1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: And just in case you missed it, it's the Top 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: five Spots Taggers of the Day. Now it's time for 3 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,799 Speaker 1: Dan Barrero's Top five and five brought to you by 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:11,480 Speaker 1: Gutter Helmet of Minnesota. 5 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 2: Never clean your gutters again. 6 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: Learn more at gutter Helmet MNT dot com. 7 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 3: Well, it's quite a battle ensuing via x. I don't 8 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 3: know if you noticed it or detected it at Blake 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 3: Moore was in for Guardsy today. As usual for the show, 10 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 3: I laid out the guest lineup, and often if it 11 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 3: doesn't include a hockey guest, Faldness then expresses some snark 12 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 3: or frustration. In this case, it was you know you 13 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 3: you'll you know, rub your chin like hmmm, doesn't seem 14 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 3: to be any sort of hockey presence, to which another 15 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 3: tweeter wrote, wild don't play for two weeks, take a rest. 16 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 3: Faldness's reply, hockey in the state of hockey. 17 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 2: Trademark does not rest? Oh so dramatic? Oh does not rest? 18 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 3: So? Is that the best way to lead into what 19 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 3: you say? Might be an apology to Fallness for the 20 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 3: Top five today. 21 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean I could do this time now. 22 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: For the obligatory Kevin fallness. Minnesota Wild mentioned. 23 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 4: Hey, the Wild are scattered across North America and Italy, 24 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,279 Speaker 4: and the opening ceremony was today and there are probably 25 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 4: some Wild players over there. 26 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 3: I mean, that's best I got. There's nothing else to 27 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 3: talk about. It's not even worth going in any more 28 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 3: trade rumors. We've done that a bunch. We will do 29 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 3: that a bunch in the other end, the whole bit. 30 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 3: But there's, by the way, where is Carell hanging out 31 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 3: during this breakdown? 32 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 2: I don't know is that location? 33 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 4: Probably? Yeah, I'm going maybe Florida. That's an educated guest. 34 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 4: I don't have a bad thought. Yeah, something tropical perhaps. 35 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 4: So I love the Wild as much as anyone in 36 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 4: the building, but they're not they're not playing right now, 37 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 4: and when the US starts, they'll lead the. 38 00:01:58,560 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: Top five and five. 39 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 4: We don't play for a while, right, it's not until 40 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 4: the twelfth, I believe, Yeah, l or six days. Okay, Yeah, 41 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 4: So anyways, that's for USA the Wild, Yes, for the 42 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 4: beyond that. There is a game tonight you'll hear on 43 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 4: the fan pregame six forty five tip off at seven. 44 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 4: It is your Minnesota Timberwolves. They take on the Pelicans. 45 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 4: For my money one of the worst names in sports. 46 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 4: Just a terrible name. 47 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 2: That's not a great name. No, I you Desumo still 48 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: think I'm saying that correctly. I'm gonna get that I'm 49 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 2: told it's pronounced. 50 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 3: I apparently mispronounced it yesterday because the way you're pronouncing 51 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 3: it is the way I'm told it's supposed to be pronounced. 52 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: Although I'd like to get the final word eventually more officially, 53 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 3: but I think you're safe. 54 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, so physical still to take place, to trade to 55 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 4: be official. So they did have their introductory press conference, 56 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 4: but other stuff and bureaucracy is Johnny Athletic called it 57 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 4: holding it up, So no, are you do soumed tonight. 58 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 4: I'm just gonna say it fast and power through it. 59 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 4: That's why anyone can understand that I just pronounced it. 60 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 2: Randall. 61 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 4: He's questionable with left thumb soreness. But that's it for 62 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 4: your injury report Wolves and Pelicans tonight. 63 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's disappointing. 64 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 3: I'm sure for the home fans just say God, great, 65 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 3: it'd be great opportunity to see the new guy. The 66 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 3: other you know, Mike Conley is coming back. But again, 67 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 3: I don't want to get too deep into the weeds 68 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 3: and the arcane matter of salary, cap rules, payroll rules, 69 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 3: et cetera. But as I understand it, the longer the 70 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 3: Wolves delay on making that official, the more flexibility they 71 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 3: will have getting a player making decent what had been 72 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: making decent money, who gets bought out. And there are 73 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: some names out there that would absolutely help the depth 74 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 3: of this club. Now, whether they're going to end up 75 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 3: with any of them, I don't know. But part of 76 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 3: the advantage of doing the deals the way they've done them, 77 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 3: including the first one with Mike Conley to the Bulls, 78 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 3: is it has given them a lot more flexibility to 79 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 3: add significant a player who you know, who is making 80 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 3: more significant money than just your average roob. So there 81 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 3: is I think been a method of the madness of 82 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 3: this approach, and it's why there's nothing I think yet 83 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 3: official on Conley. 84 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 2: But there's every. 85 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 3: Indication that he's ready to come back. 86 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: He is willing to come back. 87 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 3: The assumption is that it's going to be an even 88 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 3: more reduced role because you got to play the new guy. 89 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 3: He It's what have we said all year? You never 90 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 3: replaced Nikiel That's that's the gap. The absence I think 91 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,679 Speaker 3: it's kind of the gaping hole in the club compared 92 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 3: to a year ago. 93 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 2: We know why they didn't. 94 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 3: They couldn't re sign everybody, but what they've finally done 95 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 3: is giving themselves a reasonable fact simile of what Nikhil 96 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 3: Alexander Walker represents, and that's important for this team. It's 97 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 3: not as big a move, obviously, it's not as massive 98 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 3: a move as. 99 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 2: If you get. 100 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 3: The honest, but it's it's to me, it was just 101 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 3: a move if we're gonna give yourself a chance because 102 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 3: this kid can score. 103 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: He's a good two way player. He can handle the ball. 104 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 3: Even though he's not viewed as a guy who's a 105 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 3: natural point guard, but he can't handle it enough to 106 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 3: be in that position from time to time. So all 107 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 3: of the timing here, if it seems odd, what are 108 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 3: you waiting for on Conley? I think it's all related 109 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 3: to give them greater flexibility. If there's an opportunity and 110 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 3: they're interested in bringing one other relative name player in, 111 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 3: that might end up being available to them, and then 112 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 3: suddenly you'd add not one piece, but two pieces to 113 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 3: your depth, and they'd be a lot less naked in 114 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 3: that regard than they were before. 115 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 2: We hit the trade deadline. 116 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 4: I'm told in a apology that I should mention. Beyond 117 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 4: the Pond starts at ten tomorrow, So there you go. 118 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 4: Why you're bothering I know the Olympics, I guess the 119 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: other story one of us, Lindsey Vaughn. I find this fascinating. 120 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 4: So she tears Racy all in a crash, ruptured it. 121 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 4: I don't know if there's a difference between ruptured and terror. 122 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 4: If it's just a man sounds more dramatic, it does. Yeah, 123 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 4: so Twitter doctor, so she's raising still, she said immediately 124 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 4: after that, my Olympic dream isn't dead, and we're like, okay, 125 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 4: cute story. 126 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 2: Well she's back, she's racing. Yes, she means it. 127 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 4: So then you know how every time there's a football injury, 128 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 4: there's a Twitter doctor that immediately shows the SlowMo replays 129 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 4: and I think that's a grade two ankle spring. Yes, 130 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 4: well someone was at it again. What was the state 131 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 4: of her ACL before the crash? What she is doing 132 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 4: now would not be nearly as surprising as an elite athlete, 133 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 4: with Lindsay responding, lol, thanks doc, Yeah, my ACL was 134 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 4: fully functioning until last Friday, just because it seems impossible 135 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 4: to you, doesn't mean it's not possible. And yes, my 136 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 4: ACL is one hundred percent ruptured, not eighty, not fifty, 137 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 4: it's one hundred percent gone. I'm sorry our ACL tears 138 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 4: like is big ACL lying to us this whole time? 139 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 3: That I I mean, that's the most Now you're wondering 140 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 3: if some players were milking it and could it like 141 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 3: football players could have. Well, here's the thing. She had 142 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 3: a practice run to NET today, I believe, yeah, and 143 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 3: it was considered good enough that she's going forward with 144 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 3: this thing. I'm fascinated by this story. I'm going to 145 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 3: follow it very closely. I mean, we always follow Lindsay 146 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 3: Vaughn in this town for obvious reasons. She's world class 147 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 3: as a tremendous resume local angle, even though I think 148 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 3: she really learned her skiing in Wisconsin more than she 149 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 3: did here. 150 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 2: But I don't want to get in that argument again. 151 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 3: But the fact is she's going for it, and as 152 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 3: you say, she's saying one hundred percent gone, there's still 153 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 3: a party that says, well, it has to affect not 154 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 3: necessarily whether you can get down the hill safely, but 155 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 3: whether you can get down the hill as effectively as 156 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 3: you are accustomed to. But that's what we're going to 157 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 3: find out, and believe me, the ratings for that whenever 158 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: that is, are going to be absolutely massive. 159 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 4: If I had to power rank sports, that would be 160 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 4: hard to do with a bum knee. Skiing's no doubt. 161 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 4: I don't know how that's a thing. Women's hockey is 162 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 4: fully underway. The US leads their group. They are up 163 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 4: three points, which one has two points. Canada and Finland 164 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 4: they haven't played. We talked about that yesterday at the 165 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 4: neuro virus terrorism going on with the finished group, but 166 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 4: I just realized that Canadians and the US are in 167 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 4: the same group, so we'll see them at least once, 168 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 4: if not twice. Sweden leads the other group with three points. 169 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 4: And then there are some figure skating that went on 170 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 4: today as far as the as well as the opening ceremonies, 171 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 4: which again is still weird. I understand and got to 172 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 4: fit everything in, yes, but so yeah, figure skating today. 173 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 4: There's some curling earlier today as well, but that's where 174 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 4: we're at. Women's hockey off to a flying start. 175 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 3: A couple of people are saying that kill is doing 176 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 3: high altitude training in Colorado. 177 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 2: Do you know why bake Moore? Because it's the Cup? 178 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: Because damn cup man. 179 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, Hi, he's gonna put himself in the best physical 180 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 3: condition in his career because it's the Cup and he 181 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 3: finally actually wants to go after one has maybe a 182 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 3: chance to go one after one, although again, I still 183 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: want to see us win our first series before we 184 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 3: get too haughty when. 185 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 4: We get to that second round. You got to go 186 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 4: to Denver Game one. There you go, I'll be ready. 187 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 4: Can we catch Denver? By the way guards? 188 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 3: He made it sound to me like we really have 189 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 3: a chip share and a chance to catch the lanch. 190 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: We don't, do we? I mean if the lays at 191 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 2: nine points something like that the season, I think they 192 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: got like nine games in hand on us too, though. 193 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 4: I mean if they are a human team that occasionally 194 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 4: doesn't show up to games or doesn't have their best effort, 195 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 4: then we could catch them. But they haven't shown much 196 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 4: signs of being that. I got time for one more, 197 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 4: do it. I don't know how much you've been following this, 198 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 4: Gavin McKenna, Are you aware of this situation? So, Gavin McKenna, 199 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 4: he's a very sought after college hockey player made waves 200 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 4: basically got into essentially a bar fight a bar. 201 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 2: Oh I see, yes, I remember this. All the charges 202 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 2: are getting dropped. 203 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 4: The story that I read was someone approached him and 204 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 4: his either teammates or friends at a bar, said salacious 205 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 4: things about family members, his mother particularly, and Cavin socked him, 206 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 4: broke his jaw and knocked him out on the spot 207 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 4: that he was getting charged, he was facing. There was 208 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 4: articles they were saying, twenty years in prison. They're all 209 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 4: getting dropped. So let's see. The District Attorney office said 210 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 4: that while the aggravated assault charge has been dropped, which 211 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 4: could have earned McKenna and maxim sentence for twenty years 212 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,599 Speaker 4: in prison, prosecution move before with a misdemeter simple assault 213 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 4: and preliminary hearing for Wednesday. So basically they've knocked it 214 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 4: down to say, let's not be ridiculous. That's not a 215 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 4: twenty year felony to you know, got a bunch someone 216 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 4: in the mouth at a drunken bar, thinks. 217 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 3: So all right, We've got a lot of texts that 218 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 3: cover a lot of different stories that I definitely want 219 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 3: to explore before we are joined by Lavelle at the 220 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 3: bottom of the hour Stay tuned. 221 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 4: Bonus Box is back on KF A N. We have 222 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 4: nine chances for you to win a thousand dollars every weekday. 223 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 4: It's every hour from nine am till five pm. 224 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 5: Ten. 225 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 4: Our keywords lettle More had the KFA dot com. The 226 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 4: keyword this hour, by the way, is bank. Keyword bank, 227 00:11:20,480 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 4: KFA dot com keyword bank. 228 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 3: Trying to do some on air producing too, perhaps, I 229 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 3: don't know. Add a guest to the list between now 230 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: and six thirty. 231 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: We'll see how it goes. 232 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 3: Don't forget Lavella's scheduled, at least for now. By five 233 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 3: point thirty, we're only five points down to the lanch 234 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 3: right now. I thought it was like eight or nine. 235 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 2: Is it five? 236 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 3: Although I think again, I think they've got some games 237 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 3: in hand on us. 238 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 2: But that's a little tighter than it was. Yeah, I 239 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 2: think they've got a couple interesting only five points. 240 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 3: By interest, Would there be any interest in Chris Middleton 241 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 3: if he's bought out? That's an example of the kind 242 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 3: of player we are talking about, where the Wolves now 243 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 3: would have because of the sequencing that they went with 244 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 3: regarding all these salary cap related moves, not saying they're 245 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 3: going to get them, not even saying there's been any discussion, 246 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 3: but it gives them the flexibility to be in that market. 247 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 3: It's a good example of exactly what we were talking about. 248 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 3: Former IOW wrestler won an instantly championship with two broken acls. Yeah, 249 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 3: that's wrestling. You barely move in wrestling, right compared to No, 250 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 3: I'm being facetious. Obviously I wouldn't recommend doing anything with 251 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 3: two ACL issues. Can we please get a dedicated Wild 252 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: station like the Wolves have? Let me explain why we don't. 253 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 3: It's pretty simple. Actually, we don't have a dedicated Wild 254 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 3: station because whenever the Wild play, they are on one 255 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: hundred point three KFN, other than if there's a Vikings conflict. 256 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: Besides that they're Kings. That's the reason Wolves have a channel, 257 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 3: because at least when the deal was originally negotiated, there 258 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 3: are gonna be a lot of games that were not 259 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 3: going to be on the actual one hundred point three frequency, 260 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 3: even though as it turns out, I think there have 261 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 3: been more than we expected, in part because I think 262 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 3: of the team's success and they've made some adjustments, et cetera. 263 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 3: But that's the reason, Uh, the Wild take precedents over 264 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 3: every other team except for the Vikings in this town, 265 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 3: to beyond the frequency. 266 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 2: Now I get the point. 267 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 3: You could say, well, still, I wouldn't be able to 268 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 3: have to have a dedicated Wild channel too, But I 269 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 3: think that's the reason. 270 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: Or do we and I don't even know it? I mean, 271 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 2: do we want to hear that much? 272 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 3: Kevin fauns it's a great point, you know, because you 273 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 3: certain that's a really good point. 274 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 2: Well would he That's the thing I don't think you 275 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: does he want to work that hard? I love Kevin, 276 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 2: I just hard time me too. 277 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 3: Interestingly he asked for he almost demands that we give 278 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 3: him a hard time. Alan and Afton Dan question, what's 279 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 3: your opinion on the way the Olympics are covered? I 280 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 3: despise the way NBC shoves narrow storylines and narratives down 281 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 3: our wrote and focus slash limit what they show us 282 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 3: to those narratives. 283 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: This is a set of world sporting events. 284 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 3: Shouldn't we be able to consume the sports and not 285 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 3: the narrative. It's a fascinating question. Now, I haven't watched 286 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 3: enough of the coverage yet to get a feel for that, 287 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 3: because I think you've got the stuff that's on NBC, 288 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: But you also got a bunch of stuff on Peacock 289 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: right where. I think you can move around depending on 290 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 3: what your interests are. So I'm of two minds. I 291 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 3: think part of the reason, frankly themes are established is 292 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 3: a belief that for a lot of people they need 293 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 3: to be led, that the casual winner Olympics fans sort 294 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 3: of needs to be led a little bit and perhaps 295 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 3: even educated, and so they say, okay, going in, we 296 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 3: think these are some really great stories, So we're gonna 297 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 3: build on those stories. I don't think that's the worst thing. Now, 298 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 3: if you're hardcore, you'd like to probably have the option 299 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 3: to say, I know more, I want to go everywhere, 300 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 3: I want to dabble. I want to consider other stories 301 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 3: that you guys aren't talking about because they weren't on 302 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 3: your list before the Winter Olympics came to I at 303 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 3: its best, my assumption is when you have streaming available 304 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 3: and you have a lot of different things being covered, 305 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 3: I thought for those people, you're given the opportunity to 306 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 3: pretty much watch whatever is going on in any sport 307 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 3: at any given moment. 308 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 2: But I have not watched. 309 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 3: It yet enough long enough given that really you know, 310 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 3: we've had some events so far, but it's where we're 311 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 3: We're not quite yet what we would classify as full bore. 312 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 3: One could say, what was the other text I was 313 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 3: looking for? This seems uncalled for. This is a callback 314 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 3: to Ben Gesling confirming that he'd written a book about 315 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 3: the wolves for fourth graders way back when, and seven 316 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 3: sixty three, guy wrote, meat Sauce will love Ben's book. 317 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 2: That's not very kind? Are we passed the meat sauce? 318 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: You know? 319 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 3: Being in the dufus theme, hasn't that been exhausted by now? 320 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: No, they're still running with it. 321 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 3: It's kind of a myth, isn't it. I always thought 322 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 3: it was quasy, couldn't draft, should have honed his craft. 323 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 3: Koc has the last laugh Wolves and five not bet 324 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 3: it's not a bad one. I had a couple more. 325 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 3: I got to keep. I gotta start starring. We had 326 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 3: a bunch of good ones yesterday and I didn't. I 327 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 3: didn't star them, which was kind of a big, kind 328 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 3: of big mistake on that. Uh where was I see 329 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 3: if I can find another one? Oh, here's one. Elvis 330 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 3: Presto Janet's burlesque show who made the Pesto, Wolves, and five. 331 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 3: That's a callback to our Super Bowl halftime show discussion earlier, 332 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 3: where I, in doing a little digging earlier today, learned 333 00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 3: or was reminded of something I'd forgotten that among the 334 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 3: more forgettable super Bowl halftime shows was one. What do 335 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 3: we say was that? I say it was thirteen, I'll 336 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 3: double check the year. The headliner was somebody named Elvis Presto, 337 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,959 Speaker 3: and so it was an Elvis impersonator so to speak. 338 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 3: Who has another name? I mentioned it earlier. I don't 339 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 3: even remember what it is now.

WAY i think he's safe BECAUSE i do. 505 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 3: Believe, look this is you could, say an opportunity to evaluate, him, 506 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 3: obviously but by all accounts their intention is to re sign. 507 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 3: Him he won't be as expensive As Kobe white probably 508 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 3: definitely would have. Been and they have his bird, rights 509 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 3: which means they can because of again when they made 510 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 3: this deal and what else they did in the in 511 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 3: their cap, situation they'll be able to pay him more money. 512 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: Too SO i think that's going to be part Of in, 513 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 3: fact the hotline is ringing. Now it sounds like it 514 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 3: might be. Him let's see If. 515 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: Moore, yeah not. 516 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 6: YET i don't think they GIVE i don't think they 517 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 6: gave up a lot for him. EITHER i, Mean rob 518 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 6: Did dillingham is a recommation project.

Game it looks like the game comes 522 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 6: easy to. Him he moves with such a, fluidity but 523 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 6: there's never any production out of. That it's it's. Baffling 524 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 6: many of those guys go to a place where they 525 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 6: had no trace but to get on the on the 526 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 6: court and see what they can. DO i don't care 527 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 6: about the four second. Rounders he sent second round picks 528 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 6: with that round, picks SO i, mean you could hit 529 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 6: on a pig for, sure but it doesn't have the 530 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 6: impact as it used to. Have sign if you resigned, 531 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 6: him if you exercised bird rights and sign a then 532 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 6: it's definitely Worth. 533 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 2: You've made something out of. 534 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 3: It it's a failed, pick and they moved up to get, 535 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 3: him they gave up a one to get, him and 536 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 3: there's no. Question uh that's that's a loss in that. 537 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 3: Sense but it was fairly Clear finchy wasn't gonna play. 538 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 3: Him and and it's the old deal of that's it's 539 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,239 Speaker 3: it's the curse that you kind of want to. Have 540 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 3: the wolves are too good to let a player play. 541 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 3: Through you, know his his mistakes and that and and 542 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 3: that's probably what he needs to. DO i don't blame 543 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 3: the bulls for taking a look at him and, see, 544 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 3: okay we we got less to lose at this. Point 545 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 3: but so it does hurt because when you trade him B. 546 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 3: M I i ever, saw that's for, sure no.

Quarterback BUT i JUST 835 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 3: i don't think anybody came away blown away by that. 836 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,479 Speaker 3: Club AND i still Liked, buffalo but then they didn't 837 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 3: get there the whole.

Something, again not their, fault BUT 843 00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 3: i JUST i just don't think of them as. Well 844 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 3: that's a tested team that could end up with The 845 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 3: bowl winning it history and Then. SEATTLE i like them, 846 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,959 Speaker 3: more BUT i still don't look at them either as 847 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 3: a heavy. 848 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 2: Heavyweight, now none of that means it can't be a 849 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 2: hell of a. 850 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 3: GAME i, mean you could end up having a very exciting, 851 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 3: game a very close, game whatever the case may.

DAN i 883 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 3: hope That conley will be back on the show and, 884 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 3: available BUT i consider the up and a bumper curse 885 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 3: more closely associated with The vikings than The. Wolves if 886 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 3: EITHER jj is offered up to the show next year 887 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,800 Speaker 3: for weekly, guests please don't. Accept That's adam And. Whitebear 888 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 3: and what's ironic about that is there's some ANTI jj 889 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 3: McCarthy fans who are begging us to PUT jj McCarthy 890 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 3: on because they apparently do believe in the curse and 891 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,880 Speaker 3: they're done WITH. Jj He it is an interesting transition 892 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 3: over the course of his two years here from a 893 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 3: guy that everybody was excited about to a guy that 894 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 3: a lot of people are ready to move on. 895 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,360 Speaker 2: From and those are the. 896 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 3: Extremes you, know reality should be somewhere in between. There 897 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 3: but it is interesting to quote a guy who covers 898 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 3: this team every, Day Kevin seffert in a piece that 899 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 3: he DROPPED i think, yesterday saying regarding McCarthy's future here 900 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:59,959 Speaker 3: or HIS i guess his position of if he's coming 901 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 3: from a position of strength, here his viability. Here the 902 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 3: comment he made or wrote was all bets are, off 903 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 3: and that would seem to indicate if that's, true then. 904 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 2: Anything's possible for this upcoming. 905 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:18,280 Speaker 3: Season that may the message might, be we're no longer 906 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 3: worried about hurting, Feelings we're no longer worried about creating 907 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 3: a quarterback circus by bringing somebody else. 908 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 2: In we're going to do. It we're going to do 909 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 2: whatever we think we have to. 910 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 3: Do now that sounds bold and it sounds, necessary but 911 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 3: then you're back to the, who who's the, player who's the? 912 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 3: Quarterback you're going to find that fulfills that. Desire that's 913 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 3: not going to BE i think particularly easy and in the, 914 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 3: end they may end up having to settle for somebody 915 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 3: that they really didn't want. To we've heard all the, 916 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,840 Speaker 3: Names we've gone through the. Names i'm sure we'll do 917 00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:59,720 Speaker 3: a lot more of that as we get closer into 918 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 3: the next, season the. Offseason but it sounds good to, 919 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 3: Say Paul bets are off and. 920 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 2: Baby we'll do whatever we have to. 921 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 3: Do but you still got to have, somebody you, know 922 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,439 Speaker 3: you have to have somebody that you're going to bring. 923 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 3: In so we'll, See, dan have you covered the fact 924 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 3: that The pastronaut Is New england's.
