1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:00,480 Speaker 1: Yeattle. 2 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 2: They should have kept that game scoreless as long as possible. 3 00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:06,559 Speaker 2: That's what I would have done. 4 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: Oh, our offense try to do that. 5 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 2: Yeah they did. 6 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: They've played their part. 7 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 2: They did their part. I I like riding the storm out. 8 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 2: Good choice. 9 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of liked that. 10 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm assuming we've used it before. 11 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,920 Speaker 1: I think we used it once before. It's been a while. 12 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know what, you know what I really 13 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 2: miss I played it Forduce today. Then he recognized right away, 14 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 2: wasn't sure I played? Uh? And how much fun would 15 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 2: have been to have this coming up? Kenny Rodgers, When 16 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: you put your heart in it, it might be the 17 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 2: best montage song of all time from when you're you know, 18 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 2: when your team In. 19 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: Terms of the emotion of it, Yeah. 20 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 2: You know, we knew it was one in a million. 21 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 2: Anything can happen when you put your heart in it. 22 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 2: So good. But I don't think I have to worry 23 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: about that one. For a while, it sounded as though, 24 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 2: I guess Friday Football Feest was about as festive as 25 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: it can be for a team that is our record 26 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 2: four and seven or four and eight. I believe we're 27 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: four and eight, are we not? 28 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 3: So? 29 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? I guess it is as fest as as it gets, though. 30 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: I was told because a friend of mine who ducks 31 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 2: in and out of the Paul Island project, told me 32 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 2: it was a little negative early, and you know rightly. 33 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 2: So it was talking about how, you know, if things 34 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,559 Speaker 2: don't get turned around and heard, if we don't ride 35 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: this storm on it, we're gonna have one of our 36 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 2: worst seasons we've had in a long long time. I mean, 37 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 2: when was the last time, I mean, what if what 38 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: if we do the opposite to run the table and 39 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,919 Speaker 2: at four and it would be four and thirteen? Yeah, 40 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 2: I mean, when was the last time we were that bad? 41 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: Was that the mc bounce past year? Remember when McNabb 42 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 2: was our quarterback? Yeah? 43 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: Lad, Yeah, I think we won five that year. 44 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: I think that was it. And that might have still 45 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: been in a sixteen game season. I don't know if 46 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 2: we'd gone to seventeen yet, but yeah, it's it's hard 47 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: to know. And you know, we we talked about this 48 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: the past couple of weeks. I mean, last week for 49 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: me was my emotion interest in the Bikings game in 50 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: a while, because hey, see what Brosemer's got right, and 51 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: we saw what he's got which ain't much. And now 52 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: I guess the interest level just is, what can the 53 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: anointed franchise quarterback doing the last five games? You know, 54 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 2: you look at the opposition, you know, and none of 55 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 2: it's great. Now Daniels is going to start, right, He's 56 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: been clear to play. Yes, so he will play. So 57 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 2: that poses uh, though, Mariota I think did pretty good 58 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: for him. I mean, he's not Daniels, but he was okay. 59 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: I mean he's he's he's not chopped liver. He'd start 60 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 2: for us. 61 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: Oh, we'd love that. We might be a playoff team 62 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: with him. 63 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's correct. So, but they're not any good and 64 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: then Troit's not any good and they lost branch that 65 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 2: I see that right, Branch out for the year. 66 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: He'll be a. 67 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: Calendar year man. I mean, twenty three is our best 68 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 2: defensive player, Ian Hutch Even though they they won last 69 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: that was fun for if you're a kiddies fan, it 70 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: was a it was an enjoyable football game. You know 71 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: those I always love those playoff calculators, you know, I mean, 72 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 2: they're I just I mean, I know how it works. 73 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 2: They've got some kind of formula as a computer. You know, 74 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: it's a I but you know, the Lions now have 75 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: like a fifty three chance to mayor forty five whatever 76 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 2: it is. And had they lost, it had been done 77 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: in like, you know, thirteen fourteen, so but they had. 78 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: So you have Washington and the Lions, and then who 79 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: else do we have. 80 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 3: We've got Giants, Cowboys giants. We have Washington Cowboys, Giants, 81 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 3: the Troy green Bay. 82 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so green Bay again, Now when you get to 83 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: that last game of the season, it might green Bay 84 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: might have everything locks, they might have clinched the division. 85 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: We don't know right now, they're not in first place, 86 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 2: but you you know, as that we so that game 87 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: might be more winnable if green Bay just says, you know, 88 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 2: we're resting everybody. So we'll see how it works out. 89 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 2: But you know, the we discussed this yesterday when we 90 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 2: were out at Shields. We did not have a Nico 91 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 2: med Bed show, the new head coach of the soon 92 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 2: to be Big Ten champion Minnesota Golden Golfers. But he 93 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: did do it on Wednesday and on Tuesday. That means 94 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: how did that work? Oh So on Wednesday when he 95 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 2: did the show, we did not have O'Connell's news conference 96 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: on because he does a Wednesday midweek thing during that 97 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 2: twelve three to twelve forty five. So we missed this 98 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: on the air, but then we talked about it yesterday 99 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 2: because it was in the fish wraps and it was 100 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 2: in the in the athletic they're now going to apparently 101 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: just they've decided they're throwing all the footwork and the 102 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 2: eyes and the feet and all the it's the word 103 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: I'm looking for, mechanics, mechanics of the of the position, 104 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: throwing that out the window and just say go out 105 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: there and just play ball, which is probably the best 106 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 2: thing you can do. 107 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 3: And then I don't know why we waited that long. 108 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 3: You figure that out though, Well that's true. 109 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 2: And then the kid even admitted, yeah, this, you know, 110 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: and again you know he's he says all the right. 111 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 2: Remember he told us that, you know, he was a 112 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 2: champagne bottle about ready. 113 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: To on quirk. 114 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 2: Remember, and he's he's nine his alter egos, So I'm 115 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 2: not sure I trust much of what he says either 116 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 2: as far as what he thinks is going to happen. 117 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 2: But he did have a he did have some quotes. 118 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 2: Maybe we'll look at those and peek at the purple 119 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 2: on the other side of the break. He had some quotes. 120 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 2: They talked to the kid about what he's planning to do, 121 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: and we've got, you know, more positivity coming from and 122 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 2: that's good. I mean, I'm glad he's thinking positive. But 123 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 2: you know, first he said he was he was nine. 124 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: It's his alter ego and he goes out there and 125 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 2: he balls and that didn't work out very well. And 126 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 2: then he said, you know, I'm I'm a champagne bottle 127 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: or you know bottle, but with a quark about to explode. 128 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,679 Speaker 2: And that was terrible. So I don't know if if 129 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: if saying, hey, throw the mechanics out the window and 130 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 2: just play football. Just worry about, you know, knowing the 131 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 2: plays and we're dumbing it down and just get the 132 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 2: ball out quick.

Boy. 177 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: Maybe we can get a maybe this. Maybe we can 178 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 2: use that egetrometer to jump start the purple. Peak at 179 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: the Purple brought to you by Affordable Electric, we'd be 180 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 2: talking a lot of people are talking about quarterback situation 181 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 2: with the Vikings, and here's what O'Connell has said. During 182 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 2: his news conference on Wednesday, he basically said macarthy has 183 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 2: to have a clear, clear head and a clear mind. 184 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 2: We're gonna try to dumb it down a little bit. 185 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 2: Forget all the mechanics of the of the position. Just 186 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: go out there and you know, start spinning it around 187 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 2: the ballpark. So here's what the story from the Fish 188 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 2: Wrap says. They've asked McCarthy to worry less about his 189 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 2: work in progress throwing mechanics and footwork, and more on 190 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 2: making the right decisions with the ball. Here's what McCarthy said, 191 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: A lot of the mentality has changed. I was so 192 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: focused on doing every rep perfect and making sure every 193 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 2: little detail was crossed and checked off. I feel like 194 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 2: Coach O'Connell and coach McCown talking to me like, hey, 195 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,719 Speaker 2: let's not worry about that stuff in the Let's not 196 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 2: worry about that stuff. Let's worry about that stuff in 197 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 2: the off season. Go out there, play your ball, Just 198 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 2: execute the play. At the end of the day. That 199 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 2: freeze up a lot of space. Mentally, be instinctual, react 200 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: respond to what the defense has given me. He goes 201 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: on to say he called himself a natural overthinker. Oh boy, 202 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 2: just what we need. 203 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 1: The opposite of this show, correct thinkers. 204 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: That's exactly right. Macarthy pinpointed that as the root cost 205 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: for some of his struggles, I overthink things too much. 206 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 2: O'Connell is talking about McCarthy's inconsistent footwork, posture and throwing 207 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 2: motion as areas of coaches continue to refine and improve 208 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 2: his accuracy in touch. McCarthy said he's been overthinking those 209 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 2: tips and games. He said, it's not against them, talking 210 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 2: about the coaches. I need to do a better job 211 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 2: of come part, compartmentalizing, compart. I can say that word, compart. 212 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: Can you say it is a hard one. 213 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 2: Compartmentalize, compartmentalizing, Yes, thank you those coaching points and realizing 214 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: when it's game time it's time to let it loose. 215 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: It's not like I'm totally disregarding all the coaching points, 216 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: but it's picking and choosing which ones you carry into 217 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 2: the game and what's going to be the most effective 218 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 2: way of completing the play. Yeah, I'm sorry. He sounds 219 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 2: like a mess, doesn't he? It really does. And he's 220 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 2: young and he's athletic, and you know, he's been a success, 221 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 2: and I'm not giving up on them, and I'm not 222 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 2: saying they should. We've talked about this over and over 223 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 2: and over and over and over and over and over again. 224 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 3: Well, I wonder how much of this is him overthinking 225 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 3: or the coaches over coaching. 226 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 2: Well, I think it might be a con. 227 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 3: Right, Like when when he first got hurt, and remember 228 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 3: it took like a month before we decided he was 229 00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 3: healthy to come back again because he had to be 230 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 3: one hundred before he could play. And the first thing 231 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 3: I said on the bye week was, yeah, we really 232 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 3: were working with him with the lightning his feet and 233 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 3: his eyes, and like, why are we doing that in 234 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 3: the middle of the season, right, Yeah. 235 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: That is an off season thing. 236 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: Once you get into games, it should be here's the 237 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 3: game plan, Here's what Detroit's defense does when they set 238 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 3: up in this formation this movie, that's what you need 239 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 3: to focus on. And once you get in the season, 240 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 3: I would think not be focusing on mechanics. 241 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: Well, that's what I would think, and I think that's 242 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 2: what most people think, and maybe that's what they're they're 243 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 2: doing now. And I'm thinking what probably happened to me. 244 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 2: And we've talked about this as well, and it's a 245 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 2: little I don't know if alarming is the right word, 246 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 2: but I think it's possible they didn't know how his 247 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 2: rudimentary skills were really rough. And like I say, that's 248 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 2: a bit alarming because you watched film, you had him 249 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 2: in for a tryout, probably went to the I don't know. 250 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 2: I think McCarthy probably participated in in the combine. She 251 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 2: would think you would have known all the things, especially 252 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 2: now I know he was hurt last year, but he 253 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 2: did play some pre season before he was hurt, so 254 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 2: you would think you would have known that those things 255 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 2: had to be to be worked on. But then and 256 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 2: so yeah, it's well. And then it goes back to 257 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 2: had they kept if you knew his his his mechanics 258 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 2: were that bad, well, maybe it would have been better 259 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 2: to hate to say, hey, you know what, maybe we 260 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 2: better keep darking. They couldn't they have franchised. Arnold kept 261 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 2: him for one year and they wanted to right said 262 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 2: they could have franchised. 263 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's accurate or not. 264 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: I should say, sure, yeah, I thought maybe they could have. 265 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 2: But maybe somebody can answer that for me, But. 266 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 3: I don't think that would have been you know, kosher 267 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 3: to do. I technically, if it was by the rules, 268 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: you can do it. I think Sam at that point 269 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 3: in his career had earned it, had earned a contract, 270 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 3: and it's just kind of the Yeah, even the contract 271 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,080 Speaker 3: he got is from in terms of quarterback terms, is now. 272 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: Expensive. 273 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 2: I agree. I agree. A matter of fact, here's a 274 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 2: story that appeared today. Jeff Holle writes for the Athletic. 275 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: What the Athletic you're not familiar with. Coolest thing ever, 276 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 2: it's sort of like a USA today today for sports. 277 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 2: It's it's got writers from all over the country, every 278 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 2: major market and every small play. They got hundreds undred 279 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: of writers and they cover all the sports. And you know, 280 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: like Colton Pouncey is the beat writer for the Detroit 281 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 2: Lions for the athletic. Alec Lewis is the beat writer 282 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 2: for the Minnesota Vikings for the athletics. So they covered 283 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: and with the Athletic they don't really have as many, 284 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 2: you know, for you know, the the dailies they have 285 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 2: shorter stories, they can do more long form. So sometimes 286 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 2: it gets too much. Sometimes I'll be reading, you know, 287 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 2: you'll read Krazinski's Timberwolves things that you think, well, this 288 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 2: is a novel. He's writing a book about the Minnesota Timberwolves, 289 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 2: which you realize is just a story. But he does 290 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 2: a great job. I'm not ripping them. I'm just kind 291 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: of teasing because all these guys will write these long 292 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 2: form things, including Jeff Howe wrote a piece why NFL 293 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: teams want more qbs to skip the draft and stay 294 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 2: in school, And if you read the piece now, he 295 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 2: quotes people that request anonymity, So I don't think he's 296 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 2: making it up. But it's SEC guys and NFL guys 297 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: all kind of saying the same thing, where it's like, 298 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: you'd probably be benefit would be good for the league, 299 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 2: it would be good for college football, it would be 300 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 2: good for you. There's there's a two quarterbacks that I 301 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 2: think are the two of the most highly it's supposed 302 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: to be kind of a weak quarterback class this year. Yeah, 303 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 2: but of like two of the top three, they're all 304 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 2: they're twenty years old. That's younger than McCarthy, right, McCarthy 305 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 2: twenty two, I think he was draft yeah, twenty twenty. Yeah, 306 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: So these guys they're so young and they don't one 307 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: of the kids has played seventy games of college football. 308 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 2: You draft him and then say you're starting. I mean, 309 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 2: and maybe some of them can do it. There are 310 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 2: some guys that are wonder kids. You know. They're just 311 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 2: they're they're they're they they're just they're light years for 312 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: some reason. They're just they're natural, right, they're once in 313 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 2: a life generational where they can at twenty years, they 314 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 2: have their mechanics down, they know how to read a defense. 315 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 2: They're just really good at what they do. But that's 316 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 2: so rare, and so that's why you have these players. 317 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 2: And McCarthy probably just doesn't It wasn't ready. And I 318 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 2: know it's complicated because we've all sort of decided and 319 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 2: there's probably a lot of truth to this because I've 320 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 2: sort of come around in this way of thinking, and 321 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 2: I think maybe you have as well. It's nice to 322 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 2: have a young quarterback under the rookie contract starting for 323 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: you right away and playing well, because then he got 324 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 2: money to spread in other places. Like Jayden Daniels last 325 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: year playing on a rookie contract, taking a team to 326 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 2: the NFC Championship Game, and he's making the minute. 327 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 3: He was also starting his rookie years at twenty four, 328 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 3: Y's right, that's as opposed to be one like JJ mccas's. 329 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 2: Exactly right, And so that makes quite a bit of 330 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: a difference. And so I think there was a lot 331 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 2: of miscalculations going on about where McCarthy was at the 332 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 2: time they drafted him and where he was at the 333 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 2: beginning of this year. And I think a lot of 334 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: it is I think the coaching staff sometimes gets a 335 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 2: little full of themselves with how much they can do 336 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 2: with coaching a quarterback. But when you're told that nationally 337 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 2: and locally forever, maybe start believing that kind of stuff. 338 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 2: But I had several people just text me and say 339 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 2: they could have franchised me. Yeah. 340 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: Someone text me and said it would have been like 341 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 1: forty million dollars. 342 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 2: Oh would it have been that much?

I get very frustrated with the soon to 368 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 2: be NBA World champion Minnesota Timberwolves. This edition of the 369 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 2: Wolves so far this year. They they they beat the 370 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 2: bad teams, but they generally can't hang with the best teams. 371 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 2: A record would confirm that. And then some of the 372 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 2: quotes that come out of the locker room are just 373 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 2: and this has been going on for a couple of 374 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 2: years now. The latest were the head coach Chris Finch said, 375 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: he seems like the team is bored sometimes particular on 376 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 2: the defensive end of the floor. Having been to two 377 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 2: back to back Western Conference finals, you are almost bored 378 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: with the regular odds. Another regular season game, middle of 379 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 2: the week on the road somewhere. An aunt even said, 380 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 2: it seems like we didn't even want to play these games. 381 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 2: We're just waiting for the playoffs. And I it to me, 382 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 2: it's like it's so unprofessional because people are paying money. 383 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 2: You're an entertainer, so you're supposed to put your best 384 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 2: foot forward. I mean, we know that Oklahoma City Thunder. 385 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 2: If anybody should be bored, they just won a world championship. 386 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 2: They've lost one game. They don't they're they probably are 387 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 2: more locked in now than they were last year. And 388 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 2: really good teams, championship caliber teams, they're always locked in 389 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 2: like that. I don't have the playoffs will just start today. 390 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 2: The Wolves would be in I get that, but and 391 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: they'll end more than likely they'll make the playoffs. And 392 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 2: but even Aunt said it's hard to just to just 393 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 2: flip a switch and play deef on paraphrase and how 394 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 2: he said it. But to just flip a switch come 395 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 2: playoff time and start playing defense, You've got to build 396 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 2: towards that make it a habit, do a day game 397 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 2: in game out on the other side of town, the 398 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,959 Speaker 2: Minnesota Wild, their season started out it was shaky. They 399 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 2: were on shaky ice, cracking nice, and then the month 400 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 2: in November it was like a flip a switch flip 401 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 2: for them. Their recond No, they lost last night, but yeah, 402 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 2: their record was what twelve one and one or something 403 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 2: crazy like yes for the month of November, and their 404 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 2: two goaltenders have been Frank Brimsick like mister Zero's, especially 405 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 2: the young kid the Wall from Saint Paul. You had 406 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 2: four shutouts this year, three or four, three, six, seven, 407 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 2: three four whatever. They lose last night to a pretty 408 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 2: mediocre Calgary club. Right Calgary is terribley. 409 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: In the NHL. 410 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 3: But like as I said yesterday, the parody in the 411 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 3: NHL this year is as close as we've seen in 412 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 3: a long time, so there isn't like a bottom feeder 413 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 3: anymore that we've had in previous years. 414 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 2: They were down one Zippo, tied at one to one. 415 00:21:55,200 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: They went into the third frame and gave up two 416 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: quick goals I think right away, and then an empty 417 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 2: and editor had lost four to one. I'm told their 418 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 2: goalie stood on his head on a couple of occasions 419 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 2: like our guy's been doing. Yeah, a couple of brilliant saves. 420 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 2: Yakoff Trendon. Was he our only goal scorer last night? 421 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 2: Didn't he score? Yea one? Yeah? This is what he 422 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 2: said after the game. I wish I could do his accent, 423 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 2: because I'm sure he does. Right. We had a lot 424 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 2: of looks in the first and maybe if we scored, 425 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 2: because they were on the power player even for four minutes. 426 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 2: They had a four minute power play. 427 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: And they had four power play. 428 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, we had a lot of looks in the first 429 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 2: and maybe if we score those goals, it'd be a 430 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 2: different game. But I think after that we didn't work 431 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 2: hard enough to get rewarded with a goal. We tried. 432 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 2: East West plays lazy, flat game. That's a direct quote 433 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 2: I saw on the Fisher rep factory west Side. We 434 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 2: had a lot of looks in the first and maybe 435 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 2: if we score those goals, it would be a different game. 436 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 2: And I think after that we didn't work hard enough 437 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 2: to get rewarded with the goal we tried. East West 438 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 2: plays set a North South. Yeah, lazy, flat game. He says, 439 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 2: they were lazy. Now I know they. I'm sure the 440 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 2: basketball community, which takes umbrage with much of what I 441 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 2: say about the Wolves, we're probably delighted to hear this. 442 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 2: I will give the while, I'll give him. I'll give 443 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,239 Speaker 2: a team a pass, you know, all of them, all right, 444 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,239 Speaker 2: don't let that happen. You know, you know, you let 445 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 2: your kids right, your kids do something wrong, Okay, I'm 446 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 2: gonna give you a pass here. I mean, as long 447 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 2: as they aren't stealing the neighbor's car. But you know, 448 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 2: if it's not something that's really not but you just 449 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 2: don't do that again. You know better than that, right, 450 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 2: because a while I've been playing hard. Obviously, you don't 451 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 2: go twelve one and one or whatever is in November 452 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 2: without playing hard and your goal turn and everything working 453 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 2: and blah blah blah. But if he is, if he's 454 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 2: if he's right, and that they were they got a 455 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: little lazy, and I don't want to see any laziness here. 456 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 3: So your thoughts, you saw the game, I'm assuming sometimes 457 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 3: it's hard to decipher and hockey a team that is 458 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 3: working hard, like they're always working hard to a certain extent, right, 459 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 3: I mean, it's not like flat out stopped trying. 460 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: But you know, one of my favorite cliches. 461 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 3: From our program director in the corner's office chat Abbott 462 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 3: is good is the enemy of great. 463 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 2: In mine is mediocre as the enemy a good. 464 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,199 Speaker 3: And they've been great over the last month. And you 465 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 3: do wonder if we're pretty good, we don't have to 466 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 3: give everything. We like, everything that we just did to 467 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 3: make ourselves that good man. We don't have to try 468 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 3: that hardymore. We've given ourselves some room in the standings. 469 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: We're playing the Calgary Flames. They're not going to give 470 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 3: us much of an effort. They're at the bottom of 471 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 3: the Western Conference right now. And I mean they did 472 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: you know, it wasn't like an all, It wasn't sixty 473 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 3: minutes of. 474 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 1: Zero effort and just playing awful. 475 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 3: You know, they had a stretch in the second half 476 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 3: of the second period where they're putting it on caligary, and 477 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 3: that is when they're when their goaltender was standing on 478 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 3: his head a little bit, and they had it as 479 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 3: even though they weren't playing great, it was still a 480 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 3: tie game going into the third. 481 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: Period, and things just fell apart a little bit. But 482 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: it's one game. I'm not going to get too sent 483 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: out of shape over one one game. 484 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 2: And I'm not either, So I say I'm willing to 485 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,679 Speaker 2: go ahead. I give, I give, I give teams a pass, 486 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 2: but I just don't. And again, maybe you know, I 487 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:31,239 Speaker 2: get accused of taking quotes from athletes literally oftentimes. You know, 488 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 2: Deuce and I watching last night Kitties beat uh Dallas. 489 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 2: So immediately after the game, they talked to Jamire Gibbs. 490 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 2: He's the best running back in pro football. By the way, 491 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: you can say whatever you want. That's everybody's opinion. He's 492 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 2: the best running back pro football. The best wide receiver 493 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 2: pro football is Amon Ross Saint Brown. It's not JJ, 494 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 2: it's not Chase, it's not Ceedee Lamb. The numbers there 495 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 2: that you can't argue with them. We had that stat 496 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: where since he has been in the league, no team 497 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: puts up more yards than the Detroit lines when he's 498 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 2: on the field, when he's off, they dropped the twenty fifties. 499 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 2: That good. He was brilliant again last night. Jamior Gibbs 500 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 2: is just so good. And then you compliment with that. 501 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 2: It's just their offensive and now their defense, and it's 502 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 2: unfortunate and their coach sometimes gets in his own way 503 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 2: whiting off knee catch. Yeah, they're not very good or 504 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 2: watching and whatever sideline reporter Gal is, she's asking Gibbs 505 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 2: questions and they're always looking for these I think deep 506 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 2: football analytical kind of answers from the guys. You know. 507 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 2: She goes, you know, take all the Dallas Cowboys who 508 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 2: had you know that? How did you do it? And 509 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 2: it just goes, you know, how were you able to 510 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 2: slow down a team like that or whatever? And or 511 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: their defense have been playing well the last couple of games, 512 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 2: and how are you able to break it up? He 513 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: just goes, they just give me the ball and I 514 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: run what I said? Yeah, did they call the play? 515 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 2: And I just go And then it's not that complicated. 516 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 2: I don't know what they're looking for. And so the 517 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 2: reason I bring that fas yes. And so the reason 518 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 2: I bring that up is is Oftentimes an athlete's response 519 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 2: will be sort of generic and sometimes they don't know 520 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 2: what to say. I think it was particularly I think 521 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 2: in the NBA, because there is four games a week basically, 522 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 2: and if you don't play well, you know, and you 523 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 2: and you are and you are kind of going through 524 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 2: the motions and you what do you expect them to you? 525 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 2: So you just to shut them up and just go, yeah, 526 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 2: we had much of an effort out there last time. 527 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:38,959 Speaker 2: We'll play better next week. Do they really mean that? 528 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 2: Just tread to mean they were really lazy? I don't know. 529 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 2: I got to take them out as word. So I 530 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 2: just don't like the word lazy, you know. And and 531 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 2: like you say, were they lazy throughout the game? No 532 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 2: second period? They gave it everything they had. But I 533 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 2: just just they I guess it wouldn't be the optics, 534 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 2: it would be the eartics, you know. It's what I hear. 535 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 2: I want want to hear quotes like that. I'm like, 536 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 2: I just I don't like that. As Ben Lugo once said. 537 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 3: You could say I don't like that, But on the 538 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 3: other I could take the other side of it and go, 539 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 3: they had a bad performance and they're addressing it right away, right, 540 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: like it'd be easy to just God, no big deal. 541 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 3: This is just one of those games, is what happens 542 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 3: in hockey, right Whereas they're going, hey, we were lazy, 543 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 3: that wasn't enough, Like here's our standard, we need to 544 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 3: meet the standard. We didn't do that last night. And 545 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 3: at least they're addressing it and hopefully that'll change the 546 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 3: next game, as opposed to letting that thing go from 547 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 3: you know, as we said at the beginning of the year, 548 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 3: when they win three, six and three, where you just 549 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 3: let that thing keep sliding and sliding. Yeah, So I'm 550 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 3: problem with them, Colin, And I actually think that's a 551 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 3: good thing. 552 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: Oh it is, it is. I I don't I don't. 553 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 2: I don't mind that, especially if it doesn't become like, 554 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 2: let's say, over the next couple of weeks, they lose 555 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 2: a few more games that they're going, why we just 556 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 2: kind of got lazy. Then you start going because that's 557 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 2: what the wars. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, I mean 558 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 2: when you say that, you're already bored and the season 559 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 2: has just started and you want you want to wash 560 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 2: away these games and get to postseason play. If you're 561 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: the ticket buying public. Somebody had a great email yesterday. 562 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 2: He says, maybe on Board paying one hundreds of dollars 563 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 2: should take us to go see your games. You know, 564 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: because in all seriousness, if you are paying good money 565 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 2: to go watch a game and you're thinking to yourself, well, 566 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 2: the guys say they're bored, and I can see they're 567 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 2: allowing their you know, they're defensively, they're really not getting 568 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 2: back and they're not they're not really last night, same 569 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 2: thing if if if I did not see the game, 570 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 2: I'm going by again quotes they they won, they beat 571 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: and they beat this the second time they beat the 572 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 2: Pels this week. And and you know, if you read 573 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 2: the Gamer, and I will, this is out of the 574 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 2: fish rep Factory West Side Takeaway. Timberwolves do enough to 575 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 2: make it a sweep of the Pelicans and the Chris 576 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,479 Speaker 2: Heine is the beat writer for The Fish Wrap and 577 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 2: the Wolves says Oolves again made life tough on themselves 578 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 2: or as the worst team in the West, but they 579 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 2: left New Orleans with two wins. Welves went on a 580 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 2: seventeen to two erst in the opening minutes of the 581 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 2: fourth quarter that flipped a two point deficit to a 582 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 2: thirteen point lead, and they were able to get enough 583 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 2: easy buckets against the Pells full court pressure. Despite committing 584 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: twenty turnovers like they did on Sunday, the Wolves deployed 585 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 2: his own defense generate enough stops of them to go 586 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 2: on a run. But as it does say, they were 587 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 2: once again they allowed a team that they shouldn't toy with. 588 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 2: They just kind of went through the motions. I guess 589 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: board with the basketball game, and I guess you can't. 590 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 2: You can't argue with the winning then. And apparently he 591 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 2: had some foul trouble last night. His numbers certainly weren't 592 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 2: where they were. I think I saw a note in 593 00:30:49,640 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 2: his last forty he had like three forty point games 594 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 2: and his four out of the last five games something 595 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 2: like the guys scoring at a prolific level. You know, 596 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 2: he can put the ball in the basket, there's no question. 597 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 2: But the team, apparently defense they're not interested in playing 598 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 2: right now. And I guess I just have to deal 599 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 2: with it, you know, because it doesn't seem like that's 600 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 2: going to change anytime soon. And I guess as long 601 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 2: as they stay in the mix, it's it's like Finch Center. 602 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 2: We've read the quotes, you know, the the West, it's loaded, man, 603 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 2: every night. It's it's it's it's sort of like it's 604 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 2: like the NFC. Somebody sent me a text message, a 605 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 2: text message that said, and they're right. It says, it says, 606 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 2: if the playoffs would start today, lines are eight and five, 607 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 2: they'd be out. They're not in. And that's because the 608 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 2: NFC is pretty top heavy. There's some teams with some 609 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 2: really good records. Bears at nine and three, Ram they 610 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 2: both three or what are they eight? And I think 611 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 2: the I think they're both nine and three. Yeah, they're 612 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 2: both nine and three. 613 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 3: Packers are eight, three and one, three and one, Eagles 614 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 3: eight and four. 615 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I don't think the AFC is. 616 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: Quite as forty nine ers or third in their division at 617 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: nine and four. 618 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, at nine and four, and they're the last team 619 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 2: in right now, so and they got to buy this 620 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 2: week and over in the AFC, I don't think it's 621 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 2: quite I think those lower seeds, you know, the the 622 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 2: wild card teams, I don't think your record needs to 623 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 2: be quite as good at this point. 624 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 3: So well, even in the AFC, there're seven seed right 625 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 3: now is eight and four, Okay, So there you go. 626 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,320 Speaker 3: Obviously they've got the the six and six Ravens would 627 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 3: be in a division, yeah, right, right right, and then 628 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 3: they have four teams that are eight and four Jaguars, Chargers, Colts, Bills. 629 00:32:50,640 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. Text message says you two are such clo For years, 630 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 2: you've been saying NHL players are get killed if they 631 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 2: ever gave less than full effort. Guess not. Like I said, 632 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 2: it happens in all sports. You if you only ripped 633 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 2: the NBA, Well, it's because it only happens in the 634 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 2: NBA consistently, consistently, game after game after game after game 635 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 2: after game. 636 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 3: I also when, like I know Trenion's calling their effort lazy. Yeah, 637 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 3: there's a there's levels of extremes of work ethic. Lazy 638 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 3: to me is like on the you know, that's like 639 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 3: meat sauce, common man level, on the far extreme. I 640 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 3: don't think they went out there and just flat out lazy. 641 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: I don't. 642 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 3: I don't buy that now, you know. I've always used 643 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 3: the example of there's the difference between going out and 644 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 3: challenging a shot and going down and blocking a shot, right, 645 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 3: like going into a corner and absorbing contact and maybe 646 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 3: allowing the player to get there first and then trying 647 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 3: to defend them right, like, but they're not, like they're 648 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 3: not trying. 649 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 2: Picking your spot. 650 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 651 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's when I am a clown. I'm the clown 652 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 2: from Brows at the beginnings. I don't run from those things. 653 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 2: I know where I've been, where I'm going. So he's right, 654 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 2: I am a club. But he's fooling. He's a basketball 655 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 2: community guy, and he loves his sports so much, and 656 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 2: he loves his dear little Wolves, and so he just 657 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 2: believes that they're given I guess he thinks they're giving it. 658 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: They're all, oh, they've won for in a row. 659 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 2: They have, though they've said they an't said it. It 660 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 2: just seems like we don't even really want to play 661 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 2: these games. They're a playoff team, which, again, if you 662 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 2: are a ticket buyer, that that's hard for me to 663 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 2: stomach because then it's like, well, if you don't even 664 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 2: want to play, and why am I buying tickets for? 665 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 2: You know? 666 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 3: But well, I mean, if I was gonna have if 667 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 3: I had my choice between a team that plays really 668 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 3: well in the regular season and does poorly in the 669 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 3: postseason or a team that does not as good asy 670 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 3: could in the regular season, but does great in the postseason. 671 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,439 Speaker 3: They've gone to Western Coffer's Finals in a row. Yeah, 672 00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 3: I think they might just be I think this happens 673 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 3: a lot in the NBA, where we're going to coach 674 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 3: through the regular season, but we're playing for the postseason. 675 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 2: They don't do that in Oklahoma City. 676 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: No, they don't. There, they do. They do well in both. 677 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, well's And the reason they do well in both 678 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 2: is because they do well in both. They give effort 679 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 2: all the time. They're not bored. They look at it 680 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 2: and say, but this is great. I play basketball for 681 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 2: a living, a guaranteed contract. 682 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 3: They also don't have to give as much effort because 683 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 3: they have so many players a compete. 684 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're all well rusted. 685 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 2: Yeah.
