That's one of the more famous... 0:00:31.040 --> 0:00:34.040 media stories of all time. 0:00:34.100 --> 0:00:37.080 I think I can, I, I think it's the statute 0:00:37.100 --> 0:00:38.320 of limitations is gone. 0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:40.800 Do you know the what's wrong with winning one? I've 0:00:40.820 --> 0:00:41.519 heard the story before. 0:00:41.540 --> 0:00:41.800 Yeah. 0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:45.010 It's all Brandis used to be with the wolves. Musselman's 0:00:45.030 --> 0:00:45.390 the coach. 0:00:45.450 --> 0:00:47.629 Wolves are winning meaningless games at the end of the year. 0:00:48.070 --> 0:00:52.110 Just meaningless games. You know, four wins, five wins, six wins. 0:00:52.150 --> 0:00:55.650 It's like, we're trying to get a better draft pick here. 0:00:55.710 --> 0:00:57.420 Why are you trying to win these games late in 0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:02.430 the year? So Barrero's on media row, right? And over 0:01:02.490 --> 0:01:04.470 the din of the crowd, because we've made some kind 0:01:04.490 --> 0:01:05.650 of miraculous comeback. 0:01:05.690 --> 0:01:06.890 We've taken the lead. 0:01:07.310 --> 0:01:10.100 The other team's calling a timeout because we've got their 0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:11.179 backs against the wall. 0:01:11.500 --> 0:01:12.720 The crowd's cheering. 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:15.560 The Wolves players are all high-fiving as they go to 0:01:15.580 --> 0:01:15.960 the bench. 0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:19.240 And Brandis looks down the row and looks at Brown 0:01:19.260 --> 0:01:25.560 and goes, what's wrong with winning? I always love that. Maybe, maybe. 0:01:27.920 --> 0:01:29.619 You don't think that's as funny as I do, but 0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:32.420 that's one of my all-time favorite media stories of all time. 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:35.520 He's so bitter about Barrero writing, why are we trying 0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:38.120 to win these games? 0:01:38.580 --> 0:01:42.690 It's like when AJ got so bitter with me that 0:01:42.730 --> 0:01:44.650 the first thing he said to Rosen after they clinched 0:01:44.690 --> 0:01:46.450 the cup, I just want to say, Dan Cole, you 0:01:46.569 --> 0:01:47.170 doubted us. 0:01:48.270 --> 0:01:53.470 But now we're here. We have hundreds of good media stories. 0:01:53.510 --> 0:01:57.490 More on those later. Right now, though, it's time for 534. 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:04.700 for five questions. Well, actually three, but five sounds like 0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:05.420 more than four. 0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:07.460 Brought to you by Willow River Company. 0:02:09.180 --> 0:02:11.060 Question number one. 0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:17.930 It's now time to take an in-depth look at the 0:02:17.970 --> 0:02:19.190 welfare of the wolves. 0:02:19.510 --> 0:02:23.270 In-depth in the common man's home doesn't. 0:02:22.990 --> 0:02:26.570 Seem like it really... You know... I can barely do 0:02:26.660 --> 0:02:28.320 the surface stuff. 0:02:28.340 --> 0:02:31.940 The Timberwolves' Sands Ant lost to the Golden State Warriors 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:35.800 119-114 last night at Target Center. Steph Curry finished with 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:39.040 42 points for the Warriors. Jonathan Kaminga had 20 for 0:02:39.060 --> 0:02:42.250 the Wolves. LaMelo Ball just eight points, but he did 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:46.910 have eight assists, four rebounds, but five fouls and six turnovers. Common, 0:02:46.930 --> 0:02:48.870 what sticks out to you from last night's Wolves loss? 0:02:49.450 --> 0:02:52.470 They didn't realize you have to play defense, too. Ant's gone. 0:02:52.669 --> 0:02:56.880 Can't pout. Can't drag your... You're sorry. You know what? 0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:57.540 You got to play. 0:03:02.230 --> 0:03:05.090 It's going to be two months minimum, right? And he's 0:03:05.130 --> 0:03:07.910 coming back. He's not gone forever. He should be better 0:03:07.950 --> 0:03:14.299 than ever. You should be tanned, rested, ready. Play some defense. 0:03:18.139 --> 0:03:20.519 I think emotion plays a lot in sports, right? 0:03:21.260 --> 0:03:24.880 To me, that's... You're fired up, you're not fired up, 0:03:24.889 --> 0:03:27.550 you're confident, you're not confident. All the players that are 0:03:27.570 --> 0:03:29.930 playing have talent, varying degrees of talent, but you get 0:03:29.970 --> 0:03:31.310 to the NBA or NFL. 0:03:31.389 --> 0:03:33.970 NBA, MLB, NHL, you've got a lot of talent, right? 0:03:34.660 --> 0:03:39.740 So sometimes I think really the difference is just your 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:47.030 conviction to wanting to play well, your drawing a line 0:03:47.190 --> 0:03:50.190 in the sand and saying, no more, we're not going 0:03:50.210 --> 0:03:51.110 to give up anymore here. 0:03:51.990 --> 0:03:53.590 And so I would have thought, wait, okay, Ant's out. 0:03:54.250 --> 0:03:57.430 Let's circle the wagons and let's go out there and. 0:03:57.130 --> 0:04:01.010 Let's show Ant, show ourselves, show our fans we're at home. 0:04:01.510 --> 0:04:02.150 We'll be all right. 0:04:02.310 --> 0:04:06.750 Because they all said it. When the news first broke, oh, 0:04:06.770 --> 0:04:08.140 we'll be fine. I don't worry about it. 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:10.380 We're deep here. We got a lot of players. We 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:12.620 have a lot of confidence in ourselves. We'll be fine. 0:04:13.740 --> 0:04:14.900 Then they go and lay an egg like that. And 0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:16.340 I know they rallied back. 0:04:16.380 --> 0:04:19.320 Well, I think Golden State at that point sort of in, 0:04:19.339 --> 0:04:21.560 you know, it's like prevent defense in football. 0:04:22.370 --> 0:04:26.220 You know, a team's getting Lions lost to Buffalo earlier 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:26.900 this year, right? 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:28.620 And I think it ended up being just like a 0:04:28.700 --> 0:04:31.680 one-score game. But it wasn't a one-score game. They were 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:35.200 down two, three scores the entire game. Buffalo would score, 0:04:35.220 --> 0:04:37.790 they would score. Buffalo, there was too much distance between 0:04:37.810 --> 0:04:39.230 the two, and that's what happened last night. 0:04:39.270 --> 0:04:41.990 So that's where I'm disappointed about that. Go win that game. 0:04:42.390 --> 0:04:44.049 Golden State's not very good. 0:04:44.070 --> 0:04:49.490 I mean, Steph Curry, he's older than LeBron, isn't he, 0:04:49.529 --> 0:04:51.859 or close to it? He's got to be almost 40. 0:04:51.860 --> 0:04:54.480 I know he's great. And Draymond, what does he have there? 0:04:54.660 --> 0:04:57.500 That's just not much of a team. Butler's not playing, right? 0:04:58.290 --> 0:05:00.830 So that's, to me, the disappointment is go out there 0:05:00.850 --> 0:05:01.610 and win that game. 0:05:02.430 --> 0:05:02.970 But they didn't. 0:05:03.230 --> 0:05:03.830 It's one game. 0:05:03.870 --> 0:05:04.310 It's fine. 0:05:04.350 --> 0:05:07.290 But that's why yesterday I was a little down in 0:05:07.310 --> 0:05:09.510 the dumps about losing Ant. 0:05:10.450 --> 0:05:12.450 I think we're going to be in some trouble. It's 0:05:12.490 --> 0:05:15.130 not the end of the season. I get that. But 0:05:15.210 --> 0:05:16.470 I don't like what I saw yesterday. 0:05:18.500 --> 0:05:19.900 Question number two. 0:05:21.390 --> 0:05:26.290 Programming predicament. Yeah, two games tonight. 0:05:26.310 --> 0:05:29.570 The Minnesota Wild return home from their five-game West Coast 0:05:29.589 --> 0:05:31.670 swing as they host the New York Islanders tonight at 0:05:31.690 --> 0:05:32.450 Grand Casino Arena. 0:05:33.029 --> 0:05:34.540 Buck drops at 7. 0:05:34.540 --> 0:05:36.540 Of course, you can watch it on Wild Plus, but 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:38.280 you can listen to it right here on the fan 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:41.100 and on the iHeartRadio app. And then Thursday night football, 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:44.799 the Green Bay Packers host the Carolina Panthers 7.15 p.m. 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:46.140 That's on Amazon Prime. 0:05:46.779 --> 0:05:50.360 Common, what are you going to do about tonight's The 0:05:50.460 --> 0:05:52.540 Programming Predicament. 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:58.599 I haven't watched The Rockford Files in a while. 0:05:58.620 --> 0:06:00.880 As a matter of fact, did you know they were 0:06:00.930 --> 0:06:04.710 showing The Rockford Files on, like, was it WeTV, back-to-back episodes, 0:06:04.830 --> 0:06:07.790 seven to eight, eight to nine, for a couple of years. 0:06:07.850 --> 0:06:11.110 I watched, for a year and a half, every night 0:06:11.130 --> 0:06:14.530 I watched both episodes. Now they've moved it to, like, 0:06:14.550 --> 0:06:15.950 they've got some other shows. 0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:18.300 In that spot now. Other old people show, boomer shows. 0:06:18.860 --> 0:06:21.350 And now, like, Rockford Files doesn't come on until like 0:06:21.350 --> 0:06:22.390 10 or 11 o'clock at night. 0:06:22.410 --> 0:06:24.290 Well, my teeth are in the glass by then, so 0:06:24.310 --> 0:06:25.990 I haven't watched the Rockford Files. Do you DVR them? 0:06:26.370 --> 0:06:27.790 Yeah, well, I have them, yeah. 0:06:28.190 --> 0:06:31.010 But I mean, I've seen every episode now 13, 14 0:06:31.010 --> 0:06:33.270 times that it's like, I'll take a little bit. 0:06:33.300 --> 0:06:33.770 Don't need a DVR. 0:06:33.810 --> 0:06:34.240 Yeah, right. 0:06:34.250 --> 0:06:36.440 I'll take a little break from them. 0:06:37.740 --> 0:06:40.400 You basically told me that the Isles are a terrible 0:06:40.420 --> 0:06:41.780 team in a terrible city with terrible fans in a 0:06:41.779 --> 0:06:44.140 terrible stadium. And I do like football. Monday night or 0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:45.740 Thursday night, but God knows what night. 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:47.640 And it is the Bears. You know, I mean, they're 0:06:47.660 --> 0:06:48.960 our closest pursuer right now. 0:06:48.980 --> 0:06:52.050 They're right on us. Objects in the mirror, closer than 0:06:52.070 --> 0:06:57.180 they appear. They're 5-2. We're 6-0. And so I will 0:06:57.220 --> 0:07:00.140 watch Thursday Night Football. I definitely will. That's my choice tonight. 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.160 Question number three. 0:07:10.010 --> 0:07:12.610 It's now time to take an in-depth look at the 0:07:12.670 --> 0:07:13.590 state of the school. 0:07:17.430 --> 0:07:24.520 Something called J. today about eight trade deadline deals he'd 0:07:24.580 --> 0:07:28.200 love to see. And the first one on there, he'd 0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.800 love to see Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor traded 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:35.060 to your Minnesota Vikings. Common, what would you be willing 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.619 to give up to bring JT to Minnie? 0:07:38.140 --> 0:07:41.600 Well, apparently that won't happen because Nolan Teasley, according to 0:07:41.620 --> 0:07:43.680 who was it who wrote it? 0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:49.350 He was on the power trip today. I'd podcast that 0:07:49.380 --> 0:07:50.960 right now. Right now, I would. 0:07:52.990 --> 0:07:58.520 He doesn't think it's realistic or he doesn't think it's 0:07:58.540 --> 0:08:00.120 going to happen, I guess is what he said, right? 0:08:00.660 --> 0:08:03.700 And one of those reasons would be the general manager, 0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:06.920 Nolan Teasley, first year general manager, he hasn't had a 0:08:06.940 --> 0:08:08.110 chance to go to the draft yet. 0:08:08.170 --> 0:08:10.110 I don't want to give up a lot of capital 0:08:10.170 --> 0:08:10.710 for that. 0:08:10.770 --> 0:08:13.010 And then if you get a guy like Jonathan Taylor, 0:08:13.030 --> 0:08:15.230 he's making big money, right? Big money, big prizes, and 0:08:15.250 --> 0:08:17.370 throws a salary cap out of whack. And because you've 0:08:17.390 --> 0:08:18.390 got other guys you've got to pay next year. And 0:08:18.410 --> 0:08:21.580 it's like, well, that's all fine and good, but And 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:24.200 if you were a 500 team, yeah, okay, yeah, you're 0:08:24.220 --> 0:08:24.900 three and three. 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:25.620 You're all right. 0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:28.880 You might sneak in as a wild card club, last 0:08:29.900 --> 0:08:32.300 seven seed, get drilled by the second seed. 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:34.500 What's the point of that? But you're 6-0. You're the 0:08:34.540 --> 0:08:37.490 only undefeated team in pro football. Your defense is elite. 0:08:38.530 --> 0:08:42.390 And your offense probably just, the passing game's probably not 0:08:42.410 --> 0:08:44.270 going to get, the only way the passing game gets 0:08:44.309 --> 0:08:46.929 better is if just Murray gets, and I don't know 0:08:46.970 --> 0:08:49.790 if it's because he's still not comfortable in the complicated 0:08:49.870 --> 0:08:53.380 offense or if this is just, Kyler Murray, that's what 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:55.640 you're going to get. He's not going to complete a 0:08:55.660 --> 0:08:58.200 ton of passes. He's not going to, he's not going to, 0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:01.740 he's not going to strafe the secondary, the opposition. Like 0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:08.050 you would see, um, um, you know, Jim, uh, Jim Kelly, um, 0:09:10.610 --> 0:09:11.470 Buffalo quarterback. 0:09:12.309 --> 0:09:13.270 Josh Allen, Josh Allen. 0:09:14.230 --> 0:09:17.150 So Jim Kelly was a quarterback. He's never, I don't 0:09:17.170 --> 0:09:19.390 think he's ever going to be that guy. So you're 0:09:19.410 --> 0:09:22.280 passing games, you're passing game. You might improve the passing 0:09:22.300 --> 0:09:25.839 game if you're running games better, right? And I don't 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:28.520 think the running game with Jacobs and Mason Jennings or 0:09:28.580 --> 0:09:31.510 Mason Williams or classical gas is the, I don't like it. 0:09:31.570 --> 0:09:34.830 And then the people I trust tell me the interior, 0:09:34.850 --> 0:09:37.489 the offensive line just isn't very good right now. And 0:09:37.530 --> 0:09:39.730 whether it can get better with the players they have, 0:09:40.030 --> 0:09:41.610 we don't have time to wait for them to improve. 0:09:41.630 --> 0:09:42.140 We have to win it. 0:09:42.150 --> 0:09:42.590 We got to win. 0:09:42.650 --> 0:09:45.090 Now I say, go try. I'd be willing to give 0:09:45.150 --> 0:09:47.390 up quite a bit to get them. Cause I do 0:09:47.410 --> 0:09:49.300 think this is a year when you, if your defense 0:09:49.380 --> 0:09:52.089 is that good, I don't want to waste it because 0:09:52.090 --> 0:09:54.190 you're going to have to score. 0:09:53.820 --> 0:09:56.620 Some points eventually, I think. So I don't know. 0:09:56.620 --> 0:09:58.920 I would you be willing to make a trade like that? 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:01.559 Or do you think, no, it depends on the price. 0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:06.350 I would love to have them. You know, I'm not 0:10:06.370 --> 0:10:07.730 going to give up the first round pick for him. 0:10:08.330 --> 0:10:10.510 These running backs at that age, the value does tend 0:10:10.530 --> 0:10:14.150 to go down. Now, Christian McCaffrey, I thought I saw 0:10:14.170 --> 0:10:15.910 that he was traded for a two, a three, a 0:10:15.970 --> 0:10:19.929 four and a five. when 49ers acquired him from Carolina. 0:10:19.990 --> 0:10:22.319 Now I think they've liked that, and he's been pretty 0:10:22.340 --> 0:10:24.980 good for them. I don't think I'd be willing to 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:29.100 go that much. Definitely not giving up a one for him. But, 0:10:29.300 --> 0:10:34.890 you know, a two and maybe like a mid-round draft 0:10:34.929 --> 0:10:36.670 pick or something, I would consider that. 0:10:36.710 --> 0:10:39.050 Yeah, I would. I absolutely would. Yeah, you're right. You 0:10:39.070 --> 0:10:42.109 don't give up a one. I'm on board with that. 0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:43.559 But I think you have to make. 0:10:43.470 --> 0:10:46.689 Some kind of an effort to improve the club offensively, 0:10:46.730 --> 0:10:47.709 especially with the run game. 0:10:47.730 --> 0:10:50.370 Because, you know, the. 0:10:49.870 --> 0:10:52.530 Coaches admitted, you know, we're a ball control team now. 0:10:52.710 --> 0:10:55.069 We're a running team. Right now, that's where we're at. 0:10:56.390 --> 0:10:59.290 We're a running team without great running backs. Yes, that's 0:10:59.330 --> 0:10:59.720 the issue. 0:11:00.010 --> 0:11:00.250 Correct. 0:11:01.750 --> 0:11:06.230 And that's it for today's edition of Five Questions. 0:11:06.809 --> 0:11:10.050 Well, actually three questions, but five sounds like more than four. 0:11:10.130 --> 0:11:13.330 Brought to you by my amazing friends at Willow River Company. 0:11:13.570 --> 0:11:17.280 Willow River Company, your outdoor living experts.

And I guess I don't 0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:25.860 step on the grass, man. And I guess I don't 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:28.809 have to worry about that. But now up next is 0:11:28.870 --> 0:11:32.890 my fall cleanups. Getting those garden beds cleaned up and 0:11:33.850 --> 0:11:35.590 breaking up the yard.

Yacht on the Rocks. 0:13:13.190 --> 0:13:16.190 You know, they called Don Fagan one time. Somebody was 0:13:16.210 --> 0:13:19.560 doing a documentary on Yacht Rock. So he picked up 0:13:19.580 --> 0:13:21.820 the phone and he said, yeah, we're doing a documentary 0:13:22.140 --> 0:13:23.420 on Yacht Rock. 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:25.500 And Don Fagan just hung up the phone. I don't 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:27.420 think he likes the term Yacht Rock. 0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:34.090 So prior to the last segment, we closed out the 0:13:34.130 --> 0:13:36.970 noon hour with the segment. And I go back to 0:13:37.010 --> 0:13:39.710 the kitchen area to warm up my luncheon. program director 0:13:39.730 --> 0:13:42.219 chad ever goes he looked at me just disappointed just 0:13:42.380 --> 0:13:44.840 bitter just you didn't even know the wild were playing 0:13:44.860 --> 0:13:47.670 tonight did you and i go no that's why i 0:13:47.670 --> 0:13:48.809 went to ten of b as i said as a 0:13:48.830 --> 0:13:50.330 matter of fact then i was telling deuces i said 0:13:51.340 --> 0:13:52.939 I had nothing in that segment, and I think that's 0:13:52.980 --> 0:13:55.540 apparent to everybody. So I lean on you like handing 0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:58.380 the ball off, right? Just let you run three yards here, 0:13:58.460 --> 0:13:59.120 four yards here. 0:13:59.140 --> 0:14:01.240 Just trying to move the change. Well, typically I fumble. Well, 0:14:01.300 --> 0:14:01.599 you do. 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:04.900 And as I start searching for something on the playbook, 0:14:04.980 --> 0:14:08.480 and then I stumbled across the Caleb Williams cleats thing, 0:14:08.500 --> 0:14:09.620 which I thought was a cool story. 0:14:10.140 --> 0:14:11.080 And that's like play action. 0:14:11.540 --> 0:14:13.480 They think you're going to keep talking hockey, and then boom, 0:14:13.500 --> 0:14:15.079 out of nowhere, I bring up cleats, and all of 0:14:15.100 --> 0:14:16.610 a sudden we're airing it out again, and we get 0:14:16.620 --> 0:14:17.760 to the top of the hour, and we're done. 0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:22.880 What's wrong with winging it? What's wrong with winning? What's 0:14:22.900 --> 0:14:25.140 wrong with winning? What's wrong with winging? I don't think 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:30.359 there's anything. That could be the call. That's not it. 0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:32.680 It's another one of those potential spams. 0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:38.250 I've had a lot of political spam text messages in 0:14:38.270 --> 0:14:38.790 the last week. 0:14:39.390 --> 0:14:42.150 Why do you care if I'm going to vote? Everyone 0:14:42.170 --> 0:14:46.450 that comes over, I just get stop, stop, stop. Allegedly, 0:14:46.470 --> 0:14:48.030 they're supposed to stop. I don't know if they do. 0:14:49.780 --> 0:14:52.200 I keep doing stop and reporting spam, but I keep 0:14:52.220 --> 0:14:57.000 getting them. Speaking of. 0:15:00.380 --> 0:15:04.130 The cleats thing with William, somebody said, how hard is 0:15:04.170 --> 0:15:05.130 it to cover up a logo? 0:15:05.230 --> 0:15:06.930 Seems like the damage is self-inflicted. 0:15:06.950 --> 0:15:10.310 Unless he's looking to get a spokesperson deal with Caddx. 0:15:11.510 --> 0:15:13.490 I don't think he cares. Yeah, the money's not important 0:15:13.510 --> 0:15:16.610 to him. He doesn't... He can find $ 12, 000 in the 0:15:16.630 --> 0:15:19.890 cushion of his couch. Yeah, and now Flacco is going 0:15:19.910 --> 0:15:22.010 to pay for them. And I think it's like, well, 0:15:22.030 --> 0:15:23.510 I don't want to cover it up. It's just the 0:15:23.590 --> 0:15:29.110 principle of things, right? Some people, they take a stand. Yeah, 0:15:30.330 --> 0:15:31.810 I mean, I can understand the text message. 0:15:31.950 --> 0:15:33.490 Why wouldn't you just cover it with a logo? Who cares? 0:15:34.290 --> 0:15:36.480 Really, the only thing that matters is you're protecting your health. 0:15:36.500 --> 0:15:39.660 If you believe that it actually makes it safer for 0:15:39.700 --> 0:15:41.770 you to play football, more power to you, knock yourself up. 0:15:41.780 --> 0:15:42.960 But why do you want to give up the money? 0:15:42.980 --> 0:15:44.240 You don't even need to do that. But I guess 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:44.840 he doesn't care. 0:15:45.790 --> 0:15:49.650 You know? And, you know, here's the other thing I 0:15:49.670 --> 0:15:49.970 don't know. 0:15:50.030 --> 0:15:54.870 I'm assuming that, you know, the NFL, the only logos 0:15:55.010 --> 0:15:58.510 are Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour. 0:15:58.530 --> 0:16:00.130 Those are the only ones that are allowed, right? 0:16:03.750 --> 0:16:09.240 Do the players, I mean, do the players get a 0:16:09.300 --> 0:16:15.680 cut of, we talked about this with baseball yesterday. about the, 0:16:15.900 --> 0:16:18.620 I should die. Maybe we'll, um, and we got spreads 0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:20.900 from incumbents. Maybe we'll do that tomorrow. I want to 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:22.300 take a look at that, that, that, that whole, we're 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:24.180 talking about the CBA with the baseball and there's gonna 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:26.460 be a lockout and such like that, but it's so 0:16:26.500 --> 0:16:29.110 much more complicated than just, well, we need a salary 0:16:29.140 --> 0:16:30.970 cap and a salary floor. And let's go ahead and 0:16:30.990 --> 0:16:32.650 just decide on, on a number of formal. 0:16:32.670 --> 0:16:33.230 We'll go from there. 0:16:33.250 --> 0:16:37.070 There's, there's, there's so much money involved and it's from 0:16:37.370 --> 0:16:42.119 so many different, um, sources that, That it's hard to 0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:43.180 keep even track of. 0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:45.970 And so there's so much money involved that. 0:16:45.830 --> 0:16:48.590 Just saying, well, the players are going to get $ 254 0:16:48.390 --> 0:16:50.150 million a year spread amongst everybody in the team. 0:16:50.190 --> 0:16:50.790 And that's it. 0:16:50.810 --> 0:16:54.330 There's more money to go around than that. But that 0:16:54.370 --> 0:16:54.960 for another time. 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:57.580 Well, and speaking of the Caleb Williams things, I'm pretty 0:16:57.620 --> 0:17:01.600 sure the NFL hires spotters before games. 0:17:02.020 --> 0:17:02.340 Okay. 0:17:02.580 --> 0:17:03.060 Because I think. 0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:08.250 Former Viking sideline reporter, Greg Coleman, like that was his job. 0:17:08.470 --> 0:17:11.850 He would be walking around and checking everyone's cleats and 0:17:11.930 --> 0:17:15.770 socks to whether it's logos, whether they have certain colors. 0:17:15.810 --> 0:17:16.090 Yes. 0:17:16.150 --> 0:17:18.659 I believe like that was his, I'm assuming he was 0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:21.300 getting paid by the national football thing to be looking 0:17:21.340 --> 0:17:23.440 around to see if anyone was not up, not doing 0:17:23.460 --> 0:17:24.420 the proper uniform code. 0:17:26.940 --> 0:17:28.200 And the reason I bring it up that gig. 0:17:28.340 --> 0:17:30.200 Well, the reason I bring it up is, is if, um, 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:33.160 i know i guess it can't be the wild wild 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:34.940 west but you know if a player wants to wear 0:17:35.010 --> 0:17:37.330 something and because he feels it's better for him that 0:17:37.730 --> 0:17:38.889 somebody wants to pay him that but he. 0:17:38.890 --> 0:17:40.570 Has to show the logo but i guess there's deals 0:17:40.609 --> 0:17:42.510 with the league and that's why i say do the 0:17:42.550 --> 0:17:43.889 players benefit from those. 0:17:43.790 --> 0:17:46.190 Deals financially as well they must i would think but 0:17:46.590 --> 0:17:49.949 that's for another time you know you you um you 0:17:49.970 --> 0:17:54.119 were talking about a a trade deadline acquisitions you know. 0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:57.800 Um In the National Football League, USA Today. 0:17:58.100 --> 0:18:02.020 USA Today, on his wish list, what he thought should 0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:07.700 happen was Jonathan Taylor to the Vikings. This is a 0:18:08.580 --> 0:18:13.960 list story from CBS Sports, ranking the big-name players possibly 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:16.080 on the move and putting them into tiers. 0:18:16.700 --> 0:18:18.919 They like to do that at CBS. So they have 0:18:19.090 --> 0:18:20.030 impact starters. 0:18:20.109 --> 0:18:22.310 They have Jonathan Taylor, Saquon Barkley. 0:18:22.930 --> 0:18:31.220 Max Crosby. Khalil Mack, Buda Baker, Darren Payne. He brings 0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:35.500 the pain. He brings the pain. Tuli, Tui, Tulu, Tulu, Dudu, 0:18:36.060 --> 0:18:37.400 the linebacker for the Chargers. 0:18:38.320 --> 0:18:45.290 Josh Sweat, Amani Hooker, and Josh Downs. Those are the 0:18:45.330 --> 0:18:47.990 players that CBS Sports say these are impact players. And 0:18:48.010 --> 0:18:49.600 that's the ones you have to give up a lot for. 0:18:50.060 --> 0:18:50.800 Right i mean they're. 0:18:50.680 --> 0:18:53.719 Not just they're just not coming here for um you 0:18:53.740 --> 0:18:55.500 know a fifth round draft. 0:18:55.260 --> 0:18:57.540 Pick well i mean josh towns i don't think you 0:18:57.560 --> 0:18:59.440 have to give up a lot for you don't know 0:18:59.859 --> 0:19:02.280 and he's he demanded a trade which i find humorous 0:19:02.300 --> 0:19:03.590 i just don't think he's good enough to be in 0:19:03.609 --> 0:19:05.900 the demanding trade category. 0:19:05.460 --> 0:19:09.810 He's caught 26 passes for 307 yards. 0:19:09.830 --> 0:19:13.570 He's okay he's an okay receiver he's an okay receiver um. 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:20.230 And, you know, on the other tiers, there don't seem 0:19:20.270 --> 0:19:20.550 to be. 0:19:21.609 --> 0:19:24.910 Sneaky rentals? There's a Viking player listed on that. 0:19:25.850 --> 0:19:27.810 Juwan Jennings, a sneaky rental. 0:19:27.950 --> 0:19:35.540 Yeah. Why is he not a bit of bigger... Yeah, 0:19:35.560 --> 0:19:37.140 a couple moments last game, finally. 0:19:37.160 --> 0:19:39.660 He's more of a quarterback player probably than anything, right? 0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:47.679 They kind of go hand-in-hand, I think. I mean, just. 0:19:49.270 --> 0:19:51.870 Other than TJ Hawkins in his head moments, what's your 0:19:51.900 --> 0:19:55.869 wide receivers has had like a good season, right? I mean, 0:19:55.910 --> 0:19:58.610 Jefferson's getting the bulk, but he's still, that's his numbers 0:19:58.650 --> 0:20:00.570 are still down compared to what we're used to from him. 0:20:01.650 --> 0:20:05.350 Jordan Addison's barely a factor, right? And Jawan Jennings has 0:20:05.369 --> 0:20:14.710 been a non-factor. Here are, um, here are, um, a. 0:20:17.590 --> 0:20:20.550 Couple of text messages regarding when we were talking about, um, 0:20:21.260 --> 0:20:25.480 possibility of, you know, the, the, uh, USA Today today 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:29.640 talking about trade you'd like to see would be Jonathan Taylor. 0:20:29.340 --> 0:20:30.619 To, to Minnesota. 0:20:31.340 --> 0:20:36.620 Text message says, um, Sorry, Common, I just started listening 0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:38.060 a couple minutes ago, so I don't know if this 0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:40.180 has been brought up, but why are people constantly talking 0:20:40.200 --> 0:20:42.770 about getting running backs? We need a competent quarterback like 0:20:42.850 --> 0:20:46.609 Kirk Cousins, and this team would be virtually unstoppable. I 0:20:46.650 --> 0:21:00.159 think it's more complicated than that. It's... You and I 0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:02.939 just talked about it earlier. It's just hard. I don't 0:21:02.960 --> 0:21:04.810 think Cousins right now is available. I guess if you 0:21:04.850 --> 0:21:08.010 called the Radiators and said, hey, we'd love to entertain 0:21:09.970 --> 0:21:13.210 the possibility of trading for Kirk Cousins, they'd probably listen. 0:21:13.950 --> 0:21:22.480 But they'd probably ask for... They'd ask for. 0:21:22.500 --> 0:21:24.540 I mean, don't you think they would ask for some 0:21:24.640 --> 0:21:26.760 fairly high draft picks for a guy like Cousins if 0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:27.600 you're asking for Corbin? 0:21:27.619 --> 0:21:29.320 I don't know what would be the asking price for Cousins. 0:21:30.130 --> 0:21:32.130 And then what kind of money? It's weird because he's, 0:21:33.450 --> 0:21:36.150 I guess here he might not be a rental. I mean, 0:21:36.190 --> 0:21:39.890 he could be your starting quarterback next season. But given 0:21:39.930 --> 0:21:43.179 his age, you're not giving up a first-round pick for him. 0:21:43.220 --> 0:21:47.940 You're not giving up a second-round pick for him. Maybe 0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:51.020 a third at best. And then at that point, given 0:21:51.060 --> 0:21:52.699 Vegas is still in the mix right now, are they 0:21:52.720 --> 0:21:55.159 just going to give up their starting quarterback? while they 0:21:55.180 --> 0:21:58.380 still have a shot at the playoffs? For a mid-run pick, 0:21:58.420 --> 0:21:59.220 I don't see that either. 0:21:59.330 --> 0:22:01.109 Well, and the other thing is, you said Pellicero was 0:22:01.170 --> 0:22:02.950 on with the pop-up. 0:22:02.990 --> 0:22:10.149 Yoga pants, breasts, sauce-soiling himself. And he said he didn't 0:22:10.170 --> 0:22:13.840 think it was likely. Teasley, first year on the job, 0:22:14.220 --> 0:22:17.480 he doesn't really want to trade draft picks, wants to 0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:19.919 go to the draft. Well, then there would be no 0:22:19.960 --> 0:22:22.040 difference in trading for Cousins or trading for Taylor. They 0:22:22.060 --> 0:22:24.120 both have big contracts, right? You've got to pay them, 0:22:24.160 --> 0:22:28.770 so it's like If Pellicer believes the Vikings really wouldn't 0:22:28.790 --> 0:22:30.950 be in the market for getting a big-name running back 0:22:30.970 --> 0:22:32.470 like Jonathan Taylor, I don't think they'd be in the 0:22:32.510 --> 0:22:33.070 market to get a. 0:22:33.050 --> 0:22:36.090 Big-name running back. I mean, Cousins' contract, he might only 0:22:36.130 --> 0:22:37.930 be under contract for this year. 0:22:37.970 --> 0:22:38.710 I'd have to look it up. 0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:40.879 I don't know if he got a one-year deal or 0:22:40.900 --> 0:22:42.100 a two-year deal, but he might not even be on 0:22:42.119 --> 0:22:43.100 the books for next year. 0:22:43.280 --> 0:22:48.580 And then also, isn't another factor where, like with Kyler Murray, 0:22:48.619 --> 0:22:52.950 for instance— He's getting paid like $ 20 or $ 30 million 0:22:52.970 --> 0:22:54.530 this year, but the Vikings are only having to pay 0:22:54.570 --> 0:22:55.090 like $ 1. 5 million. 0:22:55.450 --> 0:22:57.570 Yes. So maybe that would be part of the deal, too. 0:22:57.650 --> 0:22:58.090 I don't know. 0:22:59.090 --> 0:23:01.390 Spread Swing's coming up next. Deuce is here, Rosen as well. 0:23:01.770 --> 0:23:04.030 Spread Swing on the Common Man program right after this. 0:23:03.910 --> 0:23:08.870 Here on The Fan.

I think that this bread swing is starting 0:24:34.840 --> 0:24:37.129 to catch on. I think they really enjoy it. Can 0:24:37.170 --> 0:24:38.919 they watch it live? Is this one of those they 0:24:38.940 --> 0:24:39.520 can watch? 0:24:39.880 --> 0:24:42.639 No, I would recommend streaming it. Especially if Deuce is 0:24:42.660 --> 0:24:45.120 going to take the time to come in studio every Friday. 0:24:45.300 --> 0:24:48.160 I'm putting so much effort into this. You don't have 0:24:48.180 --> 0:24:50.560 to look at the camera. The cameras aren't working. Your 0:24:50.619 --> 0:24:58.619 score would disagree with Deuce. How bad was it? You 0:24:58.640 --> 0:24:59.440 want to go over the scores? 0:24:59.500 --> 0:25:00.119 Yeah. 0:25:00.460 --> 0:25:02.380 Well, heck yeah. Let's do it. Let's just dive right 0:25:02.420 --> 0:25:02.840 into it. 0:25:02.880 --> 0:25:05.160 Going into last week, I was in the lead with 0:25:05.260 --> 0:25:09.990 minus two and a half points. Common was in second 0:25:10.030 --> 0:25:14.129 with minus 37 and a half. Rosen was in third 0:25:14.150 --> 0:25:18.810 with minus 40. And Deuce was in last place with 0:25:18.830 --> 0:25:19.490 minus 56. 0:25:19.490 --> 0:25:23.290 It doesn't even seem possible you can be minus 56 0:25:23.290 --> 0:25:23.970 in this game. 0:25:24.050 --> 0:25:26.190 I defy expectations week in and week out. 0:25:26.450 --> 0:25:29.119 Five, six weeks into it, too. That's it. Well, let's 0:25:29.140 --> 0:25:31.590 just begin with Deuce. All right. I don't know. 0:25:33.290 --> 0:25:36.030 On Thursday Night Football, on the new Twitter account he 0:25:36.070 --> 0:25:38.869 made up for the common man NFL spread swing, he 0:25:38.890 --> 0:25:42.169 got pretty haughty when his Chicago Bears, who had minus 0:25:42.210 --> 0:25:44.210 three against the New England Patriots, won by six, so 0:25:44.280 --> 0:25:44.990 he gained three points. 0:25:45.040 --> 0:25:47.200 He's feeling pretty good about himself. I was feeling myself. 0:25:47.800 --> 0:25:48.300 But then. 0:25:50.260 --> 0:25:52.340 He decided to take the San Francisco 49ers going across 0:25:52.359 --> 0:25:57.520 the country. Minus three at Atlanta, and they lost by nines. 0:25:57.560 --> 0:25:59.359 You lost 12 points there, and you lost money to 0:25:59.400 --> 0:26:00.380 Rosen on that one. 0:26:00.859 --> 0:26:03.570 That reminds me. I got the cash in my backpack. 0:26:03.810 --> 0:26:05.790 We won't do Venmo. We'll do straight cash. 0:26:06.330 --> 0:26:07.950 I love it. Thank you so much. It's very kind 0:26:07.970 --> 0:26:09.330 of you. What was the item you were in the wager? 0:26:09.410 --> 0:26:10.330 It was seven bucks. 0:26:10.390 --> 0:26:10.810 Wow. 0:26:10.930 --> 0:26:12.330 The rich get richer, Rosie. 0:26:12.450 --> 0:26:14.830 I will blindly bet deuce on any spread swing pick 0:26:14.850 --> 0:26:15.470 he wants to go with. 0:26:15.609 --> 0:26:15.830 Just. 0:26:16.330 --> 0:26:17.490 You tell me what pick you want to do, and 0:26:17.510 --> 0:26:17.990 I'll bet money. 0:26:18.020 --> 0:26:19.980 Oh, I'll keep that in mind. I'm going to get 0:26:20.040 --> 0:26:20.820 back on track. 0:26:21.260 --> 0:26:23.820 You've never been on track, so how can you get back? 0:26:23.859 --> 0:26:24.859 How can you get somewhere you've never been? 0:26:24.880 --> 0:26:26.460 Yeah, you can't get back to somewhere. So, Deuce, you 0:26:26.500 --> 0:26:27.959 lost nine points last week. 0:26:28.000 --> 0:26:31.780 You're now at minus 65. 0:26:32.950 --> 0:26:37.810 But we have a new person in third place. Whoa. 0:26:37.869 --> 0:26:39.970 That would be the common man, Dan Cole. 0:26:39.990 --> 0:26:40.350 What? What? 0:26:42.430 --> 0:26:43.490 Well, wait a minute now. 0:26:44.170 --> 0:26:46.820 Common, you had Detroit minus three and a half against 0:26:46.859 --> 0:26:47.640 Green Bay last week. 0:26:47.660 --> 0:26:49.600 They didn't win, but only by three, so you lost 0:26:49.640 --> 0:26:51.080 a half point. Imbecile. 0:26:51.619 --> 0:26:53.960 You also had the Jets minus four and a half 0:26:54.000 --> 0:26:56.500 against the Dolphins at home, and they lost by three. 0:26:56.740 --> 0:26:59.070 What a Morris. You lost seven and a half points there. 0:26:59.090 --> 0:27:00.790 You lost eight on the week, and you are now 0:27:00.830 --> 0:27:05.940 in third place at minus 45 and a half. I 0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:09.800 Rosen actually gained some ground, even though he did lose 0:27:09.840 --> 0:27:11.719 a double down and it didn't go well there. You 0:27:11.740 --> 0:27:13.830 had Minnesota minus six and a half against the Colts, 0:27:14.090 --> 0:27:16.830 but they won, but only by six. So you lost 0:27:16.890 --> 0:27:18.609 a half point, but then you double down. So you 0:27:18.650 --> 0:27:21.530 lost a one point. Oh, but you wasted a double down. 0:27:21.950 --> 0:27:22.270 I did. 0:27:22.510 --> 0:27:22.770 You're right. 0:27:22.790 --> 0:27:25.110 But I got one less in the bank. Right. 0:27:25.230 --> 0:27:27.010 And so you lost a point there, but you did 0:27:27.050 --> 0:27:28.670 gain 12 points because you had the other side of 0:27:28.730 --> 0:27:30.920 deuce on that Atlanta, San Francisco game. 0:27:30.980 --> 0:27:34.210 You gained 12 points there. So you gained 11 on 0:27:34.230 --> 0:27:34.470 the week. 0:27:34.490 --> 0:27:37.850 You're up to minus 29. You're now in second place. 0:27:38.770 --> 0:27:41.359 And you're a leader, and it's not even really close 0:27:41.410 --> 0:27:46.740 anymore after last week. I had number 18, J.J. McCarthy 0:27:46.780 --> 0:27:49.100 and the New York Giants at plus 10.5 against the 0:27:49.119 --> 0:27:51.860 Houston Texans, and they pulled it off in overtime. They 0:27:51.880 --> 0:27:55.610 won by six, so I gained 16.5 points there. Then 0:27:55.650 --> 0:27:58.290 I had Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay plus three against Carolina. 0:27:58.330 --> 0:28:00.939 They won by 30. Oh my, you're running away with it. 0:28:00.950 --> 0:28:03.119 So I gained 33 points. I almost gained 50 points 0:28:03.150 --> 0:28:06.640 last week. I am now at 47 and in the lead. 0:28:06.720 --> 0:28:09.980 So I'm at 47 points in first. Rosen, you're at 0:28:10.000 --> 0:28:13.760 minus 29 in second. Commons at third with minus 45 0:28:13.760 --> 0:28:16.850 and a half. And Deuce is in the last place. 0:28:17.570 --> 0:28:20.850 With minus 65. So today the order is Deuce Common 0:28:21.210 --> 0:28:22.439 Rosen Tenna. 0:28:24.040 --> 0:28:25.560 Spread swing. 0:28:26.619 --> 0:28:29.290 Your score is the same as the temperature in Antarctica. 0:28:31.440 --> 0:28:33.669 It's been a miserable effort for me, but this is 0:28:33.690 --> 0:28:36.109 the week where I turn things around. I picked up 0:28:36.150 --> 0:28:38.250 some points with this squad last week and I'm going 0:28:38.270 --> 0:28:41.670 to roll with them again, even as they travel to 0:28:41.710 --> 0:28:44.740 the West coast to take on the Seattle Seahawks. I'm 0:28:44.800 --> 0:28:47.540 back in the bears plus three. I know it's on 0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:50.640 the road. I don't care about Caleb Williams, $ 12, 000 fine. 0:28:50.660 --> 0:28:52.620 I don't care about the 12th man. I think the 0:28:52.660 --> 0:28:54.620 bears are going to roll into. Well, they made a 0:28:54.660 --> 0:28:58.770 major trade too. They got Jeffrey Simmons. He's the missing 0:28:58.790 --> 0:29:00.950 piece to the puzzle. I think I, I really like 0:29:00.970 --> 0:29:03.550 the Bears in this matchup. They've been playing well. Seattle 0:29:03.570 --> 0:29:06.310 did look dominant against the Chiefs, but maybe Kansas City 0:29:06.350 --> 0:29:08.150 just isn't quite what we thought they were. 0:29:08.250 --> 0:29:11.910 When you're watching the Bears get destroyed, just hum this 0:29:11.950 --> 0:29:12.330 song to yourself. 0:29:12.750 --> 0:29:17.130 Old Sam Darnold has an army. With a tutty here 0:29:17.170 --> 0:29:19.160 and a tutty there. Here a tutty, there a tutty, 0:29:19.220 --> 0:29:21.560 everywhere a tutty, tutty. I like the Bears. Give me 0:29:21.580 --> 0:29:26.760 a Chicago plus three. Chicago's a tough guy town. Seattle 0:29:26.780 --> 0:29:27.770 is a tough guy town. 0:29:29.350 --> 0:29:30.790 Spread swing. 0:29:32.170 --> 0:29:33.870 You know the weather in Seattle, though, by the way, 0:29:33.890 --> 0:29:34.510 for Monday night? 0:29:34.530 --> 0:29:34.810 No. 0:29:35.470 --> 0:29:37.490 The cloudy? Might have an impact. 0:29:37.510 --> 0:29:37.630 Uh-oh. 0:29:40.160 --> 0:29:40.780 It is me, right? 0:29:40.920 --> 0:29:45.060 It is you, yeah. You're in second. You're in second now. I, um. 0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:51.360 This game is actually... I mean, every game is big, regardless. 0:29:51.900 --> 0:29:54.020 But this is a bigger game for Detroit than this 0:29:54.460 --> 0:29:54.780 one is. 0:29:54.800 --> 0:29:59.830 Minnesota 6-0, Detroit 4-2. Detroit finally won back-to-back games for 0:29:59.850 --> 0:30:01.550 the first time in forever. I mean, they didn't win 0:30:01.590 --> 0:30:02.810 back-to-back games at all last year. 0:30:02.910 --> 0:30:03.110 Right. 0:30:03.390 --> 0:30:06.150 And until they beat the Cards and then they won 0:30:06.190 --> 0:30:07.910 last week against the Packers, they had not won back-to-back. 0:30:09.140 --> 0:30:10.560 Offenses, they're still good. 0:30:10.580 --> 0:30:12.840 They're not the offense they were under Ben Johnson, but 0:30:12.880 --> 0:30:16.300 they're more predictable now. They don't have as much pizzazz 0:30:16.360 --> 0:30:20.440 or panache. Their defense has gotten better the past couple weeks, 0:30:20.460 --> 0:30:22.700 but this is a game where against Minnesota at 6-0 0:30:22.860 --> 0:30:26.580 at defenses, and you know, it's been a nice battle 0:30:26.880 --> 0:30:27.780 when it was Ben Johnson. 0:30:27.800 --> 0:30:28.840 Ben Johnson and Brian. 0:30:28.620 --> 0:30:32.500 Flores, that was fun to watch the two of those 0:30:32.540 --> 0:30:32.880 go against. 0:30:32.900 --> 0:30:33.740 Like Frazier Ali. 0:30:34.020 --> 0:30:37.120 Let's not put them on that level yet. 0:30:37.160 --> 0:30:37.980 Maybe more like. 0:30:41.750 --> 0:30:47.220 Oscar Bonavina against George Shavalo. I'll take that. Let's go Bonavina-Shavalo. 0:30:47.380 --> 0:30:48.190 That's a great matchup. 0:30:49.580 --> 0:30:51.100 Branch and Joseph coming back. 0:30:51.200 --> 0:30:52.020 Well, yeah. 0:30:52.060 --> 0:30:53.820 Branch was back last week, and he had a pick. 0:30:53.840 --> 0:30:57.680 He adds a lot to the club. And Kirby Joseph, 0:30:58.040 --> 0:30:58.420 I don't know. 0:30:58.760 --> 0:31:02.760 He's had his what-are-you-doing-Cam-Dansler moments, but he's pretty good. 0:31:03.060 --> 0:31:05.260 But I think they need this. You lose this at home. 0:31:05.300 --> 0:31:07.360 You go to 4-3. 0:31:07.600 --> 0:31:10.020 Vikings go to 7-0. And then all of a sudden, 0:31:10.140 --> 0:31:15.160 you're basically swimming upstream. That doesn't necessarily mean the Lions 0:31:15.180 --> 0:31:18.050 will win, but there will be a sense of urgency there. 0:31:18.640 --> 0:31:22.530 I still, for the bit, I'm taking the kiddies. 0:31:22.570 --> 0:31:24.250 But I won't be surprised at the Vikings because I 0:31:24.270 --> 0:31:25.630 think their defense is special. 0:31:25.710 --> 0:31:27.530 And I think the Lions. 0:31:27.970 --> 0:31:31.670 The thing is, the only thing going for Detroit on 0:31:31.690 --> 0:31:35.250 the blitz scene is that Goff. 0:31:35.410 --> 0:31:36.590 He releases the ball quickly. 0:31:36.650 --> 0:31:37.530 He handles the blitz fairly. 0:31:37.570 --> 0:31:38.930 He handles the blitz pretty well. 0:31:39.970 --> 0:31:44.130 That doesn't guarantee anything, but if he can stand back there, 0:31:44.310 --> 0:31:46.550 and he hasn't thrown an interception yet this year. 0:31:46.570 --> 0:31:51.250 He's 14 touchdowns. I think it'll be, I, the expectations, 0:31:51.310 --> 0:31:52.910 it'll be a good game. And I think it'll be 0:31:52.950 --> 0:31:53.610 a close. 0:31:53.350 --> 0:31:54.910 Game, but I, I think the Vikings are going to 0:31:54.990 --> 0:31:57.320 edge them, but I'm taking the kitties for the bit. 0:31:57.360 --> 0:31:58.860 Plus do I, Oh, I got to give points. 0:31:59.260 --> 0:32:03.890 I was going to say, do you think, um, this 0:32:03.990 --> 0:32:06.930 point spread shows that nationally the Vikings are still being 0:32:06.970 --> 0:32:09.600 disrespected a little bit, right? Because you always get three 0:32:09.640 --> 0:32:11.980 points for home team. But then you're adding a half 0:32:12.060 --> 0:32:15.320 point for a team in Detroit that's good, but the other. 0:32:15.240 --> 0:32:17.260 Team is 6-0. Hasn't lost a game. 0:32:17.780 --> 0:32:20.420 I am still wondering if nationally a 6-0 team coming 0:32:20.460 --> 0:32:25.100 into a A place like Detroit, a point or two? 0:32:25.360 --> 0:32:28.290 I think it's because the offense has been so ineffective, 0:32:28.330 --> 0:32:32.370 especially when you have Justin Jefferson. Statistically, he's ranked as 0:32:32.390 --> 0:32:36.709 the 50th best receiver in pro football. So I think 0:32:37.450 --> 0:32:39.770 nationally they're down in the Vikings, particularly in the offense. 0:32:39.970 --> 0:32:42.260 But last week the Vikings were only six-point favorites, six-and-a-half 0:32:42.300 --> 0:32:42.720 against the. 0:32:42.680 --> 0:32:43.600 Colts at home. 0:32:43.780 --> 0:32:46.340 So against a team that was really going nowhere with 0:32:46.400 --> 0:32:49.750 a really ineffective offense with the passing game. I think 0:32:49.770 --> 0:32:52.750 it's just an indication more of the way NFL games 0:32:52.850 --> 0:32:55.470 normally go with the occasional blowout or two. 0:32:55.730 --> 0:32:58.229 And still I wonder when the last time a 6-0 0:32:58.550 --> 0:33:01.550 team was underdogs in a game against a team that 0:33:01.590 --> 0:33:03.360 has a couple losses like today. 0:33:03.390 --> 0:33:05.840 I mean, that happens. Yeah, I don't know. It's more 0:33:05.880 --> 0:33:07.940 the points. It's the three and a half, right? 0:33:07.960 --> 0:33:10.360 Because like I said, they always give the standard three 0:33:10.400 --> 0:33:12.360 points for the home team. But then you're also saying... 0:33:12.750 --> 0:33:15.830 If this was 50-50 and they were on a neutral field, 0:33:15.870 --> 0:33:17.970 then Detroit would still be favored. That's what it is 0:33:18.030 --> 0:33:18.600 indicating to me. 0:33:18.880 --> 0:33:22.780 Some people would say, describe it as the Vikings are 0:33:22.800 --> 0:33:24.960 being disrespected and maybe they can rally around that. 0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:27.340 What do you think of the Lions now? 0:33:27.660 --> 0:33:28.900 Yeah. I'm taking the Kitties. 0:33:29.080 --> 0:33:29.370 All right. 0:33:29.440 --> 0:33:29.740 Shocking. 0:33:31.270 --> 0:33:32.690 Spread swing. 0:33:38.400 --> 0:33:41.030 Speaking of head scratchers, I really hadn't looked at this 0:33:41.070 --> 0:33:43.210 team until I literally walked into it and saw your 0:33:43.310 --> 0:33:44.650 sheet in front of me here and looked at the 0:33:44.690 --> 0:33:45.130 point spread. 0:33:45.170 --> 0:33:46.370 And I went, wait a minute. 0:33:47.250 --> 0:33:49.310 The Rams are only six and a half point favorites 0:33:49.390 --> 0:33:52.950 against the Chargers. The Rams are three and four. Desperate 0:33:53.010 --> 0:33:55.270 team in that NFC West where you just have got 0:33:55.290 --> 0:33:58.230 to keep winning with San Francisco and Seattle ahead of 0:33:58.270 --> 0:34:01.190 you and kind of getting out of their doldrums and 0:34:01.210 --> 0:34:04.610 getting healthier. The Chargers are... I don't know if they 0:34:04.630 --> 0:34:06.710 have one fan left in Los Angeles. I think the 0:34:07.030 --> 0:34:08.850 remaining fans are still in San Diego. 0:34:09.930 --> 0:34:10.509 They're awful. 0:34:11.360 --> 0:34:13.719 They haven't won a game yet. They're 0-6, and I 0:34:14.120 --> 0:34:16.719 just don't see them. The trading deadline next week, all 0:34:16.760 --> 0:34:20.080 this stuff happening. They're playing at the same stadium, so 0:34:20.100 --> 0:34:21.900 it doesn't really matter. The Rams will have a big 0:34:21.920 --> 0:34:24.259 advantage with the fans, not that that matters. The Rams 0:34:24.280 --> 0:34:25.600 are going to go on a roll. I think they'll 0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:27.940 roll the Chargers in this game. I'm really surprised. 0:34:27.960 --> 0:34:29.299 Again, we were just talking about point spreads. 0:34:29.830 --> 0:34:31.370 There are only six and a half point favorites, so 0:34:31.430 --> 0:34:33.890 I'll take the Rams and just take my chances. I 0:34:33.910 --> 0:34:36.380 think that's a good chance for a blowout. 0:34:36.400 --> 0:34:37.160 How about a double down? 0:34:37.580 --> 0:34:37.759 No. 0:34:38.020 --> 0:34:40.000 Well, if it's a blowout. Well, I'm going to say 0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:41.660 I got to keep that one. You wasted it last week. 0:34:41.680 --> 0:34:42.620 You only got one available. 0:34:42.960 --> 0:34:45.640 At least I didn't really lose it, but not a 0:34:45.680 --> 0:34:47.160 good choice. 0:34:47.180 --> 0:34:47.250 No. 0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:49.200 That was with my head. I was embarrassed for it. 0:34:49.719 --> 0:34:50.520 I appreciate it. 0:34:52.340 --> 0:34:59.230 Spread swing. Here's the leader. 0:34:59.270 --> 0:35:01.489 What are you going to do? I know the game 0:35:01.530 --> 0:35:02.670 everyone's excited about this week. 0:35:02.690 --> 0:35:04.910 That would be the New York Jets hosting the Las 0:35:04.930 --> 0:35:06.270 Vegas Raiders. 0:35:06.750 --> 0:35:08.110 Is this going to be his version of taking the 0:35:08.150 --> 0:35:08.790 air out of the ball? 0:35:08.830 --> 0:35:09.890 Got a big lead. 0:35:09.910 --> 0:35:12.989 Let's just go ahead and prevent defense. I don't think 0:35:13.010 --> 0:35:15.210 anyone's even televising that. I'm hitting the gas. 0:35:15.750 --> 0:35:16.109 Are you? 0:35:16.230 --> 0:35:17.170 I'm going to gain 13, 14 points on this one. 0:35:19.530 --> 0:35:21.850 The Jets are favored at home by a point and 0:35:21.870 --> 0:35:24.069 a half over the Las Vegas Raiders, but I think 0:35:24.090 --> 0:35:24.890 the Las Vegas. 0:35:24.710 --> 0:35:26.110 Raiders are just the better team. 0:35:26.130 --> 0:35:28.700 I know they've lost four in a row, but if 0:35:28.969 --> 0:35:31.379 you look at their four losses, they're all the really 0:35:31.840 --> 0:35:32.520 very good teams. 0:35:32.560 --> 0:35:34.600 Kansas City, New England, Buffalo, Carolina. 0:35:34.640 --> 0:35:37.819 I think Vegas is a decent team, whereas I know 0:35:37.840 --> 0:35:39.900 the Jets are not, and they just lost to Miami 0:35:40.500 --> 0:35:41.319 at home last week. 0:35:41.380 --> 0:35:44.609 So I am going to back Kirk Cousins. and the 0:35:44.660 --> 0:35:47.649 Las Vegas Raiders. You like that? You like that? 0:35:47.750 --> 0:35:49.030 And I'm going to take that point and a half, 0:35:49.330 --> 0:35:51.750 and I'll take Vegas plus one and a half. 0:35:52.790 --> 0:35:56.489 Might be his last start for Vegas. Mendoza might be. No, 0:35:56.510 --> 0:35:57.890 he's going to win the game, and then they're going 0:35:57.930 --> 0:36:00.560 to be in the hunt in the playoffs. I see. 0:36:00.780 --> 0:36:03.000 Ten has got it figured out. He's our fearless leader. 0:36:03.020 --> 0:36:03.140 He is. 0:36:03.140 --> 0:36:05.160 Let's take the back seat and follow the lead. 0:36:05.239 --> 0:36:08.420 All right. Spread swing. 0:36:14.190 --> 0:36:16.550 Any of these other games that are left on the board. 0:36:16.590 --> 0:36:18.610 To be fair, I never really like any games because 0:36:18.680 --> 0:36:20.880 regardless of what I do, I'm going to lose a 0:36:20.900 --> 0:36:23.500 handful of points. But I'm going to go with another 0:36:23.860 --> 0:36:25.140 road underdog. 0:36:25.180 --> 0:36:26.160 Maybe you could get. 0:36:26.020 --> 0:36:29.060 The Diamond Joe endorsement. Somebody should try to sell the 0:36:29.100 --> 0:36:33.150 Diamond Joe endorsement to Deuce. Deuce here for Diamond Joe. 0:36:33.170 --> 0:36:34.150 1-800-LOSE-NOW. 0:36:34.770 --> 0:36:37.410 That's the gambling hotline. I remember a listener texted that 0:36:37.450 --> 0:36:38.190 in a little while ago. 0:36:38.210 --> 0:36:38.810 It was brilliant. 0:36:38.830 --> 0:36:39.610 I like it. Love it. 0:36:40.010 --> 0:36:41.940 I think the Ravens are going to pick up a 0:36:42.000 --> 0:36:44.259 surprise victory. 0:36:44.040 --> 0:36:47.500 Over the Buffalo Bulls. You're not really doing that, are you? 0:36:47.560 --> 0:36:49.859 You're intentionally trying to lose as much as you can. 0:36:49.960 --> 0:36:52.859 It's the return of Lamar Jack. I think he's going 0:36:52.890 --> 0:36:54.430 to come back. Is he playing? 0:36:54.450 --> 0:36:57.469 Yeah, he's playing. Sounds like it. He's on track to play. 0:36:57.489 --> 0:36:58.350 He's practicing this week. 0:36:58.410 --> 0:37:02.030 Yeah, his first game since, what, like week two or three, maybe? 0:37:02.050 --> 0:37:02.850 I don't like it. 0:37:02.870 --> 0:37:05.160 I got a good feeling about the Ravens. Just let 0:37:05.180 --> 0:37:05.759 Lamar cook. 0:37:05.969 --> 0:37:06.620 He'll do his thing. 0:37:07.260 --> 0:37:09.440 Or three quarters, and in the fourth quarter, bring it 0:37:09.460 --> 0:37:11.140 to Derrick Henry or any of. 0:37:11.140 --> 0:37:11.719 Those other fellows. 0:37:11.760 --> 0:37:12.839 Give me Baltimore plus three. 0:37:12.860 --> 0:37:13.469 I like the Ravens. 0:37:15.750 --> 0:37:17.230 Spread swing. 0:37:24.030 --> 0:37:27.700 Here we go, A-Rodge. Here we go. Oh, boy. I'm 0:37:27.739 --> 0:37:30.760 starting to believe in A-Rodge. This is one of those... Well, 0:37:30.780 --> 0:37:32.360 for first place... Well, this could be. 0:37:33.180 --> 0:37:36.899 Seriously, I mean, if you're looking for... If you're looking for, 0:37:36.940 --> 0:37:41.230 you know, storybook seasons and stuff, how about A-Rodge in 0:37:41.270 --> 0:37:42.129 his final year? 0:37:42.150 --> 0:37:43.170 Because he has said this is it. 0:37:43.670 --> 0:37:45.610 And they're... What is their... Are they four and. 0:37:45.650 --> 0:37:49.370 Five and two. Five and two. So is Cleveland. I 0:37:49.430 --> 0:37:50.070 didn't expect. 0:37:50.690 --> 0:37:51.050 Especially. 0:37:51.070 --> 0:37:52.900 It's an AFC North Division collision is what it is. Yeah, 0:37:52.940 --> 0:37:58.459 it is. Tomlin out. McCarthy's their coach now, right? Yes. Yeah. 0:37:58.840 --> 0:38:02.100 And, you know, I've always thought McCarthy was the beneficiary 0:38:02.160 --> 0:38:04.660 of a really good Aaron Rodgers back in 2010 when 0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:08.010 he won the big game. Because... Since he's not been 0:38:08.030 --> 0:38:12.899 with Rodgers, McCarthy's coach, he doesn't have a winning record 0:38:12.940 --> 0:38:13.359 as a coach. 0:38:13.480 --> 0:38:14.440 He had the gig in. 0:38:14.440 --> 0:38:15.720 Dallas, and he got canned. 0:38:15.739 --> 0:38:18.750 It was awful. He had some good seasons in Dallas, 0:38:18.810 --> 0:38:19.890 regular seasons in Dallas. 0:38:20.090 --> 0:38:23.830 But they got the band back together, and A-Rod would 0:38:23.870 --> 0:38:25.780 be a great story at home. 0:38:26.660 --> 0:38:29.120 And these teams do not like each other. No, they 0:38:29.140 --> 0:38:30.000 sure don't. 0:38:30.340 --> 0:38:31.540 I'm going to go ahead and give the three and 0:38:31.560 --> 0:38:33.500 a half points, and I'm going to be pulling for A. 0:38:33.540 --> 0:38:33.880 Rogers. 0:38:34.080 --> 0:38:36.819 Coming back from France. Circadian rhythm. 0:38:36.880 --> 0:38:37.840 Body clock. 0:38:37.860 --> 0:38:38.680 Doesn't bother me at all. 0:38:40.200 --> 0:38:41.660 Spread swing. 0:38:44.500 --> 0:38:48.680 Am I up? 0:38:49.320 --> 0:38:51.469 Yeah, don't snipe me. Well, Deuce, we're going to go 0:38:51.530 --> 0:38:55.130 head-to-head again. I like it. Sniped. 0:38:55.190 --> 0:38:55.720 Yeah, I. 0:38:56.940 --> 0:38:59.440 The Bills are coming off a bye. They're well-rested. 0:38:59.580 --> 0:39:02.620 The Vikings, of course, play them here a week from Monday. 0:39:02.640 --> 0:39:05.440 Do you think they're overlooking the Ravens then, looking ahead 0:39:05.460 --> 0:39:07.140 to Minnesota? They might be looking ahead to the Vikings, 0:39:07.360 --> 0:39:10.899 a preview of the Super Bowl. So, no, they're not 0:39:11.000 --> 0:39:13.859 overlooking them. But I do like any time I can 0:39:14.670 --> 0:39:17.610 get Buffalo minus three at home with that crowd, with 0:39:17.630 --> 0:39:19.130 that craziness. 0:39:19.390 --> 0:39:23.390 Bills Mafia. Bills Mafia, Josh Allen this, Josh Allen that. 0:39:24.350 --> 0:39:24.830 Only three. 0:39:24.870 --> 0:39:28.040 I mean, that seems like. I don't care that Lamar's 0:39:28.060 --> 0:39:29.469 coming back. Buffalo's got a better team. 0:39:29.660 --> 0:39:32.420 Also, anytime you can go head-to-head with myself and Spence, 0:39:32.460 --> 0:39:35.820 you typically take those odds. Did you get sniped. 0:39:35.600 --> 0:39:36.080 There, Tenneby? 0:39:36.960 --> 0:39:39.460 I actually had Buffalo as my third choice. If he 0:39:39.480 --> 0:39:41.140 would have sniped my second choice, I was going to 0:39:41.180 --> 0:39:45.100 go head-to-head against Deuce. They're coming off a bye. They're 0:39:45.300 --> 0:39:48.080 getting DJ Moore back on offense. They're getting Ed Moore 0:39:48.140 --> 0:39:50.299 back on defense. A couple of key players coming back. 0:39:50.320 --> 0:39:54.420 They're going to be rested, healthy. And Baltimore, like, Lamar 0:39:54.440 --> 0:39:57.890 Jackson's coming back, but it doesn't mean he's 100% healthy. 0:39:57.969 --> 0:39:59.569 He might just be there at a point in their 0:39:59.590 --> 0:40:01.390 season where they've got to go force it here. 0:40:01.630 --> 0:40:02.850 Yeah, got to take the bills here. 0:40:05.350 --> 0:40:09.030 Spread swing. 0:40:09.070 --> 0:40:12.990 Take the bike. Seems like the two of you just. 0:40:12.870 --> 0:40:13.750 Shied away from that. 0:40:14.150 --> 0:40:16.550 Normally, you're all over the Vikings. You think they're great. 0:40:16.610 --> 0:40:19.529 They're a big game contender. And, again, you were awful quiet. 0:40:19.550 --> 0:40:21.089 I'm staying away from the Vikings. I think they're due 0:40:21.140 --> 0:40:24.229 for a dud. You guys don't believe in the club anymore. 0:40:24.250 --> 0:40:26.540 That's not true. I just didn't want to take them. No, 0:40:26.560 --> 0:40:28.360 you don't believe it. You guys are talking about road underdogs. 0:40:28.400 --> 0:40:30.520 I'm going to take a home underdog. 0:40:30.980 --> 0:40:33.500 I usually don't bet against the Kansas City Chiefs, but 0:40:33.520 --> 0:40:36.650 they didn't look very good last week in Seattle, and 0:40:36.690 --> 0:40:38.069 they have the short week because they. 0:40:37.969 --> 0:40:41.290 Played on a Monday night, whereas... No, they were the 0:40:41.330 --> 0:40:43.029 Sunday night game. I'm sorry. They're not a short week. 0:40:44.180 --> 0:40:47.819 But Denver's defense is absolutely elite, and their offense, while 0:40:47.880 --> 0:40:50.460 not great, has come around a little bit since Sean 0:40:50.480 --> 0:40:52.780 Payton started calling plays. They've won three in a row. 0:40:54.110 --> 0:40:58.290 I think Kansas City, people say the Vikings are paper tigers. 0:40:58.330 --> 0:41:00.190 I think the Chiefs, for a good chunk of the season, 0:41:00.210 --> 0:41:01.670 have been a little bit of paper tigers, and they 0:41:01.710 --> 0:41:04.360 got exposed a little bit last week in Seattle. When 0:41:05.140 --> 0:41:07.100 Mahomes is getting pressured against good defenses like he was 0:41:07.140 --> 0:41:11.299 in Seattle, Casey's offense can't hold up, and Denver has 0:41:11.340 --> 0:41:12.580 one of those defenses that's going to put a lot 0:41:12.600 --> 0:41:14.080 of pressure, and I'm getting a point, and I'm. 0:41:14.020 --> 0:41:17.040 Getting at home. And we didn't even talk about the 0:41:17.080 --> 0:41:19.920 thin air up in Denver. Correct. So I'm going to 0:41:19.940 --> 0:41:23.770 take the Broncos plus one at home. All right. Very good. 0:41:23.890 --> 0:41:26.070 Brett Blakemore just texted me and said, thanks for taking 0:41:26.130 --> 0:41:28.350 the Bears and not Green Bay. 0:41:28.570 --> 0:41:29.010 Wow. 0:41:29.030 --> 0:41:32.430 I mean, I did take Green Bay on a Thursday 0:41:32.450 --> 0:41:33.970 night game they had a couple weeks ago, a few 0:41:33.989 --> 0:41:35.910 weeks ago, and it went very poorly for me. 0:41:36.320 --> 0:41:39.640 Here's your spread swing recap. Deuce was the last place. 0:41:40.960 --> 0:41:45.100 He takes Chicago plus three and Baltimore plus three. Commons 0:41:45.140 --> 0:41:47.640 got Detroit minus three and a half and Pittsburgh minus 0:41:47.660 --> 0:41:50.440 three and a half. Rosen with the Rams minus six 0:41:50.460 --> 0:41:53.330 and a half and Buffalo minus three. And then I'm 0:41:53.350 --> 0:41:55.509 taking a couple underdogs, Vegas plus one and a half 0:41:55.770 --> 0:41:57.230 and the Broncos plus one. 0:41:57.630 --> 0:41:59.810 There we go. You got a big one Saturday. Big 0:41:59.910 --> 0:42:00.530 one Saturday. 0:42:00.550 --> 0:42:05.560 We got Chanhassen traveling down to Mankato West section semifinal. 0:42:05.580 --> 0:42:08.540 Mankato West is ranked sixth in the state, and that's 0:42:08.580 --> 0:42:10.440 among all teams, even the big 6A schools. 0:42:10.520 --> 0:42:13.620 And they're a 5A school. They're ranked sixth. They're a powerhouse. 0:42:13.840 --> 0:42:16.530 Mankato West, a great club. They haven't lost a game 0:42:16.630 --> 0:42:18.469 all year, so it'll be exciting to see what they 0:42:18.510 --> 0:42:21.250 can do. It'll be my ninth football game, so maybe 0:42:21.310 --> 0:42:24.310 similar to how Paul Allen wore the jersey with 500 0:42:24.310 --> 0:42:26.450 on it. I could wear a number nine jersey. There's 0:42:26.469 --> 0:42:31.170 plenty of those left over from our most recent. Plenty 0:42:31.210 --> 0:42:32.110 of them on clearance. 0:42:32.150 --> 0:42:34.910 They're just flying off the... Flying onto the hooks, rather. 0:42:34.989 --> 0:42:35.229 Yeah. 0:42:35.430 --> 0:42:36.830 What did your Huskers have this week? 0:42:37.090 --> 0:42:38.469 They got worshinged. 0:42:38.710 --> 0:42:39.390 Oh. 0:42:39.750 --> 0:42:42.240 I think it's on the road. And I got to say, 0:42:42.280 --> 0:42:45.259 the wind has been removed from my sails after that 0:42:45.440 --> 0:42:48.279 Oregon loss. Rayola didn't even play very well when he 0:42:48.480 --> 0:42:50.680 came into the game, but he did just enough to 0:42:50.700 --> 0:42:53.620 get Oregon past Nebraska. The game ended at about 1.30 0:42:53.620 --> 0:42:55.719 or 2 in the morning because it was a 10 0:42:55.719 --> 0:42:56.360 o'clock kick. 0:42:56.460 --> 0:42:57.860 One of those great starts. 0:42:57.920 --> 0:43:00.219 And it was a painful watch. I went to bed halftime. 0:43:00.260 --> 0:43:01.840 I gave up on my club, and for good reason. 0:43:02.060 --> 0:43:02.680 They lost. They blew it. 0:43:02.680 --> 0:43:03.080 Think about it. 0:43:04.340 --> 0:43:05.960 It's his club and he gave up. I watched it 0:43:06.000 --> 0:43:06.530 to the bitter end. 0:43:07.469 --> 0:43:09.129 And you didn't even go to Nebraska. 0:43:10.070 --> 0:43:10.330 No. 0:43:10.370 --> 0:43:12.049 No, I never got that far. I paid to go 0:43:12.070 --> 0:43:14.830 to Nebraska. A lot of money. What does the N 0:43:14.850 --> 0:43:16.190 stand for on the side of that helmet? 0:43:16.530 --> 0:43:17.010 Knowledge. 0:43:17.070 --> 0:43:17.450 Correct. 0:43:17.930 --> 0:43:19.720 Deuce, we'll see you next week, and I'll be listening 0:43:19.780 --> 0:43:20.799 to your game. Is that a 7 o'clock? 0:43:20.820 --> 0:43:21.359 Is it a night game? 0:43:21.880 --> 0:43:23.600 It's a 1 o'clock game. 0:43:23.680 --> 0:43:23.750 Oh! 0:43:23.739 --> 0:43:26.339 1 o'clock Saturday afternoon, so I still got time to 0:43:26.380 --> 0:43:29.100 go out and run it up for Halloween. Rosie, tonight 0:43:29.120 --> 0:43:31.020 we could go party, man. I'm going to a Halloween 0:43:31.060 --> 0:43:32.450 thing for Jenna's work. 0:43:32.489 --> 0:43:33.690 Cowboy Jax, you in? 0:43:33.710 --> 0:43:35.190 I'm I'm not in. 0:43:35.190 --> 0:43:37.650 I'm going to sit home and feed up. Yeah, what 0:43:37.670 --> 0:43:42.259 a bad break for me. Have fun and be safe. Yes, 0:43:42.300 --> 0:43:42.700 will do. 0:43:42.719 --> 0:43:43.580 Thank you, Pops. 0:43:43.600 --> 0:43:46.420 Take a break, come back.
