His parents are introducing him to a lifetime 173 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 5: of misery regardless of the team. 174 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. 175 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 5: It's just like, why did you do that to your child? 176 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 5: Why are you making him watch pro football and go 177 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 5: to games and get exect? 178 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 3: His heart's going to get broken. 179 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 2: Do you think part of this is you could argue 180 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: to bring it to the current time as opposed to 181 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 2: the time that we tend to live in. You and me, 182 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 2: that your neurological pathways got disconnected somewhere along the road. 183 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 3: That's what this is all. I think. 184 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 5: I think, I think I think Texters got it right. 185 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 5: I think that's path. 186 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's mean, Well, why you even hear this late? 187 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 2: Looking for my launch path all this time? Well, I 188 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 2: was talking to salespean okay, sales, trying to trying to 189 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 2: find money, did you any lie? Yeah, well it's early 190 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 2: in the year, it's only January. Usually things kind of 191 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 2: build up because the time. 192 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 4: What you is it controversial? 193 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 2: Well, it is because I've got a lot of people 194 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 2: who believe I never played the game and I don't 195 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 2: understand emotion, and yeah, JJ, maybe they got a little 196 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 2: bit better of it the other you know, I got 197 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 2: the he got a little out of control with how 198 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 2: he reacted and what's wrong, a little emotion and I 199 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 2: didn't even think it was emotion that his teammates, particularly 200 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: rallied to. I think, to me, that's one of those 201 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 2: he just wins and you go, oh god, please. 202 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 5: But when he was doing the apology, it didn't look 203 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 5: like many of the players were like, yeah, that's okay. 204 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 4: They were look at him and look away. 205 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 2: Well, I haven't actually think I see everyone. So I 206 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 2: get a text that I think confirms one of my 207 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 2: concerns about him. And there are times he may end 208 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 2: up being an all time great. And by the way, 209 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 2: I'm not ready to give up on it. 210 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 4: I'm not either. 211 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: I don't think I think that'd be foolish. But I 212 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: worry that he's one of those quarterbacks who likes the 213 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 2: idea of the persona of being the quarterback more than 214 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: actually doing day to day the things that make you 215 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 2: a good quarterback, you know what I mean, Like a 216 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 2: little bit. 217 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 3: Like you know nine, he's not nine. 218 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 5: He's got the and the way this guy puts he's 219 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 5: caught up in the juvenile backyard theatrics of football more 220 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 5: than he is playing the game, just trying to conduct 221 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 5: himself as an adult professional, and I think he's I 222 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 5: think someone's given him the wrong idea. Like son, if 223 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 5: you show that kind of feistiness, people are gonna love that, 224 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 5: And I'm gonna tell you they might love it at 225 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 5: the beginning, but it ain't gonna last. 226 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 3: What they're gonna love is. 227 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 2: In the the prime, you know, in the heat of battle, 228 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 2: just coolly, calmly making the right read, the right throw, 229 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 2: over and over again. That's what they're gonna care about 230 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 2: more than the other because the other stuff, you can say, 231 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 2: we rally around it is its emotion and it's a 232 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 2: good thing. 233 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 3: They'll get tired of that. 234 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 5: If you can't make the plays, that's what's being the 235 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 5: quarterback is not sort of assuming this role that you 236 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 5: have been led to believe is what it's about. If 237 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 5: you want to make it to the top level. The 238 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 5: one thing then I think may work in the service. 239 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 5: You would hope that's something that's just a bad decision. 240 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 5: You're where the coach can go, don't do that again, 241 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 5: and maybe he'll learn. I don't know if teaching the 242 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 5: mechanics and the intricacies of the game is quite as easy. 243 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 5: I can't have one thing you can correct if he's 244 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 5: act does do it. But you're right, nobody liked that. 245 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 5: I mean again, the game was meaningless, but they had 246 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 5: a nice drive going and that just basically snuffed out 247 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 5: the stuff out. 248 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 3: It wasn't it wasn't impressive. You gotta go. I gotta go. 249 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 2: I got because I this is Ben Lieber's hour and 250 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 2: I gotta get see liber I think you we and 251 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 2: I talked about this before the show. It sounds like 252 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: liber was a little bit frustrated that he pulled himself 253 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: with JJ pulling h stuff out of the game, and 254 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 2: I want to I want to get back into that 255 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: issue with him because I respect him. He's a good 256 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: commentator and he's a former player, and there's that question 257 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 2: that we both talked about. It's like, well, but if 258 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 2: he literally can't throw, is he hurting the team? 259 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 3: Yes? If he does that, that's to me where it's interesting. 260 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 5: So I'll ask because I know that, especially in football, 261 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 5: supposed to be like yourself, like Wentz, if you can 262 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 5: football and hockey, Yeah, if you can walk on upright, 263 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 5: then you've got to go on and play no matter 264 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 5: how bad it is. And yeah, I guess, but you know, 265 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 5: like Tennebe was saying, the guy that and maybe should 266 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 5: ask liber about this is Darisaw. 267 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 4: He's on his own self imposed pitch couch. 268 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 5: Sometimes he plays, sometimes he practices. 269 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree back, and he was in. 270 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 5: And out of the lineup a lot this now maybe 271 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 5: legitimately so because when you're coming back from major reconstructor 272 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 5: knee surgery but pulling yourself out of the game because 273 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 5: your hand you can't squeeze a football to throw it. Er, 274 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 5: Darrisaw was like that all year. So you know, I 275 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 5: had maybe Darris more QUI I think there's some truth 276 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 5: to that. 277 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 2: I was looking for the text though, Oh so I 278 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: don't know did you hear about this? 279 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 3: Because we're late but regarding B flow. 280 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 2: Because Johnny Athletic, he kind of threw out some stuff 281 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 2: that got people's attention that maybe there's more to the 282 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 2: B flow thing than just he wants to be a 283 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 2: head coach about the possibility of him leaving. So this 284 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 2: is apparently Bursuch was on with PA this morning. This 285 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: is what the texture guy writes, piecing team things together. 286 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: Maybe Bursuch was onto something the PA this morning when 287 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 2: he used an example of how meetings could get contentious 288 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 2: when coaches don't stay in their lane. The example was 289 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 2: a coach saying if they only had more turnovers, things 290 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 2: would look different. 291 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: Perhaps this was more than an example. 292 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 2: Ask Pete now, he may be putting two and two 293 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 2: together and coming up with six. 294 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 3: I don't know. He may be assuming some things. 295 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 2: I have no idea, but I keep getting this vibe 296 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 2: from people that there's a little more there than just 297 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 2: that he wants to be a head coach about the 298 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 2: possibility of why he hasn't already signed an extension. 299 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: So I don't know. 300 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 2: Maybe this will all go away tomorrow and they'll announce it. 301 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 2: And so, because I do think it would be a 302 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: pretty massive loss to this team if he goes someplace 303 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 2: else to be an assistant, to be a coordinator, and 304 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 2: don't they have to let them because isn't that considered 305 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 2: a lateral move? 306 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 5: And I think his contract does expired. Oh that's true. 307 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 5: You're right, he's yeah, and he could technically walk down. I 308 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 5: will admit I always thought, yeah, coordinators are important, but 309 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 5: you know what, they don't make that. 310 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 4: Big of a deal. 311 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 5: But I the Ben Johnson moved from Detroit over to 312 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 5: over to Chicago. Detroit was a first place team last night, 313 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 5: fifteen to two with an explosive offense, they go to 314 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 5: last place. The Bears were a last place team and 315 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 5: went to first place. Other than personnel changes and andreies change, 316 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 5: it was. 317 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 3: It's true. 318 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 4: It's of coordinator went there. 319 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 5: So yeah, bflow goes he's that probably wouldn't change the 320 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 5: uh the while this defense play. 321 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 2: Look around, be sure there's you got keys, check your keys, 322 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 2: got wallet check, you got your glasses, you're wearing them.

I'm now building a house on 358 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 2: a mountain side in Montana. An iHeart Radio app is 359 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 2: keeping me connected to those voices. Let's have some more 360 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 2: Super Show in the future.

Very sweet text, much appreciated, and we 362 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 2: get I think another testimonial to the versatility and greatness 363 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 2: of the iHeart and simplicity of the iHeartRadio app. And 364 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 2: when I say simple, I mean that in a way 365 00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 2: where I'm I'm denigrating myself. I think through guards you. 366 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 2: I don't exactly know how it got set up. I 367 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 2: ended up getting like a five minute opportunity on News 368 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 2: Nation one of their shows today. They wanted a kind 369 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 2: of a local reaction regarding the Walls story, and they 370 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 2: you know, it's TV, so everything's got to be visual 371 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 2: now when possible. So the idea was that, you know, 372 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 2: I got a text from the producer with a link 373 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 2: and he said, just click on the link and then 374 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 2: you'll be connected to us, and then we'll have we'll 375 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 2: get things going. And I'm thinking, well, even I might, 376 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 2: you know, I might be capable of pulling that off. 377 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 2: So I patiently wait for when I'm supposed to be 378 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 2: on about four to twenty I should say three no, 379 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 2: I should be back up two twenty three, twenty eastern. 380 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 2: And so he said, just do the link about two 381 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 2: ten your time and we should be good. So I 382 00:17:58,440 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: hit two ten right on the money. I'm right, I'm 383 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: gonna you know, I want to be I want to, 384 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 2: you know, follow their directions. And at two ten it 385 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 2: asks it says, you will you can't do this link 386 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 2: because you have not downloaded the I don't know is 387 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 2: it meetings app Zoom, one of them that I didn't. 388 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 3: Have on my my iPad. 389 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 2: So then I think, well, okay, I'll just download the app, 390 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 2: but then it starts asking me for passwords that I've 391 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 2: long forgotten that I can't remember. It says, well, if 392 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: you can't remember, it here's. 393 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 3: What we'll do. 394 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: Uh, well, we'll direct you. We'll give you your phone 395 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 2: a code. But then after I put that code in, 396 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 2: then it's then it asked for another code that was 397 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 2: internally in my phone relate different than the regular code. 398 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 2: So by the end of this is I've got to 399 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: text the guy either now minutes away from this thing 400 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 2: they've set up, they got a tight schedule, and I'm 401 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 2: going I've I've blown this. It's not going to work. 402 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 2: I can't get this thing to work. So probably not 403 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 2: their first rodeo. So the produce says, all right, well, 404 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 2: can you use your phone. 405 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 3: Instead? And I said, what is that? Can you do that? 406 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 2: He goes, well i't in a pinch, Yeah, well you know, 407 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 2: we'll do it. So he sent me the link there 408 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 2: and the first time again, I don't even think I 409 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 2: knew what I was doing. 410 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 3: I think I blundered into. 411 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 5: Finally getting it to where they could see me and 412 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 5: I could see them, and then I had to like 413 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 5: find the right Then they asked me to raise the 414 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 5: phone a little higher, so we ended up getting it done. 415 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 5: It was a nice discussion with the host. 416 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 2: But that's when I when I say easy, even I 417 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: can figure out the iHeart Radio app. It's not you know, 418 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: it's not as as hard as what I had to 419 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 2: do on this occasion, because anything that I'm not ready for, 420 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 2: I'd said I was going to text you. As it 421 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 2: turns out I didn't need you. But there's nothing to 422 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 2: the iHeart Radio app. It's free, it's easily downloadable. I 423 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: don't remember like having to put in any password when 424 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 2: I downloaded the app at all. And it's available to 425 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 2: you anywhere. So if you're building that sounds nice, by 426 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 2: the way, building a house on a mountain side in Montana, 427 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 2: that's not a bad gig. If you can get it right. 428 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 2: You have complete access to your hometown station. And you know, 429 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 2: again you got to remember, I'm a kid who had 430 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 2: to spend three lost years in Chattanooga, Tennessee when I 431 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 2: was like twelve years old, and I was a huge 432 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 2: sports Chicago sports groupe, and I had no opportunity. 433 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 3: You know, the opportunity I had to listen to Chicago teams. 434 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 2: Maybe at like ten o'clock at night, I might be 435 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 2: able to get WGN radio and they would go the 436 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: sigle would fade in and out with the wind or 437 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 2: whatever causes the thing to fade in or out. 438 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 3: That was it. I mean, I think about. 439 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 2: Little Danny Barrero having an iHeartRadio app to plug into 440 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 2: all my favorite shows back in Chicago, teams, whatever you 441 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: kidding me? So I'm glad that's worked out for four 442 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 2: oh six. Guy, I'm glad he enjoyed super show. And 443 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 2: if you have not, this should be as good an 444 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 2: advertisement as you can get for the free, free, free 445 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 2: and always improving iHeartRadio app. 446 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 3: Back in a minute. 447 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: Every game is a big game when it's Wild hockey. 448 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: You can feel the intensity and excitement at Grand Casino 449 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: Arena this season.

He will join in 454 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 2: studio now, Bonus. As we said, for all the obvious 455 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 2: reasons at five thirty, this very evening, five thirty tonight, 456 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 2: where was I We've already done the single Vikings talking 457 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 2: point off of this game. It's really been a discussion 458 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 2: point throughout the show. Do you are Nacho feel that 459 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 2: we as a fan base have a victim mentality everyone 460 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: Beman's not having Darnold this year? How do you think 461 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 2: the Jets feel they spent a top draft pick on him. 462 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 2: We clamor and demand a young high draft pick quarterback, 463 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,239 Speaker 2: then lack any patience to sit and to watch them 464 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 2: develop demanding instant results. Is the lack of a Super 465 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 2: Bowl contribute to this? I think that's Carl from Lake Elmo. 466 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 2: I'll try to describe it this way, Carl, because we've 467 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 2: talked about this several times on this show over the 468 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 2: course of this season. If the Vikings, if the average 469 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: Vikings fan is impatient, I think that was an inevitable 470 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 2: outcome to what has played out here for this franchise 471 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 2: over the course of the last now two seasons. Ordinarily, 472 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 2: when the young high draft pick quarterback comes in, the 473 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 2: team is coming off of three and fourteen season, and 474 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 2: the assumption is the team itself is not close to competing. Therefore, 475 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,360 Speaker 2: it becomes easier, I think, to accept the highs and 476 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 2: the discernible lows. What was utterly unfair to McCarthy, but 477 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 2: what was the reality of the situation because the Vikings 478 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 2: chose to go down this road, is that the Vikings 479 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 2: are coming off a fourteen to three season. It did 480 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 2: not end very well in the postseason, but there was 481 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 2: still a belief that there was a core of players 482 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 2: here and an opportunity, especially when you factored in the 483 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,080 Speaker 2: number of players they added in free agency, to make 484 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 2: this thing work again this season, and I think implicitly 485 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:10,719 Speaker 2: convey to your fan base the message that maybe the 486 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 2: normal rules regarding young quarterbacks won't apply here because of 487 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 2: all the talent we've surrounded him with. That was certainly 488 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 2: what koc was on record is saying, and I think 489 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 2: it's not surprising that the fans start believing it. And 490 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 2: that's why I don't blame those who are impatient. Because 491 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 2: the Vikings themselves made a bet and they lost the 492 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 2: bet for this season. Doesn't mean long term they've lost 493 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 2: a bet for McCarthy, but they've lost the bet for 494 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: this season. So I don't think it's an unwillingness to 495 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: be patient about a young quarterback. It's the combo platter 496 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 2: of a team coming off last year with that good 497 00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 2: of record and the unusual nature of your options that 498 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: you chose to ignore that included bringing back Sam Donald 499 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 2: long term probably not practical or franchise more practical, or 500 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, as we talked about yesterday, or Aaron Rodgers. 501 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 2: Sam Donald is not only in the playoffs. He won 502 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 2: the game that he didn't win a year ago. Now 503 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,360 Speaker 2: you could say it mainly because of a very good defense, 504 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 2: but he won it. So he did exactly what he 505 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 2: couldn't do for the Vikings a year ago, and they 506 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 2: are the number one seed Seattle. 507 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 3: On the NFC. 508 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 5: Side, Aaron Rodgers advanced to the playoffs with a virtuoso 509 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 5: performance last night in Baltimore. 510 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 2: Now you could say, if the kickers take care of business, 511 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 2: it's a different story, but the fact is they didn't. 512 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: He was terrific, probably the best he's played all season. 513 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 2: I think you right through for two hundred and seventy 514 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 2: five yards, we could have had him. Daniel Jones ends 515 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 2: up getting hurt, but was off to a very good 516 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 2: start before he ended up suffering the Achilles injury. So 517 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 2: all those are I think why it's a little more 518 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 2: complicated than saying, well, man, what's with this fan base? 519 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 2: Why can't we let this thing play out? Those are 520 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 2: all the reasons that in you know, after a season 521 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 2: that has led to these results, it may not be 522 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 2: quite that easier. Why it's I guess it's a little 523 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: bit more on the complicated side. We'll find out what 524 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 2: Lieber has to say about the McCarthy decision to pull 525 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 2: himself from the game, and maybe even some other issues. Bflow. 526 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 2: Is he automatically back? Is he worried about that? Any 527 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 2: questions for Nacho Rat Shawn Brian Kafan text line is 528 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 2: wide open at six four six. 529 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 3: It's
