Yeah, I uh, because I decided 126 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 4: that I wanted to own a home. This is my 127 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 4: second home. My first home, I had a short driveway 128 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 4: and I didn't have a snowballer. When you buy your 129 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 4: first home, you don't know what. You don't know what 130 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 4: you're supposed to have. I call it a starter home. 131 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 4: It was was brand new, real small. I mean for me, 132 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 4: you know, it was barely two thousand square feet. I 133 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 4: considered that a kind of a small house. Maybe for 134 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 4: some people it's a mansion. Everybody's a different place in 135 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 4: their life, right And I thought, well, I'm just going 136 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 4: to shovel snow. That's what do, man, You shovel your snow. 137 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 4: It's not that big of a driveway. And I would 138 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 4: shovel my snow and I would see my neighbors all 139 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 4: with their snowblowers running them while I'm blows and I 140 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 4: used to kind of and of course they couldn't hear 141 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 4: me over the dinner their snowblowers, but I would yell, 142 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 4: you're soft, shovel be man, and then I would see 143 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 4: that they would finish, and then they pull their snowblowers 144 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 4: into the garage, and then the garage that would closed 145 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 4: and would be quiet except for my shovel digging into 146 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 4: the snow on the asphalt. And I'm like, I got 147 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 4: another two hours out here. They were done like twenty minutes. 148 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 4: And I thought to myself, not, that's the way to go. 149 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 4: So I decided, it isn't being soft, it's being smart. 150 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 4: But here's the issue. This is what happened to me. So, 151 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 4: by the way, is anybody else just I know, you 152 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 4: know we live here, and you know it's Minnesota.

It 156 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 4: wouldn't stop, just just inch after inch, foot after foot. 157 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 8: It was. 158 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 4: I mean, I did my driveway twice. And the reason 159 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 4: I did it twice is I woke it. I'm terrified 160 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 4: of getting wet, heavy snow clogged in my snowblower because 161 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 4: if it gets clogged in your snowblower, it's really hard 162 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 4: to get it get it out of there. And then 163 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 4: it's like, well, now it's gonna what should be maybe 164 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 4: an hour to get a driveway done. With the kind 165 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 4: of snow we had you're looking at days, I could 166 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 4: still be out there right now trying to remove snow 167 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 4: from my driveway. So but I learned something. I because 168 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 4: what's happened? Because it said it was gonna be what 169 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 4: heavy snow. So I got up at five o'clock in 170 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 4: the morning, couldn't sleep, tossing and turning, panic that my 171 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 4: my driveway is not going to get done. So I 172 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 4: go out there and I fire up, I fire big 173 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 4: sit up, and I learned something, you know, So here's 174 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 4: what I did. I googled how how do you blow wet, 175 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 4: heavy snow without getting clogged. You know what it said 176 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 4: it wanted me to do. Wanted me to take you know, 177 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 4: like cooking spray that you put on like a h 178 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,439 Speaker 4: on a cookie sheet, or you put it on a 179 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 4: frying pants so things don't stick. It said, spray that 180 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 4: into your snow blower. And I'm like, well, it's not 181 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 4: gonna work. That's the most preposterous thing I've ever heard, 182 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 4: because it's like, how much do you put in this guy? 183 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 4: The demonstration, some guy had some industrial strength sprayer. I 184 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 4: don't have an industrial strength sprayer, and I'm not going 185 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 4: to go get an industrial spranks prayer. But it said 186 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 4: blow the snow at the highest gear you have, right, 187 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 4: So it's just it's so so it doesn't get a 188 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 4: chance to get stuck. And then it said, instead of 189 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 4: doing one big, huge swath, do a half a swath. 190 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 4: And it worked and I got my driveway done. Of course, 191 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 4: it's six thirty in the morning now I'm done. Everybody 192 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 4: else is still sleeping, and I go, I'm gonna have 193 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 4: to go do it again now, to which I had 194 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,599 Speaker 4: to do, and I became so frustrated with it and 195 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 4: so angry. This is this is what I did. I 196 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 4: built a snowman in my front yard. Put a little 197 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 4: top hat on him, you know, corn cob pipe and 198 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 4: a button nose and two eyes made out of call 199 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 4: and then I beat him to death with a snowshovel. 200 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 4: Just absolutely destroyed My neighbors if they were watching, must 201 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,199 Speaker 4: have thought I was insane because. 202 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 3: I built him. It was so beautiful. 203 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 4: You had the big fat bottom on the bottom, and 204 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 4: the next one and the next one. I had a 205 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 4: little top hat on them and you know, a little 206 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 4: you little you know, carrot for a nose, and I 207 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 4: just took my shovel and I just it was It's 208 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 4: sort of like have you seen the uh uh the 209 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 4: Morgan Stanley commercial on UH on TV?

It's one of those I can't miss 215 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,559 Speaker 4: because I just love the way he gets He's just 216 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 4: hacking it in these bunkers and then he just and 217 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 4: then he trunk slams.

He throws him into the trunk of his card. 219 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,719 Speaker 4: He just slams down the trunk. Now, I don't really 220 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 4: think he does it. His caddy slams the trunk for him. 221 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 4: I would think.

I 223 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 4: don't know, but I felt like justin Rose, I just 224 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 4: bet and it felt so good to just release all 225 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 4: that built up anger toward toward winters.

One of the things. We 282 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: broached this topic last week regarding the new quarterback of 283 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 4: the soon to be a Big Game world champion Minnesota Viking, 284 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 4: as a kid by the name of Kyler Murray apparently 285 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 4: rose and thought his name was Kyle. And I guess 286 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 4: if you drop the R, it is Kyle, right, maybe 287 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 4: he goes by Kyle. As a matter of fact, I 288 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 4: heard pa I was in Greg Sweatberg's office, newest UH inductee, 289 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 4: and that won't happen till later this year though. The 290 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 4: latest iHeart inductee into the u UH Minnesota Broadcasters Hall 291 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 4: of Fame, the PAVOC. I just ran into Dave Bryan 292 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 4: who was leaving. He had a big plastic bin carrying it. 293 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 4: I was wondering for a second. I thought he'd let go, 294 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 4: because you know, generally if you're carrying a big box 295 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 4: or a big plastic storage bin and you're leaving the 296 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 4: radio station seriously because you've been let go. But they 297 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 4: well they're not gonna let Dave Ryan go. He just 298 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 4: got into the Hall of Fame. He's legendary. I think 299 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 4: maybe it's one of those things where because we're downsizing, 300 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 4: like like I have an office now and by the way, 301 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 4: just close sergat to management. I've done my best work 302 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 4: since being given an office, and now they're going to 303 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 4: take my office away come this spring. And so maybe 304 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 4: Dave Bryan was just you know, taking some things that 305 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 4: he had here because we're all gonna have small the workspaces, 306 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 4: So maybe he was just taking it home. But I 307 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 4: congratulated him. He's also one of Marconi. He's legendary, just 308 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 4: like Greg Sweedburg is and everybody else. But I Pa 309 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 4: was on in the background on on the on the 310 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 4: radio and he was calling him Eddie in Eddie in 311 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 4: the kid for he's a running back. But that's not 312 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 4: how you say his name. It's a cham. Did you 313 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 4: know that? 314 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 3: I did? 315 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 4: Well, how did you know?

I didn't have 334 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 9: to just tell him I have to create them every 335 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 9: day to say my name. And just when I kind 336 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 9: of just started learning more about my last name and 337 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 9: how it came about and things like that, he's just 338 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 9: kind of stuck. It made sense. But I'm very much 339 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 9: open to being Travis H. Chan again, just being myself. 340 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 9: I don't have to crate people here on how to 341 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 9: say my name each and every day, and I kind 342 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 9: of love that, and uh, that's just uh, just get 343 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 9: get back to me. 344 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 4: He's back to who he is. He's a Chan he's 345 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 4: a Chan. So that's the name. 346 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 3: It's a Chan. 347 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 4: And I didn't know. I didn't even know who the 348 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 4: hell he was until all of a sudden I stumbled 349 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 4: across the story. So the name is a Chan, that 350 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 4: is what it is. So now we know how to 351 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 4: correctly pronounce his name anyway. Nevertheless, or we're talking about 352 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 4: Kyle Murray, he's a different sort of quarterback than we've 353 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 4: had here recently, included with JJ McCarthy, Carson Wentz, certainly 354 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins, even Sam Darneld Donald had a little bit 355 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 4: of mobility, right, I guess Wentz could, you know, plot 356 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 4: around a little bit. But McCarthy's got some athleticism and 357 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 4: can run a little bit. But it's certainly not Kyler. 358 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 4: Murray is much more. He's got some mobility to him, right, 359 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 4: and some athleticism. And some are wondering, well, how does 360 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 4: he fit in to the Vikings offense the way it 361 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 4: is currently constituted. All of these play callers offensive coordinators, 362 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 4: which Kevin O'Connell is not only the head coach, but 363 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 4: also I guess you know, technically he doesn't have the 364 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 4: offensive coordinator title, but he indeed it's it's his offense right, 365 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 4: and a story in the fish Wrap Factory West Side 366 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 4: took a deep dive into that how does Murray fit 367 00:18:55,359 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 4: into O'Connell's offense, and it says not all play action 368 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 4: is the same. A seven step drop from under center 369 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 4: is different from an under center rollout or those from 370 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,919 Speaker 4: shotgun or pistol distances. They require different footwork and lenda 371 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 4: a differing preferences among qbs. That said, Murray's preference is 372 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 4: clearly not under center. He's been an effective play action 373 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 4: passer from the shotgun in pistol formations, which account for 374 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 4: three thousand and eighty of his three three and forty 375 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 4: two dropbacks in the NFL or ninety two point two 376 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 4: percent per Sports Info Solutions. Because somebody sat there and 377 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 4: had to watch that. I got a job for you today. 378 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 4: You know you work at Sports Info Solutions. They go, 379 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 4: what do you want me to do today? I need 380 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 4: you to watch every single pass Kyler Murray has thrown 381 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 4: and tell me did he drop back out of center 382 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 4: or was he in the shotgun or in the pistol. 383 00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 4: Then you got to go straight back, straight back, drop 384 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 4: back under center and then pistol. Hey did a pistol, 385 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 4: Hey did a shotgun. Oh no, wait, he does the 386 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 4: pistol and shotguns. It's the under center what he doesn't do. 387 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 4: I'm assuming the guy that had to look at all 388 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 4: those event I bet that number is not even accurate 389 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 4: because he got so bored that tedious job he just started. 390 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 4: He did like almost what do they call it an 391 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 4: average or a median where he just said the hell 392 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 4: with it, I'm not going to sit here and look 393 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 4: at this all day. This is this is a terrible job. 394 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 4: It's a terrible assignment. But nevertheless, what it says is 395 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 4: this would require a shift from O'Connell. Cousins led the 396 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 4: NFL and under center dropbacks in twenty twenty two, and 397 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 4: Donald ranked second in twenty twenty four. So, in other words, 398 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 4: Donald and Cousins they played from under center. Murray doesn't 399 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 4: like to play from under center, or at least that's 400 00:20:54,560 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 4: not his strength, and we talked about this last week. 401 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:06,959 Speaker 4: To me, it's I mean, you can ask the player 402 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 4: to make some changes, right, But to me, it's like, 403 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 4: if he's more comfortable playing that way and he's been 404 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 4: more successful doing it that way, then that's where I 405 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 4: think it's easier to tweak your system a little bit. 406 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 4: A coach should be able to go, okay, I got 407 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 4: something different to work with. Now, this is kind of fun, 408 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 4: sort of like that mad scientist experiment. I'm going to 409 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 4: have to design more plays where we work out of 410 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 4: a shotgun than we do under center. Under center is 411 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 4: kind of nice, I mean, because when you're out of 412 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 4: the shotgun, it's a little harder to sell play action 413 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,719 Speaker 4: while it's a running back stand right next to you, right. 414 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 4: I just think it's harder to sell play action. So 415 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 4: under center, I think is probably better because when the 416 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 4: guy drops back to pass and he does the old 417 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 4: you know, is he going to give it to the 418 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 4: running back or is he not going to give it 419 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,479 Speaker 4: to the running back, especially if you have a if 420 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 4: you have an effective running game, it's the vikings where 421 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 4: they haven't had since Adrian Peterson, right, I mean a 422 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 4: really afective running him. I mean really where it's like 423 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 4: you're all hands on deck when Peterson's in the backfield. 424 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 4: You're expecting Rod, you know, you're that's what you're you're 425 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 4: looking for. I think that makes it a little bit 426 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 4: more difficult for the defense too, to line up against 427 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 4: and determine what the what the offense wants to do, 428 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 4: because our let's let's face it, we're bringing back a 429 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 4: j you know, A Jones and you know, I just 430 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 4: and then we and then we got the kid that 431 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 4: we got from San Francisco two years No, is that 432 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 4: where we got him? What's his name again, the backup 433 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 4: running back Mason, Jordan Mason. Yeah, and he's all right, 434 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 4: he's pretty good. So I bet I. I certainly don't 435 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 4: put their running game near the top of the list 436 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 4: of the league. So let's see him get her done 437 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 4: when we come back.

But 500 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 4: your family finds out where you died because first responder 501 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 4: guy couldn't get there because he didn't want to start 502 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 4: a snowblower at five point thirty in the morning. He 503 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 4: wanted to wait till later nine while everybody was up. 504 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 4: Do you agree? You don't have to agree. You're entitled 505 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 4: in your own stupid or your own abouts. I mean, 506 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 4: plus the winds blowing thirty miles an hour, there's the 507 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 4: snow by the way. Does lessen? And I will say this, 508 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 4: I did hear my neighbors snow snowblower at seven thirty 509 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 4: eight o'clock in the morning. But it was and it 510 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 4: was a couple three houses away, and I could hear, 511 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 4: but it wasn't like it was rattling the the frames 512 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 4: of my windows or anything like that. Your thoughts. 513 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 8: I'm someone where I could literally sleep forever. I have 514 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 8: no natural alarm clock. So if I was in a 515 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 8: neighborhood and heard you at five point thirty, I would 516 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 8: be annoyed. But then my comeback to that is, well, 517 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 8: don't live in a neighborhood, you know what I mean. 518 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 6: Go live in a place that's secluded. Yes, very secluded, 519 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 6: but it wouldn't be me. I would wait until the 520 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 6: last second because I got to get that sleep. Yeah, 521 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 6: and literally I could sleep until one in the afternoon 522 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 6: if I didn't set an alarm. 523 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 3: My body just knows. Oh yeah, my body knows. No 524 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 3: bounce on sleeping, no kidding. 525 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I'm almost like I'm jealous of people. Just 526 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 8: go oh, I get up at eight a m. Every day, 527 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 8: Like I get a check. 528 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 4: In the summer. I don't even need alarm because I 529 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 4: know I'm going golfing. I'm I mean, I said it 530 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 4: just in case. 531 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I get up. 532 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 4: Literally every morning for golf. I'm up by four thirty 533 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 4: quarter to five every single day. They just automatically get up. 534 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 8: If I ever get the text this summer loggers, tomorrow morning, 535 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 8: seven am you in, I will have no less than 536 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 8: six alarms ready to go. 537 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 4: What if at any moment, what if it's pressed with 538 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 4: four thirty in the morning. 539 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 3: I would still I would have seven or rate alarms. 540 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,719 Speaker 3: I'd be there. So I got to get up here. 541 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 4: Here's another thing. There there somebody here at the radio. 542 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 4: You know, this is a vacation time for a lot 543 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 4: of people. I generally kind of rolled my eyes, shrug 544 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 4: my shoulder, and shake my head for people that go 545 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 4: on winter vacation in mid to late March, because generally, 546 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 4: and this this would be the year that it was 547 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 4: a wise thing to do if you saw what happened 548 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 4: this weekend, right, generally, though, I like to take mine 549 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 4: in January kind of split up the winner, right because 550 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 4: by this time, I mean two a week ago, I 551 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 4: was golfing. A week ago, today I was golfing. 552 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 9: Now. 553 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 4: It wasn't ideal, it wasn't like you know, sixty five 554 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 4: seventy seventy five degrees. But if I want my winter vacation. 555 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 4: I don't want it when summer or spring is starting 556 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 4: to sprung. Spring spring sprung, right, But that's not But 557 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 4: that's not the point of this long Rambley dissertation. What 558 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 4: is is somebody are at the radio station went on 559 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 4: a vacation, and I said, did you get in and 560 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 4: get out? Because they were planning to fly out on Saturday. 561 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 4: The text back said it's a goal for two thirty. 562 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 4: At this point, at two thirty Saturday afternoon, winds were 563 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 4: blowing thirty to forty miles an hour, snow is sideways 564 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 4: were smack dab in the midst of this bad boy blizzard. 565 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 4: And they're at MSP saying we're taking off, you know, 566 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 4: And again I guess you gotta trust them, right, I 567 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 4: don't know if I want to get on that plane 568 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 4: with the way the weather was. Obviously they knew what 569 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 4: they were doing because the plane left at two thirty, 570 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 4: and all's well, that ends well. 571 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 9: But I. 572 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 4: Do you see what I'm saying. 573 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 3: I get it. I think once you're in the air, 574 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 3: well you're in the air, but it's getting into the air. 575 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's you got to de ice them. And I 576 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 4: know they know what they're doing there as well. But 577 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 4: what if you had a bad day, What if what 578 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 4: if the icing guy had a bad day, and just 579 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 4: the idea of get you know, if you when you're 580 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 4: flying and you hit that turbulence, you see those wings, 581 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 4: they look like you're about to bust off at the bolts. 582 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 4: They're just going and I know they need to be 583 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 4: that way. There has to be some give to them, 584 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 4: otherwise they would just snap off. Yeah, but I'm out 585 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 4: there looking. That doesn't win. I'm going, man, it's this 586 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 4: thing gonna make it. But apparently all the world that ends. Well, 587 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 4: they they they took off and it was good. 588 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: But I. 589 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 4: I gotta admit I I don't. Here's one last time 590 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 4: I checked, snowblowers are not under the Noise Ordnance rules 591 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 4: for the very reason you talk about. I see, I 592 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 4: did not know that, But that only does make sense. 593 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 594 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 4: Here's one that says, try try justifying your insane start 595 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 4: time to the parents of the baby you woke up 596 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 4: in the neighborhood common Well it's that. Here's another one 597 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 4: that says, it's called a shovel. Yeah, if I were 598 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 4: to tried to snow that snubble shovel that wet, heavy snow. 599 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 4: I hope first responder Guy did blow his driver because 600 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 4: he would have to come to my house to revive 601 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 4: me from a heart attack. Your golf season would be over. 602 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 4: Plus it would be over. Speaking of that, my life 603 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 4: was supposed to change four o'clock Saturday. I was supposed 604 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 4: to get fit for the I five forties over at 605 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 4: Second Swing in Minnetonka. But I texted Aaron, I said, look, 606 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 4: it looks like this blizzard could be so we rescheduled. 607 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 4: But then I and by the time four o'clock rolled around, 608 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 4: it was snowing. But I still probably could have made it. 609 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 4: But the weather affected my You know that that changed 610 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 4: my life, Well just momentarily. It's not going to change 611 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 4: it forever, right, but certainly it changed it for the 612 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 4: time being. My dad flew seven forty sevens for Northwest. 613 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 4: He would say the most dangerous part of the trip 614 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 4: was the drive to the airport and back. Yeah, here's 615 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 4: what that says. That's at two point thirty on Saturday, 616 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 4: the storm hadn't even started. Well, I guess you're right. 617 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 4: I guess it really happened because it started snowing in 618 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 4: uh in uh Woodbury about four, So maybe it's right 619 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 4: it was, but still as high winds it's here's another one. 620 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 4: The wings also flex to improve the ride during turbulence. 621 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 4: Otherwise the cabin we bounced around even more than it 622 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 4: already is. Wouldn't feel bad about snow blowing early. It's 623 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 4: not like people have their windows open. Yeah, here's another 624 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 4: common The odds that having a perfect bracket is one 625 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 4: in nine point two quintillion. It's that million dollar price 626 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 4: seems abysmally low, Like you said, never going to happen. 627 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 4: It should be if you get it. If the odds 628 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 4: are literally one in nine point two quintillion, that should 629 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 4: be how much money you win if you have a 630 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 4: perfect bracket, you should win nine point two quintillion dollars. 631 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 4: And if you want it, that's great. But think about this, 632 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,959 Speaker 4: and so I tell people all the time nine point 633 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 4: two quintillion, Well that's nine hundred and eighty six billion 634 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 4: twitter and thirty nine thousand dollars after taxes. Then you 635 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 4: got got a house, got a car. Everything costs money, taxes, spend, 636 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 4: invest say flawed, that equals out to about a trillion 637 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 4: dollars a year. Can you make that last? I always 638 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 4: love that one. Can you make that last would be 639 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 4: the big question. I don't know if you can. I 640 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 4: this is probably did you you watch selection Sunday for 641 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 4: the say, I was out blown the snow for the 642 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 4: second time of the day, so I did not. 643 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 3: I did not, unfortunately, watch the wild Yeah. 644 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 4: I we'll get to that. We've got plenty of time. 645 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 4: I find myself. And we've talked about this for the 646 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 4: past couple of years, and I talked about it in 647 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 4: a number of times throughout the Gopher basketball season. When 648 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 4: you don't have the hometown five, when they're not a 649 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 4: factor at all, it's I don't get as exit. I 650 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 4: mean ones get started. We have it here on the TV, 651 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 4: and you fill out your bracket, I'll start, you know, 652 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 4: I'll get into the spirit of things. But when you 653 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 4: don't have a team now now again on the women's side, 654 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 4: we do have the the Minnesota golfers, they got it, 655 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 4: though they have it different with the gals. They get 656 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 4: two home games, right which in the NCAA turn for 657 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 4: the men's there's no home games. You know, you're you 658 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 4: go out to the central locations South. I don't know 659 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 4: what it's. I don't know what what each region is 660 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 4: it's it's the South and the West and northeast or 661 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 4: whatever it is. But they don't have a actual lum 662 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 4: anybody has a home game. But you know, if you 663 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 4: get the number one seed, you pretty much get a gimme, right, 664 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 4: So everybody knows that I did see where yesterday Purdue 665 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 4: beat Michigan in the Big Ten Conference championship game. Which 666 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 4: would I think Purdue was ranked? They were, They're the 667 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 4: top twenty. So it's not like it was a massive upset, 668 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 4: I don't think. But still it's it's it's it's it's 669 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 4: a it's an upsetting. Nonetheless, I suppose I'll do do 670 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 4: you do a bracket thing? I do one just within 671 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 4: the family, and maybe I'll yeah, and that's about it. 672 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,879 Speaker 4: I don't want and done. And maybe one silly one 673 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 4: where like my team or my mom's team, like I 674 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 4: State or Wisconsin go the whole way. But really that's it, 675 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 4: and I pay attention. But it's just as a non hoops, 676 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,839 Speaker 4: a casual, as BBP would say. It's not something where 677 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 4: I'm locked in. I've got the four split screens on 678 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 4: every matchup, like I'll have, well, I I'll do, I 679 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 4: I guess I'll follow my my uh it is how 680 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 4: I've approached the NCAA bracket stuff. I talked to Dylan, 681 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 4: who is used to be a sales guy here. He was, 682 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 4: he was he was the guy that always put the 683 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 4: pools together here at the radio station. And I called 684 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 4: him out of the blue the other day. I haven't 685 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 4: talked to him in a long time. He was surprised 686 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 4: to hear from me. He was probably wonder where I 687 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 4: got his phone number. Sounded almost disappointed, but he said 688 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 4: he is going to do a bracket again. You know 689 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 4: what that all here at uh at at iHeart are 690 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 4: are in. So I'll do the same thing I do. 691 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 4: I put together three of them, right. I put together 692 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 4: one where I sort of kind of just through my 693 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 4: you know, and I'm a cat when it comes to 694 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 4: college basketball as well. But I'll go where I sort 695 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 4: of kind of know some things I've heard and what 696 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 4: you've read, and I'll put one together. Then I do 697 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 4: one with just all sorts of upsets, right, you know, 698 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 4: not every game. And I'm said, but I'll throw in 699 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 4: all right, I'm I'm gonna have this team take a run. 700 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,800 Speaker 4: I'm gonna these are going to be my two Cinderella Clubs, 701 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 4: and I'm gonna go with them and I'll have a 702 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 4: little bit more fun with it. Then I do the 703 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 4: bracket that I do every year, and it's worked for 704 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 4: me once where I take every top seed winning so 705 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 4: that by the time I get to the final four, 706 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 4: it's five all four number one seeds in the championship bracket. 707 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 4: And the first time I ever did a bracket back 708 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 4: in nineteen ninety two, that was my best board. It 709 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 4: had three of the number ones and a number two, 710 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,399 Speaker 4: and I was the Only problem is once you get 711 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 4: to that point, you got to pick the ones that 712 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 4: are going to win, right, because when it's a one 713 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 4: against the one, there's not like you're taking the higher 714 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,840 Speaker 4: seed anymore. And I picked both games wrong in the 715 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,840 Speaker 4: final four, ended up losing. I think I finished like 716 00:38:57,960 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 4: third or something, but I did not win the money. 717 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 4: So that's what I'll do as far as the NCAA 718 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 4: Tournament of Boards go, and uh, we'll just uh, we'll 719 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 4: go from there. Uh did you did you say you 720 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 4: had five, three, four locked and loaded with golf stuff? 721 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:18,880 Speaker 1: I do. 722 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, then we'll we'll say did you watch any 723 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 4: of the players yesterday? 724 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 3: I watched most of yesterday. 725 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I watched it pretty much start to finish. I 726 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 4: will say this, somebody, I think Deuce told me he 727 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 4: was listening to the Power Trip morning show. He likes 728 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,879 Speaker 4: re leaving eighth grade every morning as well Power Show, 729 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 4: And he said on when they were doing their picks 730 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 4: on on Wednesday that some of the members of the 731 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 4: show were kind of complaining, almost whining about why do 732 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 4: they just call it a fifth Major? Why isn't it 733 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,479 Speaker 4: just a fifth Major? Because everybody, everybody for years, people 734 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 4: have been calling the players the fifth Major. It's a 735 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 4: it's a ay. It probably has the best field, well 736 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 4: it does. It has the best field of any tournament 737 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 4: all you It's like even at Augusta. The invitations, like 738 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 4: if you won the the Poorto we Can Open, you 739 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 4: get invited. Is the guy that wins the Puerto Rican 740 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 4: Open one of the best players in the world. Now 741 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 4: if you win an amateur chance they give players that 742 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 4: have won championships in other countries the Open, like the 743 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,800 Speaker 4: Singapore Open gets an invite. Now I'm exaggerating on Singapore, 744 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 4: but you get what I'm saying. So it's probably not 745 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 4: as strong as like right now, the players has the 746 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 4: strongest feel that has all the the FedEx Cup, top 747 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 4: FedEx Cup players, top night players in the world, cetera, 748 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 4: et cetera. I just don't feel a need. I don't 749 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 4: know how you feel about it as a golf fan 750 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 4: to have to officially label it as a major. If 751 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 4: you want to count it as a major, just pretending 752 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 4: your head it's a major. I think that's how the 753 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 4: players approach it. Not the players tournament, I mean the 754 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,439 Speaker 4: golfers that are participating, Because for me, the problem becomes 755 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 4: and I know this happens in all sports. When you 756 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 4: went from one hundred and fifty four games to one 757 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,760 Speaker 4: hundred and sixty two in Major League Baseball, the record 758 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 4: books change, right, they just do. And the same thing 759 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 4: for golf. So you're going to start calling that a major, Well, now, 760 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 4: what's a Grand Slam of golf? Yep? 761 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 2: Right? 762 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 4: And then if do you go back retroactively and anybody 763 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,720 Speaker 4: who wanted players is now considered that they want a major, 764 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 4: I guess you can do that, but I just don't. 765 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 4: I just it's to me, I just don't feel that 766 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 4: there's a need to officially make it a major. It's 767 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,360 Speaker 4: like my theory about having the national championship. In football, 768 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 4: they used to just have the mythical national champ. Sports 769 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 4: writers would write about it after all the ball games 770 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 4: on January first, January second, they would determine a champ. Now, 771 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 4: I know that's imperfect and that was never going to do. 772 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 4: That was never going to last. But I just don't 773 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 4: see an issue with not calling it a major. I 774 00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 4: think the way it went down, the way the way 775 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 4: it's going down right now, where you just you play 776 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 4: it before the Masters, and you have the Masters, the PGA, 777 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 4: the the US Opening, the Open Championship and just leave 778 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 4: it at four so I don't need, I don't need 779 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 4: to muddy the waters with the new one. 780 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 8: So very quick research, so grain of salt here. But 781 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 8: how many Grand Slam golfers there are? 782 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 3: One? 783 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 8: Yes, six, So you've got Gene I don't know how 784 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,720 Speaker 8: to pronounce his last, Saracen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Nicholas 785 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 8: Woods and now Macklelroy uh four of them also have won. 786 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 8: The players, Ben Hogan and Sarazen, the players didn't exist 787 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 8: at that point of course, so that that those would 788 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 8: be the two people that that's not least their Grand 789 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 8: Slam status, which. 790 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 4: That's not right. And Hogan was probably a better Well, 791 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 4: Hogan was a better ball striker than all those guys, 792 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 4: So why would you want to do that to Ben? 793 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 8: Oh? 794 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 4: Ben doesn't then you have to put an asterisk next 795 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 4: to Ben's name. That's sacrilegious. Put in same with Sarah's. 796 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 8: If they just say they're honorary players champions. I guess 797 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 8: you could do that, yeah, or. 798 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 4: You could just leave it like it is and not 799 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 4: worry about it. There's enough importance put on that tournament 800 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 4: as it is. It doesn't need to have, you know, 801 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 4: a cherry on top. I don't think. I think it's 802 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 4: fine the way it is, but that's just me. Well, 803 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 4: pause will come back when we do. We have a 804 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 4: little five three four for you, Brett blakemore, do you 805 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 4: have a tea sporus more 806 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 8: Golf talk and will panic our patience with the wild 807 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 8: Earn
