00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 2: It is the Bumper to Bumper Program The Afternoon Hardvark.

6
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 2: I am the host of the program, also known as

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 2: the A Hole in the Afternoon. Dan Barrero is my

Speaker 2: there's no U as well.

13
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: People get confused sometimes.

14
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, very much so, although by now I think you're

15
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: established enough that most people get the back to back

16
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 2: a's right. Yeah, And if they don't, I'm old enough

17
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: where I'm used to it. I don't take offense to

18
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 2: it anymore. I understand why they would make the mistake

19
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 2: that it's either like yes, the position in basketball or football,

20
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 2: or it's like the Wisconsin basketball coach with one A.

21
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 2: I get why they would make the It's understandable. I

22
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 2: have empathy for it, and sympathy. Well, you've grown. Yes,

23
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: Once upon a time, you'd have flown off the handle

24
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: back in your days, like when you were kind of

25
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 2: a junior Macenroe with your temper on the court, but

26
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 2: you grew out of them.

27
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: It's two a'sl. Yeah, that's it. That's it. You cannot

28
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: be serious.

29
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: Back in the day you ask, or Ricky Rubyo asks,

30
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 2: what do I mean by purple pivot? I don't even know.

31
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: I just like the alliterations of saying purple pivot. It

32
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 2: was either going to be purple pivot open or it

33
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: was going to be the Kyler conundrum open. Either one

34
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 2: of those, I guess the purple pivot would relate to.

35
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: Is there any possibility we're gonna have to pivot at

36
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 2: the quarterback position? Or does it continue to feel like

37
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: it's a fate a complete In a matter of minutes,

38
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 2: we will find out that Kyler Murray will be the

39
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 2: well at least a quarterback in Vikings training camp, if

40
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 2: not the quarterback coming out of Vikings training camp? Is

41
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: there any evidence to suggest otherwise?

42
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 3: Right now?

43
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: I don't see a ton. Why hasn't it been announced?

44
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: Well, they got to talk, you gotta do the physical.

45
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 2: You got to talk about terms. You got to make

46
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 2: sure it's a good match. There's a lot of.

47
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: Things that they need to wait for. I would imagine,

48
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: but I don't really.

49
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 2: Know what If we're gonna have to do a purple pivot,

50
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: are we prepared to do the pivot? We claim we are,

51
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: but not if Cousins has already gone to Vegas.

52
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: Now, that hasn't happened yet either.

53
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 2: I don't think has any have any quarterbacks landed that

54
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: are still looking for a chair in the musical Chairs

55
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 2: game as of today. I don't think today there's been

56
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: anything new, correct, not much. Yeah, Cooper Rush is available.

57
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 2: The Ravens released him. He beat us once. Remember I

58
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: went to that game, not even the last game I've

59
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 2: been to.

60
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: It was a cowboy game, right, wasn't it? Yeah? It

61
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: was a hot night game.

62
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,239
Speaker 2: I remember listening to that game when we were driving

63
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: around on a Halloween hay ride going Cooper Rush? Is

64
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: that true? The Gophers beat Cooper Rush if you recall

65
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 2: in one of the Peace Quick Claiming Bowls. That's true

66
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: when he played for Central Michigan. I think so he's available.

67
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: We could also go with the Murray Mellow drama. That's

68
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 2: decent alliteration six one two guy rights more like purple paranoia.

69
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: Oh, that's how ominous sounding.

70
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 2: That's Nolan is checking in from Jackson, Minnesota. Where's Jackson, Minnesota?

71
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 2: Jacks in Minnesota. Yes, it's like kind of down past Mancato,

72
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: like in that area, nowhere near the Dells. Nowhere near

73
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 2: the Dell's Highway sixty. I want to say, please tell

74
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: me you guys listen to PA today when he had

75
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 2: Bill Garen on and could you please react to the audio?

76
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: Is classic Billy G? Are you familiar with this? Was

77
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 2: there a Billy G meltdown?

78
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: Was it?

79
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 2: All I heard was the intro and then I got

80
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: out of the car. Oh, he was doing Box in

81
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 2: the Box. What's he doing going on that show? He's

82
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 2: in Boxing the Box. He's available.

83
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: Well, then maybe we it's time we start getting finchy on.

84
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: Let's go down the target site. Yeah, although I don't

85
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 2: know if today is the day my wellness plan, by

86
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 2: the way, is taking off. I'm like a wellness plan

87
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: influence right now. No, there's no question you won't believe

88
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 2: the messages I've gotten about this. Lori Fisher should do.

89
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 2: My wellness plan is her latest wellness plan. You just

90
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 2: steer clear of it. So you can't. You just don't

91
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 2: give yourself a chance to be aggravated by a pretty

92
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: tenacious defensive performance by the Wolves last night.

93
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 3: We gave up?

94
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: Was it one hundred and.

95
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 2: Eighty three fifty three?

96
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm sorry.

97
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 2: Felt Kawhi was on pace to break Bam out of

98
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: Baio's record. Kawhi right now is the best player in basketball.

99
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 2: I'm being serious. I'm not trying to get pst Kawhi Leonard.

100
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 2: Now this moment, he is the best, single best player

101
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 2: in the NBA.

102
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: Now, how long came lasts, I don't know, but he's healthier.

103
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 2: I heard him after I think it was that the

104
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: Clippers broadcast early this morning from last night, sounding positively buoyant.

105
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 2: You know, he's not exactly a dynamic interview, but they

106
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: got him and he was.

107
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: I mean, he was on cloud nine and sounds.

108
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 2: Like mainly because he feels this is the best his

109
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 2: body has probably felt since he won a title in Toronto.

110
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm far back. Is that five years?

111
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 2: That was?

112
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 3: What was that.

113
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: Six years?

114
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 3: Where it is?

115
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: I think it was twenty nineteen. That's standing. Uh, So

116
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: we are all on Kyler conundrum.

117
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 2: Watch, we're ready to see if the Purple will have

118
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 2: to pivot. And believe me, at any point that story

119
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: could break, and as soon as it does, we'll find

120
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: a way to react to it in real time.

121
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: Because this isn't a podcast.

122
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 2: It becomes a podcast after the show is over, but

123
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: this is a live broadcast. There's no editing that can

124
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 2: be done. It's not all we'll get to it later

125
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 2: when we're done eating. We react in what we call

126
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 2: the business live time. That's the beauty of it, right.

127
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 2: I love it that way. So if something emerges, and

128
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 2: I have not seen anything from any of the principals

129
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: who cover this team to advance the story, other than

130
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: has anybody established that he is in the Twin Cities

131
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 2: as has been speculated on I don't know if I've

132
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 2: seen that officially. I think Pelas Sero last night said

133
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 2: he was coming today. And the interesting nugget about that

134
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 2: was he talked to his agent. He said he's also

135
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 2: going to talk to like five teams about next for

136
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 2: the next year, right, yeah, which that was interesting to me. Well,

137
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 2: that's why you got to worry about the rams, I know,

138
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 2: because what if that call goes so good, he says,

139
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 2: I'll sit a here. Yeah, I don't mind. I know,

140
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 2: I'll learn on the job. I'll take it what do

141
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 2: they call it in the business, A gap year, yeah,

142
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 2: redshirt seasons exactly, and then I'll take over for you know,

143
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 2: one of the top five coaches in the National Football League.

144
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: I mean, takeover is in playing for him, right, It's

145
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 2: a great idea.

146
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: I mean, to be all honest with you. If who's

147
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: the Rams head coach, Sean McVay.

148
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 2: If Sean McVay is intrigued by Kyler Murray, that's the

149
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 2: first thing that might give me pause about my own

150
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 2: skepticism about Kyler Murray. On the other hand, he's got

151
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,679
Speaker 2: a world class quarterback already, so it's a little easier

152
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: for him to be haughty and maybe even play the

153
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 2: game of well. Somewhere down the road, we'll experiment with

154
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 2: him and maybe I can turn him into what he

155
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 2: was supposed to be when he was at number one

156
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: overall pick correct, Yeah, long time. Mavey worries me greatly.

157
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: La worries me greatly.

158
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 3: Yes.

159
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: What did Craig Kilbourne tell us about?

160
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 2: I think in early Christmas when he moved out to Hollywood,

161
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 2: and he was playing basketball in seventy five degree weather

162
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 2: on Christmas Day. What he's never going back? Yeah, that's true.

163
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 2: I'm never going back. The hills, the weather, what can

164
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 2: what else could you ask for? Well, why would you?

165
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: I mean it's hard to argue with any of that.

166
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 2: And he spent some time in northern California too, Is that?

167
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: Yes? He didn't. We talked about that.

168
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: Apparently Garren referred to me as Don Barrio or something

169
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 2: like that.

170
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: Is that true, Don Barrio? I don't know, but I

171
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: like it. It's funny.

172
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 2: I've been called worse. You can talk to him about

173
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 2: a time when he's on Enough Sick, because that's confirmed.

174
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: He's doing the entire thirty minutes of Enough said. Fox

175
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: nine got him his own seat and everything tomorrow. Yeah,

176
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 2: so we're looking forward to that. The first segment is

177
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 2: entirely devoted to an examination of Cash Ptel.

178
00:08:59,080 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: Is what I was told?

179
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 2: Cash Betel in a way, in a way you've never

180
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 2: heard of him or learned of him before. Do you

181
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 2: think he could get Patel to join us on the show?

182
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 2: Could we add another box?

183
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 3: Well?

184
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then we got to worry about people boycotting.

185
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 2: Is that worth it. Half the audience will want to boycott,

186
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: the other half will be delighted, probably more than half. Yeah,

187
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: you probably want that, but yeah, maybe I don't know. Yeah,

188
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 2: to be a heck of a way to go out.

189
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 2: Rosen said on the program that Kyler is currently a

190
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: t c O. Is he reporting that or is he

191
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 2: just speculating on it. I need I need reporting. I

192
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 2: need somebody who's reporting it. Yeah, I mist I don't

193
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: know how. The only part of comment today I heard

194
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 2: with Rosen was more colonoscopy talk right at the top,

195
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 2: and then I had some other things to do.

196
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 1: Okay, I missed that part.

197
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 2: Well, we'll we'll, we'll get to the bottom of it,

198
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 2: and if we get anything confirmed, we'll let you know.

199
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,079
Speaker 1: Did anybody track the plane? I don't think so. There wasn't,

200
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: So there's not as much buzz.

201
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 2: It's fair to say, I don't Murray watch like you

202
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: were like there was with farv No, which I would

203
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 2: think is good. Yeah, I think it's a sign of perspective.

204
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 2: On the other hand, this is now so you say, well,

205
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,679
Speaker 2: I mean in a lot of ways, we are and

206
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 2: people are still interested whatever they think about that particular decision.

207
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: All Right, let's you mentioned Craig Kilbourne. He's going to

208
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 2: join us next and we'll find out if he attended

209
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 2: either of the Wolves debacles in sunny southern California, where

210
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 2: of course he indeed resides. We'll get his view on

211
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray and I have been told before we wrap

212
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 2: up with Kilbourne, he is going to reveal for the

213
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 2: first time around the world a significant, a major Craig

214
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 2: Kilbourne announcement. Really, I don't want to oversell it and

215
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 2: tell you he's returning to Late Night because I don't

216
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 2: think that's the case, but it's big and it's been

217
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,200
Speaker 2: off the record until he makes it on the record

218
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 2: on our program. Bradshaw, Brian Kafe in text line is

219
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 2: open at six four six eighty six quick pause and

220
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 2: then mister Kilbourn, and then I'll give you the rest

221
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 2: of the We call it the uglydeck dot Com guest lineup.

222
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 2: It's outstanding today. In fact, we may have just added

223
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:51,839
Speaker 2: an extra guest s outstanding a guest lineup today. Theuglydeck

224
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 2: dot Com guest lineup will include at five thirty well,

225
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 2: doctor Dan's inbox. I guess you could say technically the

226
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 2: listeners are the guests. They provide the material called by

227
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 2: the producer of the broadcast. That's at five point thirty.

228
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 2: Russo Radio is scheduled for five point fifteen. If we

229
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 2: go a little long, maybe we push the inbox back

230
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: a bit. And we just added the redoubtable baseball writer

231
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: extraordinaire Kevin kernan longtime tabloid baseball writer.

232
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,479
Speaker 1: He's going to join us at four point thirty.

233
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 2: To talk about the World Baseball Classic and the near miss.

234
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 2: Although the US is now in the quarterfinals, they got

235
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 2: some help apparently last night, which I think we can

236
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 2: all sleep easier for that reason. The question is whether

237
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: our next guest slept at all last night, given that,

238
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 2: for the second consecutive night in his southern California, his

239
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: favorite basketball team spit the bit we're not really a factor.

240
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 2: Craig Kilbourne, have you slept or did you spend last

241
00:12:55,120 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 2: night after the Clippers debacle tossing and turning?

242
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 4: Well, great to hear your voice, Dan Back. I hope,

243
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 4: I hope you don't pass too much judgment on me.

244
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 4: The score was twelve to ten and I turned it off.

245
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: Wow, Now, what's that all about?

246
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 3: It?

247
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 4: It's an art form and I checked the score. We

248
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: I think we cut it to three or five at

249
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 4: one point, now I think nine at halftime. I'm fond

250
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 4: of using the word debacle, and it was a debacle.

251
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 4: And they're playing poorly right now. They're playing poorly right now.

252
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: Are you? Do you? You know?

253
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: One of the theories is we tend, those of us

254
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 2: who live and die with pro basketball, tend to overreact

255
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 2: on the good end and the bad end to a

256
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 2: team that, after all, did make it to the conference

257
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 2: finals the last two years, and that we need to

258
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 2: stop hyperventilating and let this thing play out. And I

259
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: guess to a certain extent, trust in Finchy, trust in

260
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards, and trust in the process. Is that where

261
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 2: you are? Or are you a little bit more concerned

262
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: than that? Well?

263
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 4: I'm always concerned with the turnovers because I don't think

264
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 4: some of the ballplayers are fundamentally sound when it comes

265
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 4: to passing and ball handling, and I loathe turnovers. I'm

266
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 4: a purist. I would like to say something to the

267
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 4: fans about Chris Finch. I'm a Chris Finch fan. Yes,

268
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 4: And we had a losing streak a while back of

269
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 4: five games where we were dispirited. I didn't look good

270
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 4: and everyone it's easy to blame the coach. And this

271
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 4: is my response. There are two things with the coach.

272
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 4: Chuck Day once said, eventually the players get tired of

273
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 4: hearing your voice. We're not there yet, We're not close

274
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 4: to that. Finch, he's the man. He's doing a good

275
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 4: job when the team is struggling. What would Michael Jordan do?

276
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 4: What would Magic Johnson do? He would talk to his

277
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 4: teammates and get them fired up. He would discipline them.

278
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 4: I hate this, say it Dan. It all falls on

279
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 4: the best player, Anthony Edwards. Interesting, he's a great player.

280
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 4: He's got to cut down the turnovers. I don't know

281
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:14,239
Speaker 4: if he's capable of leading the way a Magic or Jordan.

282
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: Again, and Jordan was different. Jordan was hard on his teammates.

283
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 3: He wouldn't call cruel will Purdue, will Purdue. He called

284
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 3: them will Vanderbilt. You know he was tough on those.

285
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: Yes he was, but sacked.

286
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: He smacked who's the Golden State head? Because Steve Kerr

287
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 2: in the face during practice?

288
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: You apologize?

289
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 2: He did eventually, like I think five years later, he apologized.

290
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 4: Nothing zen about that Jackson, but so it's a lot

291
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 4: of it's on ant and I sadly had to go

292
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 4: to the Laker game because some friend of mine had

293
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 4: a suite with a private bartender a night to go.

294
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 4: And for some reason I've been ordering vespers instead of vodka. Martiniz.

295
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 4: Some people might know what a vesper is. Invented by

296
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 4: Fleming and the book Casino Royale came a movie half vodka,

297
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 4: half jin and Lillot Klay or some some kind of

298
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 4: I don't know what it's called, some French wine that's

299
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 4: in there, so AnyWho, it's a rough patch. I would

300
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 4: like to say Dan, A lot of us are fired

301
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:23,479
Speaker 4: up about Io Desumu, and I really really enjoyed that acquisition.

302
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 4: And I said, we need a guard. He's not a

303
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 4: true point guard, but doesn't turn it over too much.

304
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 4: Good defender shoots threes. I didn't know he was that fast.

305
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 4: And I said, we don't need Kobe White, we don't

306
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 4: need We just need a really good ballplayer. We were

307
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 4: talking about getting Colin Sexton Colin Gillespie from the Suns,

308
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 4: and when we traded him, I read some tweets from

309
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 4: Chicago fans and they were upset that Io wasn't there,

310
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 4: including a tweet from David Axelrod, who's from Chicago, and

311
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 4: he said, Hey, Timberwolves fans, you just got a good one.

312
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 4: He's a local guy from Chicago.

313
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 3: We're gonna miss him Rod.

314
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 2: Now, well, for right now, fifty percent of our audience

315
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 2: is annoyed with you. Well you know how that works,

316
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 2: axel Rod. Of course you quote you quote a democratic handler.

317
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 2: Of course you would, you know, even though there's nothing.

318
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 3: To Churchill would like Desumo as well.

319
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 2: I'm with you on that, But let me let me

320
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 2: stop you for a second here. Yes, sir, I'm wondering

321
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 2: if very subtly you're calling out Johnny Athletic a little bit,

322
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 2: because in his most recent piece, Johnny Athletic did devote

323
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 2: a couple of pretty pithy, direct challenging paragraphs regarding the

324
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:44,199
Speaker 2: head coach, saying that at some point, on the basis

325
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 2: of these horrible starts, he's got to take some responsibility

326
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: for the team starting as badly as it did. And

327
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 2: I'm not saying he called for his head, but I'm

328
00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 2: wondering if was that your subtle attempt to need or

329
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:05,360
Speaker 2: to counter Johnny devoting a little bit of time on

330
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 2: the head coach too.

331
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 3: Falls on Pablo Priggioni.

332
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: John.

333
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 4: First of all, it's kind of a microcosm of John's writing.

334
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 3: Now.

335
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 4: I don't know if you know this, Dan, but Johnny

336
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 4: Athletic and I have a running joke and it started

337
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 4: last year when we were playing Wolves, playing at Milwaukee,

338
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 4: twenty five point lead, Bucks go into a zone in

339
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 4: the fourth, we lose, and his first question to finish

340
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 4: is this a microcosm of the season. So I said, Johnny,

341
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 4: don't do the microsm and then she goes, we had

342
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 4: a bad fourth quarter against a zone.

343
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: It's not a microcosm.

344
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 3: Yes, whatever, there's a where there's a bad play we

345
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 3: text each other during the game. Microcosm.

346
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: That's pretty good.

347
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:54,479
Speaker 2: Well, I look, I think there's a place for everybody

348
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 2: to take some of the responsibility.

349
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: But I will add this.

350
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 2: You left out one item that I want us to explore.

351
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 3: I have.

352
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 2: From the moment Julius Randall got here. I have been

353
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 2: all over the board on him. I have gone from

354
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 2: rolling my eyes at him and saying it's never gonna

355
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,479
Speaker 2: work if he's your second best player.

356
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: Two, I got he.

357
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 2: Maybe he's got another gear after all, Maybe this is

358
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 2: the perfect place Finch. He has good relationship with him,

359
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 2: Maybe he's gonna get something out of him consistently that

360
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 2: others don't. And I'm still in that place where I

361
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 2: change my mind every day. And he's not in a

362
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 2: good frame offensively right now. And you know what that means,

363
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 2: Gregor's that means he's not in a good place defensively

364
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 2: because if his offense isn't gone, he ain't garden.

365
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's mercurial, he's inconsistent and streaky.

366
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 3: I guess, you know, I heard someone tell.

367
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 4: Me that a Rod is you know, he's kind of

368
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 4: like ready for the postseason, for the postseason. And I'm

369
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,439
Speaker 4: ready for the postseason. I want to see how we

370
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 4: how we play. But I just I remember a few

371
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 4: I don't know, a week or so ago, we moved

372
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 4: up in the third place. Now again it's separated by

373
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 4: a game, right, And I was, and I looked at

374
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 4: the Rockets schedule, and then I looked at which wasn't terrible.

375
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 4: Then I looked at Ours and I go, oh, I mean,

376
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 4: we haven't even played Detroit. We're gonna play him twice,

377
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 4: I mean, and and we just completely blew it in

378
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 4: the La trip.

379
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 3: So I don't.

380
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 4: I honestly don't know what's going to happen. I'm prepared

381
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 4: for anything. But I do like our team. I just

382
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 4: don't understand it.

383
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 3: And I don't know. If you saw the first two

384
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,360
Speaker 3: minutes that I saw before I turned it.

385
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: Out, I did not. Was it like five straight turnovers?

386
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 3: Yeah? All they do.

387
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm telling you.

388
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 4: If I was opposing coach, I would just say pressure.

389
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 4: These guys, pressure the ball and the perimeter. They don't panic.

390
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 4: So it's frustrating. But I still think.

391
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 3: I mean, we're good, but yeah, we're a weird team.

392
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: That's a good way to put it. It's very true.

393
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: It is a weird team.

394
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 2: And as you know as a basketball purist, they're continuing

395
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 2: to try to make it work without a point guard.

396
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 2: You know, they've said, all right, we think Mike Conley's

397
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 2: too long in the tooth. We don't really the guy

398
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,640
Speaker 2: we sort of projected to be. That guy didn't work out.

399
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 2: We had to move him in the trade for iOS.

400
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 2: So we're not left with much other than saying to Anthony,

401
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 2: it's a lot to put on your plate, but you've

402
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 2: got to be one of those scoring point guards.

403
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 1: And pretty much be in charge of everything.

404
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 2: And to your point about the pressure, I think that's

405
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 2: potentially going to make them vulnerable, maybe even more vulnerable

406
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 2: than they've been in the postseason, because that's the right

407
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 2: scouting report. You're right overplay pressure them because this team

408
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 2: will turn the ball over because none of those guys

409
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 2: are you know, several of them can handle the ball,

410
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 2: but there none of them are really guys who are

411
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 2: accustomed to that or that that really is you know,

412
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 2: their greatest strength.

413
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's uh. I don't know how you teach these

414
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 4: guys to handle the ball. I think we had fifteen

415
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:10,719
Speaker 4: turnovers at halftime.

416
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 3: I'm looking at the stat.

417
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 1: That's that's absurd.

418
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 4: By the way, and we only had six in the

419
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 4: second half, so we only had twenty one for the games.

420
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that didn't work. And by the way, so

421
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 2: you I need help from the audience. You might not

422
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 2: know details on this any more than the rest of

423
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 2: us because I didn't stay up for it. What was

424
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 2: the fracas about after the game. It seemed curious and

425
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 2: kind of bizarre, do you know.

426
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 4: No, I saw the headline and watch the video. They

427
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 4: were showing joe Ingalls shaking hands with Kawhi Leonard Qui goes, oh,

428
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 4: there's a fight, and then Joe went there to get

429
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 4: to mix it up.

430
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 3: But they said something about the game ball. The game ball.

431
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, somebody wanted a game ball. Did someone hit a

432
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 4: shot to Darius Garland? Somebody wanted to give it him.

433
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 3: I have no.

434
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 4: Clue from the category. I'm not I'm not that interested.

435
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 4: I'm just upset we lost the game. Where was that

436
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 4: fight during the game, Guys.

437
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:07,360
Speaker 1: There's there's a cliche.

438
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 2: By the way, did you stay for the whole Lakers

439
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 2: game despite the embarrassing nature of our performance?

440
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, I barely watched. There were a bunch of friends

441
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 4: up there. We were goofing.

442
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: Off any big names that we would recognize, Yeah, no,

443
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 2: any Hollywood stars in the suite.

444
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 4: There was a lady that you probably wouldn't know. She

445
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 4: was an actress on psych and now she's on a

446
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 4: Donnie Wahlberg show on CBS named Maggie Lawson. Okay, and

447
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 4: she's been on my podcast, The Life Gorgeous, And she's

448
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:39,360
Speaker 4: a nice lady, and she was there. The weirdest thing

449
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 4: was after the game, we stayed in this suite for

450
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 4: a while and then it was time to get out

451
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 4: of there. So it's right next to the Ritz Carlton

452
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 4: the Crypto dot Com. And I walked, I'm not going

453
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,119
Speaker 4: to get an uber back right outside the Crypto dot Com.

454
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 4: Someone said, just walk over to the Ritz and then

455
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 4: and get into Uber. So I walked over there, and

456
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 4: they're these fans and these two this couple, young couple

457
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 4: from Australia, they came all the way to see Aunt

458
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 4: and Uh, they were there outside they and they weren't

459
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 4: waiting for an uber. They were just waiting because the

460
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 4: wolves were staying there.

461
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 3: I didn't know that.

462
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 4: And all of a sudden, Rocko's a Jaikarski or whatever,

463
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 4: the guy from Australia. He starts striding into the UH

464
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 4: to the hotel and they go ro Rocco and they

465
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 4: took a picture with him. So then I took a

466
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 4: picture with him and I just posted it on my

467
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 4: Instagram stories today. And then Jade McDaniels showed so I

468
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 4: took a picture with him and I smiled and he didn't.

469
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 4: And the music I used for my Instagram with him

470
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 4: was that King Cole Smile, the Charlie Chaplin song.

471
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: Oh nice song, yeah, good throwback?

472
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 2: Yeah did you have lunch with any Wolves dignitaries and

473
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 2: or Johnny Athletic because he's of course out there too,

474
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:54,400
Speaker 2: or has.

475
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,439
Speaker 4: No he he did. He did text me before the

476
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 4: game and say will you be there? And I'll say, yeah,

477
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 4: I'm here, I'm up. I'm way up high in the suite.

478
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and uh, I just it's just terrible, not familiar.

479
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 3: We shot, but it was bad. We could we could

480
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 3: be bad.

481
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: Dan, Yeah, we can, that's true.

482
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 2: I don't remember. Who do we play next? We stand

483
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 2: on the Warriors? Oh yeah, the World State? That's right,

484
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 2: Golden State. And Steph hasn't played in like three years,

485
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: has he? I don't even know what are they trying to?

486
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 2: Are they trying to miss the playoffs?

487
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 3: Now?

488
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: They just given up given the buckets. You know, Jimmy

489
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: Butler's unavailable.

490
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 3: They traded for Perzingis.

491
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: And he hasn't played. I don't think has he.

492
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:32,959
Speaker 3: He's played a little bit.

493
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 1: The most violated hippo laws.

494
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 2: In one of his press conferences, and do you speculating

495
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 2: about his illness and why he wasn't playing him apologize?

496
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 3: He did?

497
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, kurs two open sometimes where are you on? Kirk?

498
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,159
Speaker 2: Because you know Kerr got hammered by your guy stephen

499
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 2: A for suggesting that if you really want to deal with,

500
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 2: you know, the some of the issues, load management, tanking,

501
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 2: et cetera, you go to fewer games. Because he he's

502
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 2: a believer. There are a lot of people who believe this,

503
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 2: that the pace of the game is such that the

504
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 2: stress on the bodies, the heart, the head of players physically,

505
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 2: not to mention mentally is like never before. The old timers,

506
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 2: many of them chafe at this, but that's what a

507
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 2: lot of the that's what he says. And he got

508
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 2: ripped because you know, he smif did the old wat

509
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 2: and see you guys, you're gonna get some money back.

510
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 2: And Kurse said, hey, look, I'm not an idiot. I

511
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 2: get what you're saying here. I'm just telling you, watching

512
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 2: this stuff, I think whether we want to accept it

513
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 2: or not, and knowing we probably won't that if I

514
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 2: was in charge and I could wave a magic wand

515
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 2: I'd say let's go to I don't know if he

516
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 2: said seventy two or sixty five games something like that,

517
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 2: what'd you make of all that? Well?

518
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 3: I wasn't up on all that.

519
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 4: I have heard other people propose seventy two games, and

520
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 4: I think it would help.

521
00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 3: The season is long. I agree it will change obviously

522
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:05,439
Speaker 3: statistics and everything, but all time statistics.

523
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 4: But so the three pointer. But I would go seventy

524
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 4: two games. And I do believe that the coaches whose

525
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 4: jobs are on the line and they make more money now,

526
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 4: I do believe they play more defense, more a little

527
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 4: harder on defense than they did back in the day.

528
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 4: And you know that Laker team, the Showtime Lakers eighty

529
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 4: seven when they won a few times, but that for

530
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 4: the regular season, the entire team shot fifty two. So

531
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,920
Speaker 4: I just don't think the defense was quite as intense.

532
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 2: You know, well it was Kareem was still playing then

533
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 2: towards the end, right, Yeah, yeah, well that was part

534
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 2: of it. He was always had a good percentage that

535
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 2: that didn't hurt. Let Craigers know this from CJ Minneapolis

536
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 2: that hearing Lea by on Olsada has brought on his

537
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 2: podcast this week was a great get.

538
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: She is a gem. Can you confirm?

539
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, she's an lady. It took a long time to

540
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 4: get her on a lot of these people.

541
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 3: You got to go through channel representation and channels and no,

542
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 3: I'm kidding.

543
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: She's great.

544
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 4: I actually I've known her a long time and she

545
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 4: said something. She did not remember this, but it made

546
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 4: me laugh. I tell I said, you know, I quote

547
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 4: you when I had the invite to the training camp

548
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 4: back in two thousand and four, and I was forty

549
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 4: two years old, and I pulled my back trying to

550
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 4: get in shape for this camp. I played in a

551
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 4: little scrimmage and some practice and she interviewed me, and

552
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 4: I said, how did it look?

553
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 3: And she said it looked like.

554
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 4: You used to play, which I thought was very funny.

555
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 4: It looked like you used to play. And she does

556
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 4: not remember saying that, And I said, no, it was funny.

557
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,719
Speaker 3: Remember that very effective. Yeah, by the way, did I

558
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 3: mention to you?

559
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 4: I I have a big announcement later. We're going to

560
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 4: get to that show. You have such a packed show.

561
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 4: I don't know what's going to happen.

562
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 2: We'll figure it. We'll squeeze her in point no question.

563
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 2: But what I was going to say is this is

564
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 2: how far back I go with Leaby Olsen. When I

565
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 2: first got to town, a writer who I don't know

566
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 2: if you ever met, Bob Sanzevir, who were then covered

567
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 2: the Vikings when I first got to town. He's still

568
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 2: here doing some stuff. He was a very generous guy

569
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 2: where in terms of you know, because I didn't know

570
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 2: hardly anybody here hang out, you know, go to places,

571
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 2: hang out at his place. He had a place in Uptown,

572
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 2: a fashionable town home in Uptown, and he would hold

573
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 2: these massive parties which would also include like playing volleyball.

574
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 2: There was a volleyball net set up sort of outside

575
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 2: the area.

576
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: I can't remember the name of the development. I don't

577
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: even if it's still there.

578
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 2: And so yeah, we'd all that's what we do, all

579
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 2: do volley But lea b me.

580
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of us who were there. That's how

581
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: far back I go.

582
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: So we're talking there, like the mid eighties, nineteen eighties,

583
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 2: a long time, well actually late it the eighties, I

584
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 2: guess it would be, if not if a little after that.

585
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 2: So yeah, she is, she's very good, does a great

586
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 2: job on the air, and you know, it's been around

587
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 2: for a very long time. So I'm glad that went well.

588
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 2: Is there anything else Wolves wide or league wide that

589
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 2: Craig Kilbourne has been itching to get into. I mean,

590
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 2: do you want to weigh in on irresponsible tanking. Do

591
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 2: you want to weigh in on I am curious to

592
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 2: know where you are on what I think? Is this

593
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 2: nonsense that that Io's obligation the other day was to

594
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 2: stop before he got to Kobe Bryant's eighty one points.

595
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 2: I find that insulting and absurd. Whatever I might think

596
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 2: of how he ended up with a total number of

597
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 2: points that he got because it was goofy with all

598
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 2: the free throws, But I'm curious to get if you

599
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 2: have any views on all of that discussion.

600
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 4: Well, I think it's kind of weird and odd and

601
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 4: silly that Bam is the guy.

602
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 3: That scored eighty three.

603
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 4: It's like, I mean, it is Kat could do that

604
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 4: if you want to feed him, I guess, but he's

605
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 4: a more talented offensive player, and it's like that time,

606
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 4: what's more unlikely Bam out of Bio or Corey Brewer.

607
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 3: Scoring fifty or fifty one? Whatever? He asked?

608
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: Good question, But.

609
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 4: I wasn't a Kobe fan. I didn't like his shot selection.

610
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 4: I understand people like the killer instinct in the competitive nature,

611
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 4: and he goes out he scores eighty one.

612
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 3: It's pretty cool. I don't know.

613
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 4: I look at it where I'm older now, I watch

614
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 4: so many NBA games, mostly the Wolves, that some of

615
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 4: that stuff doesn't register. What I think is I always

616
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 4: look at is there a dominant team or are there

617
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 4: a bunch of.

618
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 3: Good teams that we can play with anyone?

619
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 4: And so I think about more, you know, can we

620
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 4: get past can we get to the Western Conference finals?

621
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 3: And can we get passed it this year?

622
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 4: And you know, I thought OKC was really tough, and

623
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 4: I still think in the seven game series it'd have

624
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,959
Speaker 4: to be favored. But we can play with them, and

625
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 4: I think we can play with the Spurs. So I'm

626
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 4: really curious to see how we do in the playoffs.

627
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 4: And it's I almost feel like the Wolves are looking

628
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 4: forward to the playoffs too, and not concentrating on each

629
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 4: game right.

630
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 2: Now, That's the question that's it us Sam as it

631
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 2: pronounced I think it's pronounced amic from the Athletic on Kobe.

632
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 2: Maybe this reaction is rooted in nostalgia for Bryant's story

633
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 2: night against Toronto in Los Angeles on Jan twenty two,

634
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 2: two thousand and six, or the even deeper reflection that

635
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 2: comes because of his tragic passing fourteen years after that game.

636
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: By virtue of human nature.

637
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 2: His death puts greater weight on every one of his

638
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 2: most cherished feats and creates a sense that they should

639
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 2: be handled with a certain kind of care. And he writes,

640
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 2: judging by the reactions some of the people from Bryant's

641
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 2: passed who I was in touch with after out of

642
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 2: Bio's outing the this sentiment was not unique. Again, couldn't

643
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 2: disagree with that more. That's not anybody's obligation. It's a

644
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 2: terrible tragedy. Obviously we all know what that story is

645
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 2: and what he the whole Mama mentality represented, But this

646
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 2: this no, it's to me, it's patronizing. It. No one's

647
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 2: going to forget about Kobe Bryant on the basis of

648
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 2: out of Bayou, you know, ending up getting in an

649
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 2: odd sort of set of circumstances, confluence of events, more

650
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 2: points than him, And I don't even think he'd go

651
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 2: for it, to be honest with you, I just think

652
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 2: the whole thing is silly. It's it's almost bordering on

653
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 2: the religious. And he's not a deity, you know. It

654
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 2: just doesn't make sense to.

655
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 4: Me if it was if it had been Kawhi Leonard,

656
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 4: who broke the record. Yeah, Kobe's record or Kevin Durant,

657
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 4: it would have been received much better. But the I

658
00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 4: of the bam is is just such a just out

659
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 4: of nowhere and no question, that's that's kind of irritating.

660
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 4: You know, I'm not gonna harp on you. I think

661
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 4: you know where I stand on Kobe. I I was

662
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 4: on your show with Dave Mcmanhaman and he was he

663
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 4: was the guy he has understood that the lebron is

664
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 4: better than Kobe, because not everybody in LA believes that,

665
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 4: right and and he and he was the one that said,

666
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 4: well what about against Tim Duncan. So he was looking

667
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,240
Speaker 4: for an advantage because he thinks Kobe's better than Duncan.

668
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,919
Speaker 4: And both you and I and others have said, no,

669
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 4: it's it's Tim Duncan. But Kobe, he has his fans

670
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 4: are definitely fanatical. They really love him. I told you

671
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,280
Speaker 4: I went to Musso and Frank.

672
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 3: I didn't.

673
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 4: I don't do this anymore because Kobe has passed tragically,

674
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:47,720
Speaker 4: passed early.

675
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 3: So I don't.

676
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 4: I don't do this, but I would just I would

677
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 4: just be so entertained. And I went to Musso and

678
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 4: Frank I got Martine at the bar and I said

679
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 4: to the bartenders, who's better, Kobe or Lebron And they

680
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 4: said Kobe and I said, no, it's Lebron and they

681
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 4: mockingly took my drink away.

682
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, yeah, well, some of that I get

683
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 2: because it's out there. And then, as I said, it

684
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 2: adds another layer unfortunately when he dies the way that

685
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,359
Speaker 2: he did as well. All right, here's what I want

686
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 2: to do. I want to get a break in and

687
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,840
Speaker 2: then I want to talk a little more NBA. Definitely

688
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 2: get to I need you to weigh in on Kyler

689
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 2: murray Mania, and then we'll get to your big announcement

690
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 2: as well. We've got a lot of ground to cover

691
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 2: with Craig Kilbourne checking in for the first time in

692
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 2: quite some time.

693
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 1: Pause. Now back in.

694
00:35:36,960 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 5: There, Mark Kilbourne is indeed back with us.

695
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 2: A big announcement coming and a close circuit to I

696
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 2: think it's six one two guy, It's not podcast related.

697
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,359
Speaker 2: See people make these assumptions Craig Kilbourne that they know

698
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 2: must be another podcast announcement. No, this is not a

699
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 2: podcast related much bigger compared to Yeah. I mean, everybody's

700
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:25,720
Speaker 2: got a podcast. Everybody in the world has a podcast

701
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,839
Speaker 2: except me, So it's not that big of a deal

702
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 2: at this point. Let me introduce to Kyler conundrum with

703
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 2: this text. This is from ups guy Uh checking in

704
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 2: for the first time in years. Kyler is like a

705
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:42,359
Speaker 2: kid who needs a strict dad to get slash, keep

706
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 2: him in line and on track. Koc is more like

707
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 2: the dad that doesn't punish his kid when deserved. My

708
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 2: hopes are not high. If indeed this is the signing.

709
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 2: It's an interesting observation.

710
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 3: Uh.

711
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 2: But you know, it seems to almost to assume what

712
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 2: everybody's assuming here among the jackals, the media jackals, that

713
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 2: he's here right now, Kyler Murray, and that it's inevitable

714
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 2: that the Vikings are going to sign him. Will you

715
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 2: celebrate that signing or will you be skeptical of it?

716
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 4: Initially skeptical? I'm going to hit you with a few

717
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 4: different thoughts here quickly. Just on the record, I've said

718
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 4: it before. I'm an Aaron Rodgers fan. Aaron Rodgers I

719
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,800
Speaker 4: wanted him last year on the Vikings along with Dan Marino,

720
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 4: the prettiest football ever thrown in the NFL. If he's

721
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 4: at seventy percent of what he used to be, he's

722
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:34,839
Speaker 4: still pretty damn good.

723
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:35,720
Speaker 1: I agree.

724
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 4: I also want to just tell you my issue with Koc,

725
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 4: and then I'll talk about Kyler Murray and I won't

726
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 4: use the word smurf, which I've seen people tweet about it.

727
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 4: I don't like that that's mocking his diminutive size.

728
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 2: By the way, who hast who has a better BMI?

729
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 2: Koc or Craig Kilbourne.

730
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 3: I can't remember what a BMI is. What is that against?

731
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 2: It's something is boom asking, like you know, the like

732
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 2: perfectly sculpted, muscular skinny.

733
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

734
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,240
Speaker 3: So I'm I'm a I can't remember what am I.

735
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 3: I think I'm an ecdo morph. He's a mesomorph. He's

736
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 3: more muscular. I saw him. I did not introduce myself.

737
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 4: I saw him at the Lexus Club in the Wolves game,

738
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 4: where we're both six'. Five he's got at least twenty

739
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 4: five pounds on. Me he's a he's a bigger.

740

745
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 4: i could be. Wrong maybe he's only two, ten but he's.

746
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 4: Strong and my my problem With. KOC i know we've

00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,360
Speaker 4: twelve fifteen plays down for. Touchdown you gotta have some,

755
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 4: big chunk. Plays And i'm, saying, fine but don't run

756
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 4: them all the. Time pick and choose when you're gonna

757
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 4: have these long developing routes when you have a suspect

758
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 4: or even a solid offensive. Line SO i Need koc

759
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,520

Speaker 4: UH i think he might be a decent. Pro AND

810
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 4: i sometimes, say, like, hey Rich gannon played for us

811
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 4: and then he left and became an m V. P

812
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 4: he might play well for somebody, else BUT i would keep.

813
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 3: Him AND i still think he might be might be pretty.

814
00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 3: Good you still think he's got a, Chance, yeah but

815
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 3: don't want him starting this coming.

816
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 1: Season so if you Bring kyler, in you're not bringing

817
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:52,200
Speaker 1: him into.

818
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 4: Compete, no AND i and my understanding Is kyler probably

819
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 4: won't come.

820
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 3: Here and if he's going to come here to, compete

821
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 3: that's my.

822
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 2: Understanding, yeah well he in a perfect, WORLD i think

823
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 2: he should have to. Compete but maybe that's BECAUSE i

824
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 2: don't know how many other teams are. Left to be,

825
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: HONEST i don't know how many other because it sounds

826
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 2: like the other options are all where he would do

827
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 2: the gap year and for, example go to The rams

828
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:22,640

00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 2: today but maybe not because he's talking to these other

860
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 2: teams at least by. Zoom but we THINK i think

861
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 2: most people are saying that he has spent the day AT. Tco, now,

862
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 2: remember once upon a, Time Jim harbaughs spent the day AT.

00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,839
Speaker 2: Tco and he left without a job he. Did, yeah

Speaker 4: In bowl number one. Champions you think those guys would

868

Speaker 2: really happened.

877
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: MUCH i think once they've gotten to the post.

878
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,919
Speaker 3: Justin herbert to frustrate in the. PLAYOFFS i think that's

879
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 3: what it.

880
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,000
Speaker 1: Is, yeah that makes there's some that makes some. Sense

881
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:37,760
Speaker 1: so you're.

882
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:40,880

00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,399
Speaker 2: want which Is, rogers you'd rather Have kyler than let's,

884
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 2: Say Kirk cousins or who's the Former Derek carr The

885
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:49,880
Speaker 2: raiders And.

886
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,399
Speaker 3: Saints, OH i wanted to ask.

887
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,760
Speaker 4: YOU i always, assumed because you guys are so well, rounded,

888
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 4: uh that you watch more football THAN i.

889
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 3: Do And i've al he Liked Derek.

890
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 4: CARR i always liked the way he, moved AND i

891
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 4: thought HE i think he's a bit of a.

892
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 3: Gun, slinger isn't? He and he Has, Yeah so what

893
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:13,280
Speaker 3: do you think of? HIM i like, Him, Well i'll

894
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 3: put this.

895
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 2: WAY i always was intrigued with, him but THEN i

896
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 2: never FELT i got the PAYOFF i expected he. Represented

897
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 2: so you're back to the same thing With. Kyler you could,

898
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:27,359
Speaker 2: say is that a function of he's not as good

899
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 2: AS i? Thought or is that a function of that

900
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:33,799
Speaker 2: infrastructure around? Him that's always the, question right is which is?

901
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: IT i don't.

902
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 2: KNOW i, here, look if they Bring kyler, in, obviously

903
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,359
Speaker 2: now you got, it it's got to be a clean

904
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 2: slate at that. POINT i JUST i don't. Know he

905
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,399
Speaker 2: strikes me as all those. Guys the more you see,

906
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 2: him the more you get exasperated by. Him and so

907
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,399
Speaker 2: in other, words he can make some plays you, Go,

908
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,839
Speaker 2: god that was, good but then there's these six straight other,

909
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 2: plays less, spectacular where you just wanted to be. Quarterback

910
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 2: he just wanted to make the right, play and he

911
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 2: doesn't always do.

912
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,040
Speaker 1: It SO i don't.

913
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 2: KNOW i, mean is he better at this point THAN? Jj,

914
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 2: yeah you are probably better than THAN. J. J. McCarthy

915
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 2: at this moment at the quarterback. Position but there's a

916
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,319
Speaker 2: part of me that, says, well if that's IF i.

917
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,359
Speaker 3: Admit checked, Down i'm just gonna check. Down i'm gonna check.

918
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:20,840
Speaker 1: Down that's the rid of the.

919
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 3: Ball that's.

920
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 2: LEGAL I i'm pouting probably too much about a ROG

921
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 2: i probably AM I I and even though again statistically

922
00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 2: he was not that much better Than. Kyler kyler only

923
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 2: played five games where he got hurt this time and

924
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 2: then he got. Benched but it wasn't like a roj

925
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 2: was statistically, wonderful you.

926
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:46,080
