Did I see the forecast corrector we 12 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 4: expected to get significant amount of snow? 13 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 5: I don't know about significant in the metro area. I 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 5: think we'll get some. I think it's all kind of 15 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 5: starts tonight tomorrow morning. I think the northern part of 16 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 5: the northern suburbs and reaching up towards Malaxic cetera expected 17 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 5: to get more with the warm the grounds so warm, 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 5: I'm not quite sure how much it's going to stay. 19 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 5: That's true too, you know, but it's so I mean, 20 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 5: I was sitting in the in the corner's office looking 21 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,479 Speaker 5: out on Hire one hundred. Even this time of day, 22 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 5: it's already bumper a bumper, as they say, going uh 23 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 5: south on, which is not unusual. 24 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 4: I think a winter is arriving because it just temperature wise, 25 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 4: where we've been, we've been very blessed. 26 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 1: It's been in the fourth I played golf again today. 27 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 6: I saw that. I saw that those days are gone 28 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 6: for a while now. 29 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 4: Yea, since we last talked, the Golphers weren't unable to 30 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 4: move the needle. 31 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: They lost in Northwestern. 32 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 4: The Vikings lose to Green Bay, and the the The 33 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 4: young uh QB's performance was as dreadful as ever, and 34 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 4: then he gets his bell wrong late in the game. 35 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 4: He feels like he's got concussion symptoms. He's in the protocol. 36 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: Doesn't look like you'll play uh so, Brosma will be 37 00:01:58,520 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: the guy. 38 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 5: Your thoughts well, I mean, I I think it came. 39 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 5: Was a little surprised when Chaos announced it yesterday. I 40 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 5: remember watching that play when McCarthy broke the pocket, ran 41 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 5: about I don't know seven eight yards and got hit 42 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 5: and then got one of the packers on top of 43 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 5: me because he his head kind of bounced off the turf. 44 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 5: Hawkinson immediately grabbed him and pulled him up, and you know, 45 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 5: kind of got him back in the huddle. You know, 46 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 5: you think to yourself, you know, I don't. I don't 47 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 5: think it necessarily effect Well, we don't ever know JJ McCarthy, 48 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 5: but I don't think it effective in the rest of 49 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 5: the game. But apparently, as we all know by now, 50 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 5: he complained about some symptoms on the on the way 51 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 5: home and went in the protocol. 52 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 6: And you know, we'll know a lot more tomorrow. 53 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 5: But I think odds are that we're gonna see Brozemer 54 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 5: play for the first time this Sunday, and the kid obviously, 55 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 5: I mean, if he needs a mental break more than 56 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 5: the physical break. But something's got to change a little bit, 57 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 5: and maybe Max Brosman will get a chance to. 58 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 4: You say, we're gonna see Brosman for the first time. 59 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 4: Do you think we've seen McCarthy for the last time? 60 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 6: And I don't think so. 61 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 5: No, I mean, unless it's a really serious concussion, I 62 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 5: think they. 63 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: They never want to play him again. 64 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, they're gonna want to trot him 65 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 5: out there. 66 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 6: I think I think they have to. I know, you don't. 67 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 5: You can say they have to, they don't have to, Yeah, 68 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 5: they don't, But I don't know unless you know an 69 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 5: undrafted free agent decides to you know, kind of light 70 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 5: it up, and you know, obviously this would be a 71 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 5: baptism by fire. Playing in one of the toughest road 72 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 5: venues in the NFL against a really good football team 73 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 5: right now, and not just what he's not facing Sam Darnold. 74 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 5: He's facing that Seahawks defense, and he's gonna have his 75 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 5: hands full. But I think we'll see what Brozemer does 76 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 5: better right now is get the ball out of his hands. 77 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 5: And whether it's you know, seven yard completions or something, 78 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 5: I think it's just his timing. Will I think we'll 79 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 5: maybe hopefully notice an uptick because you know, we've all 80 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 5: watched it and I've seen this team play since forever. 81 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 5: I don't recall it a quarterback where you're just kind 82 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 5: of going, I don't know if he can complete a 83 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 5: ten yard out. I just he When he does, you 84 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 5: just kind of go, oh my god. They just did 85 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 5: that as far as you know, going down the field. 86 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 5: And we watch other NFL games and I guess you 87 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 5: can harken back to the Lions game and you look, 88 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 5: you know, the Vikings beat the Lions in Detroit. The 89 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 5: defense had a lot to do with it. But McCarthy 90 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 5: did all right. I mean it wasn't burn up the numbers, 91 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 5: but you know, you want to have that kind of 92 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 5: as a stepping point to moving on to the rest 93 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 5: of the season with the ups and downs of a 94 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 5: first year quarterback, and it's just gone backwards. We've seen 95 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 5: that in particular at home, so there's just nothing to 96 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 5: kind of rally around to say, you know, bo Nick's 97 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 5: had some ups and downs last year, and a lot 98 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 5: of the other first year quarterbacks did you know, and 99 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 5: but he hasn't had many ups and it's just there's 100 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 5: no there's no level of consistency right now. But I 101 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 5: think the Vikings have got to play it out for 102 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 5: their own good. I don't know what else you do 103 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 5: unless you say we're dumb with were not. They're not 104 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 5: done of them. They're gonna He's gonna have to play 105 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 5: and and you know they have some on paper, they 106 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,679 Speaker 5: have some winnable games that the you know, the defense 107 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 5: can do its part and keep them in the game. 108 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 5: And we saw the koc was approaching last week's game 109 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 5: of a much more conservative approach with the running game, 110 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 5: which was working well early and you know they're keeping 111 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 5: him of the game, even at halftime. It was a 112 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 5: ten to six game at halftime. That's kind of what 113 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 5: you want to be and now you need to kind 114 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 5: of get a break. And then we saw, you know 115 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 5: what happened with the special teams, and then the game, 116 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 5: you know, soon as became a two score game, it 117 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 5: was over. I mean, that's a well you just have 118 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 5: to wait and see. But no, I don't think McCarthy's 119 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 5: done this year. I think unless there's something really really serious, 120 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 5: he's going to be back out there. And I think 121 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 5: they want to see him complete the season. What happens 122 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 5: after this year, you know, I mean the game plans, 123 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 5: you know. 124 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 4: What if he starts in the next three starts, he 125 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 4: gets worse and worse, and where do they keep playing 126 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 4: until the end of the season. 127 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 5: I don't know how to answer that common I mean, 128 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 5: I really don't at this point because that was about 129 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 5: his dreadful performance. I've seen, you know, a lack of confidence, 130 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 5: a lack of anything that from a quarterback, you know, 131 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 5: in a long time, and you can throw all the 132 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 5: quarterbacks in the hat and say yeah, and I'm going 133 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 5: we all understand that there's there's a growing period and 134 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 5: that we get it. But I talked about with you 135 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 5: last week, and so there's this something just not right 136 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 5: right now. I mean, his whether it's the mechanics, he's 137 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 5: thinking too much. I had talked to someone who just 138 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 5: said he's so cerebral. He's just he's thinking him way 139 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 5: out of out of you know, out of just reacting 140 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 5: as a quarterback. You know, like you can have a 141 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 5: thousand different film sessions and meetings and practices on the 142 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 5: on your own home turf at home at TCO. It's 143 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 5: not you can't simulate game situations. So I don't know 144 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 5: what to say unless the guy he's either going to 145 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 5: be a complete bust or he'll get better at some point. 146 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 5: But organization can't wait that long. And you've talked about 147 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 5: it many times. It's not fair to the you know, 148 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 5: the guys who are out there in their own contracts 149 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 5: and trying to win football games. This team won thirteen 150 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 5: games last year, and now you're looking at you know, 151 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 5: you're missing the playoffs, and you know, looking at I 152 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 5: don't know, seven maybe seven wins. You know, I don't 153 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 5: know who knows. It doesn't matter, but you want to 154 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 5: see some incremental improvement from this kid. And you know, 155 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 5: whether it's against the Giants, whether it's against Washington. But 156 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 5: you know we've seen the home games. I mean the 157 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 5: Bears game here. I mean, I was shocking that the 158 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 5: Vikings were able to score in the last minute take 159 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 5: the lead, and he threw a touchdown pass to Addison 160 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 5: and he goes, are the Vikings really going to win 161 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 5: this game? And then the special teams let him down. 162 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 5: But that still wasn't enough to kind of say, Okay, 163 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 5: he's figured it out. He hasn't figured anything out yet. 164 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 5: So I don't know if there's an answer to that 165 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 5: question other than the fact that, yes, I think they'll 166 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 5: play McCarthy when he's healthy. 167 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 4: It seems to me, and I've said this on a 168 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 4: number of occasions now and I'll say it again, I 169 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 4: think they woefully misjudged how prepared McCarthy would be. And 170 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 4: I don't know if part of that is ego with 171 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 4: the quarterback whisperer. And I know he doesn't like to 172 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 4: be called that, but he takes pride in his ability 173 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 4: to coach up. 174 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: Quarterbacks. 175 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 4: And remember they were coming off the thirteen and four seas. 176 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 4: They could have resigned sam Donold, who played extremely well 177 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 4: we know he had the bad game against Detroit, The 178 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 4: Rams game, I think had a lot more to do 179 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 4: with how bad the offensive line protected him. They decided 180 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 4: they didn't want to spend that kind of money on him. 181 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 4: They let Danny Dimes leave the building because he knew 182 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 4: they were going to go with McCarthy, and they rebuffed 183 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 4: any advances from Aaron Rodgers. And I think the coach thought, 184 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 4: I got this, I'll coach this kid up. 185 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: I like what I see him. 186 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 4: It hasn't worked to this point at all in any way, 187 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 4: shape or form. And you talk about you would hope 188 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 4: by the time you get to the NFL the mechanics 189 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 4: aren't the problem. It's just it's diving into the playbook 190 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 4: and learning the nuances of the NFL feil on the 191 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 4: speed of it, not like aligning your feet and your 192 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 4: eyes anymore. 193 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: So, I don't know's. 194 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 5: That's the point that it has been made over and 195 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 5: over again. It's you're like watching a fledgling freshman in 196 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 5: college trying to figure things out right now, and it 197 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 5: just doesn't pass the eye test at all as an 198 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 5: NFL quarterback. And that's the thing that hopefully Macarthy he 199 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 5: has to figure it out. The coaching staff has to 200 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 5: figure it out otherwise it's going to set this franchise 201 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 5: back and they're going to be starting over again by 202 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 5: signing another veteran next year, going after someone else. I 203 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 5: don't know how you make that decision and when. I 204 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 5: don't think it's going to happen after this year. But 205 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 5: they're playing with fire right now. 206 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 4: Oh well, we'll talk more Vikings and other topics as well, 207 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 4: including the wolves, the wild, and the golfers and so 208 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 4: much more here on the Common Man Program with common 209 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 4: Man Blake Moore and Mark ros and here on the Fan. 210 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 2: He's a nice challenge ess or just made learning fun.

It's it's the least of our worries 221 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: right now. 222 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 4: I just got a text from Sauce as you're not 223 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 4: listening to Rosen Well, No, I wasn't well. 224 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 1: I was kind of listening with half of you. 225 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 6: I saw Sauce with Louis. 226 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: I was sort of listening. I asked dark Shar would say, 227 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: I really wasn't listening. I was sporting for my turn 228 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: to talk. 229 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 6: We all do that. 230 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 1: I always love that one. 231 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 4: I'm interested to see how Brosemore plays. It'll be you 232 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 4: know again, it is a very difficult situation. You're playing 233 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 4: a very good Seattle team with a very good defense. 234 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 4: Sam Darnold, let's face it, I think there'll be a 235 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 4: chip on his shoulder a little bit. 236 00:10:59,200 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: I don't know this. 237 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 4: I've not heard him say it, but my guess he 238 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,319 Speaker 4: would have was more than willing. 239 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: To resign here, and the Vikings didn't want him. 240 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 4: And so he's he probably thought, oh, not good enough 241 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 4: for you, huh. So I'm sure he'll have some extra 242 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 4: added incentive. Sada's in the playoff mix. I don't know 243 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 4: if Darrisol plays or not. Was was he the ankle 244 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 4: or was that Jonah Jackstony each I think he had 245 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 4: an ankle injury in Jackson did as well. 246 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: Both of them left the game. 247 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 4: They might not have the left side of the of 248 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 4: their of their offensive line, and they'll have a rookie, 249 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 4: undrafted free agent quarterback making his professional debut as a starter. 250 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 5: Uh. 251 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 4: Again on the road against a really good team with 252 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 4: a good defense and a quarterback that's probably got a 253 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 4: little chip on his shoulder. 254 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: It's gonna be uh, it's gonna be a difficult situation. 255 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: What's that? 256 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 5: They just heard the chip on the shoulder thing? He's 257 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 5: pros pro understands that. I think Donald fully understood. No, no, 258 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 5: But I'm just saying he understood. Yeah, Well, listen, we're 259 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 5: gonna go with the rookie. 260 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 4: Uh. 261 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 5: I don't want to compete. I don't want to be 262 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 5: a backup. I don't want to be a backup here 263 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 5: Danny Jones's situation. Obviously, that's why I went to the Colts, 264 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 5: I think. 265 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 4: But there's a professional pride, no, of course, but they 266 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 4: Sam Darnold put up numbers that were brilliant. 267 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: He took the team to the playoffs, and and. 268 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 4: All of a sudden, they say they basically said that's 269 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 4: not good enough. We're not giving you one hundred million dollars. 270 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 4: You can go elsewhere, so you probably want Oh, I 271 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 4: know that's how I oh, I'm not good enough for you. Huh. Okay, Well, 272 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 4: I think there's a chip on the shoulder. Sure he 273 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 4: understands its business. I guarantee he wants to take. 274 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: It to the vikingside. 275 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 6: I'm sure he does. That's what I'm saying. 276 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm just saying that I think there's an added 277 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 4: incentive for him. 278 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: I believe. Oh, I don't think there's any doubt. I 279 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: don't know that. Maybe not, but I would. 280 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 4: Think I'm just trying to put all the different things 281 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 4: that are working against brosemerg on on on. 282 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 5: He's going to have his hands full at that and 283 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 5: then that's you know, again, it's not one hundred percent 284 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 5: because he we have McCarthy hasn't officially been diagnosed with 285 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 5: the concussion, but all signs point towards if he's not 286 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 5: even close to one hundred percent, And you know, people 287 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 5: talk about a soft benching and everything. I think he 288 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 5: legitimately got got dinged and got hurt, and if he's 289 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 5: not feeling well, well, then you know, I think the 290 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 5: smart thing might be, you know, look here, we're gonna throw. 291 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 6: Him to the Wolves again out in Seattle. 292 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 5: If you think what was happened in Green Bay was bad, 293 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 5: at least the first half was competitive. Man, don't I 294 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 5: don't see that even being the same in Seattle against 295 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 5: that team, that offense and the way that they're rolling 296 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 5: right now. The Vikings defense has got enough to worry 297 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 5: about forgetting about who the quarterback is. For the Vikings 298 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 5: to try to contain Donald and that offense that's very explosive. 299 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 5: And that NFC West, I mean, with the Rams looking 300 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 5: like super Bowl super Bowl team, the leading super Bowl 301 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,719 Speaker 5: team right now, you know, the forty nine ers have 302 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 5: managed to kind of cobble things together. They're getting little healthier, 303 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 5: They're always going to be a threat, and Seattle's right 304 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 5: there with them. That that's that's a really really good division. 305 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 5: We talk about how competitive the nf North is exception 306 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 5: of the Vikings right now, but the NFC West. 307 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 4: Is I'm about to say something controversial, Okay, that's interesting. 308 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 4: I think we're I think I think the Viking is 309 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 4: going to be very competitive this week. I'm not predicting 310 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 4: the victory, but I don't. I think they are going 311 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 4: to be because the reason they've struggled so bad is 312 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 4: been by absolutely horrific quarterback. Brosemur can't be that bad. 313 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 4: There's no chance he can. Matter of fact, I think 314 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 4: brose Mur from what you hear about. I'm not and 315 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 4: I'm not saying he's gonna be the NFC Offensive Player 316 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 4: of the Week or anything like that. But I just 317 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 4: don't think he's gonna melt under the pressure. I think 318 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 4: he'll do fine. If he gets time to throw, he'll 319 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 4: be okay. 320 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: Again. 321 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 4: I I I'm not predicting the Vikings twin, but I 322 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 4: think the Vikings will put up a much better performance this. 323 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 6: We hope you're right. 324 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 5: I mean, I think they'll I guarantee you they'll have 325 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 5: you know, I think I'm guarante they want to extend 326 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 5: the plays. But you know, I think Brosberg can get 327 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 5: the ball out quicker and he can make quicker decisions. 328 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 6: He's he's older. I mean, he's been around. 329 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 5: Uh yeah, this will be his first start, but I 330 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 5: don't think the I hope the stage won't be too 331 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 5: bright for him. But you know, the Fightings will want 332 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 5: to run the ball again. You know, they were doing 333 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 5: it effectively against the Packers, and then. 334 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 4: Will Or they just tell Broseman to go out there 335 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 4: and just let her, let her rip. Buddy, well ahead, 336 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 4: you got nothing, you got nothing to lose. 337 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: Kaos, he goes. 338 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 4: I can go back and play my offense now that 339 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 4: I want to play. We got a new kid in 340 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 4: there that knows it. He was really good in the preseason. 341 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 4: He was he was winging it all over the field. 342 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 4: The rest of the team is probably going now we 343 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 4: got We've got that burden of the kid, and I'm 344 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 4: not trying. 345 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: This is not There are people that I'm I know, 346 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: bad for McCarthy. 347 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 6: That's all you can do. 348 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: I feel bad for the kid. 349 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 4: I mean, your dream is to play in the NFL, 350 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 4: and he just has looked so completely overwhelmed. 351 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: Where was the stant that he would have had a 352 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: better quarterback. 353 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 4: Rating had he had he spiked the ball twenty times? 354 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 6: Did you see that stat I did? I did. 355 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 5: So my point so, listening to JaMarcus Russell in the 356 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 5: same breath as his statistics, that's not good. 357 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 4: I believe it's human nature that, for instance, when the 358 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 4: listeners realize I'm leaving the airon Borero's coming on. 359 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: There's a little spring in there. Stuff. 360 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 4: Hey Barrero, finally a polished, poison professional talk show host, 361 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 4: not a lazy, uninformed, unprepared bozo like me. So I 362 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 4: think that I think there may be guys. I gotta 363 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 4: think Justin Jefferson, Well, I think Justin Jefferson might be going. 364 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 4: I love McCarthy, and I hope he comes back and 365 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 4: plays well, but hey, maybe I'll get maybe I'll get 366 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 4: more opportunities with a different. 367 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: Kid in there. 368 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, the fan base will be very anxious to see 369 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 5: how this all plays out as well. And in otherwise, 370 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 5: if McCarthy had started or does start this week, which 371 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 5: again it's highly unlikely, I think it would be another 372 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 5: kind of gloom and doom kind of you know, approaching kickoff, going, 373 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 5: what could possibly go go worse for them today than 374 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 5: it did against Green Bay. 375 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: I don't think you can get that low. 376 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:18,360 Speaker 6: And yet. 377 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 5: I'm thinking to myself at halftime, they gotta, they gotta, 378 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 5: they gotta shot at this. 379 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: Thing until the ball bounced off Price's leg. Well, yeah, 380 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: that they first day. 381 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 4: I think green Bay took the second half kickoff. I 382 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 4: think they picked up one first down, but then they 383 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 4: have to put. But yeah, and Price, he had the 384 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 4: right intentions. He was trying to throw a block so 385 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 4: that the ball would go to the m zone so 386 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 4: they could get it back out of the twenty or 387 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 4: twenty five whatever ball ends up taking that wacky bouncing 388 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 4: the exactly and next thing. 389 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's two plays in Green Bay squats. 390 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 6: And then that's it. 391 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, that that's game, set and match when you're playing 392 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 5: a quarterback under those circumstances. Again, we're not watching Brett 393 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 5: Fire trying to come back with the Vikings in two 394 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 5: thousand and nine, it was it's not going to happen 395 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 5: with this team. 396 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 6: As we saw the statistics. 397 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,239 Speaker 5: The tail of the tape, as we like to call it, 398 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 5: tell the story for what the Vikings are even capable 399 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 5: of at that point. Seventeen to six may as well 400 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 5: be seventy seven to six. 401 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 4: I tend to agree, let's take a break, come back, 402 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 4: we'll talk about a couple of others. Well, we'll discuss 403 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 4: some other topics other side of the break. It's the 404 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 4: common man with Brett Blakemore and Mark Rosen here on 405 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 4: the Fantom Couple thirteen fourteen pass last segment of the 406 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 4: grum today. I'm common He's tend to be the legendary 407 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 4: Mark Roseen is here as well. 408 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:45,719 Speaker 1: Golphers. 409 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 4: They lose in a shootout thirty eight to thirty five 410 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 4: in Northwestern. 411 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: They had a double digit lead, I believe in the. 412 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 4: Second half they let that get away and then they 413 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 4: lose on a field go they had a chance to 414 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 4: force overtime forty yard at the buzz there. Northwestern just 415 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 4: another five hundred clubs, sort of like the Gophers, sort 416 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 4: of like a yeah, and they might be a game 417 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 4: or two over five hundred the Golphers. But you know 418 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 4: what I'm saying, just that team that's you're gonna probably 419 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 4: win some, lose some. You're gonna win to the you're 420 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 4: gonna lose to the really good teams, and you'll beat 421 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 4: some of the media. 422 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 5: I was I was driving around excuse me earlier in 423 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 5: that game listening to UH on this very airwaves here 424 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 5: Mike Grim and Darryl Thompson is always and Northwestern went 425 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 5: right down the field against the Golphers, and it was 426 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 5: interesting hearing Grim and There'll both talk about the fact 427 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 5: that what poor angles the Golphers, And I'm not watching it, 428 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 5: they're describing it to me, the poor angles the defense 429 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 5: took on all these runs at Northwestern was executing against 430 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 5: the Golphers, and it was just it was like, oh 431 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 5: my god, what are they doing? They they do they 432 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 5: go to tackling school? Do they learn the fundamentals? And 433 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 5: I basically continue the whole the whole game. And it's 434 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,199 Speaker 5: kind of been a symptomatic problem. And I know they 435 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 5: had some new guys. They always there's always new guy 436 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 5: in there, et cetera, et cetera. But you know, whatever 437 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 5: nil money the Golphers have left, they've better invest in 438 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 5: defense and maybe a new kicker that they brought in 439 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 5: because from the portal, he's he can't kick past forty 440 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 5: yards on a field goal. Uh So it's you know, 441 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 5: it's discouraging that way because you think that at this point. 442 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 5: We talked about it last week, these are the games 443 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 5: you just have to find a way to win. I mean, 444 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 5: you just you just do if you want to in 445 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 5: the year whatever it is, seven eight, Uh that you 446 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 5: got you got to you got You're great, you. 447 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 6: Qualified for another Bowl game. 448 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 5: It's just a hollow kind of feeling that their defense 449 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 5: is just so bad and you know, quarterback for the 450 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 5: Golphers looks like he's got a lot of promise. They 451 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 5: you know one, I think the wide receiver they had. 452 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 5: You know, I think they got to improve in that area. 453 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 5: But you got Wisconsin here this week, and Wisconsin's not 454 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 5: going to a bowl game, but this is their bowl game. 455 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 5: We know how the old cliche about this is the 456 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 5: one that they get up for. They've been playing better football, 457 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 5: so you know, people are going to go out there 458 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 5: on Saturday and with the weather being what it is, 459 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 5: et cetera, et cetera. I know it's a rivalry game, 460 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 5: playing for the acts, et cetera, but it's not a 461 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 5: It's just not the kind of feeling I thought Gophers 462 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 5: would have this time of year. 463 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 6: You know, we've been there, done that. 464 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 4: It's two mediocre at Wisconsin's actually probably worse than media. 465 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 6: Oh they'd gotten better. 466 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 5: They've gotten a little bit better of late, but still 467 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 5: you're right, they've had a terrible season. I think people 468 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 5: are surprised their head coach got re up for next year. 469 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 5: So yeah, it's just discouraging because a man, it's just a. 470 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: Randy Johnson rights Gopher football. 471 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 4: He's the beat writer for the Fisher out Factory of 472 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 4: West Here's what he wrote. 473 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 1: The Gophers defense. 474 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 4: A week after giving up five hundred and ten yards 475 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 4: in a loss at playoff contending Oregon, right surrendered five 476 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 4: hundred and twenty five at Northwestern, a team that entered 477 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 4: the game ranked one hundred and six nationally in total offense, 478 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 4: one hundred and tenth in scoring offense in one hundred 479 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 4: and sixteenth and passing offense. Their quarterback was twenty five 480 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,479 Speaker 4: to thirty for three h five and two tudies. Griffin 481 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 4: Wilde had eleven catches for one hundred and eleven yards 482 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 4: in a Tudy. Hayden Elegon the second had seven catches 483 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 4: for one hundred and twenty seven yards. The Gophers coughed 484 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 4: up a twenty eight thirteen third quarter lead and allow 485 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 4: the Wildcats to score twenty two consecutive points and twenty five. 486 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: Overall in the second half. 487 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 6: That was hard to watch. 488 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 4: And that's north They gave up more yards to Northwestern 489 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 4: then Oregon. 490 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: You saw those those those numbers where. 491 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 4: They were ranked nationally. To me, I look is Northwestern 492 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 4: knocking the ball out. 493 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: Of the park with Neil money. I don't think so 494 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 1: are they. I think that. I think most kids go 495 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: there academics. 496 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 4: It's academics and then oh, I'll play some football as well. 497 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: To me, that's. 498 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 6: That's embarrassing. 499 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 1: It really is. And and here's what's what annoys me more. 500 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 4: From his piece that says, over the path three games, 501 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 4: the Golphers have given up fifteen hundred and two yards 502 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 4: to Northwestern Oregon and Michigan State. Michigan State, that's averaging 503 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 4: five hundred yards a game. Here's what flex said. I 504 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 4: don't look at this third at the third straight game. 505 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 4: This was a one game championships. I'm so tired of 506 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 4: this one game championship season. 507 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: Is no, it's it's a tran PJ. 508 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 4: That's three games in a row where your defense was bludgeoned. 509 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: It is you take each game individually. 510 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 4: I get that as far as the stands go, this 511 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 4: doesn't count as three losses though it probably should. But 512 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 4: this championship season gibberish and all that. I think by 513 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 4: this time, at nine years, I think people are getting 514 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 4: a little impatient with that. I'm not expecting him to 515 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 4: win the Natty. I'm not asking him to win the Natty. 516 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 4: But don't get embarrassed by Iowa, Ohio. 517 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: State and Oregon as badly as you did. 518 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 4: And then and then Northwestern, I know it went down 519 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 4: to the wire, give up over five hundred yards. 520 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 5: Well, especially when you're tout early in the week again 521 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 5: about you know, we got to get off to a 522 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 5: good start. You know, we were emphasizing getting off to 523 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 5: a good start both on offensive defense. And Northwestern takes 524 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 5: the ball and goes right down the field. And that's 525 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 5: like I said, I was listening on the radio, and 526 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 5: those guys are both going I think they're pretty fair. 527 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 5: I mean, obviously they're they're they're gonna have a little 528 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 5: golfer homerism to them. But man, they didn't pull any punches. 529 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 5: They just said, I don't know what what the defense 530 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 5: is doing out there, and in terms of the angles 531 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 5: of their trying to tackle the guys. Not that that 532 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 5: Northwestern was was that great offensively, but the golfers were 533 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 5: just so out of position defensively that you kind of go, what, 534 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 5: what are what do they do all week and preparing 535 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 5: for this opponent and why are they getting thrashed like 536 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 5: this against the wildcasts? And you know, I ended up 537 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 5: being in you know, entertaining game only in score alone, 538 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 5: because the Golphers were able to, as you just mentioned, 539 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 5: common they goalvers were able to build a twenty eight 540 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 5: to thirteen lead, and they gave and they coughed that up. 541 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,159 Speaker 5: So I don't know, I long resigned self to the 542 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 5: fact that this one it's just not this is don't 543 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 5: you get And you know, I'm not going to get 544 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 5: wrapped up in and why they're not getting better right now? 545 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 5: I I you know, I just you know, you see 546 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 5: signing days coming up, and you see on social media 547 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 5: the gofer is getting these commitments from such and such 548 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 5: a player and so and so, and they're you know, 549 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 5: outstate guys. Well okay, well we'll see how it works. 550 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 5: I mean, I I don't know, you know, I think 551 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 5: Koy Parrish is probably making as far as nil money goes, 552 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 5: more than anyone else on that team right now. The 553 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 5: quarterback Drink probably be in a position too, maybe as 554 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 5: his as his career goes on. But you know, they're 555 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 5: not they're not competing at the level financially, certainly with 556 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 5: a lot of other teams that you just brought up 557 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 5: A good point in Northwestern I can't imagine is pouring. 558 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 1: You know, I don't think maybe. 559 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 6: Thousands of dollars every into players that you know. 560 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: They very well could be, but I just don't think that. 561 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, no would like I say. 562 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 4: I think academics is the number one reason you go 563 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 4: to Northwestern and then if you're a good football player. 564 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 5: You know, bonus time, Yeah, bonus coach was emotional after 565 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 5: go think. I think they're qualified for a bowl game. 566 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 5: That's a big deal to them. It is a big 567 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 5: deal to them, and he is a right to feel 568 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 5: a little more emotional because they weren't expected to the Gophers. Yeah, 569 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 5: they go to some bowl game in Detroit somewhere. 570 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 4: How about the Your wild club is big of disappointment 571 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 4: to start the season, as we've. 572 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: Seen in quite some time. 573 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, they are now the best record in the league 574 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 4: in the month of November, nine to one and one. 575 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 4: The wall in Saint Paul Walsted, Walsteed, whatever you want 576 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 4: to call him, He had a thirty two save shutout 577 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 4: against the Jets in their last game. It was his 578 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 4: third in his last four starts, making him the league 579 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 4: leader in shutouts and the youngest Wild goalie to achieve 580 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 4: the felt How about. 581 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: That it goes to show you, we know, quarterbacks. 582 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 4: The most important position in all of sports, but I 583 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 4: think goaltenders a close second. 584 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 5: Well, he's been such a pleasant surprise because he was 585 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 5: had a pointing year, but back and forth with the 586 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 5: Wild and now he's kind of figuring it out and 587 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 5: it's a nice problem they have. I've heard John Hines 588 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 5: on with PA late this morning, and I think the 589 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 5: question was, how do you decide which goalie is going 590 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 5: to go? Especially when they're both hot? He goes, we basically, 591 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 5: you know, alternate at this point because they're pushing each other, 592 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 5: you know they are, and you can tell the competition 593 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 5: within that room. Friendly competition is real, and the youngsters 594 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 5: are figuring it out. And you got Caprice Soft and 595 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 5: BOLDI playing at a really high level and it's a 596 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 5: lot of fun. Now they play your guy, Connor, but 597 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 5: Connor Badard in the Chicago Blackhawks tomorrow night in Chicago. 598 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 5: They're they're an improved team, but you know, and then 599 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 5: the big one is Friday afternoon, you know, day after Thanksgiving. 600 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 5: The Colorado Avalanche. I think they've lost still one game 601 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 5: or something. This look up the good Yeah, they're you know, 602 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 5: Colorado Denver's having a banner season in their winter sports. Obviously, 603 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 5: the Broncos are having a great year. 604 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 6: I don't think. 605 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question I got. I was 606 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: fill in the blank. Has the Lande faced the wall 607 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: from Saint Paul? 608 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 6: I don't think so. Okay, I don't think they will see. 609 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 4: How they play when maybe you have the answer the 610 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 4: question you followed the little better. 611 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: I have the Lange played the wall in Saint Paul yet? 612 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 3: I don't think they have their sixteen one in five? 613 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 6: Yeah? 614 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: Have they played the wall in Saint Paul? 615 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 5: I don't think so. All right, that's all I think. 616 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 5: I chance stat last week that between the Nuggets, the 617 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 5: Lanch and the Broncos, they hadn't lost a home game 618 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 5: this year, the three major sports teams. And that's a 619 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 5: great sports town. That's all about. It's all about much 620 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 5: the way it is with the Vikings here. It's much 621 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 5: everything's about, you know, the Broncos in Denver, but they 622 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 5: got to be pumped up. But they love their hockey 623 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 5: team and obviously the basketball team. I don't think they've 624 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 5: lost a home Let me. 625 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 1: Ask a question. 626 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 4: Isn't any city a great sports town when all three 627 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 4: of your teams are nothing but winning. 628 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, but I'm just talking about like the year round 629 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 5: attention that they get through the media, et cetera. Of course, 630 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 5: but there's nothing football is run like it is.

Their management doesn't 642 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 5: care much like the Twins, and they don't put any 643 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 5: money in there in their team. 644 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 6: I see your guy. 645 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 5: Sonny Gray was traded back to BA traded back to 646 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 5: the American League to the Boston Red Sox. 647 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 6: So yeah, should still be with us. 648 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a whole nother story, but he's not. 649 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 6: I was, so I should have stayed up and watching. 650 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: Two games in a row and the loss to Phoenix. 651 00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:00,719 Speaker 4: I read that the Phoenix player said that they were 652 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 4: getting taunted by the Wolves there at the end of 653 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 4: the game. 654 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 5: They've been trash talking a little bit.

No, 669 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 5: tomorrow night there will be double digit underdogs where playing 670 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 5: the machine that is the OKAC Thunder on the road. 671 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 5: Probably they'll they'll probably go there and win tomorrow night. 672 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 5: But they have yet to be the winning team, a 673 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 5: team of the winning record this year, and something you. 674 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: Say anything, the Wolves are going to go there and win. 675 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 5: I mean, that's the kind of conventional wisdom you think about. 676 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know, I really don't, but that's 677 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 5: nothing would surprise me. Will get up for that game. 678 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 5: Something's got to be done. I know they miss naw 679 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 5: n Cal Alexander Walker a lot. They don't have that 680 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 5: that grit coming off the bench. They need a point guards, 681 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 5: miss Kareem Abdul Jabbar. I know that, and that's that's 682 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 5: why they can't keep everybody. And Arren Shannon's going back 683 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 5: from an injury. Dillingham can move the ball around a 684 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 5: little bit, but he can't shoot with a lick. I 685 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 5: just can't see Tim Connolly standing pat. And you've got 686 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 5: a team that has gone to the Western Conference Finals 687 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,719 Speaker 5: two years in a row. They're gonna have to make 688 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 5: a move of some sort. I'm not saying sooner than later, 689 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 5: but at some point, because this is not sustainable. The 690 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 5: lack of poise that this team is demonstrated against winning 691 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 5: teams in particular. But last night was not a winning 692 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 5: team is a arming, is all I will say. And 693 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 5: Randall did not have a great game less and he's 694 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 5: played really well this year. 695 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 4: But is that Dame Att okay See, it is they 696 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 4: The Wolves have zero change. 697 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: Zero. 698 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 5: They they've beaten there a year ago. I think the 699 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 5: way that Okay, the way that okay Se is going. 700 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 5: The one game they lost this year, they had a 701 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 5: twenty some point lead, I think, and they and they 702 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 5: lost the game somehow. Yeah, they learned their lesson. Now 703 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 5: they're just crushing people. They're winning. 704 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 7: I think the average collis professional. They play with a purpose. 705 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 7: Well they are, that's what. No, I'm serious, that's so, 706 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 7: that's what it has to be. Well laughing at me, 707 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 7: it's not meant to be funny. No, that's they are funny, 708 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 7: mister Blake Wore. 709 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 4: You're laughing and smiling to get your back at it again. 710 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 6: They are. 711 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 5: They are men among boys in the NBA right now. 712 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 5: As far as a team that, I mean, we thought 713 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 5: they won the championship, they're even better right now. And 714 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 5: there are many teams that you can say that. You know, 715 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 5: the West is really good, obviously, Denver's great, Lakers make 716 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 5: some noise, Phoenix is good, Houston's very good. The Wolves 717 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 5: can be really good. But okay See is on a 718 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 5: whole another level right now. And that's to their credit. 719 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 5: They're they're hungry. They want to win another ship this year. 720 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 5: That's for damn sure. 721 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 4: So that's must be nice to have a team in 722 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 4: town that you live in, like Okay, See your team 723 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 4: is well, he's polish professional play with the purpose. 724 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 6: That's the four piece. 725 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: That's the only Polish professional with the purpose. That's what 726 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: they do. 727 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 5: Well, that's the only show in town. And they got 728 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 5: a good have they got a hell of a show 729 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 5: in Okay. See right now watching that team this s 730 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 5: g A and our guy chet home Grewns having at 731 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 5: even a better year right now and a deep, deep 732 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 5: bench and and you know the rest of the story. 733 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 4: Why does some teams have that ability to be poised, 734 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 4: polished professional play with the purpose? 735 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 5: And then you have your Minnesota timber one. Well, there's 736 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 5: a lot of teams you can say that about. 737 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 4: But a lot of those teams you say it about 738 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 4: are also teams that are one and twelve. And I'm 739 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 4: talking about teams that are I don't know, back to 740 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 4: back Western Conference, wasn't. 741 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: There isn't there a hunger there and it desire and 742 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: maybe there is. They're just not as good as we 743 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: think they aim. 744 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 6: Well, that's that's the problem. That. 745 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 5: I mean, people are there, What's what could Chris Finch 746 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 5: do differently with his rotation? And and you know, Sacramento 747 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 5: was out of timeouts last night with like eight minutes 748 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,919 Speaker 5: to go. I mean, everything was in Minnesota's favor and 749 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 5: they just, yeah, lack of poise. I don't know how 750 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 5: else to explain it. I mean Aunt did everything he could. 751 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 5: I mean, he may have made a mistake or two 752 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 5: at the end, but he put in forty three. Uh 753 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 5: and Randall was taking some you know, some off balance, 754 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 5: not good great shots and they just got sloppy. And 755 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 5: I don't know. So the Wolves are ten and seven, 756 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 5: and you know, I. 757 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 4: Think it was the night before the loss to Venix Phoenix, 758 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 4: didn't I think Ant missed a couple of free throws. 759 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: Did I'm not cloud to play a loss on him. 760 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 4: But no, I know, you know, he's he's he goes 761 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 4: for forty but then when he when he came to that, 762 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 4: those miss free throws. 763 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: The game huge. 764 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:05,439 Speaker 6: Yeah, that would have clinch the game. But so there 765 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 6: you go. 766 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 4: What are your plans for the holidays, Well, we are 767 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 4: in town, out of town. 768 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 6: Town for Thanksgiving. 769 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 5: Car and I are going off for dinner at a 770 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 5: restaurant and then we're going down to Westbrook, driving down, 771 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 5: you know, three hours plus. 772 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 6: We're celebrating. 773 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 5: Her dad's birthday is actually a month from now, but 774 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 5: we're celebrating now because you're thinking the weather might be 775 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:27,839 Speaker 5: a little bit better. 776 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:28,240 Speaker 6: Rehope. 777 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 5: He's turning ninety, So we're having ninety BFW and Westbrook 778 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 5: stand by the party time. 779 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 4: That'll be the first family get together you've been to 780 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 4: where you're not the oldest guy. 781 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 5: In Yeah, not even close.

This is depressing how bad they 805 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 5: were for decade after decade. Now they get this great 806 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 5: game against Brett's team. 807 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 4: And well, and there were those and I actually understand 808 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:57,399 Speaker 4: the the almost banger by the average fan that says, 809 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 4: why does Detroit just because of this tradition? Why did 810 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 4: they get a game every every year, single year? But 811 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 4: it first started in Detroit for whatever reason, So they've 812 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,280 Speaker 4: always gotten the home game on Thanksgiving. And then Dallas 813 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 4: is in the same I don't know how long it's been. 814 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 4: How many years in a row? Is Dallas had a 815 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 4: long time? And it used to be just the two games. 816 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 4: It would be Detroit at home followed by Dallas at them. 817 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 4: Now they've added a third game, so there are three 818 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,280 Speaker 4: games that one rotates. 819 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 1: I think I don't think it does. 820 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, now they got a Friday afternoon game Black Friday. 821 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,280 Speaker 5: So the Bears are playing the Eagles on Friday afternoon 822 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 5: if you knew that or not? Yeah, so they're playing 823 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,280 Speaker 5: on Uh? Is that the one on Prime? 824 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 6: I think? 825 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,839 Speaker 5: So while you're out chopping around, is that a day 826 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 5: or is it anything? An afternoon game? I think it's 827 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 5: a two o'clock game. That's not And that's kind of 828 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 5: a marquee game right now with the Eagles coming off 829 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 5: that blown lead against Dallas and the Bears. You know, 830 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 5: how long can the Bears hang on in the NFC North? 831 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 5: But yeah, I think the Packer that'll be fair. That'll 832 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 5: be a fun game to watch the Packers and the 833 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 5: Lions programming note. 834 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 4: I think this is the first time ever that I 835 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 4: can recall that the Lions Thanksgiving Day game won't start 836 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 4: at eleven thirty. 837 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 1: It's a noon start. 838 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 6: Oh is that right? 839 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: That's why Deuce pointed it out to me and I 840 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:10,319 Speaker 1: and it says, I don't know. 841 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 4: Instead of eleven thirty, they've decided used to always be 842 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 4: an eleven thirty start. 843 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: Now it's a twelve noon start. 844 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 4: It's a twelve noon and then the game two? Who 845 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:19,439 Speaker 4: does Dallas play? 846 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know. 847 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 6: Uh, looking up, who does Dallas play this week? 848 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 3: They play?

Why they're three and eight? 857 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 6: Who cares what? He gets paid millions and millions. 858 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 3: Of dollars to play a draft pick. 859 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 5: No, man, no, no, no, no, no, no.

They've got like three 867 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,280 Speaker 5: interceptions and Isaiah Robins. 868 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: That was our high water mark. 869 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 6: I would say like, oh, this is gonna be a 870 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:21,760 Speaker 6: fun season. 871 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 1: Oh man, it's all going our way back then, wasn't it. 872 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 4: They got one more day tomorrow, Yeah, you'll be in. 873 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 4: I will, we'll make our official prediction.
