Well, actually three, but five sounds like more 16 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 5: than four. Question number one, It's time now for it's. 17 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 4: A low down. It's in twenty down. 18 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 19 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: The biggest thing in Iowa is the Hawkey has demolished 20 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: the Gophers forty one to three on Saturdays. Through their 21 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: first four possessions. The Gophers had one yard, while the 22 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: Hawkey said thirty one points. 23 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 4: Oh really. 24 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,119 Speaker 1: Drake Lindsay was picked off three times, including a pick six, 25 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: and the Gophers ran for just twenty four yards on 26 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: twenty five carries common Where does that game rank among 27 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: the most embarrassing performances under PJ flex Watch? 28 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 4: Well, I think it has to be. 29 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 2: I mean, it wasn't there a loss last year or 30 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 2: the year before in one of what was supposed to 31 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 2: be a cupcake game and we got beat. I think 32 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: I think there was a cupcake game we lost which 33 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: was embarrassing. This, I mean, it wasn't as if you know, 34 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: Iowa was, this is a powerhouse. Both teams came into 35 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 2: the game five and two overall, both teams came into 36 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 2: the game three and one in the Big Ten. You 37 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: would have thought it was a relatively evenly matched game. 38 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: The Gophers were coming off a I would call it 39 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 2: a mild upset, and now it looks like gargangeous more 40 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 2: than mild when they beat then twenty fifth rank Nebraska. 41 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: I will say this, I do thank the Gophers because 42 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: of the one sided nature of the game. I was 43 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: able to get outside and do some of my fall 44 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 2: clean up. I intended to watch the entire game. I 45 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 2: thought this should be fun. It's two teams, as they 46 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: just mentioned, with identical records. They've been playing for over 47 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: one hundred years as one of the oldest driver. Yes, 48 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: it's one of the oldest rivalries in all of college football. 49 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: Playing for the Pig and we played like pigs. I mean, 50 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 2: we played like yellow belly pigs. 51 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 4: That was so bad. And then. 52 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 2: Fleck after the game said, I told those guys that 53 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 2: game doesn't mean we have a bad team or a 54 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: bad program. 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 4: What does it mean? 56 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: Then? I mean, you know, and again you know there 57 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 2: you'll you'll occasionally have a lemon or a stinker. We 58 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 2: know we talked about with the Wolves occasionally sometimes you 59 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 2: just won't play as well. But that was just so bad. 60 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: And if you'll remember they played even though they beat Purdue, 61 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 2: they they played poorly against I don't know what to 62 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: make of the of the team now and where the 63 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 2: program is. But we've talked forever about, well the golfers 64 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: ever get to the point where they're maybe not Ohio 65 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 2: State like, but at least be like Wisconsin and Iowa 66 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 2: have been in the past where every few years there 67 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 2: were you know, there was a time, no Wisconsin's bad again, 68 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: there was a time Wisconsin was really really good, right, 69 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: And why can't we get to that point? And I 70 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: don't know but it was. 71 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: And I was similar to you in which I had 72 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: youth hockey all day Saturday. So after the kids get down, 73 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, all right, I'm gonna watch the Wild game 74 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: on DVR, go for football game on DVR. I know 75 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be up late to watch both finish the 76 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: Wild which that one was not great either. Didn't enjoy 77 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: that one. And then early second quarter, it's thirty one nothing. 78 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: I'm out. 79 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm not saying up till twelve thirty eight, twelve thirty 80 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: to watch this game, and. 81 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 4: There was nothing else to see. 82 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: They I guess the second half was pretty much a push, 83 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 2: but what's the difference when you were down thirty four 84 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 2: to three or whatever it was? So, yeah, are thirty 85 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 2: one nothing at the half? Whatever it was, and then 86 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 2: you know the second half was a push. 87 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 4: But who cares? I mean, that's that's the game is 88 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 4: two halves and. 89 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 2: The number you had is the one that sticks out 90 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: more than any the Gophers had. Did you say, was 91 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: it one yard game? They had one yard through four possessions, 92 00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: had one yard. They had thirty one. 93 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 4: They had thirty one points. We had one yard. They 94 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 4: had thirty one points. Uh. I think the young kid 95 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 4: at quarterback. Is it Drake Lindsay? Is that his name? Yeah? 96 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 4: I think he's got a chance to be good. 97 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: I think he's a he's a quality quarterback, at least 98 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: he has been to this point. But he wasn't very 99 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: good on No and I and again, you know, give 100 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 2: credit where credits due. I Will played really well, but 101 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 2: that was that was an embarrassment, really. 102 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 5: Question number two programming predigaments. 103 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. 104 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: The La Dodgers host the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 105 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: three in the World Series tonight at seven pm.

I think I 117 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 2: might watching gcons with those times, I think gcans probably 118 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 2: be more my cup of tea. I don't I the 119 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 2: World Series has been you know, Game one was I 120 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 2: was totally caught off guard. Uh, Toronto's bats were they 121 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 2: were down to nothing, and then there was a history 122 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 2: made in Game one. Somebody for Toronto is the name Barger, Barger, 123 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: whatever his name is. There was a there's a player 124 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 2: for Toronto who hit the very the first ever World 125 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: Series pinch hit Grand Slam, and they had with three 126 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 2: homers and they just crushed the Dodgers, and the Dodgers 127 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 2: came back and Yamamoto had another brilliant performances. A second 128 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 2: complete game Amy's pitched in postseason. He did it during 129 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 2: the the NLCS, So I might watch a little of 130 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 2: that and it'd be interesting to see how the Wolves, 131 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: I mean they they they they played well enough against 132 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 2: an under manned Indiana team to win without Anthony Edwards. 133 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,559 Speaker 2: But I don't know if the team at that time, 134 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 2: if they it was thought it was maybe just a 135 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: one off. I you know, he's he's out for this 136 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: game and he'll be back. But as tend to be 137 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: announced earlier today, the breaking news is Edwards is out 138 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 2: for two weeks and it must prop that and then 139 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: they're playing eight games in the next weeks, so we'll 140 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: see how the team responds tonight. So I'd probably watch, uh, 141 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: We'll watch an episode or two of Jigans, and probably 142 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 2: check on the World Series and the Wolves game tonight. 143 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 5: Question number three NFL Noddle. 144 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: The Packers beat the Steelers thirty five twenty five last 145 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: night in Pittsburgh Aaron Rodgers against his old team. Common 146 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that game, Well, I spread. 147 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 2: Swing, I get I said it was the easiest pick 148 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 2: of the weekend. I thought Pittsburgh would win, and they 149 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: looked very good in the first half. They had a 150 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 2: sixteen to seven lead at the half. There was I 151 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: don't think this changed the momentum in the game. But 152 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 2: there was a play in which a defensive lineman for 153 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 2: Green Bay was clearly. 154 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 4: Jumped off sides. 155 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 2: And you know how Rogers loves getting the free play, Yeah, 156 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 2: snapped the ball. 157 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 4: He throws down field us incomplete. But the officials didn't 158 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 4: throw the fly really and it was obvious. 159 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 2: And so then the officials gathered together to talk about it, 160 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 2: and they went to Pereira or whoever. 161 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 4: It is you know official, you know that's with the. 162 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: Network, and he goes, rarely will they ever throw a 163 00:08:58,600 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 2: will they now throw a fly? 164 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 4: Gone? That? I don't know. 165 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: He basically it sounded like he wasn't sure if it 166 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 2: ever happened before, and they didn't. They just said no, 167 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 2: no penalty. Now that means Pittsburgh had to punt the ball. 168 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 2: Did I don't think that changed the outcome. 169 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 4: But you never know. 170 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 2: But green Bay's for real Tennaby Jordan Love was simply 171 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 2: brilliant again last night. And I don't think I need 172 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 2: remind people again that there were there were a lot 173 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 2: of green Bay fans and a lot of NFL followers 174 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 2: that thought green Bay made a terrible mistake drafting Jordan Love, 175 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 2: that they should have went and got out wide. 176 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 4: Receiver for for for Rogers and like it could try 177 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 4: to make a push. 178 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 2: But Jordan Love, I think he's he was a really 179 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 2: good last night again. 180 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 4: Coming what surprise. 181 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: AFC team is more likely to be a big game 182 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: contender Indianapolis or New England. 183 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 2: It's hard to argue with the Colts, I mean, because 184 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 2: not only they are winning, but they're winning by largely. 185 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 4: They're throttling teams. 186 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: And Jonathan Taylor is basically this year's version of Saquon 187 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: Barkley from last year. Yes, correct, and I mean just 188 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: every game two three touchdowns, had. 189 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 4: Three yesterday, putting an eighty yard run. 190 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 2: I think he's probably the early front runner for League MVP, 191 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: though I put Drake May right there too, sure, because 192 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 2: Drake May has been simply astonishing. So yeah, I and 193 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 2: Danny Dimes has been, you know, and again I've not watched, 194 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 2: matter of fact, Douce and I watched some of the 195 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 2: Colts game because I have not watched much Indianapolis Colts 196 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: football this year. Sure, primetime games they're not, but they 197 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 2: they look very good and and Danny Dimes looks solid. 198 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 4: And I don't know, that's that's a good question I would. 199 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 4: I don't know. I think they're both going to be there. 200 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 4: I don't, I don't, I don't. I think I think 201 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 4: they both it's easy. 202 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: To say now, and one team is six and two 203 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: in the other seven and one that they're both will 204 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 2: make postseason play. 205 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 4: But they're both really good. 206 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 2: I don't think they're I don't think it's some smoke 207 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: and mirrors with those two teams. 208 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 4: I think they're both quality clubs. 209 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: The Baltimore Ravens without Lamar Jackson beat the Chicago Bears 210 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: thirty to sixteen. Are you surprised common that the Ravens 211 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: took down the Bears without Lamar So? Lamar Jackson is 212 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: a former first round pick MVP candidate for the Baltimore Ravens. 213 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 4: He's been out with an injury. They're down to one 214 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 4: in five. 215 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: They've struggled without him, but they beat the Chicago Bears 216 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: yesterday at home. 217 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 4: I was aware of that. 218 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 2: I watched for and mat fact I was that was 219 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 2: the game I was interested in because it's an NFC 220 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 2: war team. 221 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 4: The Bears were I know how they won those four games. 222 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: Going to be the competition wasn't very good because the 223 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 2: Ravens aren't even that And did you see the Ravens schedule. 224 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 4: It's a little lighter coming in. It's really like they 225 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 4: could make a run. Yeah, they could make a run here, 226 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 4: So I guess you wouldn't write them off they get 227 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 4: Lamar back. 228 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Bears, I think there's improvement there with with 229 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: with a young quarterback and the new head coach. 230 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 4: But yeah, I don't think their time is has come. 231 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 5: And that's it for today's edition of five questions, well 232 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 5: actually three questions, but five. 233 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 4: Sounds like more than four.

Sarah McClelland's headline says San 254 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 2: Jose's Macklin Celebrini scored on a breakaway to end an 255 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 2: extra period that the home team had dominated, leaving the 256 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 2: Wild with one victory in their past seven games. 257 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 4: TENEB What ales Wild or where do we start? First off? 258 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: I get the San Jose Sharks are lowly, but Macklin 259 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: Celebrini is the real deal. 260 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 4: That guy, he's legit. He's a young player. 261 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: I think last year he was a rookie and so whatever, 262 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: whenever he's on the ice, they are a threat, and 263 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: they were throughout the game and even in the overtime. 264 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: I think the Wild had possession of the puck for 265 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: the first three and a half minutes overtime and the 266 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: I don't even think all of the San Jose Sharks 267 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: that started the overtime even got a chance to change. 268 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: But Celebrini came out right before he scored that goal. 269 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: He I think he was the one guy that was 270 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: able to get on the ice after the while they 271 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: had the puck for three and a half minutes with 272 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: multiple chances shots and he's got one break goes down 273 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:47,479 Speaker 1: on a breakaway and scores. Yeah, it's it's pretty frustrating. 274 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: They can't keep the buck out of their own net. 275 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: And I get it, they've had a little bit of 276 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: puck luck against him, right. Two of the goals last 277 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: night on Balstad went off a shin pads and into 278 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: his own net. The game before, there were some puck 279 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: luck issues against Gustafson. But when you're consistently giving up 280 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: what appears to be four or five goals every game, now. 281 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 4: You're in trouble. 282 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: And we're aware that the Wild don't have enough scoring 283 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: to be able to they can score against the San 284 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: Jose Sharks. So the Sharks are so bad defensively that 285 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: that is a game that you can stay in there 286 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: and play a five to five game with. But generally speaking, 287 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: the rest of the league the while, they're not going 288 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: to be able to put up those types of going 289 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: to have that much firepower against, and so they better 290 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: clean it up defensively and goaltending wise. 291 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 4: Here pretty shortly. 292 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: I know we're just ten games in, but you do 293 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: this over the next ten games and that season is 294 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: going to get away from me pretty quickly. 295 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 4: Couple of a couple of being stuck out like a 296 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 4: sore blocker pad to me. 297 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 2: It says the Sharks Billy Ecklin banked in a shot 298 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 2: off Wild defenseman Jonas Brodan. 299 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 4: On the power play. Yeah, five twenty eight in the 300 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 4: first period. 301 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: That deficit double at thirteen thirty five, when Timothy Liligrin gobbled. 302 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 4: Up Carill Capizo. 303 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: Caprice Off's clearing attempt and then skated by caprice Off 304 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 2: and route to the net, where's rebound was buried by 305 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 2: Michael Misa. Misa, sure he his first NHL goal. Then uh, 306 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 2: Rossi's to the pastor third. 307 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 4: But then it says Caprizo poked the puck. 308 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 2: Past San Jose defense and dropped the past Rossi for 309 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 2: equalizer for one time. 310 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 4: But then it went on to. 311 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: Say Caprizo another caprice Off turnover led to Ecklan getting 312 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 2: behind the Wild to wire a puck by goaltender, yesper Volstead. 313 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 4: Volstead. Two turnovers by Arguy caprice Off. What's that all about? Yes? 314 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: The first one he was kind of in his own 315 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: corner and just kind of a soft clear to him. 316 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: I don't know what he was doing, because this is 317 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: very own caprice Off like to just kind of throw 318 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 1: the puck needlessly and he throws it out to him 319 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: at the blue line, and then he is now in 320 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: a position to defend him one on one. And we're 321 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: not gonna act like Caroca Priesof's the great defensive player. 322 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: But he just got absolutely let's just say he had 323 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 1: his ankle. He got his ankles broken. This is what 324 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: the kids would say. And then the second one he 325 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 1: turned over. I actually think the play he was trying 326 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: to make was the right play. He just didn't get 327 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: him as much on the pass as he needed to 328 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: get on it. He just kind of made a softer 329 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 1: pass than he needed to be and then all of 330 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: a sudden, you know we're out of position. Bang bang 331 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: make a pass. So yeah, I mean, you look at 332 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: the four goals last night. Four of the five goals 333 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: for San Jose. Two are just puck luck off your 334 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: shin pads. Two are really bad turnovers by Caroro caapriceot 335 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: now in Capriceov's defense or lock their rong. He also 336 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: proved a lot of the offense that gave you a 337 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: chance lesson. You know, he three assists and he's directly 338 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: helping you on a lot of those plays. So he 339 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: did at least make amends on the offensive side of things. 340 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, two really bad turnovers out of him, and 341 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: you can't have that out of your best because I'll. 342 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 2: Get text messages here at the branch on Brian Kaiff 343 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 2: and text line from. 344 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 4: Members of the basketball community that will say you're. 345 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 2: Always picking on Edwards and the Wolds, but never a 346 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 2: discouraging word about Caprice off And I have to admit 347 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 2: I haven't been paying his close attention to the Minnesota 348 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 2: Wild or career Caprice office. I once did, but that 349 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 2: did stick out to me that he had a couple 350 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 2: of turnovers. 351 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: Is he. 352 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 4: Just a okay defensive play? 353 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 2: Is he a liability to defensively or just he's just 354 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 2: really I know, he brings so much offensively. 355 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 4: I get it, you have to take the good with 356 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 4: the bad or the bad with the good. But is 357 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 4: he not a very good defensive player or what would 358 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 4: you say? 359 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: You know, I wouldn't put him at like oh Vechkin 360 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: levels back in the day in terms of being a 361 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: liability in your own zone. And mostly when he's on 362 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: the ice, they're in the offensive zone. I mean, they 363 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: don't they don't spend a lot of shifts in the 364 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: defensive zone when he plays, Yeah, I would just say 365 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: he's probably okay at best defensively. Now, where he is 366 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: good is on breakouts in your own zone. He can 367 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: make the right pass to get you out. And you know, 368 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: in terms of in terms of maintaining possession and getting 369 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: the puck up the ice, he's elite in that regard. 370 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: But yes, if our team doesn't have the puck, is 371 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: he elite defensively? No, I don't think he's awful. I 372 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: don't know if i'd call him a liability. And both 373 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: of the mistakes that were made you were both turnovers 374 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: of the puck. That was him with the puck on 375 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 1: his stick. Now in the one he got beat defensively 376 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: after he turned it over. But generally speaking he is. 377 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: There's no one else on the team you want to 378 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 1: have with the fuck on a ship rather than Caroka Priceoft. 379 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna sweat that too much. What we 380 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: saw yesterday was pretty rare for Caroca Priceoft. 381 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 2: When when we got out from under the Suitter Preezy contracts, 382 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: we're hoping that would allow us to secure the services 383 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: of some high end free agents. Of course, what happened 384 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 2: during the offseason what I'm told is those high end 385 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: free agents most of them re signed with the teams 386 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 2: they were with. So now the logic becomes, hey, we 387 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 2: get to trade deadline time. We might have some money 388 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 2: to buy to to trade for players and be able 389 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 2: to pay them, but with the way we're playing right now, 390 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 2: that's we need to do something pretty quicker come trade 391 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 2: deadline time. We're not going to be there'd be no 392 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 2: reason to make trades if we're not in contention. 393 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 4: Right now, we don't seem to be very good. Yeah, I. 394 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: Don't want to do the sky as falling bit yet, 395 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: just because I have seen a lot of Minnesota Wild 396 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: seasons that are just absolute roller coasters where they go 397 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: through ten games stretches where you think they're one of 398 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: the best teams in hockey and then it falls apart. 399 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: I've seen times where it's falling apart and you think 400 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 1: they're done with and then all of a sudden, they 401 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: go on a nice run over the next ten games. 402 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 1: So it is very early and we're going off of 403 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: what we've seen thus far. Defensively is the biggest concern 404 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: because Brodean wasn't fully healthy coming into the season. I 405 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 1: don't know if he's back to old Jonas brodein levels. 406 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: Jared Spurgeon has been just okay. He's getting a little 407 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: long in the tooth. They're depending on some young guys 408 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: in Booyam and your check. Bulliam's had some definitely had 409 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: some moments offensively, and he's very helpful in that regard, 410 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: especially if you're down a goal or two in the 411 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 1: third period. He can get some more minutes or if 412 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: you want to put him out there on offensive zone faceoffs, 413 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: But your check still looks like a liability to me. 414 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: Buoyam is still a liability in your own zone. Brock 415 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: Faber has now been the elite brock favor that we're 416 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,479 Speaker 1: accustomed to, and then they haven't had goaltending to make 417 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: up for it. So that's the element the aspect, you know, 418 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: I get it. They're lacking some depth offensively. You know, 419 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: Felino miss last night's game. They're already without Zucarello and 420 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: Nico Sterm. If they can ever get healthy, maybe will 421 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: be a little bit more competent offensively, but they need 422 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: to be They have to be a good defensive. They're 423 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: not going to be a top five offensive league. That's 424 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: just not where they're built at this very moment. They 425 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: need to be a good defensive team to compete, and 426 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: through ten games they haven't been. 427 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 2: And then with Anthony Edwards, well, first of all, lack 428 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 2: of effort defensively by the team two games into the season, 429 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 2: and with Anthony Edwards out for two weeks which would 430 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 2: equal eight games, it's possible we could have a long, cold. 431 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 4: Lonely winter here in the Twin Cities. 432 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: With our two When I will say the ant capris 433 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: of f why do you go a fter rant and 434 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: knock apristoff? And I don't completely disagree with that. I 435 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: would just say a star basketball player has a much 436 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: greater influence on the outcome of their team's games than 437 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: a star hockey player does. A star hockey player is 438 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: on the on the ice one third of the game. 439 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: Your star basketball the players on the what eighty percent 440 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: of the game? Eighty percent of the game, they're on 441 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 1: the court, and they're touching the ball more often than 442 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: the rest of the team. 443 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 4: You are correct, We'll break. We'll come back with more 444 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 4: common man program on the fan. 445 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: Bonus Bucks is back on KFN.

Brian 455 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 2: Oakill joined us at twelve thirty and ten Toby, I'm 456 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 2: assuming middle of the week news conference with the head 457 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 2: coach of the soon to be Big Game World champion 458 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 2: Minnesota Vikings, probably Wednesday. 459 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 4: They haven't scheduled nding yet, but that's what I would guess. 460 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 4: That's what it usually is. We'll just have to wait 461 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 4: and see how that goes. 462 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 2: Tim. We got a text message here on the Brown 463 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 2: John Brian Cavan text line from the five oh seven. 464 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 2: It says, are the Wild just a dysfunctional franchise? I 465 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 2: like the while, but those that I talked to that 466 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: love it more are calling for the coaches head, referencing 467 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: the twenty eighteen twenty nineteen Blues as a reason for 468 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: firing the second coach mid season in what two or 469 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 2: three years? Sounds like they have bigger problems if the 470 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 2: coach is the issue already? Are people complaining about the coach? 471 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 2: I haven't heard any complaints about the coach, But I 472 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 2: also probably avoided social media this weekend, so maybe I 473 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 2: didn't hear the two a lot of the commenting on 474 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 2: how the two games went from that same I just 475 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 2: watched him. 476 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: Myself, But I haven't heard a whole lot about the coach. 477 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: That's I think that's just typical fan reaction, right. We 478 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: can't get rid of the whole team. 479 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 4: We can't. We can't. 480 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 1: We we're kind of stuck with the players we have 481 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: right now. So if we need a spark, it's got 482 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: to be the coach. I'd give them a little more, 483 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: I'd give them a little more leash. At this point, 484 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: it's been kind of the same wild team for the 485 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: last six seven years six seven So I don't know 486 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: how much more we can just keep blaming coaches. I 487 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: speaking of blaming coaches, how about LSU. 488 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 2: LSU fires coach Brian Kelly in the fourth season of 489 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 2: his ten year, one hundred. 490 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 4: Million dollar deal. He goes two and three. 491 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,479 Speaker 2: And he gets and you know, look, I don't I'm 492 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 2: not paying his close attention to LSU football as I 493 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 2: once did. But if you if you read the quotes 494 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 2: from the athletic director Scott Woodward, he says, when coach 495 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 2: Kelly arrived at LSU four years ago, we had high 496 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 2: hopes that he would lead us to multiple SEC and 497 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 2: national championships during his time at Baton Rouge. Ultimately, the 498 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 2: success at the level that LSU demands simply did not 499 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: materialize materialize. And it is every you know, and not 500 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 2: just college at the pro level, I think too, but 501 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 2: especially at the collegiate level. 502 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 3: There are some. 503 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 2: Some programs, some schools that they just demand so much 504 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 2: more than others, like well, let's use the Gophers for example. 505 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: And I'm not suggesting PJ. Fleck should be fired, but 506 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 2: his overall record's been we just say ten in his 507 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: nine years he's been. It's been eight. Yeah, it's been eyed. 508 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 2: He had one really good season in which I think 509 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 2: they finished like eleven and two something like that, six 510 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 2: seven games over five hundred, and they were ranked number 511 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 2: ten nationally in the final Associated Press Pool and a 512 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 2: lot of people thought the Gophers would be able to 513 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 2: build off of that, or at least that was the whope, 514 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 2: Hey we're We're not, because that's how I think what 515 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 2: everybody has sort of kind of been waiting, I guess 516 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 2: decades for here with the Gopher football program is to 517 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 2: get to the point where, you know, we brought this 518 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 2: up earlier when we were talking about the Gopher beat 519 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 2: down to. 520 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 4: Iowa, that. 521 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 2: Iowa, Ohio State, even Northwestern, heck, sometimes Michigan State. 522 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 4: Over the past ten, twelve, fifteen years, however long it's. 523 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 2: Been, those schools will have football teams that for a 524 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 2: couple three years are ranked in the top twenty five 525 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 2: and are going to major bowl games. And you actually 526 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 2: go into the season thinking, chance to be pretty good here. 527 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 2: If we get a break or two, maybe we could, 528 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 2: especially now when there's twelve teams playing in in the 529 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: NCAA FPS playoffs, you know, you figure maybe we have 530 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 2: a chance. But after that loss to Iowa, and again 531 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 2: everybody's allowed a lemon, but it almost seems like the 532 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:35,479 Speaker 2: Gophers are back to Whacker type days to me. I mean, 533 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 2: I guess they're probably better than that, but that's such 534 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 2: a bad loss. And then you look at LSU and 535 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 2: it's like, guys two and three is the fourth year 536 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 2: in his contract and Brian Kelly's highly regarded. 537 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 4: Right then they lift him from an order dame. I 538 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 4: think he came from order day. 539 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember going down there and he got crap 540 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: for human viral for like faking the Southern accent. 541 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 2: Yeah right right, I should talk to he did talk 542 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: Southern accent oil all. So, boy, it sure is different 543 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: depending upon where where the school is located. So he's 544 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 2: out and associate head coach is taken over there now and. 545 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 4: I don't know, I just the Gophers gave us business. 546 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 3: Now. 547 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, the expectations are. 548 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, especially for those those those so called helmet schools. 549 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 4: We think of this tennemy. 550 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 2: You had the stat and that stat was the most 551 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 2: alarming of all. In four possessions on Saturday, the Gophers 552 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 2: had one yard offense. I went thirty one points and 553 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 2: they got it. And they got it in almost every 554 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 2: which way you can. I think they threw for one, 555 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 2: ran for one, had to pick six for another, and 556 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 2: a punt return for another, where as a kickoff one 557 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 2: of the two they were scoring in every way imaginable 558 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 2: and quickly, quickly, and it just it just it it, 559 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 2: It just snowballed. And like we said, the second half 560 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 2: was uneventful, but at that point, all I was doing 561 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 2: is just running the ball. That's all they do anyway, right, 562 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 2: And so it was it was a stalemate in the 563 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 2: second half, but at that point it didn't even matter. 564 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 4: So yeah, I don't know. 565 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 2: So, so we've got a college football team that's they'll 566 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,959 Speaker 2: probably become bowl eligible eventually, right, I mean, I they 567 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 2: they only need one more win if become bowl eligible. 568 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 2: Because of that, the silly non conference scared. 569 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 4: And I know they all do it. They all do. 570 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 4: They all play it. They ally they pay. 571 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 2: They'll pay some team a half million dollars, you know what, 572 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: six seven million dollars to to show up and take 573 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 2: a beat down and so they can pad the record 574 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 2: so they get into a bowl game. And you know, 575 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 2: I've always been in the opinion that these these bowl 576 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: games are nothing but glorified exhibition games. 577 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 4: They're just scrimmages because the two just as the star 578 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 4: players don't even play because they just want to go 579 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 4: to the draft. 580 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 2: They want to say healthy, and you're playing on December 581 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 2: fifteenth or the thirty first, or even even if it's 582 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 2: a bowl, even if it's a New Year's Day Bowl game. 583 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 4: I guess that means a little bit more. 584 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 2: But you're playing a game sometime in December with half 585 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 2: empty stadiums, and the game really doesn't It doesn't lead 586 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 2: to like another game or some type of a championship. 587 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 2: It's just, hey, let's just select these two teams that 588 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: haven't play an extra game. And I'm of the opinion, 589 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: and I guess you would have to ask each individual player. 590 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 2: I got to think, but by the time you get 591 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: to the end of the especially if you've gone six 592 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 2: and six. 593 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 4: What about six to seven, or if you've gone six seven. 594 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 4: Let's say you've gone six. 595 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 2: To seven and you get invited to a bowl game, 596 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 2: and you go, I mean, we got to practice for 597 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 2: another month, We got to go travel to Detroit or 598 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 2: Shreveport losing to play a Tuesday afternoon game that no 599 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 2: one's going to be watching, that none of us care about. 600 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 2: I'd rather the season just be over. I don't want 601 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 2: to practice anymore. I don't want to play another game. 602 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 4: But they have to. I got to think their hearts 603 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 4: aren't even in it. I don't mind. 604 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 2: Wouldn't be really another game, a meaningless football game when 605 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 2: the season has been if you're on the winning six 606 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 2: to seven games, it's not a very successful season. 607 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 4: It's not very rewarding. 608 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,719 Speaker 2: So even if the Gophers do get into a game, 609 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 2: and I'm sure they will, and we'll carry it for 610 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 2: you here we're in the audio home for the Minnesota 611 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 2: Golden golfher Football Network, we'll have it for you. And 612 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 2: I guess I'll I'll feign interest and pretend I'm really excited. 613 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 4: But it's hard to. 614 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 2: You know, coach, we lose to Ohio State and the 615 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 2: coach says we're a good football team. That team's just 616 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 2: really good. We're a good football team. Then they get 617 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 2: beat I would I would say, tennebe, I would argue 618 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 2: that the loss to Iowa was worse than the loss 619 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 2: to Ohio State because Ohio State. 620 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 4: Is the number one team in the nation. There's no doubt. 621 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: And there I mean after the Golfer game. I think 622 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 2: it was either prior to the Golfer game or after 623 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 2: the Golfer game. Ohio State had given up an average 624 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 2: of five points a game in five games. They'd given 625 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 2: up twenty five points. 626 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 4: That's that's just on a whole different level. 627 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 2: They it does seem like it's Ohio State and then 628 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 2: the rest of college football. Now we'll see, you know, 629 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 2: they'll I am curious. I'm assuming it's going to be 630 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 2: Indiana against Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship game, 631 00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 2: right I I guess I'm a believer in Indiana. Now, 632 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 2: I've I've watched a couple other games if if you want, 633 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 2: if the coach can check, just google them. 634 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 4: He can. 635 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 2: But I'm interested to see how good they really are 636 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 2: because the true, the only true, it seems to me, 637 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 2: the only really true test for any team to see 638 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 2: how good they are is you got to play Ohio State. 639 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 2: And I think the Ohio State Indiana game will be 640 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,439 Speaker 2: one of those games. I think most of us will 641 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 2: that that like that, like to see the best team 642 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 2: square off. That should be on paper, it's it's got 643 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 2: How does Indiana do it? Why can't we do it? 644 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 2: Indiana's actually been worse of football than we have that, 645 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 2: haven't they? We need someone really rich here to put 646 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 2: money into her. 647 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, is that why Indiana? Yeah, it's it's it's all 648 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 4: the money thing. Right. 649 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: Well, then as I still don't understand how we don't 650 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: have donors for the University of Minnesota. Like when when 651 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: the when the NIL thing came out six seven years ago? 652 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: Six seven years Yeah, I thought to myself, you know, 653 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: and we're not going to be on Ohio State Michigan level. 654 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:15,320 Speaker 4: I get that. 655 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: But a lot of these teams in the Big Ten, 656 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: like we have a huge metro area with a bunch 657 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: of big businesses to draw from me, like, we should 658 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 1: be able to get some NIL money coming out of 659 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: here that people in Nebraska, you know, they shouldn't have 660 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: it in Nebraska. And and uh, we're Purdue is right, 661 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: I'm we should have an advantage now all of a 662 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: sudden number a lot of the bottom half teams in 663 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: the Big Ten, and I just feel like we're still 664 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: hurting for money. 665 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 4: Doesn't make sense.

We've got a completely new roster 699 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 2: with the men's basketball team. We've got a brand new 700 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:49,280 Speaker 2: coach who's had success everywhere, and he's he's coaching wise 701 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 2: as far as every stop he's been at. This Nico 702 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 2: Medvet is sort of the basketball equivalent of PJ. Fleck, right, 703 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 2: because everywhere Fleck coach before he got here, he was 704 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 2: really good. Right. I think it was at Eastern Michigan, 705 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:07,240 Speaker 2: Western Michigan, Northern Michigan, Central Michigan, Southern Michigan, in east, southern, 706 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 2: south central Michigan, and he won, and then he came here, 707 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 2: and Medbit has been at I think he's been the 708 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 2: head coach at six seven different. 709 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 4: Schools and he's been really good everywhere he went. I 710 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,399 Speaker 4: met was at Colorado State. It was really good. 711 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: He didn't he get him to a sweet sixteen, yeah, 712 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 2: or maybe it was even a grade eight. So I'll 713 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 2: be curious to see if he can work as magic 714 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 2: here because as we talked about, I think it was 715 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 2: last week whereas I know, it really didn't happen, even 716 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:42,919 Speaker 2: though it happened when the Govers went to the Final 717 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 2: four back in ninety seven. 718 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 4: That was so much fun. It's fun to be in 719 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 4: the NCAA tournament. 720 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 2: Your school, your hometown school is in the mix and 721 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 2: getting out of the first and second round and moving, 722 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 2: you know, you move into the sweet sixteen. When a 723 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 2: couple games there get to the final four. I think 724 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 2: we're a long way from there, but you never know. 725 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 2: Let's take a phone call from Warren.

Those two guys 734 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 3: with them on the line, they they were they had 735 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:47,240 Speaker 3: a really good running defense. Now the line is another thing, okay, 736 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 3: they there's only one way they could save the season. 737 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 3: They'd make a trade to New England to pick up 738 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 3: the rookie they had that played for him last year. 739 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 3: He's backing up a rookie this year and played well, 740 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 3: is uh him? And I say go to New Orleans. 741 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 4: I don't. 742 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 3: And you guys thought it was funny that I said, 743 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 3: if you had a if you had a seven to 744 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 3: four offense, when you put seven linemen in what's been 745 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 3: hoped to happen into the Minnesota Vikings big lineman coming 746 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 3: in in the backfield and in the tight end position. 747 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 3: So you bring de side to get the Darien though, 748 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,720 Speaker 3: to help the darien though, to help at the tackle position. 749 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 3: The Darien though, used to be in Minnesota Viking and 750 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,240 Speaker 3: he plays in New England. 751 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 2: So you want to you want to go back and 752 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 2: get former Vikings that we parted ways with and bring 753 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 2: them back. 754 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, because there were better players than what you got now. 755 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 3: And I don't care what you say about du though. 756 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 3: You know in his years that he was here, he 757 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 3: gave up two sacks. 758 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 5: What are we. 759 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 2: What are we going to trade and get those guys back? 760 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 2: I mean, they're not gonna hear what players are they 761 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 2: gonna win there. They're not gonna want any They're. 762 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,919 Speaker 3: Not gonna no, they're gonna have to go with lower 763 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 3: old draft choices. And I think they can do it, 764 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 3: especially for the two defensive linemen. Because you had the 765 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 3: Jets and you and you have New Orleans aren't winning. 766 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 3: They wouldn't be willing to give up anything for draft choices. Okay, Well, 767 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 3: the big guy, the most important guy is Tyle Hinton 768 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 3: because he's a guy that not only is he tough, 769 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:24,879 Speaker 3: you could put him in the backfield to protect because 770 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 3: they don't have any This is the problem. They don't 771 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:31,359 Speaker 3: have anybody don't answer at center. That's the biggest thing. 772 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 3: If you had a guy in the back, I guarantee 773 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 3: you if he's in the backfield, somebody comes in there, 774 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 3: he's gonna he's gonna knock him out. I mean, this 775 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 3: guy is tough. So let's say you did that. The 776 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 3: only other question is, Okay, your quarterback situation. They need 777 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 3: to stack the quarterbacks right now because Swins should not 778 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 3: be playing at all this year. He should be on 779 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 3: the injured reserve list because he's not healthy. And what 780 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 3: they this would be a perfect guy to bring in 781 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 3: ne his Henton Hooker. What do you wouldn't cost him anything? 782 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 3: They wouldn't cost him anything. He's on he's on a 783 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 3: he's on a practice squad. 784 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 4: Squad because he's not any good. I watched him play 785 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 4: for the Troy Well you didn't. 786 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 3: Nobody knows that because they never gave him a chance 787 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:12,839 Speaker 3: to play. 788 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 2: Let me ask you a question, what do you think 789 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 2: about getting Jeff Lynn and Rod Stewart. 790 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 3: We already talked about that. But one other thing they 791 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 3: could also do. They could make a trade with Cleveland. 792 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 4: Who for sure. 793 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 3: Yep, and I would try to make a deal for 794 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 3: him because that's that's another quarterback you have. You have 795 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 3: a possibility not only mentioned, I think you could turn 796 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 3: him into a wide receiver and use him as as 797 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 3: a quarterback. But you got do you guys realize that 798 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:51,440 Speaker 3: JJ McCartney cost the Vikings their their franchise quarterback. If 799 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 3: he wasn't here, would have had they would have had 800 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 3: no if he wasn't here, we would have got here. 801 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 3: No think about it. If if JJ wasn't here last year, 802 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 3: they would either had Jones on this roster, they had 803 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 3: their they had their franchise. I know they would have 804 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 3: had they. 805 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 2: We could right now have Darnald Danny Dimes, or we 806 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,720 Speaker 2: could have uh Aaron Rodgers. 807 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 4: But we've we've got McCart. 808 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 3: There was another one worse thing that the Vikings fans 809 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 3: should be really cared about. I think their training staff 810 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 3: is a big problem. Not only did they Yeah, I 811 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 3: think the Vikings training staff is a big problem. Anybody 812 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 3: can see that Derrisa isn't healthy. He shouldn't even be playing. 813 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 3: If you, if you, if you get a guy in 814 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 3: the game that could play ten plays and he can't play. 815 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,840 Speaker 3: He's not healthy and he doesn't look the same. And 816 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,280 Speaker 3: I don't think O'Neill should be I don't think O'Neill 817 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 3: should be playing. This is the thing. No, this is 818 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 3: the thing. If you've got it, isn't so, it isn't 819 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 3: look at the time, there's only there's only what ten 820 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 3: weeks left in the season. It isn't the time. That's 821 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 3: not enough time to heal on its own. Can you 822 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,800 Speaker 3: put these guys in the game? Okay? They keep getting it? 823 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 3: You know, you know what could happen to Darrisa. This 824 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,240 Speaker 3: could endanger his career. 825 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 4: Thanks Warren, appreciate that. 826 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 2: Well, that's why there have been suggestions that Darisaw is 827 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 2: not a tough guy, that he's supposed to eat some 828 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 2: dirt and rub some robotesting on it. 829 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 4: You can make that claim. 830 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 2: I don't know how bad that knee is. As a defense, 831 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 2: as an offensive lineman, you've got to be able to 832 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 2: plant and if it is wobbly. I look, especially the 833 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 2: one thing that Warren just said there, I think he 834 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:52,360 Speaker 2: said it was hard to digest everything he said. But 835 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,359 Speaker 2: if the season continues as it is now, we're three 836 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,319 Speaker 2: and four. I think we're going three and five here 837 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 2: pretty quick, matter of fact, as quickly as this Sunday. 838 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 2: Then in less O'Neill and Darris are one hundred percent. 839 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 2: You just you know, I know there would be people 840 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 2: I would argue with that. But if you've got those 841 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:16,239 Speaker 2: two guys, are are are are our key players on 842 00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,479 Speaker 2: your off? If they're not one hundred percent playing guys 843 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,280 Speaker 2: when they're hurt, I just don't like it unless it's. 844 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,439 Speaker 4: You're the pitchcown. Makes no sense. 845 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 1: Either either Darisa plays the entire game or he's not 846 00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: healthy to play and you set him and your wrest 847 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: him until he's ready. 848 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 4: Yes, that's the pole. 849 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: Let's play half the game. Yes, does not work. No, 850 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 1: I you come out in the fourth part clearly not 851 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 1: making him feel better. Yeah, we've been on the pitchcount 852 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 1: for a month straight. Now, that's correct. 853 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 2: So and if you get to the point of the 854 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,839 Speaker 2: season where it's over, there's no And I know they're 855 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 2: making a lot of money and if you can play, 856 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,399 Speaker 2: you play, and I get all of that, but it's 857 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 2: it's what's what is it about something about valor? Is 858 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 2: that there's an old saying. I think they have it 859 00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 2: in Tennessee. You know only one shame on me and 860 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 2: pull me again. I you have to live to play 861 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,800 Speaker 2: another day. And so I don't know if I do that. 862 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,200 Speaker 2: Let's let's let's take a break, come back one more hour, Togo, 863 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 2: It's the common Man Program.
