This is something I left out with with 255 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: not knowing what a Google doc is and how saving 256 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: works and everything is with Brosmer. Okay, so McCarthy at 257 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: times he's a kid. At a time he's twenty two. 258 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: Brozmer's a little older. McCarthy at times won't see it 259 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: quickly enough. And in the Packers game there was a 260 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: pass to Josh Oliver left flat by the sideline that 261 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: if it's just a few beats earlier, then Josh Oliver 262 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: is probably. 263 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 2: Rolling down the sideline from here to w Wassaw. 264 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 1: So you know, kids are going to be kids and 265 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: experience is required, so you know, Max not Max JJ 266 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: occasionally will see it too slowly. 267 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: Well. 268 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: The analyst Pete Bersich, A's brilliant b he's Notre Dame raised, 269 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: and see he knows what he's looking for because he 270 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 1: coached and or played for a decade and change in 271 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: the NFL. Early in the broadcast yesterday, like after the 272 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: second or third pass, he's like, this is crazy. 273 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,319 Speaker 2: Brozmers seeing it too quickly. 274 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: It's like the processing machine was going so fast that 275 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: he's he just now he needs to slow down a 276 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,319 Speaker 1: beat kids at a time, and he's just seeing it 277 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 1: too quickly. And I'm like, all right, you know, I'm 278 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: not going to argue with the analyst. He knows more 279 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: about it than me. Postgame press conference, Kevin O'Connell asked 280 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: about Brosmer pretty much said the same thing was just 281 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: processing so quickly. It was actually seeing it too quickly, 282 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: needed and needed to like pull back a little bit. 283 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 2: It's these kids. 284 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 3: I'm just telling you, Yeah, I mean, I mean give 285 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 3: him credit for for what he's done. I think PJ 286 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 3: talks enough about him. And Greg Olsen was highlighting it 287 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 3: on the on the screen too, about his relationship with 288 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 3: PJ and the positive things that PJ says about him, 289 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: and how he just came in and was just this 290 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,559 Speaker 3: leader and he understands the game at such a high level. 291 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 3: And yeah, I didn't go the way you wanted it 292 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 3: to go, but I saw some good things from Max. Obviously, 293 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: there's some things that I'm sure he wants back. He 294 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 3: knows he's just got to take that sack rolling out 295 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 3: of the pocket. It's just one. You got to eat up. 296 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 3: It's unfortunate, but I think there's a lot of things 297 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 3: for him to learn. Who knows what the situation is 298 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 3: with it? 299 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: Or maybe on the fourth and one we plunge up 300 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 1: the middle, or run CJ Ham or run the tush 301 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: push with Brandon Pale, or run the wildcatter. Yeah, your 302 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: big second and kick a field goal if you wanted 303 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: to give it up in that spot, tick a field goal, 304 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 1: because the Alabama kid never misses. So that's I don't know, man, Yeah, 305 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: that's that one hurts.

Adam is 348 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: sault of the earth. Adam is if you get to 349 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: know him as well as I have during his career 350 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: and his family from Detroit Lakes, He's a He's a 351 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 1: heartfelt human being, genuinely cares about people. It was a 352 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: tough week for Adam feeling and it you know, it 353 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: probably was a tough week for the organization too. Now 354 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: the Vikings release said Blake Barrett's with Institute for Athletes 355 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: that contacted them before the Seahawks game, saying paraphrasing, you 356 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: ain't playing him. 357 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 2: This, that and the other. 358 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: And he thought on releasing him so he can latch 359 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: on with the pit, so he can latch on with 360 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: another team, maybe going to the playoffs. And and then 361 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: it got kind of quiet. And I understand why it 362 00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: got quiet, because they had a game to place on 363 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: and if feel in was not going to play in 364 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: the game, or play two plays or whatever. Then it's 365 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 1: organizationally pragmatic to watch the game and make sure everybody 366 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: gets out of it alive. Yeah, eighteen three one four 367 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: bahole thing. So they did that and that's where we 368 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: are now, and good for the team to grant a 369 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: Minnesota sports legacy the opportunity to finish his career with 370 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: a team that will be playoff bound now. Adam Thielen 371 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 1: also has something to say via a release that's available. 372 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: I believe it's at Vikings via the tweet machine. Nordo 373 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: has it at his fingertips. 374 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, and his specific his own X account Atheling nineteen. 375 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: Thank you.

Thank you. 377 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 4: This is tremendously difficult for me to write, certainly not 378 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 4: how any of us imagine this to go. As a 379 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 4: Minnesota native, putting on this uniform over the years and 380 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 4: representing this community both on and off the field has 381 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 4: always meant that much more to me. This team is 382 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 4: in my bones, it is in my heart, and it's 383 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 4: part of my DNA. I will always be in Minnesota Viking. 384 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 4: Since this last spring, I knew this was going to 385 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 4: be my last season playing in the National Football League, 386 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 4: given that the Vikings allowed me the opportunity to go 387 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 4: compete elsewhere for the last few weeks of my career. 388 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 4: Minnesota will always be our home. And we are incredibly 389 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 4: grateful to the will family, Quasko, Rob and everyone in 390 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 4: the Vikings organization for bringing us back in August. This 391 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 4: organization means the world to us from the top down. 392 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 4: And this locker room is filled with true professionals with 393 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 4: gratitude and love. And I'll be back to retire Adam. 394 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 4: That's beautiful. And the team did not have to do this, 395 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,199 Speaker 4: No chose to do it. 396 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: So now you got a pecking order here where the 397 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans can claim Adam Thieln once the release and 398 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: all the paperwork is done happens and he says, no, well, 399 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: that's a fat l for team eighty one nine. It 400 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: generally doesn't work that way. You know, I'm not saying 401 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 1: you got handshake agreements, but like the Tennessee Titans, with 402 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: somebody who has five games and some playoff games left 403 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: in their career, they're gonna do that. So then you 404 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: just keep going and keep going and keep going. So 405 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,479 Speaker 1: you know, when in knowing this was going to take 406 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: place this morning, I started to kind of read between 407 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: the lines, looking at how games went yesterday and recently, 408 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: and who has good records and stuff like that, and 409 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: who has good. 410 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 2: Quarterbacks and stuff like that. 411 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: And then I'd say, as we were negotiating moderate chop 412 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: over Montana at ESPN dot com, a story popped about 413 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers savaging his receivers for not being on point, 414 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: not watching enough. No, no, they're watching enough film. It's 415 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: just like what they're doing is not translating. And then 416 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: Calvin Austin was like, yeah, right, I mean we need 417 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: to be more on point. So that resonated with me 418 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: an AFC North team with a Hall of fame quarterback 419 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: who got after his receivers after a loss to Buffalo. 420 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: So that's where my mythical honeybee lands. As to what's 421 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 1: next for Adam Thielen. They brought him back because Jordan 422 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: Addison was on a three game suspension, and with respect, 423 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: Jordan Addison is a wild card in the whole equation 424 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: on suspension or not. We got the London walk you know, 425 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: walk through bit, just the whole thing, man, So I 426 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 1: pull for him. 427 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 2: I like Jordan A. 428 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: Lotti, supremely gifted, but nevertheless three game suspension needed. Somebody 429 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 1: got some wild card Jalen Naylor, some forget how to 430 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 1: bust it up hand into the season, so there was 431 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: a little bit of a problem there. So the Vikings 432 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: needed a receiver for multiple reasons into the season, and 433 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 1: they went and got Adam theeln So now adam skills 434 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: and leadership obviously were needed at that time, and and 435 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: something fell off. I don't even know how to explain it, 436 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: you know, to go from X amount of plays and 437 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: then Addison's back and Nailor's hands fine, and well Altiel 438 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, it's not playing. So that 439 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: that precipitated and led to everything that we've heard with 440 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: his representation respectfully asking the team, I mean, can you 441 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: release the guy so you know, his final X amount 442 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: of games? 443 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 2: Maybe he can he can take some kind of a run. 444 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: So it didn't pan out here, Barrett's contacts the team 445 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: and the team has acquiesced it's a crazy run for 446 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 1: at one nine comes home, doesn't work out, gets to 447 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 1: watch his Bob about this, and then he gets to 448 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: watch his former team go seven and six and beat 449 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: the la Rams and Bryce Field, right, and he was 450 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: with Bryce when Bryce's yards per attempt was four and 451 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 1: then he gradually got better. And Adam is Adam is very, 452 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: very fond of Bryce Young. Yeah, and so therefore, you 453 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: know that's all happening. Probably can't be super easy to 454 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: watch that. So somebody, like maybe the Steelers, feels like 455 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: what he offers is in what will be his final year, 456 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: So maybe somebody's going to take it on over here, 457 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: learn the offense, let's find a way to win together. 458 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 2: And so best of luck to Adam Deeling right. 459 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, one of the favorite receivers I've gotten to 460 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 3: watch being a Vikings fan for a long time. And 461 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 3: I think you're right. Obviously you're around him more. I 462 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 3: don't know him the way you know him, but seems 463 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 3: like a true assault of the earth kind of guy, 464 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:32,640 Speaker 3: and you wish him the best. 465 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 4: No, Adam, Adam is great and we will miss him, 466 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 4: and it's just but this is just part of a 467 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 4: wonky twenty twenty five just thinking right what he had 468 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 4: provided you see him he eclipses a couple of years ago, 469 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 4: one thousand yards with the fresh squad down in Charlotte 470 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 4: and everything's weird with Bryce Young and then it's like, okay, 471 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 4: well we do have the three game suspension, we do 472 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 4: have what what do we have in Speedy Naylor is 473 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 4: probably part of that conversation. So you feel good about 474 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 4: the fourth round pick, You feel good about some of 475 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 4: the equity you gave to Charlotte to bring him in 476 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 4: and to watch that snap count precipitously decline the way 477 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 4: it is culminating with the with the healthy scratch, I mean, 478 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 4: it just kind of feels and it's it's it's unfair 479 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 4: that a guy that's give nim Minnesota what he has 480 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 4: over the years that it kind of ends with a thud. Yeah, 481 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 4: I mean that's kind of and and in the end 482 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 4: it's going to be really positive at some point as 483 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 4: he retires, he'll retire as a Viking. There'll there'll be 484 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 4: a ton of positive conversations in the future down the road. 485 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 2: But right now it's just kind of ending with a thud. 486 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 2: I mean, he's just he's moving on. 487 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 4: Definitely rooting for him with the next squad, But our 488 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 4: team's got four wins, nineteen didn't get to contribute much 489 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 4: to the operation this year. 490 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 2: It's kind of ending with a thud with with with feeling. 491 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 4: So so hopefully he latches on to a spot that's 492 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 4: going to give him a chance to go out with 493 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 4: a couple w's under his. 494 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: Belt, fairly analyzed. Can you stick around for a short 495 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 1: segment around the corner. Yeah, let's start Parker Fox at 496 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: Parker Fox two four once again, the Viking's offered up 497 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: a release about ten minutes ago. Speaking of release, Adam 498 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: Feelin at his behest that of him and his agent, 499 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: Blake Barrett's at the request of them, the Vikings have 500 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: released Adam Thielen. They acquiesced to the demands or to 501 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: the request, and he's going to look to sign with 502 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 1: a team that has a good quarterback, potentially future Hall 503 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: of Fame quarterback and is going to the postseason. So 504 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,479 Speaker 1: that'll all be coming down the road. I fully expect 505 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: an announcement from another team later today or tomorrow as 506 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: to where he's going to be playing, and I fully 507 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: expect Adam Thielen to play for that team coming up 508 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: this weekend, which is going to be great for Vikings 509 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: fans where I'm like, how much more can they and 510 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: we take? I mean, what's next three, one, five or one, 511 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: five and three in a must win type game. 512 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 2: You know, well, we can go cheer on Adam Thielen's team, 513 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 2: I guess, and we will do that. That's exactly right. 514 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: Then Adam Adam and his twitter feed he wrote he 515 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: wrote something out and posted it. But that's all official 516 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: now and we wish at him. Well, we'll be right back, 517 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: all right, mister elite football mind. The last time we 518 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: chatted on the radio before today was Friday at Buffalo 519 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: Wild Wings Mall of America for the Friday Football Peace 520 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 1: and you know, just out of nowhere killing time. Near 521 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 1: the end of the show, I asked you what you 522 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: thought of the Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles, and I 523 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: built it up by saying the Dogs were barking on 524 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving every underdog one. Well, you basically paraphrasing, were like, well, Paul, 525 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: it's going to be four for four because not only 526 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 1: do I like Chicago to cover that point spread, I 527 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: like Chicago to win the game. 528 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 2: And then Bears went out and won the game. Well done. 529 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: And then Theeln's former team beats the LA Rams, and 530 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: now Chicago's in first place in the NFC, tied with 531 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: the Rams. But they have a better conference record each 532 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: team with five games to go. It rivalries, division rivalries, 533 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: fan base rivalries be damned. 534 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 2: There. There's no way to get around. 535 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: Saying it other than Ben Johnson has done spectacular work 536 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: with the Chicago Bears, and when they were set to 537 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: beat I mean play the Vikings, when I was deep. 538 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 2: Diving kind of who what where winning? Why? How they're winning? 539 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: Ladygain Cincinnati and Caleb's running it in from seventeen against 540 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: the New York Football Giants. Not great teams, but they're 541 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: finding the money. There was a lot of the Chicago 542 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: Bears that reminded me of the twenty twenty two Minnesota 543 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: Vikings when Kevin O'Connell brought the spirit back into the 544 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: building and positivity and innovation and things that had just 545 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: been lost in the previous year and previous x amount 546 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: of years. Well, they kind of did the same thing 547 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two when out all these close games 548 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: and everything, they did not finish as the one seed. 549 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: The You know, it's tough for me to predict that 550 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: the Bears will finish as the one seed. They have 551 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: an excellent chance. They're at lambeau Field this weekend three 552 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: twenty five boom. I mean, that's a spectacular game, but 553 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: nice tout on the Bears. 554 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 2: And and how'd you come up with that one? 555 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 3: I just love what they've been doing in the run game, 556 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 3: and it hit home against this Eagles team on their 557 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 3: home turf. Mynung guy goes for twenty two and one thirty, 558 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 3: Deandres Swift goes for eighteen one twenty five, and they 559 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 3: just dominated them in the run game. Burstch was talking 560 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 3: about it with the Vikings team, with the Skull team, 561 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 3: is they just weren't able to get the run game going, 562 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 3: you know. And I think it's such an important thing 563 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 3: across any level of football, and it's really prevalent in 564 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 3: the NFL as well. And then you look at Philadelphia's side, 565 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 3: say Kwan only goes for fifty seve and he's had 566 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 3: a tough year and it just hasn't been the year 567 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 3: that he had last year. But if you can dominate 568 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 3: that run game, if you can put up a two 569 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty five from your top two in the 570 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 3: running category, you're gonna win football games. 571 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: I didn't get a chance to watch either of the 572 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: last Wolves games. Watched all of the OKC game. We 573 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: talked about that Friday at the Feast. Your Timberwolves have 574 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: won two consecutive They have beaten two consecutive teams with 575 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: winning records. Huge caught San Antonio without Wemby, but that's 576 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 1: just how it works. And and Boston it looked like 577 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: that Saturday game between Jalen Brown and Anthony Edwards and 578 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: Boston and the Timberwolves. I mean that looked like a 579 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 1: heck of a game. It was like one seventeen, one 580 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: fifteen something like that. Did you get a chance to 581 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: watch either of the games, and if so, what were 582 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 1: you seeing? 583 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? 584 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 3: I wish I would have went to the Celtics one. 585 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 3: I opted out kind of last minute, kind of regretted that. 586 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 3: Did you go to the Battle for the Acts? 587 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: I did not. 588 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 3: I went pregame to Malcolm Yards, met up with a 589 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 3: couple of people too snowy, and. 590 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: Called for people. I'm not not a three and a 591 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 2: half hours in the snow. It's not going to work 592 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 2: at first resource. I'm not going to be in the snow. 593 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: That they need more tenacity wherewithal of tough nature or 594 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: nature to mental toughness. 595 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 3: And work ethic. Now you're right about that. You're You're 596 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 3: certainly right. I opted for for some games on the couch, 597 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 3: got you. But nonetheless, the Wolves have looked good. Getting 598 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 3: wins over you know, teams north of five hundred I 599 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 3: think is important. 600 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 2: I thought they looked pretty good against Okay, see, yeah, 601 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: they looked they looked good, you know. 602 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 3: And this is something that I think the Wolves are 603 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 3: really working on, is Hey, where do we go in 604 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 3: that last five minutes? 605 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 2: Like who is our leader? 606 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 3: You look at Anthony Edwards, right, he's your guy, But 607 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 3: at the same time, he's not. He's not the really 608 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 3: to set the offense up and facilitate and get guys 609 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 3: in the right spot kind of guy. He's the takeover 610 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: the game kind of guy. So I think they're trying 611 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 3: to figure that out and what that looks like. And 612 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 3: it's it's good that they got some wins over north 613 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 3: of five hundred teams. And you're right, no Stefan Castle, 614 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 3: no Wemby, So that's a no, that's what you should 615 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 3: win type of you know game. But but nonetheless, you 616 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 3: won the game and you move on and now you 617 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 3: go to New Orleans tomorrow and you try to get 618 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 3: one down there. 619 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: How about Jalen Brown Sans Jason Tatum, I mean, and 620 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: he gets a chance to spread his proverbial wings and 621 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: show his the totality of his overall game. 622 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 2: Jalen's a tough sucker. I think. 623 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: I think he's been nurse nursing and nurturing a back 624 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: for a little while. Doesn't miss games played played in 625 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: a back to back, So you know, Tatum is a 626 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: ball dominating type players as as as you know, and 627 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: he's you know, one of the best five or whatever 628 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: in the NBA, but he's out for the year and 629 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: for Boston, like one of my favorite players in the league. 630 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: The best shot blocking guard in the league is Derek White, 631 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: and Derek can still block shots, and Derek's good and 632 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: Derek has good games, but he's fallen off a little 633 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: bit without Tatum and Brown playing the way he's playing. 634 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: So that's just you know, it's it's I'm not going 635 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: to call basketball the ultimate team game. There's a team 636 00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: facet to it for sure, connectivity, but really it comes 637 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: down to the to the matchups late late in the 638 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: shot clock. Yeah, the pick and roll, we're going over, 639 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: we're going under? Are we not repeating ls? How's the 640 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: help defense? What's my size like compared to another team. 641 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: So it's a team game, but you know what I mean, 642 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: dred percent football and hockey ultimate team games where a 643 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: has to go to B two CD DDE just to get. 644 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 2: That thing to work. 645 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: And and I've just been you know, really and I 646 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: didn't see the game, but really impressed with like Jalen 647 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: Brown's overall game rebounding, steals, assists, shooting percentage can be 648 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: super up and down. 649 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 3: But he's just a dog man. He's a tough, tough player. 650 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 3: I mean, he's a super max type of guy. You know, 651 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 3: he's a he deserves the money he's getting for a reason. 652 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 3: He's a top three pick out of cal I think 653 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 3: he's averaging about twenty ninety game this year. 654 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 2: But I think you're right. 655 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 3: It's all about matchups, and Derek White is now in 656 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 3: a position where he's getting that secondary defender versus getting 657 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 3: that third defender, So at any time, I think that 658 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 3: can change some of the things. I think they're really 659 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 3: well coached. I think Missoula does a really good job 660 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 3: over there. They get them in the right spots. You know, 661 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 3: he coaches them really hard. But it's just a difference 662 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 3: when you're the second guy versus the third guy. You're 663 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 3: carrying the balls in your hands more. You're not coming 664 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 3: off of, you know, driving kick type of situations. You're 665 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 3: creating the driving kick situations. But Jaylen Brown, he's a 666 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 3: super Max guy for a reason, and I think he's 667 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 3: got a bright future ahead. Hopefully that one two punch 668 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 3: can stay in Dallas, I mean stay in Boston and 669 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 3: they can continue to afford them. 670 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: So about an hour ago when we had PJ fleck 671 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: on and you guys were talking about the the the 672 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 1: students and just the crowd and everything, and I'm glad 673 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: you guys went down that road because you know, I 674 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: just I had forgotten how Barren and you know how 675 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: the student section just wasn't great, probably early when PJ 676 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: was here, but certainly before him. And you know, watching 677 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: this thing while flying to Seattle and just seeing the 678 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: beauty that is a snowy football game in what PJ 679 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: calls the snow globe, those are just wonderful visuals. But 680 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: the student section again was packed. And every time I 681 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: watch a Gophers game, it's like that. Well it was 682 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: like that when when you played basketball there and like 683 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: went to the games, you and Taylor and stuff, I 684 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: mean it's like the fans, you know, whether they're seven 685 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: and five or they're winning nine or ten whatever it 686 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: was with ten or Morgan beating Penn State on that Saturday, 687 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 1: it's that they've embraced it and they've embraced this culture. 688 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 689 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 3: I remember going in to be a student at the 690 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 3: U and one of my first classes was was some 691 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 3: sort of sport class and we were researching. We were 692 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 3: trying to figure out, like how do you keep students 693 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 3: there for the second half? 694 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 2: Right, Like how do you you got students that want 695 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 2: to go to the game that's part of a class 696 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 2: where you get an extra actual credit. Yeah, it was 697 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 2: like it was like a sport marketing type of class. 698 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 3: So we were working on like promotions for said football game, right, 699 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 3: and how do we keep students around because the kind 700 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 3: of the. 701 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: That's brilliant by the university. Why paying a marketing advertising 702 00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: firm one point three million? 703 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 3: The students do it and call it a credit the kids, man, 704 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,719 Speaker 3: get the young minds out, brilliant, but talk this insta 705 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 3: of that right this. 706 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 2: Uh, And we kind of we were like, how do 707 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 2: you do it right? 708 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 3: How do you how do you get kids to stay 709 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 3: versus going to Sally's Saloon and going to party and 710 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 3: or going to house parties in the whole bit. But 711 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 3: I think at the end of the day, it has 712 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 3: to come from PJ. Fleck and the culture that he creates, 713 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 3: and it has to be something where you're proud of 714 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 3: this football team, You're there for a reason, you want 715 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 3: to be there, and I think he's really created that. 716 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 2: So I give a lot of respect to PJ. 717 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 3: The road, the Bowl culture, and I think it's really 718 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 3: he's really built something special. 719 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: Now, you know, I asked him, and I knew he 720 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't answer, but I wanted to play around with the 721 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: Bowl game. 722 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 2: Like do you have any idea like it? 723 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: Have there been any stories or anything like the five 724 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: potential places they haven't been? 725 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 3: I know, I haven't seen anything they're going to go 726 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 3: on it yet.
