Speaker 1: But they need help on the offensive line. They need

594
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 1: a lot of help. They they've lost guys to retirement,

595
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: guys to free agency. Well apparently I think Decker said

596
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: he's he is going to come back and play one

597
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: more year. So that's good news for them. Even though

598
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: he's he's taken a beating throughout most of his career.

599
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 1: And you know, whether he still has that the ability

600
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: to play at the level he once did. I don't know,

601
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: but I think that's it was maybe and Gibbs is

602
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: so good it's I mean, I think it's probably crazy

603
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: to say Gibbs is the best back in the National

604
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 1: Football League.

605
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 2: I think you can argue that, but I think you

606
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 2: could argue yes, yeah.

607
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 3: Well, that's the thing is jamiir Is this offseason is

608
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 3: entering the year where you either have to sign him

609
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 3: to an extension or pick up his fifth year option.

610
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 3: Either way, his price tags going up. Even if you

611
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 3: just pick up his option for next season, he's going

612
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 3: to go up to fourteen point two million dollars. I'm

613
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 3: guessing if you signed him to a contract extension, which

614
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 3: you'd want to do because I think he's top three

615
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 3: running back in the NFL, he's probably gonna be making

616
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,800
Speaker 3: fifteen ish plus million dollars a year, fifteen to twenty,

617
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:14,240
Speaker 3: maybe closer to twenty.

618
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 2: So his price takes a bucke ups. You just you

619
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 2: can only throw so much money.

620
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 3: Well, despite what you think, you can only throw so

621
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 3: much money at your running back position.

622
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 1: Right, so you.

623
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 3: Keep the valuable one in Jamier Gibbs because he is

624
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 3: so it was explosive. And you hope you can replace

625
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:36,280
Speaker 3: David Montgomery with a cheaper option or just give Jamier

626
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,959
Speaker 3: Gibbs of ball a lot more, which.

627
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: Sounds good on paper, and if you can. I mean, yeah,

628
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: he had one hundred and fifty eight carries last year

629
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,959
Speaker 1: for one for seven hundred and sixteen rushing yards, eight

630
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 1: tuddies over seventeen games, despite now starting a game. He

631
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: also had twenty four receptions for one hundred and ninety

632
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:07,439
Speaker 1: two yards. Those are year before. He had a few

633
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: more yards seven hundred and seventy five. He had.

634
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 2: In double digit duschdowns away.

635
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, twelve tuddies last year in fourteen games. But yeah,

636
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 1: you know, you're right. You can only you know, pay

637
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 1: the position. I guess only so much. And I mean

638
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: the fourth round pick is nice. I mean you accumulating

639
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: draft picks is always good, I think, and I know

640
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 1: that you can get really good players in the fourth, fifth, sixth,

641
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 1: seventh round. Hell, you can get undrafted free agents and

642
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,359
Speaker 1: it'd be a Hall of famers. We've had him here,

643
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: you know, so it can happen. So I I guess

644
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: I don't mind.

645
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 3: I I guess he's also twenty eight years old, and

646
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 3: that there does come a point where running backs sometimes

647
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 3: can get up to that range and start falling off

648
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,879
Speaker 3: the cliff. True, it might be good to get out

649
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 3: from under them while you can, just from a financial standpoint,

650
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 3: but also sell them before he falls apart.

651
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: Well, then he does take it's some value for him.

652
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 1: He's he's he's one of those tough runners. He gets

653
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 1: the tough yards too, So yeah, you get you get

654
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: pounded pretty good. That's my only fear with giving the

655
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,720
Speaker 1: ball to Gibbs more when Deuce and I are watching

656
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 1: Deuce does this all the time. Gibbs will get the ball,

657
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 1: he'll get like eight, ten, twelve yards, and then there'll

658
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: be some guys start to hit him and he'll go down,

659
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 1: Go down, go down, because he's just panicked that he's

660
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 1: going to get, you know, in that And that's what

661
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,319
Speaker 1: happens to those guys. They get put in that position where

662
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 1: they're getting hit up high, then someone hits them lower,

663
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: their knee just gets tornish resident he's out for the season.

664
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 1: So that's always your fear anytime of running back, because

665
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:35,359
Speaker 1: at least it is for me. You hold your brother

666
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: no matter who it is no matter what you know,

667
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 1: every run because you know it could be just one

668
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 1: plane and it's over, especially with the running back positions.

669
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 3: So and Houston, on the other hand, their running back

670
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 3: situation last year was just one of the worst in

671
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 3: the league. Yeah, Joe Mixon never played it down. He

672
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 3: was shurt before the season. And then you know they

673
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 3: were dependent on a mediocre rookie running back in what

674
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 3: he marks and you know you have to playoffs, and

675
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 3: especially once you started started getting into cold weather situations,

676
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 3: they could.

677
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 2: Not run in the ball effectively. Yeah, and then C. J.

678
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 3: Stroud was putting bad spots and then was not Executingah.

679
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, he looked just in that playoff. Yeah, I geinst

680
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: the Patriots, Yes, of course. And was the weather bad

681
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,959
Speaker 1: in that game? It was wasn't No, I don't remember.

682
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 2: It was definitely Chilli. I don't know, I don't remember.

683
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't.

684
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 8: No.

685
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 2: It was the the Denver one that had.

686
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 1: Champion that had the horrible weather. So we talked Vikings earlier.

687
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: I guess we can pick up on that again. We

688
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 1: were reading from a piece from Alec Lewis and and

689
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 1: he's not alone here. Everybody seems we were there were

690
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 1: actually some reports from Medium members at least one, if

691
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 1: not a couple from the Combine that said the Vikings

692
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 1: were actively shopping JJ McCarthy, not just looking for competition,

693
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,879
Speaker 1: competition or a quality backup or something, that they were

694
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: actually shopping him. And good luck with that. I mean,

695
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: I you know, look, I don't I'll do the old

696
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: courtroom cliche. You know the jury is still out, because

697
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: I think it is, though I think it's probably just

698
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: you know, they always say one juror could be a holdout.

699
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 1: Eleven of agreed the guy's guilty, and there's one guy

700
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 1: that will I wait a minute now, I'm not so sure,

701
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: and he then it turns into a hung jury. I

702
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 1: think there's probably more jurists that think McCarthy ain't the guy.

703
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: But and for me, a lot of it does have

704
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:47,480
Speaker 1: to do with the health.

705
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 8: You know.

706
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 1: The reason I don't just jump all over all these

707
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: injury prone is because sometimes it is I think, just

708
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: bad luck.

709
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 8: Right.

710
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,320
Speaker 1: The knee thing, A lot of guys get their knee torn, insureds,

711
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 1: a lot of guys get an ankle spray. What was

712
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 1: his other two? He had the hairline fraction and concussion. Yeah,

713
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 1: he had he had a hairline fracture in his thumb

714
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: or something and then a concussion. So is it is

715
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 1: he injury prone or is it just bad luck. I

716
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: guess if you just go by how long he's been

717
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: in the league, how many games that he would be

718
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 1: eligible for if he wasn't injured, and how many he played,

719
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 1: I guess you'd call him injury prone. But I sometimes

720
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,919
Speaker 1: think that can just be that can just be bad luck.

721
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if you're looking at injury prone

722
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 1: athletes in this town, you look at Byron Buxton, right,

723
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,320
Speaker 1: he spent Does he spent as much time on injured

724
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: listen he has on the field, And I'm being serious,

725
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 1: I think it's probably close. Last year was his the

726
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 1: healthiest year I think he's had maybe ever, other than

727
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: one year, the one year he played one hundred and

728
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 1: forty games and he had his best season. Was he

729
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: close to one hundred and forty last year? I think

730
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,439
Speaker 1: he was, and he had his best, maybe his best

731
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 1: season ever or amongst them for sure. And you know, again,

732
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: I don't remember all of his he played last year

733
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 1: twenty six, and I don't remember all of his injuries

734
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 1: over the year. Sometimes I see when they were just

735
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 1: he was smashed into a wall and he'd be out

736
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,920
Speaker 1: for a few weeks because he was you know, you

737
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: and I had that discussion about sometimes the old is

738
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: the discretion the better part of valor or you just say, gosh,

739
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 1: we're getting crushed eight to two, here's the eighth inning.

740
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: Why slamming into the wall to rob a guy? Know,

741
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 1: because you play every play to the very end, Well,

742
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: sometimes you just shouldn't, you know, And so so I

743
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 1: don't know if McCarthy could have a complete year. But

744
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. Did I read this is he right now?

745
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: I think I read one of those stories. I don't

746
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 1: know if it was if it was in in the

747
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: Athletic or if it wasn't one of these others that

748
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,919
Speaker 1: said he's only working with some quarterback gurgle guy that's

749
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,319
Speaker 1: supposed to be really good. I can't recall the name,

750
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: but he's you know, he has some company, you know,

751
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: QB one do X or something, I don't know what

752
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 1: it's called. And he's supposed to be really good. So there,

753
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,919
Speaker 1: you know, he's working on it. But and he's young.

754
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,879
Speaker 1: But if you're we're still working, you know, I.

755
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 3: I well, during the season what we'd heard is like

756
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,280
Speaker 3: the mechanics, right, he's got to lie in his eyes

757
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,920
Speaker 3: and his feet and blah blahlah blah.

758
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,720
Speaker 2: But then after the season when you hear.

759
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 3: Basically they shortened the playbook as the season went along

760
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 3: because he wasn't grasping the playbook. They didn't want to

761
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,399
Speaker 3: have him thrown routes over the middle. That's when I knew, though,

762
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 3: this is a bigger this is a bigger little uh issue.

763
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 3: More yeah, bigger issue than what they've they've let on.

764
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 3: And I think they're just going to move on from him,

765
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 3: do you think so?

766
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 8: Well?

767
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:56,879
Speaker 2: I mean hold on, I guess.

768
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 3: I don't mean move on from him in terms of

769
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 3: like they're just gonna cut up them or trade them,

770
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 3: but that they are.

771
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 2: They're finding a different starting quarterback.

772
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: This year, So you don't think they'll be even a competition,

773
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:10,879
Speaker 1: you don't.

774
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 3: I think whoever they signed will be the starting quarterback

775
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 3: or sign or trade for really, But even that, like

776
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 3: the names that have been thrown out, the names that

777
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 3: have been thrown out this weekend are now different than

778
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 3: the names we're catching a week ago, and a week

779
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 3: from now, we might hear different names, right, The big

780
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 3: ones coming out this weekend was it sounds like Gino

781
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 3: Smith and Kyler Murray. A week ago we were hearing

782
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins right. Derek Carr's name has been thrown out before,

783
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 3: so who knows how long these names will last.

784
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 2: But there's a.

785
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: What is SB Nation? Are they legit? I see them

786
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 1: all the time.

787
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,359
Speaker 3: I think they started as one of those agger get

788
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 3: okay type, and I don't know if they still are.

789
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:01,320
Speaker 2: I've never really gone to their, say, Yahoo's.

790
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: Sports SB Nation. I think they're all kind of rolled

791
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:12,719
Speaker 1: into one. And there's a story from Warren Ludford. And

792
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: again I don't know. I don't want to just dismiss

793
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:21,240
Speaker 1: Warren Ludford because he's with SB Nation, Yahoo Sports whatever.

794
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: I don't know how plugged an he is then and

795
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 1: again I always have the suspicion that some people throw

796
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 1: stuff out there just to throw stuff out. But he

797
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 1: writes a pretty in depth piece about the Vikings quarterback situation,

798
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: and it says one of the more provocative rumors circulating

799
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 1: around the NFL Combine this past week is at the

800
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings have soured on McCarthy and may even be

801
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: pursuing an exit strategy with the first round pick, and

802
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 1: it sounds like you think that's probably what they're doing

803
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: as well. Tony Pauline reports that the Vikings are quote

804
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 1: quietly pursuing I don't know who Tony Pauline is. He's

805
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: not the writer of this. Maybe you could google Tony

806
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,560
Speaker 1: Pauline and see who the hell he is, but it

807
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 1: says he's reported the Bikings are quietly pursuing an exit

808
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 1: strategy for McCarthy. He also reports that the consensus view

809
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 1: at the combine is that the Vikings are looking for

810
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,440
Speaker 1: a new starting quarterback, and we'll bring in a new

811
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: quarterback to compete and eventually replace McCarthy as their starting quarterback.

812
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: Matthew Berry with NBC Sports.

813
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 2: Is a fantasy football game, okay.

814
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: Matthew Berry with NBC Sports reports that rumors at the

815
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 1: combine suggest that the Vikings are not high and McCarthy

816
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,839
Speaker 1: will bring in serious competition for him. I don't think

817
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: that's just a rumor. I don't think they're that high

818
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: on him. Vikings acting GM Rob Brazinski said in an

819
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 1: interview during the combine, the Bikings are exploring all possibilities.

820
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: Vikings head coach Kevin o'connells asked whether he still viewed

821
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 1: McCarthy as the Vikings franchise quarterbacks. It's just the timeline

822
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 1: is a different place. We talked about that when you

823
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,800
Speaker 1: first drafted him. Yeah, he's your franchise quarterback. Now a

824
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 1: couple of years are moved in, four injuries, and now

825
00:44:55,760 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 1: it's like we're not in the same spot anymore. And

826
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: then there's there's some other things let's do. Let's take

827
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: a break, because I think this is worth exploring. There

828
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,839
Speaker 1: seems to be some differences of opinion among the people

829
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: that follow the Vikings on the who, what, why, where

830
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 1: and when on H. McCarthy, Donald, et cetera. We'll we'll

831
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: tackle that on the other side of the break here

832
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 1: on the comment Man program of the FANH
