1
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 1: Bad common man, common man, no show, PEP, no solid.

2
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: Plan, so they aren't we can't approach, will fail.

3
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 3: It's time for common.

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 4: Man, common man, common man, charge the housewives.

5
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 2: That go and can what should where we play?

6
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 5: That's nonsense object.

7
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 2: Today, man, It's time for common.

8
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 4: Why should anybody aspire to be a common man? An

9
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 4: average man? Do you realize what it means to be average?

10
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 4: That means you're the best of the lousiest and the

11
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 4: lousiest of the best. Now, if we demand more and

12
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 4: more for producing less and less while they have not,

13
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 4: nations encourage and inspire, and indeed require hard work and

14
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 4: maximum effort. If we deify the common man while they

15
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 4: encourage and reward the un common ones, well, the end

16
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 4: result of such a lopsided race as that is too

17
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 4: obvious to require elaboration.

18
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 3: I mean it's like, hello, obvious in your mirror may

19
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 3: be closer than they appear. Huh.

20
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 5: For those of you from out of town, you know

21
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 5: that was a joke. A Joke's a joke, Yeah, Rosie lucky,

00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,880

64
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: Only the wheel of topic?

65
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 2: No commons. Golf game and I hadn't even planned on

66
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 2: playing today. What'd you shoot today? Eighty one? Where'd you

67
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: hit it on one? We played at Loggers Trail? Where'd

68
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 2: you hit it on one? Right up the gun? How

69
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 2: far from the green?

70
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: I had a wedge in my hand. Second shot, it

71
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: came up just a bit short up you know number

72
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: one at Loggers. You know it's a pop up green,

73
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: So it wasn't down below, was up on the rough,

74
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: but just you know, like about a foot off the frint.

75
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: Then what well, then I'm I tested the green. And

76
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: let's just say the greens were a little lively this morning. Really, well,

77
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: it's been getting so cold at night that they're a

78
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: little they're starting to get hard now, starting to get

79
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: to that time of the year where it's hard to

80
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: hold the greens. But as the day goes by, as

81
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: the morning went by, they softened up on the back.

82
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: So that first one I hit a soft little pitch,

83
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: but it hitting and it was like a trampline, well

84
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: not quite like a trampoline, but it was like it

85
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: was like a tabletop in an Well.

86
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 2: Then I made the ten footer coming back.

87
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: In the first five holes, I made U two two

88
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: twelve footers for par I mean, I was putting better

89
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: than ninety percent of the players on too it, but

90
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 1: I kind of let it get away late. But I I,

91
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: you know, for not having played since gosh, it's been

92
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: forever since I've played last last Friday, well that's for me,

93
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: like forever.

94
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 2: I actually felt pretty good about the way I played today.

95
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: So there were moments where you said, rust, yeah, I

96
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: mean it was fine. I mean I had you know,

97
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 1: I made the front, I made the turn at forty.

98
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: Then I three putted ten and what happened was it

99
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,799
Speaker 1: was a middle right pan and I pulled my approach left,

100
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 1: so you know, it's kind of a horseshoe green. I

101
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: actually thought I was going to have to put it

102
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 1: over the fringe, but I pulled the putt a little bit.

103
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: Was a good thing I did, because it caught. It

104
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: didn't hit the fringe and it went up and again

105
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: I just didn't hit it hard and it ended up

106
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: being about fifteen feet short, and I missed the fifteen footer,

107
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: but yeah, and then I hit a couple of bad

108
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: shots on sixteen and it's that was the I made

109
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: one double today and it.

110
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 2: Was on sixteen, the par five.

111
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 1: So but I did make birdie on eighteen, a nice

112
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: little nine footer to make birdie on the final all day,

113
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: so all's well. That ends well and the round ended well.

114
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: We do have an action packed show today. The head

115
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 1: coach of the soon to be Big Game World champion

116
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings, Kevin O'Connor, will address the assembled media a

117
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: media twelve forty five today. Tennaby is that his scheduled

118
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: start time. That's the rumor, Live from a TCO Performance

119
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: Center the New Winter Park. And now we're we've moved

120
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: Brian Oak now, and thanks for doing that. I know

121
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: that you had suggested it and you took care of

122
00:06:59,040 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: that as a good producer.

123
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 2: Would you've moved him to one thirty because.

124
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: It seems like the head coach is always doing twelve

125
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: forty five now? Well?

126
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 3: So Oak was originally one thirty, Yes, and then the

127
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 3: head coach kept doing his press commerce at one fifteen

128
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 3: one twenty, So then we moved Oak to twelve thirty.

129
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 3: Now it's been three weeks in a row where the

130
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 3: head coach has been at twelve forty five, So I

131
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 3: don't know if this is a permanent move to one

132
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 3: thirty for Oak, or at least for today.

133
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 2: So there you go.

134
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: And then the legendary Mark rose And will join us

135
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: at at uh oh boy two o'clock, and then I'm

136
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: probably going to ask him again, would you trade Anthony

137
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: Edwards for Victor webin Yama. He hates when I ask

138
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: him that now because he had no idea how good

139
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: Wemban Yama really is.

140
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 3: He had you know, he doesn't pay attention. Yeah, he's

141
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 3: never watched one Midia play.

142
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he doesn't know anything really about him other

143
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: than he knows he's tall. He's tall, and his name

144
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: is Victor, and I don't even know he would pronounce

145
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: it wemban Yama. I wonder if he even knows how

146
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: to pronounce it. We'll ask him when he comes in.

147
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: I'll say, pronounce Victor's last name is if he can.

148
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: And at first was not in a million years all

149
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: of a sudden, like well, the only I'd be worried

150
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: about his injuries?

151
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 6: So what for?

152
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: Not in a million years?

153
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: To well, if I if you guaranteed stay healthy, I'll

154
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: make the trade today.

155
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 2: A couple of other players. I wonder too, if Mark

156
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 2: Rosen would trade uh and for We'll ask him about

157
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: those as well. I did see tennebe.

158
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: I love. The basketball community tends to get annoyed with

159
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: you and I well, I think me for sure, and

160
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: a little bit with you because you're mister hockey guy.

161
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 3: Yeah you know, and you always like to bring up

162
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 3: I feel like we're against each other.

163
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we're really not.

164
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: And I just for me being the the the the

165
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: the ambassador or the president of the Tough Love Covenant,

166
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: I I just I I really feel like in in basketball,

167
00:08:54,640 --> 00:09:02,839
Speaker 1: teams will oftentimes take time off and I get pushedback

168
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: from people. They go, oh, no, that's not true. You're

169
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: making it up. Other you know, other sports do it,

170
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: and stuch like that. Here's a prime example. This was

171
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 1: one of my listeners texted me this.

172
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 2: Uh he said, hold on, so just talk.

173
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: You might enjoy this quote from Jimmy Buckets probably take

174
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: up a thirteen to fourteen minute segment. Here's the quote

175
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: from from Buckets, the fight. Honestly, I think that the

176
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: fight's not always there. We got to fight no matter what.

177
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: Most of that fighting I'm talking about is on the

178
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: defensive end. Not getting stops means you're just not playing hard.

179
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: You're just not doing whatever it takes to win. And

180
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: when I bring that up the basketball community and the Wolves,

181
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: especially because the Wolves are maybe I don't know, I'm

182
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: not paying this close attention to the NBA in general

183
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: and specifically the Wolves as I once did. But I

184
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: think the Wolves seem to do it more than any

185
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 1: other team in the league.

186
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 2: It just seems that way as I see the same

187
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 2: quotes from them all the time. How the effort wasn't there.

188
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: We got to give a hundred percent first game of

189
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: the season or first or second, we had, we had Devincenzo,

190
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: Devin Senzo saying that, well, if we're not giving any effort,

191
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: we're not going to win any ball.

192
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 2: This was at the beginning of the season, first game.

193
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: It's not even like they were on you know, the

194
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: fourth game in a week, you know, back to back

195
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: they played. You know, they played on a Tuesday, a Thursday,

196
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: and then Saturday Sunday, and Sunday afternoon was a matinee,

197
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: and so they were a little tuckered. This is like

198
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: second game of the season, first game of the season.

199
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: So here's Jimmy Bucketts saying the same thing he's saying.

200
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: He says, right here, he goes, not getting stops.

201
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: Means you're just not playing hard, because that's what it is.

202
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 2: I've said it forever.

203
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: I played basketball, not at a high level like I

204
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: did boot hockey, and not like football where.

205
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 2: I was a fierce pass rushing rocket grobalta run stopping

206
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 2: defensive lineman. I played both sides at the ball, by

207
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 2: the way, and.

208
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: I was a precise route running, surehanded, pass catching tight end.

209
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: I was a hell of a boot hockey goaltender. There

210
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: was a where I may have been the best boot

211
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: hockey goaltender, not only in the Twin Cities, not only

212
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: in Minnesota, but maybe in the whole entire Rupper Midwest,

213
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: maybe in the country, in the world, maybe in the world.

214
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: But I've played enough pickup basketball to know that defense

215
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,559
Speaker 1: is mostly effort. I know, you know, there's there's defensive schemes,

216
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: and there's you know, you know, week and weak side

217
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: help and strong side help and you know, weak and

218
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: strong side help, and there's this, and then you.

219
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 2: Have to be connected and all that. But it's mostly

220
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 2: just effort.

221
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: Just get in the guy's face, don't deny the guy

222
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: the ball, don't let him touch the ball, get in

223
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: the passing lanes, try to make a steal every once

224
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: in a while.

225
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 2: And most teams a lot of players don't want to.

226
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: Do it because they just and I don't know if

227
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: it's like an unwritten rule or if they have a

228
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 1: you know, ah am, I trying to say this, like

229
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: they have an agreement before the games. It's just like, hey,

230
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: if you don't try real hard on defense, we won't either.

231
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: Let's just see who can outscore who, right, almost like

232
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: it's an All Star games.

233
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 2: You know, they ever play defense in All Star Games?

234
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 1: So But there's further proof for those of you who

235
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: want to attack me and say, don't what I'm talking about.

236
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,079
Speaker 1: Here's one of the best players in the National Basketball Association,

237
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: my favorite player in the NBA, and I would not

238
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: trade in a million years Jimmy Buckets for Victor Weymanyama.

239
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 2: Not in a million years. But just so there you

240
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:19,839
Speaker 2: have it.

241
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: One of the best players and one of the best

242
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: defensive players in the league says, not getting.

243
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 2: Stops means you're not playing hard.

244
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: So that should seal it. Signed, sealed, delivered on yours.

245
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: Stevie Wonder, I think did that originally, and I think

246
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 1: Peter Frampton did a cover of it as well. We'll

Speaker 1: Late last night when I got home, it was about

282
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: a half past ten.

283
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 2: I think I told you Tenmy My habit now.

284
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: Is to fall asleep on the couch and then wake

285
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: up midnight one o'clock in the morning. Then I go

286
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: about my brush, my teeth, ready for wash, my face,

287
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: get ready for bed right, and then I sit and

288
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: I'll scan.

289
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 2: I'm doing show prep.

290
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: I'm much like Adam Schefter. He's tweeting at two or

291
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: three o'clock in the morning. I'm actually reading late at night.

292
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: So it's about twelve thirty and I stumble across the lobelly.

293
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: Neil the third's piece on JJ McCarthy Bear's QB Caleb Williams,

294
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four number one pick sets a blueprint

295
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: for JJ McCarthy. So he talks about the growing pains

296
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: of Caleb Williams. If you remember his first year, which

297
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 1: was last year, he did struggle. He had he he

298
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: was sacked on, he hung out of the ball too much.

299
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 2: He just he had a very mediocre season.

300
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: Some of it for some of it is own doing

301
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: by hanging out of the ball, by not getting rid of.

302
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 2: The ball, taking sacks some of it.

303
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: I don't think the coaching staff was tip top, and

304
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: and he didn't have a lot of help on the

305
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,359
Speaker 1: offensive line, much like we've seen happen with the Vikings.

306
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: But he has gotten better this year. The Bears are

307
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: six and three, they have a rebuilt offensive line, and

308
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: they're doing well. And LaBelle points all this stuff out.

309
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: But what he says here tend to be He says,

310
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 1: with more reps and coach Kevin O'Connell's guidance, McCarthy can

311
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: one day flourish like Daniels Nicks and may have. Williams

312
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: isn't there yet either, but it is making progress. He

313
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: includes a quote from O'Connell saying all experience being good

314
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: experience for him right now. You'd love to make them

315
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: all after wins, but we got to do the things

316
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: required as a team, and then JJ is going to

317
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: make a lot of those plays for us, and like

318
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: I said, to compete. His willingness to lay it on

319
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: the line and try to make the plays are very

320
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: much things we knew about him. But now it's just

321
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 1: about continuing to carve this thing and shape it in

322
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 1: a way where we're helping him become the best version

323
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: of himself, both short term and long term. Then Lavell

324
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: closes it out by saying, it's impossible to determine how

325
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: long it will take McCarthy to consistently flourish. Right now,

326
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: it's easy to see how volatile development can be. It's

327
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: impossible to determine how long it will take McCarthy to

328
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 1: consistently flourish.

329
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 3: So I then.

330
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:37,360
Speaker 1: Texted LaBelle Neil. This would have been at twelve ten

331
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: last night or this morning. I said, it's also possible

332
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: McCarthy will never flourish. Then I went to bed. He

333
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: did respond forty minutes later, Wow, he was up.

334
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 2: He said, run with that.

335
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: So then when I woke up at six am to

336
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 1: get ready for my day, I saw him say run

337
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: with that. And I said, you make it sound like

338
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: it's a guarantee he'll be really good, that he just

339
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 1: needs time.

340
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 2: The NFL landscape his fill to.

341
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: Top ten quarterback picks that were bus and most of

342
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: them had moments in their short careers that made it

343
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: appear they were going to be successful players for years

344
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: to come, but they never panned out. And he said,

345
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: I pointed out that we don't know what the final

346
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: product will be like as a Bears fan, I have

347
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: experienced watching quarterback prospects fail my assertions that he will improve.

348
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 2: He's still a young man, baby, I don't even know

349
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 2: what that means.

350
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: But no, what you said was in your piece you said,

351
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: we don't know how long it will take him to flourish. Well,

352
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: he may never flourish, So he very well could. It

353
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,679
Speaker 1: was almost like it was a given. And so I

354
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: just thought I chied him a little bit, and you know,

355
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: poke him a little bit and say, you know, you

356
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: just just because the head coach of the team says

357
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: that we're all headed in the right direction, He's going

358
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: to be fine, and it's a learning experience where carving

359
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: things out for him doesn't guarantee anything. Now, we've talked

360
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 1: about this every single week, every day of every week,

361
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: and I think you and I both are on the

362
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: same page. We're not giving up on him in any way,

363
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: shape or form. He has shown some signs ever been flashes.

364
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: That first Bears game he had in the uh the

365
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: victor over the Lions, he had he had some really

366
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: nice plays in the first half and then the toss

367
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 1: to Speedy nailor to to to to to clinch the

368
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: game was a really nice play as well, but it's

369
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 1: been more disappointment than anything so far. Right, I mean

370
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 1: it's it's just hasn't and again he's young and blah

371
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: blah blah, but so.

372
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 2: We'll learn more.

373
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: I think this week against the Bears, it's it's it's

374
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 1: I just it seems like people either think they've already

375
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,120
Speaker 1: made a determination he's he's going to be really good

376
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: because look at look at the struggles Josh Allen had

377
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: and Peyton Mann and had they add struggles, or they

378
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: think he's going to be a complete bust, and I,

379
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know. That's why for me, it's

380
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 1: like I want to play it out, but I just

381
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 1: want when I see or read or hear people either

382
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 1: make one determination or the other after four stars, I

383
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: think it's I think it's poppycock.

384
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's foolhardy.

385
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: I think you can't make that kind of you cat

386
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: if you want, and you might be right. You could

387
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 1: make the determination right now and say he's going to

388
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,159
Speaker 1: be a fifteen year starter for the Vikings and be

389
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: a franchise quarterback, and he might end up being that way,

390
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,719
Speaker 1: or you can say I don't think he's ever going

391
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: to get out of his second year in the league,

392
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 1: and you could be right there as well we'd all

393
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: be disappointed.

394
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 2: But I think it's just a little bit too easy.

395
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 3: I mean, there is a scenario that, like four months

396
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 3: from now, we're moving on to a different quarterback, right, Like,

397
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 3: it's not a guaranteed slam dunk. This guy is our

398
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,919
Speaker 3: guy for the next decade. He has to show you

399
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: something over here over the second half straight second hal

400
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:00,719
Speaker 3: half of the season.

401
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,679
Speaker 2: I think so, I do think so.

402
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 3: I know, I and people treat him like he's a rookie.

403
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 3: I get it from a game experience standpoint, he is,

404
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 3: but this is year two for him, so he's not

405
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 3: going through the year one rookie issues of learning and

406
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 3: professional offense for the first time, like he should have

407
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 3: all that stuff down. It's more of a you know,

408
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 3: learning NFL defenses and picking up the speed of play.

409
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 1: Well, then, when I checked my email this morning before

410
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: I went to go play golf, an emailer and I

411
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 1: think was a listener, emailed me to comment at camp

412
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 1: dot com, and I think it was coming on the

413
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: heels of our discussion yesterday about Sam Darnald, right, and

414
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 1: then he said, boy, people easily forget that Sam Donald

415
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 1: had two terrible games at the end.

416
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 2: Of the season.

417
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: Well, no, no, one's forgotten that he had a bad

418
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 1: game against Detroit. How many times do we have to

419
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 1: remind Speaking of reminding people, he said, do you have

420
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: to remind people are bad Donald was for two games?

421
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: Do you have to remind people that Donald was sacked

422
00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: nine times? The offensive line was so bad? Imediately following

423
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: the game, the head coach said, we're going to rebuild

424
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 1: the interior of the This is twenty minutes after the

425
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 1: end of the game. He's already declaring we need help

426
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: on the offensive offensive line. Darnold was, for the most part,

427
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: really really good last year. He's been really really good

428
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: this year. If you're going to take one game and

429
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: it was a critical game, I'll give you that. I mean,

430
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: it was against Detroy, final game of the season. They

431
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: could have clinched home field a manage. But if you're

432
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 1: going to say one poor performance, one game where you

433
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: played really poorly, if you're going to say, well that's

434
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: how you determine a quarterback, well, then there's not a

435
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: quarterback in the league you'd ever be able to trust

436
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 1: because even the best of all time if had struggles before,

437
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: especially early early on. So it's I just have to

438
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: roll my ax, shrug my shoulders, and shake my head.

439
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to this Sunday's game. This should be

440
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: a game where the Vikings should be able to get

441
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 1: back on track. And I know that there have been people,

442
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: Well let's break, we got more to get to. A

443
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,959
Speaker 1: short break will come back. Don't forget the head coach.

444
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: At about twelve forty.

445
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 6: Five, Bonus Bucks is back on kfan.

446
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 3: We have nine chances freedom win one thousand dollars every weekday.

447
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 3: That's every hour from nine a m. Until five pm.

448
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 3: To answer the qwords and learn more, head to kfan

449
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 3: dot com. Bonus Bucks is presented by two men in

450
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 3: a junk truck Gouble.

451
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 2: Thirteen fourteen past common man, full of them. I'm common,

452
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 2: He's tend to be. Here's what I think the issue is.

453
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 1: I haven't wanted to really say it, or I guess

454
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,000
Speaker 1: I just haven't felt like bringing it up. But here's

455
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: the truth of the matter is the people that are

456
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: pushing back on you and I saying McCarthy hasn't been

457
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: playing very well.

458
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 2: He's the jury still out.

459
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: They are such die hard Viking fans and so badly

460
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 1: want him to be that they're in denial. They don't

461
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: want to any criticism at all. For instance, how about

462
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: this text mean? Now I know you're thinking I made

463
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: this up or this is a AI generated text.

464
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 2: McCarthy.

465
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: Really, McCarthy's been more disappointment than encouraging. He's played in

466
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,919
Speaker 1: three games for the old line has been a box

467
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: of band aids since the start of the season, and

468
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 1: the rest of the team pretty much shot themselves against

469
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 1: the Ravens with self inflicted with or shot themselves against

470
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: the Ravens with self inflicted wounds. Don't blame McCarthy for

471
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: twenty one other player's poor performance or the coaching performances.

472
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 2: The offensive line was intact last week.

473
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 1: Last week they had all four of their starting their

474
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: two starting tackles, and their two starting guards and their center.

475
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 1: They've been raving about Brandle. They say this is probably

476
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:55,679
Speaker 1: his natural position. He's in for the for concussion guy.

477
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 1: He threw forty two passes and completed twenty se wounds

478
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 1: came from JJ mccarrtly. He was the one that was

479
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: having trouble with the cadence that those eight on false starts.

480
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: The coach admitted, they're on the quarterback. He was overthrowing

481
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 1: wide receive. Did you see how many times he overthrew.

482
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,200
Speaker 3: Wide receives perceptions he wasn't pressured on.

483
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 2: Are you watching the same game?

484
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 1: Look, we all want him to do well, and we

485
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,880
Speaker 1: think he has a chance. But to try to pretend

486
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: that he's not the biggest issue with the team right now,

487
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: you're lying to yourself, he said the other twenty one players.

488
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: The defense was brilliant is probably too strong of a word,

489
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: but they kept stopping the Ravens and holding him to

490
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 1: field goals. They were on the field forever. Late in

491
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 1: the game, they gave up some tuddies, but how long

492
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: are they supposed to keep their finger in the dike?

493
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 3: One of those tuddies was a turnover in your own territory.

494
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 2: That's that is correct.

495
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: It's like, folks, quit coddling the kid, and we know

496
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: you want him to play really well, but he's not

497
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 1: your kid. You watch your kid play hockey, you do,

498
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 1: and I watched my boy play basketball. You want the

499
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: best form and you don't want him to do anything

500
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: but he's JJ McCarthy's not your kid. This is the

501
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: National Football League, this is this is big time sports.

502
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter how old you are, how much experience you have,

503
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: you're either making the play as here or not. No

504
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: one's saying he needs to be cut, no one's saying

505
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: he needs to be benched. But to pretend that he

506
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 1: hasn't been literally awful for the most part.

507
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 2: He's had his.

508
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,719
Speaker 1: Moments fourth quarter of the Bears game, and he had

509
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: his moments against Detroit, and he had his moments against

510
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: but for the but every quarterback has moments in games.

511
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: That's why they're in the NFL.

512
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 3: Be consistent, Yeah, that's what well, So it's definitely a

513
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 3: hand in hand thing.

514
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: I'd rather talk about my golf game, I know really,

515
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: because it's just getting to the point. Look, if if if,

516
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: if you want to coddle the head coach or the

517
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: the the the quarterback, and you want to hear nothing

518
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: but ducky and bunny about him, then nine of news

519
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 1: are placed to go right because I'm I'm being told

520
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 1: that pa is all in on them kids, is going

521
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: to be a great quarterback, and maybe it will be.

522
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 2: I don't know.

523
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,239
Speaker 3: I would say the jury is still out. That's what

524
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 3: I was, That's.

525
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 2: What I'm saying too. That's all we're trying to say.

526
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 1: Here will break, We'll come back, and then the head

527
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: coach would sooner be a big game world champion.

528
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 2: Minnesota Viking Roll have his midweek news conference right here

529
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 2: in the fan
