6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 2: You big, Harry Potter guy, I do enjoy it. I

7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 2: remember we had the conversation of what house you would

8
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 2: be in? That's that's we did have that conversation.

9
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 3: Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire opened in theaters

10
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 3: twenty years ago today, November eighteen, twenty years ago today.

11
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 2: It's one of my favorites.

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 3: I'm with you, it's not my favor I never thought

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 3: I was never you know, Dragon's guy. It was everyone

14
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 3: was like, oh, come on, no, but I and a

15
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 3: lot of it has to do with the kid, obviously,

16
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 3: but I I could watch those films over and over again, endlessly,

17
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 3: almost on a loop.

18
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 2: Sometimes I end up doing exactly that usually surround this

19
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 2: time of year. So now that's true. Christmas e time,

20
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 2: that's true.

21
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 3: And then they're also I think it's gonna start, is

22
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 3: it in the spring, or whether there's there's a you know,

23
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 3: a new version where they're doing a series like I don't.

24
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 2: Know if it's Netflix, Apple or HBO? Is it HBO? Okay,

25
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 2: when's that supposed to drop? We sure, but we have

26
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: like castings. You can go in and see who's hairy.

27
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's gonna be Yeah, it's gonna be tough

28
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 3: to match what they did, but I understand why they

29
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: would want to try.

30
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 2: What do we got.

31
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: Time now for the obligatory Kevin Faulness Minnesota wild mentioned.

32
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 2: And Wilder on a roll. Corella Harr's in back to

33
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: Poldia try tipped why by art second? Frock fifteen seconds

34
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: to go in overtime? So Corella up top, Boldie one touchback,

35
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: Superelo process.

36
00:01:51,600 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 4: Caprices do it over time.

37
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 2: They're definitely on a roll. It's the thing I warn

38
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 2: you about though, when you get behind in this league.

39
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 2: Plenty of hockey left to play. We're not even to

40
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: the new year mark, but it's hard to climb in

41
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 2: this league just by the nature of the point. So

42
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: the while they have to keep it up. Some line news,

43
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: My guy Danila Yurov is gonna get his big shot tomorrow.

44
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 2: You're excited about the top line, I'm fired up about it.

45
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 2: He gets to set, are they going to give him

46
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 2: more than five minutes? Well, that's exactly what I was

47
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: gonna say. If he struggles early, I really really really

48
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 2: don't want this to be a you give him two shifts.

49
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 2: Well they didn't produce. So Ryan Hartman, welcome back aboard.

50
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 2: I would like to see this whole game go through

51
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 2: and see what happens, and I would like multiple games.

52
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: But e'rerov Center's Caprice Off Zucarello that starts later on.

53
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: We'll talk to Louis in more detail about it. That shot,

54
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 2: to me, one of the most dangerous things about a

55
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 2: capriso is I feel like he's all ready in the

56
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: act of shooting at just as the puck arrives.

57
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 3: That's how fast, and it's off of his stick and

58
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 3: into the net. I think that's one of his underrated skills,

59
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 3: is the the you know, the quickness with which he

60
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 3: gets the shot off and they take care of business. Now,

61
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 3: did did the opponent get jobbed on the call that

62
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 3: gave us the extra skater in ot?

63
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 2: What do you think? What do you make of that?

64
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 2: Was it TICKI taki? Yeah, a little bit, but they

65
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 2: were calling it that way all games. You're saying, okay, so,

66
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 2: but it was take I would have been upsetifyed with

67
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: them Wolves. They had a very impressive win against let's

68
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 2: see the Mavericks ninety six. They get the Wizards tomorrow

69
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 2: at Target Center. Your thoughts.

70
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 3: Jaden McDaniels now listed as questionable for tomorrow's game with

71
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 3: a wrist. Don't know much about that. Don't even remember

72
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 3: any particular play in the in the game. As we

73
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 3: talked about earlier, they are in a good mode of

74
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: taking out the teams they're supposed to take. The Mavericks

75
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 3: are a mess. They've got about eight people out hurt.

76
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 3: Their offense is a disaster and right now, and Minnesota

77
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: took full advantage of it from almost the beginning of

78
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 3: the game. I think the Wolves are sitting at nine

79
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 3: to five.

80
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: At this point.

81
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 3: But again, you're you're you're going to have to start occasionally,

82
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,559
Speaker 3: you know, beating better teams.

83
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 5: Now.

84
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 3: The next game, that was the first game back when

85
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 3: Edwards was just coming back from injury. Maybe that's part

86
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 3: of the story. By the way, tom Creen is scheduled

87
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 3: to join us tomorrow at three fifteen. He's just been

88
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 3: in town for some games. I think now he's back

89
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 3: at home in Florida, but he's going to give us

90
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 3: some of his wit and wisdom at three fifteen tomorrow.

91
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 3: But they're offensively, they look very good, and they're again

92
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 3: Historically this team has tended to let inferior teams hang.

93
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 3: I don't even know would have been impossible to let

94
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 3: Dallas hang. They're such a mess right now with so

95
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 3: many people out hurt. But they're putting teams out of

96
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 3: their misd read more quickly. That's the first step in

97
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 3: wherever they intend to go, and I know they obviously

98
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 3: intend to try to go to some place far away

99
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 3: past the conference finals.

100
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 2: You mentioned McDaniel's questionable with a left wrist, brain available,

101
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 2: Dante DiVincenzo face mask he will probably be wearing, but

102
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 2: at least you know he's playing out Freeman Shannon Jr.

103
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna go with Zakarski. That's good enough for me.

104
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 2: We'll go. Did you watch Monday Night Football? And if

105
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: you did, I'm sorry. I didn't watch a lot of it, man,

106
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 2: I I didn't. I And I'm one of those guys

107
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: who love Pete Carroll being back in the league. But

108
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 2: maybe the Raiders are beyond even his coaching expertise at

109
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 2: this point, because they're just I mean it, I know

110
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 2: what Tom Brady's gonna do, but it looks like they're

111
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: going to have to do something fairly, fairly drastic. And

112
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: who's the veteran quarterback starter for them? And Gino? Yeah, Gino.

113
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 3: I know people kind of celebrated his resurrection a year ago,

114
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 3: but I he looks pretty done to me. I they

115
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 3: just look like they need so much help at so

116
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 3: many places. And you know, Dallas offensively actually looks quite good.

117
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,239
Speaker 3: Whether they're capable again, same thing of beating better teams,

118
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: I you know, I don't know, but it was.

119
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: It was a very blog game for a Monday nighter

120
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 2: for sure. It feels like football is the hardest to

121
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 2: get out of the basement. It just takes. It just

122
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 2: takes a lot of players, There's no question. An interesting

123
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 2: note out of My Night Football, though, is that Ceedee

124
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: Lamb and George Pickens were kept on the bench for

125
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,679
Speaker 2: the first series of Monday Nights. You know, their thirty

126
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 2: three sixteen wins. Yes, apparently this is quote from Schottenheimer.

127
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 2: There are some things that were missed, so a conversation

128
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,239
Speaker 2: with those guys. So had a conversation with those guys

129
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 2: and that was easy. Oh oh boy, big slap on

130
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 2: the wrist. Things were missed, so they get to sit

131
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:53,679
Speaker 2: out one series.

132
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 3: It's quite a powerful punishment and really laying the hammer down. Yeah,

133
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 3: I guess that does fall into the classification of why

134
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 3: even bother who got just got suspended for a game

135
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 3: for spitting on an opponent?

136
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 2: Chase? Yeah, the game right, And I.

137
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 3: Think it's basically essentially it's a it's a five hundred

138
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 3: thousand dollars loss to him. That's the second spinning incident

139
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 3: we've had. What's going on with the spinning? Is that

140
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 3: making a comeback or are we just noticing it more

141
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 3: because the video. I don't have any idea.

142
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 2: It's very odd. There's cameras everywhere. Yeah, that's true. Sam.

143
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 2: Chase is appealing the suspension. Someone told Chefty the appeal

144
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 2: will be hurt and ruled by what do you appeal?

145
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 2: Isn't it on? Isn't he on? Isn't he shown spitting?

146
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 2: Or am I wrong? And he said postgame he didn't spit.

147
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 2: The footage clearly shows him spit, So yeah, that's that's

148
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 2: a I think most of us will agree that's a

149
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 2: bridge too far. Whatever you feel like, however you feel

150
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 2: like you're being transgressed, Uh, it is worth noting. And

151
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 2: maybe we'll do this at five fifteen, because Louis, I

152
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 2: don't think it's so five thirty. We haven't talked about

153
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 2: the latest Draymond Green incident with a fan that.

154
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 3: Is rather curious, not surprising in his case, but rather curious.

155
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 3: So maybe we will indeed save that.

156
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 2: I guess I'm doing my best four letter Network impersonation

157
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 2: because I've talked about the Cowboys and now we go here.

158
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 2: Lebron is reportedly aiming to return tonight against the Jazz.

159
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 2: According to Shams, does this move the meter for you

160
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: at all, that Lebron is finally back?

161
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: Well, I think, you know, I mean, it's good to

162
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 3: have him back. I mean the Lakers are actually played well,

163
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 3: they've got a decent record without him. But I mean

164
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 3: he can as far as we know, he can still play, right,

165
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think it's a I'm curious to see.

166
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 3: I don't view the Lakers as a contender by any means,

167
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 3: but and we all assume this is going to be

168
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 3: his last year.

169
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean he's missed. How long has this

170
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 2: season going on? Close to a month right now.

171
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 3: On the other hand, you say, when you're that age,

172
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 3: I think a certain measure of load management is understandable.

173
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 3: I'm less offended by load management when it's somebody who's

174
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 3: in his forties and has put in a lot of

175
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 3: mileage in a lot of time than it is when it's,

176
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 3: you know, somebody twenty seven years old or thirty years old,

177
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 3: or whatever the case may be.

178
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,839
Speaker 2: One more clickie. It sounds like Aaron Rodgers is gonna

179
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 2: miss surgery, So now it's kind of Tomin didn't rule

180
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 2: out Aaron Rodgers for the game against the Bears. The

181
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 2: status will determined later this week, so he avoids injury

182
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 2: and avoids surgery to that left wrist.

183
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 3: Ay, rog, did you say they're playing the Bears this week? Yes, yeah,

184
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 3: that's what I thought.

185
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 2: And where is that game?

186
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:35,959
Speaker 5: Do we know?

187
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 2: Good question? I don't know.

188
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 3: Bears are about to embark upon a much tougher part

189
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 3: of their schedule. Okay, they've got a lot of division

190
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 3: games coming. I think they got the Lions and so

191
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 3: I still can't imagine that at any point this season

192
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 3: they'd be in first place and that, which is what

193
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 3: they are for the moment after the Lions disappointing performance

194
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 3: over the weekend.

195
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: So a Roge, how do we evaluate how he's played

196
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 2: this year? Great?

197
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 3: I think serviceably though they've done They've handled him right

198
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 3: where they're not asking me to do too much, they're

199
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 3: not asking me, and he's he's doing a lot of

200
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 3: short passes. If you like short passes, a Roger is

201
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 3: pretty much your guy. So that's okay for me.

202
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,319
Speaker 2: I have it there. It is no bonus bucks.

203
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 3: I don't believe this week we'll get to that Draymond

204
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,839
Speaker 3: story and a couple of other texts in just a

205
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 3: matter of minutes and then Luigi, as I said at

206
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 3: five thirty, Good.

207
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 2: The Fan welcomes Trans Siberian Orchestra for two amazing shows

208
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 2: at Target Center December twenty eighth, three and seven thirty pm.

209
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 2: Tickets on sale now. You can blete show details, including

210
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 2: a link to buy tickets kfan dot com. Keep we're calending.

211
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 3: We've talked over the years about fan deportment and what

212
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 3: is how far? What is the line when it comes

213
00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 3: to heckling of players and or coaches, but but usually players,

214
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 3: and there's I think, well, I'd like to think there's

215
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 3: a consensus on this that if you get into language,

216
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 3: and if you get into race, you're getting if you're misogynistic,

217
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 3: the whole bit. There's not a lot of negotiation that

218
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 3: needs to go on the team or I guess security

219
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 3: can boot that individual pretty simply and pretty easily, and

220
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 3: that up up to that point. You pay your ticket

221
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 3: and you can get you know, pretty harsh from time

222
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 3: to time. And the story, I guess the debate has

223
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 3: come up again because of the news surrounding a confrontation

224
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 3: between Draymond Green and a fan.

225
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 2: This was in New Orleans.

226
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 3: The Warriors were playing the Pelicans, who were a mess

227
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 3: by the way, And what's interesting is that in this case, well,

228
00:11:58,600 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 3: let me back up and give you a little more

229
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 3: detail if you're not all that familiar with the story.

230
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 2: I think this was Sunday.

231
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 3: So the fan who was I believe seated, is it baseline,

232
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 3: it's definitely front row was chanting at Draymond. Angel Reese

233
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 3: kept us invoking the name of Angel Reese, the WNBA player,

234
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 3: and at one point Draymond then walks up over to

235
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 3: him and kind of gets in his face. Now, there

236
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 3: was nothing physical between the two. They both handled that

237
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 3: part of it. Well, there was a security person over there.

238
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 3: I don't believe the fan was thrown out, and Draymond

239
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 3: kind of misled a little bit the confrontation because when

240
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 3: he talked about it after the game, all he said

241
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 3: was he just kept calling me a woman. It was

242
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 3: a good joke at first, but keep calling me a woman. Well,

243
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 3: what he can left out was that he was this

244
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 3: fan was referring to a specific woman in this case,

245
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 3: as we said of Angel Reese, and the bit was

246
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 3: you can decide for yourself whether this is clever, or

247
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 3: whether this is worth the trouble, or how far do

248
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 3: you go with it. Green had missed five straight shots,

249
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 3: and he'd rebounded the first four of those misses, so,

250
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 3: you know, kind of the joke among you know, Angel

251
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 3: WNA fans and I Angel Reese is can't shoot, but

252
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 3: really good about grabbing your own rebounds. Right, That's the

253
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 3: bit for whatever it's worth. And ultimately, the NBA has

254
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 3: apparently warned Draymond Green, although they haven't find him, so

255
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 3: I what the warning entailed, I'm not exactly sure. I

256
00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 3: don't know if I've see if there's even any d

257
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 3: details that are being offered, But the stories I'm looking

258
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 3: at just notes that the NBA has warned Green. Presumably

259
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 3: it would be you don't get you should not confront

260
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 3: if indeed that was the exchange, and I tend to agree.

261
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 3: Now part of this is it's Draymond. So because it's

262
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 3: Draymond Green, it's hard to give him the benefit of

263
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 3: the doubt because of how often he goes off to

264
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 3: the to the extent that he does, and for that reason,

265
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 3: it's like I said, you just sort of shake your

266
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 3: head and you go, Draymond, Okay, here we go again.

267
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 3: And because Draymond has the you know, these illusions that

268
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 3: he's perfectly capable of handling himself and he's not frustrated

269
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: when a lot of the things he's done has been

270
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 3: related to frustrations on the court, things not going his

271
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 3: way on the court, et cetera. After the game, Green

272
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 3: commended the referee, Courtney Kirkland for handling the interaction.

273
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 5: I got it.

274
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 2: I've heard him over and over again. You handled it well.

275
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 3: Don't get yourself in trouble. No trouble, I'll take care

276
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: of it. That's what Draymond claimed that Kirkland told him.

277
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 3: Now again, I don't know what Kirkland said to the fan.

278
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 3: The fans name is Sam Green, a Pelicans fan, and

279
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 3: he's quoted in an Associated Press piece about, you know,

280
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 3: when he went with the with the the chant that

281
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 3: he did, and the sequencing of it as well. But

282
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 3: I don't believe he was thrown out of the game.

283
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 3: I don't think he should have been thrown out of

284
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 3: the game. Would I've done it, probably not. But I

285
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 3: don't think this is you know, we we got to

286
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 3: be careful because I think what's happened is the trend

287
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 3: has been you quote players and.

288
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 2: You say, well, there's only so far.

289
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 3: You know, the players should not have to stand for

290
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 3: certain things, and so the benefit of the doubt has

291
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 3: tended to go towards the player. I get that to

292
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 3: a degree, but I think each case has to be

293
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 3: examined individually, and I don't think that means automatically we

294
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 3: have to assume that the that the fan, you know,

295
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 3: stepped over the line, and in this case, I'm not

296
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 3: sure that that that fan did. The dangerous thing, obviously,

297
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 3: is because of the proximity of the court.

298
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 2: It's the way basketball is set up. You're worried.

299
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 3: You have the concern, the obvious concern about it escalating

300
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 3: about well, what if the fan is not as cool

301
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 3: as this guy was and decides to shove Draymond. And

302
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 3: that's I'm sure largely why the NBA says you can't

303
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 3: be going over there, especially when in this case there

304
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 3: doesn't seem to be any indication that there were any

305
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 3: racist talents involved or anything like that. We can talk

306
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 3: about whether it's sexist to name a female athlete. In

307
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 3: this case, it was about what her game represents that

308
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 3: he's playing off of.

309
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 2: It's as simple as that.

310
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 3: But you know, Draymond has a way despite his history

311
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 3: of making these stories about him trying to stand tall

312
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 3: and him actually being more mature and and and trying to.

313
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 2: You know, reason through these things.

314
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 3: We have pretty good experience here knowing that there are

315
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 3: times where reason has nothing to do. As good a

316
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 3: basketball player as Draymond Green is with his approach, you know,

317
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 3: with the way he goes about his business. So uh,

318
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 3: I I'm actually encouraged at the NBA. Now, I don't

319
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 3: know if a fine was necessary, and in this case,

320
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 3: they didn't find the player, and I'd be curious to

321
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 3: know exactly what the warning was. But I'm glad that

322
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 3: the I don't think in this case the player or

323
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 3: the fan has lost his seats or it rises to

324
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 3: that level. Often it does, and then it should be easy.

325
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 3: You're you're done, you're banned from this arena, you're banned

326
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 3: for a year, whatever the case may be. But in

327
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 3: this case, I, you know, I just don't think there's

328
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 3: anything here that is worthy of the danger that's that's

329
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:53,639
Speaker 3: that that the dangerous door that's opened when a player

330
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 3: then decides to get in the face of that individual.

331
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 3: Westbrook's done this a few times too, and it's become

332
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 3: it's too easy to put all of it, I think

333
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 3: on the fan again, depending on exactly what the fan

334
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 3: said this to me. I think the league sent a

335
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 3: good message here where they're not taking it out in

336
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 3: the fan. They're not suggesting that the fan really did anything,

337
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 3: or at least they're saying, no matter what line he

338
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 3: came up to, if you get in his face, we

339
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 3: can't allow it because that is asking for difficulty and

340
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,959
Speaker 3: the possibility of escalation, and that's what, obviously you are

341
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 3: trying to avoid, and of all people to seem or

342
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 3: sound wronged it's admittedly I think should be tougher to

343
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 3: stomach it when it comes from Draymond Green. We've laid

344
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 3: out the litany of stories in his case, the degree

345
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 3: to which his head coaches had to hold his nose

346
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 3: because Green's a very good player. But the fact is

347
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 3: his history as in terms of not controlling his emotions,

348
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 3: as I think, kind of speaks for pretty much speaks

349
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 3: for itself. If you have questions for Louis, If if

350
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 3: you have questions for Luigi, perfect time to hit the

351
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 3: bratch on brian canfan text line. That number is six

352
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 3: four six eighty six. Are you trying to I mean,

353
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 3: are you getting into this club? Are you starting to

354
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 3: believe that maybe we have figured some stuff out and

355
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 3: we might well be on our way to a you know,

356
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 3: pretty successful regular season after a very slow start. You

357
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 3: may have questions at the college level, You may have

358
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 3: questions at the high school level. You may have travel questions.

359
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 3: Luigi's very good at that because no one travels the

360
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 3: globe quite like Luigi. So all those on the table

361
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 3: brat Shawn brian canfan text line that is six four

362
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 3: six eight six six four six eighty six.

363
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: Louis is coming up next year in the fan Welsey

364
00:19:55,680 --> 00:20:09,679
Speaker 2: Sneaks around the World that ride down in the World,

365
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 2: brought to you by Camps.

366
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 3: As always in Man, the questions and observations are coming

367
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 3: in fast and furious for Luigi, who joins us now

368
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 3: via the Connectico Water Systems hotline.

369
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 2: You are back from Owahu. Is that correct? Back in Florida?

370
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 5: That's right? Three days too short?

371
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is too short. That's a quick turn back

372
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 2: and forth. But the beauty of it is there will

373
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 2: always be another Hawaii trip for you, so you don't

374
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 2: have to be necessarily all of that disappointed.

375
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 3: No problems at the airport, Uh, with the infrastructure, everything

376
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 3: worked for you. There were no nightmare stories. As we

377
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 3: get the airlines back at full speed.

378
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 5: Well, just like the airlines were seeing any flights out

379
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 5: of the country or out of the domestic. Yes, we're

380
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 5: gonna have any problems. The regional stuff that had a

381
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 5: lot of problems. Unfortunately for me it wasn't regional, so.

382
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 2: We had definitely not That's good.

383
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 3: All right, let's get this out of the way, because

384
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 3: among the questions that have come in, uh, there's this one.

385
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 3: This one definitely got my attention from the bratch on

386
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 3: Bryant k f A N text line. Louise, what are

387
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 3: Lewis thoughts on JJ McCarthy. Everybody is talking about the

388
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy story. Luigi what what what would you like

389
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 3: to add to the equation.

390
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 5: Well, everybody gets frustrated, you know when you lose, and

391
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 5: I can understand why, and and you see flashes of

392
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 5: really high talent and then you see mistakes and you're

393
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 5: hopeful that the mistakes are just mistakes of youth and

394
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,360
Speaker 5: rookies only had five games, and you have to say

395
00:21:54,440 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 5: that what worries means more than the mistakes is the

396
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 5: field for the game. Yeah, and I see that because

397
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 5: you know the one thing about great quarterbacks, you know

398
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 5: how to when they have to pass the ball, the

399
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 5: football hard or different speed, you know, different speeds, and

400
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 5: I haven't seen him do that. That's the one thing

401
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 5: that I get surprised about, because he can already fire

402
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,479
Speaker 5: it and sometimes guys only fifteen yards away from him

403
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 5: and puts it right through his hands. It's the field

404
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 5: that bothers me more than anything else, because he does,

405
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 5: have no doubt, he's got great arm strength and he

406
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 5: can already throw a ball and he can run with

407
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 5: the ball. It's always the field for the game, like

408
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 5: when should I run or not run? When should I

409
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 5: throw a soft pass or not soft pass? And you

410
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 5: want to attribute that to being a rookie, but it's

411
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 5: still when you have a field for the game. Even

412
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 5: as a rookie, sometimes some of those mistakes don't show up.

413
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, we were talking much earlier in the show.

414
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 2: Right off the top of the program.

415
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 3: A good example of exactly what you're talking talking about

416
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 3: was same scenario twenty years twenty five years ago. Now,

417
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 3: second year quarterback who did not play in his first

418
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 3: year after being drafted high by the Vikings, Dante Culpepper.

419
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 3: From the beginning he showed that feel. Now, he wasn't perfect.

420
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 3: He threw some I think sixteen interceptions his first season.

421
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 3: They also threw thirty two touchdowns, ran very well and

422
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 3: had a great feel. We were talking about that with

423
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,360
Speaker 3: Chris Carter yesterday, and I think you raise an important

424
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 3: point because feel, you know, one thing is you know

425
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 3: fundamentals and footwork, and those things can be worked on

426
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 3: and improved, but feel is one of those deals.

427
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 2: You either got it or you don't.

428
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 3: To a certain extent, I think and that why is

429
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 3: why I think you raise a fair point that that's

430
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 3: the bigger thing to watch, the bigger concern, because feel

431
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 3: is more than just mechanics.

432
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 5: It is, and the great players had that in all sports. Yep,

433
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 5: you can call it fields. Sometimes you know, it's just

434
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 5: a perception that hits the anti patient, but it's just

435
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 5: an awareness in the game of how you should be

436
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,879
Speaker 5: playing the game. And there's a lot of things that

437
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 5: go into that field, but those are probably the most

438
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 5: important things because that gives you, that gives you extra

439
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 5: time to do what you want to do. When you

440
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 5: understand the game pretty well, you don't feel as rushed.

441
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 5: The great players never feel rushed as an ordinary player.

442
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 5: And that's part of the field for the game. And

443
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 5: that's what I'm getting to about McCarthy, and that's what

444
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 5: you'd like to see. If you see the feel there,

445
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 5: and you're still going to make mistakes. Everybody makes mistakes,

446
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 5: but you're going to be able to learn from those

447
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 5: mistakes make them less. But you have a better chance

448
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 5: of that coming quickly when you've got a better feel

449
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:49,640
Speaker 5: for the game.

450
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about your favorite hockey team, the

451
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 2: Wild Are we starting as as this club starting to.

452
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 5: Figure it out, do you think, well, they're figuring it

453
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 5: out the way they're playing. Unfortunately, they now run into

454
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 5: another rash of injuries and then yeah, it's you know,

455
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 5: it's gott to worry and you start getting four guys

456
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 5: out of the lineup. It's not that the lineup so

457
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 5: deep that they can afford those kind of losses. Fortunately,

458
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 5: Wolfstead's been leading away and then Guss came back with

459
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 5: another good game, and so they're not giving up more

460
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 5: than two goals and that's given a chance to win

461
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 5: all the time. It is difficult to get to three

462
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 5: goals for them, but they haven't able to do that,

463
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 5: and you see going six to one and one. And

464
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 5: the good thing about it, when you start winning like that,

465
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 5: you start feeling you're going to win, and you're you're

466
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 5: you're playing with much more confidence and you're playing much

467
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 5: more freely, and and that's what they're doing. It's going

468
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 5: to be interesting to see when there if it works

469
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 5: out this way, because both Rossi and Hartman being out,

470
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 5: that looks like E'rerope might get a chance to go

471
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 5: on that first line. I know it's going to be

472
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 5: different for them, but I like that. I like the

473
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 5: fact that he's getting a chance to play with two

474
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 5: very clever players because I like Europe. Maybe I like

475
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 5: Europe more than they liked him, because I didn't even

476
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 5: want him to sit out a couple of games. If

477
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 5: they've set him out, I think that he's he's finding

478
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 5: in his way, but he's finding his way quick enough

479
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 5: where he looks like he's always involved on the ice.

480
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 5: He works hard, he works deep. When he's playing center,

481
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 5: he helps so down low, which I like a lot.

482
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 5: And then he's got a couple of goals, and he's

483
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,199
Speaker 5: scrappy around the net. He he's not afraid to get

484
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 5: in front of the net and fight for puck. Say,

485
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 5: I like a lot of things about him. I think that,

486
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 5: you know, he's just got to play more, and when

487
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 5: he plays with better players like this, I'm going to

488
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 5: be interested to see if he can produce even more.

489
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 5: Although you know, you got to be happy what he's

490
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:48,199
Speaker 5: done this far.

491
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 3: I got him with thirteen in terms of goals, giving

492
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 3: up thirteen in the last eight games, and to me

493
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 3: that it starts there, because as we talked early in

494
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 3: the season, they were routinely giving up four or five

495
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 3: six goals a game early and you know it's true

496
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 3: of any team, but certainly I think this team that's not,

497
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 3: you know, blessed with four lines of great offensive talent.

498
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 3: The basics you got to take care of, and that

499
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 3: is you got to be a combination of good defensively

500
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 3: in front of the net and with the goaltender as well.

501
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 3: And that's where this thing starts to me, is there

502
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 3: they're just simply not giving up the number of goals

503
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 3: that they were earlier in the season.

504
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 5: That's so true, and that's the reason why they're winning.

505
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 5: It was scary early on. You're right. I think they

506
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 5: had about four or five games stretch for the average

507
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 5: about five guys and you're not going to beat anybody

508
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 5: playing like that. And and to say, okay, that's not them,

509
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 5: but a long way down from five to two that

510
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 5: you have to cut three goals off a game, and

511
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 5: they've been able to do that, which really gives you

512
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 5: a good feeling about the way they're playing right now.

513
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 5: And they they were actually was scary the way they

514
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 5: were playing that in that stretch because even though you

515
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 5: start seeing it's early in the season, you're losing two

516
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 5: points and all of a sudden five games at ten points,

517
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 5: and you know, teams don't make up ten points that easily,

518
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 5: and so they were putting themselves in a bad position

519
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 5: and they snapped out of it and left, you know,

520
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 5: the six one on one left the games. That's really good.

521
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 5: And now the one thing about it, you know, it's

522
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 5: making them feel better about themselves. They're feeling more confident.

523
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 5: Unfortunately for them, they get a real good Carolina team

524
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 5: to come in and play against them when they're going

525
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 5: to be maybe foreman out of the lineup because Carolina

526
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 5: is a real well coached team. They're a fast team.

527
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 5: They're not overly physical, that's a good part about it,

528
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 5: but they do check well. Even though they're not physical.

529
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 5: They use their bodies well and they can score goals.

530
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 5: And they got two great players. You know, always a

531
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 5: terrific player there. Jarvis has been a good scorer. Jordan

532
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 5: Stall has always been a great checker. Their defense is mobile, big,

533
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 5: and they move the puck so right now, whether they

534
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 5: like it or not, I think their weakness is still

535
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 5: in goal. I haven't seen their goaltending really be the

536
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 5: reason why they win games this year. And so I

537
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 5: think that the Wild got a chances to get opportunities

538
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 5: and get in front of the net and fight for

539
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 5: pucks and get some rebounds or screens there.

540
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 3: N guy texted this much earlier in the show. He writes,

541
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 3: iHeart radio is coming in loud and clear from the

542
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 3: beach in MAUI ask Louis, who should be our number

543
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 3: one goaltender?

544
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 5: Well, you know we're not that far in the season

545
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 5: where you go number one. The number one guy's got

546
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 5: to be the guy that's playing the best, right Donalds

547
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 5: Wallstead and I think that no matter who's number one,

548
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 5: you don't want to get the number two guy out

549
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 5: for six seventy eight games. You want to get him

550
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 5: in there every fifth game, but i'd see preferably every

551
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 5: third or fourth game, and just to keep them sharp

552
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 5: in case the number one goes flat on you. But

553
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 5: right now, you know, if you're going to go for,

554
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 5: say a three game run, you got to you gotta

555
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 5: bet and Walsteed right now because he's he's been able

556
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,479
Speaker 5: to do that. Now if during that three game run

557
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 5: he's not doing it, then you make the change. But

558
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 5: he's the guy you.

559
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 2: Could lean on, uh there to a certain extentment you

560
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 2: perhaps have already answered this question, but I'll throw it

561
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 2: out there anywhere. This is from Steve in uh A

562
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 2: South Saint Paul big fan. Can you talk some sense

563
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 2: into who makes the choice about year off getting more

564
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 2: ice time? They need to give hit that guy more time,

565
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 2: which I know that court.

566
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 5: I I just I'm just surprised that they don't. I

567
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 5: I he's shown enough flashes where you've got to start giving.

568
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 5: Like the horse used to, gotta give them his reins,

569
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 5: let him go, you know, let him run. And uh

570
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 5: I I know when I was doing the four games there,

571
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 5: and I'm not gonna say what I'd talked to, but

572
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 5: one of the assistants I'm talking and and the guys, well,

573
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 5: you know, he made a mistake here. Everybody makes mistakes.

574
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 5: But just because they're young doesn't mean you keep one

575
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 5: of the lineup. That guy's got a way to grow,

576
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 5: you know, he can grow. And that's why I think

577
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 5: you have to. They're on a fine line now, and

578
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 5: I can understand why they're Before they were really up

579
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 5: against it, when they were losing, they were in a

580
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 5: very good position. And then you're gonna be You're gonna

581
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 5: bet on veterans unless they're really playing really poorly because

582
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 5: you think that they're prone to less mistakes. They know

583
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 5: what you're doing. But I think now, I really believe

584
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 5: right now they feel really confident and that's why they

585
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 5: moved them up to the first line. He's earned his

586
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 5: way there. And that's the best part about it. They're

587
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 5: not giving him anything. This kid's earned his way there.

588
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 5: He's earned a chance to play different positions. And you're

589
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 5: really you got to start getting some younger guys in

590
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 5: the lineup. Why you got a cold here, Yeah, getting

591
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 5: some younger guys, you know, playing time because while now

592
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 5: they're forwards are older, for the most part, they get

593
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 5: older guys and you've got to start breaking people in

594
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 5: to get some mice time. Who's going to be there

595
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 5: if they're not ready right now when somebody goes down.

596
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 5: So you've got to have somebody I was on the

597
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 5: cusp that not only could play, but could play and produce.

598
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 3: Can you ask me if he's ever been to Oslo, Norway?

599
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 3: And if so, is there a restaurant that is kent

600
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 3: is can't miss that I should go to. I'm going

601
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 3: he writes, this is a texture. Let's see this is

602
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 3: tom He says, he's going in mid January.

603
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been there and I was on the cruise.

604
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 5: I ate in the restaurant so I don't remember the name,

605
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 5: but it was on the second floor. Was really good,

606
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 5: but most of the meals I had, and that I

607
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 5: took one of those crewis up above the Arctic Circle

608
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 5: and it was it was beautiful. It was a great,

609
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 5: great time in Norway's a beautiful area, especially all those

610
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 5: shorts when you go through them. But one time in

611
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 5: the restaurant up there, it was good enough, but not

612
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 5: good enough that I got to remember because I wasn't

613
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 5: going back anyway.

614
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 2: Question college hockey related.

615
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 3: I took my son writes uh six one two guy

616
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 3: to his first go for hockey game Saturday night. Great game,

617
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 3: he enjoyed it, but I spent much of the time

618
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 3: explaining how cool it used to be when the house

619
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 3: was packed full of Gopher fans.

620
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,959
Speaker 2: Saturday was only about half full. So disappointing.

621
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 3: Is it still the big ten or what needs to

622
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 3: happen to bring or what needs to happen to bring

623
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 3: back the old crowds in that building.

624
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 2: It's a sub you've explored before.

625
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 3: I thought I thought it was getting better and I

626
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 3: don't know if there was something specific about that night,

627
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: but can you speak to that issue which comes up

628
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 3: every once in a while.

629
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that there's a couple of things there.

630
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 5: First of all, the crowds were back. You were back

631
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 5: in full when when the Gophers were making runs to

632
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 5: the frozen four. And and definitely you know I was.

633
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 5: I was in the sixteen playoff group. They were they

634
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 5: were packed, they were full. And then this year they

635
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 5: got off to the slow start. Now you get off

636
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 5: the slow start, and they had the eleven guys three place,

637
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 5: and that takes a real toll on you. On top

638
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 5: of that, the opponent was l l i U at

639
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 5: Long Island University, which I'm going to tell you I

640
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 5: hadn't even heard of until I saw them earlier in

641
00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 5: a year playing against Boston College. I mean I saw

642
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 5: the scores. I didn't watch them playing, and I saw

643
00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 5: them a couple of weekends play team I like Boston College.

644
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 5: One was Boston College, can re call the other one?

645
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 5: And I'm saying, who is this? I never heard of

646
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 5: him before, so all of a sudden he got the team.

647
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 5: I didn't even realize you were on our schedule. So

648
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 5: I can understand, you know, coming to Minnesota to play Minnesota.

649
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 5: People think like I thought. And in fact, that night

650
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 5: I went up for dinner. I didn't watch the game,

651
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 5: and my wife says, or were they playing? Oh, they're

652
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 5: playing the little sisters of the poor. Well they weren't

653
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 5: little sisters of the poor, because they ended up winning

654
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 5: six too. Yeah, the Gophers beat him the next night

655
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 5: six three. I didn't know anything about their team, and apparently,

656
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 5: you know, they got themselves a number of good players

657
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 5: because of all the influtive players. Now there are more

658
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 5: players around since they were able to get a lot

659
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,280
Speaker 5: of juniors come into the US as well from Canada.

660
00:35:55,400 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 5: But if the Gophers start winning, starting to we can

661
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 5: start to win, the Cross will be back there.

662
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 3: Louis, what is your opinion the Gophers going back to

663
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 3: an all Minnesota roster, maybe we could get more nil

664
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 3: for the program.

665
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,800
Speaker 2: We're not going back to that, are we, Luigi? I

666
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 2: past that?

667
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I'm no different with the hockey team

668
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 5: than I am with the football team, basketball team, the

669
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,399
Speaker 5: volleyball team. Give me the best players. I don't care

670
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 5: where they're from. Take them viewed from Hongkong with you

671
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 5: put them in a lineup. You know, I I want

672
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,879
Speaker 5: my teams to win, and whatever it takes to win,

673
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 5: I want to do that. And unfortunately, right now people

674
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 5: don't understand you can't win with all Minnesota players because

675
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,720
Speaker 5: you're not going to get all the good Minnesota players.

676
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 5: If you're getting all the good Minnesota players, you could

677
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 5: be very competitive, but you're going to have kids go

678
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 5: to Wisconsin Bark College, Mankato to lose North Dakota, et cetera.

679
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 5: It just is there's no way for you to get

680
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 5: all them Sorda players because kids have different choices. Plus

681
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,280
Speaker 5: the some of them that's romantic to go out of state.

682
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 5: Of course, different parts of the country. I can understand that.

683
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 5: I mean, I came from Susame area. I didn't even

684
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 5: know where Minnesota was, you know, so that's not going

685
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 5: to happen. So you got to go and get the

686
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 5: best work you can get.

687
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 2: The best and win one hundred percent. Well, maybe you

688
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 2: can remind people say yours are mine, that's yours.

689
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 5: That's buying my wife to finished girlf she's called she's

690
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:29,800
Speaker 5: on the way.

691
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 3: Home, So I reckon, I think that's one of my

692
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,479
Speaker 3: ringtones too. That's why I was confused for a moment.

693
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 3: Remind people the whole you know, Minnesota kids, only that

694
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 3: goes back to Mariucci, right, there was a specific reason

695
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,839
Speaker 3: at it. There was a time where that was big

696
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 3: to him.

697
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 5: Correct, Well, let me tell you it doesn't go back

698
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 5: to Mariucci. Here's and I can tell you this is

699
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 5: better than everybody, because John told me it flucked when

700
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 5: I came down here, Mary, she says. He says. Louis says,

701
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 5: I played with the Chicago Blackhawks. I was the only

702
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 5: American on the team after Brimsick left. He says, and

703
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 5: I have nothing against Canadians. I love the Canadians. I

704
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,879
Speaker 5: played with them. He says. The thing that I want,

705
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 5: he said, we don't play Denver in our league because

706
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 5: Denver gets all that you and those kids are finished junior.

707
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 5: When I was playing with the Govers, I was playing

708
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 5: against guys twenty five years old. And John says, I

709
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,399
Speaker 5: just want the American boy, and especially the Minnesota boy,

710
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 5: to have equal opportunity to play against anybody. So I

711
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 5: will take you know, I took you down as an

712
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 5: eighteen year old, because that's what my kids are coming

713
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 5: from Minnesota. Eighteen years old and if the other teams

714
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 5: in the league, like Denver, if they would just take

715
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,720
Speaker 5: down eighteen year old Canadians, eighteen nineteen year old Canads,

716
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 5: I'd be all right with it. And that's why, you know,

717
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 5: he says, I've had He had Mike Pearson, he had

718
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 5: Mary Williamson, he had Jerry Melnichuck, he roll from thunder

719
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 5: Bay and uh and the Fort Francis, et cetera. So

720
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 5: he took other Canadians before me too. Actually it started

721
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 5: to become all Minnesota with Wu. Yeah, definitely was big,

722
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 5: and he was big, but I you know, I and

723
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 5: Wu was very good friend of mine, and God rested

724
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 5: solely passed away. But I I I told Doggy, I said,

725
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 5: you know, Douggie, I gotta I got a theory, and

726
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 5: I hope I'm wrong that you don't want Canadians or

727
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,280
Speaker 5: anything else here because if you lose, you got an excuse.

728
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 5: And I told him that. I so I can tell

729
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 5: you honestly, and I mean, Doug's a good friend of mine.

730
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,399
Speaker 5: But I said, that's to me, that's not a very

731
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 5: good way to operate a hockey team. You got to

732
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 5: play to win, and you play all America, all the

733
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 5: Minnesotans because they said, oh yeah, but he got these

734
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 5: guys from every other place. He said, I want to

735
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 5: see you wins, don't don't use excuses, and and that's

736
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 5: where it started, you know, to go like that.

737
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's he definitely made it part of his philosophy.

738
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 3: And you know you mentioned it earlier. I'll turn it

739
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 3: the other way, like the idea of you know, for

740
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 3: some kids it's the romantic notion of playing somewhere out

741
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 3: of state. It comes back this way too, you know,

742
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 3: the idea that there might be some kid in Massachusetts who,

743
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 3: for whatever reason, you know, falls in love with the

744
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 3: Gopher hockey history, to deprive him of a chance to

745
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 3: be part of it, that's that's a romance deny too.

746
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 3: That's the way I always looked at it, that there

747
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 3: had to be especially you know in the high in

748
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 3: the Gopher men's hockey heyday. I have to believe there

749
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 3: were there were kids from all over the country in

750
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,720
Speaker 3: hockey background and said, man, I love that history.

751
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 2: I want to go there. I want to be a

752
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 2: part of that tradition.

753
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying you And you're right, there

754
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,919
Speaker 5: were kids for Boston, come here, if you'd ever gone

755
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 5: and recruit them or Michigan. It's just like you know,

756
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 5: white football players go to a certain you know, states

757
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,839
Speaker 5: and go playing on their team, and and and then

758
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 5: you know, he didn't win. And afterwards the thing was

759
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,839
Speaker 5: Herbie won with all Minnesotans. But at the same time,

760
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 5: Herbie was talking to me, who can you give me

761
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,240
Speaker 5: a good guy? Can you give me a good Canadian?

762
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 5: I took Doug Riisebro down. I recruited him when he

763
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,600
Speaker 5: was in he was a junior. Then Herb blew him out.

764
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 5: I was playing in the playoffs for the North Stars.

765
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 5: We were staying the holiday in and Herbie calls me.

766
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,799
Speaker 5: He said, coming over. I got Riiseberg came to town.

767
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 5: You know we're gonna try and sign him. So I

768
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 5: remember talking to Doug Riisebro, who was a junior at

769
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 5: the time. I said, Doug, you know you're a Canadian

770
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 5: like I was a Canadian. It's a great opportunity. And

771
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 5: I said, unless you're drafted high in the first round,

772
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,439
Speaker 5: I said, you got to come here, do you You'll

773
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:54,720
Speaker 5: get an education, you could do this, blah blah blah.

774
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 5: When you know, he gets drafted fifth overall by Montreal.

775
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 5: That's why he went went play in the Canadian farm system.

776
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,400
Speaker 5: Then the Canadian but Riiseburg would have been played for

777
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 5: the golfers.

778
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 2: There you go, see, there you have it.

779
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 5: I mean I tried to get Kenny Dryden and.

780
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 2: I remember that we talked about that when he passed away.

781
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that they were to come here.

782
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 2: Sure, no doubt.

783
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 3: One more question, good, good variety of questions from the

784
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,920
Speaker 3: audience tonight, Dan, Can you ask Louis his advice for

785
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,720
Speaker 3: parents with kids in youth hockey? So many super teams

786
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,799
Speaker 3: and clubs year round. When to specialize in hockey?

787
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,840
Speaker 2: If ever? Gear ice time very expensive? What's the balance

788
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 2: in all of it?

789
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 3: Great to know good perspective is someone who knows what

790
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 3: it takes to be at a high level.

791
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,879
Speaker 2: What will you We've talked about this before. What what's

792
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 2: your best speech to that that texture?

793
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 5: Well, I'd have to say this. You could favor, you know,

794
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 5: playing hockey and doing some extra training and learning in

795
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,440
Speaker 5: the summer, but play others. And I really mean that

796
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 5: because other sports. Really there's a couple of things that

797
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 5: does So we're taking hockey, but this could go for

798
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 5: a football player. Just concentrating football or anything. You've got

799
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 5: to get away from the sport a bit to love

800
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 5: it more, and so you don't get you don't get

801
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 5: frustrated with it, you don't get the sour on it,

802
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 5: you don't get bored with it. And it's great to

803
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 5: play a hockey player playing baseball, you know, hand eyeing baseball,

804
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 5: trying in a baseball you know, to contact in football,

805
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 5: the quickness and jumping in athletic ability basketball. They all

806
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 5: help you become a better athlete. And if you have

807
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 5: the skill to play hockey, it's not going to hurt

808
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 5: you to play other sports and take you're becoming a

809
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 5: better athlete, and you're also getting a variety of stuff

810
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 5: that takes away from any monotony that might sit in

811
00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,800
Speaker 5: there or frustration when you're in your head against the

812
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 5: wall doing the same thing all the time. I really

813
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 5: feel as extremely important to play other sports. And you know,

814
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 5: years ago you probably you could remember, but many people won't.

815
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 5: There was a television show called Superstars. Yeah sure, and

816
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 5: they used to have players from all sports compete in

817
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 5: different events. In fact, I pad into a story once

818
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 5: today I wish I would have done it, putting athletes

819
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 5: in different situations and competing against the general public. This

820
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 5: the athletes were competing against themselves against other athletes. And

821
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 5: you know, hockey players always were first or second or third,

822
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 5: is that right? Other sports? Yeah, and it because they

823
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,839
Speaker 5: played other sports too. The others didn't. But I think

824
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 5: it's really important for the love of the game to

825
00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 5: be as strong and as powerful as you want. To

826
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 5: give the kids an opportunity to do other things so

827
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 5: they don't get tired of it or monotonous or frustrated

828
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 5: with it. And plus and make some better athletes. So

829
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 5: don't give up on and just specialize. When the kid's fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,

830
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 5: I always tell every gump wars and he never played

831
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 5: gold and he was fourteen till us because he never

832
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 5: made a junior eighteen till he was nineteen. You know,

833
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,640
Speaker 5: you you you have time for the kids to develop.

834
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 5: If he's got the skills to play hockey, those skills

835
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 5: will come out. They'll come out. Maybe they'll be a

836
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 5: little later, coming out, you know, at the level you

837
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 5: wanted to be, but not much later. And if he's

838
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 5: got enough, you'll make it.

839
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 2: A seven sixty three. Guy wants to know how much

840
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 2: was ice time in the sue.

841
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Well it wasn't much because we played

842
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 5: outside most of the times said he never he never

843
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 5: skated inside till he could. He killed was fifteen years

844
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,840
Speaker 5: old or someone who just finally able to skate Memorial gardens.

845
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 5: I think we probably had to be about fifty cents ago.

846
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 3: This guy's got to It's probably a night for sure.

847

00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,720
Speaker 3: which is very much appreciated because that's the beauty of Louis.

860
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 3: There's pretty much nothing he can't answer and nothing he

861
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 3: can't talk about, including his own observations on JJ McCarthy.

862
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 3: Everybody has an opinion on the Vikings quarterback. That is

863
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:48,800
Speaker 3: the nature of playing for the number one team in

864
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 3: this town. And it's the nature of playing, of course,

865
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 3: at the most important position for the number one team

866
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 3: in town.

867
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,359

877
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,880
Speaker 3: being done by six six fifteen. The idea that we

878
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 3: have to go all the way to six thirty is

879
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 3: almost I feel like I need I need some load

880
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:01,279

Speaker 2: Is that a regular time start or a later time start?

886
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 2: I guess it will depend on that. It looks like

887

Speaker 2: a later time start. Oh, so then we're not We're

00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 3: anything that we got into with with Luigi.

893
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 2: We had a lot of.

894
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 3: Vikings conversation quarterback conversation early because you really at this point,

895
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,440
Speaker 3: I don't know that you can necessarily get away from it.

896
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,359
Speaker 3: I do want to mention one thing we got into

897
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:49,320
Speaker 3: with Kevin Seaffert, And if you listen, then I appreciate

898
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:51,440
Speaker 3: you listening to entire shows. But people kind of come

899
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 3: and go, and you know, we complain, not me, of course,

900
00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:03,880
Speaker 3: but other people complain incessantly about the need for certain

901
00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 3: rules to be changed in our favorite league, whatever it is,

902
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 3: you know, NHL, NFL, MLB, you name it. I and

903
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,040
Speaker 3: I know this is a source subject because in this

904
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 3: case it worked against the Purple's best chances to win

905
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 3: the game against the Bears. But we've just had another

906
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 3: vivid illustration of a rule change gone good, or a

907
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:37,120
Speaker 3: rule change that has resulted in exactly what the competition

908
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 3: committee hoped it would.

909
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 2: Bring back to the game. I'm old enough to remember.

910
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 3: Long stretches when the kickoff return was an entertaining play,

911
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 3: a real play. There was a viable threat that maybe

912
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 3: you don't get a kickoff return for a touchdown, but

913
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,839
Speaker 3: maybe you get it back to the fifty. Position can

914
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,279
Speaker 3: be shifted, and it was a real football play that

915
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 3: you didn't want to miss. And then obviously you reached

916
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 3: a point where kickers' legs got so strong that they

917
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 3: took all of that out of the game. Basically, I'm

918
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 3: gonna kick through the end zone, I'm gonna kick beyond.

919
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 5: The end zone.

920
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:22,000
Speaker 3: I'm gonna kick into the stands. That's how far I

921
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:24,839
Speaker 3: can kick the ball. And we reached a point where

922
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 3: why even are we even bothering to kick off? So

923
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 3: then the league says, well, what can we do to

924
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,440
Speaker 3: fix it? I told them a year ago what they

925
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,560
Speaker 3: needed to do, and they finally listened, and that was

926
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 3: that you have to that the penalty has to be

927
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,880
Speaker 3: great enough for kicking into the end zone the teams

928
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:47,319
Speaker 3: rethink it. And by that, in my view, you had

929
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:52,719
Speaker 3: you had to give the ball minimum to the to

930
00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 3: the uh the receiving team's thirty five yard line. The

931
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 3: twenty five wasn't gonna be enough. The thirty wasn't gonna

932
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:00,880
Speaker 3: be enough. But if you get it to the thirty

933
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:02,840
Speaker 3: five and you say, go ahead, kick it as far

934
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 3: as you want, man, we're happy for you that you

935
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 3: got the big leg. But they're starting sixty five yards

936
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,399
Speaker 3: from pay dirt and about twenty yards from a field goal.

937
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 2: And that's what they finally did.

938
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:19,839
Speaker 3: And look at the impact, the powerful impact it had

939
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 3: on last Sunday's game two days ago at the People's Stadium,

940
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 3: because you know what I know, nursing a what well

941
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,439
Speaker 3: you know, a less than field goal lead, in other words,

942
00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,320
Speaker 3: a field goal. You give up a field goal, you

943
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,399
Speaker 3: lose the game. Nursing that I think what was the score?

944
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 3: We're up seventeen sixteen. So given that situation, you're going

945
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 3: to kick the ball out and if they're going to

946
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,319
Speaker 3: get the ball at the twenty twenty five yard line,

947
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 3: who cares. You'll take your chances on that. And the

948
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 3: other way you could do it is you could squib it.

949
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 3: But now you can't squib it because it's got a

950
00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 3: land in the landing zone or you will be similarly punished.

951
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,960
Speaker 3: So the Vikings did still have the choice. They could

952
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 3: have kicked it deep. And I know there's some people

953
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,480
Speaker 3: out there that think they should have. I don't agree,

954
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 3: but the rule change made this a tougher call, and

955
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:19,839
Speaker 3: it then made more likely exactly the scenario that got

956
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,239
Speaker 3: played out. And again, from the Vikings fan standpoint, it

957
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 3: was a disaster, but it's an exciting play. From the

958
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 3: Bears fan standpoint, incredibly exciting play ball gets back past

959
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 3: midfield or around there, they get a few runs, and

960
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 3: suddenly they're in position for the game winning field goal.

961
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:39,920
Speaker 3: So it's like a textbook example of how a successful

962
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 3: rule change can indeed bring back a once vital part

963
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 3: of the game into the game in a way that

964
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 3: it had just been flat out eliminated. It's just that

965
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 3: I had not existed the last several years. It was

966
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 3: the most meaningless play in football, and for a lot

967
00:52:57,760 --> 00:52:59,239
Speaker 3: of people it was I got extra time to go

968
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 3: to the bathroom, I got extra time to grab the nachos,

969
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 3: or whatever the case may be.

970
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:03,520
Speaker 2: I don't want to look at it.

971
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 3: There's nothing to see here, so why bother h But

972
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 3: that's the that that caused that rule change, caused the

973
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:15,040
Speaker 3: chain of events that ultimately led in this case to

974
00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 3: the Vikings losing the game. But it did lead to

975
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 3: an exciting play. Whether you're on the good side of

976
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 3: that or the bad side of it. So often even

977
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,879
Speaker 3: best case, you know, intention I best intentions don't work

978
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:34,399
Speaker 3: out in terms of bringing back a long forgotten part

979
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,680
Speaker 3: of the game. Because we've had that, We've got that

980
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 3: funny formation now right where it looks like, uh, you

981
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,719
Speaker 3: got you got only the kicker at the kicking line,

982
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,319
Speaker 3: and you got everybody else further up and they got

983
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,440
Speaker 3: to wait a while, and it looks so bizarre. But

984
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 3: it's leading to results more kickoff return some deep some

985
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 3: you know, touchdowns. Most times it's still going to be

986
00:53:58,160 --> 00:53:59,719
Speaker 3: you're probably going to be you know, you're if you

987
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 3: if if you decide to run it out, you're gonna

988
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 3: end up between the twenty and the thirty yard line.

989
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,560
Speaker 3: But it's a play again, It's a play you have

990
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,279
Speaker 3: to pay attention to again. So I think that's a

991
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:10,439
Speaker 3: good thing. I mean, I know you're you're a great

992
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:11,760
Speaker 3: kickoff mine, don't you agree.

993
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 2: I think it's made it more. I mean, they got

994
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:17,319
Speaker 2: what they wanted out of it because they wanted more returns, yes,

995
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:22,200
Speaker 2: and more meaningful plays. Now, obviously, Vikings fans are waking up.

996
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:24,400
Speaker 2: You know this week you're gonna say, why don't you

997
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:26,399
Speaker 2: just kick it out and we'll just take the thirty

998
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 2: five and you know, just we'll play from there and

999
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 2: trust our defense. But it is they got exactly. It's

1000
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:36,960
Speaker 2: rare that a rule change gets exactly. There's no other

1001
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 2: ramifications and side consequences of it. They got exactly what

1002
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:43,840
Speaker 2: they were looking for, and it worked a.

1003
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:45,800
Speaker 3: Couple of texts to well, tell you what, let's we

1004
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 3: still got one more not done yet six fifteen, right,

1005
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 3: so let's take one more break. A lot of texts

1006
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:51,719
Speaker 3: have come in to finish up with We'll do that

1007
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:54,120
Speaker 3: and we will remind you what we have coming up

1008
00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 3: on tomorrow's broadcast as well.

1009
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 2: On an end review. What's been a pretty I think

1010
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:04,719
Speaker 2: productive show to this point. Don't go away. It's the

1011
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,320
Speaker 2: bumper to bumper show rap, and it's brought to you

1012
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:22,360
Speaker 2: by American Pressure. You know.

1013
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:26,720
Speaker 3: We had Chris Carter on yesterday and he was pretty honest,

1014
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 3: although I thought very fair in discussing the.

1015
00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 2: Performance of one J. J. McCarthy, I missed this. I

1016
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 2: did you see this? That? Uh well.

1017
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 3: Part of the reason I wanted Carter on was he

1018
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 3: had responded, your guy.

1019
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,000
Speaker 2: What's the what's the name let me double check it

1020
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:51,840
Speaker 2: to be sure.

1021
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:57,600
Speaker 1: Uh yeah.

1022
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 3: Emmanuelo had film, the former NFL linebacker and media analyst

1023
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:07,920
Speaker 3: a film clip on Sunday night that featured that highlighted

1024
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:13,400
Speaker 3: the McCarthy go ahead touchdown pass to Addison, and Acho

1025
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 3: praised that play, acknowledged he hadn't been as good up

1026
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 3: until then, but then said McCarthy got that clutch Gene

1027
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 3: Carter than via X pushed back with in classic Chris

1028
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:34,280
Speaker 3: Carter form, did you watch the first fifty nine minutes?

1029
00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:37,960
Speaker 2: And that's part of what got me. We got Chris

1030
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 2: Carter back in my head.

1031
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:41,040
Speaker 3: I said, we got to have him on and so

1032
00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 3: we talked about and again I think he was hard

1033
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 3: on McCarthy. He was concerned by what he saw, but

1034
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,719
Speaker 3: he didn't say you give up on him. He did

1035
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 3: not say you just you know it's over. There's no

1036
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 3: way that we've already seen enough to know that he's

1037
00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:58,680
Speaker 3: we can put him on ice.

1038
00:56:58,719 --> 00:56:59,759
Speaker 2: He's not going to be the guy.

1039
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 3: But I'm seeing that A guy who was a longtime

1040
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 3: quarterback coach of McCarthy, I think Holcomb is named, is

1041
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 3: responded with kind of a an obscenity referring to Chris

1042
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 3: Carter as a bleeping clown.

1043
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 5: So this is.

1044
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:24,480
Speaker 3: Getting pretty juicy, I think, he responded, I didn't know

1045
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,480
Speaker 3: that when we had Carter on yesterday. I certainly would

1046
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 3: have gotten Carter's reaction to it. But what this underscores

1047
00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:37,560
Speaker 3: to me is the level of tension right now in

1048
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:41,800
Speaker 3: the organization, in this case outside the organization as well,

1049
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:47,760
Speaker 3: because there is such great there are such great expectations,

1050
00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:53,600
Speaker 3: and there is I guess you could say so far,

1051
00:57:54,440 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 3: so much to be worried about that nerves are fraid,

1052
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 3: I think is the best way to put it. So

1053
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 3: we'll see where that goes from there. It is it

1054
00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:13,040
Speaker 3: a little tough for a former player to come back

1055
00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 3: with that rejoinder well as a snarky guy myself, I

1056
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:20,120
Speaker 3: think it's actually a pretty good line, and there is

1057
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 3: no way you come out of that game just making

1058
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 3: it about how he finished. It has to be about

1059
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:29,600
Speaker 3: the entire performance, for sure, and that's part of the

1060
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:31,720
Speaker 3: reason we like having Carter on. He's gonna be honest,

1061
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,080
Speaker 3: even if it is his team. I'll say again, though

1062
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:36,160
Speaker 3: Carter with us didn't make it sound like he was

1063
00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:39,360
Speaker 3: giving up on just said we got there were some

1064
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 3: concerning things that he saw that that we're giving him pause.

1065
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 2: I'm not sure the right approach. I'm not sure you're

1066
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:54,760
Speaker 2: helping your own your own player when you respond that defensively,

1067
00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 2: because the truth of the matter is there's no arguing

1068
00:58:58,760 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 2: with what had come before.

1069
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:02,840
Speaker 3: I mean, it's not even up for debate. It's not

1070
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:07,720
Speaker 3: like CC is projecting how he might play. It's how

1071
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 3: he played by any objective standard. So what it might

1072
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 3: mean is that there's a lot of nervousness and a

1073
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:19,040
Speaker 3: lot of defensiveness because they damn well know that this

1074
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:22,200
Speaker 3: is not gone. And anybody who's worked with JJ McCarthy

1075
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:24,200
Speaker 3: deep down has to know this has not gone close

1076
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:27,720
Speaker 3: to how they expected that it was that it was

1077
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 3: going to go. This message is to Dan b I'm

1078
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,120
Speaker 3: almost as old as Dan. I know he grew up

1079
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 3: a Bears fan. I'm wondering if JJ reminds him of

1080
00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:40,720
Speaker 3: Bobby Douglas. They both threw throw one hundred miles per

1081
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:44,920
Speaker 3: hour with great inaccuracy. God the Vikings better hope not.

1082
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:51,280
Speaker 3: Bobby Douglas was a big, strapping lad, much more physical than.

1083
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 2: McCarthy, a brut of a runner.

1084
00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:57,080
Speaker 3: In fact, Bobby Douglas i believe was the first running

1085
00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 3: back to ever rush for a thousand yards in a

1086
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:04,760
Speaker 3: season if I'm not mistaken, But he did not have

1087
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:09,840
Speaker 3: the shaw we say football intellect to play the position

1088
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:15,480
Speaker 3: at the professional level. He was wildly inaccurate. I'm not

1089
01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:18,960
Speaker 3: ready to go to the Bobby Douglas comparison yet. I

1090
01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 3: think it's a little early to do that. That might

1091
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:23,240
Speaker 3: be a little bit on the rough side.

1092
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:25,280
Speaker 2: And the last thing I want to have happen to

1093
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:28,960
Speaker 2: me is to have one of JJ's old quarterback coaches

1094
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:32,160
Speaker 2: refer to me as a bleeping clown. So I will defer,

1095
01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,400
Speaker 2: and I won't go quite that far, even though there

1096
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,920
Speaker 2: was great concern, and I've told this story before, the

1097
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 2: great irony regarding the Bobby Douglas career as a left

1098
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:45,320
Speaker 2: handed quarterback for the Bears in the late sixties into

1099
01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:46,160
Speaker 2: the early seventies.

1100
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 4: Is that.

1101
01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:49,479
Speaker 2: His greatest game.

1102
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:52,080
Speaker 3: I mean, it may have been the one game where

1103
01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 3: start to finish he looked like a professional, franchisey NFL quarterback.

1104
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 3: No one will remembered it even at the time because

1105
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:06,480
Speaker 3: during that same game, a receiver for the Detroit Lions,

1106
01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 3: the opponent, Chuck Hughes, died on the field, collapsed and

1107
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:17,640
Speaker 3: died on the field. So even at his crowning achievement moment,

1108
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 3: who's going to remember when in that same game another

1109
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 3: player actually died from not in that case injuries.

1110
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 2: I think he had.

1111
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 3: I want to say Chuck Hughes was the name of

1112
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:30,440
Speaker 3: the receiver. I think he had a heart condition. Ultimately,

1113
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:31,880
Speaker 3: I think they found out he had a heart condition.

1114
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 3: It was awful. I still I remember it like yesterday,

1115
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:37,920
Speaker 3: that whole story. So I'm not ready to go to

1116
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 3: the Bobby Douglas card.

1117
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:41,720
Speaker 2: Quite yet.

1118
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 3: How many times did pjsa the Gophers are a really

1119
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 3: good football team today during the coaches show?

1120
01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:49,360
Speaker 2: Sure he went with it. I know he said they

1121
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,000
Speaker 2: were a disadvantage when the team is so young and

1122
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:52,680
Speaker 2: used that old excuse again, ed and Saint Paul.

1123
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:55,560
Speaker 3: I did not hear PJ today. Did you he got

1124
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:57,520
Speaker 3: a really good football team again today? Or was he

1125
01:01:57,640 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 3: just projecting because he has done that before.

1126
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 2: I caught maybe a couple of minutes the one quote

1127
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 2: that stuck out to me was we're Bowl eligible and

1128
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:07,000
Speaker 2: that's a big deal. Yeah, so it's just it's yeah,

1129
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 2: it's it's again. I you're.

1130
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:16,160
Speaker 3: You're not a really good football team. If you get

1131
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:18,040
Speaker 3: out scored by one hundred points or more than one

1132
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 3: hundred points on the road. In your four road games,

1133
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:23,320
Speaker 3: the closest you've played in the road was losing two

1134
01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 3: touchdowns to to Cal And you've gotten blown out by

1135
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:32,440
Speaker 3: Ohio State, Iowa and for all practical purposes, the University

1136
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 3: of Oregon as well. So we can end. And again

1137
01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:37,320
Speaker 3: here's the other kicker. I know the object of the

1138
01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:39,680
Speaker 3: game is to win, but if in the games where

1139
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:43,360
Speaker 3: you're playing winless big ten teams you have and you

1140
01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:47,720
Speaker 3: have to like when you eke out victories, you're not

1141
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:51,320
Speaker 3: dominating those teams. Come on, man, I mean, we all

1142
01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 3: have eyes, and I don't expect, you know, PJ to

1143
01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:57,960
Speaker 3: say we we stink. I get that that's not what

1144
01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 3: coaches generally are going to do. But it's a bit

1145
01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:05,080
Speaker 3: on the insulting side to keep going down that road.

1146
01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 3: And it's not My opinion won't change on the basis

1147
01:03:09,040 --> 01:03:12,760
Speaker 3: of going to Northwestern and winning, actually Wrigley Field and winning,

1148
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 3: and then hosting Wisconsin and winning that game too.

1149
01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 2: No, that's not going to make me feel because I

1150
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:19,480
Speaker 2: know that gets us. I think the eight and then

1151
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:22,040
Speaker 2: we're happy for you, but no, it's not going to

1152
01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:23,440
Speaker 2: change a thing as far as I'm concerned.

1153
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,400
Speaker 3: Thank you to Kevin Seafert who joined about four or fifteen,

1154
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:33,040

1155
01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:35,400

01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 3: and Pat Kessler and Studio. Wednesday regulars may be working

1157
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:42,000
Speaker 3: on a couple of other ideas. Oh I mentioned forgot

1158
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:44,560
Speaker 3: to mention. Tom Crean I mentioned earlier is scheduled to

1159
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,480
