Speaker 2: news story.
Speaker 1: Stop what you're doing.
Speaker 2: I listen.
Speaker 5: If you're watching the streamcafe dot com slash watch, the
Speaker 5: breaking news is, uh, Parker Fox is going to play
Speaker 5: for the University of River Falls next year.
Speaker 8: He's got the red. It's at least seeking eligibility. Any
Speaker 8: good lawyers around for football or basketball? Wherever they take me,
Speaker 8: I'm actually want to transition. Yeah, okay, you need an
Speaker 8: X receiver. We'll figure it out, all right, I'll call you.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 8: I can put on one hundred pounds too and play
Speaker 8: tight end, So you tell me whatever works. Did you
Speaker 8: ever play football growing up? I played it all the
Speaker 8: way up till sophomore year. So then I broke my
Speaker 8: hand my last game of sophomore year. I was like,
Speaker 8: I'm a basketball player anyways, so I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 8: focus on that.
Speaker 5: Parker is Samuel L. Jackson from Unbreakable. I just can't
Speaker 5: can't keep.
Speaker 8: Him last it was like the last play of my
Speaker 8: last ever football game. I went for a tackle, put
Speaker 8: my hand on the shoulder pad and then one of
Speaker 8: my linebacker teammates came in with the helmet and just
Speaker 8: crunched my hand between shoulder pad and helmet and coaches,
Speaker 8: you know.
Speaker 2: That's a break. Yeah, terrible.
Speaker 8: So I was like, yeah, I'm gonna just play basketball.
Speaker 8: I'm six or eight, two hundred pounds. I don't really
Speaker 8: have the size for football, so.
Speaker 1: That's a huge bitch.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's like a guard in the NBA. I know,
Speaker 2: right exactly. That's like what LaMelo ball is.
Speaker 8: It's crazy the way the NBA is kind of adjusted
Speaker 8: to that. But yeah, I loved it. I love football,
Speaker 8: played my whole life, played growing up. So this is
Speaker 8: pretty cool to have you in here, coach. This is awesome.
Speaker 7: And by the way, the coach he's talking about is
Speaker 7: Matt Walker, our friend, the head coach with the National champion.
Speaker 7: You w River Falls Falcons and thanks for coming in man,
Speaker 7: we appreciate it very much.
Speaker 2: This is amazing. Yeah, it's cool.
Speaker 7: So you were just talking to me a little bit
Speaker 7: out in the hall out there about your I guess
Speaker 7: you would call a coaching tree because you've either played with,
Speaker 7: gone to college with, or coached some really big wigs
Speaker 7: in a lot of different sports.
Speaker 2: Can you break down some of those for us? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Who are we? So? I heard you guys on the
Speaker 2: Brad Stevens connection. He saw him at Hooters once.
Speaker 9: I was telling Tranillon over here that he's the most
Speaker 9: surprising guy you'd ever He's Brad was always smarter than
Speaker 9: all of us and way more mature, and what an
Speaker 9: incredible He's an amazing, amazing He's a way better human
Speaker 9: than I am.
Speaker 2: And I always thought that. But yeah, he was from.
Speaker 9: Zionsville, right outside of Indianapolis, and we were playing you know,
Speaker 9: I knew each other. You know, we played against each
Speaker 9: other a lot conferdence on designs are near each other,
Speaker 9: but played basketball against each other a lot, and then
Speaker 9: our senior years were actually playing against each other. We're
Speaker 9: kind of finalized that we were going to go to
Speaker 9: Paul and he was going for basketball. I was going
Speaker 9: for football baseball, and by the time the game was
Speaker 9: over where we were decided we're doing it and we're
Speaker 9: going to be roommates, and our families met there. But
Speaker 9: I think we were The story was we were boxing
Speaker 9: want in him and I was the chaser. He's a
Speaker 9: great player and I held him to thirty two in
Speaker 9: the boxing. A nice yeah, But I think I think
Speaker 9: I missed the last second shot to win that game.
Speaker 9: I think they beat us. I think it actually was close,
Speaker 9: even though he dominated the game.
Speaker 2: Did you break your hand like Parker? Nope, nope, I
Speaker 2: was clean out of that one.
Speaker 9: But then we were talking Joe Shane as the GM
Speaker 9: of the New York Giants getting a lot of publicity.
Speaker 9: It can be good about Jo's a great, great dude.
Speaker 9: But jose ah An Elkhar, Indiana kid near where you were, yeh,
Speaker 9: and played for me at the ball and in incredible
Speaker 9: started just as a scout, I think, with the Panthers
Speaker 9: and the Dolphins and the Bills and now all.
Speaker 2: The way up to the GM of the Giants. And
Speaker 2: he played for you at DePaul Yep, yep, yep wow.
Speaker 9: And then uh well, Givar Jellette is the head strength
Speaker 9: and conditioning coordinator for I don't know it's exact title,
Speaker 9: but that's what he does for the Timberwolves here in town.
Speaker 2: And unbelievable played baseball for me, actually played baseball for me.
Speaker 2: He's my first baseman.
Speaker 9: The Chicago kid Matt Klein's a scout with the Brewers,
Speaker 9: played baseball for me. JaMarcus Shepherd's the head coach now
Speaker 9: at Oregon State. He was, he was the coach se
Speaker 9: at Alabama. He played wider. I was the wide receiver coach.
Speaker 9: Wasn't head coach, but he played a wide receiver for
Speaker 9: me at DePaul.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Cool, it's been quite a little run with DePaul. Guys.
Speaker 2: Look at you. That's sweet. Yeah, they're all making like
Speaker 2: a million dollars.
Speaker 9: But the yeah, I think they trade to do what
Speaker 9: I get to do every day and not deal with
Speaker 9: the messes they deal with.
Speaker 7: I can't imagine being the president of basketball operations.
Speaker 2: Well you get eight million dollars. They have to watch
Speaker 2: basketball though.
Speaker 9: It's funny, Brad, So whenever the Celtics come to town
Speaker 9: to play the Tender Roles, I you know, I'd go
Speaker 9: over and we have dinner and stuff. And he didn't
Speaker 9: always travel the team, but when he was coaching, he did,
Speaker 9: and then he became the gym.
Speaker 2: Well. Our first round playoff.
Speaker 9: Game against Chapman, guess seems ages ago now he gets
Speaker 9: told me that week he said, we're in town the Saturday.
Speaker 9: We played tender roles that Saturday night whenever. That was
Speaker 9: back in November, and he goes, I'm going to come
Speaker 9: to the game during the day. So he came to
Speaker 9: our first round playoff game during the day and then
Speaker 9: went to the basketing of that night. And then we're
Speaker 9: in the national Championship. Like ten or fifteen of our
Speaker 9: college crew that we ran with all came to the game,
Speaker 9: and I didn't know if he was gonna come. And
Speaker 9: he sends a picture of him and his wife, Tracy
Speaker 9: on on the airplane the day of the game to
Speaker 9: my wife and I said, not going to miss it
Speaker 9: on our way.
Speaker 2: That's awesome. He was in the stands with all the
Speaker 2: college buddies.
Speaker 9: Where was that game, Canton, that's right, Christad earlier camp
Speaker 9: that's spot Yeah, so.
Speaker 2: Cool, Mande.
Speaker 9: You know it rotates the sites and whoever has the
Speaker 9: bid that year.
Speaker 2: I'm so I feel so blessed. It was in Ken
Speaker 2: it was feud.
Speaker 9: It was freezing, but dad, it was like tropical for
Speaker 9: us because it was twenty Yeah.
Speaker 7: Okay, well you're getting all the buttons.
Speaker 5: Man, guy, this is great, But any requests for buttons,
Speaker 5: I don't want it to happen.
Speaker 9: I wouldn't want to, you know, ask, I wouldn't kind
Speaker 9: of like I wouldn't want to say like, oh, I'd
Speaker 9: love to do initials on.
Speaker 2: I mean, we could make that happen.
Speaker 9: Sometimes that seems pushy.
Speaker 7: The fact that you're here on a Wednesday and not
Speaker 7: a Friday is specifically because Chad Abbott booked you our
Speaker 7: boss yep, correct, Because if we had booked you, you'd
Speaker 7: definitely have been here on a fresh.
Speaker 5: Because I am convinced that this show only is on
Speaker 5: on Friday. My boss tells me all the time that
Speaker 5: there are shows Monday through Thursday.
Speaker 9: Well, if you guys ever need to fill in it,
Speaker 9: can tell me forty three minutes ahead of time.
Speaker 2: We can make it happen. I'm here. Deal, awesome, deal,
Speaker 2: that's yeah, that'd be great. Are you good at it?
Speaker 2: You'd be at least competitive?
Speaker 9: I think I could be competitive out there's times where
Speaker 9: I'm out tallying myself as we go, and I would
Speaker 9: I'm in the mix some days.
Speaker 8: Gotta bring you, gotta bring that confident energy in because
Speaker 8: I've only played it once and I've been playing it
Speaker 8: my whole life on you know, on the radio and
Speaker 8: in the car, and my first time ever playing I
Speaker 8: got the first one right and I felt I felt
Speaker 8: so good. I was like, this is exactly what I
Speaker 8: do in the car, the whole bit, and then I
Speaker 8: went a.
Speaker 9: Long I have to admit, so you know, I don't
Speaker 9: know if this bores you, guys, but so on front,
Speaker 9: you know, normally it's this seven fifteen to seven forty
Speaker 9: four whe I'm taking the kids to school.
Speaker 2: But the initials is later.
Speaker 9: Obviously, and that's the one day in season where we
Speaker 9: kind of take a break and come in later in
Speaker 9: the day. You know, the hay is in the barn,
Speaker 9: as you would say, so we let the staff come
Speaker 9: in later. So I sit usually in the parking lot
Speaker 9: during initials before I'm coming into the office. And my
Speaker 9: strategy is when as soon as I get them, I
Speaker 9: start writing down things that pop in my head that
Speaker 9: they could be.
Speaker 2: Is that what you guys? Do you have that strategy?
Speaker 5: I used to yeah, I don't like doing it anymore, gotcha,
Speaker 5: keep your mind clears whatever, scratch piece of papers and
Speaker 5: usually like a McDonald's re seat or something i'm writing down,
Speaker 5: I'm like, oh.
Speaker 9: I think this could be one that's okay. Yeah, but
Speaker 9: that's a strategy. Some people do that for sure. Yeah,
Speaker 9: I did a couple.
Speaker 8: And then it's like sometimes you hyper fixate on those
Speaker 8: ones and then you're missing you know, you're missing the
Speaker 8: other ones.
Speaker 9: And because there's times where I'm like, this should have
Speaker 9: been one you you screwed up, like.
Speaker 2: Screw up exactly.
Speaker 8: And then you start to get to know him and
Speaker 8: you know where his brain goes, where he's like trying
Speaker 8: to get you to one word where it's actually the
Speaker 8: other word, but it's the same, you know.
Speaker 5: So it's, uh, it's tough. See you've been here for
Speaker 5: what forty five minutes?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 5: The first forty three minutes chat I but it was
Speaker 5: like this radio is just fantastic. The last two minutes
Speaker 5: he hates. Why did I book this guy at all? No,
Speaker 5: we'll do that sometimes. Pablo Lopez the Twins in two days.
Speaker 5: I'm super pumped for that. I've heard he's a super
Speaker 5: nice guy. And my sources say he might be sneaky
Speaker 5: at this game as well, so we'll find out. Oh
Speaker 5: but we've never met him, so he'll be here almost
Speaker 5: exactly right now, seven to sixteen ish or so.
Speaker 7: On Friday, Coach, you mentioned that you've gotten calls about
Speaker 7: players and you, and I'm sure that happens all the time.
Speaker 2: Have you gotten calls about you? Good question, good question.
Speaker 9: I'm an honor I take pride in being super honest person. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 9: I've had some call. I'm not trying to get out
Speaker 9: of her falls. We got something so special that I
Speaker 9: think we can win it all again next year. We
Speaker 9: got such a good team coming back, and so you're
Speaker 9: going to get the standard answer here. But I'm not
Speaker 9: actively trying to get out of her falls. I have
Speaker 9: gotten some phone calls, but it's got to be a
Speaker 9: life changing thing. It's got to be something more. My
Speaker 9: players and administration and these people that have backed me
Speaker 9: for fifteen years would understand me taking I'm not going
Speaker 9: to just jumped anything. But yeah, the phone has been
Speaker 9: ringing pretty good.
Speaker 7: This may surprise you, but Sauce and I both have
Speaker 7: all of our eligibility left.
Speaker 10: I have to I mean I have to get in.
Speaker 10: I don't know if I have to get eligible.
Speaker 9: We can help you some appeal letters and letters of recommendations.
Speaker 7: And see out of my right eye and my left
Speaker 7: knees been replaced. But other than that, I'm great.
Speaker 2: We'll put the left side. I'm almost back to my
Speaker 2: high school. I'll text you guys. We're going to need
Speaker 2: a bigger helmet. I like to sit on the bench
Speaker 2: with the hot chocolate. You could be famously the in
Speaker 2: guard and tackles right.
Speaker 9: You sit on the end of the bench and guard
Speaker 9: the water and tackling has to take it right.
Speaker 8: I want the fans to come at Sauce the way
Speaker 8: he comes at well. I want the fans to get
Speaker 8: as angry at Sauce as the way Sauce gets angry
Speaker 8: at our Vikings team and have that same animosity.
Speaker 2: So you better have some thick skin. I know you do,
Speaker 2: but he's terrible.
Speaker 10: Yeah. I tweet that a lot. As long as I
Speaker 10: can sit on the bench at my phone.
Speaker 2: I'm in. You can do whatever you want to appreciate that.
Speaker 2: So what is your conference? What is your division? Such
Speaker 2: like that? Yeah, we're in the Wisconsin League.
Speaker 9: I don't think anyone argues it's the best league in
Speaker 9: the country.
Speaker 2: It's really unique.
Speaker 9: Whitewaters had an historical run with national championships, the Cross
Speaker 9: had a run in the nineties with national championships.
Speaker 2: Platteville won the league last year.
Speaker 9: Lashkosh has been to the national title, you know, within
Speaker 9: ten years ago. So yeah, it's just it's it's there's
Speaker 9: no you know, the Badgers are the only Division one
Speaker 9: football school in the state.
Speaker 2: It's great football. And then they're the only scholarship school.
Speaker 9: So a lot of a lot of I say, scholarship
Speaker 9: caliber kids walking around, you know, being a state school
Speaker 9: are our Our total price tag is driven down enough
Speaker 9: to where I can win head to head against Division
Speaker 9: two's and partial scholarship scs. Is in recruiting, you know,
Speaker 9: it's at the top end of the class. I'm really
Speaker 9: recruiting more against the Division two world in our league,
Speaker 9: against Saint John's and Bethel a little bit over here,
Speaker 9: but not really anybody else in this side of the river.
Speaker 2: But and you guys don't travel too all too far there.
Speaker 9: No, our Minnesota kids get in state tuition with US
Speaker 9: called reciprocity tuition. It's a few I say, we charge
Speaker 9: them a few hundred bucks to be Vikings fans and
Speaker 9: still get into our school in state tuition. But you know,
Speaker 9: everyone's looking for new pockets these days in recruiting. Chicago's
Speaker 9: a nice answer for a lot of our league. But
Speaker 9: we're the only ones with the airport that work, you know,
Speaker 9: like we're twenty eight miles away and.
Speaker 2: Can so you guys have reciprocity with Illinois as well.
Speaker 9: No, we have what's called Midwest Exchange with some of
Speaker 9: the Midwest states that were it's still is at a
Speaker 9: reduced costs, so it's it's a really good deal. It's
Speaker 9: still it's barely over twenty thousand dollars for total cost,
Speaker 9: which is almost unheard of in the four year traditional
Speaker 9: journey these days. But we go to Arizona with the airport,
Speaker 9: it's been a We have double digit kids from Arizona
Speaker 9: on our team.
Speaker 2: And wow, what percentage of your team is from Wisconsin.
Speaker 9: Though, we're like dead center forty five forty five Wisconsin
Speaker 9: and kind of ten percent this out of state group.
Speaker 2: So our packer Viking days.
Speaker 9: Are interesting, sure, sure, And I have no skin like
Speaker 9: I again, I'm an Indian now, I was actually a
Speaker 9: Dolphins fan because I love Dan Marino more than life itself.
Speaker 9: But I was the bandwagon Peyton Manning era with the Colts.
Speaker 2: We didn't have the Colts when we were growing up.
Speaker 7: I'm a little older than you. I'm six years older
Speaker 7: than you. I think I'm fifty five old, are you?
Speaker 7: I'm forty eight.
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit older than that. That then it's
Speaker 2: like always, but we didn't have the Colts when I
Speaker 2: was growing up. I was a Bengals fan, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they remember the fame.
Speaker 9: They left in the middle of the night for Baltimore,
Speaker 9: the night head over that unbelievable.
Speaker 7: Yeah, crazy stuff. So we were obviously talking about traveling.
Speaker 7: What about like you guys obviously have to travel by bus.
Speaker 7: You don't have to travel too far, at least you're
Speaker 7: when you're not in the playoffs yet, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what?
Speaker 9: The white Water Platteviloshchester all about four hours. Yeah, along
Speaker 9: the trips and then we were so lucky. You know,
Speaker 9: I don't pretend things didn't fall in place for us
Speaker 9: in this playoff run. We're the college football playoffs at
Speaker 9: our level is a lot like the college basketball There's
Speaker 9: four quadrants with it's forty teams instead of sixty four
Speaker 9: of us.
Speaker 2: Some buys, but we're the two seed in our quadrant.
Speaker 9: The one seed lost round one, so which gave us
Speaker 9: home field advantage the rest of the way.
Speaker 2: The one seed in the quadrant above.
Speaker 9: Us, which is who we would filter do for the semifinal,
Speaker 9: they lost, so and we were higher ranked than the
Speaker 9: other two seats, so we had home field advantage the
Speaker 9: entire way to the National Championships.
Speaker 2: We hosted four home playoff games in this run. That's wow.
Speaker 9: That hopes and our home atmospheres are oh you guys
Speaker 9: know bananas. Yeah, it's bananas at our place. Incredible.
Speaker 2: That's pretty cool.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 2: What a season and now you get to do it
Speaker 2: all again.
Speaker 9: I got to get back to work here. So this,
Speaker 9: this media tour has been something they got to get
Speaker 9: back to. Over recruited kid again here.
Speaker 2: Well, hey, if you want to play, you know, they
Speaker 2: can reach out to you. They'll listen to you know.
Speaker 7: We got some great players listen to us right now
Speaker 7: and want to reach out.
Speaker 9: This is our hotbedd this is Minneapolis series been for us.
Speaker 2: All right, saws do sports.
Speaker 5: When we come back, we can talk a little football
Speaker 5: as well the AFC and NFC title games just a
Speaker 5: handful of days away.
Speaker 7: I want you to say some controversial things about JJ
Speaker 7: McCarthy too.
Speaker 2: Could you work that up for me, please, Saucer, Matt
Speaker 2: finding to me. You want Matt J. McCarthy. I want
Speaker 2: him to be controversial.
Speaker 9: He's altered, talented. Yes, it hasn't gone his way. Yeah,
Speaker 9: get to be patient, right, I gotta say that patient?
Speaker 2: Okay, all right? Happy birthday? Right? That's right?
Speaker 5: All right, sass Walkers through sports after this. Matt Walker,
Speaker 5: the coach of the champion D three football squad from
Speaker 5: River Falls, is here.
Speaker 2: Parker Fox is here, Mark Parrish is here. This is
Speaker 2: the Power Trim Morning Show on Nothing. Hey, welcome back everybody.
Speaker 7: Cast the thousands over there, Mark Parrish, h Parker Fox,
Speaker 7: hi out head football coach of that you double River
Speaker 7: Falls Falcons national champions.
Speaker 2: Our new friend is and studio with us as well.
Speaker 2: Sauc's over here with me and Corey's over there, cast
Speaker 2: of thousands. As I said, and it's time for some sports.
Speaker 1: It's time for a fan five on the Power Trip,
Speaker 1: presented by all Around your Timber Tech deck building contractor.
Speaker 10: Banks all around the Minnesota Timberwolves loss. It's a ten
Speaker 10: and a half point favorite to the awful Jazz one
Speaker 10: twenty seven to one twenty two for their third straight loss.
Speaker 2: Ant had thirty eight in the loss.
Speaker 10: They battle the Bulls tomorrow night at seven o'clock.
Speaker 8: Yeah, they're finally back home, which is helpful. Four game
Speaker 8: road trip. I was talking with Paul Allen about this
Speaker 8: is you gotta go get two or three. You're playing
Speaker 8: some good teams, but you toss terrible, so that that's
Speaker 8: kind of an unexcusable loss. Anthony Edwards played well, but
Speaker 8: you got to have everybody show up last game of
Speaker 8: the road trip. And now you're back home. You get
Speaker 8: Chicago Golden State for a couple of home ones, so
Speaker 8: hopefully they bounce back.
Speaker 2: But losing three on the road, that's that's tough.
Speaker 5: Blew a big lead too. I think they had like
Speaker 5: something like an eleven or twelve point lead in the
Speaker 5: fourth and something called Keyante George had a career high.
Speaker 2: Forty three for two. Yeah, he's been hooping. People were
Speaker 2: actually kind of on him.
Speaker 8: They thought he was like point shaving because you know,
Speaker 8: he was like turning the ball over early in the season,
Speaker 8: like random little turnovers and over the last three four
Speaker 8: weeks he's been playing like at an all star level
Speaker 8: forty three points. Last night he goes fifteen for twenty
Speaker 8: eight from the field. So a young guy who's gotten
Speaker 8: an opportunity and you tall, they're not very good, so
Speaker 8: he gets to get the shots up. And they got
Speaker 8: some other pieces too. With Ace Bailey, who was at
Speaker 8: Rutgers last year to play against him, Yeah, he's phenomenal.
Speaker 2: Oh mcinness, he just killed it. I remember I got an.
Speaker 8: Isolation against him last year and he looked at me
Speaker 8: and just like smirked and then hit a step back
Speaker 8: three and I was like, oh god, it's gonna be
Speaker 8: a long night. So yeah, one of those deals. But no,
Speaker 8: Wolve's back home, so hopefully they can find way. They've
Speaker 8: had Chicago's number and Golden State Jimmy Butler just tore
Speaker 8: his ACL so they're kind of struggling as well. So
Speaker 8: three home ones's let's try to get all three of those.
Speaker 10: How about the latest rumor, Parker that Karl Anthony Towns
Speaker 10: is going to be traded in a salary dump?
Speaker 2: Yeah, can you believe that? Let's take him?
Speaker 8: I mean yeah, I would, I would love him back here.
Speaker 8: I don't know if we'd be just gonna pick on
Speaker 8: that contrast. I just don't get that sauce, Like it
Speaker 8: doesn't make It doesn't make sense to me with especially
Speaker 8: with the chances that New York has this year, like
Speaker 8: the East is wide open. Besides the Cavaliers, I feel
Speaker 8: like they're they're the favorite. So I don't know that
Speaker 8: one doesn't make sense to me. I understand they have
Speaker 8: a lot of guys, they have to pay a lot
Speaker 8: of money, but I just don't understand when when Kat's
Speaker 8: a seven foot that shoots the three ball at forty
Speaker 8: five percent, why you want to move on from him.
Speaker 10: So I think they're like dead last or one of
Speaker 10: the worst defensive teams in the league.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes sense.
Speaker 5: Well, let's not forget to Brad Stevens and the Boston Celtics.
Speaker 5: They're doing this without Tatum is Well, that's true, and
Speaker 5: he's and he's kicking out. He says he wants to
Speaker 5: come back and play at the end of the season.
Speaker 9: Here.
Speaker 8: I don't know how realistic that truly is, but there's
Speaker 8: been videos surface of him, you know, dunking and going
Speaker 8: through workouts in the whole bit. Now that's a whole
Speaker 8: different beast than being out on the court and and everything.
Speaker 8: And I'm sure Brad's sitting there a position like this
Speaker 8: is my superstar. We don't want to just let him
Speaker 8: go out there and rehurt himself. But yeah, the Celtics
Speaker 8: are a sneaky little team. You know, Jaylen Brown's been
Speaker 8: holding it down over there.
Speaker 10: The Wild lost four to three to the Canadians. Montreal
Speaker 10: scored with like fifteen seconds left in the game. Your
Speaker 10: Wild host the Red Wings tomorrow, Perry at eight thirty.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's time for the Hockey Minute with Mark Parrish.
Speaker 2: Go Huskies. Yes, tough one last night.
Speaker 4: It was a good road trip though for the whild
Speaker 4: obviously they win two of three. Would have been nice
Speaker 4: to get the sweep last night in Montreal. Montreal caught
Speaker 4: him with a little bit tired legs early. The Wild
Speaker 4: we were able to battle back Tarasenko. Vladimir Tarasenko got
Speaker 4: a couple, so the depth still chipping in well. Valstad
Speaker 4: looked good. Unfortunately, Cole Cawfield, the absolute sniper from Wisconsin,
Speaker 4: buried his twenty fifth of the year. Just got a
Speaker 4: little bit, just got loose, so that fifteen seconds left.
Speaker 4: But hey, you get two on the road, that's a
Speaker 4: great road trip. Come on back home, get some home cooking,
Speaker 4: and start winning at home.
Speaker 2: That's my man.
Speaker 5: Remember when sant Cloud stayed on a football team, good time,
Speaker 5: great sum What happened to it?
Speaker 2: Well, they all went to River Falls Pastures. College budget cuts.
Speaker 2: It is unfortunate.
Speaker 4: Why, Yeah, that was too bad.
Speaker 2: Heat to see that, Todd Bowman, right, absolutely, yeah, he
Speaker 2: was there when I was there. At least a love.
Speaker 4: He just threw the ball so hard he gets sling
Speaker 4: in just a cannon, just picked those d apart.
Speaker 8: And then it's always tough when those kind of schools
Speaker 8: don't work because it's like an hour hour and a
Speaker 8: half from the city, Like you can recruit all this,
Speaker 8: you know, talent in the city.
Speaker 2: And well, Matt Walker, that's right.
Speaker 3: They got rid of homecomings because at one homecoming got
Speaker 3: really uh rowdy one year and they got rid of
Speaker 3: the homecoming football game.
Speaker 2: And that didn't help either. No, what people partied, you believe.
Speaker 3: That to be fair, it was borderline rioty riety. There
Speaker 3: were there were couches burning and all that.
Speaker 2: But yeah, great song.
Speaker 4: Well the rugby party every year too, used to be
Speaker 4: insane rugby rugby. Part of it was just out of
Speaker 4: the field. Somebody steal just a ton of kegs. Do
Speaker 4: they burn couches?
Speaker 11: Uh?
Speaker 2: I don't remember the fair enough.
Speaker 5: How many colleges in the Midwest have rugby teams?
Speaker 2: Almost none. Maybe somebody just lied to you they did well.
Speaker 4: It might have been I mean, I don't know if
Speaker 4: it was the official sinklu like interview or something.
Speaker 10: Yeah, the Gopher men's basketball team Parker lost eighty two
Speaker 10: seventy four to the Ohio State University. They've lost four straight.
Speaker 10: They're ten and nine, believe it or not. They only
Speaker 10: have twelve games left in the regular season. They battle
Speaker 10: seventh rank Nebraska on Saturday. Our guy Freddie Hoiberg.
Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, seventh rank Nebraska, look at the mayor of
Speaker 5: Freddie Hoiberg.
Speaker 8: But overtime last night. Yeah, and it only gets more difficult.
Speaker 8: You got to play with Nebraska, who saw us the
Speaker 8: top ten team in the nation, and then you got
Speaker 8: to go to Wisconsin who just beat you on your
Speaker 8: home court. So the toughness of the Big ten it is,
Speaker 8: it's unbelievable. Every night, night in, night out, and this
Speaker 8: is the time of the year where her reffs start,
Speaker 8: you know, putting their whistle in their pockets a little bit,
Speaker 8: and it gets a little bit more physical and you
Speaker 8: get more bumps and bruises. And the Gophers are in
Speaker 8: a situation that where they only have a seven man rotation,
Speaker 8: they really only want to play five guys.
Speaker 2: So you're talking about you're talking about your five guys
Speaker 2: are the best occasion? Tommy them for false advertising? Oh yeah, Tommy.
Speaker 2: Tommy went in there. It was like, where are the guys? Are?
Speaker 2: I want food? Yes? He does. The NFL Final four
Speaker 2: is set.
Speaker 5: Hey, we go back for one second, but I just
Speaker 5: want to keep stacking this exact same take for the
Speaker 5: last hour.
Speaker 2: Please, Matt Walker check this out.
Speaker 5: Freddie Hoiberg get Nebraska right, Ye, you're one seven and
Speaker 5: twenty five, year two, seven and twenty year three, ten
Speaker 5: and twenty two.
Speaker 2: Now he's eighteen and er unbelievable, right, he probably shouldn't
Speaker 2: have survived.
Speaker 5: Right in the prized he did? I know, but look,
Speaker 5: I love Freddy. He's such a great dude. He's always
Speaker 5: been super nice. Eighteen and zher and what are they?
Speaker 2: Seventh? Is that what you said? Sauce? Yeah, seventh ranked
Speaker 2: team in the country. Yes, seventeen two.
Speaker 9: There's part of it like if you're I'm not saying
Speaker 9: this about me and getting preaching here, but if you're
Speaker 9: a good person and a good guy and have good energy,
Speaker 9: it seems that's what he seems like. Yeah, it seems
Speaker 9: like it buys you some flexibility. I like to think
Speaker 9: I'm easy to work with and bring something to the
Speaker 9: table because it's a profession of wackos at times. Right,
Speaker 9: I feel I feel like a normal dude in a
Speaker 9: profession of wackos at times, for sure.
Speaker 2: But I think it buys you some some leeway. Yeah, Corey, Yes, sir.
Speaker 3: And also is a nice guy six and four twenty
Speaker 3: twenty five, JJ McCarthy nice. You imagine what we're going
Speaker 3: to get in twenty six twenty seven.
Speaker 5: So you're preaching patients with JJ's are saying patient is
Speaker 5: nine a nice guy?
Speaker 8: No, because a bad okay boy, We're.
Speaker 2: Okay, We're okay, We're okay, We're okay. It might be good.
Speaker 2: Everybody get back up the rails. Hoiburg is excellent.
Speaker 8: And You're right, Corey, he really struggled, and I think
Speaker 8: they were ready to move on and now you see
Speaker 8: the change they've made. And those Nebraska fans are crazy,
Speaker 8: like they are some of the craziest fans in the country.
Speaker 8: They got it rolling, and it'd be fun to see
Speaker 8: Nebraska in like a Sweet sixteen or a Final four,
Speaker 8: like Reddy Hoiberg back on the big stage would be excellent.
Speaker 2: Margaret versus Holy there you go.
Speaker 10: Who's the best team in college basketball? Maybe not the
Speaker 10: number one ranked team, but is there like a Florida
Speaker 10: this year?
Speaker 2: I know there isn't.
Speaker 8: There isn't a Florida who's just gonna overwhelm you with
Speaker 8: their death. I really love Iowa State. They went into
Speaker 8: Purdue and beat them by almost thirty points. And I
Speaker 8: know this is biased because Taylor's brother plays for Iowa State,
Speaker 8: but they have all the pieces. I think, as you
Speaker 8: guys know, once you look at the marsh Madness kind
Speaker 8: of situation, you have to have a really good lead guard,
Speaker 8: and Taman Lipsey is a lead guard that that's as
Speaker 8: good as they come in the country.
Speaker 2: And then you got to have a front court.
Speaker 8: They got a kid in Jefferson who's absolutely excellent, and
Speaker 8: then they have this kid off the bench. He's a
Speaker 8: French guard he's going to be a top fifteen pick
Speaker 8: in the NBA draft and tore people don't really.
Speaker 2: Know about him coming off the bench. Coming off the bench.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so they have all potential, all potential, and they
Speaker 8: have a lot of depth. I think they're number two
Speaker 8: or three in the country. Are now playing in the
Speaker 8: Big Twelve. So that's a tough conference. You know, you
Speaker 8: always have to look at Purdue, but but they never
Speaker 8: seem to finish it up. I got Iowa State this
Speaker 8: year and maybe that's biased, so I can go to
Speaker 8: the Final.
Speaker 2: Four as well.
Speaker 7: But who hey, Matt Walker, Ye, you remember when it
Speaker 7: was what it was like to be young and have
Speaker 7: all that memory like that.
Speaker 2: I mean, Parker's just going crazy over there. I'm next
Speaker 2: time I'm marveled at and he's doing.
Speaker 7: He's doing television for hockey.
Speaker 2: Wow, was that awesome?
Speaker 8: Park I think it comes from my fiance a little bit,
Speaker 8: but no, so my fiance Taylor, he one hockey player.
Speaker 8: And I'm doing my first ever like official hockey kind
Speaker 8: of commentary this week. I've never done it before. I
Speaker 8: always been a basketball guy. So people that are watching
Speaker 8: hockey to Minnesota has some patience with me. I'm a
Speaker 8: best of things out, you know, Perry. I just asked Taylor,
Speaker 8: I said, what's the half wall yesterday? So so we're
Speaker 8: learned a couple of things here. You're gonna be by
Speaker 8: my emergency contact.
Speaker 2: I'm there for one of the things.
Speaker 9: I feel the most fortunate about moving here because this
Speaker 9: this became home my entire life. India, there's not much
Speaker 9: hockey right again. The Indianapolis Ice was the feeder for
Speaker 9: the Blackhawks for a while, and I do some of that.
Speaker 9: No hockey move up here and and to become a
Speaker 9: part of hockey cult. My daughter was was just a
Speaker 9: youngster when we got up here, my oldest uh, and
Speaker 9: she went right into hockey, played ice hockey, was in
Speaker 9: All State player confusion, got played in the state title
Speaker 9: game and whoa, and my son now is playing we
Speaker 9: our bantam team took one on the chan over in
Speaker 9: Minnesota last night and it's Saint Mary Point.
Speaker 2: But it's so fun to be a part of this
Speaker 2: hockey culture.
Speaker 9: And then at our place, our women's hockey team is
Speaker 9: back to back national champions.
Speaker 2: And number one again.
Speaker 9: Wowow great hockey and her it's a it's an amazing
Speaker 9: hockey town. Our our arenas we've host we've blucked out.
Speaker 9: We've hosted the last two. It's Saturgate Arena, we've hosted
Speaker 9: the last year, and we've won the last two national
Speaker 9: championship on home ice.
Speaker 2: Unbelievable falls. Let's go.
Speaker 5: Nobody knows hockey like the state of Minnesota, and here
Speaker 5: to prove it.
Speaker 2: Here to explain.
Speaker 5: The half wall is the fans Paul meet Sauce Lambert.
Speaker 10: Is the half wall the wall behind the like the goalie,
Speaker 10: like you played off the half wall where you can
Speaker 10: like kind of shoot it in a roll around.
Speaker 2: That's the back wall. It is the half wall. The
Speaker 2: side wall. You're getting there on the side, like right
Speaker 2: by where the players sit. I mean that's that's the bench.
Speaker 4: And that's the bench and you know kind of center
Speaker 4: ice area, more neutral zone the bench.
Speaker 2: You're getting close warming Could I guess? And I don't know.
Speaker 2: Can I get about mighty ducks. I'm gonna get mighty ducks.
Speaker 5: I'm admitting I don't know, but I'm going to guess.
Speaker 5: Give us you're educated. I'm gonna guess. It's halfway between
Speaker 5: both ends. It's the wall that's at the halfway point.
Speaker 5: That is close. I had no idea that.
Speaker 2: Is closer, closer than behind the goaling. Yes, me, the
Speaker 2: half wall is between the goal line and the blue line.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there the half wall in the policy. Yep, wingers
Speaker 4: are on the half wall. So yeah, it's it's you.
Speaker 4: You were on the right track. Cory got it, thank you.
Speaker 4: Sachs was getting there.
Speaker 2: There was halfway between the things that he said. Thank you.
Speaker 9: Cool.
Speaker 5: So, yeah, you're gonna say some half wall nonsense on
Speaker 5: the broadcast, but you'll figure it out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll be all right.
Speaker 8: We're doing nine thirty am we got Hastings Girls versus
Speaker 8: Park Cottage Grove Girls, and then four thirty pm we
Speaker 8: got Saint Thomas Academy versus Rock Ridge, which is Virginia
Speaker 8: Mountain people.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, those kind of Maddy Niskanen, Yeah, niscan
Speaker 4: is the head coach up there, and Dallas star teammate.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I told him your story about the half wall,
Speaker 8: not the half wall. They pimped out his old Toyota camera.
Speaker 8: It was and some good memories came from that. Yeah,
Speaker 8: what are you doing the game Hasting's girls game?
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 9: Our athletic director Crystal Landing, and I mentioned her daughter's
Speaker 9: the goalie for the Aston's girls team.
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
Speaker 8: I think they have a commit to maybe A River
Speaker 8: Falls commit in there, so that's correct.
Speaker 2: That's awesome. Yeah, let's go awesome. We got some lead
Speaker 2: box on those games.
Speaker 8: We got carts. He's going to be there. And then
Speaker 8: I think La Panta's doing some as well. That's pretty
Speaker 8: cool around fun all my hockey guys. I'm fired up.
Speaker 2: Jack of all trades Parker, so proud of you. I'm
Speaker 2: proud of you. How hard you work?
Speaker 9: Man?
Speaker 2: God? What's that like?
Speaker 8: Yeah? You tear some a cls but it adds up there.
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 5: All right, Vikings News when we come back, we'll kind
Speaker 5: of turn it into NFL news because there's some NFL news.

Speaker 6: Go ahead, who's a go ahead? Color career caprice off correct? Yes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 6: that's a a good bet. Just send the tickets via whatever.
Speaker 1: You have a guess?
Speaker 2: Chat Abbott, you skate with drop foot? I don't think
Speaker 2: you can a goalie? Any other guesses?
Speaker 5: Kessler guards he although he probably has played for every team.
Speaker 2: Probably has. Yeah, anybody else you the Guards?
Speaker 5: You ever play tennis at River Falls? Probably probably did.
Speaker 8: You're gonna go to the eight to thirty puck drop
Speaker 8: versus the Red Wigs, Cory, when is that Thursday?
Speaker 2: Thursday?
Speaker 5: I mean my car is going to be in the
Speaker 5: driveway freezing, so I doubt it will start.
Speaker 2: I probably won't be able to get there. You can
Speaker 2: go to the Frost game to night at six pm.
Speaker 2: I go to the Frost game. I play that game
Speaker 2: every morning. This morning it was freaking cold.
Speaker 4: It's time for Yeah, thank you, rad Co presented by
Speaker 4: all Right.
Speaker 5: We led with this a couple hours ago. This is
Speaker 5: like kind of minor news now, but it's technically an update.
Speaker 5: The Florida State Attorney dropped the charges against Jordan Addison
Speaker 5: for trespassing at the casino. Technically, I guess at the
Speaker 5: noodle bar at the Seminal Hard Rock Hotel and Casino
Speaker 5: near Tampa, so.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't leave the bar.
Speaker 5: We still don't know why, and then didn't want to
Speaker 5: quite leave the casino and had to be redirected multiple times.
Speaker 2: But charges dropped, So no harm, no foul there. Shout
Speaker 2: out to Sandra Bullock and the movie Gravity.
Speaker 5: Addison's agent last week said he was weighing options about
Speaker 5: filing a lawsuit over false arrest.
Speaker 2: But maybe that just goes away now to who knows.
Speaker 5: So I would assume, and if you assume, you make
Speaker 5: an asset of Uma Thurman. But if you assume that
Speaker 5: this is all over with, my guess is the Vikings
Speaker 5: don't punish him.
Speaker 2: The Vikings just move on.
Speaker 5: But I still would argue the same thing when this
Speaker 5: came out that even though it sounds like it's much
Speaker 5: ado about nothing now, it is still another head scratcher
Speaker 5: where you're like, is this the guy we want to
Speaker 5: give a lot of money to because they have to
Speaker 5: make a decision about do we sign him to a
Speaker 5: long term extension? Do we give him a whole bunch
Speaker 5: of money, or do we trade him?
Speaker 2: Do we just let him go after his fourth year?
Speaker 2: What do we do with Jordan Adison?
Speaker 8: Yeah, Well, it's the same thing coach is talking about.
Speaker 8: It's like doing the right thing, being a good person,
Speaker 8: like it's gonna it's gonna help you. And he's put
Speaker 8: himself non positions over and over again, not saying he's
Speaker 8: a bad person, but he's not doing the right thing.
Speaker 8: You don't show up to you know, walk through or
Speaker 8: whatever it is, and you get in trouble like things
Speaker 8: are you're gonna have it's consequences for those things.
Speaker 2: So what do you do? Coach?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: What do you? What do you do? Boy?
Speaker 9: It's a hard one because the same people that are
Speaker 9: gonna question you on guys making mistakes are the same
Speaker 9: ones that want you to beat the Bears and the
Speaker 9: Packers and these good players help you beat them, right,
Speaker 9: it's such a hard thing to deal with. I can't
Speaker 9: imagine at the professional level. You know, I got a
Speaker 9: little bit more of a tighter grip on guys, and
Speaker 9: the freshmen are still scared of me. I can't imagine
Speaker 9: professional sports. These guys are you know, the money they're making,
Speaker 9: and yeah, that's it's their life, you know, it's it's
Speaker 9: their job at Oh god, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm nervous to give an answer here.
Speaker 7: Well, you're getting all these costs from Tennessee Titans. They
Speaker 7: better figure it out. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 9: This whole group of people that help you with these
Speaker 9: crisis management situations in these situations occur.
Speaker 2: But got he's such a good player, right, my god,
Speaker 2: he's so fun to watch. Sauce, What do you do?
Speaker 10: I think you trade him, and I think you find
Speaker 10: another wide receiver. I don't know if the contracts work
Speaker 10: or whatever. But like somebody like an aj Brown who's
Speaker 10: arguing with his coach in the middle of a playoff.
Speaker 2: Can you have Jordan and a Brown?
Speaker 10: But somebody like that. But I just think that you're
Speaker 10: not going to pay him. You took him? What twenty third. Overall,
Speaker 10: you'd probably like to get something for him. And as
Speaker 10: we've brought up a lot, you have Jalen Naylor who
Speaker 10: can play and is probably ready to make me step
Speaker 10: into that second wide receiver role. Not that it's easy
Speaker 10: to play wide receiver, but it's easier when you get
Speaker 10: to play with a guy like Justin Jefferson and they
Speaker 10: need the cap space they need play like I think
Speaker 10: they trade.
Speaker 11: Him it' zauce. Thanks man, Thanks, I agree, Thanks that guy. Yeah,
Speaker 11: I don't know.
Speaker 2: So do you get much time to watch professional football? Coach?
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's on. The in season grind we have is
Speaker 9: almost unexplainable to people. I can't imagine you're I think
Speaker 9: I've been home before midnight a couple of times in
Speaker 9: seasons crazy and Sunday, the player's day off for us,
Speaker 9: is our biggest workday, so we're in the office, so
Speaker 9: we do have the games on in the background when
Speaker 9: we're in the office all day Sunday, so we get
Speaker 9: to watch some.
Speaker 5: But all right, so who do you like? Let's go
Speaker 5: through this. The AFC Championship game is Sunday at two o'clock.
Speaker 5: The New England Patriots are at the Denver Broncos, and
Speaker 5: before I get your take on that game, let's just
Speaker 5: try it again.
Speaker 2: We're gonna try it all week.
Speaker 5: The quarterback of the Denver Broncos sauce for the AFC
Speaker 5: Title Game is Jared Didham. God he got it. Took
Speaker 5: him three days, but we got there. You can retain
Speaker 5: it for the next two days. That is still in question,
Speaker 5: but noil the Jarretts. Didham is the quarterback. So Drake
Speaker 5: May versus Diidham on Sunday?
Speaker 2: Who do you like?
Speaker 9: I gotta go Patriots And that's hard from this lifelong
Speaker 9: time in Indianapolis with the Manning Brady call, It's hard
Speaker 9: to root for the Patriots for anything.
Speaker 2: But I got Brad.
Speaker 9: Stevens in Boston that helps. Can you bet against them
Speaker 9: this week? But don't you feel terrible for the Broncos.
Speaker 9: It's awful.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels terrible.
Speaker 5: Oh those guys, like specifically Saws hates Sean Payton so much,
Speaker 5: and I don't think he feels bad for the Broncos
Speaker 5: at all.
Speaker 2: Man, I don't want the kid hurt.
Speaker 9: But that's for about Nicks because that was fun. They
Speaker 9: were fun to watch. That was Hopefully this kid can
Speaker 9: get it going and we have. These have been some
Speaker 9: great games. Holy cow, they have some fun watch. Football
Speaker 9: is undefeated.
Speaker 10: I think I saw something this morning that there's been
Speaker 10: fifteen lead changes in the fourth quarter, the most in
Speaker 10: NFL playoff history.
Speaker 8: I mean, that Bears game was as good of a
Speaker 8: football game as I've watched a long time. That passed
Speaker 8: from Caleb Williams was arguably one of the best things
Speaker 8: I've watched.
Speaker 7: And then we got the National Football Game, a championship
Speaker 7: game on Monday night, which was a great game as well.
Speaker 7: And I'm still debating whether or not as much as
Speaker 7: I love him, I'm not sure that dana was the
Speaker 7: best football team and on the field that night, I
Speaker 7: thought Miami had him.
Speaker 9: It's the second most fun National Championship game I was watching.
Speaker 5: So the second game is the NFC title game at
Speaker 5: five thirty. The Los Angeles Rams of Anaheim are at
Speaker 5: Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks and DraftKings.
Speaker 2: The Seahawks are two and a half point favorites.
Speaker 5: We mentioned this a day or two ago, but both
Speaker 5: games against those two teams this year. One game was
Speaker 5: a two point game, the other one was a one
Speaker 5: point overtime game. So they've played each other tight both games.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take the Rams. I'm a Stafford fan. I
Speaker 5: think the way they had to go get.
Speaker 9: Gridy and win that last game, and I'm they're gonna
Speaker 9: ride that momentum. I feel I feel the Rams here.
Speaker 5: Do you know the the O's Pearlman angle, You know
Speaker 5: the mentalist O's Pearlman.
Speaker 2: Have you heard of him?
Speaker 5: So he's it's just he was on America's Got Town
Speaker 5: like ten years ago. Now he's spent the last handful
Speaker 5: of years blowing everybody's mind. He's the guy that goes
Speaker 5: to foot teams like practice facilities and they do like
Speaker 5: the preseason. So he has I don't remember how many
Speaker 5: months back this was, he was at the Rams facility
Speaker 5: earlier this year and he has Matt Stafford come up
Speaker 5: to the front of the room and he said he
Speaker 5: wants like him to visualize a play, and he throws
Speaker 5: him a football.
Speaker 2: Mean, meanwhile, he's like, he has.
Speaker 5: Him pick out a guy and he picks Davante Adams,
Speaker 5: and DeVante Adams writes a score on his hand. He's
Speaker 5: basically like, I want you to visualize what you think
Speaker 5: the Super Bowl would be and who you're beating? And
Speaker 5: while he's doing that, so Devanta Adams writes a score
Speaker 5: on his hand, doesn't show anybody. He has Matt Stafford
Speaker 5: throw the football to anybody he wants in the room,
Speaker 5: and he throws it to kyn Williams, the running back,
Speaker 5: and he throws it back to Matt Stafford. Then Oz says,
Speaker 5: throw out anybody else in the room that you want.
Speaker 5: He throws it to Kobe Durant and then he says
Speaker 5: to DeVante Adams, he goes, you were thinking about the
Speaker 5: bronco was correct? And DeVante says yes, and then he says,
Speaker 5: and the score was twenty three to fourteen, right, And
Speaker 5: DeVante shows his hand and it says twenty three to fourteen,
Speaker 5: and everybody's mind's blown. Then, to take it up a notch,
Speaker 5: Kyrine Williams' number is twenty three, Kobe.
Speaker 2: Durant's number is fourteen. Yeah, that's not even a trick.
Speaker 2: That's just it's like, how is that even possible?
Speaker 5: So anyways, so that was months ago, and now even
Speaker 5: though Jared Jared Stidham look at you, even though Stidham
Speaker 5: is the quarterback, Everybody's like, if this super Bowl goes
Speaker 5: twenty three to fourteen Rams over Broncos.
Speaker 2: How do we even go on as a society.
Speaker 5: Like it always does this weird mentalist trick, but then
Speaker 5: it actually happens. Then we have a glitch in the matrix.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's on.
Speaker 9: I've seen some of those other ones. Maybe it wasn't him,
Speaker 9: but other ones in these press it probably was him.
Speaker 9: They do blow your mind. I don't, right, I need
Speaker 9: to bring one of those guys in.
Speaker 2: Unbelievable.
