1
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: There goes Musk from K one two. He's the Savage

2
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: Beast at the Savage Feast.

3
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 2: Coming up next on the stage.

4
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: Hello, lead on her friend Tangle Ray and I'm muss

5
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Buffalo Wild.

6
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 2: Wings, Savage.

7
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: This is a segment we started way back at Buffalo

8
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: Wild Wings wherever nineteen ninety two YEP called I Hop

9
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: in honor of Paul, I Hop in honor of Paul.

10
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: So far, with a month and change to go in

11
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: the season, didn't get that International House of Pancakes endorsement.

12
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 2: We tried.

13
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: We were looking for pigs in a blanket. Radio has

14
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: not transpired bacon, but nevertheless we continue to bring the

15
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: bacon with the I Hop because it means in honor

16
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: of Paul, as in Paul charging him the fantasy identity

17
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: of this radio show for a decade and a half

18
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: on the Friday football piece. So what we do is

19
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: with I Hop we go quarterback, running back, wide receiver,

20
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: tight end. Then we come right back like in snake fashion,

21
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: normal fantasy stuff. Six points for touchdowns, for passing touchdowns,

22
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: receiving a running six and so on, and and we

23
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: score it. Now there has been no dangling carriage or

24
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: anything at the end of this metaphorical rainbow. We just

25
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: kind of did it in honor of Paul in I

26
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: hop like fashion. Here are the scores into this week.

27
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: I have fifty four points. Alex Lewis is surging on

28
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: the outside with giant strides ridiculous as he circumnavigates the field,

29
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: and he has fifty two. Nordo still with a puncher's

30
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: chance with forty. So it's relatively tightly contested as we

31
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: head into our tight end selections this week. The only

32
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: rule really is that you can't use the same guy twice.

33
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: The one bringing up the proverbial rear is Nordo. And

34
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: who is your tight end this week? And why well,

35
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm gonna go.

36
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 3: The last time we all kind of had a scoring feast,

37
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 3: I believe was the last time we picked tight ends.

38
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 2: It was a score Gami and and I had.

39
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 3: I had Ferguson from Dallas, and you had you had

40
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 3: the guy. I'm gonna select Trey McBride, who's had seven

41
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 3: tds in his last seven games season super disease. I

42
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 3: don't know what's going on with Kyler Marvin Harrison Junior

43
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 3: not living maybe up to expectations. Maybe that's a QB conversation.

44
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 3: Trey McBride has finally followed through on what we were

45
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 3: looking for him.

46
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 2: A year ago.

47
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 3: Is he's Wow, he's got all these targets, he's got

48
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 3: all these catches. I think he had like one TD

49
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 3: last year. He's finding his way into the end zone.

50
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 3: He's the only sure thing, it feels like, on that

51
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 3: Card's offense right now. So I'm gonna take Trey McBride

52
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 3: seven tds in his last seven and hopefully we can

53
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 3: bump this thing up a notch and I can stop

54
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 3: losing to the beat writer.

55
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 2: He's such a good player. Trey McBride's awesome. I he

56
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 2: got an extension, I think, But if had he not

57
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 2: believe he was gonna be a free agent this offseason,

58
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 2: would have would have been a guy who my eye

59
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 2: would have been on because I know Kevin O'Connell has

60
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: a ton of respect for him.

61
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 3: So it's crazy though, after that's a large like you

62
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: know j Jackson Smith and Jigba who completely I mean,

63
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 3: that was the curse right there is picking a wide

64
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 3: receiver going against my favorite team last week. But all

65
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 3: the names and there there are highlight wide receivers each

66
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,679
Speaker 3: and every year. Malik Neighbors is gonna get healthy and

67
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 3: he'll be back in the mix next year. Jets and

68
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase with the tight end spot, man, I mean,

69
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: it's just like it's gone from fat guy that can

70
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 3: block and potentially catch a five yard out to this guy.

71
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 3: Changes games, he changes offenses, changes the entire frame of franchises.

72
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 2: McBride's one of those guys and Bowers and and really

73
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: a handful of others. Yeah, I really, I was kind

74
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 2: of shocked last week in that Seahawks game the AJ

75
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: Barner dude, Like, I actually really liked that gay court round.

76
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 2: He's fast. I thought he was a really good player.

77
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: So yeah, the tight end position is huge, and it's

78
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 2: it's kind of interesting too, Like as much as it

79
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 2: has transitioned to the pass catching guy, the big blocking

80
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 2: types are kind of in vogue as well. So it's, uh,

81
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 2: it's I mean, the position's fascinating. It's a hybrid spot

82
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 2: in a league that is becoming more hybrid than ever.

83
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: So McBride's a good pick. I I uh, that's a

84
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 2: good one.

85
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: That's chalcol Look, you're not here to analyze everybody else's pitch.

86
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: You're here to make a pick and try to run

87
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: me down. So who's your pack? I appreciate the affirmation,

88
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: not being nervous that you're going on trial at eleven o'clock.

89
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 1: I got your approval, Thank you. I'm taking Mark Andrews.

90
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,799
Speaker 1: You just got an extension that means he's fat and happy.

91
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: You don't have no catches down.

92
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 2: No, you're right you should. No.

93
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: When he scores five pockets Mark Andrews, Mark Andrews against

94
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: the Steelers defense, that just does not impress me.

95
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 2: The Steelers linebackers are slow ish. Uh, their defense isn't

96
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 2: very good. Mike Tomlin. There's a lot of a lot of

97
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: noise around Mike Tomlin out in Pittsburgh. And the Ravens

98
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 2: offense has been in a weird spot. They haven't been great.

99
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 2: Lamar doesn't really look right. But I'm just you know,

100
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 2: it was for me kind of picking between Mark Andrews

101
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 2: and a guy in Isaiah Likely who I kind of

102
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: hope is in the Vikings in a Vikings, Jersey next year.

103
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 2: So yeah, Mark Andrews would be my pick right here,

104
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: right now. Well that mine just never stops, does it?

105
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 2: Never hold on? Though?

106
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 3: I mean Isaiah likely is in a Vikings uniform or

107
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 3: we ain't like to tell us who's leaving.

108
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 2: No, no, it's not sign but it's not time. I'll

109
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: send you over the cap dot Com and I'll let

110
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 2: you go look on the right side and look at

111
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: the tight end who's starting for this team, see what

112
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 2: the cat pit is, and I'll let you sort through

113
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 2: all that.

114
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas, everybody, all right? Uh so we have we

115
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 1: have Dray McBride. Yes, damn, that's a nice pick. We

116
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: have Mark Andrews and Nick I'm going to select. I'm

117
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: going to select a tight end for the Buffalo Bills

118
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: named Dalton Kincaid. And here's why they play Cincinnati. The

119
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals have allowed thirteen tight end touchdowns this year.

120
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: That's almost twice as many as anybody else in the NFL.

121
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: When when you go against the Bengals defense, tight ends

122
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 1: have caught eighty six passes for one twenty one yards

123
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: and thirteen touchdowns. Right behind that, Jacksonville, that's who Indy plays,

124
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: almost took Ty Warren eighty four, eight, thirty one and seven.

125
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: So since that's that's I hoop in honor of Paul

126
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: as in poly Wally charge to him.

127
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 2: Well, hold on though, what does Alex think about that pick? Yeah,

128
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 2: Dalton Kincan is good. I just don't know if he's healthy. Hey, anyway,

129
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 2: what he might is he like questionable or something? Is

130
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: he really? He might be out? He might be out.

131
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: Like I said, I'm taking Dawson Knox. Okay, we're making

132
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: a pick change here?

133
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 2: Isn't that the former Gophers hoopster? I have no idea?

134
00:06:58,200 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 2: How is Brevin span four?

135
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: I'm taking Dawson Knox if he had a couple of

136
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: nice dollars has a touchdown?

137
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 2: Only cow use not those kids? Sky them rode the

138
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 2: bogo first and foremost.

139
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: Because now we have a charitable benefactor with us, So

140
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: I mean it matters to win with with alec and

141

Speaker 2: changing my pick.

146
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 3: Since there's a charity potentially and people benefit from this.

147

00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 2: You didn't want to go, Hockinson?

152
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: Uh, well, I mean TJ has two touchdowns in his

153
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: last twenty five regular season games, so probably to skip

154
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: that one.

155
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,040

Speaker 4: Hello? Hello, Hello, and good morning.

167
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: What's what's the best way to describe professionally what you do?

168
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 4: I don't know that there's the best way. I do

169
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 4: a lot of stuff. I'm a fantasy football analyst, but

170
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 4: many years ago I decided to add a terrible, teritable

171
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 4: element to everything I do, And so I founded a

172
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 4: charity in the fantasy space, okay, and made that a

173
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 4: part of basically everything I do. I run charity tournaments,

174
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 4: I do lots of analysis on lots of different stations.

175
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: All right, And Scott can be found via the machine

176
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: at Scott Fish two four. Yep at Scott Fish two four.

177
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 1: Please follow him via x for myriad reasons. But Scott

178
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: approached me this week, and subsequently if he approaches me,

179
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: he approaches us because of the Friday Football Feast trio

180
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: as a team, and he said that he would like

181
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: to add a charitable tie to the I Hops segment

182
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: in honor of Paul, and Scott's worked with Paul for many,

183
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:33,839
Speaker 1: many years. So from there, we now each have attached

184
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 1: a charity to our selections and we're going to take

185
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: this through the end of the year. I have fifty

186
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: four points, Alan fifty two, nor to forty. Uh So

187
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: what led you to doing that, Scott? And like, like,

188
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: what is the charit? Like why do you do things

189
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: like this?

190
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 4: So in twenty fourteen I had a heart attack and

191
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 4: it changed the way I looked at everything in the world.

192
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 4: I realized I needed to do good with my platform.

193
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 4: I needed to do everything I do to have purpose, amen,

194
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 4: I needed to be a good role model, be a

195
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 4: good leader, and I added a charitable element to everything

196
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 4: I do. And I started a charity called Fantasy Cares.

197
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 4: And what we do is basically try to inspire people

198
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 4: to do good with this hobby of ours, do good

199
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 4: with fantasy football. I used to tag every show and

200
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 4: for people, tagging means at the end of the show,

201
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 4: this is where you can find me. This is you know,

202
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 4: those kind of things I used to tag every show with.

203
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 4: If you're in a fantasy league, consider giving one of

204
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 4: your entry fees to charity. Your league won't miss it.

205
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 4: There's one hundred thousand fantasy leagues, and if all of

206
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 4: them gave one entry fee to charity, we could do

207
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 4: a ton of good out there.

208
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so so you mean, if we're if we're

209
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: in a twelve team or yeah, some lets just get

210
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: together with say it's fifty dollars for the season, yep,

211
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: and that goes to Fantasy Cares and subsequently too, or.

212
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 4: To any charity. We don't care. We just want to

213
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 4: inspire you to do good. We don't care where it goes.

00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 4: money to be able to do good with it.

239
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:13,880

Speaker 3: What about you the con Well, similarly, it's it's actually

270
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 3: a similar type of entity. Feed my Starving Children in

271
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 3: shan Hassen is a spot that, uh well, that place

272
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 3: multiple times a year. I take my kids there. It's

273
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 3: really important to me that my kids kind of see

274
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 3: the value of work as it pertains to the finished product.

275
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 3: And it's a great spot, easy for the kids to

276
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 3: help and and have an absolute blast while doing so.

277
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 3: So I've just been a big supporter of Feed my

278
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 3: Starving Children in that organization for a number of years.

279
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 3: That's gonna be the charity that that I'm battling for.

280
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 3: And Trey McBride is going to help out this week.

281
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 2: Yeah that's nice. I love that place.

282
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,599
Speaker 1: It's Jan Hassen, like you said, in order, lives in

283
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: Chasca Meed and Prairie. And I'm sure you've done this

284
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: with your kids multiple times. Yeah, going to the facility

285
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: and filling the bags and the buckets and yeah back

286
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: in the food over like two hours. I mean that

287
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: that is an unbelievably cool endeavor for younger kids.

288
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 4: My kids have been there as well, and it's.

289
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 2: Like a backpack adventure for the kids. You know.

290
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: It helps a lot of people, but not only something

291
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: to do. It's for good and it's fun to do.

292
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 3: No, they have fun and in the end, the ability

293
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 3: to donate money if you can, that's tremendous. And the

294
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 3: money goes specifically that's the key here. Unlike some organizations,

295
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 3: the money will actually go to the finished product, which

296
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 3: is food for kids. But I think sometimes if you're

297
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 3: able to put that work in a little sweat equity,

298
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 3: there's some music playing, the kids sing songs and have fun.

299
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: I think it's awesome.

300
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 3: So this is this is a super cool hook mister Fish,

301
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,000

00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 2: his name, wroteople to support they they started a foundation

313
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 2: to support funding scholarships for young kids, football camps, stuff

314
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 2: like that in in kind of the Baltimore area. So

315
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 2: just that family and spending time with them and knowing

316
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 2: what they've gone through and how much they want to

317
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 2: use what he stood for to give back. For me,

318
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 2: that's the spot I will go. So the Kyrie Jackson Foundation,

319
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 2: they're great, wonderful, They are great people and obviously have

320
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:16,480

00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 4: the way we raise money is through campaigns, So when

332
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 4: jersey every single day in December, and you have a

Speaker 2: Is there is there a I could probably? Is there

337
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 2: an aspect of that for one hundred dollars?

338
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 3: Can you tell me why my team is just absolute trash?

339
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 4: I could probably do that too. I think you're good

340
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 4: this week with McBride though, that's my top ranked guy

341
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 4: this week.

342
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 2: No, that's sweet. Fantasycares dot Org. Great stuff, Thank you, Scott,

343
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:22,719
Speaker 2: appreciate it now. As part of this.

344
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 3: I mean that this sounds like a full time venture

345
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 3: in itself. In the end, you still are analyzing, right fantasy.

346
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 2: I mean, when do you sleep?

347
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 4: My brother barely barely.

348
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 2: I work a lot.

349
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 3: So in terms of uh, let's let's do this from

350
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 3: a fantasy standpoint, since you have you.

351
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 2: See tight ends this weekend fantasycares dot org.

352
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 3: That's kind of what I where I was going with

353
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 3: this is from a fantasy standpoint, specifically with tight ends.

354
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 2: You knew who we.

355
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 3: Selected, uh, and of course one game in the books

356
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 3: already from last night. But but what are you looking at?

357
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 3: Maybe at the tight end position this weekend? For those

358
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 3: that you know are like me, I got I think

359
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 3: it's Juwan Johnson to the sitts. I'm having to roll

360
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 3: with no wonder your team is doing what the Kittle's

361
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 3: on a bye week.

362
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 2: He's about ready to win that Arks league. Man.

363
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,160
Speaker 3: But the but but what are we looking at from

364
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 3: the tight end spot this weekend?

365
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 2: Yeah?

366
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 4: Well, with your pick. Your three picks were great. By

367
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 4: the way, all three of those players are in the

368
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 4: top six in my rankings this week. If you're looking

369
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 4: for something a little bit deeper, I think Darren Waller

370
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 4: could end up being a league winner. He's only played

371
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 4: five games.

372
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 2: Wondered about he has came back to right, Yeah, last.

373
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 4: Just came back last week. He's got in those five games,

374
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 4: he's got five end zone targets, four touchdowns, fifteen percent

375
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 4: target share, and in those five games two has only

376
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 4: thrown it into the end zone eight times. Five of

377
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 4: them were to Waller. So when they get down there,

378
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 4: it's Waller time. The other one that it might be

379
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 4: a little deeper, might be on your you know, waiver wire.

380
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 4: Brenton Strange top five matchups every week for the next

381
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 4: four weeks.

382
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: I could have taken him, Yeah, dude, really.

383
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 4: Good matchup against the Colts and he actually gets in

384
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 4: the Colts twice. Your your championship game in week seventeen

385
00:18:58,920 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 4: and this week.

386
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 2: What happened to Johnny Munt.

387
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 3: I thought he was going from the league's best third

388
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 3: tight end to the league's best second tight end in Jacksonville.

389
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,640
Speaker 2: I think Johnny Utt will always be the league's number

390
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 2: thirty best tight end. That's that's this one. I like

391
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 2: Johnny Mutt and I think maybe he could use Johnny Mutt.

392
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 2: But Britain Strange that guy Britain. Strange has been good

393
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 2: for the Jags, and the Jags offense since they acquired

394
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 2: Jacoby Myers has kind of transformed.

395
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 4: So yeah, Strange scored last week. The week before he

396
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 4: had ninety plus yards. He didn't score, but there was

397
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,919
Speaker 4: a play where Trevor Lawrence rolled out and he hit

398
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 4: Parker Washington in the back of the end zone. Strange

399
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:34,199
Speaker 4: was right in front of him. He could have hit

400
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 4: him for a.

401
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: Damn there, Scott. Anything else we need to know before

402
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: we say goodbye?

403
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 4: I can't give one more deep deep tight end of course.

404
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 4: Uh gunner helm for the gunner Helm for.

405
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: Runner helm Tennessee Titans. That's like that Gophers rookie tight

406
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: end who played for Seattle. It wasn't on my game

407
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 1: calling depth chart and he came in and I'm like.

408
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 2: Who know.

409
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, And this guy's kind of going under the radar.

410
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 4: He has nineteen targets in the last three games. He

411
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 4: doesn't have a ton of yards, but those will come.

412
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: He's getting the volume. He's getting tons of looks from

413
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 4: cam Ward.

414
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

415
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 4: And and this this week, with that Browns defense, with

416
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 4: that pass rush, they might have to throw a short

417
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 4: a lot to him.

418
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,800

457
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: Nordo with Washington quarterback Jaden Daniels going full in practice yesterday,

458
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: and I still personally think it's quite dicey that he's

459
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: gonna play, but he went full in practice yesterday. If

460
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,959
Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels off this layoff does play, how will it

461
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: impact the game in good morning?

462
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 2: Well, I'm curious because good morning.

463
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,959
Speaker 3: The limitations of his running in twenty twenty five certainly

464
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 3: a step back in the games that he has.

465
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 2: Played versus what we saw a year ago.

466
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 3: Do they really want to risk him if he's just

467
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 3: cleared for contact with that elbow, to put him out there.

468
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 2: I think it's insane if they do.

469
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 3: But the kid wants to play, and somebody's got to

470
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 3: step in and stop him, frankly, but all the same,

471
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 3: if he does go, If you look statistically Alec for

472
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 3: the most part, you're seeing a similar completion percentage, you're

473
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 3: seeing yards per attempt. I actually think Mariota has done

474
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,959
Speaker 3: a pretty good job in terms of trying to emulate

475
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 3: the best he could what they want to accomplish offensively.

476
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 2: With Washington, he just makes a ton of mistakes and

477
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 2: gives the ball away.

478
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 3: I think you're gonna see if Jaden Daniels plays a

479
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 3: guy that's a little more judicious and smart with the football,

480
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 3: and the athleticism clearly is different. Although Mariota likes to run,

481
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,719
Speaker 3: he certainly is a step up in class to what degree.

482
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 3: Still kind of again based on that injury. How much

483
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,479
Speaker 3: do they let him let it loose? But it's certainly

484
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 3: a guy that's gonna turn the ball over less and

485
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 3: I think he can make some throws that Mariota could

486
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 3: only dream of.

487
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of nuts, but I think he's gonna play.

488
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 2: I really do. And he is to your point, he's

489
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 2: a better decision maker, he's more accurate, he plays in

490
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 2: rhythm better. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they do

491
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 2: kind of a two package type deal where Mariota's in

492
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,479
Speaker 2: for some quarterback run game in the red zone. This

493
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 2: is a very creative Washington offense. So it's gonna it's

494
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 2: gonna push Brian Flor's unit to be really good on Sunday.

495
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 2: I believe that regardless of who's playing the position. And

496
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 2: then I expected to be Jayden.

497
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 3: I mean did they did they have to kind of

498
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 3: handcuff him in the pocket though, I mean given the

499
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 3: elbow bit.

500
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 2: Like or if he's cleared.

501
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 3: I mean again, that's part of the conversation that leads

502
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 3: into him being cleared is how are they gonna let

503
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 3: him be himself in that spot?

504
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: Great question, and we have KFA and shirts for those

505
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: who ask questions, and the first is going to be,

506
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: what's your name?

507
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 2: Where you're from? Wayne from Savage? All right, got your shirt? Brother?

508
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 2: What's the question? If JJ is not the answer, what's

509
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 2: what are we gonna do?

510
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: If mccarth We're gonna let Nordo answer that one simply

511
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: because that's part of the that case is going to

512
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,439
Speaker 1: be tried. Yeah, about twenty minutes from now, it will be.

513
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: That's all we can say. Take it where you want the.

514
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 3: Con Yeah, Aleck Aleck Lewis had has an answer for you,

515
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,719
Speaker 3: and you're gonna get that during the eleven AM segment.

516
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 3: If JJ is not the guy, I think, and I

517
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 3: personally don't believe that that question is going to be

518
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 3: answered in twenty twenty five.

519
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 2: I think, whether it's good, it's bad, it's ugly.

520
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 3: Over these final five, he's still going to be on

521
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 3: our roster, he's still going to be competing for his

522
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 3: starting role next season, but at some point a decision

523
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 3: would have to be made if he's not the guy.

524
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 3: It's a combination for me of at some point you're

525
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 3: gonna have a veteran, probably sooner than later, that competes

526
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 3: for that job, and then you're gonna have to go

527
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 3: back to the well. You will have to draft high

528
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 3: and take another swing. And that's something this franchise hasn't

529
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 3: done enough of over the last twenty years. Really, is

530
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 3: when they have an opportunity and the guys there, let's

531
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 3: grab that guy that maybe can start in two or

532
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 3: three years. We've been chasing our tails for two decades

533
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 3: at this position, and so I just don't think that

534
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 3: this is a thing that's going to be solved over

535
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 3: the final five. It's not a clear enough answer for you.

536
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 3: I apologize for that. But whether or not he balls out,

537
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 3: he goes free balling, or he fails miserably, he's gonna

538
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 3: be here in twenty twenty six, competing for the QB

539
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 3: one spot.

540
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 2: Vike's bites provided by Thousand.

541
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 3: Hills Lifetime, Graves, grass Fed, Puffy, what's your name?

542
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 2: Where you're from? Troy from soccerby Hello Troy? What's your question?

543
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 2: Question for Nordo? Being a lifelong Mancato person?

544
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, would it be like to have your friend

545
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: paul in and call a Super Bowl win for the Bikings?

546
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 2: Oh? Are you kidding me?

547
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,439
Speaker 3: I mean just as a towny, I mean going up

548
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 3: stadium hill and sticking my at one point, I used

549
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 3: to be skinny and I'd stick my hand through the

550
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 3: chain link fence and I'm dapping up Chris Doleman and

551
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 3: Chris and Johnny Randall and Randall mc daniel. Getting to

552
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 3: see Moss making one handed catches and cato during training camp.

553
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 3: It means that this team is really and I want

554
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 3: the Wolves to win titles. I want the Twins to

555
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 3: figure out how to be a real franchise, and want

556
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 3: the Wild the hoisted Cup. This is a team, frankly,

557
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 3: that I am still emotionally compelled by. It would mean

558
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 3: a ton. I mean my kids and my family. That's

559
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 3: real world stuff from a sports standpoint. Seeing a Lombardi

560
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 3: raised for the Purple and Gold. Yeah, I can't even

561
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 3: articulate or fathom what that would look like at this

562
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 3: point to.

563
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 2: Be too amazing. What's your name? Where are you from?

564
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 2: Dylan from Bloomington? Give it to us. What do you

565
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 2: think we should do in the offseason when it comes

566
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 2: to resigning players with expired contracts. You know we have

567
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 2: a lot and we have account spaces lea as well.

568
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 2: You guys got that players with expired contracts? What do

569
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,439
Speaker 2: you think that's pretty good. I mean, there are a

570
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 2: lot of players that fit this kind of conversation. One

571
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 2: of them will be Jalen Naylor, and Jalen Naylor's gonna

572
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 2: be a free agent after his rookie contract. I've expected

573
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 2: that he's had a great year. With the costs that

574
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 2: Jordan Addison is probably gonna require, it's hard to expect

575
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 2: that Jalen Naylor would be back. But I personally, this

576
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 2: is my opinion. I would consider moving Jordan Addison and

577
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 2: resigning Jalen Naylor. That's something that I would consider. That'd

578
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 2: be my own opinion. I know that's really bold, that's

579
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 2: really hot, but that's where I am with that. And

580
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: then to that question, I mean, there are a lot

581
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 2: of guys. TJ. Hockinson and his contract, Javon Hargrave and

582
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 2: his contract, Ryan Kelly and his contract, Aaron Jones and

583
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 2: his contract. This is going to be a very busy

584
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 2: offseason with a lot of decisions to be made, a

585
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 2: lot of cap massaging to sort through, and we will

586
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 2: get to all those conversations at some point down the line.

587
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 2: And podcast d alex Lewis Show but nine and Nude

588
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 2: will probably be spending an hour every single day on

589
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 2: what might be possible with these guys. So it's a

590
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 2: good question, and uh, we'll talk a lot about it

591
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 2: at some point.

592
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,880

Speaker 2: your what's your name? Where you're from? Codyamos L love

606
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 2: your hat? What's your question?

607
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 4: Do you?

608
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 2: Do you think j McCarthy is an NFO cowboy? Staring

609
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 2: quite back? If not, who do you think we should

610
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 2: get in the offstagon?

611
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: Let's let's let's keep it to the first part. Is

612
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy at the end of the equation a National

613
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: Football League starting caliber starting quarterback and The only thing

614
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: I'll add is something we went through nine to noon

615
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: yesterday with Ben Leeber, who played with Drew Brees. And

616
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 1: this is in no way saying JJ McCarthy's going.

617
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 2: To be Drew Brees what if he does?

618
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,959
Speaker 1: But right, I mean, it took Drew Brees until his

619
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: fourth year to not have more interceptions than touchdowns, not

620
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: throw fifty six fifty seven percent.

621
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 2: This thing is hard and it takes time. So that's

622
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 2: the only context I can add. What do you guys,

623
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 2: What can you guys add? The very quick I just

624
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 2: want to reiterate something Nordo said because I believe it

625
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 2: very strongly too, Like if you're making a declaration on

626
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,479
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy through six games as a starter, that to

627
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 2: me is foolish, Like it takes a long time and

628
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 2: a lot of development to assess where a guy is.

629
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 2: And even as we get through these five games, if

630
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy can stay healthy through these five games, which

631
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 2: is a question onto itself, please, I don't believe at

632
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 2: that point, through eleven games you'd have a full evaluation

633
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 2: of what he can be will be. But to answer

634
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 2: the question to this point, the production is no, we're

635
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 2: close to what you need from a starting quarterback in

636
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 2: the NFL. It doesn't say anything about what it's gonna be.

637
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 2: And that's why each week it's going to be interesting

638
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 2: to evaluate where he is.

639
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, and just simply enough, he's not an NFL caliber

640
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 3: quarterback yet.

641
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 2: No, and well, but that doesn't mean he can't be right.

642
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 3: And you're going on trial next segment for a preposterous

643
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 3: idea that you had during your podcast.

644
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 2: I'm excited for that trial thing. Last one. What's your name?

645
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 2: Where are you from?

646
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 3: Oh?

647
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 2: Carol from man Cato. Hello Carol, what do you have

648
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 2: on your mind?

649
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: Let's go?

650
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 2: OK.

651
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 3: Just want to send greetings to Adam Feeling and say

652
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 3: thank you for your time, service, and professionalism in Minnesota.

653
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: If you didn't hear it, we had an ode to

654
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: Adam Feeling for his time, his professionalism and performance he

655
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: gave two Minnesota Vikings fans for many, many years.

656
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 2: Roundup applause for at one nine.

657
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 3: That's southern Minnesota sensibilities right there. I appreciate that. Mike's

658
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 3: bys provided by Thousand Hills Lifetime, grays Grass Fed give

659
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 3: me your best ten seconds. We're going to go back

660
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 3: and forth here.

661
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: On these alec First ten seconds is Christian Darras saw

662
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: the most important player on the team.

663
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 2: I'll say Justin Jefferson's the most important player on the team,

664
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 2: but Christien's probably number two.

665
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 1: Nordo, who would you rather have? And why the kicker?

666
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 1: Will reikerd or Dallas? Mister automatic? Brandon Aubrey twenty seven

667
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: of twenty nine this year with a sixty five.

668
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 3: Long Well, our guy's been just a statistically good special.

669
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 3: I'm not a role type guy, but I would pick

670
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 3: Rikerd absolutely every day of the week over mister Aubrey.

671
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: And lastly for Alec Lewis thirty seconds on this thirty

672
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 1: For those who have read it and don't completely understand it,

673
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 1: what does all of the with JJ McCarthy, all of

674
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: the let it lose free ball in you know, we're

675
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: mechanics to the side until the offseason, Like, what does

676
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: all of that mean?

677
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 4: Yeah?

678
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 2: I think it's just like enough of putting clutter in

679
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 2: this guy's head and just let him go out and

680
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 2: do the thing that he's done since he was a

681
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 2: kid and rip it like you're not. JJ said this

682
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 2: yesterday and it's something that I mean, I know has

683
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 2: been talked about on the afternoon shows a lot, but

684
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 2: you can't change your swing on Friday of the Masters,

685
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 2: like you enter the tournament and you're in the tournament.

686
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 2: You gotta play with what you've got. That Does that

687
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 2: mean it's gonna be perfect on Sunday? I don't think

688
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 2: it's going to mean that. But does that, you know,

689
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 2: removing the clutter from his mind allow him to play

690
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 2: free and allow in December? By the way, right, it's

691
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 2: it's it's definitely an interesting one. But if he's inaccurate,

692
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 2: then you can you can understand that they would they

693
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 2: were trying to do what they could to get him

694
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 2: to be accurate. I mean, we'll see look like am

695
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 2: I do I expect this new shift in ideology to

696
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 2: now make JJ McCarthy look like Tom Brady? No, I

697
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 2: do not. Does it allow him to play with reaction instinctive? Hopefully,

698
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 2: hopefully we'll see free balling.

699
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: Those are vikes fits. This is nine to noon and

700
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: we're back after this. A Buffalo Wild wing Savage thanks

701
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 1: everybody for me and so kind. He Wolve's got the

702
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 1: money last night against the New Orleans Pelicans. Yeah, the

703
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: Minnesota Wild have the audacity to lose a hockey game

704
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: for the years they lose to the Calgary Flames for one,

705
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: and both those teams will be back in action relatively soon.

706
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 1: That's how the NBA and the NHL worked. Vikings and

707
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: Commanders Sunday at noon k f a m. Last night,

708
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions beat the Dallas Cowboys at Ford Field.

709
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 2: Alex, what'd you think of that Lions victory last night? Yeah,

710
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,760
Speaker 2: the Lions. It was a good night for the Lions.

711
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 2: I didn't think their defense was spectacular, but offensively they

712
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 2: really had it going. I was surprised am and Ro played,

713
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 2: don't think he even practiced during the week, and then

714
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 2: had a huge catch to Iceed. Jamir Gibbs does what

715
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 2: he does. Thought. David Montgomery looked really fresh and really good,

716
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 2: and the offensive line held up enough. So it was

717
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:07,919
Speaker 2: a good win for the Lions at home. They really

718
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 2: needed the win. I think they're eight and five now,

719
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 2: mm hmm. But the defense, it sounds like Brian Branch

720
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 2: might have an achilles injury. Terry on Arnold's done for

721
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 2: the season. Oh wow, they still haven't gotten Kirby Joseph back.

722
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 2: They haven't gotten Kirby Joseph back. DJ Reid had a

723
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 2: nice pick, but that defense is just gonna. It's just gettable.

724
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 2: And their offensive line and the interior is not what

725
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 2: it's been. And and I also don't think from a

726
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 2: to not have Ben Johnson from a brain perspective orchestrating

727
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 2: the offensive operations just not the.

728
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: Same team to help me with this because I didn't

729
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: watch the game. Why is George Pickens getting slaughtered on

730
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: social media? Were they're like obvious things he did last

731
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 1: night just not.

732
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 2: A ton of I mean, Norda, if you watched that,

733
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 2: you saw probably.

734
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 3: Just didn't look like there were two or three in

735
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 3: particular that were glaring as if he was absolutely going

736
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 3: through the motions the way that you know, maybe you

737
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 3: would have laughed twenty years ago. Go about Moss on

738
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 3: an obvious run play where the.

739
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 2: Ball is snapped and he just kind of chills.

740
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: A red hot team that just beat the Chiefs and

741
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 1: came back and beat the Eagles, and the other guy's problem.

742
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 2: The other thing is ceedee Lamb goes out of the

743
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 2: game with the concussion. Ye, it's George Pickens opportunity at

744
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 2: that point to stamp I am the number one guy,

745
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 2: I am the focal point. You can't double team me,

746
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 2: and it felt like, you know, whereas Justin Jefferson with

747
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 2: a lot of these double teams, uses that kind of

748
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,879
Speaker 2: as fuel and knows how to it felt like that

749
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,399
Speaker 2: kind of forced George Pickens just out of the game

750
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 2: and shut him down. And it was kind of an

751
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 2: interesting reflection of for me of like, you know, Justin

752
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 2: Jefferson and how he navigates that stuff is worth complimenting

753
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 2: because you see other guys just it totally removed them

754
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,439
Speaker 2: from seemingly the mental frame of the game.

755
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 1: Nord, are you first on this big NFC North a

756
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,280
Speaker 1: collision this weekend Chicago at Green Bay Packers favored by six?

757
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 2: Who do you like? And why? Yeah?

758
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 3: I just a you know, fraudulent. Maybe might be too heavy.

759
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 3: There's a lot of fraud in the air these days locally.

760
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 3: But we're talking about the Chicago Bears for a moment

761
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 3: and a top the NFC as they are. I just

762
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 3: don't think well done. I don't think they stay there.

763
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,240
Speaker 3: And the Packers impressed me. If they didn't have the injuries,

764
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 3: I'd still be talking about Detroit as the team of

765
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 3: the North. I think the Packers are gonna steamroll the

766
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 3: Bears in some regard, and a big part of that

767
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 3: is what you're seeing, specifically defensively, what they're able to

768
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 3: get out of that front and hide and mask some

769
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 3: of the deficiencies in terms of takeaways on the back

770
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 3: end defensively but offensively, I just have to give them

771
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 3: credit for finding their way through injuries and all of

772
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 3: that along the way.

773
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 2: I think the Packers roll. Yes, it's a fascinating game.

774
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 2: With Ben Johnson took the job, he said he loved

775
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 2: beating Matt Lafleur twice a year in Detroit. Kind of

776
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 2: a weird little shot at Matt Lafleor So there will

777
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,800
Speaker 2: definitely be some extra juice in this game. I feel

778
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 2: like Jordan Love is playing phenomenally right now. Kirsten Watson

779
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 2: with that offense has really kind of opened it up

780
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 2: a little bit. And then the Bears run game is

781
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 2: beautiful to watch. I mean, what their front is doing,

782
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 2: the motion, the scheme. Like Caleb Williams, I don't feel

783
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 2: like has played incredible, but that run game has hoisted

784
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 2: that team offensively on its shoulders. And it's not a

785
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 2: surprise you talk you hear about from players inside that

786
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 2: locker room. They talk about how Ben Johnson leads the

787
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 2: run installs. How he has passion as he's installing the

788
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 2: run game. How he makes it fun as he's installing

789
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 2: the run game. And so I kind of would expect

790
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 2: a pretty close game. But I'll take the Packers as well.

791
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 2: I'm with you.

792
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:41,720
Speaker 1: And lastly, you're the you are the elite college football

793
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,719
Speaker 1: mind in this covenant. Such a good weekend, Indy at

794
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,879
Speaker 1: Ohio or Indiana Ohio State.

795
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,839
Speaker 2: Ohio State's favored by four.

796
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 1: Not asking you for a wagering bench on this, but

797
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 1: how do you or are You can offer one if

798
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: you want, but how do you see the game?

799
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,760
Speaker 2: And why? Yeah, if this game is close, if Indiana

800
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 2: can keep it close, to me, it will only further

801
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 2: the amount of respect and appreciation that you have for

802
00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 2: Signetti and Mendoza and that entire team. But Ohio State,

803
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:14,799
Speaker 2: the talent that they have is absurd. The defense has potentially,

804
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 2: I don't know, three first round picks. The offense has

805
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 2: multiple first round picks. They kind of look like Georgia

806
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 2: prospect lies.

807
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 3: Remember Georgia with historical numbers of people drafted over that

808
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 3: two to three year stretch.

809
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 2: That's kind of Ohio State right now. Yeah, I mean,

810
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 2: Caleb Downs to safety is an unbelievable player. Rvel Reese

811
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: the edge rusher is incredible. Julian saying their young quarterback

812
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 2: is one of the best college football, most refined, precise,

813
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 2: accurate college football quarterbacks that I've seen in a long time.

814
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 2: So I would not be surprised if Ohio State wins

815
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:48,840
Speaker 2: by double digits. All right, oh go ahead.

816
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 3: Well, it's just it's crazy in that matchup because as

817
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 3: a Gophers fan, I'm watching a team that was non

818
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 3: competitive on the road and specifically non competitive against some

819
00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 3: big timers. But you know, Indiana rolling the team's that

820
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 3: they're supposed to and even stained I mean, staying is

821
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 3: close and finding ways to win the others.

822
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 2: That is the only thing that keeps me from.

823
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 3: Thinking, Wow, this is a double digit this is so obvious.

824
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 3: In the Buckeyes, I do think they win, but Signetti,

825
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 3: I mean, just most impressive thing, and maybe in college

826
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,359
Speaker 3: football right now the two year stretch that we've seen

827
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 3: from the.

828
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 2: Hoots, and I will say, big game for the quarterback

829
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 2: in Indiana as he's trying to establish that he is

830
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 2: a top five pick. Fernando Mendoza, like against Matt Patricia's defense.

831
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,359
Speaker 1: That's a huge game for him. All Right, you say

832
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,320
Speaker 1: amazing weekend in college football. You know a thousand times

833
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: more about it than me. Third rank Georgia tenth Alabama.

834
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 1: That's tomorrow at three o'clock. What do you think of

835
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: that one?

836
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I'm an Alabama side of that. What's huge? Well,

837
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 2: it's just EYU Texas Tech. What's the BYU? Texas Tech

838
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 2: is a great game. It's five and eleven, right, it's

839
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 2: a Texas Tech is a really talented team. Tonight you've

840
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 2: got North Texas against Tulane. Eric Morris's North Texas squad

841
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 2: with Drew asked the maker at quarterback. I'm going one.

842
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 2: We could go real deep here from the college football perspective,

843
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 2: but I don't want it. Georgia Georgia Alabama. I mean

844
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 2: I don't really get tired of it, but a lot

845
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 2: of people understandably do. What's the name of that rivalry?

846
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 2: Does it have a name?

847
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: No, it's just so the cocktail party bit is Georgia Florida.

848
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 2: It's cocktail Parties Georgia, Florida, Iron Bowl, Alabama Auburn. But

849
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 2: I call the Georgia Alabama the excellent smatchup. It's just

850
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 2: two really good, really well coached teams. Is it a base?

851
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 3: I mean, how many times does this happen for the

852
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:31,960
Speaker 3: for the SEC title?

853
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,360

854
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,359

855
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 2: all the other SEC fans are really tired of it,

856
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 2: and I don't blame them.

857
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,400
