Speaker 1: Twin cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul. My name is

7
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,000

Speaker 1: We got hockey tonight, so we out like a little

10
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,560

00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 1: get a hit?

12
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: No vikings program? Okay, so we're going the distance. There's

13
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 2: no vikings rewind because there was no game. They did

14
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 2: not play. They did not play. So we're going the distance.

15
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: Fifteen minute Fan on Demand then wildcare how about Friday?

16
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: Though, Well, of course you don't care because you're off completely.

17
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: But I mean, I'm assuming we're out at five. We

18
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 1: are for Golden Gold for a pregame, which is when

19
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: I'll start five o'clock. There you go, you're standing. That's outstanding.

20
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 1: Why not a lot to get into between Ben and

21
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: now I'll do my damnedest not to turn this into

22
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 1: the second consecutive day of Who's Your Hotline? But I'm

23
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: not promising anything. I'll be honest, I'm not promising anything.

24
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: It could seep in every once in a while.

25
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 2: I'm surprised Sinnicon's not here to co host a three

26
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: o'clock hour with a guest appearance from Courtney Cronin.

27
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: He seems bored with it. Oh no, because you used

28
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 1: to consumed obsessed with the with the you know, a

29
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: boring victory over the Cleveland Browns. No, that's Cleveland Browns,

30
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: the Bengals, Bengals. It was the quarterback who used to

31
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: play for the Cleveland Browns, who, by the way, was hideous.

32
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: In the first half. They had like I think the

33
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: Bengals had sixty nine yards total offense at halftime. Your

34
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: guy here, I'm being serious when I say I believe

35
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: you could have quarterbacked the way that he what's his name,

36
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. He's about to say Trent Dilfert. He's in

37
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: the news too, by the way, more on that later.

38
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: The Flacco philosophy in the first half was I'm not

39
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: gonna get hit, right, so I'm getting rid of the ball.

40
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: If it's a three yard pass, is a three yard pass.

41
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: If it's four yards behind the line of scrimmage, I'm

42
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: still throwing it. They were awful. They did nothing. I

43
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: think in four drives they had one first down and

44
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: then I don't know how this happens. I guess it's

45
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: why they play the game. Second half. They had their

46
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: first drive went for like seventeen minutes, and he was methodical.

47
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: I guess what all of us, including himself, yes, including

48
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: all of us watching. So yeah, they it was kind

49
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: of a boring game. Yeah, the Sinnecon, this whole weekend

50
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: should be all about the Hoosiers. But maybe maybe a

51
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: fairness in five fairness in sinicon act. Maybe he was

52
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: and I just didn't know it. Not sure, Cronin according

53
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: Cronin another IU, Alum, I'm not sure. I'm not seen,

54
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: is she tweeted by she crowed much about it. I

55
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: don't know. I haven't checked. Yeah, I imagine, yes, Yeah,

56
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: Like I said, if not, now, when when are you

57
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: gonna do it?

58
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 2: They might be too busy because she's on every show. Yeah,

59
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: she's a sideline reporter on radio broadcast. She's covering the Bears.

60
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 2: Very true. She might not even know that Indiana's doing

61
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 2: well again.

62
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,000

Speaker 2: to Thursday because of the game on Friday. We only

79
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 2: have two hours, so we don't have a lot of

80
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 2: flexibility to move a lot of.

81
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: People, so we're trying to add some people to well whatever,

82
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: we'll make it all work for thirty Today our favorite

83
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: counter terror big knocker, Michael Hurley, his reaction to the

84
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: huge Middle East piece accord deal? Is it real? Is

85
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: it memory x? I don't think there's any question that

86
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: it's wildly successful to the extent that the remaining hostages

87
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 1: have been freed. Can there's no one out there minimizing

88
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: that aspect of the story?

89
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 3: Is there?

90
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: There's no one? Please tell me there's no one minimizing? Well,

91
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what really got accomplish it. That's a

92
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: huge accomplishment. Can we all agree on that? I think

93
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: it's pretty big. Yeah, it's awfully big. So we get

94
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: her reaction to all of it. I'm sure there's plenty

95
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: of video you can see of individual hostages who you know,

96
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: basically have been held hostage since October seventh and their

97
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: first opportunities to meet their family. It's what one might expect.

98
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: It's about as emotional as one might expect. So four

99
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: point thirty for Michael Hurley, former CIA officer who's joined

100
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: us on geopolitical issues for quite some time, and he's

101
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: a Dina's own huge vikings group too. We may time

102
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: try to talk some vikings as well. He'll have a

103
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy take for you, no doubt. I'm sure, no doubt.

104
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: Well that decisions, you know it's already been made, right,

105
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: You do know that you saw you you heard the

106
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: head coach. I thought I told that audios. I don't think.

107
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: I literally think there's less than a five percent chance

108
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: he plays this week. And by the way, that's a

109
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: that's not a referendum on him as a quarterback. Just

110
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: listening to the head coach, I was actually bothered by

111
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: some of the audio. You did save it? You do

112
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: to one, you may play it even before we do

113
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 1: Top five, because I mean, did you listen to it?

114
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: It's like about three and a half, four minutes and

115
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: a half. Oh, he's not even last Yeah, and yes

116
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: I did, like halfway through it. I'm going is JJ

117
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: McCarthy nine years old? I mean he's talking about this

118
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 1: and the lower body, it's mechanics and building blocks. Is

119
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: this his second year as a cour I mean it

120
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: just seemed odd to me, the whole thing, like we

121
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: had to start from you get back down to the

122
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: fundamentals early in the journey lower body. My god, Well,

123
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: if it's that early in the journey, then he shouldn't

124
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: play at least not yet. Uh so I am flatly

125
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: predicting Carson Wentz not flatly predicting he's going to be great.

126
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: But I think, just listening to the head coach, I believe,

127
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: even though he won't say it yet, to Die has

128
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: indeed been cast. And there's a number of you, and

129
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: I know what you're up to. I understand the little game,

130
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: the sly little game you're playing. How word are you

131
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: about all that talk about Signetty going back to his

132
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: native Pennsylvania. Life's too short. I mean, all I can

133
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: do is appreciate what he's done in Indiana and hope

134
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: and pray that Mark Cuban writes another check for another billion,

135
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: because the word is he is now on their payroll,

136
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: and Cuban has finally acknowledged for the first time in

137
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: a long time, he's spending bonus bucks. Oh yeah on

138
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: the program. Well, no, this part's new. That's what I'm saying.

139
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. That he said he has not

140
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: contributed athletically for like twelve years, but that he is

141
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: now all in. So I want it to be a

142
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: big amount, Like I think if he provided, if he

143
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: were to offer up another billion, I think you could

144
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: keep Signetti, dian't you?

145
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 3: Well?

146
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 2: My tweet yesterday when we found out James Franklin was

147
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: going to get fired. Yes, is sig is about to

148
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 2: get that caprice Off money to stay?

149
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: Yes? And I think they'll give it to him.

150
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: And if he if they do call him Penn State

151
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: we're talking about, and he plays the game, because he

152
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 2: could also just not play the game. But they all

153
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 2: played the game. And he just got ten million last year,

154
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 2: right or whatever it was, I don't remember what it was.

155
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 2: A yeah, but money, if you're a big ten program

156
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: and you want to keep your coach, money is not

157
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 2: really going to be an issue. But I think he'll

158
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 2: get your presoft money if they do call.

159
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: I think there's just very likely, and it's easier to

160
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: justify that if you can say we've got a billionaire,

161
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: you know, big shot for sure to write the check.

162
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: And then you don't have to get into the weeds

163
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: of well, we're supposed to be a state university. Let's

164
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: try to keep some sense of proportion. Even if that's

165
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: what universities would even attempt to do, you could at

166
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: least hide behind that a little bit. So we'll see

167
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 1: where that goes. Season starts now, right, Can we all

168
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: agree that it's not just Eagles week, it's the start

169
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: of the regular season for the Minnesota Vikings. We laid

170
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: out I don't know if it was on sermons or

171
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: maybe even been late last week, that through five games,

172
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: the Vikings have played either the easiest or second easiest,

173
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 1: and that's about to change in a big, big way.

174
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: Now I'm aware, don't text me. I know. Eagles look

175
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: more vulnerable than they did before. The Baltimore Ravens defense

176
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: is frightening. Quarterback hasn't played. He's expected to be backed

177
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson by the time the Vikings play the Ravens.

178
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: That games here, isn't it it is? I thought so,

179
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: I get all that. But speaking of Seafert, he had

180
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: this nugget. You may have seen it. ESPN's Football Power Index.

181
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the FPI, the FPI index. As they come

182
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: out of the buy, the Vikings have the NFL's most

183
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: difficult remaining schedule period full stop, end of story. They

184
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: will play five of the league's top ten teams as

185
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 1: ranked by FPI over the next eight weeks, and that,

186
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: of course, assumes that Lamar Jackson returns for week ten.

187
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: I don't give any doubt he'll be back. Now he

188
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: can't play defense. But let's be clear about something. What

189
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: can help your defense look less awful an offense. They

190
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: have no offense right now. They can't score. In fact,

191
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: their backup quarterback I think I benched. He was the

192
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: former Cowboys quarterback who beat us at a night game.

193
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: I was there for that. I might have been one

194
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: of the last Vikings games I went to. Do you

195
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. You're speaking of Cooper Rush

196
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: he beat us here. Yes, I think on a Halloween night.

197
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: It was. You're right, it was definitely a night game

198
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: because I remember that part and I was there. I

199
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: don't even know why I was there, but I was.

200
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: And he looked awful. And then they went back to

201
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: whoever their third string quarterback is at hunting Tyler un

202
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley. He actually looked a little bit better. But

203
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: the Ravens aren't going to continue to be this bad.

204
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: So this is what and what's interesting about the schedule

205
00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: change is we've said it. They as far as I'm concerned,

206
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: they failed through five at three and two. They should

207
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: have at least been four and one. I might give

208
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: you one loss. I ain't gonna give you getting killed

209
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: at home by Atlanta. I'm not giving you that one.

210
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: That's a bad, bad loss. So you win that game,

211
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: you're four and one, and you got a little bit more,

212
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: you know, equity and a little bit more. I guess

213
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: you could say interference if you start getting into a

214
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: stretch where you're losing some games. But now this is

215
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: when there's no sympathy. I don't think no one's gonna

216
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: have sympathy. Don't and also, don't text me about our

217
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: offensive line. I know it, We've talked about it. We're

218
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: aware of it. Every say, every team in football. Look

219
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: at a number of the best teams in the league,

220
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,199
Speaker 1: and if we spend as much time obsessing over their

221
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 1: injury list, we would be shocked because they all have

222
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: significant issues, sometimes at the quarterback position, sometimes offensive line,

223
00:11:54,920 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: sometimes elsewhere. So it I have no sympathy for the

224
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: you know, hang with us now. You just have to

225
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: play a hell of a lot better than you have

226
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: to this point. In fact, I believe what do we

227
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: have three victories right now? Yes, three and two. The

228
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 1: combined record of the three teams we've beaten is five

229
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: and eleven. The combined record of the two Big Ten

230
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: victories the teams the Gophers beaten is own six, not mistaken,

231
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 1: so you can make the same argument. I gets so

232
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,079
Speaker 1: little for the Gophers that now, even though they're not

233
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: playing greatness every week, organ's coming. I know they're playing.

234
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: I assume Nebraska's record is better than owing three in

235
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: the Big Ten. Yeah, sample they're five and one in

236
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: top twenty five. Now, okay, they undefeated that one loss.

237
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: I can't really remember if they lost or not. They

238
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: wanted a barn burner at Maryland last week, correct, yep,

239
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: that's what they're coming off of. So this is really

240
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 1: for both teams, you could say, but especially the Vikings.

241
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: I'm talking about this is it now, and I don't

242
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: know how much that enters into the head coach's decision

243
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: making or thinking at the quarterback position. That's part of

244
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: what I want to get back to when we indeed return.

245
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: As I mentioned, lots of good texts already coming in.

246
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: We've got to believe it or not. And this might

247
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: be historic, our first Dairyland diary. And I don't know

248
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: how one wow, how long I should say, And I

249
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,719
Speaker 1: don't understand what's happened to the Dairyland diary supply? Is

250
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 1: it Wisconsin people aren't as weird as they used to be?

251
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: Or have we not properly conditioned people to come to

252
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: us with these stories to the extent that they once

253
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: did because we used to get inundated, we come to us,

254
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: We didn't have to look for them. Yeah, and now

255
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 1: I got one that I've been embargoing for several days.

256
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: It's a whopper, but it doesn't feel like we get

257
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: them very often. Well, maybe this will reignite that flame.

258
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: Bonus Bucks the fan and two men and a junk

259
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: truck want to do that? It's our National cash contest.

260
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: First keyword of the week is grand. Go to cafe

261
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: in dot com and enter the keyword grand. I can't

262
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 1: hit the button here? Will you hit it for me?

263
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: Do you think you can help us get Sig on

264
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: the show? How hard would it be this week? On

265
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: a scale of zero to one one hundred, how hard

266
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: would it be to get Kurt Signetti on the bumper

267
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: to bumper Broker? It's a zero, isn't it? I don't know?

268
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 2: Zero point five? I mean, nothing's ever impossible. Do they

269
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 2: play this week or do they have a buye. No,

270
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: I think they host. I believe they host Michigan State

271
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: this week. I think they just had their buy So

272
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 2: I don't think they're buying this week.

273
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, this week would be tough.

274
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, this week would be tough, but we can always ask.

275
00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: Maybe just got some inside. I mean he's he's much

276
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: closer to it. He bleeds cream and Crimson actually a

277
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: lot more than I do, as much as I kid

278
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: about it.

279
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 2: Yep, he was over the moon Saturday. I saw him.

280
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 2: I mean, best coach in the country or the moon?

281
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 2: How much google me? You talk about any of those?

282
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 2: You talk about Cuban. I'm worried Bosa's just retired, right, Yes,

283
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: I'm worried about him bleeding his four oh one K

284
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 2: into the nil fund like he worked hard.

285
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: I don't think that's all beyond the aunt to make.

286
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 2: Sure he's got he doesn't lose his nest egg because

287
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 2: he's trying to get next year's great defensive line.

288
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: Here's what he texted me as it became apparent that

289
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: Indiana was going to k knock off orgon the first

290
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: time in the history of the school that they've beaten

291
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: a top five team on the road and I think

292
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: only the second time they've ever beaten a top five

293
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: team anywhere.

294
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 2: They were the last Big ten team to beat Oregon

295
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 2: by the way, they were going back to like four.

296
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, that's true. But anyway, here's the text

297
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: he sent to me was if you were here, I

298
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: would kiss you. That's how emotional Bozic this thing. Yeah,

299
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: and of course I have been kissing a press box

300
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: by Patrick Royci. That's right. We actually originally had some

301
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: hope of having him in studio today, but he's he's

302
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: battling some knee issues. More on that later, so we

303
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: may try to squeeze him in at some point. Bumper

304
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: to bumper is the name of the program, and I'll

305
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: ask you the question. So if you buy that the

306
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: schedule is now serious, and it is, it certainly appears

307
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: to be on a number of levels. Even look, I

308
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: mean the Eagles, I get it they look a little

309
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: bit out of whack yep, but the wee Eagles looked

310
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 1: out of whack a bunch last year. They do that,

311
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: they tend to do that, and they handle it well.

312
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: I think they're one of those teams that handles disarray well.

313
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: Our brand is crisis that's the Eagles way. That's it.

314
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: But here's the kicker. They've been terrible on the ground.

315
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: You got to believe they're thinking, well, this is the

316
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: week our best running back runs for two.

317
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 2: Hundred yards, right right? They watched the Bijon Robinson exactly

318
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 2: exactly from a few weeks ago, and so how do

319
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 2: we do that?

320
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: Does any do you think any of this will enter

321
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 1: into the head coach Koc's decision making as it pertains

322
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: to the quarterback call, like who they're playing? Yeah, like

323
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: like that, Okay, well now we got we are margin

324
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: ferrere is reduced? Yeah, so does that make it more likely?

325
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 1: Says I can't experiment yet.

326
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 2: Yes, I think it does. And Carson Wentz it's going

327
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 2: to be when twine Bay goes, is what you're saying. Yeah,

328
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 2: I think it does. I definitely think it does. Because

329
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 2: the other part, too, is if you did have if

330
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 2: you did have a great week on the grass last week,

331
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 2: which is one of my favorite KOC phrases, just say

332
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 2: practice yes, like I know every I know my coach

333
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 2: does it too. You have all these flowery phrases, you

334
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 2: got to use them.

335
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:43,719
Speaker 1: I get it.

336
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 2: But if he did have such a great week in practice,

337
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,199
Speaker 2: Like how difficult? Wouldn't it have been easy to just go?

338
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 2: And we're excited to have JJ back. He's going to

339
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 2: be the starter. I know, maybe I'm asking for too much.

340
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 2: Maybe that doesn't happen coming off of buy. I'm sure

341
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 2: they'll be at some point. He's got to tell somebody.

342
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if be Wednesday, whenever they reconvene, But

343
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 2: because it just seems like the longer you don't hear

344
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 2: that it's JJ, the more like Carson, right, So I

345
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: think it does enter into his I think it has

346
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 2: entered into his thinking that we can't really screw around.

347
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,199
Speaker 2: We can't waste any time, we can't worry about if

348
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 2: his lower body mechanics are going to be out of

349
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 2: whack because he's only practiced once since he had a kid.

350
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 2: We got to try to win this game somehow, and

351
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 2: Wentz is maybe our best chance to do it.

352
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: So we're going to go with that. What is the

353
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: what's happened to our guy? Seferd He's gonna be on

354
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 1: tomorrow by phone? Yes, I mean did you see his tweet?

355
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 1: It's video JJ McCarthy out here chest bumping dudes. Oh

356
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: that people like that. That's what we're that's what we're

357
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: down to here, looking for clicks. Must be fit, must

358
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: be ready to go. I'll be honest with you. The

359
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: video I've seen, he doesn't even look like he's walking

360
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: straight yet. Really, no, I don't think so. And again

361
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: that doesn't make him a bad person. But in this case,

362
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: I think the debate is going to be rendered moot.

363
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: I really do. I think that even if the head

364
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: coach is ready and it's going to force feed this thing,

365
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: I think his decision is going to be made largely

366
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: because there's not gonna be McCarthy. He even brought it

367
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: up in one of the audio bits I saw. He's

368
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 1: practiced basically once, yeah, in the last three weeks. Right,

369
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: So I think that to that extent it takes the

370
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 1: pressure off him, and that the decision is not really

371
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: a decision other than one made on medical grounds that

372
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: indicates it's not time. Even if I want him to

373
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: be ready, I can't force him to be ready. And

374
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 1: I'm the whisperer. I've said, what, organizations fail quarterbacks more

375
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: often than young quarterbacks fail organizations. Yep. So I'm not

376
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: gonna then turn around and be a hypocrite and try

377
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 1: to rush a guy act when he is physically not

378
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: ready to play.

379
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,959
Speaker 2: The other thing I do think would factor into it.

380
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 2: I think I talked about this on enough set. On Friday,

381
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 2: they play the Chargers a week from Thursday. It's a

382
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 2: short week on the other side, so I'm wondering too. Yes, yeah,

383
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 2: I'm sure they don't want to. I'm guessing whoever they

384
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 2: play Sunday, they're gonna want to play on Thursday. Again,

385
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 2: I'd have to go back and think about precedent for well,

386
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 2: in other situation.

387
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 1: It's the only exception. I would say. Let's say the

388
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: Vikings get killed and Wentz throws two picks. It is terrible,

389
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: and then you say, kid, well you gotta play, you

390
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: gotta get ready, you got to do it. But again,

391
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: he's got to be physically ready to go. Yep, And

392
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: I'm just not sure that he's going to be. I'm

393
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 1: reminded that it's homecoming week at EYU. You could tie

394
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: in the whole alumni thing to get signetti on the air.

395
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,120
Speaker 1: I don't have a good vibe with him. I got nothing,

396
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 1: I got no Indiana connections at this point. Unfortunately, they're

397
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 1: all gone and he's a national darling. Now that's the problem. Yeah,

398
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: And to be honest, he's a hard interview. Oh yeah,

399
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: because he's a gruff dude. He can be kind of entertaining,

400
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: but you gotta know where to go. And it depends

401
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: on his mood a little bit, and sometimes you're like, Okay,

402
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to play anymore. Signetti just gonna make

403
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: a couple of good comments.

404
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,959
Speaker 2: I'm not sure on game week he's ready to have

405
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 2: a Berrero conversation, you know. No, when he's surging towards

406
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 2: the college football playoff, guy, I don't think he's ready

407
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 2: for a Barrero conversation.

408
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: Michigan coach is also going to get fired. They'll be

409
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,360
Speaker 1: coming after Signetti too. Also if Allabama loses another game

410
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:29,879
Speaker 1: or two or LSU in addition to Penn State Lincoln

411
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 1: Riley after they lose a Notre Dame game. On By

412
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 1: the way, Lincoln Riley had a nice victory over Michigan.

413
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 1: That's true. The carousel. I thought this called the Michigan

414
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 1: quarterback was the.

415
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 2: Best in history. He's good, but he's also six. Like

416
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 2: that's the thing we have to remember. And yeah, I

417
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 2: was not surprised they lost to us.

418
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 3: See.

419
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 2: I watched him play against Wisconsin two weeks ago, did

420
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 2: not come away like overly impressed. But this Penn State,

421
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 2: whenever there's a big dog in the coaching carousel, a

422
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 2: lot of stuff ends up happening. There's just a domino

423
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 2: effect unlike any other coaching search. So it's gonna be wild.

424
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 2: And by the way, I think it's idiotic that they

425
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 2: fired James Franklin. We don't have time to get into

426
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 2: it now, but I just was it really fifty mili?

427
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: Yeah? Forty nine? So where does that come from? Where

428
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: do they make that up? I really do want to know.

429
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 1: I'll ask Mace about that when he joins Wednesdays. The

430
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: theory is you get a couple of boosters that just

431
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: like Cuban types and they go, we'll split it all

432
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 1: right twenty five. Yeah, that's the theory because there's no

433
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 1: other way it can be justified, if it can be

434
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: justified at all, and you don't think it can be. Theoretically, yes,

435
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: it's there's no way to justify, but it might just be.

436
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: I mean, well, the precedent of what's happened there it

437
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: is an unbelieva I mean, the bottom has fallen out.

438
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 2: Fifteen days ago he was getting ready for the whiteout

439
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 2: game in a Top ten matchup against Oregon, which was

440
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 2: a good game. They lost in double overtime. Yes, and

441
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 2: then they.

442
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: Since then got killed by UCLA there right, and now

443
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: UCLA turn around and destroyed Michigan State. They did on

444
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: the road on the road with what's his name's kid,

445
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 1: Jerry new Heeiseel new Heisel yep, and the Northwestern I

446
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: know that's a tough one. This is not a terrible team,

447
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: but you can't obviously, you can't lose that game. So anyway,

448
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: let's break, We'll come back Johnny Athletic. There's a lot

00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 1: though we're kind of post beach season. It's almost fall,

459
00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: or it is fall.

460
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 4: I have a recommendation for Oh, please send it along,

461
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 4: because I'll be, as you know, beyond some.

462
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 3: Flights, a lot of coming up here.

463
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 4: Chris crossed in the globe, following the wolves around, So

464
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 4: why not?

465
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 3: That'd be great.

466
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the kind of book where you say,

467
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 1: I just want to lose myself in it. I don't

468
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: want it to get too heavy. I don't need anything

469
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: too serious right now. I want to laugh, maybe cry

470
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: a little bit, maybe get scared, but not in a

471
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: fundamentally scary way. This is the this is the book

472
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:36,479
Speaker 1: the Exorcist. I'm rereading The Exorcists. I'm fifty five years

473
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 1: after I think it came out. I think it came

474
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: out the book in seventy one actually, and I haven't

475
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: read it, I'd say, in at least forty years. And

476
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: let me tell you it's it's it's not light, it's

477
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 1: not beachy what. I don't know what, you know what

478
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: it was? I think Halloween's coming. I like the scare

479
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: tactic stuff. I liked the movie. I liked the book.

480
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 1: When it ca I read re read the books. Yeah,

481
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: it holds up and it's creepy. Not gonna lie, it's

482
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: still creepy this long after.

483
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 4: I was gonna ask why you inflicted on yourself. I

484
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 4: guess tis the season. But let me ask you, this

485
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 4: is the book as scary as the movie in terms,

486
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 4: you know, lots of times the book is more way

487
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 4: better than the movie. But it's such a visual, yes,

488
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 4: kind of entity. I just wonder like it is the

489
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 4: book as as creeped out as the movie.

490
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: Well, for a lot of people, the movie version ended

491
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 1: their affection for pea soup because the vomit scenes involving

492
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 1: I think Linda Blair was the actress. Everything seemed to

493
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 1: come out like split pea soup. It was gross. A

494
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,640
Speaker 1: lot of people at that point swore off that particular soup,

495
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 1: which I love. I'm a big split pea soup guy.

496
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: I will tell you this. I thought the movie was

497
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:56,479
Speaker 1: very well done. It was, you know, visually jarring for

498
00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: its time, certainly, But I think the Bookook is really

499
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: really good. I think William Peter Blattie, I think, is

500
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: the guy who wrote it. I don't even know if

501
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: he's still alive, but I think, because as always with books,

502
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: you can flesh out some things that you can't quite

503
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: fit into a two hour film. And it's so Yeah,

504
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: if you just want to, like I said, just let

505
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 1: loose a little bit, you know, and just just kind

506
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: of relax, kick back, Like if you're like on a

507
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: lounge share in a beach in Manhattan Beach, when you're

508
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 1: following the wolves to La that's the that's the book

509
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: you want. As you look out in the ocean and

510
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 1: see the swaying palm trees, that's the book you want

511
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: to go to The Exorcist.

512
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 3: Yes, looking for.

513
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 4: Some tranquilities, looking to kind of center myself a little bit. Yeah,

514
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 4: I mean it's a it's a great recommendation. I'll definitely

515
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 4: have to head down to the library.

516
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 2: And if you don't, I know guards you will. Yeah,

517
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 2: I love it. You love horror films, you love horror books. Well,

518
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 2: I was going to say that Kilbourn probably knows the

519
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 2: producer of The exorcistem probably have dinner at d'antana's with

520
00:26:58,280 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 2: them after you read the book.

521
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: He already has very true.

522
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 3: Awesome, I'm definitely gonna be looking Lord Kilby up. We'll

523
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,479
Speaker 3: be over there out there in you know, less than

524
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 3: two weeks.

525
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 4: No, I can't wait for that or maybe two ten days.

526
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 1: Let me ask you before we get to a lot

527
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: of football, let me ask you a a toss up

528
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 1: pro basketball question that is really deep, I think, and

529
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 1: is larger than just any one team. And it goes

530
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: back to the Kawhi Leonard story, not the story regarding

531
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: the tree hugging company that he was allegedly a part of,

532
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,479
Speaker 1: not doing any any real promotion. That's still got him

533
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 1: fifty million dollars or whatever it's supposed to be. But

534
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 1: I go back to, you know, his injury history again.

535
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: Last year he ended up I believe when when we're

536
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 1: talking about international, didn't he end up basically getting dismissed

537
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: or basically I thought the people who ran the international

538
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 1: body for pro basketball or the US team basically said

539
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 1: he's not healthy enough this he shouldn't, we can't, We're

540
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 1: not going to make a part of this team. And

541
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 1: the story I was told was Clippers guy. I can't

542
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: remember who the general manager would have been. Yes that

543
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: Lawrence Frank went off basically on how dare you know?

544
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 1: How dare you go?

545
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 4: You know?

546
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: How to question him? Et cetera, et cetera, and It

547
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: was used in a story I can't remember who wrote

548
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: the story, basically saying, here's an example of one of

549
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: the problems this league has right now in that Frank

550
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: may have felt differently, but felt obligated to protect the player,

551
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: to be on the player's side, because the dirty little

552
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: secret that gets reinforced year after year is that it's

553
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: getting harder and harder. Well, i'll tell you I heard

554
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: talking about sam Mitchell. Sam Mitchell said the Clippers should

555
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: have said you're not playing, you're not capable of playing,

556
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 1: but that there's so much fear in twenty twenty five

557
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: that the truth of the matter is a lot of

558
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: general managers aren't really even general managers anymore. Do you

559
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: agree with that premise?

560
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do, Dan, and I will say, though, to

561
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 4: be fair like, it is selective in terms of which one.

562
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 4: So there are certain players that do not require that

563
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 4: sort of kid glove, you know, CoDeeN however you want

564
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 4: to term it. Anthony Edwards is one of those. Steph

565
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 4: Curry Jokic. You know, there's plenty of examples of megawatt

566
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 4: stars who are not the high maintenance type that way.

567
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 4: But it is well known around the league that there

568
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 4: are many that are, including Kawhi Leonard and including Lebron James,

569
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 4: including you know many you know, big name players out

570
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 4: there that have turned being a lead executive and and

571
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 4: a head coach oftentimes as well in this league into

572
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 4: much more of a diplomatic post than you know, a

573
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 4: pron office leader than a head coach, those types of things.

574
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 4: Do the money that these guys are making, you are

575
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 4: more beholden to them than ever to try and keep

576
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 4: them happy, to try and keep them feeling supported. And

577
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 4: I think in general, a lot of the guys who

578
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 4: require that extra The Joel Embiid is another one. The

579
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 4: crew will require that extra kind of effort and care

580
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 4: typically falls short when you really need them. But but yeah,

581
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 4: if you were to take a straw pole or you know,

582
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 4: an anonymous pole of executives around the league, they would

583
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,080
Speaker 4: tell you that there's many of them out there that

584
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 4: loose sleep at night and swallow their pride on a

585
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 4: daily basis.

586
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 3: In catering to some.

587
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 4: Of these guys because of just the way that things

588
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 4: are run, it's it is difficult for some gms.

589
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 3: For sure.

590
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: Jannis is a player who around the league, I think

591
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 1: generally speaking, has a very good is developed a very

592
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,479
Speaker 1: good reputation, right. He works. He's talented, but he works

593
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: no nonsense in that regard. The question on the table

594
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 1: really along these same lines is whether this is a

595
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: bad look where he's got I think two years left

596
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: on his contract after this year or maybe including this year.

597
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: You may know better than me on his contract scooting

598
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: this year, so that's still a lot of time. He's

599
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 1: not close to free agency. And he holds a presser

600
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: when he finally addresses the issues of rumors about the

601
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 1: Knicks talking to them and some other to whoever else,

602
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: and he says, no, no, I'm all in this now.

603
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: You know, in six months, you know, I'm allowed to

604
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: change my mind, and I'm going I think that's also

605
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: the kind of stuff that, even if it's a great player,

606
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 1: people go, what are you doing? If don't bother saying

607
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: you're all in? Then if you're going to say, but

608
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 1: I could change my mind of six months, because that

609
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: will still be this season potentially, I saw. I think

610
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: it is another tentacle of what we're talking about here.

611
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: I get it. If you're one of five and you're

612
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 1: a superstar, you control a lot in a basketball game

613
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 1: compared to some other sports. I still don't think that's

614
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: a very good look for him either.

615
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is tough, Dan, because I mean, I am

616
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 4: with you in terms of I'm an enormous Yannis fan.

617
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 4: I love the way that he goes about his business

618
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 4: and what he's meant to Milwaukee, and the way that

619
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 4: generally speaking, over these ten twelve years, he has spurned

620
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 4: sort of the NBA media machine of suggestions you have

621
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 4: to get out of there, you have to get out

622
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 4: of there. No, he's stuck there, won a championship, did

623
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 4: all those things. It's clear right now at this stage

624
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 4: of his career he is trying to apply pressure publicly

625
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 4: and privately to the Bucks to continue to invest, to

626
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 4: try and make player moves so that they can try

627
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 4: and get back to championship level, which they are not

628
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 4: right now, and I think he's doing it clumsily. I

629
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 4: agree with you because I think there are so many

630
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 4: times we have seen Giannis in press conference situations speak

631
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 4: so eloquently, so thoughtfully about whatever the issue is of

632
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 4: the day, and he's remarkable with it.

633
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 3: But this one is tougher.

634
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 4: Now he can say, look, I've been here, I've put

635
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 4: in twelve years with this team. I've stayed through thick

636
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 4: and thin, We've won a title. I deserve to have

637
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 4: some freedom, and he does. But you are already seeing

638
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 4: what the Bucks are doing. Number one, they got rid

639
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 4: of Damian Lillard and ate a bunch of his money

640
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 4: so they could go get Miles Turner. But then they've

641
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 4: signed both of Jannis's brother Like, if Jannis has a sister,

642
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 4: they'd probably sign her to play. Like, I mean, that's

643
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 4: that's just like the catering that they are trying to do,

644
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 4: the bending over backward, and that's the kind of stuff

645
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 4: where you're looking at it like, all right, man, is

646
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 4: this is this really how.

647
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 3: A professional organization should run? No, it's not.

648
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 4: But Giannis is the sun, moon and the stars in Milwaukee,

649
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 4: and if you leave, if he leaves, you got to

650
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 4: start over, and you're really bottoming out. And so there's

651
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 4: desperation there. And yeah, I wish Giannis was smoother with

652
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 4: how he handled it, or maybe just a little more

653
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 4: discreet with it. But but yeah, that that that's the

654
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,319
Speaker 4: name of the game. And everyone in the league is

655
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 4: watching and waiting and they're going to be saying, hey, honest,

656
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 4: you said six months what about four months, how about

657
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 4: two months?

658
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 1: Yeah? Are you?

659
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 3: Are you ready?

660
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 4: Now? It's going to be a thing all season long.

661
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,399
Speaker 1: He's making fifty four million, one hundred and twenty six,

662
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty dollars this year. He will make

663
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: fifty eight million, four hundred and fifty six thousand, five

664
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty six dollars next year, and then he's

665
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 1: got a player option twenty seven twenty eight at sixty two,

666
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,359
Speaker 1: seven hundred eighty six, six hundred and eight two bucks.

667
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: It's an old cliche about you do want players now

668
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: want it both ways. I'm gonna go ahead and lock

669
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: in on the money when you give it to me,

670
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,240
Speaker 1: but I'm still going to reserve the right to flirt

671
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: with other teams after the fact because you know, again,

672
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: you had players leave like Lebron for example, Durant, right,

673
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: and we can argue about whether he should have gone

674
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: to Golden State, but he was approaching free agency.

675
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 3: Correct, So yeah, the free agents.

676
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a free agent. So to me, that

677
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: that's the distinction here, that's that's that's fair to draw.

678
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's absolutely right. And and here's the

679
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 4: the changing landscape of the league now with the second

680
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 4: aprons that we've talked about in the In the much

681
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,720
Speaker 4: greater restrictions on transacting in the league that Tim Connolly

682
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 4: has told you about on your show and told us

683
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 4: as well, it's it is making it much harder now.

684
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 4: There was a time, I'm Dan where a player X

685
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 4: could sign a five year deal and just say, all right,

686
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 4: that's fine, I'll just get traded if I'm unhappy in

687
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 4: a year, and that sometimes happened, where they request to

688
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 4: trade a year later or something like that. You're thinking, wow,

689
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,959
Speaker 4: how is this going? But it usually happened. Nowadays it's

690
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 4: much harder to trade players, especially once making fifty five

691
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 4: sixty seventy million dollars a year.

692
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,919
Speaker 3: And so I do think that.

693
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 4: Part of it too is now the frustration on the

694
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 4: players a little bit that they've lost a little bit

695
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 4: more of control of being able to have their cake

696
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 4: and eat it too. They they're going to have to

697
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 4: be a little more cutthroat, and they'll take a little

698
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 4: bit more of a risk, I think with shorter deals

699
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 4: or going all the way to the end of their

700
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 4: contract before they can really exert a lot of leverage.

701
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 4: Unless you want to be Jimmy Butler and just blow

702
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 4: everything up within an organization.

703
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: Fair enough, let's talk some football. I've got a lot

704
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: of good text of coming in several of them for you,

705
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: specifically regarding Eagles week and the Vikings quarterback call for

706
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 1: this week. That's going to be the a topic for sure,

707
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 1: Marshall writes for Minnetonka, A question for you, why are

708
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: so many people saying we have to figure out if

709
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,240
Speaker 1: JJ is the guy this season? He's twenty two, Jordan

710
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: lovestaff for three years. This is a winning business and

711
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 1: this team was built to win. Now, Wentz clearly gives

712
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: them the best chance to do that. Let me give

713
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: you one other one and then you can go in

714
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: any direction you'd like. This is from seven to one. Oh,

715
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:29,360
Speaker 1: it's from flim Flamm.

716
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 2: Wentz versus Eagles is a better quarterback barometer than McCarthy

717
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 2: versus Eagles.

718
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 1: It's only worth starting McCarthy if you think he is

719
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:39,760
Speaker 1: capable of having a franchise quarterback type performance against Philly.

720
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 1: He'll be active as the backup before he starts too bad.

721
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: JJ starts too bad. JJ starts just can't solidify the gig.

722
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 1: Not that my leash slash toe slash rope on Wentz.

723
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 1: Wentz Winnebago is fastened that tight, so fire away.

724
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say, like I understand the point of like, look,

725
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 4: JJ is still young enough that you have time to

726
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 4: start to figure this thing out and you don't have

727
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 4: to make a decision this season. But I do think

728
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 4: one of the things that one of the reasons the

729
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 4: Vikings went with JJ McCarthy versus Sam Darnold and paying

730
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 4: him thirty million or whatever, is that if you have

731
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 4: a starting quarterback who is making on that rookie deal,

732
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 4: that is how you leverage those years with building around him,

733
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 4: spending money talent wise so that you can ideally win

734
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 4: right now. And it doesn't mean that you have to

735
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 4: make that decision within one year or two years, but

736
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 4: it certainly does help if by going into year three

737
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 4: you really have a good idea on can this guy

738
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,879
Speaker 4: do it or not. I think it would be difficult

739
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 4: for the Vikings if they got through this entire year

740
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 4: and you know, barring a Wentz just explosion, you know,

741
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 4: Keenum like, and they're going to the NFC title game

742
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 4: with him, if it's a nine win season or an

743
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 4: eight win season at the end and McCarthy hasn't played

744
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 4: much at all. That's where I think you lose some

745
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 4: advantage in terms of evaluation, in terms of roster building,

746
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 4: in terms of decision making, and so I do think

747
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 4: that there is you'd like to see in the absence

748
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 4: of a huge step up in Wentz's game, which he's

749
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 4: been good, but I don't think he's been great yet.

750
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 4: I just think that you want to eventually get back

751
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 4: to JJ if it's if this season.

752
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 3: Is going to be a middling season.

753
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 4: If not, then you ride Wentz as long as you can, or,

754
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 4: as I've said before, maybe Wentz gets hurt again or

755
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 4: maybe he struggles, and then you just go back to

756
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 4: McCarthy organically and let it play out that way. But

757
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 4: I agree with the color in some respect that I

758
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 4: don't think you have to rush it right now, but

759
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 4: I do think that you want to have a little

760
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 4: bit better idea by the end of the season where

761
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 4: you're going in the next three to four years.

762
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: Again, I think in this case it may become academic

763
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: because if koc is going to be as cautious rightly

764
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: as he says he's going to be about the physical

765
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 1: readiness of the player, then that will make his decision

766
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: for him, and I think it already looks a little

767
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,319
Speaker 1: bit that way for this week. Again, where it gets

768
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: funky is if Wentz is good to very good and

769
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 1: the Vikings knock off the Eagles, you probably have to

770
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 1: play him against the Chargers that next Thursday night, I think.

771
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 1: And then it extends the problem, your problem that you're

772
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: talking about, which is, well, God, we got to get

773
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 1: to him. What are we going to get to McCarthy.

774
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: On the other hand, I'd say, if you're if you

775
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 1: keep winning, you'll accept that trade off, even if it's

776
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: not what was in the blueprint. And the other way

777
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,319
Speaker 1: is Wentz comes back to the pack, which he's very

778
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 1: likely probably will will at some point, and at that

779
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: point he's healthier. McCarthy's healthier, healthier, he's watched a little

780
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 1: bit more, and he's ready to quote unquote come to

781
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 1: the rescue.

782
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 3: Totally.

783
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 4: And that's where I think right now, coming out of

784
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 4: this buy, the Vikings are actually in a little bit

785
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 4: of an ideal situation in that you have two games

786
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,399
Speaker 4: in five days coming out of the buy, and that

787
00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 4: in and of.

788
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 3: Itself gives you cover.

789
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,439
Speaker 4: Cannot have to rush McCarthy back out there. You can

790
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 4: reasonably and very responsibly say that, hey, we just don't

791
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 4: want to he's missed some time. We don't want to

792
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:33,839
Speaker 4: put him in that situation where he's playing two games

793
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 4: in five days and we're gonna let this thing play

794
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 4: out to make sure that we are taking care of

795
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 4: him and giving him the best chance. And so you

796
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 4: do not have to rush any of this. It can

797
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 4: just unfold, you know, naturally, in terms of whether you

798
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,280
Speaker 4: continue riding. Once if he beats the Eagles and beats

799
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 4: the Chargers, you've probably got to keep going with him

800
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 4: because this team is built to win now. But if

801
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 4: somewhere along the line he either is injured or he

802
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 4: slips and has a rough one, then you can go

803
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,280
Speaker 4: back to McCarthy when he presumably is a little healthier,

804
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 4: when hopefully your offensive line is a little healthier, and

805
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 4: you again get back to where you were at the

806
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 4: start of the season, where you hope that you give

807
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 4: this young man the best chance to succeed while he's

808
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 4: out there, and the best chance to get a true

809
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 4: evaluation is when he's healthy, when as many people around

810
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 4: him are as healthy as possible.

811
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 1: Is Johnny Athletic on today merely to mock Wild Nation

812
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 1: after Game two while he can before the Wolves take

813
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: the court. That's from Allen in Afton.

814
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 4: I would love to do it, but I certainly can't

815
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 4: do it this early in the season, in an eighty

816
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:47,359
Speaker 4: two game season, man, Like you know, yes, I think

817
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 4: they were planning the parade road after the win over

818
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 4: Saint Louis and then got brought back down to earth.

819
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:57,760
Speaker 4: But you know, even the most disingenuous of me can't

820
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 4: just like dance on a grave after one bad game

821
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 4: at home, even if it.

822
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 3: Was a bit of a buzzkill.

823
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:06,240
Speaker 4: So I will as my gift to the Wild fans

824
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 4: that will take it easy on them this week.

825
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 1: Do you have a would you like to place into

826
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: circulation your nominee to become the next manager of the

827
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,919
Speaker 1: Minnesota Twins.

828
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 4: So I am so with you, Dan in terms of

829
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 4: I think you're on with this. It's like the next

830
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 4: year is going to be a dumpster fire or gonna

831
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 4: be boring, I would say, and gonna be apathetic. And

832
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 4: there's not going to be a whole lot to interest anyone,

833
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 4: I don't think. And and they're the the ballpark's going

834
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 4: to be empty, so let's jazz it up. Let's put

835
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 4: aj Prizinskiler, Let's put ozy Gie in in there. Let's

836
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 4: get someone who is going to be throwing bases and tantrums,

837
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,760
Speaker 4: someone who is going to be throwing players under the bus,

838
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,720
Speaker 4: someone who's gonna be making controversial statements to get some attention.

839
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 3: Because this thing is going the wrong way.

840
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,959
Speaker 4: And I would hate to see I really like Justin Morno,

841
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 4: I would really like Tory Hunter.

842
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 3: I'd hate to see them.

843
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, put in that position and just have to suffer

844
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 4: through something like that. So give me, give me a

845
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 4: live wire, give me someone that you just never know

846
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:16,399
Speaker 4: what they're going to say or do when you get

847
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 4: to the ballpark, and see if you can sell some

848
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 4: tickets that way.

849
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's about the uh. I think that's pretty much

850
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 1: what we're left with. The only question is whether those

851
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 1: individuals are too smart to go to a program where

852
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:31,280
Speaker 1: they feel like, well, we're bound, I'm bound to fail.

853
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 1: I guess that gets back to if you're desperate enough

854
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: to become a manager for the first time or a

855
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 1: manager again, you take whatever's there. But I think that's

856
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: the other issue is what smart savvy ball guy as

857
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: a manager, He's gonna sit and let's he sits down

858
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: and gets the vision of where this thing is going

859
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 1: and saying, wait a minute now, So why should I

860
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: allow myself to be thrown to the wolves this year

861
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,880
Speaker 1: sacrificed unless you've got something, You've got a plan to

862
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 1: show me that this might actually be going someplace in

863
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: two or three years.

864
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:07,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, And when you look at it, I

865
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,239
Speaker 4: know that there's only a finite number of these jobs, right,

866
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 4: and so I mean, you can't be too picky about it.

867
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 4: But I think that if.

868
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 5: You are a young, you know, kind of coach that's

869
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 5: coming up, that's well thought of, that's think about the

870
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 5: next big thing, or you are a kind of more

871
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 5: of a star free agent, veteran guy who's won a

872
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 5: lot of other places and is going to have his choice.

873
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:32,399
Speaker 3: I don't know why you would choose here.

874
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 4: You're coming to a situation where there is a lot

875
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 4: of animosity among the fan base. You're coming to a

876
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:41,880
Speaker 4: situation where you really don't think that there's going to

877
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 4: be an incredible amount of investment from ownership, and that

878
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 4: any sort of winning will be probably a lot based

879
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 4: on luck and and things like that. And so if

880
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 4: you want to really have a chance to have any

881
00:45:56,600 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 4: longevity in the profession, and you're not just expert to

882
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 4: take any job. I would think that this would be

883
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 4: one of the least desirable situation that's out there right

884
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 4: now in terms of opening.

885
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 1: Let me know, once you hit the road and you

886
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: crack open the Exorciste and finish that thing, let me

887
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:16,799
Speaker 1: know what you.

888
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,719
Speaker 3: Think I will.

889
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 4: I usually like to sleep on planes, and I might

890
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 4: have some nightmares if I know you read a couple

891
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 4: of chapters in that and then dozed off.

892
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 3: But you know, hey, you know, get busy living.

893
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 1: Or get hunt yourself. Yeah every while, so can it

894
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 1: chapt yourself upset the apple cart a little bit? You know,

895
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 1: so I did too much? Otherwise, too much apathy sets in.

896
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 3: I like it.

897
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 4: Maybe i'll yeah, And would you recommend I might like.

898
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 3: I've been looking for.

899
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,400
Speaker 4: Another book that I can read with the kids, like

900
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:43,320
Speaker 4: before bedtime.

901
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 3: Maybe that's that would be good too for them.

902
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 4: Right, we just curl up, you know, in my daughter's

903
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 4: bedroom and read a few chapters and then let her

904
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,320
Speaker 4: doze off to sleep peacefully.

905
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 3: That'd be nice, I.

906
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,839
Speaker 1: Think, yeah, they they might doze off. I don't think

907
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,359
Speaker 1: it'll be very peaceful at that point, it can at

908
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: least be selective about what dialogue you read drum in

909
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 1: which dialogue you decide might be left for a later time.

910
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:05,399
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

911
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 4: I'll keep that in mind and I'll run it by

912
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 4: the wife as well.

913
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 1: There you go, thanks man. That's Johnny Athletic, brought to

914
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 1: you by RBC Wealth Management Michael Hurley. In about a

915
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: half hour, about four point thirty this afternoon, we'll get

916
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:24,800
Speaker 1: his reaction to the big peace agreement? Does it have legs?

917
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 1: Can it last? What are going to be from his

918
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: what will be from his standpoint? Some of the key

919
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 1: thresholds to think that this thing might be real? All

920
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: of that with our counter terry guy, he Dinah's own

921
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:43,759
