Speaker 2: Quite a keys for the top five at five from you?

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 2: Is that where you want to start? You want to

8
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 2: ease up to move up into that. We're going to

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,480
Speaker 2: go time zone to time zone.

10
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 3: We're going to start in the Mountain time zone, move

11
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 3: to the Pacific time zone in order of achievement last night,

12
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 3: and we'll start well, I suppose you could say last

13
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 3: night Quinnesota was in the Mountain time zone.

14
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 4: I think I was just excited to play it and

15
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 4: get back with these guys. I mean, I've I've enjoyed

16
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 4: being around this team so much, so I was just

17
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 4: looking forward to that. I feel like I it was fine,

18
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 4: feeling really good at the first thirty, then hit a

19
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 4: little bit of a a little bit of a wall there.

20
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 4: But I thought we played a really good game as

21
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 4: a as a team. Obviously, Coal Tenning was elite.

22
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, Quinn Hughes had an assists.

23
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 3: He extends his point and assist streak to eleven games,

24
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 3: Carill with two assists, Eric Sinek with two power play goals,

25
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 3: boldy two goals and to assist, and Philip Gustison forty

26
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 3: four saves and threw up on the ice. Had to

27
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: leave so great wall of Saint Paulkins.

28
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 2: Mention an acknowledgment on PTI did he everybody loves Everybody

29
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: is weirdly fascinated with players puking on the field or

30
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 2: on the ice. Camar get away from it. It's just

31
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,199
Speaker 2: it's this odd curiosity we have. But the Wild win

32
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 2: five to two. Their winning streak is now six games.

33
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 2: You pull up the standings.

34
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 3: There a point ahead of Dallas in second place in

35
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 3: the Central Division and five games back or five points

36
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 3: back of the Avs, who they beat last night. No

37
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: rest for the weird great win. They're right back at

38
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 3: it tonight against the Utah Mammoth, one of your favorite names,

39
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 3: the Utah Mammoth at the Delta Center. And then quick,

40
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 3: does their mascot look like like a mammoth, like a

41
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 3: wooly mammoth?

42
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 5: I think so.

43
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 3: I've never seen it, but I'm just assuming, all right.

44
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 3: And then Quinn Hughes and his brother are going to

45
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,399
Speaker 3: be on fallon. I think then Quinn Hughes is gonna

46
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 3: be on SNL tomorrow, and then he's coming back to

47
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: play here on Sunday. Let's set the rotation for the

48
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 3: playoffs here. Let's let's get it going.

49
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 2: I'm a little worried that there's gonna be some envy

50
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: and jealousy on the team.

51
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 5: What if there's some resentment.

52
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 3: I think they like playing with him so much it

53
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 3: doesn't matter. Let's not run him into the ground here. Yeah,

54
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 3: that could be a problem. I know he's Quinnesota. You

55
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 3: can play thirty minutes, no big deal. But at some

56
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 3: point he's got to get some rest and get ready

57
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 3: for the postseason. Although he was great last night, so

58
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 3: that's what happened in the Mountain time zone. Let's go

59
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 3: a little bit further west late night into it Dome

60
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 3: with it far side.

61
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 5: It gets Chris Dunne them up for the step back.

62
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:04,679
Speaker 5: Perhaps in the corner. He's gonna let it fly clups

63
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 5: again for Anthony Edwards right in front of his own bench.

64
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 5: That is big time.

65
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 3: Appreciate Alan Horton on the call thirty one points. You

66
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 3: have the inbox open, don't you know. It's something else.

67
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 2: It's it's gonna annoy you too, but I'll get to

68
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 2: it in a couple of minutes. It's gonna annoy you,

69
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 2: Oh really, Yeah, Okay, it's gonna annoy you.

70
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 5: And that's fine. That's annoyed. That's Friday. I can be annoyed.

71
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: It falls with the classification of the love we lost.

72
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 2: But go ahead, Oh I'm interested.

73
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 3: Thirty one points for aunt, Rudy Gobert eleven point eleven rebounds.

74
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 5: I should say Julius Randall, none of the above didn't

75
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 5: play well. What's going on with him? He's struggling. You

76
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 5: think his rror ring is on red? Right? Man?

77
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 3: His rror ring, yeah, is malfunctioning. That could be even

78
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: his r ring enough enough with my aurror ring. I

79
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 3: imagine I haven't played this song, body, but I have

80
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 3: to imagine. Finchy is super excited.

81
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 6: Super physical, you know. Not not the prettiest game to watch,

82
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 6: for sure. I thought, you know, the key to the

83
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 6: game was the unit that was in there into the

84
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 6: third beginning of the fourth.

85
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 5: I thought he was talking about and we got a

86
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 5: little bit more than that.

87
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 6: Looks you know, ball kind of move we moved a

88
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 6: bit more, all.

89
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 3: Right, so they won. Finchy and Aunt got into it

90
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 3: a little bit. Here's that exchange, or at least ant's

91
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 3: version of the exchange. Christina pink I believe is the

92
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 3: sideline reporter.

93
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,359
Speaker 5: Well, looks like you were showing some emotion down the

94
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 5: stretch here as well when you hit that three.

95
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 7: Look like it said, that's what I do.

96
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 8: Why I mean, because I play before Fincy. When I

97
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 8: took to me at range over two, he was like,

98
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 8: passed the ball, and you know, I just told him, like,

99
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 8: you don't want me to pass the ball, you want

100
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 8: me to shoot it.

101
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 3: Johnny, who was at the game last night and then

102
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 3: took a red eye home because he's a family man,

103
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,359
Speaker 3: his father first dedicated, asked Finchy about it. I should

104
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 3: have pulled the audio because it was a it was

105
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 3: a Barrero like question for Johnny's He's trying to weave

106
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 3: his way into the her.

107
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,919
Speaker 5: He was trying to have a conversation.

108
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: He was not an interview, and Finchi basically said, no,

109
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 3: that's not what I said.

110
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 5: That was it. He shut it down.

111
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 3: That's why I odd enough said today I said Finchy's

112
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: mood ring, his R ring is the one that's grumpiest.

113
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 5: It seems like that might be true.

114
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 3: You just said no, that's not what was said, and

115
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 3: didn't elaborate any further on any of that. But he

116
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 3: did on Colin Cowherd today say we're competitive, we're alpha's,

117
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 3: we love each other and everything's fine.

118
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 2: Can I say something politically incorrect about this team and

119
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 2: about what I think Finchy's going to have to understand.

120
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 2: If you decide your roster configuration is such that you're

121
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 2: forced to or decide to make Anthony Edwards your de

122
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 2: facto point guard, then you're gonna have to live with

123
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: the fact that he may monopolize the ball even more

124
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 2: than you want. You had a way out of this box.

125
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 2: The way out of the box was to find a

126
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 2: suitable point guard to run a show to play with him,

127
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 2: which I still think is the ideal for Anthony Edwards.

128
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 5: But I don't think you can have it both ways.

129
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 2: Now that's not the same thing as saying he can't

130
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 2: doesn't have a right to go after him for some

131
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 2: shot selection issues. But I just think to a certain extent,

132
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: this is inevitable if that's if you decide, if you

133
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 2: convince yourself.

134
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 5: No, this is the best way.

135
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 2: In effect, we're making Anthony Edwards our point guard because

136
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:22,239
Speaker 2: he's not a point guard.

137
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 5: He's just not. It's as simple as that.

138
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 2: He he that doesn't mean he can't make the occasional

139
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 2: good pass. And that's the part that is eating away

140
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: at me right now. I just saw it's it's the

141
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 2: TNT crew now on ESP Let's get to it because

142
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 2: I don't have much I don't even know if who

143
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: they have in the in the opening game, but.

144
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 5: They did a series.

145
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 2: There was obviously a lot of conversation about a highlights

146
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 2: of James Harden in Cleveland.

147
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 5: It's Calves Pistons is the first game.

148
00:06:54,520 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 2: James Harden has been brilliant and a revelation in Cleveland.

149
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 5: Now he's hurt.

150
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: Mentioned he's got a non displaced I think they call

151
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 2: it fracture on his right hand. He's a left handed

152
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 2: guy obviously, so the feeling is he's not going to

153
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 2: miss that much time.

154
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 5: I got mocked by you. I got mocked by Sam Mitchell. Yeah,

155
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 5: more by Sam. Sam.

156
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 2: You're right, actually, Dan, you actually were considering it. Sam

157
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: basically said, you're an idiot. Yeah, And I might be

158
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 2: but you want to talk about having a point guard,

159
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 2: you can, you can. You can pair with Anthony Edwards.

160
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,119
Speaker 2: The guy makes every right.

161
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 5: Now.

162
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 2: This is my favorite version of a player who used

163
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: to drive me crazy. And I admit there's always a

164
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 2: concern about what about the postseason.

165
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 5: But he's playing great.

166
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 2: Cleveland has moved up to I think second in the

167
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 2: conference according to the odds makers to win to represent

168
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 2: the Eastern Conference. And he's why. He's a big guard.

169
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 2: He never met well, he's missing games now. He doesn't

170
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 2: do load management. He plays all of the time. He's

171
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 2: got all the guile in the world. He's a big

172
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: guard too. And I'm just telling you there may not

173
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: have been a way to get them, but I don't

174
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 2: think that that concept.

175
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 5: In fact, I will now make the argument.

176
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 2: As much as I was intrigued by the possibility of

177
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 2: Greek freak, I think he can make the argument that

178
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 2: James Harden actually was a better fit in the short

179
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 2: run what the Wolves are going to do than You're honest.

180
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 5: I just saying now and again he made in.

181
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 2: The first round of the playoffs, go two for seventeen

182
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 2: or two for six in Game seven and disappear again.

183
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 2: That's always that's part of what's fair game on James Harden.

184
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 2: But man, oh man, and he's a terrific passer. He's

185
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 2: made their big men. He's revolutionized their game in just

186
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 2: a handful of games that he's been with them.

187
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 3: So there's my James Harden speech. I mean I didn't

188
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 3: like I said. I didn't hate it as much as

189
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 3: Sam Mitchell did. I even I think said I hated

190
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 3: myself for how much I was also thinking about it.

191
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 5: I pulled up the trade.

192
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 3: I was curious again, Cleveland got hardened for Darius Garland

193
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,559
Speaker 3: and a future second round pick. What would our equivalent

194
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 3: of a Darius Garland been? I guess I don't know

195
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 3: what our equivalent would have been. Would that have been Jayden?

196
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 3: It would have been been Randall. Well, my guess is

197
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 3: we would not have wanted to trade Jayden. My guess

198
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 3: is we'd say nas if we had to.

199
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, because because Harden is every bit as good as

200
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 2: scorer as not Obviously he plays a different position he

201
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 2: is for sure, so's you're reconfiguring in a way that's

202
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 2: big and dangerous, but it's it's water under the bridge.

203
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 5: Obviously.

204
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 3: The caves are thirty seven and twenty three. They've got

205
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 3: the four seed. They are taking on the number one

206
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 3: seed and maybe the story of the NBA besides the

207
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 3: thunder and wenby the Detroit Pistons. As we mentioned the

208
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 3: Wolves now because they won last night, they've won two

209
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 3: in a row, are two games clear of the reeling

210
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 3: Los Angeles Lakers, who have lost three in a row,

211
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 3: and a half game back of Sundays of the Denver Nuggets.

212
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,359
Speaker 5: Shoutdown game Duggets.

213

Speaker 3: In Denver two thirty right here on the fan Sunday after.

214
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: I'm assuming that's a national TV too.

215
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a good.

216
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 3: Probably, Mike Breen. I'm hoping it's those guys. I don't

217
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 3: know how healthy they are. They've got some mystery.

218
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 2: We're pretty healthy, right, Yes, physically, Clippers weren't very healthy.

219
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 2: But I'm sure and I'm sure that came up on

220
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 2: the broadcast last night on dual Fanduels several times.

221

00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,280

Speaker 5: Kidney Wicks.

234
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 3: That would be after they won the national title in

235
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 3: nineteen sixty Yeah, the Gophers lost by a very good forward,

Speaker 3: Sidney Wicks. Yeah. Yeah, George Miken's kid was on the

237

Speaker 3: team for the goal feeling. Yes, train traversy the sid

238
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,440

Speaker 3: the arch, we can't find the banner ninety seven banner.

240
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,320

241
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 3: typed out on a sheet. It looks amazing, And so

242
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 3: I was kind of looking through and I go, how'd

243
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: they do in sixty nine? Well, they beat Jacksonville in

244
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 3: the national championship game.

245
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 2: They finished I remember that game actually again, I think

246
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 2: artist Gilmore, yeah, among others on them.

247
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 5: They played then they had two seven footers.

248
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 2: They had artist Gilmour and and a guy named Pembroke Burrows.

249
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: They were both seven feet as I recall it, and

250
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 2: they I think beat him pretty good.

251
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 5: So here's some other names from that nineteen seventy team.

252
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,920

256
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 5: before he went to Louisville. I mean just rus was

257
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 5: in the lineup.

258
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 3: Kenny Booker, John Ecker, Andy Hill, Steve Patterson, Curtis Rose Stee.

259
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 2: Patterson was a center, so the forward, so Curtis Roll.

260
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 2: Who was the other forward you named? Who did your

261
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:20,640

264
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 2: Those are the two forwards. That was a forward dominated

265
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 2: team was very good. Patterson was the big man and

266
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 2: he was sneaky good.

267
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 5: You know.

268
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 2: Obviously he wasn't as great as Kareem Luis Sindor, he

269
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 2: wasn't as great as Bill Walton would be in a

270
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 2: couple others, but he was solid and they won a title.

271
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 5: So, as you said, twenty eight and two was their record.

272
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 3: They beat Minnesota that day December sixth, nineteen sixty nine,

273
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 3: seventy two seventy one at Williams Arena.

274
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 5: That's the last time they were here. That's pretty cool.

275
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 3: That's a great The market coach Mick Cronan has already

276
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 3: complained about being here in Minneapolis, and he has yelled, well,

277
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 3: he had Andy Greider from the Pioneer Press he are

278
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 3: you been serious?

279
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 5: Oh?

280
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 2: But he did apologize to one of his own players,

281
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 2: right because he misread what he thought was a dirty play. Yeah,

282
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 2: he tossed him and he taught he basically get out

283
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,719
Speaker 2: of here, and then he did. To his credit, I

284
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 2: think he the next day said I completely overreacted to

285
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 2: the dirtiness of the play, and I've apologized to the player.

286
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 2: I I don't know how that went, but uh, yeah,

287
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 2: he he's got a bit of a you know.

288
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 5: Quick trigger. I think it's fair. Yeah.

289
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 3: One thing for that I thought was funny for Mick

290
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 3: Cronin though, because he's not well liked at the moment. Yeah,

291
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 3: he asked a reporter if they're raising his voice at him,

292
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 3: they got he as Calvin Sampson, the Houston coach, your guy,

293
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 3: guy short teppers, he hung up on you. When he

294
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 3: was in the Indiana coach Samson was bemoaning, like every

295
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 3: coach that they don't have enough nil and you know,

296
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 3: they've been in the final four, they've been number one,

297
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 3: like they've got plenty.

298
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 5: Right that they seem to be doing.

299
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 3: Okay, Mitt Cronin apparently Venmoeden one dollar said anything I

300
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 3: can do to help them.

301
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 2: Wow, that's good, that's well. But is that was it

302
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 2: well received? I think it was. I think it was that.

303
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: Do they have that kind of relationship? So either way,

304
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 2: I think it's great. Hey, what is going on with

305
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: our guy Richard Patino this year? His first year is Xavier?

306
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: What did they I don't have any It's just okay,

307
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: just okay, yeah.

308
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 5: Just okay. In fact, he had to are they on

309
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 5: the bubble? Are they?

310
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 6: No?

311
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 5: I don't think so. They're not even close. And he

312
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 5: just played.

313
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 3: He just was in the meat grinder, not because of

314
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 3: his doing, but it's also it's also Richard, like they

315
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 3: were playing Providence, which is his alma mater where he

316
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 3: went to school in the Big East.

317
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 5: A few days ago.

318
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 3: Jeff Goodman, a national reporter who was kind of annoying,

319
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: tweeted something out like, if the Providence job is open,

320
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 3: Richard Patino would be interested in it, like right before

321
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 3: they're about to play, you know, which is not helpful.

322
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 5: Definitely not not helpful.

323
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 3: So the next today, Richard tweets something out like excited

324
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 3: for the game tonight, very excited for what we're building

325
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 3: at Xavier for many years to come. You know, he

326
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 3: had to do it. Okay, we know Richard could find

327
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 3: his way into coaching rumors and to get contracted.

328
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think he's always discouraged though he.

329
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 3: Has it, but it's just classics, his first year at Xavier,

330
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 3: and he's already having to deal with it. Yeah, that's

331
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 3: probably not a lot of it is about nil, of course,

332
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 3: because Xavier probably doesn't have it much.

333
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 5: But there you go. All right, we're a little late.

334
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 2: We'll get do a shorty, get to a couple of texts,

335
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 2: and then prepare for lavell as usual.

336
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 5: At five point thirty.

337
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, if the Nuggets play the Thunder tonight, Yeah, this

338
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 2: is Friday night?

339
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 5: Right it is? Does that mean? And I don't know

340
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 5: where that game is.

341
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 2: Will you double check where they're playing, whether it's in

342
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 2: Denver or Oklahoma Oklahoma City.

343
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 5: It's in Oklahoma City, yep.

344
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 2: So does that mean if the Nuggets lose to the

345
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: Walls Sunday it would be a schedule loss even though

346
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 2: there's a day in between. But then the mitigating factor

347
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 2: is it's the thunder right and you're on the road

348
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 2: form So could that could the if Denver loses, can

349
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 2: that explain away their loss?

350
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: It depends because the other phrase that comes out a lot,

351
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 3: especially this time of year is which team is at

352
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 3: a rest disadvantage? You've heard that one? Yeah, right, the

353
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 3: rest disadvantage good? And you'd be stunned at how often

354
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 3: the rest disadvantage comes up with the big ten coaches,

355
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 3: they're obsessed with it.

356
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 2: Well, some of that, I guess because of the geography

357
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 2: now of the Little League bit.

358
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, but everybody's keeping score of who plays who on

359
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 3: how many days rest when they're coming back.

360
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 5: It's crazy.

361
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 3: But so that one has come up in the NBA

362
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 3: when you break down the schedule, and there's like a

363
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 3: site that will tell you how often how many miles

364
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 3: are you traveling and how often are you playing at

365
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 3: a rest disadvantage in the Wolves.

366
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 5: As we mentioned, they're just hanging out in LA today. Yeah,

367
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 5: that's true.

368
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 3: I think they'll go to Denver tomorrow probably, so they're

369
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 3: probably practicing at UCLA and having a great time and

370
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 3: then they'll head out. Like Flip said, there's a reason

371
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 3: you can find a way. I always can't every single

372
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,199
Speaker 3: game in the NBA. This is from.

373
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 5: Six one two. Guys.

374
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,640
Speaker 2: See, you were masterful in the way you broke down

375
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 2: the US hockey team, Edwards versus Finch and perspective on

376
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 2: how people want to view anything. You had me gobsmacked,

377
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 2: and then you ruined the show by saying what you

378
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 2: did about James Harden. Shame on you. I look, I'm

379
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 2: surprised that I'm saying it, but it's what we talked

380
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 2: about a little bit. You can't go so far down

381
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 2: the road with an opinion about a player or situation

382
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 2: to the point where you can't change your mind, or

383
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 2: you can't say, well, I'm seeing something different now, or

384
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 2: maybe I'm looking at it a little bit from a

385
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: different perspective than I did. What people do is they go, no,

386
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 2: I've always said this, but no, I can't change it now. Well,

387
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 2: maybe conditions have changed, maybe he's changed as a player,

388
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 2: and again he the onus is on him in the postseason.

389
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 2: I fully grant that point, no matter what he does

390
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,919
Speaker 2: in the rest of the regular season for Cleveland. But

391
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you, man, they are beyond enthused with him.

392
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 2: And I get it. He's not a great defender. But

393
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 2: let me break it to you, there's a lot of

394
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 2: really good players who aren't great defenders.

395
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 5: There's a bunch of them in this league.

396
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,919
Speaker 2: And if you're good enough at what you dot's a

397
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,919
Speaker 2: good example of it, then you can still live with

398
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 2: some of the downside that you're getting. You know, the

399
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: old Hardin was nothing but scoring, right, Yeah, And what's

400
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: changed is I think he understands he's a little longer

401
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 2: in the tooth, to the point where, all right, I

402
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 2: don't I like to score still. I like to shoot,

403
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 2: but I don't need it as much as I used to,

404
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 2: So I'll make another play for other people. And he's

405
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 2: talked to NBA people about his passing. Who do I

406
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 2: hear today talking about with Brad Doherty, who's now he

407
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 2: does I think color analysis, the former cav and North

408
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: Carolina star who yeah, really good on the air and

409
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 2: he said, this guy's his passing is second to nobody

410
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 2: at this point in the NBA. On a regular basis,

411
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 2: he's a very clever passing. There's not a lot of

412
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 2: history onics with him though. It's not like because he

413
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 2: doesn't do, you know, a lot of strutting. He doesn't

414
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 2: really do a lot of that stuff. He's he's at

415
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 2: times even seems a bit on the strange side, but

416
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 2: he's very good at what he does.

417
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 5: I'm I'm to me that's gonna.

418
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 2: Be one of the great story angles once the playoffs begin.

419
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 2: Can he catapult the Cavaliers who kind of been stuck

420
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 2: in this thing where they look really good and then

421
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 2: they get to the postseason and nothing seems to happen

422
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 2: of them.

423
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 5: So we'll see how.

424
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 2: Dan, I think you're being a little hard on Finchy

425
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 2: for making Anthony Edwards a point guard, Finchy simply playing

426
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 2: the cards that he was dealt. I don't disagree. I

427
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 2: think the point I was making it was if that's

428
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 2: what happened, if that's what you if that's your reality,

429
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 2: then I think you should be less surprised that he's

430
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 2: going to frustrate you some because he is a scorer,

431
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 2: and so if you are, if you have a scoring

432
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 2: mentality and you're playing the point guard position, you're going

433
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 2: to probably defer less or you're going to go back

434
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 2: to what you think you do best. He said it,

435
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 2: which is score, and that means he's probably going to

436
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 2: take some shots he shouldn't. It means he's probably not

437
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 2: always going to see the court as well as he should.

438
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 5: I think so.

439
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 7: No.

440
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 2: I mean, Finchy is dealing with the hand that's dealt,

441
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,479
Speaker 2: but then he has to know, all right, well, what

442
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 2: we're doing here is imperfect, and maybe I shouldn't be

443
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 2: all that surprised.

444
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 5: And again, what do we say about the other day.

445
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, there was all this discussion about

446
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 2: Luca throwing the ball passing about a Lebron late when

447
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 2: Luca had a better shot, and that's true, but it's

448
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 2: not the end of the world. It does happen, right,

449
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 2: and the idea that, oh, you see what happened there,

450
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 2: but he kind of left Lebron hanging out to dry.

451
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 5: Okay, it's one game.

452
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 2: That is an example maybe overanalyzing, and I'd say probably

453
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 2: the same for last night. My guess is, like I

454
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 2: said earlier, for Finchy is it's more, you know, we

455
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 2: had we won the last two, but neither of them

456
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 2: should have been as hard as they were. And maybe

457
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 2: he sees habits that he's still concerned about. And that

458
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 2: goes back to threading that needle on when you don't

459
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 2: overreact to some mistakes, but when you don't let a

460
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,359
Speaker 2: nurse just set in and just say, oh, hopefully it'll

461
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,360
Speaker 2: get better. Well, if you're the coach, you're gonna occasionally

462
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 2: call some stuff into question as well, so Willamdeed. We'll

463
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 2: see if you have questions for Lavell hit the Brat

464
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 2: Troum Brian Cafe in text line at six four six

465
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 2: eighty six.

466
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 5: We'll see if he was watching any if the Twins.

467
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 2: Uh, was it what I say, seventeen to five lost

468
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 2: the ankle or sixteen to five something like that was

469
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:19,920
Speaker 2: on TV at any point locally?

470
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 3: Did Lavell watch any of it? It wouldn't have been

471
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 3: because provis was in with the Power Trip. Today they're

472
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 3: not doing that well.

473
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 5: But you know what I'm noticing.

474
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 2: I noticed the other day they're picking up other fees,

475
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 2: Like yesterday they played the Pirates and it must have

476
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 2: been the Pirates feed and.

477
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,479
Speaker 5: I can't believe I've missed it. Text me next time. Now,

478
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 5: what was I doing?

479
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 2: That's probably the bigger questions, like what the hell was

480
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 2: I doing?

481
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 5: Lavell on everything?

482
00:22:42,560 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 2: When we come back, will Julius and SlowMo get along?

483
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 2: Royce could get hurt running the bases after he hits

484
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 2: a dong? Do you think I'm sexy? Is Lavelle's go

485
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 2: to happy hour song?

486
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 5: Wolves and five? And look who stopped by? We motivated

487
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 5: him a week ago. I knew calling you out at

488
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 5: work and here you are. You see it? Man?

489

Speaker 7: You sounded good to see you. Get to be here.

490
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 7: You just sounded terribly vexed last week. I try to

491
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 7: tell you. I so, I told myself, if I'm in

492
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 7: the region on a Friday, then I was screwed over

493
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,439
Speaker 7: and I was I was downtown Minneapolis, yea, And so

494
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 7: I said, I'm gonna drive over then, and it's good

495
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 7: to see it.

496
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 5: Though I didn't know. I forgot about the construction of

497
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 5: three ninety four.

498
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 2: Well, I think yeah, because I think for the weekend

499
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 2: it's supposed to close between downtown and one hundred again.

500
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 2: And I don't know what do we know where? What

501
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 2: construction that is, I have no idea. I don't go

502
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 2: down to what they're doing. I just know lanes are

503
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 2: shut down.

Speaker 2: Now you are by the way guards, you're getting ripped.

Speaker 7: and Glatten are on the call when assimon.

514
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 2: It looks like the pitchers held up nicely today. I mean,

515
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 2: did we use nine or ten ten and nine innings?

516
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: Ten and nine innings gave up I think sixteen earned

517
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 2: runs and uh issued twelve walk Yeah.

518
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 5: I watched. I watched one inning. I thought you did, Okay.

519
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,880
Speaker 7: I saw Jason Domingus hit a ball that I believed

520
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 7: left the stadium and killed an alligator in.

521
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 5: The pond behind the right field. Yeah.

522
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 7: Stand so Yeah, Marko Reya, he's got talent, but I

523
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 7: saw this from last year. He has incredibly wild moments

524
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 7: in his out and he walked for in the first

525
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 7: inning and they scored like four runs on one hit.

526
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 5: We know it's not good baseball. By the way, he

527
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 5: landed with the Dodgers, right rock them. Yes, he's a

528
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 5: special he's a special seat.

529
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 2: Is there a better job in baseball? To have any

530
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 2: job with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Seriously, he's got a

531
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 2: chance for a ring consulting whatever.

532
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 5: I mean, it's just it's just what. I don't even

533
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 5: care if you don't have it, if they don't even

534
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 5: they have so much money, they probably don't even ask

535
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 5: him to do anything. Think of that.

536
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: On the card consultants on the Dodgers, he hops on

537
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 3: the zoom calls. He probably doesn't even have to live there, right, Wabbs.

538
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 3: He gets to live back out east.

539
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, he gets to stay in Rhde Outland with his

540
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 7: family because he can uh uh you know, be with

541
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 7: his family. I keep forgetting his other son's name, the

542
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 7: other the one, the one is called Enzo. I can't

543
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 7: remember the other one. Uh a daughter uh and be

544
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 7: a dad. So he gets spend time with his family

545
00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 7: and when he's needed, he's.

546
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 5: Needed, the call and says, keep it up, boys, he'll.

547
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 7: Probably uh He'll probably hit a couple of you know,

548
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 7: minor league outposts during the season, you know, maybe swing

549
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 7: out to California for a little bit. Maybe I'll run

550
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 7: into Quasi, you know, because Quasy is out less.

551
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 5: Now that's true. Jump back with the Niners. You're right,

552
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 5: Niners in a better spot than the Vikings right now. So, uh,

553
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 5: they've both have fallen into better situations. I wouldn't live

554
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 5: crazy get anywhere close to a draft board though. Wow,

555
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 5: good chief shot six four six eighty six is the

556
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 5: bratch on Brian Cafan text line if you have questions

557
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 5: or observations for Lavelle e Neil the third. So did

558
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 5: we've lost to.

559
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 2: Two pitchers that were supposed to be slated potentially for

560
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 2: our rotation?

561
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 7: Is that correct? Yeah, we're talking about we're talking about

562
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 7: who just said elbow surgery.

563
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 5: Who's the other guy with David fest has got the

564
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 5: shoulder issue? Yeah, he was a candidate to land spot. Yes. Yeah.

565
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,400
Speaker 7: So now this this pitching inventory is starting rotation inventory

566
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,959
Speaker 7: that the Toys were banging their chest about, you know, uh,

567
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 7: just a month ago.

568
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 5: It is taking hits here.

569
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 7: They're down to like six guys would experience I mean

570
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 7: Todd Bradley decided not to pitch for Mexico in the

571
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 7: World Baseball Classic because you're like, wait a minute, I

572
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 7: could be the number two starter here, and so he

573
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 7: good move. He's sticking around so he can continue to

574
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 7: build for opening Day. So and then you know, Joe,

575
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 7: Ryan h Joe still has some hope of pitching in

576
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 7: the World Baseball Classic. I may have to write a

577
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 7: column and tell him, do not even think about it,

578
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 7: because soon to me, as soon as you get to

579
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 7: camp and you have a twine and you're a pitcher

580
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 7: in the WBC, you're not playing in a WBC. You're

581
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 7: you're resetting the button, hearing and building for opening day.

582
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 7: And right now it's his rotation. Now he's like the

583
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 7: facto ace of the staff and he's got to be

584
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 7: available for a squad.

585
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 5: Is it possible? Well, how does this work? Like, can teams.

586
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 2: Prevent can they say you're under contract to us, we

587
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,880
Speaker 2: do not want you to play, Or do teams take

588
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 2: much more of a hands off approach on individual players

589
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 2: making their own decisions on that?

590
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 7: I think it's I think there's two sides of that.

591
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 7: I think some teams don't mind their players participating. The

592
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,400
Speaker 7: Twins have been pretty lenient with that. The other You've

593
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 7: heard stories about other teams quietly telling the guys, no,

594
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 7: don't even think about it.

595
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 5: No, No, just upsets.

596
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 7: Too much, especially for pictures, you know, trying to build

597
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 7: and get on a progression for a regular season extra innings.

598
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 5: You know.

599
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 7: Uh, if you're a Yankees pitcher, you want to pitch

600
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 7: in the WBC, when now you're starting early to get

601
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 7: ray for a WBC you're likely going to be in

602
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 7: the postseason, So you're just added to that workload.

603
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 5: And some teams just frown upon that. Yeah, I guess

604
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 5: that's well, that's the reason to say go ahead and

605
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 5: do it, because there's not gonna you never have to

606
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 5: worry about extra workload for the Twins in the postseason anymore. Well.

607
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 7: I was thinking about that too. Maybe Brian should go

608
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 7: ahead of picture the closest he gets to meaningful competition.

609
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 2: You need it in October. Yeah, yeah, well we'll trade

610
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 2: them at the deadline, won't we. That's a good chance

611
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 2: of that. He's running not buying this year. Yeah, that

612
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 2: makes some sense. So where do you want to start here?

613
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 5: Do you want to go?

614
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 2: I mean, do you have you're not a big combined guy,

615
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 2: but I know you have to pay attention to it.

616
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 2: So where are you on the whole McCarthy deal. Do

617
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 2: you believe the time has come that the Vikings are

618
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 2: it's mandatory that they hedge their bets by going and

619
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 2: getting somebody Because you can make the argument, no, now

620
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 2: you get stubborn. You still keep McCarthy as your guy,

621
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 2: You work with him, you see that, you know whether

622
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 2: he can improve, and you bring in a backup quarterback

623
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 2: who's not a threat to him. Where are you on

624
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 2: all that debate?

625
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, we were so off on our pre season predictions

626
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 7: about this team and looking back on it. It's easy

627
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 7: to look back on it after it happened, but we

628
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 7: should have been pounding our fist on the table going no,

629
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 7: you do not mess up a good thing with your

630
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 7: core back room. You just hand the keys to this

631
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 7: Ferrari to a young young buck like JJ McCarthy who

632
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 7: was injuredlast year and didn't.

633
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 5: Get a chance to practice a lot.

634
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 7: So I mean it's just last year was a lot

635
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 7: last year of development for him and just to go

636
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 7: into the season going yeah, we could do this, we

637
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 7: could win with JJ. I think it was was the

638
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 7: wrong way to go looking back on it, and now

639
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 7: he's shown his words and he's got things to work on.

640
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 5: So I'm for.

641
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 7: Bringing in a capable quarterback because it still is a high,

642
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 7: high caliber defense. They still have the best receiver in

643
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 7: football and Justin Jefferson one of the top two or

644
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 7: three and Justin Jefferson and you should be trying to win,

645
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 7: and you need to have.

646
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 5: Winners on the field, and JJ's not ready to win

647
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:40,719
Speaker 5: right now. Now, who do you want? Oh? God, that's realistic. Uh,

648
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 5: I hate to say. Aaron Rodgers is possibility. You don't

649
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 5: have to apologize if.

650
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 7: He's got to be in a conversation. Would you make

651
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,719
Speaker 7: a trade to get the rights to Derek Carr?

652
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 5: Uh? He's still under controls with the Saints? Yeah, apparently

653
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 5: that's why I've been reading so.

654
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 2: Or what about Jones? Would you are you to pay

655
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 2: the freight on Mac Jones? They claim you're gonna have

656
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 2: to make a hell of an offer for us to

657
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 2: trade him. That could be prosturing. I don't exactly know,

658
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 2: but how much would it cost?

659
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 7: I mean, I never how much it would it cost

660
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 7: to make a trade for mac Jones?

661
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 5: You know? So at this At this stage.

662
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 7: I'm guessing the Colts are gonna wait till Daniel Jones

663
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 7: to get healthy, right, and wrote with him because they're

664
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 7: going with him.

665
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 5: Anthony Richardson has to watch out.

666
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 2: But we can't consider Richardson if you have JJ McCarthy,

667
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 2: Do you have two.

668
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 5: Projects going there? No, I'm not even going there any

669
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 5: I mean.

670
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 2: But there are people saying there's mutual interest, and I

671
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 2: just don't think that's logical if you already have one

672
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 2: project in McCarthy, right, I mean, you don't want.

673
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 7: To And I mean Rogers was slightly above functional for

674
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 7: the Steelers last year with less talent around him than

675
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 7: he would have to.

676
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 5: I was dead setting guessed a year ago.

677
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 7: I was kind of nauseated by the reports that he

678
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 7: had a conversation with koc Right now, I'm like, well,

679
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 7: for one year, he could come in and and try

680
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 7: to write the ship here and see if they can

681
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 7: push the Vikings into the postseason. I'm also a Marcus

682
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 7: Mariota guy. I'm not sure if I mentioned him before. Yeah,

683
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 7: I like to see him in the system a little

684
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 7: bit cheap, And I'm influenced because I watched that one,

685
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 7: because I was in Seattle for the Vikings game, and

686
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 7: we got dombing back to the hotel and the night

687
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 7: game was the commanders at Denver and Marioda basically put

688
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 7: the team on his back and the second half to

689
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 7: try to keep him, you know, in that game, and

690
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 7: I'm like, hey, this guy looks like he's made some progress.

691
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 5: This may he may be a fit, you know.

692
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 7: So there's a few options out there, but yeah, I

693
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 7: expect to see a veteran quarterback a starting game won

694
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 7: for the Vikings next year.

695
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 5: You're getting ripped again.

696
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 2: The bra Sean Brian Dan, Funny Hall Lavelle actually rips

697
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 2: Quazy now that he's out of town. Never once did

698
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 2: he do that in his column ever, that's from Tom

699
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 2: out of blame.

700
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 5: That's a that's enormously false, that fake news. I was

701
00:32:59,120 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 5: at this a hoax.

702
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 7: I was on that list of people who knocked him

703
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 7: for his drafting, and in my twenty twenty six People

704
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 7: to Watch, I basically put Quasi in the hot seat

705
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 7: about he's got to have a complete offseason, that's free

706
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 7: agency moves as well as drafting. Well, of course he

707
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 7: never got to that point because the Vikers decided to

708
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 7: move On. So yeah, so no, I was, I was

709
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 7: a skeptic. It's been like that over a year. We've

710
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 7: been talking about his drafts for the last year or two.

711
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 5: You know.

712
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 7: So, yeah, no, I never I never gave him credit,

713
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 7: Quazy credit for anything. He has his fingerprints on the

714
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 7: rise of the Lions. For goodness sakes, trained for Hockinson

715
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 7: and what was the other move there was a draft

716
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 7: pick he then he is a draft pick which we

717
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 7: receiver Jameson Willings and ended up with the Lions thanks

718
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 7: to USh. Yeah, so Queazy he's got he should get

719
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 7: like a playoff share from them.

720
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 2: I used Microsoft co Pilot AI today to predict wins

721
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 2: for all Major League Baseball teams in twenty twenty six.

722
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 2: It came back with the Twins ninety one and seventy

723
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 2: one and winning the Central I think Microsoft might need

724
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 2: to tweak copilot.

725
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 7: I don't even know what that is. I've never touched OFF.

726
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 7: I don't exist. I don't know how to use it.

727
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 2: You know, AI guy, you like, you know, to answer

728
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 2: questions or throw stuff in to just see what it

729
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 2: comes up with.

730
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 7: Well, it sucks because like when you Google search now,

731
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 7: the first response is in AI that's true, you know.

732
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 5: So it's dangerous because it's right there and it's often inaccurate, right,

733
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 5: So then have.

734
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 7: To go to a second or third sources for my research.

735
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 7: So that's that's dangerous to deal with. But no, I

736
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 7: can't believe there's any matrix out there that you can

737
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 7: put in a computer and have the Twins coming out

738
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 7: with ninety one wins, unless less.

739
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 5: Tom poll that owns co Pilot.

740
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 2: I mean, while Lavelle sounds great, TV great today, what's

741
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 2: the difference? Being in studio does take away from any

742
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 2: sort of label bingo. When it comes to the phone,

743
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 2: I've been on a roll with connectivity.

744
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 5: Yes you have, you're right.

745
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,360
Speaker 2: I mean today the guy who's getting well, you were

746
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,479
Speaker 2: still getting ripped even though it's Ben Gestling on the phone.

747
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 5: That's the beauty of it.

748
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,760
Speaker 2: They basically said you must have handed Ben your phone

749
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 2: because his connection.

750
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 5: I think he was on speakerphone in the car he

751
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 5: was driving down to the Northfield. Yeah, and so it

752
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 5: was just yeah, so the car it was just a

753
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 5: little noisy.

754
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 7: I've tried to avoid that with you. There's times when

755
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 7: I've tried to and I've ripped you for it. Talk

756
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 7: to you with my earbuds and my air and that

757
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:31,720
Speaker 7: didn't come across. I mean, Guardsian uh Britt Blakemore can attest?

758
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 7: How do I sound? Because I'm using this You sound okay?

759
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 7: You do a bit better and I and I'm just

760
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 7: gonna hold the phone because I'm I getting nervous about

761
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 7: pressing the phone up against my face and hitting the

762
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,839
Speaker 7: button and things going haywire, you know. So, so now

763
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 7: what I do. I put it on a speaker and

764
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:46,399
Speaker 7: I just hold it in front of me and talk

765
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 7: to you, so I don't. So I saved myself from

766
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 7: myself by not mistakenly hitting the button, hitting mute, or

767
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,799
Speaker 7: or ending to call whatever that makes sense.

768
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 3: I do appreciate, though, anytime we have any kind of

769
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 3: phone connection with anybody on any day, the texts come

770
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 3: in asking if they are using your phone.

771
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 2: It's a great life every time. Every time that's one

772
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,879
Speaker 2: of your call, one of your signatures on this show.

773
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 2: There's no question whether you like it or not. I

774
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 2: don't think I deserve to catch strays on this one.

775
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,319
Speaker 2: Well you probably don't, but at least there at least

776
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,320
Speaker 2: that means you're in their head because you've.

777
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 5: Had some interviews with person has had to hang up

778
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 5: a call back. Yeah, we have had that happen from

779
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 5: time to time. That's very true.

780
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 2: Are you prepared to apologize for what now? No, it's

781
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 2: not that bad yet. I mean, I think there's a

782
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 2: real good chance. You said you're heading the spring training Wednesday. Correct, Yes,

783
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 2: But once you get back, you may have to spend

784
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 2: a lot of your time in Saint Paul. Man we

785
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:42,879
Speaker 2: might have we might have a hockey juggernaut on our

786
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,439
Speaker 2: hands in Saint Paul, Minnesota.

787
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 7: Well, it's funny you bring it up, because, uh, I

788
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 7: have been to six Wild games already this year and

789
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 7: I've been to zero Wolves games, And I'm like, I

790
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 7: gotta I gotta write this ship here when when I

791
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 7: get back from Florida. But now, you know, the Wild

792
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 7: or like the second best team in the NHL right now,

793
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:04,959
Speaker 7: and they're chugging along.

794
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 5: They had a very impressive.

795
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:13,319
Speaker 7: Win yesterday against the have the Aves, and you know,

796
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 7: Gustlson was so so locked in. They end up hurling

797
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 7: in the third pier and had the lee the ice.

798
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 7: Were like, why did Gustin lee the ice? And then

799
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 7: the overhead shot of what he left on the ice

800
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 7: was they were like, I think lost that gave up

801
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 7: that goal because they didn't want to get down on

802
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 7: the ice, because that's what a vomit was.

803
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 5: What do you think about it?

804
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 2: They ever scraped that stuff up? I mean, they get

805
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 2: it out of there and they just let it freeze

806
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:35,439
Speaker 2: into the ice.

807
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:35,880
Speaker 5: How'd that go?

808
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 2: I don't know, guys. You do you remember what they

809
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 2: did with the vomit for a while. They leave the

810
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 2: vomit there.

811
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Walstead went out there and Russo or

812
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 3: somebody said, he doesn't want to do his butterfly.

813
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 2: He doesn't want to get down. They they that's on

814
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 2: a football field. That's what they tend to do. If

815
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 2: you're alignment and you upchuck on the field, they just

816
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 2: sort of leave it there. Yeah, you know, I mean

817
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 2: you got to work around it, I guess, which doesn't

818
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 2: seem very savory to me. Have you before on deadline,

819
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 2: before you shot down to write a column?

820
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 5: Have you ever thrown up first? No?

821
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 7: But I've had to make emergency bathroom runs. I missed

822
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 7: the deadline once because I ate one of those damn

823
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 7: press box hot dogs in the dome and it came

824
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 7: back to buy me right when I came back up

825
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 7: to right, ended up having to ended up having to

826
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 7: make a deposit.

827
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 5: Oh my god, it was and about ten minutes I

828
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 5: opened the door.

829
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 2: Only you could take it from vomit to another direction,

830
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 2: even less savory than than the first.

831
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, well that you know?

832
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 4: Did it? Ever?

833
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 5: Did you miss the deadline? It was about late. A

834
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 5: dome dog did that to you? Yeah? One of those

835
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,280
Speaker 5: press box the press box ones that paid in PEG's

836
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 5: just like, was it a bunch of it? Was it?

837
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 5: Did you put a bunch of like chili on it?

838
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 5: Or you're right, I shouldn't. It's just a hot dog.

839
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 5: It was the kill boss. It wasn't the Oh it

840
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,839
Speaker 5: changes everything. Yeah, I killed Bossa. All all bets are

841
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 5: off in a nuclear way. If it's a killed Bossa,

842
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 5: especially an undercooked one. Yeah, that's what it was. That

843
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 5: might have been what it was. Yeah, I can't remember

844
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 5: what it may have been a terrible game. Two. That

845
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 5: may made me sick a little bit as well. If

846
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 5: it was a Twins game.

847
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 2: There's a decent chance that eventually they got the shovel

848
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 2: and put it in the back of the net.

849
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 5: Is that true? They put the vomit in the back

850
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 5: of the net. Maybe why not just take it out,

851
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 5: take it off.

852
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 3: Oh it's kind of hard, I think, yeah, you probably

853
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 3: it's difficult to you know, carry it the whole way.

854
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:35,240
Speaker 5: It's easier.

855
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 3: It was the last minute, you know, almost can't bring

856
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:40,280
Speaker 3: up a mops.

857
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 5: How many players have we heard about that? Louis was saying,

858
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 5: who was was it? Was it the goalie? Yeah it was.

859
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 2: It wasn't Esposito as Glenn Hall from the Blackhawks. He

860
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 2: was one of those athletes allegedly who had to throw

861
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 2: up before every game in the locker room. It was

862
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 2: like this tense and ten release. The part I've never understood.

863
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,920
Speaker 2: I'm not a great vomit mind, but when I have

864
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 2: gotten sick, I get like so dehydrated and all and

865
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,919
Speaker 2: just you know, like worn out that I couldn't think

866
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 2: of doing anything physical after that. And yeah, we got

867
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 2: players all the time. Yeah, I up shocked that came

868
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 2: back out and I threw you know, I hit four

869
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 2: home runs in a game, So I don't know.

870
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 5: There must be an art to that if you're an athlete,

871
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 5: which I'm not.

872
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 7: I never covered a ball player who said he vomited

873
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 7: before a game and ended up having a great game.

874
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 5: Where was vomiting during a game?

875
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 7: I don't remember I have I just remember Joe Maher

876
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 7: game in Chicago where he thought he had to go

877
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 7: to hospital he was so sick and having a big game.

878
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 7: Apparently that was the game in which guards he was

879
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 7: hung over from the night before, sitting in the stands

880
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:44,839
Speaker 7: of Wrigley Field.

881
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 3: Is that the one? Yeah, we were all about ten

882
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 3: minutes from the hospital.

883
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 2: Well, the obviously obviously the the Jordan flu game. Yeah,

884
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,359
Speaker 2: I mean the best example of you know what we're

885
00:40:58,360 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 2: talking about.

886
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 7: We have that playing about the pizza that he ate

887
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:02,280
Speaker 7: bad pizzas.

888
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, one of the conspiracy theories was poisoned them up

889
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 2: a bad pizza or whatever. Who's the receiver? Hell, he

890
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:16,359
Speaker 2: used to he used to own, uh original pancake house here.

891
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 2: Max McGee. He was Max McGee going back to the

892
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 2: early Super Bowls. Was a receiver for the Packers, and

893
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 2: he had a notorious story where he didn't expect to

894
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 2: be used that much and then somebody got hurt. He

895
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 2: had he ended and his story well, he admitted it.

896
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 2: He he confirmed it. He got like just blind drunk

897
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 2: and hung over. Uh the not you know, the morning

898
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 2: of the game after just spending the whole night thinking

899
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 2: I'm not even playing, I'm just gonna get as high

900
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,400
Speaker 2: as a kite and ended up having a terrific game.

901
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 5: He's told the story before many times. Isn't there like

902
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,400
Speaker 5: a Packers Super Bowl story along that line. That's what

903
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 5: it is. Yeah, Max McGee's the guy.

904
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,760
Speaker 2: Yeah he was, and then he lived here and owned

905
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 2: America's original pancake house. I don't know if it's still

906
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 2: in the family or I remember running into him at

907
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:11,399
Speaker 2: one of them. I wonder which one it would have been.

908
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 2: I think it was the one would have.

909
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 5: Been any dina.

00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 2: couple of times at the place.

912
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,439

00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 2: have questions or comments for Lavelle. But I mean to

937
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,839
Speaker 2: get back to the park. What do you think I mean?

938
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 2: I think you know. The X factor is they've got

939
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,240
Speaker 2: no playoff equity, right, so you're asking them to almost

940
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,720
Speaker 2: like jump through several stages in one year. Because usually

941
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 2: it's okay, you get the playoffs, you win a series,

942
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 2: and you get eliminated.

943
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 5: That maybe the next year you win two series or whatever.

944
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:38,919
Speaker 5: That there's steps you have to take.

945
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 2: What people are asking them to do without any equity,

946
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,760
Speaker 2: any experience in the playoffs. At least this group together

947
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 2: is to make a run like immediately like this season.

948
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 7: Well, Patrick Gracie wroad earlier this week that he believes

949
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 7: they have five to the top twenty five players in

950
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 7: the NHL. So that would be Quinn Hughes, that'd be Capriceov,

951
00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 7: that would be Boldie, that would be ericson Ak.

952
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 5: I don't know who the fifth would be.

953
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 2: He had his wish, maybe he had favor and he

954
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 2: had favor, Yeah, he had He had a huge Boldie

955
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 2: Faber Uh, Eric Shonak and Caprice offf obviously.

956
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 7: And when Hughes was traded here, you know, I usually

957
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 7: reach out to my hockey folks, so I would send

958
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,720
Speaker 7: a text to Lou, send a text to Mikkeletty, uh,

959
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 7: you know the Cake Show House band, and sent a

960
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 7: text to gorg and I kept Oneman came back and

961
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 7: claimed that, you know, capriceof and Hughes maybe two of

962
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,280
Speaker 7: the top ten players in the league. And I was like, wow,

963
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 7: So there's definitely star power on this team and they're

964
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:39,359
Speaker 7: all playing at an elite level.

965
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 1: Uh.

966
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 5: Hughes made a bigger name for himself.

967
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:42,759
Speaker 4: Uh.

968
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 5: During the Olympics.

969
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,719
Speaker 7: Your boy Billy G the under Fire and Battle Billy

970
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 7: G Friend of Koshptel uh Uh says that Hugh's been

971
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 7: even better than he thought since joining the while Boldy

972
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 7: is headed to a superstardom. They've got quality goldtending u

973
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 7: uh you got, they got good defense, uh penalty Kiel

974
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 7: should be should.

975
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 5: Be getting better.

976
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,800
Speaker 7: Nicols terms helped in that uh area, and Billy apparently

977
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 7: is still out there for looking for a center to come.

978
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 5: In and join the mix.

979
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 7: It's gonna be It's gonna depend on what they have

980
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 7: to give up to get the quality center and how

981
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 7: much is that center going.

982
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 5: To cost in terms of salary.

983
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 7: I also read something yesterday that you know, someone suggested

984
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,839
Speaker 7: Pierre Leburn suggested that Steven Stamkoles could be if.

985
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 5: We talked about that earlier the show.

986
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 7: I was like, wow, yeah, that would give him some

987
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 7: top six firepower.

988
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 2: Now he's not a full time center though, But the

989
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 2: question is if he's so good it doesn't matter. I

990
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,840
Speaker 2: think he's played some there. He claims, by the way,

991
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 2: he hasn't given permission to anybody. He hasn't talked to

992
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 2: his GM about this at all. Now, who knows what

993
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 2: the truth is, but the fact that the encouraging part

994
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 2: I was mentioned.

995
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 5: To Guardie Is.

996
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 2: Over the years, when big names have come up, I've

997
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 2: laughed at this notion that everybody wants to come here.

998
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 2: There was no reason to come here. Now I think

999
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 2: there's reason to be interested in come here. You can

1000
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 2: sort of see the forest for the trees, and I

1001
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 2: think that's another sign of progress that it isn't crazy

1002
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 2: to think that a guy might wave his no trade

1003
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:08,840
Speaker 2: cause to come here at this point.

1004
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 5: No, not at all.

1005
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 7: I think they've proven, you know, this is not fly

1006
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 7: over country anymore. You know, locking up Caprice off was

1007
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 7: a step in the right direction there. The trophy Hughes

1008
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:22,000
Speaker 7: speaks for itself, so you know, getting to the end

1009
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 7: of all this for them to answer your question.

1010
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 5: One step at the time.

1011
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 7: Here, let's win a damn series first, I not one

1012
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 7: as serious as twenty fifteen. You know, this was some

1013
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 7: playoff heartbreak here, just playoff anks because they haven't been

1014
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,920
Speaker 7: able to get out of the first round of the postseason.

1015
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 7: Let's let's take that first step first, yeah, and then

1016
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 7: see how long we could make the run here. But

1017
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 7: this definitely is a team to be reckoned with. We're all,

1018
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 7: we're all, we're all were fretting about them having to

1019
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 7: face Dallas in the first round. Well, Dalla should be

1020
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 7: worried about facing a while in the first round, you know,

1021
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:56,960
Speaker 7: let's face it, so.

1022
00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 2: Well, you know, to your point, there's a good chance

1023
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 2: the round two would be against the Lanch potentially, And

1024
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 2: that's what seems unfair, because you could argue these might

1025
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 2: be two of the three best teams in the league.

1026
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,439
Speaker 5: That is part of what you have to fight.

1027
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 2: But as you say, you got to start by winning

1028
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 2: a series.

1029
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:15,319
Speaker 5: That's that's for sure.

1030
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 7: I still remember our crews here are We are in

1031
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 7: Saint Martin and sting with my brother and sister at

1032
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 7: bar talking and some guy found out from Minnesota and

1033
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 7: he's an Avalanche fan. He's like, well, we just made

1034
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,600
Speaker 7: a statement win against your team. And I was like, well,

1035
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 7: first I was on my team, but I think the

1036
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 7: Wild return that statement yesterday.

1037
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:37,359
Speaker 5: Uh, they certainly did.

1038
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a very good way to start the post

1039
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 2: Olympic break for sure, Lavelle in studio. We got a

1040
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 2: lot of good texts to discuss. A couple of the

1041
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 2: other issues to address, but let's first make this the

1042
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:49,520
Speaker 2: top of the hour.

1043
00:47:49,600 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 5: Pause back in a minute.

1044
00:47:50,600 --> 00:48:05,160
Speaker 2: And final thirty minutes of this week's edition of The

1045
00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 2: Friday Football Beast here on the Fan and Lavelle e

1046
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,320
Speaker 2: Neil the third kind of enough to join us in studio.

1047
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 2: The rest of the Way Bratshawn Brian Kfean text line

1048
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 2: is six four six eighty six. Somebody is mentioning to

1049
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 2: me that Glenn Hall was a Detroit red Wing. He

1050
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 2: might have been, but he was definitely a member of

1051
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 2: the Chicago Blackhawks. I grew up watching him in the

1052
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 2: net before Tony Esposito.

1053
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 5: Tono Tonio became a goaltender for a terrific goaltender for

1054
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 5: the Blackhawks, although at the moment of truth against the

1055
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:42,919
Speaker 5: Montreal Canadians, he let Jacques Lemaire beat him from mid

1056
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 5: ice for God's sake, for a goal that killed their

1057
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 5: chances to win the Cup that year. I still haven't

1058
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:49,879
Speaker 5: gotten over it.

1059
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 2: It's so one of the more underrated moments in bad

1060
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 2: Chicago sports history.

1061
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 7: Dealing him got twenty two minutes yesterday for the both

1062
00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 7: By the way, any interesting numbers, five points to a

1063
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 7: seven shooting Leonard Miller got twenty three minutes.

1064
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:04,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, that makes some sense.

1065
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 3: Also, Deilly also missed an open dunk on a fast

1066
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:09,439
Speaker 3: games ago.

1067
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm on, uh put them in Sports Center for

1068
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 5: the wrong reasons. By the way, Uh so a in

1069
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:19,360
Speaker 5: a Dinah hornet goal? Yeah, also made Sports Center. Yes

1070
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 5: it was crazy, but the bitterness, it's in classic US fashion.

1071
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 5: All we care about is the mispronunciations, right, Yeah? Is

1072
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:28,359
Speaker 5: that true?

1073
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 2: So they said what why Zada? I think Soayzata. I

1074
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,800
Speaker 2: didn't even watch it. I didn't How did they pronounce Dinah?

1075
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 2: They did say a Dina. Yeah, that's pretty typical. That

1076
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 2: is typical. Yeah, if you don't know, yeah, they actually

1077
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,440
Speaker 2: they were so defense it's just amazing.

1078
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,240
Speaker 5: They also bought the first name of the golf scorer.

1079
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 5: They called him Bold? Did they really other than that?

1080
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 5: How is the play? I guess it was a hell

1081
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 5: of a play. It was a crazy, crazy sorry Puck

1082
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 5: reacted like that after hitting the wall. That was pretty good.

1083
00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 5: Six one.

1084
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,839
Speaker 2: Two guys asks did Max McGee die by falling off

1085
00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:00,279
Speaker 2: his roof?

1086
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 5: The answer sadly is yes, he was.

1087
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 2: As I recall it, he literally was just trying to

1088
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 2: fix something on his roof, which is a lesson to

1089
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,240
Speaker 2: everybody that you just can't if you're not a pro,

1090
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,520
Speaker 2: you can't get up there. And he fought, he tumbled off,

1091
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 2: and I believe that is how he passed away. Yeah,

1092
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,600
Speaker 2: so because he he he became a business fixture here.

1093
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 2: I don't remember where he was from originally, but I

1094
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 2: do remember that that story.

1095
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 5: It was awful, awful, awful story. Wat's this? You have

1096
00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 5: a Sunday column figured out yet? Or is it already

1097
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:31,760
Speaker 5: in the in the hopper?

1098
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 7: I have to cover the Loons game tomorrow, which all

1099
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:39,880
Speaker 7: we're now expecting because apparently they were there's intrepidation about

1100
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:43,879
Speaker 7: throwing Hamas Rodriguez right out there because he hadn't played

1101
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,759
Speaker 7: in a game since October or something like that, but

1102
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:50,719
Speaker 7: apparently he looked sharp and aggressive and played with and

1103
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:51,600
Speaker 7: practiced with intent.

1104
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 5: So we're we're doing it.

1105
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:56,400
Speaker 7: So I'm expecting a second half cameo from Hamas tomorrow.

1106
00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 5: What's the weather sows to be tomorrow? Twenty one? I

1107
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 5: thought now there might be coming to.

1108
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:04,560
Speaker 7: Yes, Yeah, today would have been a better day to play. Yeah,

1109
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 7: So beautiful MLS schedule. We're flipplop and we're going to

1110
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:15,439
Speaker 7: the European schedule next year with a break from mid

1111
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 7: December through like the end of January. I think, and

1112
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:19,320
Speaker 7: before picking up the schedule.

1113
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:21,240
Speaker 5: Oh is that right? Yeah?

1114
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 7: So, but yeah, I'm curious to see this this version

1115
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,759
Speaker 7: of of the Loons. They're trying to play a little

1116
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,319
Speaker 7: more aggressively, playing in front foot a little bit more

1117
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 7: and not sit back, absorb pressure and wait for Dane

1118
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:35,680
Speaker 7: Saint Clair to bail them out because Dane is now

1119
00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 7: playing with MESSI and I don't think the replacing the

1120
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 7: goaltender is as good goalkeeper, sorry, is as good as Dane.

1121
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,239
Speaker 5: So I just want to see all this, all this

1122
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:46,799
Speaker 5: works out.

1123
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:51,400
Speaker 2: How what do you think of the current condition of

1124
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:52,520
Speaker 2: your basketball team?

1125
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 5: Are you?

1126
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 2: Do you think the Ant thing last night with the

1127
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,359
Speaker 2: head coach is much ado about nothing or is there

1128
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:01,839
Speaker 2: something else do you think going on there?

1129
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,759
Speaker 7: I thought Chris Hines wrote an excellent analysis of it

1130
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 7: today for our website. It's on start treb dot com

1131
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 7: right now, and he actually ran a had a quote

1132
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 7: from his book on Ant just talking about the relationship

1133
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:18,480
Speaker 7: between Hind I'm sorry, Finch and an Ant and it

1134
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 7: gets testy at times and they get on each other

1135
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 7: at times, but Aunt allows himself to be coached hard

1136
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 7: and the assistant coach, Chris Hines, will step in if

1137
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 7: he thinks things had it in the wrong direction, or

1138
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:33,399
Speaker 7: Mike Conley will calm down during film sessions when when

1139
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 7: Finch is going after Ant. The thing I'm getting I'm

1140
00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,279
Speaker 7: enjoying out of this is that you know, the player

1141
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 7: isn't running the clubhouse. The bench is showing that he's

1142
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,440
Speaker 7: not afraid to get on his best players back, you

1143
00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,439
Speaker 7: know when he's not doing the right thing. And Ant

1144
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,719
Speaker 7: plays with a lot of emotion. Man, you know what

1145
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,560
Speaker 7: he's feeling. He does not have a poker face, you know, no, definitely.

1146
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 7: I mean even when he's losing, he's talking trash, you know,

1147
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,840
Speaker 7: and saying something to the other team. And I watched

1148
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:59,480
Speaker 7: that play. That was a marvelous shot he hit. I

1149
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,399
Speaker 7: was like, why are you shooting that? Oh my god?

1150
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 7: That's and then you see the replay when he turns

1151
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 7: it Finch and he's like yelling at Hims, like, wow,

1152
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:07,240
Speaker 7: what was that about?

1153
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 5: You know?

1154
00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:09,480
Speaker 7: Now we know that Finch was on him earlier for

1155
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 7: taking the shot, a contested shot from mid range, and

1156
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 7: Finchy went into the past I dontough, Finch says, I

1157
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:17,400
Speaker 7: didn't say that to him, and said he did, yeah,

1158
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 7: And then uh, Finchy ot back of this coach. So,

1159
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:22,799
Speaker 7: you know, Mike Graham pointed out, you know, similar to

1160
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 7: like Kirk Cousins and and uh Zimmer after that one

1161
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 7: game where Cousins in his face, you like that, and

1162
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 7: they started shoving each other. It looked like it was

1163
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:33,880
Speaker 7: gonna escalate util brawl, but then they kind of separated

1164
00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:34,439
Speaker 7: from each other.

1165
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 2: That we talked about that earlier. The difference is there

1166
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 2: there was no good relationship between Cousins and and and

1167
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:47,400
Speaker 2: uh Zim for various reasons. So I think that moment

1168
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:51,000
Speaker 2: did capture a little bit of the relationship. It think

1169
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 2: there's a reason to believe, in the case of Edwards

1170
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,360
Speaker 2: and and Finchy that they've got enough equity and they

1171
00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 2: figured it out that they're gonna that's part of what

1172
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 2: they're gonna do, And part of what he's gonna do

1173
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,839
Speaker 2: is challenge him a little bit.

1174
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,640
Speaker 7: But Zimmer never liked the fact they had brought in

1175
00:54:03,719 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 7: Kirk Cutters because they had to get rid of some

1176
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:08,640
Speaker 7: defensive players he liked in order to afford Kirk.

1177
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 2: But Jim didn't want to keep didn't want to come

1178
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 2: back roll it back with Keenum either, So I don't

1179
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:16,520
Speaker 2: it's hard to know sometimes what Zim wanted.

1180
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,400
Speaker 5: That's right, I mean zim Zim was kind of wired

1181
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 5: that way.

1182
00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:22,319
Speaker 7: It was give you a very a very abrupt, acerbic

1183
00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 7: uh testing coach.

1184
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 2: Correct, excuse me? Wolves are in Denver Sunday National game.

1185
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,520
Speaker 2: Would you say one o'clock, two o'clock Guards. That's a

1186
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 2: national game, which of course you can hear on the fan,

1187
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,520
Speaker 2: and so that will that's the last game of the

1188
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:43,560
Speaker 2: road trip and probably for all the obvious reasons, the

1189
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,640
Speaker 2: most most interesting. I do think we were talking about

1190
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 2: this during the break. There were some people at the

1191
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:55,360
Speaker 2: break predicting that they thought Edwards was going to ascend

1192
00:54:56,040 --> 00:55:01,400
Speaker 2: into MVP conversation. The guy who's ending into and is

1193
00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:02,920
Speaker 2: there MVP conversation?

1194
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 5: Who is us born? Is the is the kid for Detroit? Absolutely?

1195
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:08,359
Speaker 8: He?

1196
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:14,200
Speaker 5: I haven't seen enough Pistons games until recently. Agreed me too.

1197
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 5: Kate is a That kid is good and what I

1198
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,160
Speaker 5: like about him, He's not a spectacular as Aunt at all,

1199
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:24,239
Speaker 5: But as we were talking about earlier, he just gets

1200
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,920
Speaker 5: to where he wants to go. It doesn't really matter.

1201
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:31,840
Speaker 2: He's a great scorer, he's he defends and he passes well,

1202
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 2: and and that that's a fun I would not be

1203
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,800
Speaker 2: at all surprised if the Pistons come out of the East.

1204
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 5: No.

1205
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:39,640
Speaker 7: No, we were just talking about it during the break.

1206
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 7: Kate's twenty four years old, Okay, yeah, I talk. Two

1207
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:44,200
Speaker 7: things we're talking about during the break is that he

1208
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:47,000
Speaker 7: get in this run of foreign born players winning the

1209
00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:53,800
Speaker 7: MVP because Luka Donchins and Jokic and Shay Gigi Alexander

1210
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 7: Sorry if I botching that name, but the case, the man,

1211
00:55:56,840 --> 00:56:00,280
Speaker 7: and he's brought He's made Detroit basketball relevant again.

1212
00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 1: Uh.

1213
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 7: He's got perfect size, He's got just everything you like

1214
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 7: as a player, and and he's leaning the team and

1215
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,839
Speaker 7: he's gonna be the reason why he's after twenty five

1216
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:13,879
Speaker 7: point four points a game.

1217
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1218
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:17,839
Speaker 7: So I mean it's fun in the East. Is gonna

1219
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:20,440
Speaker 7: be great. I mean with like tonight, you know, Detroit's

1220
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 7: playing Cleveland. Boston is keeping their heads above water with

1221
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:27,600
Speaker 7: al Jason Tatum Tatum, which I think is astonished, a

1222
00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 7: great reflection on their head coach.

1223
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 5: There no question the.

1224
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:32,719
Speaker 7: Knicks is still even though all the Turmo and all

1225
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:35,840
Speaker 7: the drama you're hearing about the Knicks and maybe not

1226
00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:39,320
Speaker 7: liking Cat anymore, They're still sitting third. I believe in

1227
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 7: the conference the other seven games back, but they're still

1228
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,839
Speaker 7: sitting third. So the Eastern Conference post playoffs is gonna

1229
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:48,520
Speaker 7: be just as interesting and compelling as the West will be.

1230
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:51,720
Speaker 2: I believed you already telling me what ohya said. Soccer

1231
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:54,239
Speaker 2: is the is the Sunday calls, So that'll be live tomorrow. Yes,

1232
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 2: you can't get that in a three thirty game in

1233
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:01,839
Speaker 2: the snow. It's supposed to be measurable snow guardsing your

1234
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 2: weather bug. Let's take a look here. New snow accumulation

1235
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 2: of two to four inches possible.

1236
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:11,280
Speaker 7: Man, just when I was, just when I was happy

1237
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 7: to see, like, no snow on my driveway anymore? Got uh?

1238
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:17,600
Speaker 2: From the book Instant Replay, Lombardi at a team meeting

1239
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 2: discussing a fine livity against Max McGee for curfew violation. Quote,

1240
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 2: the next violation will be one thousand dollars and the

1241
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 2: next two thousand dollars. Hell, Max, if it's worth two

1242
00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 2: thousand dollars, call me and I'll join you.

1243
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:29,600
Speaker 5: I don't know if that's a true story.

1244
00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 2: Instant Replay was the Jerry Kramer autobiography. I believe, a

1245
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:37,160
Speaker 2: former guest in the Bumper to Bumper show an awesome

1246
00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:38,120
Speaker 2: guest at the super Bowl.

1247
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 5: The super Bowl was Radio Row right next to Shake Shack.

1248
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 5: What a week that was. Yeah, that was dangerous.

1249
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:47,320
Speaker 2: I think we both that week gained thirty two pounds

1250
00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 2: because there was all the food choices right there, and

1251
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:54,440
Speaker 2: none of them were particularly healthy. But man, they it

1252
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 2: tasted good, that's for sure. Little Tokyo got to tear

1253
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 2: away the Terryockey chicken, which again is not light, but

1254
00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 2: it's really like four pounds of chicken.

1255
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 4: It was.

1256
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, they just piled it on, and instead of saying no,

1257
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:08,960
Speaker 5: that's enough, I said.

1258
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 2: Yes, I think you did too. Exactly right nineteen right

1259
00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:16,000
Speaker 2: over twenty nineteen. I don't even remember twenty eighth.

1260
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 3: January, February twenty eighteen, twenty seventeen seasons, Okay, okay, yeah,

1261
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 3: that was a fun.

1262
00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:23,120
Speaker 5: Weeks almost ten years ago already. Yeah, I know that's

1263
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:25,040
Speaker 5: a fun week. Are we scheduled for another one? We're not?

1264
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 5: Are we? No? No?

1265
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 7: I mean Darren Vel said that the NFL will never

1266
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:29,920
Speaker 7: have another Super Bowl in Minnesota.

1267
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,400
Speaker 5: It went well here, I mean, that was just him.

1268
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 3: He first of all, he's right, but by pile on

1269
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 3: Revel like I remember the tweet, don't give him crodit

1270
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 3: I don't remember that. I remember as soon as the

1271
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,000
Speaker 3: game was over. I think he pasted it too. Yeah,

1272
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 3: it was before that. It was those are the parties

1273
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:45,560
Speaker 3: weather because.

1274
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:46,920
Speaker 7: Of the weather, you know, they couldn't make as much

1275
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 7: money because of the way.

1276
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:47,680
Speaker 8: Well.

1277
00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:51,320
Speaker 2: I always maintained the biggest mistake that was made is

1278
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 2: you can't have if you want to get good reviews,

1279
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:59,640
Speaker 2: you cannot have the media jackals all on hotel roll

1280
00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:02,400
Speaker 2: along four ninety four near the airport, which was the case.

1281
00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 2: You got to find a way to get them downtown

1282
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 2: in the middle of all this stuff.

1283
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 5: That's your only chance.

1284
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:09,680
Speaker 2: And I don't maybe there weren't enough hotels to do

1285
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 2: that practically, but that hurt.

1286
00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 5: I heard that over and over from report. Nothing to

1287
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:16,760
Speaker 5: do around here, you know, in the middle of nowhere,

1288
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:20,240
Speaker 5: by the airport, and that's it's there's nothing charming about

1289
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,760
Speaker 5: those are fine hotels, but there's nothing charming about all

1290
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,520
Speaker 5: those hotels near the mall of hysteria.

1291
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,320
Speaker 7: And that was that was the location for the media

1292
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 7: party too, which yeah, you're right. Sports editor got mad

1293
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:32,280
Speaker 7: because I had a got ticket to the media party

1294
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:35,640
Speaker 7: because Unfortunately, I covered baseball for my career and some

1295
00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 7: of my fellow African American writers all cover football. So

1296
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:41,640
Speaker 7: I went to the media party to like catch up

1297
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:43,680
Speaker 7: with old friends, and Glenn sees me.

1298
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 5: He's like, what are you doing here? You're not covering

1299
00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 5: the Super Bowl. I was like meeting friends.

1300
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:49,800
Speaker 7: So it starts to we end up running a check

1301
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 7: because apparently there's several of us there that there were fringe.

1302
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:56,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well, in all honesty, the other thing that

1303
00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 2: hurt was because we were supposed to do a live

1304
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 2: enough said show how Minneapolis and it got too cold,

1305
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 2: and obviously it was another one of the issues for media.

1306
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 2: For everybody, it's like, well that's what got going. Yeah,

1307
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 2: that's what got rebel going, it's too cold. We actually

1308
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 2: it was just a can. They didn't trust the cameras

1309
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:16,880
Speaker 2: functioning whatever. We're going to do it on the roof

1310
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 2: to the top of some restaurant.

1311
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 5: I don't remember where it was. It was right on

1312
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,640
Speaker 5: nicol at mau Yeah, good memory. I forgot about that.

1313
01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:23,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's why that's when I bought it with Brad

1314
01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 7: Big because of the Chicago Sasion.

1315
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 5: Because there were a couple of cigar.

1316
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 7: Smokers in that group, and the found out about the Garlands.

1317
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 7: I was a member of the used to be in

1318
01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 7: Lilydale called the Perfect Ash. So I'm walking in and

1319
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 7: the place is packed. I was like all these people,

1320
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 7: and I remember one of the Boston announced the one

1321
01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 7: of the Patriots announcers was there, and I see Brad

1322
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 7: Biggs and Brad bigs what the hell are you doing

1323
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:44,600
Speaker 7: in my cigars shop?

1324
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:44,840
Speaker 5: You know?

1325
01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:47,680
Speaker 7: So? And then five minutes lay, I look over to

1326
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:49,840
Speaker 7: the side of the launch there's dear Landland that Beetter,

1327
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 7: the beat writer for the Atlanta Falcons.

1328
01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:53,360
Speaker 5: It's like, what are you doing here?

1329
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:53,600
Speaker 1: You know?

1330
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:56,520
Speaker 7: So it was like a it was a good, great times. Man,

1331
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 7: that was a fun week. But they pushed back bar

1332
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:00,000
Speaker 7: time to four m that week for Super Bowl.

1333
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,920
Speaker 5: That's true, that's very rare. I'm pretty sure.

1334
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:06,960
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure Bigsie is moving to Gary, Indiana, just

1335
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:09,520
Speaker 2: in case the Bear's playing Hamlet. Well, I'm pretty sure

1336
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,720
Speaker 2: because you can get good deals on real estate and Gary.

1337
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:14,240
Speaker 7: Right now, this ploy is working because now the Illinois

1338
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 7: state legislators are just stapping up.

1339
01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 5: Yeah they are.

1340
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,600
Speaker 7: They passed some preliminary bill yesterday and they got to

1341
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 7: revisit it in a couple of weeks, so I think

1342
01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 7: I think it's gonna get done and end up at

1343
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:28,040
Speaker 7: Arlington Heights. Now, the other thing that's popped out all

1344
01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,880
Speaker 7: of this now is that if since Inanda now has

1345
01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:33,680
Speaker 7: some mechanisms in place to build a stadium, that if

1346
01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 7: they don't get the Bear single graft to the White Sox.

1347
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,240
Speaker 7: Oh interesting, yes, yeah, that's very and Jerry Reinstoff was

1348
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 7: out anyway. Jerry Reinstoft was complaining that, yeah, players are

1349
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 7: now signing six hundred million dollar contracts. I need a

1350
01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,440
Speaker 7: new stadium, you know, because for a while the Bears

1351
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 7: in the White Sox were talking about collaborating on a

1352
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 7: joint stadium project, but that didn't gain any traction. So

1353
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 7: now the Northwest Sydney had a big up here.

1354
01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:56,920
Speaker 5: Let's do that.

1355
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 2: Well, actually we're gonna wrap up because we're really late.

1356
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:01,440
Speaker 2: Thanks for coming in though, good surprise. You're always welcome.

1357
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 2: Lavelle on Soccer on Sunday, and then we'll talk to

1358
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:08,240
Speaker 2: you next week. Thanks man from Fort Myers, Oh that's

1359
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:10,800
Speaker 2: right on your way to Fort Myers midweek. Yep, level

1360
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:12,960
Speaker 2: right here in the fan will wrap up the show, New.

1361
01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 5: Show rap is.

1362
01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 3: Presented by American Pressure Commercial Great Pressure Washers since nineteen

1363
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 3: seventy five.

1364
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,479
Speaker 5: It's the Bumper to Bumper Show Rap.

1365
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:24,960
Speaker 2: I think I got a man crush on Kate Cunningham. Honestly,

1366
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:29,760
Speaker 2: I just saw him on the wing. Yeah, because again there's.

1367
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:34,200
Speaker 5: Nothing that's like ooh ah ing about him, right, but

1368
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:37,240
Speaker 5: he just gets there. He's just one of those guys

1369
01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:38,120
Speaker 5: who knows angles.

1370
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:42,280
Speaker 2: It is strong, and he's a he's a damn good player,

1371
01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:44,760
Speaker 2: and he's got as good a chance as anybody to

1372
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 2: win MVP.

1373
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 5: In part because he plays.

1374
01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 2: He plays, Yeah, because the injury does the miss games

1375
01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:55,360
Speaker 2: is piling up on SGA and on Joker, right.

1376
01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:58,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, the way it's projected now, like only SGA is

1377
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 3: project to play.

1378
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:01,600
Speaker 5: You got to play sixty.

1379
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:04,800
Speaker 3: Five and he's at like sixty six, and they've got

1380
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,040
Speaker 3: an analytic for the projective names, and Joker is going

1381
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:07,760
Speaker 3: to be like fifty.

1382
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 5: Joker's not going to be crazy. Yeah, it is. It's

1383
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 5: it's insane.

1384
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 2: It's very true. Hammond is closer to Chicago than Arlington Heights,

1385
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 2: is it not? What I think what I said before

1386
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:22,640
Speaker 2: is that Hammond is closer to Soldier Field than Arlington Heights.

1387
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 2: Is that that is true, not by a lot, but

1388
01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:28,080
Speaker 2: it gets back to the psychological part. But it's not Illinois,

1389
01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:31,320
Speaker 2: which I think is actually underrated or overrated as an issue.

1390
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 2: I want to thank Wobbs for hanging in. We did

1391
01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:36,960
Speaker 2: not are coming in, did not again. The beauty of

1392
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 2: wabble Bingo is you never know what assertion that you

1393
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:45,880
Speaker 2: didn't expect might be landed, and he did it again today.

1394
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 2: Is it not fair to say he surprised us with

1395
01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:51,960
Speaker 2: his hot dog experience? Amazing, just you never know where

1396
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:54,760
