1
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: It's time headache. I do.

2
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 2: Right now. He's brought to us by RBC Wealth Management

3
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: two athletic subscriptions.

4
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 3: I only bought one.

5
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 2: I have a sneaking suspicion the Wolves are done sons

6
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: and four that's from flim Flam Wow shots from Dylan.

7
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 2: It might have been Dylan the villain. That's why I

8
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 2: brought it up. That's getting a lot of I dare say,

9
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 2: in my opinion, way too much attention. Too many Wolves

10
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: people have bit on exactly what Dylan offered up. We

11
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 2: this's the team where we want to play in the playoffs.

12
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: I I would not have given him the satisfaction of

13
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: reacting to it because I think there's been way too

14
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: much reaction. What do you make of it?

15
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, like I well, first of all, I

16
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: do understand Wolves fans wanting to react because he's such

17
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: a loathsome personality that you just you want to dunk

18
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: on him, you want to punch him in the face,

19
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: you want to do all of those things. And and

20
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 1: but that's also what he feeds off of. That's what

21
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: she wants. Yeah, he wants that response. He has been very,

22
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: very good this season for the Phoenix Sun and so

23
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: it is clear that he is already trying to set

24
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: it up to win some kind of psychological battle against

25
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 1: the wolves. And so in some ways, the fans, at

26
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: least I don't know how the players have reacted yet,

27
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: but the fans are kind of walking into his trap

28
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: right now. And this is where he wants you guys,

29
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: is what I would say. And and you followed it,

30
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: you know you you you've you've followed it right in

31
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: and now you're you're hanging from the tree one legged

32
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: that after it kind of got came up and got you.

33
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: So that's what he wants the mission accomplished on his part.

34
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: But I would not be unhappy with a Wolf Sun's

35
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: first round matchup. If that's the way it went for

36
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: the war, let me do it.

37
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 2: Then they make the toss up question a more general

38
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 2: one about the current condition of the Western Conference. And

39
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,239
Speaker 2: I ask because every year we assume, oh my god,

40
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 2: what a meat grinder the Western Conference is the number

41
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 2: of teams you have to go through, the number of

42
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 2: teams that might be viewed as legitimate, if not championship contenders,

43
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 2: contenders to make a big time run. But I want

44
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: an updated view based on what we have with what

45
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 2: eighteen nineteen games left in the season, if there's any

46
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 2: changes from let's say, if you go back to the

47
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 2: beginning of the season, about who scared you compared to

48
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 2: who has gotten your attention now? Is it still man,

49
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: there's still five or six teams where I go, I

50
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 2: wouldn't want to go near any of them. Is it no,

51
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 2: there's a couple that have set braided themselves. Or how

52
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: do you view I'm asking you basically to view the

53
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 2: wolves most important competition based on the way this season

54
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 2: has played out to this point.

55
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do think two things have changed demonstrably from

56
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: the start of the season with regard to the Western Conference. One,

57
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: first and foremost, I thought I thought, and a lot

58
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: of people thought, it was going to be like one

59
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: through thirteen. It's going to be a battle and every

60
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: single night, and you're gonna go on the road and

61
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: you're gonna face Utah and Portland and all these other teams,

62
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: and it's going to be really, really difficult. And really

63
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: what we have seen is there's been more tankers or

64
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: more struggling teams in the West than certainly I thought.

65
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: Golden States joined that group. Utah has been a just

66
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: a ridiculous embarrassment, you know, Sacramento, all of these teams,

67
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: and so it's been a lot weaker at the bottom

68
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: than I thought. But then the big change at the

69
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: top is I was not worried at all of San

70
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: Antonio going into the season. Now I think everyone needs

71
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: to be incredibly worried. Yes, they are young, they have

72
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: not won the playoff series yet. In almost always in

73
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: the NBA, you have to win a round or two

74
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: and then lose, and that's how you learn and you

75
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 1: grow in the playoffs and you go forward. And that

76
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: very well may be the case for these Spurs. But man,

77
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: I mean, well, looks unbelievable. Harper and Castle look big

78
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: and tough, and they are looking like as much of

79
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: a challenger in the West as okayc is right now.

80
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: And so the Spurs have definitely jumped up. Maybe Denver

81
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: has fallen back, just to pitch, but San Antonio is

82
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,239
Speaker 1: a team that I look at and you say, man,

83
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: that is going to be a monster of a series

84
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: to deal with for whoever gets them in round one,

85
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: Round two, round three. However that shakes out.

86
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 2: Do we look at the Saturday game as just another

87
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 2: inevitable series of hiccups that the Wolves are not the

88
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 2: only team that have occasionally fall privy to or was

89
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 2: it a little bit more concerning given the I think

90
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 2: when we end up losing by twenty seven, maybe that

91
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 2: shouldn't matter. How did you view the Saturday Matt Ne affair?

92
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, for right now, at this moment, I'm

93
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,359
Speaker 1: willing to, you know, kind of move past that. Fairly

94
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 1: quickly teams lose in this league. It just happens. The

95
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: Wolves have been played really well, uh at won five

96
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: in a row. They're six and one after the break

97
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: until that law and sometimes that it happens, and you

98
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: look at how many games are Dante DiVincenzo, Jade McDaniels,

99
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: and I would assume we're going to go one for

100
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: twenty one from the field. Like that's just that's an

101
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: anomalous thing. And so it's kind of easy to kind

102
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,799
Speaker 1: of move past that. But you know, if they if

103
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: that kind of lingers and they go into La tomorrow

104
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: night and play the Lakers and lay another egg, that

105
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: then you start to just wonder a little bit more

106
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: about it. But uh, you know, I'll kind of give

107
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: them the pass on that just because I don't usually

108
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: see that poorum shooting from three of their main guys,

109
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: and and you just let them move on from it.

110
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 1: But we'll see how they respond to it in LA

111
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: tomorrow night and and and see if there's if there's

112
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: any more there than just the normal hiccups that happen

113
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: to I promise you will, fans, Almost every team in

114
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: the league goes through these little things, these these little losses.

115
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 1: It does happen. You don't need to fire everyone and

116
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: trade everyone after just one of these things, you know,

117
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: crops up.

118
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 2: Do you believe the master plan is now being set

119
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 2: as the Wolves going forward into the rest of the

120
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 2: season and the playoffs with basically a nine man rotation

121
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:47,559
Speaker 2: for sure.

122
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's definitely set up, and it may even be

123
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 1: eight point five Dan terms of you know, you look

124
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: at how Chris Finch will use it, and I do

125
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: kind of think that, you know, obviously of the starting five,

126
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: and then you of Nasried and I just to move

127
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 1: our in Stone like though that's your top seven. And

128
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: then I do think he's going to look at basically

129
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: Bone Thailand and Kyle Anderson, and if Bones is having

130
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: one of those off nights, the shot isn't falling where

131
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: he's turning things over, then you're going to see heavy

132
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: Kyle Anderson minutes. If Bones is rolling and he's scoring

133
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: twelve points in ten minutes, then you're gonna see more

134
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: Bones and less Kyle. I don't think you're going to

135
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: see a whole lot of Terrence Shannon Jr. You may

136
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: see Baron Jay like just spot minutes here and there,

137
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: depending on follow trouble. But yes, I think it's those

138
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: nine and that last that eighth spot is going to

139
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: kind of fluctuate depending on opponent and depending on the

140
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: performance of Bone Thailand on that particular.

141
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 2: Night, and that certainly sounds more favorable than I felt

142
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: about their bench. I don't know halfway through the season

143
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: right because I have to admit maybe I got two

144
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: down on Bones Highland.

145
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 3: Maybe that's part of the issue.

146
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 2: But he has shown, you know, some improvement and has

147
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: shown there on many nights there is a place for him,

148
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 2: especially now paired with the Sumu, where you can maybe

149
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 2: change the pace a little bit and they can get

150
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 2: out a run a little bit, and so you at

151
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: least I think, do see the semblance once again the

152
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 2: makings of a bench. It may not be the same

153
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 2: bench from two years ago, but a bench that does

154
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 2: give you a chance to continue to compete.

155
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely. I think that was one of their weaknesses

156
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: at the start of the season because they were trying

157
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: to get Dillian Ham and Shannon into the mix, and

158
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: both of those guys, for various reasons, it was not

159
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: working out. And so then basically they got into a

160
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: situation where if Nasrid wasn't scoring fifteen points or eighteen points,

161
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: they weren't going to get much production from their bench

162
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: at all. Now you have the Summu in there, who

163
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: I just really love the fit, even though some of

164
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: the games haven't been perfect so far, I just really

165
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: think that he's as close to Nick Heel Alexander Walker

166
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: as you're going to get. And so that's been a

167
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: big help. And you're right, Bones just is the perfect

168
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: eighth guy or ninth guy in terms of a microwave,

169
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: and you throw him out there and then you see

170
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: if he can just change the energy on the court

171
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: when you need it, get a couple of threes, get

172
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: out and run, score and transition, and then if it's

173
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: not happening, Dan, it's not the end of the world anymore.

174
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: When you have Io there, and you can go to

175
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 1: Kyle Anderson if you need more steadiness, if you need

176
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: just more playmaking in IQ out there, then you go

177
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,559
Speaker 1: to him. And so they have versatility now that they

178
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: did not have before. And I think that makes them

179
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: a lot more dangerous in the playoffs, just to be

180
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: able to match up depending on the opponent and whatever

181
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: is happening in a given game.

182
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 2: Why do all your trips happen to be to Los

183
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 2: Angeles when you're tracking the Wolves or to California. I

184
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: mean that's good, it is, But.

185
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: If the Grizzlies were in case Engine, uh, you know,

186
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,119
Speaker 1: if it was you know, if it was the Pacers

187
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: that that was a big game, I'd go there. I

188
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: go where the big games are. Dan, I'm a big

189
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: game journalist. I'm a big game guy. So Lakers Wolves

190
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: on Tuesday night is a big one, and then the

191
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 1: next day is the Clippers, and so it's why why

192
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't you just stick around? It's right next door, So

193
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 1: I might as well just hang around and get to

194
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: for the price to one. I will be in Oklahoma

195
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: City this weekend well for that throwdown. So I just

196
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: go where the games are, Man and That's that's all

197
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: I can do.

198
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 2: Uh is Lebron supposed to be ready by Tuesday. He

199
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 2: didn't play in their victory over the Nicks yesterday?

200
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: Did he We did not play. And it is interesting,

201
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: you know, I think it's I think they said that

202
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: he's got some kind of arthritis or something that he's

203
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: dealing with, and a few other things, so it's unclear.

204
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: The real interesting thing right now for the Lakers, dan Is,

205
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: is that when Lebron sits out, they usually play really

206
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: really well. With with Don Chic and Reeves in that group,

207
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: it's when all three of them are together that they

208
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 1: really play their worst basketball. And so crazy as it

209
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: may sound, the Wolves may hope that Lebron plays on

210
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: Tuesday night because that's when the Lakers have looked their

211
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: most vulnerable. I don't know exactly why that is, but

212
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 1: just the three pieces don't seem to mesh quite as well.

213
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 2: You Know, what I thought i'd read or heard was

214
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: that when just two of the not just a matter

215
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 2: of Lebron being the guy, when just two of the three,

216
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 2: regardless of which one is out, are left, that the

217
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 2: team has tended to be better. I'm sure people you

218
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 2: know can tract that sort of thing, and I guess

219
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 2: some it probably has to do with the old They

220
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 2: all kind of like the ball, right, and they all

221
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: kind of need the ball to be to be influential.

222
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 2: So it'd be interesting to see how that plays out.

223
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 2: RBC Wealth Management brings us Johnny Athletic bonus Ben Gesling

224
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 2: at five point thirty today.

225
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 3: Are you all in.

226
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 2: On what now is apparently all but a done deal,

227
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray coming to the Vikings?

228
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: You know? I'm in in the respect of I don't

229
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: think that there was anything better out there, and so

230
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 1: would I like Kyler Murray at thirty million or forty

231
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 1: million dollars a year forty five? No, I would hate that.

232
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: Do I like him at one point five million? Yeah?

233
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: I do? Comparatively speaking, I just didn't think Dan that,

234
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 1: aside from the impossible kind of scenario of trading for

235
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, I don't think that there's a quarterback out

236
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 1: there that, if they were to get you'd say, Okay,

237
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: no problem, They're all set. Super Bowl here we come.

238
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: And so Murray has produced in the past, he is

239
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: an entirely different quarterback, So I think it will require

240
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: some adaptability from koc that maybe we necessarily have not

241
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: seen to this point in his Viking tenure as head coach,

242
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: But he certainly does have a ceiling on him that

243
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: if you were to reach it a little higher than

244
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: I think a lot of the other guys that were available.

245
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: So at one point five million, sure, why not give

246
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 1: it a shot. But it's certainly not going to be

247
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: one of those where I look at and say, Okay,

248
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: they have him, all problems are solved. I'm going to

249
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: be ready to work at the first weekend in February

250
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 1: at the super Bowl for this team. I just don't

251
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: think it's that easy and that simple.

252
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 3: I can't get you to bite on a can.

253
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: I I would take him. I said it last year.

254
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: I would take him because a it would be incredibly

255
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: compelling theater for another former packer legend to come back here.

256
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: He likes to rock the boat, you know. He wants

257
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: to kind of give you answers with a twinkle in

258
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: his eye and a smirk and get everyone in it's

259
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: hissy like. As a storyteller and a journalist, I'd love it.

260
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: How much does he have left in the tank? I

261
00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: don't know, man, I really don't. Does he have more

262
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: more than Kyler Murray. Maybe he's a you know, but

263
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: it's clear. It sure seems clear to me that the

264
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: Vikings don't want to deal with that headache right now

265
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 1: and they see a younger Murray as the better one.

266
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 1: But I sign me up if you were to come here,

267
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: I'd be there at the introductory press conference and riding

268
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: that whole thing through because it would be a roller

269
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: coaster in every way. You would want as a journalist

270
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: to just just tell that story on.

271
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 2: Air production meeting guards you will you have ready for

272
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 2: me in a moment the sound I asked for from

273
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 2: Steve Kerr because I do want to play that for

274
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 2: Johnny in a little bit. Maybe we'll do that towards

275
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 2: the end of our segment with with Johnny Athletic, let's

276
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 2: talk high school hockey for a moment. Yeah, a dramatic

277
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 2: as good a day and night of high school hockey

278
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 2: as you can hope for. Correct both games going to

279
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 2: believe Class A double A goes into double overtime. There's

280
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 2: been a lot discussion since, and by the way, we

281
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 2: spent almost the first hour of Sunday sermons on the

282
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 2: hockey on how much it paid off the whole bit,

283
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: but eventually we did get to We didn't lead with

284
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: it's important, but we did eventually get to a couple

285
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: of things.

286
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 3: What Guardzis High School did.

287
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 2: In the semifinals at the end of the game, which

288
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: in which as close to a full all out brawl

289
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 2: as I remember seeing in a high school bleeping hockey game,

290
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 2: for God's sake, broke out, and a lot of it

291
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 2: seemed to be IDNA just incapable of dealing with the

292
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 2: fact that they got beat. But then that got lost

293
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 2: a little bit because Sunday as Minnetaka's blowing a three

294
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 2: nothing lead and then a four to one lead to

295
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 2: lose in doubt, I got a lot of texts from

296
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 2: people saying, I don't understand this whole bit. Where as

297
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 2: soon as the medal is put on you, it's like

298
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 2: you're trying to tear it off. It's just it's just

299
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 2: it's not a good look, no matter how much of

300
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 2: a tradition it's becoming in some places, and it's kind

301
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 2: of disappointing. I was more disappointed by the news that

302
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: nobody showed up to the postgame presser, which I know

303
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 2: you noted the night before, and I in a pecking order?

304
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 2: Am I going to be it's frustrated with the players

305
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 2: for not showing up. As the coach. No, again, it's

306
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 2: high school kids. I would still recommend you try, you

307
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 2: find a way. I know it's devastating, it's awful, But

308
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 2: to me, again I don't headline it, I don't lead

309
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 2: with it. But the coach has got to show right,

310
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 2: I mean, the coach has to show up. That's a

311
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 2: tone that's so important to set because you know what,

312
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 2: I know, high school hockey or high school sports generally,

313
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 2: even in twenty twenty six covered differently anything else. I mean,

314
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: people in their minds might say, man, that's a you know, bad,

315
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: need to blow whatever, But they're not going to savage

316
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 2: the team. In fact, in a game that goes in

317
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 2: and still ends up going to double overtime, they're go,

318
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 2: you go, that's an all timer. That's one of those

319
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 2: games are going to be remembering for a while. And

320
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 2: to me, that was the one thing that did kind

321
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 2: of take away from it. What did you think?

322
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you said it perfectly, Dan. Did I

323
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: like watching what the players did ripping the metals off, No,

324
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: I thought that looked spoiled. I thought that looked p extullent.

325
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 1: But I'm willing to give sixteen seventeen eighteen year old

326
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: kids passes on that You're not going to be acting

327
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: your best self all the time and the most mature,

328
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 1: well rounded individual in that moment. But what I will

329
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,639
Speaker 1: say is I think one of the reasons some of

330
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: them did act that way is the head coach has

331
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 1: to set a tone of how you lose with grace

332
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: and dignity. And you cannot hockey fans and MINNETAKA fans

333
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: and head coaches and all that. You cannot spend all

334
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,919
Speaker 1: years saying this Minnesota State High School hockey Tournament is

335
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: better than anything in the world. This is another level.

336
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: You have to be there and experience it. It's such

337
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: special occasion. And then say, well, we don't have to

338
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: do media at that, and that, why do I have

339
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: to do that like that, I don't owe you anything

340
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 1: when you don't owe the media anything, but what you do, oh,

341
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: is you owe your kids setting an example of hey,

342
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: this is how you handle defeat and adversity. And also, yes,

343
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 1: you're right, they're not Goldsworthy. Was not going to be

344
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: put over the colls. Why did you why didn't you

345
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: change this line with that lie? Why didn't you do this?

346
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 1: Why didn't do you? What he's gonna when he had

347
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 1: the opportunity to do is get up there when his

348
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: team had its heart ripped out and was probably a

349
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: little embarrassed and say, you know what, this team was

350
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: number one in the state all year. I am so

351
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: proud of these kids. They fought, it didn't go our way.

352
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,360
Speaker 1: We're gonna be better for this over the long haul.

353
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,439
Speaker 1: We're gonna learn from this, We're gonna grow from this.

354
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 1: But these guys, they put their blood, sweat and tears

355
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: on the ice for me, and I couldn't be more

356
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: damn proud. And instead this guy goes and runs and

357
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 1: hides and it just looks very cowardly and very petulant

358
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: in the moment. And so when you see him act

359
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 1: that way, then you say, you know what, maybe I

360
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: know why those kids acted that way in that moment.

361
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: Maybe the example is being set in the wrong direction.

362
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: And I just I frankly thought it was unprofessional and

363
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: he missed the moment. I really think that.

364
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 2: Well, you hit on a key part of this is

365
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 2: if if you want this event to be trumpeted as

366
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 2: more than a high school event, right, this is the event,

367
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 2: This is our crown jewel. Yeah, that means you're saying

368
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 2: it's big. It's covered as if it's big, wall to wall, TV, radio,

369
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 2: the fan, et cetera. If you believe that and you

370
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 2: want to strut about it and say we all have

371
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 2: to be proud of it, you can't suddenly say, as

372
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 2: some Texters did a Sunday morning, Oh, come on, what's

373
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,160
Speaker 2: a big deal. It's just you know, it's exactly it's

374
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 2: being a little frustrated. It's like, well, no, no, no,

375
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 2: this you're telling me all along that this is different

376
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 2: than any other high school event in its largeness, in

377
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 2: its bigness, right, And it's at the moment when it's

378
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: convenient for it, it's like, oh, it's just another high

379
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:16,719
Speaker 2: school game.

380
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 3: You know, other high school kids.

381
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 2: What's the big deal? So it doesn't have to be

382
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 2: the story of the century. We know there's a lot

383
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 2: more serious stories going on right now in the world

384
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 2: of sports and beyond. But I just think it was

385
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 2: so unnecessary. And if I felt like that the coach

386
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 2: was going to be in front of a firing squad

387
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,199
Speaker 2: of jackals going as you say, why did you make

388
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 2: this change or how about a time out here, coach

389
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,639
Speaker 2: or whatever. No one was going to do.

390
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 3: That after a game like that. That's the part that

391
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 3: we go.

392
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 2: Everything would have been positive, even about losing, as odd

393
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: as that sounds. And at the moment it's hard because

394
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 2: they've had such an incredible season. They're the top seed.

395
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 2: It's there for them twice. But no one was going

396
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 2: to be pounding away at them. Nobody that matters there

397
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 2: is going to be pounding away at them, other than

398
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 2: maybe a few online trolls. And so you bring it

399
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 2: down to a place that it never would have gotten to.

400
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,199
Speaker 2: It would have just been about the bigness of the

401
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 2: event and the bigness of the game itself, championship.

402
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: Game well, and one other thing on that dan which

403
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 1: we have seen from this coach and these and this

404
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 1: team before because they've won it before, right and others.

405
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: If they won the game, if they had closed that out,

406
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,959
Speaker 1: who would have been front and center answering every question

407
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 1: that you wanted? This coach Goldsworthy would have out there

408
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 1: and talked about how great it was and how great

409
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,160
Speaker 1: their team was. And he would have been out there

410
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: and sharing and doing everything and so if you're going

411
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: to do that, if it is a big deal when

412
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: you win, but all of a sudden when you lose,

413
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: I don't have to do any of this. That's that's

414
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: the long message. Yes, like that does not do anything

415
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: for your kids to show because this is not the

416
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: last big game they're going to lose in their hockey careers,

417
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 1: or if they go on to play in colleges, and

418
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: not the last bit of adversity they're going to have

419
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: in their lives and that and they just you know,

420
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 1: it just missed it out. It was really just it

421
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: was unfortunate. You're right. I don't think he should be fired.

422
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: I don't think he should be suspended or anything like that.

423
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: It's just unfortunate that that's the way it happened, and

424
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 1: it just sets the wrong tone of that unfortunately.

425
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,159
Speaker 3: Fairness and savagery.

426
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 2: An unnamed Texter who's listening to this and your comments

427
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 2: wrote this, I just want to I just I feel

428
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 2: like it's if I'm going to be fair, I have

429
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 2: to address this with you and then you can respond.

430
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 2: I think talk must have handed Johnny and Blaine football

431
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 2: a bad loss back in the day. Is there anything

432
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: to no personal that's a part of this particular rant

433
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 2: on your part.

434
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: You know what, He's not wrong whoever sent that in,

435
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: because you know, we never played them and lost at

436
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: least during my time at Blaine, but they did steal

437
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: head football coach from Blaine, the guy Dave Nelson, who

438
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: is like one of the major influences in my entire life.

439
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 2: Well, we called him Nelly, and we got a great

440
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 2: vibe with him. We call him Nelly, the amazing guy.

441
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 1: And and and he and and they threw a gobs

442
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: of money at him and all the power and everything,

443
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 1: and and he went. And you know, he's on Lake

444
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: Minnetonka and living living the life down there, and so uh,

445
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 1: maybe there is a little bitterness there about that. But

446
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: I can guarantee you if he would have lost that game,

447
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: he would have been talking to the media all the same.

448
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 3: That's so good.

449
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 2: Well did you hear what Seaffert said, Because Seffert in

450
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 2: the middle of this, this this whole culture, he's devastated,

451
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 2: he said, he said, all I want to say to

452
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 2: all the then and the detractors, We'll be.

453
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: Back, he said.

454
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 3: Kevin Seffert is on it.

455
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 2: He is in.

456
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 3: He is embedded.

457
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: Man what one of the jackals, one of the journals

458
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: wants to, as Brad Childers say, shoot come down the

459
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: hill and shoot the wounded. Yes, and now he now

460
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 1: he's covering for them and the little engine that could

461
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 1: at Minnetaka. And and and they'll be back after this.

462
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll be about that.

463
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 4: There was a cloud over the Mike Jamboree yesterday in Minnetaka.

464
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 4: I won't lie. There was a cloud the mites. The

465
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 4: mites had a tough time back and yeah, bouncing back

466
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 4: might connected.

467
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 2: My might was devastating. My might was devastated. Yeah, by

468
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,239
Speaker 2: the way, a text to all of us from six

469
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 2: to one to two guys, one player for me dined

470
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 2: as a chief shot, not the entire team of the

471
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 2: city itself.

472
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 3: Confirmation biases at work. Here is the Dina in want

473
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 3: to get in on that.

474
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,439
Speaker 4: Well, I'll respond to, uh, Maria wasn't innocent in all this.

475
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 4: Now watch all watch the games. I watched all of them.

476
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 4: There was a lot of stuff going on. The din

477
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 4: of guy ridiculous. Well, yeah, that was the problem. Ridiculous

478
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 4: And then you're in it at the end, you're gonna endup.

479
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 4: They were getting talked to going into the intermission, second

480
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,199
Speaker 4: and third period, there were these long conferences. There's a

481
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 4: lot going on. There was a lot going on, and

482
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 4: the greatest high school tournament in the country, which was.

483
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,159
Speaker 1: And one thing that needs to be said also is

484
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: it is kind of being characterized more nationally as this

485
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 1: little team from Morehead with the potato mapscot that toppled,

486
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 1: you know, that toppled the big rich kids in the

487
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: I think that they're the people in Morehead that you know,

488
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 1: a lot of the members of the hockey team are

489
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: exactly you know, out in the food stamp line right now.

490
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 1: I'll just say like that, it's a great program. They've

491
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 1: built a lot, they've gone up there and up there

492
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: Morehead and doing well for themselves as well. But you know,

493
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: given given who the choice, of course, I'm going going

494
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: Morehead's way. But yeah, that's not exactly just a ragtag

495
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: group either.

496
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 4: And they're they're about to win like ten in a row.

497
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 4: Two Morehead is exploded. There's five million cullins that just

498
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 4: keep coming at you.

499
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 2: And the team that the school that could never win

500
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 2: it and the chane gets in the championship game and

501
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 2: never win it.

502
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 3: To now they're never.

503
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 4: They may never loose at the youth level, which I'm

504
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 4: fortunately or unfortunately a big part of now they are

505
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 4: a wagon late. But nine five two guy also bitter,

506
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,479
Speaker 4: maybe with all of us, maybe more with you.

507
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 3: I don't know.

508
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 2: Goldie was more concerned about consoling the kids, Goldie than

509
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 2: pacifying media. Get over it, that's what he says.

510
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: Get knock it off. Consoling these guys. Yeah, okay, no,

511
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: you can do that. You can console them. And guess

512
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: what would console them more than anything, Get out there

513
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: and sing their praises to the public and tell your

514
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 1: side of the story. Let's make sure that Minnetaka is

515
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 1: represented in all of the game stories and things about

516
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: that rather than being well, the Skippers were unavailable for

517
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: comed Well, here's.

518
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 2: The thing, here's what's coming across to me, because, as

519
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 2: you know, essentially agree with you. But I think some

520
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 2: of your edge, which is you don't always have the

521
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 2: edge you're showing today, might be some of that resentment

522
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 2: that that unnamed texter brought up. So there might be

523
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: it might not all be altruistic here in this case,

524
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 2: it might be a little bit of extra juice because

525
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 2: of that previous baggage. Is that fair.

526
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 1: Uh, I don't think it is. I will say that

527
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,360
Speaker 1: I do have baggage, though, Dan, for high school coaches

528
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 1: who act this way, I do like I often you know,

529
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 1: I'm around pro guys and major college guys all the time,

530
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 1: and certainly I see plenty of that you know up

531
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,479
Speaker 1: up here as well. But when when when high school

532
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 1: coaches who are so important to kind of molding young

533
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,439
Speaker 1: people act this way, it does get in my pra

534
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 1: and I have done it with I remember the why

535
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: is that a Hopkins beef a year or two ago?

536
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 1: You know a lot of a lot of those things.

537
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: It's just I don't. I don't like it. I really don't.

538
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 1: It really rubs me the wrong way. And but uh,

539
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 1: and I just yeah, maybe maybe it's because my guy

540
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 1: who was stolen from Blamee by Minnetonka set set me

541
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: on the right path and set a great example for me.

542
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe that is a deep underneath it, a layer here.

543
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,400
Speaker 1: But but yeah, I don't think it's just an act

544
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,119
Speaker 1: to grind. It's just like that that fits with me,

545
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 1: though I do troule with along.

546
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 4: Those lines, Johnny, Before you go any words for Hopkins

547
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 4: coach and former Blaine coach Kenny Novak Junior on settying

548
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 4: the career coaching wins record within the past week and

549
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 4: their section win. Any words of encouragement or wisdom for coach.

550
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 2: Novak, I'm not sure he can outdo you when it

551
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 2: comes to Novak chief shots, right. I mean, you're the

552
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 2: leader in the clubhouse on that, aren't you. Johnny is

553
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 2: the guest.

554
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 4: First of all, you started hot by saying I'm a

555
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,919
Speaker 4: big game journalist. Josh Broughton loves that one. He texted

556
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 4: me immediately that was brilliant. This might be the best

557
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 4: RBC Wealth Management is getting their money worth that.

558
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 3: There's no question.

559
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, my my list is right outside waiting to take

560
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: me to the airport, so I'm better go get that

561
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: before get better.

562
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 2: All right, do this safe travels and we'll uh, we'll

563
00:28:58,480 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 2: be in touch.

564
00:28:58,920 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 3: Great stuff.

565
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 1: Thank you, Johnny, all right, Thank that.

566
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:06,479
Speaker 2: John Athletic headed west to track the Timberwolves and then

567
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 2: he's following them all the way across country to Oklahoma City.

568
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 2: Thunder Showdown is indeed coming up. We're starting to get

569
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 2: to that interesting part of the year. I think where

570
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 2: you can really pay more attention to regular season games,

571
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 2: even if occasionally the home team will lose it home

572
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: by whatever it was, thirty twenty seven, whatever the case

573
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 2: may be. Don't forget We've got Ben Gestling coming up

574
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 2: in about an hour. We've got a lot of other

575
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 2: I think good subjects to explore beyond the Vikings quarterback situation,

576
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 2: and we'll start doing a lot of that next seven six'

577
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 2: three guy listening to the the banter regarding the high

578
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 2: school hockey tournament and conduct afterwards on the part of

579
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 2: both The dina well actually late in and then after

580
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 2: in the case Of adyna and Then minnetonka after losing

581
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 2: the championship. Game don't forget That hibbing also took off their,

582
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 2: medals had to be called twice to pick up their

583
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 2: second place.

584
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 3: Trophy just because they were.

585
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 2: The quote unquote small, school they needed to act more

586
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 2: classy as. WELL i will, speak AND i don't know

587
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 2: how accurate that.

588
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 3: IS i wasn't watching that.

589
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 2: Ceremony i'll take him at his, word BUT i will say,

590
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 2: THIS i do think as much fun as we have

591
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 2: with The diyna stuff and the big suburban school, stuff

592
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 2: it can get a little lazy and a little easy

593
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 2: to associate a certain kind of behavior with one sort

594
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,239
Speaker 2: of school that no one at a smaller, school more

595
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 2: of a blue collar situation could ever be capable of

596
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 2: that kind of. Behavior now we can ALL i, guess

597
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 2: speak from our own experiences on, it on where it

598
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 2: might be more likely to take place for various. Reason

599
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 2: but it gets a little the emphasis should be on

600
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 2: the behavior rather than necessarily the school in which that

601
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 2: it took. Place as much fun as those tropes, are they,

602
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 2: are as the cliche, goes they can be rather lazy

603
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 2: on occasion as. Well there's a huge difference between pros

604
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 2: and high. School but one need the only needs to

605
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 2: go back a couple weeks when team candidate except their

606
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 2: silvers and beanie babies with class and we're. Available maybe

607
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 2: well that's why they stood, there because the beanie babies

608
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 2: are so. Valuable they are you have to earn. Those

609
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 2: you can't buy.

610

673
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 2: back for me to remember what it. Was and it

674
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:17,479
Speaker 2: was a good nugget reacting in this case to two

675
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 2: teams playing against one another.

676
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 3: Very much much smaller.

677
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 2: Schools but, yes it's because again for the people who

678
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 2: are who grew up in, it the history is. Rich

679
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 2: every bit as. Rich it stands out in a very similar.

680
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 2: FASHION i, mean you could have. It there's no question

681
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 2: that you could do a form Of hoosiers Celebrating minnesota

682
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 2: high school. Hockey there's no doubt about that if you

683
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 2: pick a a a certain, team build a screen. Player in,

684
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: Fact i'm surprised it hasn't happened, already to be honest with.

685
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:55,759
Speaker 2: This somebody hasn't done that to try. To maybe somebody

686
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:59,879
Speaker 2: hasn't even know it four. Classes, yeah AND i don't

687
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,959
Speaker 2: remember when they you, know eventually it Was, Hey, look

688
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 2: reality is we can't just stick with the romance Of.

689
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,919
Speaker 2: Hoosiers it's it's over similar really to what's happened. Here

690
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 2: now there's only, two, yep, Right but but we did

691
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 2: go to two and there was a big DEBATE i

692
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 2: remember us being in the middle of that over the

693
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 2: decades on what the right approach is and and and

694
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 2: how to how to if you're going to you're going

695
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 2: to separate the, classes how to go about doing. It

696
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 2: but it is, yeah in its own. Way the history is.

697
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 2: Great some of the matchups have been. Great there have

698
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:38,480

699
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,800
Speaker 2: gills you, know all along the, line even at the sectional,

700
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 2: level even at the regional, level even at the semi

701
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 2: state level as. Well we got need to get caught

702
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 2: up after going along With johnny AS i mentioned some

703
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 2: Bonus Ben gessling believe it or not to talk marathon running.

704
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 2: Today we'll give you more details on that a little bit.

705
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 2: Later we do have The curse sound to get to

706
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 2: at some. Point we've got another bit of sound THAT

707
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:04,400
Speaker 2: i enjoyed the from the pop culture. World and ALSO

708
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 2: i think a war In iran update THAT i want

709
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 2: to discuss that might be a kind of interesting to

710
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 2: individuals and maybe even a prediction State. TURE i THOUGHT

711
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 2: i saw VIA cnn that The president was about to.

712
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,279
Speaker 2: Speak maybe he already did AND i missed it in

713
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 2: news conference, fashion as we start what is essentially the

714
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 2: second week of the war With, iran and a lot

715
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 2: of people have, asked, well how is how are we

716
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 2: going to get out of? This you, know what's the exit? Strategy?

717
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 2: How how? What what's the way out of the? Box

718
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 2: because this thing can go so many. Ways already his

719
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 2: kind of to a large, extent perhaps had unintended, consequences

720
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:15,839
Speaker 2: concerned about oil gas, prices et, cetera widening the, conflict et.

721
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 2: Cetera AND i think it was who's the guy IN

722
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 2: cnn his name will come to me in a minute

723
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 2: THAT i watched over the weekend to say that this

724
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:32,760
Speaker 2: might be one of the occasions when The trump stream

725
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 2: of cons consciousness form of decision making might actually serve,

726
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 2: him because he, said, well he can always at any.

727
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 3: Moment he can just say we're.

728
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 2: Done it's. Over doesn't mean in a larger, sense it

729
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 2: would be in terms of the ramifications of what has

730
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 2: already been. Done but he could say, that and he's

731
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 2: capable of saying that and guess. What. REUTERS Us President

732
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 2: Donald trump thinks the war Against iran quote is very

733
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:14,799
Speaker 2: complete end. Quote and Then washington was quote very far

734
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 2: ahead end quote of his initial four to five week estimated,

735
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 2: timeframe according to A Cbs news reporter on x who

736
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 2: cited an interview with, HIM i think the war.

737
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:26,959
Speaker 3: Is very, complete pretty.

738
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 2: Much they have no, navy no, communications they got no air,

739
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 2: force The trump was quoted as saying by A Cbs

740
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 2: News White house. Correspondent trump also said THE us is

741
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 2: very far ahead of his initial four to five week

742
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 2: estimated timeframe for the.

743
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 3: War that's the prediction, HERE i, think and maybe it's

744
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 3: even going to be, today maybe a little.

745
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:54,919
Speaker 2: Longer but that wouldn't surprise me at, all because that's

746
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 2: how he. Works he, go, okay that's, Enough, OKAY i

747
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 2: got that out of my. System now About, cuba let's

748
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 2: see if we can start messing With cuba a little.

749
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,280
Speaker 2: Bit he loses, INTEREST i think to a large, degree

750
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 2: and he may well, see, well one of the what

751
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 2: are the some of the political ramifications. Here the polls

752
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 2: indicate that across the political, spectrum this isn't very popular

753
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 2: among the Hardcore trump.

754
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 3: Fans he's, okay he's Been they've been.

755
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 2: Brought, along even though this is contrary to everything he

756
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 2: said he, was you, know campaigning.

757
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,879
Speaker 3: On but he's got to worry about more than.

758
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 2: That he says he's not worried about oil, prices and

759
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,479
Speaker 2: he's not worried about gas. Prices but he often says

760
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 2: one thing and then his actions indicate something, else just

761
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 2: like the actions here in changing the momentum on The ice.

762
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 2: STORY i think ultimately had him make the change and

763
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 2: bring in your Guy holman in place of the clowns

764
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 2: who are in charge, here so that that makes sense to.

765
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 2: ME i think it may not be, today but it

766
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 2: WOULD i would not be at all stun and that

767
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 2: within the next few days he just gets has another

768
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 2: press come and said we're.

769
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,919
Speaker 3: Done we've made our. Point they.

770
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 2: Know and by the, way the open endedness probably will

771
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 2: Be israel saying you can keep naming new heads of

772
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 2: the country and we'll keep we'll keep assassinating. Them right

773
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 2: that that part of it might not go, Away AND

774
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 2: i guess that's the OTHER x factor though Where's israel in?

775
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 2: This so When trump says that's, enough Will israel go

776
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,760
Speaker 2: along with? That that that's, enough or will they continue

777
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,800
Speaker 2: to act independently even though the two sides have obviously

778
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 2: been very much in concert from the very first. Day

779
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 2: so that to me is the most likely scenario for

780
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 2: people to, say, well this is this could end up

781
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 2: being quite a. Morass how do we get out of?

782
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:51,879
Speaker 2: It he just says we're, done we need we needed

783
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 2: to do and it. Accomplished there are Other that doesn't

784
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 2: mean there aren't significant ramifications that might be beyond his.

785
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 2: Control but he can say at some point we're done

786
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 2: with what we did in terms of our, bombing and

787
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 2: now they've they've learned their, lesson and he'll say we decimated,

788
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 2: him which he has said, before and then if he has,

789
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 2: to he can go back on it again a little later.

790
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 2: On BUT i think THAT'S i said that part of

791
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 2: it IS i think that's the likely way this is

792
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 2: going to.

793
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 3: GO i think that's far more. Likely then we're.

794
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 2: Going to be in a concerted effort that goes on

795
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 2: month after month after. Month NOW i know that contradicts

796
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 2: some of the other, reporting which is we're considering troops

797
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 2: on the, ground you, know special forces kind of troops

798
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 2: for specific. Activity we got to get the uranium out of,

799
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 2: there things WHICH i don't even think is, realistic to

800
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 2: tell you the, truth and that stuff is. Contradiction but

801
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 2: that's him or people in his administration who tend to

802
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 2: throw everything out, there every possibility out. THERE i don't

803
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 2: think that necessarily means they're going to do. It SO

804
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 2: i think that's the by, far the most likely. Scenario

805
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 2: we're just. Done we're going to get a few more

806
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 2: shots in this week maybe or maybe the next several,

807
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,359
Speaker 2: days just to be, sure and then we're going to, say,

808
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 2: okay let's let's move on to Whatever cuba or the

809
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,880
Speaker 2: next country or somebody else that we're thinking. OF i

810
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,280
Speaker 2: think that's very much the way it's likely to indeed.

811
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 2: Go guessling is going to join us in thirty, minutes,

812
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: and believe it or, not not to Talk. Vikings we

813
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,879
Speaker 2: had plenty of vikings talk. Early we'll keep an eye

814
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 2: on the free agency. Tracker we've added a, corner we've

815
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 2: lost a number three wide. Receiver we've lost our. Punter

816
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 2: we liked our, punter and we did like a. Punter,

817
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 2: finally even though he was still did he ever stop

818
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,879
Speaker 2: being mad AT pa for calling him? PORTLY a good

819
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 2: question was that the term whatever the term, was he

820
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 2: was like a little bit.

821
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 3: Chunky, yeah well he was a bigger, guy big. Bones

822
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 3: he didn't like.

823
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 4: That, yeah APPARENTLY i didn't know, that but hesive very. Sensitive,

824
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 4: yeah who's to. Know we just Had Mitch berger on

825
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 4: a couple of weeks. Ago oh that's.

826
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 2: Yeah oh that's another. Thing he's probably mad at me

827
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 2: BECAUSE i forgot to tell you he'd. Asked his only

828
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 2: request after was that we send him for his kid

829
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 2: a tape all of the, conversation because he thought his

830
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,359
Speaker 2: kid would get a kick out of hearing his dam

831
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 2: in the. Radio well was that still? Doable, yeah of.

832
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,439

Speaker 2: i HAD i completely forgotten about.

834
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 4: It, well the other Thing i'm thinking of is a

835
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 4: dad who frequently has to pick their kids up or

836
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 4: drop him off at, school or try to be around

837
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 4: as much AS i, can even THOUGH i have a crazy. Schedule,

838
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 4: yes he had to. Leave he had a heart out

839
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 4: because he had to pick the kid up from, school

840
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,759
Speaker 4: if you. Remember, So i'm thinking he's trying to prove

841
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 4: himself as a father to his, kid, like, HEY i

842
