1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 1: After thirteen seconds, apparently it's over for Lindsay Vaughn. Man,

2
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 1: oh man, oh man, What a shattering way for the

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: dream to die. Welcome to a very special Super Bowl

4
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: Sunday edition of Sunday Sermons, Barrero and blakemore with you

5
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: till eleven o'clock today.

6
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,479
Speaker 2: And many of you may not even know that the.

7
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:37,279
Speaker 1: Mythic downhill skier Lindsay Vaughn is already out crashing. Well,

8
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: I've read several different reports, but basically eleven twelve seconds

9
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: into the Olympic downhill earlier today, taken off the course

10
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,279
Speaker 1: by helicopter, and we talked a lot about, you know,

11
00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: her desire to fight through despite her left knee being

12
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: pretty much shredded. In fact, I think as recently as

13
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 1: was it yesterday or the day before, she had a

14
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 1: pretty successful training run that I'm sure encouraged her to think,

15
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: you know, if I can pull this thing off.

16
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 2: Did not go well today the.

17
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: Way it's been described the wires, she lost control over

18
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,919
Speaker 1: the opening traverse after cutting the line too tight, spun

19
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 1: around in the air, heard screaming after the crash as

20
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: she was surrounded by medical personnel, eventually strapped to a

21
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: Gurney flown away by a helicopter, possibly ending her career.

22
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: The race was delayed about twenty minutes as she received treatment.

23
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: Her teammate Breezy Johnson won the event and apparently joins

24
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: Vaughan as the only American women to win the Olympic.

25
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 2: Downhill.

26
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: Quote from John Elias eli Osich no eliash E La

27
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: sc H, the president of the International Ski and Snowboard Federation.

28
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: Crash was tragic, but it's ski racing.

29
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: I can only say thank you for what she has

30
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: done for our sport because this race has been the

31
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: talk of the Games and it's put our sport in

32
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: the best possible light. Not surprisingly, Von had family in

33
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: the stands, including her father. Von's sister Karen Kildau said

34
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: that definitely was the last thing we wanted to see.

35
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: She always goes one hundred and ten percent, but there's

36
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: never anything less. So I know she put her whole

37
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: heart into it and sometimes things have up and it's

38
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 1: a very dangerous.

39
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 2: Sport.

40
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: Your call, she holds of Lindsay Vaughn holds a record

41
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: twelve World Cup wins. Killed us, saying Vaughn was being

42
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: evaluated and the family would meet her at the hospital

43
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: as well, and ski guy is right.

44
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 2: I mean, let's face it, this is.

45
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: This had become one of these stories even before the injury.

46
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: Lindsay Vaughn was going to be a big story for

47
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: all the obvious reasons, after having retired and saying coming

48
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: back and saying I still got an end me, I'm

49
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: going for it and having a great deal of success

50
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: in the lead up to the Olympics until the significant

51
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: injury the ACL a lot of us thinking, well, that's it.

52
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: We think ACL, we think, certainly football basketball, you're out.

53
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: You're not out forever, but you're out for more than

54
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: a week. And then we come to find out in

55
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: the skiing community, and there's probably some people in our

56
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: audience who can reach out to us via the branch

57
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: on Brian Kafan text line six four six eighty six,

58
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: who say that the dirty little secret in skiing is

59
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: that competitors have often done this and continue to compete,

60
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: at least for short periods of time despite that kind

61
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: of injury. And so then the hopes get buoyed again

62
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: like well, why not her?

63
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 2: Why not now?

64
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: And I am firm it was firmly in the camp

65
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 1: raising his hand saying it's her life. She is allowed

66
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: to take the gambles that she's comfortable taking.

67
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: Who am I to get in the way?

68
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 1: Who am I to be presumptuous enough to lecture her

69
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: about what she should or should not do? I stand

70
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: by that today. I know there's gonna be a lot

71
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: of there's gonna be a lot of finger wagging today.

72
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: See what was she trying to prove?

73
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: Now?

74
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: Look, look how her life might be changed forever. Although

75
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: we don't really know that, there's gonna be Trust me,

76
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of people nodding their head saying, yeah, now,

77
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 1: how do you feel about being so tough and daring,

78
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: et cetera. And I stand by my own position on it.

79
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 1: It's her existence. Here's the thing. It's very clear, I think.

80
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,679
Speaker 1: I mean, it'll be interesting to see what she says

81
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: on the other side of this thing, but.

82
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 2: I have to believe that in her mind, it's the old.

83
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 1: If I don't do it, even with this being among

84
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: the possible outcomes, I will be haunted by this for

85
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: the rest of my life because that's part of how

86
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: I measure myself. It's not life and death, but it's

87
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: important to me. So I'm not gonna sit here and say, well,

88
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: oh right, we shouldn't have urged her on. We should

89
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,279
Speaker 1: have just told her, come on, you gotta be smarter

90
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: than that. No, it's her existence. It's ended. Couldn't have

91
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: ended as horribly. I mean, it couldn't have end any

92
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:00,039
Speaker 1: more horribly than it did. I grant that point, but

93
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lecture her now at this point and

94
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: say this is exactly why she shouldn't have done it.

95
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: This is probably exactly why she needed to do it

96
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: to find out, and unfortunately it ends up being about

97
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: as bad an outcome as you would say. I think

98
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: you're in the same boat on this. I don't know.

99
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you're not a great skiing mind. I'm not either.

100
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: For me, it's not about the ski. It's about telling

101
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: a grown woman what she should or shouldn't do in

102
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: a situation like this, and whether that's too reckless or

103
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: because I get into these arguments with people, even about

104
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: football players and when they should play and when they

105
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: should walk away and all those things, and I've always said,

106
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: you have every right to say to project what you

107
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: think you would do in that situation, the same situation

108
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: as an injured football player, basketball player, whatever. What I

109
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: don't think you have a right to do is to

110
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: tell someone else how they have to handle it. I've

111
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 1: always found that rather presumptuous when we're talking about adults.

112
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 3: But go ahead the same way that you can't tell

113
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 3: someone else what to do, and if they if it's

114
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 3: a risk that they It's similar to like to a

115
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 3: not wearing a Guardian cap.

116
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 2: Right, you know, everyone says it's stupid, but it's his body.

117
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 3: He knows the risk, that's very well published what the

118
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 3: risks are, and he continues to play and sometimes slide forward,

119
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 3: which I don't understand, but that's his right to do that.

120
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 3: My problem is sometimes if you play and you're not

121
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 3: one hundred percent and you give like you cost your

122
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 3: team the chance to win because someone else who could

123
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 3: be one hundred percent contribute more than you. Well, the

124
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 3: US won gold anyways in that event, so it doesn't

125
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 3: really matter in that sense. So in that case then

126
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, she wanted to do it, and she

127
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 3: thinks she can compete, and it didn't cost the US

128
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 3: any gold.

129
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, go right ahead. Yeah. Well, and again.

130
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: I had said, Guardian and I talked about this because

131
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: there are people saying, well, she, in a sense may

132
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: have taken away the chance of someone else to compete.

133
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: I think all of the skiers that are on the

134
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: team are competing in one form or another. But I've

135
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: also said, and not everybody's going to agree with this,

136
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: I do think when you reach it's sort of the

137
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's stature. I think when you reach a certain stature,

138
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,679
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be offended if you are given

139
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: special dispensation. You know, when Michael Jordan decided he wanted

140
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: to play baseball, there are a lot of the baseball seamheads,

141
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: the purists, who are just offended because presumably, when he's

142
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 1: on that bus going through the South to play minor

143
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: league baseball, he's taking away the chance of another kid,

144
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,599
Speaker 1: aspiring baseball player to be on that bus. And I

145
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 1: kind of rolled my eyes and said, you're right, yes,

146
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: you're right, guilty. But the fact is there are some

147
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 1: athletes who get to a place where the Jordan rules exist,

148
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: the Lindsay von rules exist, and in this case it's

149
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: moot because as you said, there that had the best

150
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: chance to win or to beat her ended up winning

151
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 1: the thing.

152
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 2: Anyway.

153
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: Brat Sean Brian Kafan text line is six four six

154
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 1: eight six. And by the way, we have no idea.

155
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it looked bad. I haven't seen it. I

156
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: didn't even know did NBC run it live on one

157
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: of their peacock channels.

158
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 2: I tried looking it up. I haven't seen it.

159
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: I have not seen it. So you know, part of

160
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: this is we don't know. It looked bad. The sound

161
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: of her voice. It was awful apparently according to people

162
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: who've listened and watched, But we don't know the extent

163
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: of the injury yet exactly. You know, does that mean

164
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 1: this is another cataclysmic injury? Does this mean she might

165
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: have difficulty walking?

166
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 2: I don't.

167
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: There's a lot we I think we need to find

168
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: out before we go too far down that road.

169
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: But it's it's a shame because.

170
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: For the casual Winter Olympics fan, you are looking for

171
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 1: recognizable names, You're looking for storylines that you want follow, right,

172
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: and hers was one of the biggest and best because

173
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: she has had such and remarkably I mean historic career

174
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: and has had that ability it seems to keep coming

175
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: back and coming back. And we laid out I think

176
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: midweek her list of injuries. Her list of injuries skiing

177
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: remind me. You know, we'll occasionally do this with like

178
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: an offensive lineman who's played pro football for like twelve years,

179
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: and you go through it and it was that lengthy.

180
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it was an unbelievably long list of minor

181
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: and major afflictions where you almost felt like, well, does

182
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: she skier? Did she play football? This unbelievable stuff. So

183
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: in any case, that's the unfortunate headline today early from

184
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: the Winter Olympics, and forget more reaction and get a

185
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 1: little more detailed information, we will indeed pass it along

186
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: to you. We are guests free today on sermons. You've

187
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: got a lot to discuss, more than I even could

188
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: have dreamed of, beyond the obvious, which is Super Bowl

189
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 1: number sixty. Today we'll ask the question whether, more than

190
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: anything else, what the Minnesota Vikings need right now the

191
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: with it and while hepcat Minnesota Vikings, the BMI led

192
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings, that more than anything else, what they need

193
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: right now is more meat and potatoes. Will explain precisely

194
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: what we mean about that. We will also talk about

195
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: Rudy Gobert, the stifled tower. We might need a new

196
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: nickname for the Stifle Tower. What's the new nickname that

197
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 1: would give proper gravitas to Stifle? Going off verbally after

198
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: the Wolves found a way to collapse against the terrible

199
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: the team who's nickname you were making fun of Friday,

200
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: the Pelicans, they heard about it. They heard about it

201
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: in the locker room. They said, Oh, I wonder if

202
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: that substitute producer, part time producer at the fan still

203
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: thinks our name, our our nickname is the worst in sports.

204
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: What does he think now? And after the game, Rudy

205
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: went off on his teammates. He all but named all

206
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: but named Julius Randall and Anthony Edwards. And then yesterday

207
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 1: the head coach Finch, he responded to Stifle.

208
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: He didn't sound very happy with Stifle. Didn't sound very

209
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 2: happy with his teammates. Finch, he didn't sound very happy

210
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 2: with Stifle.

211
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: And we'll see where this thing goes today, because I

212
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: think we got a Matt and Agan today, the Wolves

213
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: and the Clippers, And that means Desumo's first game.

214
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 2: With the Wolves.

215
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: He will make his Timberwolves premiere debut this afternoon.

216
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 2: Is that game on the fan? You double check Liverols channel.

217
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 3: We're going timberwls chance, a lot of Super Bowl stuff,

218
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,520

219
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 3: game stuff.

220
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: That's exactly it so to be on the Timberwolves channel today.

221
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: We had I on briefly on Friday, had a nice

222
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: conversation with him, welcoming welcoming him to town. I also

223
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: have another question that isn't toy department related.

224
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 2: I saw this again this morning. It's been in my

225
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 2: mind for a while.

226
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: Will someone helped me understand the psychology behind whether what's

227
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: what's the temperature today? Is it like thirty twenty five?

228
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: On twenty five, twenty four? High at thirty five? Okay,

229
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: so so bowl freezing, much warmer than we're accustomed to.

230
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 2: I need some help on the.

231
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: Thinking behind going out and wearing shorts in this weather.

232
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: I've seen it at twenty four degrees, I've seen it

233
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: at four degrees. I've seen it at minus four degrees.

234
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: And I'm not sure we've explored this subject lately. I'm trying,

235
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: I just I'm not judging. Kind of I am, but

236
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: I'm trying not to judge, and I'm trying to understand

237
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: what's that about? Is that mind over matter? Is that laziness.

238
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: I'm wearing shorts at home. I don't want to put

239
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: another pair of pants on. I'm just going out of

240
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:10,680

Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six twenty seventh. SEASON i believe they've

313
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: also shut Down Trey young.

314
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:17,679
Speaker 2: And they can do.

315
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: It there's nothing in the rule book that does not

316
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: allow The Washington wizards from wanting to have their cake

317
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: and eat it, too, right because it's about we want

318
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: to lose more. Now we want to be sure they're

319
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 1: healthy for next season because we know we have really

320
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: not that much to play for this. Season BUT i

321
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:40,159
Speaker 1: will tell you flat, out as a guy who covered

322
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: this league for many many years BEFORE i ever even got, here.

323
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 2: That the message that conveys.

324
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 4: Is.

325
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:56,679
Speaker 1: Pathetic it plays to there are people who have an

326
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: unfair stereotype of pro, basketball but you're feeding those individuals red.

327
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: Meat there should be something internal within an organization that,

328
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 1: says we can't do. That even if we, can we're

329
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: not gonna do. It we are still asking people to

330
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: pay to come to see our. Games it's such a bad.

331
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 2: Look for this.

332
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 1: League it's the only league that's doing it as often

333
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: as it, does and it's indefensible as someone, who AS i,

334
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: said grew up on the game of basketball and covered

335
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: this league and loves the stories of this league and

336
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 1: loves it at its.

337
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: Best AND i get.

338
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: It it's apples, oranges team, sport individual. Sport but the

339
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: contrast is pretty, stark isn't. It vaughn, says, Hell i'm

340
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: gonna go for. IT i don't know what's gonna. HAPPEN

341
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: i don't care what's gonna. Happen as it turns, out

342
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 1: the worst thing, Happened but you know, what.

343
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 2: She tried, it.

344
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: And if there are repercussion, repercussions she's gonna have to

345
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 1: pay for. It but there is in that bleep. It

346
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: i'm going for. It there's that strain of competitiveness THAT

347
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 1: i always thought drove, sports or drove our interest in,

348
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 1: sports and THE nba with announcements like these and decisions like,

349
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 1: these is killing that thought or reducing people's willingness to

350
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: believe in that. Concept it's a it's it's an, awful awful. Look,

351
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 1: now you could, say who, cares it's the. Wizards they're irrelevant,

352
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: ANYWAY i get, That but those aren't That they're they're

353
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: not the only example of. It, now if you say

354
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 1: to Me jannis might not come back or it's going

355
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 1: to be really, SLOW i might be willing to accept

356
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: it because of the obvious concern that one of his,

357
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: injuries at least one of his injuries this, year can

358
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: be a precursor to the Dreaded achilles being. Shredded so

359
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: you gotta be smart and you have to be. Judicious

360
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: but that's not WHAT i. Mean how in all, seriousness

361
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:26,239
Speaker 1: it's difficult for me to understand How Anthony davis sleeps at.

362
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,199
Speaker 1: Night will you look up his?

363
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:30,640
Speaker 2: SALARY i THINK.

364
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,479
Speaker 1: I think this year he's making like fifty eight, million

365
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 1: AND i think it goes up to sixteen or maybe

366
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,719
Speaker 1: it's it's fifty eight next.

367
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 2: Year double check the Current Anthony.

368
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: Davis salary for this year and what it goes to next,

369
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: year and THEN i think the year after, that he's

370
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 1: got a player option at like sixty two million or

371
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: sixty three. Million, yeah so this year fifty four, million

372
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: four s fifty, Eight, Okay, well then it goes to fifty,

373
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: eight next year year sixty, two the year after.

374
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 2: That how many games is he played this year?

375
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 5: Seven and by the, way came into camp in terrible. Shape,

376
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 5: man this league Needs David stern more than. Ever there's

377
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 5: not a chance in Hell David stern would stand for

378
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 5: all this. NONSENSE i don't know what he would, do

379
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 5: but he'd find something to. Do he'd find some way

380
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 5: to try to convey a different. Message or if it

381
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 5: comes down to we do again have to readthink the

382
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 5: way the.

383
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: Lottery works and lottery, balls the whole. Bit i've read

384
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: somebody saying this might make some sense that your best

385
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: bet on the. Lottery if you really want to fix,

386
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:51,880
Speaker 1: this you go to a system where your performance doesn't even.

387
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 1: Matter that you put teams you. Put you have groupings of,

388
00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: teams and within a given, group regardless of your, record

389
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: you're going to end up being in certain parts of

390
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: the lot of the, lottery or certain finish in certain

391
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 1: parts of the. Draft in terms of how, high how.

392
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: Low in other, words whatever you do in a given

393
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,959
Speaker 1: season to tank is not going to have zero. Impact

394
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:17,880
Speaker 1: you might not even have a chance at the top

395
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: pick at all that. Year something radical needs to be

396
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 1: done in that, regard because it's it's it's not a good,

397
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:30,439
Speaker 1: look and it does look even worse when you compare

398
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: it to What vaughn is attempting to, do even if

399
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 1: there's many differences obviously between individual sports and professional sports as.

400
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: Well this is From tim out of, well we'll Save.

401
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: Tim tim's got an alt view THAT i have heard

402
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 1: before regarding The Von Lindsey vaughn. Decision we'll get to.

403
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: That we will get to the rooty. Eruption, Yeah i'm Out.

404
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: Vesuvius that's a That's italy.

405
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 2: Right have we ever?

406
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 1: Had is there A french volcanic? Eruption somebody out there

407
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 1: in our audience will. Know i'm not exactly. Sure but he,

408
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: erupted and he got a response from his head, coach

409
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 1: who seemed angrier with him than he was with his

410
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: team's defense On friday. NIGHT a little concerning to. Me

411
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: we'll cover. That we'll, continue keeping the text coming as.

412
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 1: Well six four six eight Six back.

413
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 6: In Them wolves up on The pelicans in the third

414
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 6: Quarter Friday night by.

415
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: Eighteen they end up losing one nineteen to one. Fifteen

416
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: their defensive effort was beyond, paultry and after the, GAME

417
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 1: i think one of the team, Consciences Rudy gobert decided

418
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 1: to speak. Up he's done this, before but in slightly

419
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: more muted. Fashion there was nothing muted about his Approach.

420
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 2: Friday.

421
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: Night it should start with, ourselves but it seems like

422
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: we don't have, that SO i think at some point

423
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: it has to come from the. Coaches it's not an

424
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,919
Speaker 1: easy position for a coach to take guys out of the.

425
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 2: Game it's not something that you want to.

426
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: Do BUT i think if the players don't show any

427
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 1: effort at some, point no matter how talented we are

428
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: as a, team if you don't have, that you just

429
00:26:59,200 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 1: can't be.

430
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 2: A winning.

431
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 1: Team, now he, says, look you, know take me. Out

432
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 1: you need to take me out of the, game because

433
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 1: you could argue, that you, know he didn't really do

434
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 1: much to Stop Zion, williamson who ended up with twenty nine.

435
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: Points he only missed two, shots got to the basket

436
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: whenever he. Wanted although he can be. Tough he's a

437
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: low there's no question about. That when he gets it,

438
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: Going rudy went on to, say at some, point if

439
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 1: the players don't have, accountability someone has to have accountability

440
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 1: for the. Players i'm on straight. Effort i'm just talking straight.

441
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: Effort i'm not even getting to the basketball side of,

442
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: things like there's always mistakes.

443
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 2: Are a part of the.

444
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: Game but the, effort to, me for a team that

445
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: wants to play for a, championship it's.

446
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 2: Unacceptable he did.

447
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: Not name, names it was very, CLEAR i think more

448
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: than anyone, else was talking About Julius, randall but you

449
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: could make the argument he was also talking About Anthony.

450
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 1: Edwards neither one of them played well defensively as. Well

451
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,679
Speaker 1: and again you want to Put rudy in, there and he,

452
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 1: says If i'm not showing, effort bench, me take me

453
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: out of the. Game everybody else will follow our best players.

454
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 1: Leaders if we don't show any, effort it doesn't matter

455
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:24,120
Speaker 1: if you score, fifty we are not going to win.

456
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: Now As Johnny athletic pointed out In, theory this sounds

457
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: like this sounds understandable From, rudy but he mentions that

458
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 1: in The grizzlies. Loss rudy did not play much in

459
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter Because Jaron jackson junior since, traded was dominating.

460
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 1: Him and it's pretty hard to Bench edwards Or randall

461
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: if they're providing the offense for a team that is

462
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: having difficulties. Scoring you, know do you cut your nose

463
00:28:55,400 --> 00:29:02,719
Speaker 1: despite your? Face but it was A i think an

464
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,959
Speaker 1: important statement made by one of the the the the

465
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: senior members of this, team AND i think it needed

466
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: to be.

467
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 2: Said i'm not sure the head coach.

468
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: Agreed let's listen to a portion of What finchy had

469
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 1: to say when, he of, course when The jackals got

470
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: around him yesterday and asked him for what he knew

471
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: about The rudy meltdown and his own response to.

472
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 3: It what are you thinking of?

473
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 4: That is?

474
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 2: That you?

475
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 7: Guys, Yeah well one of his, comments you, know say

476
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 7: a couple of.

477
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 2: Things one, is you, know.

478
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 7: Anybody knows that which he thinks here those there's a

479
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 7: high high out. Of, secondly you, KNOW i handle all

480
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 7: my conversations with with with, uself you, know disappointing that

481
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 7: he felt the go, outside you, know but, nonetheless you

482
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 7: know that's been addressed art. Today there's never been a

483
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 7: team that's won anything meaningful that has substituted their way.

484
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 2: There all, right we'll leave it at.

485
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: THAT i apologize for the background noise was not, ideal

486
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: BUT i think you at least got a taste of

487
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: What finchy had to, say and he said probably what

488
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: a coach needs to in that, situation in that, position.

489
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 2: The old to keep it in.

490
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: House we don't need this to go, public whatever the

491
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: case may. Be, technically is he? Right can you substitute

492
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: your way to a title as as a? Weapon does that?

493
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: WORK i think within games it can, Actually And i'm

494
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: on Team gobert on, this AND i get.

495
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 2: It he's an easy.

496
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: Mark himself because of his, offense some, limitations and you

497
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: can even, say well, defensively he didn't necessarily have a great,

498
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: game but most GAMES i see because he knows he

499
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: can't do much. Offensively for that, REASON i Think rudy

500
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 1: does bring most knights this, year especially incredible effort. DEFENSIVELY

501
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: i don't know how they keep stats for these, things

502
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 1: but if there's a.

503
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 2: Stat for.

504
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: A guy gets to the, lane beats his, man then

505
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: thinks twice about whether he's actually going to try to

506
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: take a shot Because rudy is there guarding the. Basket

507
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 1: it happens over and over, again and it doesn't show.

508
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 2: Up in the staffs because the guy didn't take the,

509
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 2: shot but it. Counts AND.

510
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: I think my guess is With rudy is that he

511
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 1: knew that he was probably going to get sent to

512
00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 1: the principal's, office and he knew, that you, know he's

513
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 1: probably making himself a little bit vulnerable going down this,

514
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: road keep it in the, house all that sort of,

515
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 1: thing but that he's he's frustrated by it and tired of,

516
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: it and maybe he's even you, know as dangerous as

517
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 1: this can, be trying to light a fire Under finchy's ass.

518
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 2: And saying.

519
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 1: This isn't. Working we're not going to get where we

520
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 1: want to. Go and here's the big Comeback i've heard

521
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: Today Mattine Game clippers on The timberwolves channel via the iHeartRadio.

522
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: App iodusumu will make His wolve's debut And i'm already hearing. It,

523
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: well maybe he can save this team or remind this

524
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: team of the importance of playing hard and with purpose.

525
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: Defensively And i'm just here to tell you if this

526
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: team is counting on this, capable helpful, player changing everything

527
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 1: about consistency of defensive. Performance this team is. Done they

528
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: might as well stop playing right. Now that's too much

529
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: of a burden to put on a good role player

530
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 1: Who i've who's you, know getting him, Here i've, ENDORSED

531
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: i like, HIM i think he will.

532
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 2: Help but come, on, man.

533
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: They. Shouldn't these players are too well, compensated too well,

534
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: established no matter their, Age they've been around too long for,

535
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: well we've just been waiting For Io desumu to get,

536
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: here to convince us to pay attention defensively a little more,

537
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: often and not let what Happened friday night happen very.

538
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: Often they're doomed that it all has to come from.

539
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 1: Within might he? Help, yes because he's a two way,

540
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 1: player he's a scorer off the. Bench we've laid out

541
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: all the reasons why this is a good, Acquisition but

542
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: that's letting the other players off the hook for in my,

543
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: view a little bit too. Easily who should know? Better and,

544
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 1: frankly it's always been my biggest concern About. Julius he's

545
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: found a home. Here he's a better player THAN i

546
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 1: even realized when we got. Him but there's still some stretches,

547
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: where even more than With, ANTHONY i watch him defensively

548
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: AND i, go does he really want to win a?

549
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 1: Championship not be, good not times be very, good but

550
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: does he really want to do what is necessary to

551
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,439
Speaker 1: win a championship or to give your team the best

552
00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: chance to do. It i'm not. Sure that's my one significant.

553
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: Concern So i'm applauding What rudy. Did he knew he

554
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 1: was going to get get called out for, it BUT

555
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: i guarantee you that it resonated in.

556
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 2: There you know, why because it's.

557
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: True rudy's point is we may have, limitations we may

558
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: have things that keep us out of getting back to

559
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 1: the final four or even, beyond but we can't not

560
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:35,240
Speaker 1: get there because we play as carelessly and as disinterested

561
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,800
Speaker 1: as we did defensively against a team like The. Pelicans

562
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 1: So I'm i'm all in on any good, nicknames new,

563
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 1: nicknames AND i think the you, know SOMETIMES i, think

564
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,240
Speaker 1: as a, player you, GO i Know i'm not supposed

565
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 1: to say.

566
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 2: THIS i know many get called up by the, coach

567
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 2: but you go bleep, it.

568
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: Whether it's heat of the moment or what, ever and

569
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: it's not like When rudy says this, stuff he's.

570
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 2: Screaming rudy's pretty low.

571
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: Key he just lays it out AND i you, know,

572
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: look we've heard this and From anthony from time to

573
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 1: time where he kind of, says, WELL i got to

574
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 1: REALIZE i GOTTA i gotta do it more often, defensively

575
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: and you could you could praise him for his. Honesty

576
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,399
Speaker 1: you could, Say, okay we're past the point now where

577
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: we should even be accepting that comment. Anymore you're, young

578
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 1: but you've been in the. League is this in your double?

579
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 1: Check IF i think this is either year five or

580
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: six For. Anthony now the head coach might have made

581
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: a fair point to say some of this is.

582
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 2: Actually related to.

583
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 1: Offense that if you if if you do the things

584
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 1: to make your offense go well in simpler fashion without

585
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 1: making it so, hard you might end up having more

586
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: energy on the defensive end as. Well that might be

587
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,040
Speaker 1: indeed part of the the. Story AND i can you,

588
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: KNOW i can listen to a little bit about, that

589
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: the quote From finchy that got my. ATTENTION i need

590
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: this to be drilled down. ON i think a lot

591
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 1: of our low energy plays comes from a collective kind

592
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 1: of foul. Mood so those are things THAT.

593
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 2: I try to.

594
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: Identify transition defense is most obvious one for, us a

595
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 1: bit of a litmus test for our mood and our

596
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 1: willingness to make that play tails that foul foul. Mood

597
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 1: what does that? Even what does that? MEAN i, mean

598
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: it's his, team and he might be, right BUT i

599
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 1: got to tell, You i've said this. Before finchy has

600
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: done a terrific job as a coach. Here he's in

601
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: very solid position and should, be BUT i think he's

602
00:37:54,000 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: getting perilously close to that trap where after game he, goes.

603
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 2: What's up to? Them they'll foul. MOOD i don't. Know

604
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 2: it's your, team, coach.

605
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: At some, point whether it's unfair or not to put

606
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: all that on, you it is your. Team and if

607
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 1: you have that much difficulty getting them out of their foul,

608
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:26,399
Speaker 1: MOOD i would worry less about being mad At rudy

609
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,919
Speaker 1: for going public with this and more about doing something about.

610
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 2: It and you just you.

611
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 1: Can't you can't separate yourself from, IT i, Think and

612
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: this is what coaches tend to do after a while

613
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: when they get. Frustrated but they've got to realize that

614
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 1: it does come back on. Them why are you not

615
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 1: reaching them more? Consistently why can't you convince? Them and

616
00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 1: do you use the hammers at your disposal as effectively

617
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: as you? Should and one of the hammers is playing.

618
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 1: TIME i mean he can say we don't substitute your

619
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: way to a. TITLE i don't know about, that BUT

620
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: i know there are times where you, go you're looking

621
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,280
Speaker 1: at the lack of defensive purpose and you go take them, out.

622
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 2: Sit him for five.

623
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: Minutes AND i think that's part of What rudy was

624
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 1: trying to. Say IT'S i think his level of frustration as.

625
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: Well dan foul Mood finch he is talking about is

626
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 1: the body language of the players on offense when the

627
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: ball gets. Sticky but it doesn't explain what is the

628
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 1: origin of the foul. Mood what contributes to the foul?

629
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 2: Mood is he?

630
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: Saying the text are, saying, well people pout because the

631
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 1: ball seems to get, sticky and So i'm not getting my.

632
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: Touches therefore NOW i Have i'm part of the collective foul.

633
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: MOOD i don't. Know we be getting these lack of

634
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: efverge stories every few weeks From wolds for three. Years

635
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 1: is a time to just accept this as who they. Are,

636
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: yeah it might, be BUT i think To rudy's, point

637
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 1: it means you won't win a. Title you might be

638
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 1: good enough to continue to sort of hang in and

639
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: be in the, mix but you're probably not going to

640
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:18,279
Speaker 1: win a.

641
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 2: Title and, look we get. It every team has ups and.

642
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: Downs the effort, thing even as a reason for playing

643
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 1: badly one, day can be.

644
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,360
Speaker 2: Overdone that's under the.

645
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 1: Classificate you get this in, hockey where people, out we just,

646
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: didn't you, know we just. Didn't we didn't play hard.

647
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 1: Enough and SOMETIMES i don't even know if the players

648
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 1: who say it believe. It it's JUST i gotta the jackals

649

Speaker 1: are in, HERE i gotta come up with, something and

650
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 1: for a couple, shifts maybe we, didn't you, KNOW i don't, Know,

651
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: dan regarding the tanking. Conversation last, night The jazz led

652
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: The magic ninety four eighty. Seven going to the fourth,

653
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,760
Speaker 1: Quarter Lori markin And Jared Jackson junior had already combined

654
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: for forty nine, points but they were held out for

655
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: the entire fourth. Quarter ut all lost the game one

656
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 1: twenty to one. Seventeen i've got and a couple texts about.

657
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,839
Speaker 1: That And i've seen A i've seen a couple tweets about.

658
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 1: It if that information is, accurate it's a disgrace to the.

659
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 1: League and, again if you, say, well based on the

660
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: way the rules are set, Up utah has got no

661
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 1: choice but to do what it, did then you have

662
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: to change the. Rules you have to find some other

663
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:23,919
Speaker 1: way to save your league from this measure of. Embarrassment

664
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:30,359
Speaker 1: there's no defending, it or even if you defend it

665
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 1: on the basis of what the rules are, now.

666
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:34,840
Speaker 2: It's costing you.

667
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 1: Credibility it's eating away at what draws people to athletic.

668
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:45,280
Speaker 1: COMPETITION i would even, say if you're A utah, FANCY

669
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: i get.

670
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,919
Speaker 2: It, no, no, no don't play. THEM i know we got

671
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 2: them next year and then we got to get a better.

672
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 1: PLAYER i would, say even if they're on board on,

673
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:59,799
Speaker 1: it it's still an unfortunate, look a bad look that

674
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 1: contributes to this sort of cynicism that tends to. EXIST

675
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 1: a week, ago the effort was questioned And finch, says

676
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 1: to go ask the. Players The, jackals ask the. Players rudy,

677
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: responds and Now finn, says ONLY i can call out.

678
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:19,240
Speaker 2: Players where does the disconnect? Here it's a good. Point

679
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 2: he did say.

680
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 1: That basically, said, well it's on. Them SO i have

681
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:33,320
Speaker 1: again zero problem With rudy saying, it and because you

682
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 1: could say it's stayed in the, obvious but it's.

683
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 2: Always going to be better coming from.

684
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,680
Speaker 1: Within And anthony has done it enough That i'm not

685
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 1: even sure it matters. Anymore BUT i think With, rudy

686
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 1: because he's a veteran, player BECAUSE i think he is

687
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: serious about this, STUFF i think it should have some.

688
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:52,840
Speaker 2: Weight and it's not difficult to see if you watch.

689
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 1: The fourth, quarter third, quarter and fourth quarter of that

690

692
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: was on the. Court and, again their overall record is still,

693
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 1: Good they're still. Competitive they've showed they've can play against

694
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: the best. Teams that's. Great BUT i love the fact

695
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,000

00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 4: Snotty nosed kid that was always around him And Chris,

743
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,080

Speaker 4: him you, know WHAT i should do after practice to work,

745
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,279
Speaker 4: out and they would send me a run. STADIUMS i

Speaker 4: run stadiums to do whatever they tell me to. Do

747
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 4: and you, know you, know he let me drive his

748
00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:00,439

754
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 4: the hardest, is you, KNOW i Know randy's had a

755
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 4: really difficult last, year and this is that was the

756
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,840
Speaker 4: first Time i've seen him with this cancer and, remission

757
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:26,160

Speaker 1: Appreciated terrific moment, there and the emotion is not difficult

763
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:47,280
Speaker 1: to to distill out of that. CONVERSATION i can remember

764
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 1: vividly in the. Studio would it have been this, STUDIO

765
00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 1: i think it probably would have been watching a, catch

766
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 1: a replay of a CATCH I fitzgerald made when he

767
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: was still at The university Of.

768
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and at the TIME.

769
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 1: I, said in, FACT i remember saying to his dad

770
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 1: WHEN i saw him after that that might be the

771
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:28,240
Speaker 1: greatest Catch i've ever seen any receiver make at any.

772
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:34,080
Speaker 1: Level it was that. Good it Was Chris carter. Hard

773
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:38,800
Speaker 1: it was, astonishing And i'm not saying that on that

774
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,239
Speaker 1: DAY i said he's gonna end up in The hall Of.

775
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: FAME i doubt THAT i went that, far BUT i

Speaker 1: it in the was it the forty yard or in

785

00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 1: Meaningful and then there was one he caught in triple

794
00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,480

795
00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:04,920
Speaker 1: weekend is That fitzi has more tackles in his career

796
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: than dropped passes in his career. Tackles, remember he's an

797
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: offensive player that he finished with more tackles than. Drops

798
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 1: an absolutely marvelous football. Player and, again you know how

799
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: often it does, happen not very.

800
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 2: Often he's ball, BOY i. Guy there's all kinds of video.

801
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: Of, him photos of him at training camp and on

802
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 1: the field and, practiced and obviously the stories are legendary

803
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 1: about you know How Chris carter And moss both looked

804
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,680
Speaker 1: out for him as, Well very very. Impressive it's also

805
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: worth noting before we get to some meat and potato,

806
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:50,920
Speaker 1: Stuff danjasota reminds us that on this, day ninety years,

807
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:55,520
Speaker 1: ago ninety years ago, today that's nineteen thirty, six The

808
00:49:55,600 --> 00:50:00,319
Speaker 1: National Football league held its first ever, draft and the

809
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:04,800
Speaker 1: inspiration for said, draft as we've discussed On sermons, previously

810
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:14,360
Speaker 1: was that owners became enraged when A minnesotan Named Stan

811
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:19,560
Speaker 1: costka was signed for the largest contract IN nfl history

812
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:24,200
Speaker 1: the previous, summer and the idea was that he could

813
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,880
Speaker 1: play the field in a way that allowed him to

814
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:28,800
Speaker 1: maximize in a way that the owners didn't.

815
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:30,799
Speaker 2: Like so.

816
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 1: Worthy of note the impact of A minnesota, player A

817
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 1: minnesotan Stan. Coska we've discussed before in bringing about what

818
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,760
Speaker 1: is now we take for granted The National Football league

819
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:49,920
Speaker 1: draft meat and.

820
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 2: Potatoes is it possible.

821
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 1: That as much as The vikings these with it in a,

822
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 1: While vikings like pride themselves on what collaboration we're, about

823
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 1: modern techniques in, everything, practicing, tackling, training and, yes even.

824
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 1: Eating do we need more throwback meat and potatoes in our?

825
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:26,480
Speaker 1: DIET i don't mean that, LITERALLY i mean that more.

826
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 1: Figuratively and when you look back on it, now the

827
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,440
Speaker 1: decision to Hire quasi.

828
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 2: In the, end.

829
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 1: Doesn't it tell us that sometimes this organization in its

830
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 1: current form tries too hard to be, cute tries too

831
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:54,080
Speaker 1: hard to say we're, different tries too hard to say

832
00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 1: we think.

833
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,600
Speaker 2: Out of the. Box because if.

834
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:00,759
Speaker 1: You look back on that higher in that, light in that,

835
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:04,960
Speaker 1: context you say it was kind of doomed for.

836
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 2: Failure was it?

837
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: Not what seemed quirky in the quezy resume then now

838
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:20,920
Speaker 1: seems almost outlandish and reckless when you look back on it.

839
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:24,520
Speaker 1: Now Mark craig's got an interesting piece in which he

840
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:28,440
Speaker 1: tries to compare and contrast the, people the football architects

841
00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 1: who've taken their teams to The Super bowl and The

842
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 1: quazy story with as A gm here In, minnesota and

843
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:48,319
Speaker 1: he notes that the number of starts That seattle has

844
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:52,880
Speaker 1: gotten from the thirty eight players that it's general Manager

845
00:52:53,000 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: John schneider drafted is five hundred and seventy. One that's

846
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,360
Speaker 1: just in the past four. Years thirty of those, players

847
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 1: that's seventy nine percent of them are still on the

848
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 1: team that will play The patriots later this.

849
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 2: Evening In Super.

850
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:14,319
Speaker 1: Bowl number sixty five hundred seventy one starts from the

851
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:18,840
Speaker 1: thirty eight Players schneider. Drafted one seventy two is the

852
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 1: number of starts The vikings have from the twenty eight

853
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,320
Speaker 1: players A doopa mensa drafted in the past four. Years

854
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: fourteen still on the. Team and as he, notes our

855
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: Guy Kevin seaffert has written that THE nfl average for

856
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 1: starts per team by players drafted the past four years

857
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 1: is three sixty. Eight so think of those. Numbers seattle

858
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 1: five seventy, One vikings one seventy two average Starts National

859
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,360
Speaker 1: Football league per team in the past four years three sixty.

860
00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:03,959
Speaker 1: Eight we are almost two hundred starts below the league

861
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 1: average and four hundred starts short of THE nfc team

862
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 1: that is representing it's side of The ledger.

863
00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 2: In The Super. Bowl, so.

864
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 1: In all, honesty as we Said, friday we got a

865
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 1: little bit far. Afield we can talk about paternity, leave

866
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:29,680
Speaker 1: we can talk about all sorts of things about detachment

867
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 1: with the coaches and how much you're in the building

868
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 1: and how you go about doing, it but what it

869
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: really comes down to are those cold hard. Numbers the

870
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: question that he asks in the piece is whether it

871
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:50,640
Speaker 1: was almost guaranteed that The vikings would find themselves in

872
00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:55,080
Speaker 1: this position four years later on the basis of what

873
00:54:55,200 --> 00:55:00,800
Speaker 1: we thought we knew we got wh we being The

874
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:04,840
Speaker 1: vikings because we're we reject meat and potatoes. Football we

875
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 1: Thought Rick spielman represented meat and potatoes. Football live, it eat,

876
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 1: it drink, it sleep, it snort, it the whole bit too.

877
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:20,920
Speaker 1: Much what's that really gotten? Us we need somebody who's.

878
00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:24,560
Speaker 2: Going to reinvent the. Wheel we're kind of we're kind

879
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 2: of intrigued by his background not being in. Football then

880
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:30,600
Speaker 2: he didn't grow up in, it.

881
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,800
Speaker 1: And we were very high in, ourselves like like we

882
00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:37,839
Speaker 1: thought we were pretty we did a pretty cool.

883
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 2: Thing we.

884
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,239
Speaker 1: Did pat ourselves in the. Back we're we know what we're.

885
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:45,799
Speaker 1: Doing we're smarter than everybody. Else do we still think

886
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:48,439
Speaker 1: we're smarter than everybody else going down that that? Road

887
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:53,080
Speaker 1: or do we, say, well according to these, numbers.

888
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:56,880
Speaker 2: We.

889
00:55:56,920 --> 00:56:04,120
Speaker 1: Failed we handed the job to someone, who again we

890
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,200
Speaker 1: thought would be helped by his, approach and in the,

891
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 1: end what we learned again is that being in this

892
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:17,760
Speaker 1: game to the degree that most of the general managers are.

893
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 2: Does give.

894
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,600
Speaker 1: You it doesn't guarantee, anything but it gives you a

895
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:27,600
Speaker 1: better chance of getting some level of.

896
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:33,719
Speaker 2: Success As craig, writes looking at the two.

897
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:35,319
Speaker 1: General managers The Super bowl illustrates just how far off

898
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: target The vikings were when they made A Dopha mensa

899
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:39,560
Speaker 1: one of the least experienced gms the league has ever.

900
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:42,439
Speaker 1: Seen the Former Ivy league basketball player In Wall Street,

901

Speaker 1: Commodities trader never played coach or scouted football before the

902

Speaker 1: an entry level job in twenty. Thirteen looking at the

904
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,840
Speaker 1: Two Super Bowl General managers also makes you want to

Speaker 1: organization for trying to be the smartest guys in the,

926
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,760

927
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:09,400
Speaker 1: Potatoes AND i think the lesson is meat and. POTATOES

Speaker 1: a steady diet of meat and, potatoes constant, evaluation living,

929

Speaker 1: Us but it's what gives you the best chance to

932
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 1: get to decent numbers of starts of players who are

933
00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 1: starting for you from your.

934
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:30,440
Speaker 2: Drafts doesn't guarantee.

935
00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 1: Anything lifers can still make bad drafting, decisions but it

936
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 1: gives you a better, chance and that to me should

937
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:43,800
Speaker 1: be the. LESSON i only think what we're, learning what's

938
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 1: what's being, really what's been, reinforced is we shouldn't be

939
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 1: surprised that this was the outcome that we sold ourselves

940
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 1: a bill of goods. On LIKE i, said you, know seemed,

941
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 1: cool sounded, different all that.

942
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,120
Speaker 2: Stuff and then we say we got to give him a.

943
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 2: Chance he's.

944
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:07,920
Speaker 1: Here all that stuff sounds, wonderful but in the, end

945
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: does it really serve what you're looking at or what

946
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,200
Speaker 1: chance you have to be? Successful so it's much more

947
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 1: on the organization for making this. Higher and again he

948
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:24,080
Speaker 1: was with various, teams but still relatively, speaking had almost

949
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 1: no experience compared to many of the others that were

950
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: being interviewed or at least being, discussed and many others

951
00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:35,480
Speaker 1: who have who absolutely have had the. Position and Again i've,

952
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,080
Speaker 1: said And i'll stick with this when it comes to

953
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,760
Speaker 1: the quarterback, FAILURE i don't put it all On. QUAZY

954
00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:42,720
Speaker 1: i think it's As i've said for, days it's too

955
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 1: easy to blame.

956
00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 2: Everything on, him the guy out the. Door he's got

957
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 2: nobody speaking up for.

958
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:51,160
Speaker 1: Him so you know, what we'll blame him for the

959
00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:53,400
Speaker 1: stuff that he's responsible. For you, know let's add a

960
00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:56,080
Speaker 1: couple other things, too because those were some of the

961
00:59:56,160 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 1: national stories that were, written not locals. Stories were some

962
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:07,520
Speaker 1: feeling behind the scenes That quasy was more insistent about

963
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 1: moving on From darnold than the head coach, was and

964
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,320
Speaker 1: there are some differences there between the two and On

965
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:15,640
Speaker 1: rogers et, cetera et.

966
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:17,560
Speaker 2: Cetera too easy to go down that.

967
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:20,600
Speaker 1: Road that's a shared, responsibility especially given the amount of.

968
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,440
Speaker 1: POWER i think it's very clear The vikings wanted to

969
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 1: give And quasy was willing to give the head coach

970
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 1: when it came to that sort of valuation and what

971
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:31,400
Speaker 1: approach to.

972
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,120
Speaker 2: Take So i'm stick going back to the.

973
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 1: Draft that's the meat and potatoes story. Here that's the

974
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 1: failure that has put The vikings in a. Position and,

975
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 1: again what's. Ironic their overall record in the four years

976
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,400
Speaker 1: here is. Good the regular season RECORD i think is.

977
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 2: Top, five but you can argue that it's.

978
01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:58,440
Speaker 1: Been it's BEEN i guess compiled in spite of a

979
01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 1: series of wings and misses in the draft that left

980
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 1: no margin for. Air meant they had to go out

981
01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 1: and spend a lot of money two years. AGO i

982
01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 1: think it looked. Good this past year not so, much

983
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:12,600
Speaker 1: but they had to spend it both years because their

984
01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:14,040
Speaker 1: draft was so.

985
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 2: Thin so, again newest.

986
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:22,040
Speaker 1: Good sometimes bean sprouts are good for, you they tell,

987
01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: me but meat potatoes.

988
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,040
Speaker 2: Might not hurt this. Organization have a little more of.

989
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:32,240
Speaker 1: That as much as AS i, said they like to

990
01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:39,920
Speaker 1: present themselves as this cutting edge post modern football franchise

991
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: like very few others.

992
01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:43,200
Speaker 2: Before we just they haven't done.

993
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:46,520
Speaker 1: Enough they've done nothing in the POSTSEASON i, think to

994
01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:49,120
Speaker 1: where they should be patting themselves on the back for

995
01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 1: how clever they are how capable they are of looking

996
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 1: looking out of the, box because that approach got them

997
01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:01,680
Speaker 1: into this current mess where they now now felt compelled

998
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 1: to look for another. Individual and that again has nothing

999
01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:11,720
Speaker 1: to do with whether he, was you, know the overblown

1000
01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 1: part of the story regarding the paternity to, leave or

1001
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 1: how often he was in the, office or how detached he,

1002
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:21,440
Speaker 1: was whatever the case may. Be it has to do with,

1003
01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:26,080
Speaker 1: results and you're going to give as in THE, nfl

1004
01:02:26,240 --> 01:02:30,520
Speaker 1: if you're the talent, evaluator there's two ways to do.

1005
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:33,600
Speaker 1: It you can be the one who evaluates from the

1006
01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:39,520
Speaker 1: beginning and trusts his own, instincts and or you put

1007
01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 1: people around you who also you trust in that regard

1008
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 1: and that combination ends up giving you a good chance to.

1009
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:49,720
Speaker 1: Success and that's about not just, analytics where there's a

1010
01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 1: place in the league for no, question but also just

1011
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 1: the proper evaluation of a player that goes back to

1012
01:02:57,960 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 1: what you've learned over the course.

1013
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 2: Of time you have been in that particular.

1014
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:05,760
Speaker 1: Business so his, point AND i think it dovetails with

1015
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:08,040
Speaker 1: what we've kind of talked about the last week or,

1016
01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 1: so is that we really shouldn't be shocked that this

1017
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:20,280
Speaker 1: was the result that this was the, outcome and we

1018
01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 1: got to get over. Ourselves this, ORGANIZATION i, think has

1019
01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:27,520
Speaker 1: to get over itself about always trying to say we're,

1020
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 1: different or we're cutting, edge or we're doing something that

1021
01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:34,960
Speaker 1: no one else is, doing because you can talk yourself

1022
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:39,320
Speaker 1: into this sort of colossal, error and from a drafting,

1023
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:42,000
Speaker 1: standpoint it's an error that's going to take them a

1024
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:44,520
Speaker 1: lot of time to recover. From, right when you have

1025
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 1: four years of, that then you're not going to get

1026
01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:48,880
Speaker 1: out of it in fifteen.

1027
01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:50,960
Speaker 2: Minutes just stop.

1028
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:55,960
Speaker 1: Being so, cute make solid decisions that are well grounded in,

1029
01:03:56,280 --> 01:04:01,280
Speaker 1: what year after year is proven to be the best

1030
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 1: chance for success when it comes to talent. Evaluation by the,

1031
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:13,520
Speaker 1: way There's Kirk cousins. News seems to be more speculation

1032
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 1: That kirk and The vikings might be. Reunited huh. Interesting

1033
01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:29,320
Speaker 1: how do we feel about? That my guess is most

1034
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:34,080
Speaker 1: rooms are not. Inspired but we're back to what we

1035
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:39,320
Speaker 1: talked about last. Week your alternatives aren't necessarily all real,

1036
01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 1: attractive SO i don't think you can rule out the

1037
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:45,680
Speaker 1: possibility that he could end up back. HERE i like

1038
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:49,960
Speaker 1: what somebody said via THE x. Machine if The vikings

1039
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:53,640
Speaker 1: And cousins are, reunited cousins should have to pay The

1040
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:57,200
Speaker 1: vikings to come back, here rather than The vikings should

1041
01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 1: have to continue to pay him even the minimum, sell

1042
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:01,640
Speaker 1: which is an interesting way to put, it given how

1043
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:03,240
Speaker 1: much money he made while he was.

1044
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:04,240
Speaker 2: Here study.

1045
01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:06,280
Speaker 1: Sermons will come back and get to some of your

1046
01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:30,720
Speaker 1: texts and some other. Controversies six four six eighty. Six

1047
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:32,680
Speaker 1: that's The bradshaw On brian Caffe in text line which

1048
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 1: has been very. Brisk the text line traffic today has

1049
01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 1: been very. Brisk we appreciate. Interest final half hour of

1050
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:43,880
Speaker 1: the program been a busy one. Today we've covered a

1051
01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 1: lot of. Items the bad news Early Lindsey vaughan crashing

1052
01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:53,160
Speaker 1: and getting injured what eleven to thirteen seconds into her

1053
01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:58,520
Speaker 1: downhill event today and so obviously the dream has died

1054
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 1: for any kind of, finish any kind of, metal et.

1055
01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:03,680
Speaker 1: Cetera i've not heard any sort of update on her.

1056
01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:09,280
Speaker 1: Condition members of her FAMILY i think have have.

1057
01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:10,080
Speaker 2: Been quoted.

1058
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,840
Speaker 1: As as as, saying, obviously this was a great. DISAPPOINTMENT

1059
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,200
Speaker 1: i think she's gonna be. Fine but the extent of

1060
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 1: the actual injury she, suffered she had to be helicoptered

1061
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 1: out evacuated because this was very, early AS i said

1062
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:29,160
Speaker 1: in the in the, race but that was the, unfortunate

1063
01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:33,520
Speaker 1: sad news that we got, regarding LIKE i, said one

1064
01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 1: of the built, in most highly anticipated.

1065
01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 2: Stories and, look if.

1066
01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:41,280
Speaker 1: You're a hardcore of the of The Winter, olympics if

1067
01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:47,960
Speaker 1: you're a hardcore how DO i put, It olympics fan

1068
01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:52,800
Speaker 1: of those esoteric, sports you might not need a story like.

1069
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:54,640
Speaker 1: That you might SAY i got twelve other things That

1070
01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:59,000
Speaker 1: i'm fascinated with as, Well BUT i think what you

1071
01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:01,400
Speaker 1: have to remember is for a lot of casual, fans

1072
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:06,160
Speaker 1: they NEED i guess you could say story. Threads they

1073
01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:11,280
Speaker 1: need angles that excite, them and this was one of.

1074
01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:15,040
Speaker 1: Them the story kind of wrote itself right the fact

1075
01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:18,600
Speaker 1: that she had started at this advanced, age a tremendous,

1076
01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:22,400
Speaker 1: comeback had great success on the, tour so everything was

1077
01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:24,600
Speaker 1: in place to think that she could.

1078
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:26,000
Speaker 2: Meddle and maybe even win the damn thing.

1079
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:32,480
Speaker 1: Again and then she gets, hurt shreads HER i think

1080
01:07:32,520 --> 01:07:38,440
Speaker 1: it was her left knee and Says i'm still gonna.

1081
01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:40,840
Speaker 1: Participate no one's going to tell me what to do

1082
01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 1: and to not, do which a lot of us have,

1083
01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 1: celebrated but unfortunately it ended badly for her. Today by the,

1084
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 1: way it is worth noting somebody has, Asked i'm assuming

1085
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:53,160
Speaker 1: this game might be one of our sister stations going

01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,439

1104
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:47,160
Speaker 2: be a two o'clock.

1105
01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:49,439
Speaker 1: Game you can double check the time on the on

1107
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:56,040
Speaker 1: be the story. Angle, Right let's get the early look

1108
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:59,439
Speaker 1: AT iow and let's see how the team responds to

1109
01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:03,960
Speaker 1: the the savagery from the stifle tower from within the.

1110
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:10,320
Speaker 1: Building somebody had texted, earlier look WHAT i mean the

1111
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,080
Speaker 1: rooty thing didn't mean that much to this listener because

1112
01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:16,000
Speaker 1: he said he's done it several times he. Has it's

1113
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:20,000
Speaker 1: a fair, POINT i would. Argue part of the, reason

1114
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:22,360
Speaker 1: that's part of the reason he took it someplace he hasn't.

1115
01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:28,439
Speaker 1: BEFORE i think this time it was meant to nudge

1116
01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:33,120
Speaker 1: the head coach or the coaching, staff or to, say,

1117
01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:36,320
Speaker 1: Well i've tried doing it this other way and it

1118
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:37,800
Speaker 1: just kind of keeps, happening so you know what to.

1119
01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:40,040
Speaker 1: Do i'm Gonna i'm gonna speak out a turn here

1120
01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:42,840
Speaker 1: a little bit and go a little bit. Further i'm

1121
01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:46,080
Speaker 1: Not i'm talking to him about. It but that's my

1122
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,200
Speaker 1: guess is he decided to go a little further because

1123
01:09:48,240 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: he knew that it's something that he had brought up

1124
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:53,360
Speaker 1: sometime before as.

1125
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:59,840
Speaker 2: Well this Is larry out Of. Georgia the numbers don't.

1126
01:09:59,880 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 1: Lie here's WHAT i would like to, know Was quasy

1127
01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 1: making these decisions on his own and going against The

1128
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:07,800
Speaker 1: scouts or staff deserve blame as. Well That's larry out

1129
01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 1: Of georgia combo. Platter in the, end that's where the

1130
01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 1: bucks got to. Stop and in the, end you'd like

1131
01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:20,679
Speaker 1: to think that you have a person in charge who

1132
01:10:20,760 --> 01:10:24,519
Speaker 1: is steeped enough in. Evaluation and that's the FLAW i

1133
01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:28,439
Speaker 1: think with this whole higher from the beginning to give

1134
01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:31,519
Speaker 1: yourself the best chance to have that person break, ties

1135
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:36,560
Speaker 1: maybe overrule, scouts or come to some kind of consensus

1136
01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:39,160
Speaker 1: with scouts as. Well it's always, shared but in the

1137
01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:43,720
Speaker 1: end it's got to be the responsibility of the person in.

1138
01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,400
Speaker 1: Charge by the, WAY i forgot to pay off the

1139
01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:50,080
Speaker 1: tease about a comment somebody made about The Lindsay vaughn.

1140
01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:55,559
Speaker 1: Story and this person said that she, ran she, raced

1141
01:10:56,040 --> 01:11:00,479
Speaker 1: or skied for only one reason or continued to her.

1142
01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:07,120
Speaker 1: Ego she's an. Egomaniac And i'm assuming that that person

1143
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:14,160
Speaker 1: hasn't spent much time around world class, athletes Because i'll

1144
01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:19,040
Speaker 1: just tell, you if you don't think the best of

1145
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:27,160
Speaker 1: the best can indeed be ego maniacal or have outsized,

1146
01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:32,640
Speaker 1: egos you haven't been paying attention some of the greatest

1147
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:36,880
Speaker 1: individual sport athletes and team sport Athletes i've ever covered

1148
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:44,479
Speaker 1: had way than a fair share of arrogance and. Ego

1149
01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:51,120
Speaker 1: so if you think that's, DISQUALIFYING i don't know what

1150
01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:52,640
Speaker 1: to tell. You i'd say you're going to be very

1151
01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:54,479
Speaker 1: disappointed to find out about how many of your favorite

1152
01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:59,640
Speaker 1: athletes also were ego. Maniacal make no, mistake you have

1153
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:05,120
Speaker 1: to have a very oversized view of yourself and what

1154
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:07,120
Speaker 1: you think you can do to get done what you.

1155
01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:10,559
Speaker 1: Do so if he meant, it if that texture meant

1156
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:14,679
Speaker 1: it as a, rip that's, fine BECAUSE i don't doubt

1157
01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:17,360
Speaker 1: that ego is part of what was driving her to

1158
01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 1: Say i'm gonna do something everybody SAYS i can't. Do

1159
01:12:20,479 --> 01:12:25,240
Speaker 1: but that's often the essence of great athletic performance and

1160
01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:30,519
Speaker 1: great athletes. APPROACH i GUESS i don't find that all

1161
01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:36,800
Speaker 1: that different or all that, unusual AND i certainly would

1162
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: not call it. DISQUALIFYING i would Say dan wasn't The

1163
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:46,679
Speaker 1: this is From ed And Saint. Paul the other finals

1164
01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,400
Speaker 1: for The VICES gm position went To quayzy The Chicago

1165
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,599
Speaker 1: bears Guy Ryan poles came from The, chiefs Drafting caleb

1166
01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:54,639
Speaker 1: A no, brainer but he fixed THEIR o, line While

1167
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:57,760
Speaker 1: vikings remain a work in. Progress of fair to, say

1168
01:12:57,760 --> 01:12:59,680
Speaker 1: the In chicago so far happy with their guy after

1169
01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:03,040
Speaker 1: nail The Ben johnson, Higher, well we talked about this a.

1170
01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:08,640
Speaker 2: Lot and in that, VEIN i think.

1171
01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:13,040
Speaker 1: We could argue That poles would have been a far

1172
01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:16,479
Speaker 1: more traditional higher because of what he grew up in

1173
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 1: and what his background, was far more than.

1174
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:21,400
Speaker 2: Quazy.

1175
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:28,160
Speaker 1: Now the scuttle but at the time was that, polls

1176
01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:31,479
Speaker 1: this was what we discussed when we're looking for NEW.

1177
01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:36,519
Speaker 1: Gm what did the owners? Wanted how did the owners

1178
01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:37,320
Speaker 1: decide which way to.

1179
01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:39,439
Speaker 2: Go was it.

1180
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:43,200
Speaker 1: Taking the guy who told them what they wanted to

1181
01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:47,280
Speaker 1: hear or was it taking the guy who told us

1182
01:13:47,280 --> 01:13:50,479
Speaker 1: what we need to. Hear the, DIFFERENCE i think is not.

1183
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:56,360
Speaker 1: Subtle the feeling was there was a decent chance that

1184
01:13:56,360 --> 01:13:59,720
Speaker 1: that what The vikings owners wanted to hear was you

1185
01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 1: don't have to tear this. Down you can do a

1186
01:14:02,200 --> 01:14:06,120
Speaker 1: quote unquote competitive. Rebuild we can get this. Done give

1187
01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:10,120
Speaker 1: me a, chance And crazy to that extent told the

1188
01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:13,320
Speaker 1: owners exactly what they wanted to, hear and then it

1189
01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:16,000
Speaker 1: was more likely that polls said.

1190
01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:19,240
Speaker 2: You might be stuck in the.

1191
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,360
Speaker 1: Middle here where as painful as it, is you might

1192
01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 1: have to tear it down. First now is that an

1193
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:26,840
Speaker 1: oversimplification of What pole? SAID i don't, know BUT i

1194
01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:29,679
Speaker 1: do think it's fair to say that at the time

1195
01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:33,479
Speaker 1: The vikings owners didn't want to hear. That whether it

1196
01:14:33,520 --> 01:14:35,320
Speaker 1: was what they needed to hear or, not they didn't

1197
01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:37,240
Speaker 1: want to hear. It now they may have, say, well

1198
01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:39,280
Speaker 1: we feel vindicated in. That look at the number of

1199
01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:42,360
Speaker 1: regular season games we've. Won but obviously they're not satisfied

1200
01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 1: enough by that because they've made this decision to move.

1201
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:50,000
Speaker 1: AWAY i think polls to that extent is more. Traditional

1202
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:50,880
Speaker 1: has he made all great?

1203
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:55,839
Speaker 2: Moves? No is it hard to screw up The Ben johnson.

1204
01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:58,800
Speaker 1: Higher everybody thought he had a chance to be really,

1205
01:14:58,800 --> 01:15:01,439
Speaker 1: good but nevertheless he got it done or they got it.

1206
01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:04,760
Speaker 2: Done for, sure that's very.

1207
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:10,680
Speaker 1: Important and their offensive line moves definitely worked better Than

1208
01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:15,760
Speaker 1: quazy's offseason offensive line. Moves both teams basically were trying

1209
01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:19,639
Speaker 1: to remake their offensive lines on the on the. Fly

1210
01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:27,160
Speaker 1: i'm looking for more opinions On kirk Oat chains coming.

1211
01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:30,439
Speaker 1: Back do you want the meat and potatoes Of Kirk

1212
01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:33,040
Speaker 1: cousins coming? Back, ever he's cut from The. Falcons, well,

1213
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:38,040
Speaker 1: again it depends on who my other choices.

1214
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:38,720
Speaker 2: Are what are my other.

1215
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:42,840
Speaker 1: Options on the face of, It i'd say, No i'd

1216
01:15:42,880 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 1: rather not go back down that.

1217
01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:46,280
Speaker 2: Road i'm not.

1218
01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:49,640
Speaker 1: CONVINCED i saw enough to feel, like, well then you

1219
01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:52,559
Speaker 1: got a chance to he has a chance to reinvent

1220
01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:55,639
Speaker 1: himself and come back and be a big time.

1221
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:59,200
Speaker 2: Contributor i'd rather not go back to the.

1222
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:01,200
Speaker 1: Future BUT i have to know what my other, positive

1223
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:04,479
Speaker 1: what my other options are that are, Attainable i'll say,

1224
01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:07,160
Speaker 1: again and we're Gonna we'll talk To seafert early this,

1225
01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:07,799
Speaker 1: week Probably.

1226
01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:10,439
Speaker 2: Tuesday but.

1227
01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:14,760
Speaker 1: The feeling seems to BE i think the way he

1228
01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:18,599
Speaker 1: put it in writing was that at the quarterback, position

1229
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:21,880
Speaker 1: when it comes TO jj, McCarthy all bets are off

1230
01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:28,280
Speaker 1: based on the sources he's talked, to and that, is if,

1231
01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:33,280
Speaker 1: true massive that's in effect saying all the other things

1232
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:34,480
Speaker 1: that we were worried.

1233
01:16:34,240 --> 01:16:37,120
Speaker 2: About.

1234
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:46,600
Speaker 1: Frustrating the young QUARTERBACK, jj worrying or fretting about a quarterback,

1235
01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:50,679
Speaker 1: circus if we open it up to, competition all those

1236
01:16:50,720 --> 01:16:52,080
Speaker 1: things is, well if you're going to do this.

1237
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:53,400
Speaker 2: The right, way we're not going to do it that.

1238
01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:56,320
Speaker 1: Way we've got to just keep nurturing him as the

1239
01:16:56,360 --> 01:16:58,880
Speaker 1: guy we do not have to. Have we do not

1240
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,760
Speaker 1: need a competition that is going to complicate things and

1241
01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:06,320
Speaker 1: maybe even bother him or his. Representatives it sounds like

1242
01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:08,080
Speaker 1: they're basically, saying, now.

1243
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:13,080
Speaker 2: We don't. Care that's a survival.

1244
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:17,240
Speaker 1: INSTINCT i think Right quazy's, gone that means the last

1245
01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 1: guy standing Is koc and he's got to be smart

1246
01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:23,000
Speaker 1: enough to, know despite the great regular season record, overall

1247
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:27,400
Speaker 1: that he's going to sink or swim on whether The

1248
01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:31,479
Speaker 1: vikings figure out this quarterback. Thing and at that, point

1249
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:35,280
Speaker 1: when that survival instinct kicks, in you worry less about

1250
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:37,400
Speaker 1: whether there's going to be a circus Or jackals Like

1251
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:40,320
Speaker 1: seaford are going to be asking every day when when

1252
01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:43,160
Speaker 1: one of the two quarterbacks. Stumbles if McCarthy starts the

1253
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:45,800
Speaker 1: season and throws a pick six in his first, game

1254
01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:51,040
Speaker 1: will he start On sunday against The saints whatever the next.

1255
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:55,080
Speaker 2: Week you don't want to have those kinds of.

1256
01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:57,280
Speaker 1: Circus there's those kinds of questions to answer unless you

1257
01:17:57,320 --> 01:17:59,920
Speaker 1: feel like you have no choice and you feel like

1258
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:03,240
Speaker 1: you're surviving or you're trying to save your. Job then

1259
01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:04,880
Speaker 1: suddenly you. Go we got to do what we got to.

1260
01:18:04,920 --> 01:18:08,000
Speaker 1: Do we can go out and find. Somebody we're going

1261
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:10,639
Speaker 1: to open it. Up the competition from the beginning training

1262
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:12,240
Speaker 1: camp is going to be an open competition and may

1263
01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 1: the best man. WIN i don't even think you can

1264
01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:16,400
Speaker 1: rule out the possibility of McCarthy being, dealt Although i'm

1265
01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:17,680
Speaker 1: not even sure what you can get for him at this.

1266
01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:19,439
Speaker 2: POINT i think all bets are.

1267
01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:24,240
Speaker 1: Off might well mean what it says that this team

1268
01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:26,320
Speaker 1: is going to take a, long hard look at itself

1269
01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:29,360
Speaker 1: moving forward at the quarterback. Position whatever they felt like

1270
01:18:29,520 --> 01:18:31,840
Speaker 1: was in, place no matter what they felt a year

1271
01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:35,559
Speaker 1: ago was the right. Approach now it's we got to

1272
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,000
Speaker 1: do whatever we have to, do even if it means

1273
01:18:38,040 --> 01:18:41,720
Speaker 1: parish the thought going back to what everybody in this town,

1274
01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:46,719
Speaker 1: hates which is a short term solution involving perhaps an aging.

1275
01:18:46,760 --> 01:18:49,559
Speaker 1: Player we're indeed ready to do. It one more. Break

1276
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:52,519
Speaker 1: we'll come back and wrap up the. Program read a

1277
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:56,559
Speaker 1: few more texts and see If fallless can add any

1278
01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 1: kind of hockey analysis to this.

1279
01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:00,240
Speaker 2: EDITION A Sunday Serm it's.

Speaker 1: ME i wonder if he's a Big Super bowl, Guy Elvis, presto.

1283
01:19:35,120 --> 01:19:36,240
Speaker 2: Provided he was the.

1284

Speaker 1: Headliner The Immortal, Yeah Elvis presto was the headliner halftime

Speaker 2: BOWL i think we said twenty three.

Speaker 1: Really good, game but not so Much Elvis, presto The

1288
01:19:49,640 --> 01:19:55,559
Speaker 1: elvis impersonator also doing a stadium wide card trick involving

1289
01:19:55,680 --> 01:19:59,080
Speaker 1: every member of the. AUDIENCE i guess you could say

1290
01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:05,520
Speaker 1: we've come a long way since. Then adam And minnetonka

1291
01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:11,400
Speaker 1: honest feedback from stifled. Tower finchy mad at his lack of,

1292
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:17,000
Speaker 1: Power Gerb schmidt uses trademark Super bowl and doesn't Cower wolves.

1293
01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:19,720
Speaker 2: In five pretty good long.

1294
01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:24,920
Speaker 1: ONE i have no problem With Lindsey vaughan being, egomaniac

1295
01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:27,040
Speaker 1: BUT i think the coaches have a responsibility to save

1296
01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:30,160
Speaker 1: her from. Herself she should have been out there with

1297
01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:33,400
Speaker 1: a RUPTURED. ACL i did have somebody, say because we

1298
01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:38,439
Speaker 1: had a physical therapist say she couldn't really do any

1299
01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:40,919
Speaker 1: more damage to. It but THEN i had a, doctor

1300
01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:46,280
Speaker 1: an orthopedic doctor, afterwards say not so, fast my, friend

1301
01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:49,040
Speaker 1: you can't be certain of. That in, fact there are

1302
01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:52,559
Speaker 1: ways in which more of damage might be, done so

1303
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:53,080
Speaker 1: that's worth.

1304
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:53,559
Speaker 2: Discussing.

1305
01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:57,519
Speaker 1: Dan there's a picture Of Lindsay van's run today where

1306
01:20:57,520 --> 01:20:59,479
Speaker 1: apparently her pole got hooked up in one of the

1307
01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:03,439
Speaker 1: flags around that, turn got wrapped in. It somehow she

1308
01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:05,680
Speaker 1: got too close to it and that's what made her

1309
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:09,320
Speaker 1: lose her balance and that led to her being out

1310
01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:13,439
Speaker 1: somewhere between eleven and thirteen seconds into her downhill, race

1311
01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:17,280
Speaker 1: ending The Lindsey Vonn. Dream this is a tim checking

1312
01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:18,879
Speaker 1: in From Lovely San Diego.

1313
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:21,120
Speaker 2: Morning great.

1314
01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:23,679
Speaker 1: Show reminder That Lindsay vaughn won Two World cup goals

1315
01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:26,679
Speaker 1: before The olympics. Began she is a once in a lifetime,

1316
01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:28,680
Speaker 1: athlete and of course she has an. Ego she's in her.

1317
01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:32,519
Speaker 1: Forties just enjoy and be. Amazed that's WHERE i am

1318
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:35,720
Speaker 1: now the question of coaches stepping, in BECAUSE i did

1319
01:21:35,800 --> 01:21:41,559
Speaker 1: ask that koc step in On Carson. Wentz different, circumstance, team,

1320
01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:43,360
Speaker 1: sport a lot of, variables there.

1321
01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:48,639
Speaker 2: A lot of DIFFERENCES i guess between the. Two but.

1322
01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:54,599
Speaker 1: My guess is that they may have talked to her

1323
01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:57,519
Speaker 1: and they made said you sure you realize you know

1324
01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:00,320
Speaker 1: some of the concerns here that we have for. You

1325
01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:03,400
Speaker 1: but my guess is they probably know her well enough

1326
01:22:03,400 --> 01:22:06,240
Speaker 1: to say this is her. Moment she is trained to

1327
01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:10,360
Speaker 1: get back to, this and that is WHAT i said

1328
01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:12,160
Speaker 1: at the start of the. Show my guess is what

1329
01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:15,719
Speaker 1: we're going to hear from her is, yeah it ended.

1330
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:18,400
Speaker 1: Badly it did not end the WAY i wanted it.

1331
01:22:18,439 --> 01:22:23,280
Speaker 1: To but IF i hadn't done it at, ALL i

1332
01:22:23,280 --> 01:22:25,920
Speaker 1: would have been haunted by wondering what might have. Been

1333
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:30,200
Speaker 1: AND i don't blame it for. That when you're a

1334
01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:35,640
Speaker 1: world class athlete or in that, sense that's that's the

1335
01:22:35,680 --> 01:22:37,800
Speaker 1: way you, think and you're the one who has to

1336
01:22:37,800 --> 01:22:46,080
Speaker 1: live with the consequences and the. Ramifications do you think

1337
01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:47,920
Speaker 1: The vikings are really at that point after eight? Starts

1338
01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:49,200
Speaker 1: did you give up on a twenty two to twenty

1339
01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:51,400
Speaker 1: three year old? Quarterback or is just such pressure for

1340
01:22:51,479 --> 01:22:53,479
Speaker 1: fans in the media that we have to win now

1341
01:22:53,479 --> 01:22:54,760
Speaker 1: that we can't let the kid play for a couple

1342
01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:57,360
Speaker 1: of years and. Develop, well it goes back to what

1343
01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:01,360
Speaker 1: your expectations are for the. Team if The vikings made

1344
01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:06,120
Speaker 1: an announcement with you know whoever their NEW gm is

1345
01:23:06,160 --> 01:23:08,280
Speaker 1: going to be, eventually they're they're not gonna do that.

1346
01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:11,479
Speaker 1: Now Or Robert zinsky gets the, job and he, said

1347
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:13,960
Speaker 1: he gets in front of the microphones and, said boys and,

1348
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:19,040
Speaker 1: girls we're done with the competitive. Rebuild we are going

1349
01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:23,200
Speaker 1: in a completely different. Direction this is a. Process it's

1350
01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:27,439
Speaker 1: going to take more than a. Minute then everything, changes

1351
01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:30,439
Speaker 1: including the. Patients WITH jj. McCarthy the problem you, have

1352
01:23:30,479 --> 01:23:32,400
Speaker 1: The Sticky wicked is you have a world class receiver

1353
01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:35,040
Speaker 1: who you probably would have to trade at that point

1354
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:37,840
Speaker 1: if you make that kind of proclamation or even if

1355
01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:41,639
Speaker 1: you behind the scenes make decisions that say as, much

1356
01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:44,040
Speaker 1: even if you do not have that kind of on

1357
01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:49,679
Speaker 1: the record. Proclamation and, NO i don't think you should

1358
01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:53,600
Speaker 1: give up on. McCarthy i. DON'T i think that'd be.

1359
01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:57,320
Speaker 1: FOOLISH i think you have to play it out and

1360
01:23:57,439 --> 01:23:59,320
Speaker 1: continue to give him a. CHANCE i just don't think

1361
01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:04,559
Speaker 1: you can afford any longer to pretend that you know

1362
01:24:04,680 --> 01:24:07,080
Speaker 1: he's the, guy or that you can even count on

1363
01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:10,040
Speaker 1: him being the, guy because you just can't stay on the.

1364
01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 2: Field you have to.

1365
01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:15,240
Speaker 1: Hedge you've got to hedge your, bet which apparently is

1366
01:24:15,280 --> 01:24:16,720
Speaker 1: what they wanted to do last, year but they were

1367
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:20,559
Speaker 1: unable to Keep Daniel. Jones so, NO i wouldn't give

1368
01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:26,240
Speaker 1: up on. Him we've seen players. Emerge the issue remains

1369
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:30,280
Speaker 1: that they want to be they want to compete right.

1370
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:32,920
Speaker 1: Now maybe that's where they're kidding, themselves and then that's

1371
01:24:32,920 --> 01:24:35,320
Speaker 1: where maybe you end up deciding to go a very different.

1372
01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:43,720
Speaker 1: Direction six one two guy Rights Christian ponder is only

1373
01:24:43,760 --> 01:24:44,320
Speaker 1: thirty seven.

1374
01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:48,200
Speaker 2: Man that would be a hell of a, story would.

1375
01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:52,759
Speaker 1: It not looking for or bringing in a veteran quarterback

1376
01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:54,360
Speaker 1: to starting cheer for The vikings is a flat out

1377
01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:58,800
Speaker 1: bailout of Koc it. Is that's BECAUSE i, said when

1378
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:01,920
Speaker 1: it comes to the, quarterback his fingerprints around this every

1379
01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:04,400
Speaker 1: bit as much As quazy draft Is quazies and it's

1380
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:06,800
Speaker 1: a problem and that's ultimately why they made them move.

1381
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:10,120
Speaker 2: Clearly but the quarterback absolutely shared a.

1382
01:25:10,160 --> 01:25:13,120
Speaker 1: Responsibility not a lot of appetite for, cousins according to the,

1383
01:25:13,120 --> 01:25:15,640
Speaker 1: Textures AND i kind of understand that there's that feeling that.

1384
01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:17,040
Speaker 2: We've been, there we're going.

1385
01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:20,920
Speaker 1: Backwards let's find some other veteran THAT i can get used.

1386
01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:24,040
Speaker 1: To thank you for, Watching thank you for. Listening worst case,

1387
01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:25,200
Speaker 1: scenario what ninety minute?

1388
01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:25,680
Speaker 2: Edition is that?

1389
01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:28,200
Speaker 1: Correct that's, correct that's coming up Super Bowl action on The.
