1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Ahead, common man, common man, No show pep, no solid plan,

2
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:08,399
Speaker 1: says the art.

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 2: We can't tell secarit aproachal tilt. It's time of common man,

4
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: com man, common man, charge the houseworks that no one

5
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: can what you shoot? Where we play no nonsense on

6
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 2: deck to day to day man. It's type of common man.

7
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:35,239
Speaker 3: Okay, Why should anybody aspire to be a common man?

8
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 3: An average man? Do you realize what it means to

9
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 3: be average? That means you're the best of the lousiest

10
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 3: and the lousiest of the best. Now, if we demand

11
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 3: more and more for producing less and less while they

12
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 3: have not, nations encourage and inspire and indeed require hard

13
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: work and maximum effort. If we deify the common man

14
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 3: while they encourage and reward the uncommon ones, well, the

15
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 3: and result of such a lopsided raceist that is too

16
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 3: obvious to require elaboration.

17
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 2: I mean, it's like hello in Chicago's a tough guy town.

18
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 2: When the Vikings and the Bears play, it's it's a

19
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: street fight. If you're gonna get ready for a street fight,

20
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 2: you better start getting ready down There's sometimes when you practice,

21
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 2: you'll set up chairs when you're right, chairs with s

22
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 2: gone right too deep and it looks like a.

23
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: Christ Nothing better appen, King, I think I think that

24
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: all that's lights rice rices that can in the rather

25
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: purple side.

26
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 4: Camn dancer, What are you doing?

27
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 2: We can't start winning until we stop losing splation. When

00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,880

Speaker 4: Right? That gotcha? Right? That gotcha?

35
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 5: Ladies and gentlemen, we're seeing what a sufist cad offensive

36
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 5: game plan looks like.

37
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 4: You talk about.

38
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: You don't know nothing.

39
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 5: He's the clown from Brown, He's the fourth in the North.

40
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: Number one is the common man Dan Cole number one.

41
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 5: Now that might not last for very long, and it

42
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 5: was just for one week, but.

43
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 2: That's what we do. It appears to be more of

44
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: a trend than a mirage.

45
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I'm comfortable with where I've been, where I'm going,

46
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 5: where I'm at and uh, you know, there was a

47
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:45,839
Speaker 5: time I think you were just along for the ride,

48
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 5: but not anymore.

49
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 2: You're driving force on.

Speaker 2: On on our behalf.

53
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 5: I'm the only one I think that that, you know,

54
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 5: when we do those liners in the Vikings games that

55
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 5: I mentioned, Yeah, Common in Tennabe, I mentioned your name.

56
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 2: You're I'm about to get really emotional here. Thanks for

00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 2: being who you are. Wally, Gee, Wally, There's.

59
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 6: you do mention me, and that's making me feel more

60
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 6: part of the show. You know, in the the wall

61
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 6: over by a studio c or the KFAM press box.

62
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 6: I got all the fan personnel, they got all the

63
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 6: personalities the entire radio station. None of the producers are

64
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 6: never on there. You know, I hadn't even thought about it. Common,

65
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 6: It's just Barrero, it's just Paul Allen.

66
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 5: Even Rosen has a picture you are there, He's Rosen's

67
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 5: on there. You've got to be kidding them personality. So

68
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 5: have you ever noticed a lot of those pictures are outdated.

69
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 5: We have pairings that.

70
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 2: No longer exist, and there's empty space now, yeah.

71
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 5: There's there'll be a picture of two people that were

72
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 5: doing a show at a radio station ere one time,

73
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 5: and those two people no longer doing a show together.

74
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 2: It's kind of crazy that way, and you know there

75
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 2: are there are those.

76
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 5: I'm already getting the text messages from the Brad Shawn

77
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 5: Bryant Kafan text line are you going to spind the

78
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:07,559
Speaker 5: Wheel of Topic?

79
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 2: I aired today?

80
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 5: I was in contact with Superintendent Guy Too over at

81
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 5: Lagger's Ross and I said, it doesn't look like nine

82
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 5: o'clock is going to work today.

83
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 2: Goes well, it looks pretty frosty. He didn't say no.

84
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 2: So then I called over there to see what.

85
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 5: Time I could go out tomorrow and Peg answered the

86
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 5: phone and she said, Peg, it will come back to you,

87
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 5: and she said, oh no, there's going on. So she said,

88
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,679
Speaker 5: they're going out right now. I could have played this morning,

89
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 5: but I didn't think I could. It was I misjudged it.

90
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: It was it was.

91
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 5: It was so I know that there are people out

92
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 5: there right now that are going to feel that their

93
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 5: day is not fulfilled because they don't get to hear

94
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 5: the Wheel of Topic today.

95
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: But we'll be there tomorrow, We'll we'll.

96
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 5: Be we'll be back out of tomorrow and I'm playing

97
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 5: Saturday as well. I think that probably will be it.

98
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 5: I mean, there was there was some consideration of taking

99
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 5: tomorrow off sixty five.

100
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 2: Degrees tomorrow to the middle of November.

101
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 5: But then you start thinking to yourself, I played two

102
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 5: hundred and twenty five rounds of golf this year. Do

103
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 5: I really need to take a day off to squeeze

104
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 5: in one more round of golf?

105
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 2: And I decided no, I.

106
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 5: Said, I needed to be here for the listeners partaking

107
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 5: it on in a Friday with a big game coming up,

108
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 5: Bear's Vikings, you know what else? Here's you know, I

109
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 5: don't get an opportunity to listen to the radio much,

110
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 5: and but I here are some of the things I'm missing.

111
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 5: This is what I missed today on the Paul Allen Project.

112
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 5: Apparently I checked my email when I got here at

113
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 5: the radio station. Listeners said Ben Lieber was on with

114
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 5: with PA, and you know what he told PA, we

115
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 5: need to stay out of third and eights and get

116
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,119
Speaker 5: more third and threes.

117
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 2: And I thought, why didn't I think of that?

118
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: Way?

119
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 5: You can get insight like that except from Ben Lieber

120
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 5: or Mark Rosen, Because my guess is Rosen will come

121
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 5: in today and say, you know what the Vikings really

122
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 5: if he says what the Vikings need to do is

123
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 5: stay out.

124
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 2: Of third and long third and eighths and do third

125
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 2: and threes. Will know that he was.

126
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 5: Stealing another of liebers takes. But that's what liber came

127
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 5: up with. I would have never thought of that. That

128
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 5: was always one of my biggest pet peeves in the past.

129
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 5: You'd always hear like analysis of the Vikings. You know,

130
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 5: the Vikings need to do better on third down? What

131
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 5: does that mean?

132
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 2: Right like that?

133
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 6: It gives no analysis as to how you become better

134
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 6: at third down. You're just saying you have to get

135
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 6: better at third down. And part of being good on

136
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 6: third down is you need to be good on first

137
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 6: and second town. If you put yourself in a third thirteen,

138
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 6: you're not gonna go that third day. I know, I

139
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 6: know this is mind long stuff.

140
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 2: I got to give you one of these. Where is it?

141
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 2: Where's brilliant? Its brilliant? Brilliant might be the one that

142
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 2: I lost. Well, you'd also lost Delicious. I had to

143
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 2: put Delicious back. I think I lost brilliant too, because

144
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 2: I remember looking at your page, Evie, you had two

145
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 2: of something. Yeah, I had two where you have the two.

146
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 5: I had to, but they don't have to because you

147
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 5: put jokers Delicious put Delicious on there.

148
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 2: We can get Halloween out of there. Well, because we

149
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 2: replaced that's all folks. Yeah, you want me to put

150
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 2: it on the Halloween. Yeah, because we need to have

151
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 2: brilliant there. Well that's wrong, sorry, that was brilliant TENN

152
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 2: and B.

153
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 5: We have to do better on first and second because

154
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 5: if you do better on first and second down, then

155
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 5: you won't have third night.

156
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 2: And then my question would be, well, how do you

157
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 2: do better on third? I would say, what do you

158
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 2: do differently?

159
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 5: Well, I would say, uh, block, open up some holes

160
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 5: and hopefully you're running back and hit him and gain

161
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 5: some yardage, get some chunk yards so you have shorter

162
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 5: downs or have your quarterback complete some passes. That would

163
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 5: be the way to do it. Easier said than done, though,

164
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 5: but we'll see how that that works out. I'm also

165
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 5: going to ask Rosan again. So so far we've established

166
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,199
Speaker 5: he would not trade at for Wembin Yama in a

167
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 5: million years, he would not trade and for chet Holmgren.

168
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,479
Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw out another.

169
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 5: Nate today and see if he would make a trade,

170
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 5: because there was another There were a couple of scintillating

171
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 5: performances last night in the in the in the did

172
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 5: you I watched.

173
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not paying a schoost attention to the

174
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: NBA as it once did.

175
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 4: Now, the.

176
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 5: The Warriors were brilliant last night after after getting after

177
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:20,599
Speaker 5: getting run rough shot. Uh what is it? Thunder the

178
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 5: thunder ran rough shot over him the other night, right,

179
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 5: And that's where Butler said, well, you know, we just

180
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 5: got to try to play. If you're not trying on defense,

181
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 5: you can't play defense. They played wemb Yama last night.

182
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 5: There's a there's a clip of wemban Yama and they lost,

183
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 5: by the way. The Gold State Warriors won and Steph

184
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 5: went off for fifty five?

185
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 4: Was that right?

186
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: Did I see that right?

187
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 5: Did he go off for fifty five close to that

188
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 5: or maybe it was forty five? And he had five

189
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 5: assists and five five boards too. He was just spectacular.

190
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 5: But they show a clip where they're trying to get

191
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 5: around wemban Yama and he just so Steph tries to

192
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 5: move around him and you know, dribble through the lights.

193
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,599
Speaker 2: He can't get pasted him, so he has to go

194
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 2: back out. They passed. Then women they get the ball

195
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 2: to somebody women Yama.

196
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 5: Is he again he's still early in his career. Things

197
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 5: can change in a hurry. But wow, he just changes

198
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 5: everything in a basketball court.

199
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 2: Everything.

200
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 5: He gets a triple double print near every night, and

201
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 5: he at seven five, he protects the rim, and he

202
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 5: runs the floor like a point guard.

203
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 2: And he's still growing. And he's still growing. That's exactly right.

204
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: He's still getting bigger.

205
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 5: So but we'll bounce head off Rose And also today

00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: No one will get up to watch that. Well, then.

216
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 6: People that have devon chen on their fantasy football maybe

217
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:16,559
Speaker 6: other than that.

218
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 2: Other than that, I guess that's that would probably be it.

219
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 5: I've got some other Viking insights for it tenemy, and

220
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 5: not just that. The Vikings need to do better. They

221
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 5: need to have third and threes more than third.

222
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,199
Speaker 2: Nates I do like that.

223
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 5: I'm going to use that today with Rosen unless he

224
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 5: beats me to it, because he was probably listening earlier

225
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 5: today with Lieber.

226
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 6: And on the defense, they want to force more third

227
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 6: nates than third and threes. That's my defensive analysis for

228
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 6: at the game brilliant.

229
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:44,280

262
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 5: She writes Fish Repaftory west Side. She's one of the

263
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 5: Viking writers talking about JJ McCarthy and the soon to

264
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 5: be Big Game World champion Minnesota Vikings.

265
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 2: And start number just start number five for our young quarterback.

266
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 2: I believe this has start. He's either five or six right.

267
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 2: He starts to Chicago Atlanta and then Detroit, Baltimore.

268
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,839
Speaker 5: Okay, so this is start number five, and there was

269
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 5: a quote and we had it on the radio because

270
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 5: it was from the head coach of the soon to

271
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 5: be Big Game World champion Minnesota Vikings, Kevin O'Connell, during

272
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 5: his midweek news conference we're in talking about McCarthy and

273
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 5: his his progression as a quarterback. He says, sometimes when

274
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 5: a guy's making his third or fourth or fifth start

275
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 5: now this week, it's a lot to ask in the

276
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 5: midst of games, especially how they've kind of played out,

277
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 5: but that.

278
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 2: Doesn't change the fact that we're in the business.

279
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 5: Of trying to go want to know this week And

280
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 5: then Emily says, this is what O'Connell said amid a

281
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 5: longer answer, much longer as we know, longer answer about

282
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 5: patients was starting a new young quarterback because you do

283
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 5: need to be patient. He says, there's been a lot

284
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 5: of encouraging things to go along with things we can

285
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 5: improve on.

286
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 2: He knows that we know that.

287
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 5: And then it says this week is won when the

288
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 5: Vikings could start to really make that consistency happen and

289
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 5: with McCarthy, and one of the reasons they feel that

290
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 5: way is because now they're McCarthy is playing a team

291
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 5: for the second time, and not just the second time,

292
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 5: you know, you know, like he played it played against

293
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 5: some last season, is a second time this season because

294
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 5: we played Bears Lions, Packers twice. So he played the

295
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 5: Bears game, struggled the first three quarters, was exceptional in

296
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 5: quarter number four, and the Vikings won the game. So

297
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 5: I think they feel like as a matter of fact,

298
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 5: Aaron Jones, running back of the Vikings.

299
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 2: Says.

300
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 5: Matchup matchups with division rivals always come with a sense

301
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 5: of familiarity that could be advantageous.

302
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 2: Of course that goes the other way too, But I

303
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 2: think the Vikings are looking at this as this is

304
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 2: a the last thing she won. The last things she

305
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 2: writes is it's.

306
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 5: A pivotal point in the season, and a pivotal point

307
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 5: for McCarthy, who's well aware of the importance of consistency.

308
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 2: He knows that and this game can go back.

309
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 5: They watch film of week one, they see the things

310
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 5: that worked, what didn't work, bear tendencies, watch other film

311
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 5: of their most recent games, and then maybe that will

312
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 5: help him along. So I think the I think the

313
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 5: the quarterback himself and I I I think the team

314
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 5: as a whole is hoping to see some some progress

315
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 5: here this week. I can tell you one way they

316
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 5: could make some progress to stay out of third and

317
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 5: logs and make sure that you you know you're you're, you're,

318
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 5: you're on.

319
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: Third and shorts.

320
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 5: If you have third and three, it's a lot easier,

321
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 5: not only on a young quarterback, but even on a

322
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 5: young inexperienced quarterback, but a but a sage old veteran. Right,

323
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 5: the further the ball has to travel for a first time,

324
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 5: the better it is for the offense.

325
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 2: You can use that.

326
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 6: I think another key is when you get into the

327
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 6: red zone, escort touchdowns instead of field goals.

328
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 2: That's another that would that would be the Can I

329
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: give you some nine to noon esque positivity?

330
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 4: Sure?

331
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 6: Potentially, JJ McCarthy, Yes, we'd like to Game number one

332
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 6: against the Bears, Okay, he was healthy, had a brilliant

333
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 6: fourth quarter, they won the game. Game two against Atlanta,

334
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 6: he struggled mightily, but we also found out in that

335
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 6: game that he played like a good chunk of that

336
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 6: game with the bum ankle. So bad game not healthy.

337
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 6: He comes back from the injury. He's healthy. Against Detroit,

338
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 6: played a pretty good game against the Lions, did he not?

339
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 6: Game four against Baltimore did not play well, but we

340
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 6: find out he hit his hand on a helmet at

341
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 6: some point. So the two worst of the four games

342
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 6: he's played, he was injured in the game. His two

343
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 6: healthiest games now the Chicago game. He was not brilliant

344
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 6: the whole time. But it's also first ever NFL start.

345
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 6: So there's me trying to give some excuses for JJ McCarthy.

346
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 5: Well, here, let me let me throw a wet blanket

347
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 5: on that wet blanket Wednesday on a throw in the

348
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 5: towel Thursday, he's still hurt because they said the hand

349
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,400
Speaker 5: I think there was another.

350
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 2: Quote in that same story. Uh, give me a second.

351
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 6: If the hand is still hurt comes Sunday. I mean,

352
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 6: out of all the injuries, your quarterback is going to

353
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 6: play for that one. Seems like that's going to have

354
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 6: an effect on your ability to throw the ball. So

355
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 6: maybe Brozemer should.

356
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 2: Be playing, it, says somewhere here.

357
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 5: McCarthy was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, wearing a

358
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 5: bandage on his right throwing hand after hitting it on

359
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 5: the lineman's helmet against the Ravens.

360
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 2: I know I saw the quote somewhere. I think McCarthy

361
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 2: said something to the effect of it's probably going to

362
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 2: be there for a while too.

363
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 5: He's going to play with it like that, So in

364
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 5: other words, it's going to be a slow healing thing

365
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 5: that's going to be swelled up.

366
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 2: I know I saw that in one of the stories.

367
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 2: I guess wasn't in that one. So we'll see if that,

368
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 2: you know, if that is indeed uh an issue in

369
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 2: the game. But yeah, I think.

370
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 5: I think O'Connell. You know, what he said here in

371
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 5: that quote is he says, hold on, can you give

372
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 5: me the thank you?

373
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 4: Oh?

374
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, here, I like he said.

375
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 5: Coach Kevin O'Connell said, it's not expected would affect McCarthy's

376
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 5: prep the injury very much at all an assessment of

377
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,479
Speaker 5: the quarterback read it, though, we did say he's going

378
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 5: to be.

379
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 2: Feeling it the rest of the way. So it is

380
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 2: the throwing hand, so that doesn't that doesn't really bode well.

381
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 5: But what the coach said, and we looked at this quote,

382
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 5: he says, sometimes when a guy's making his third or

383
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 5: fourth or fifth start now this week, it's a lot

384
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 5: to ask in the midst of games, especially how they've

385
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 5: kind of played out, but that doesn't change the fact that.

386
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,959
Speaker 2: We're in the business of trying to get to one

387
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 2: to zero this week. In other words, it's.

388
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 5: It's it's not the most ideal situation to be in

389
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 5: because you are a team that is trying to win

390
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 5: games and contend and get yourself back into the NFC

391
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 5: North race.

392
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 2: And try to qualify for the playoffs.

393
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 5: Yet you're doing it while you're spoon feeding a young

394
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 5: quarterback that's learning as he goes. There was quotes from

395
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 5: last week, I think, or immediately following the game from

396
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 5: McCarthy where he was talking about, yeah, I learned something

397
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,479
Speaker 5: here that I didn't know before, and and so as

398
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,119
Speaker 5: he's learning as he goes that when you're when.

399
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:52,400
Speaker 2: It's it's it's.

400
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 5: Difficult to excel and that consistency that they're looking for,

401
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 5: it's it's difficult to be considered when you have your vector.

402
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 5: He knows this is this is like you know, I'm

403
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 5: gonna this is sort of like on the same vein

404
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 5: as stay at a third and long and have third

405
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 5: and short. The more experience your quarterback has, the better way.

406
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 5: I talked the other day about I watched the Dan Campbell.

407
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 2: Midday.

408
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 5: They all do a Wednesday press conference and they were

409
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 5: asking about golf.

410
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 2: He says, this is the best you've seen golf play.

411
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 5: He goes, golf gets better every day and he sees

412
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 5: everything he's played so long now there's nothing that he

413
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 5: hasn't seen before he goes. We gave him a game plan,

414
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 5: he glanced that and he's out there running in the

415
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 5: first practice. Is because those veteran quarterbacks are so comfortable

416
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 5: with being out there right They they they they just

417
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 5: it's it's just second nature to them what they do

418
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 5: out there on the field, and that's going to be

419
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 5: the So the Vikings are in that that place where

420
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 5: you're probably now you're hoping he learns quickly and gets

421
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 5: consistent quickly. But my guess against the Bears will probably

422
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 5: see what we've seen so far. We'll see some nice

423
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 5: moments from McCarthy, but we'll also see some moments that'll

424
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 5: make you kind of want to cringe a little bit, right,

425
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 5: But that's the way it is when you're breaking in

426

451
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 5: on it says, can you please reload yesterday's show? About

452
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 5: half of it's missing from the podcast. Oh iHeartRadio app.

453
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 5: I would just suggest listen to the rest of this

454
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 5: show because you'll hear pretty much the same thing today

455
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 5: as you would have yes yesterday. We don't change it

456
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 5: up too often. Here's something else I want to add

457
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 5: to to meat. You know how you can really avoid

458
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 5: having third and long or even third and short. Pick

459
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 5: up first downs on either first or second down. Don't

460
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 5: even go to third. I never thought about that. Yeah,

461
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 5: don't even just just gain so many large chunks of

462
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 5: yardage that you don't need to even get to a

463
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 5: third well the entire game, never have any third and whatever.

464
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 5: Just a first and ten and get twelve yards, then

465
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 5: have a then on the next one get eight yards

466
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 5: and have a second and two and then gain a

467
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 5: first down there and never get the third down.

468
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 6: I will also say, so it was Leeber who said

469
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 6: you'd rather have third and threes than third and eight. Yes,

470
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 6: you know how many third and ones and third and

471
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 6: twos The Vikings had less game that they just bungled

472
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 6: and they never ran the ball, and they're throwing receptions,

473
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 6: But it's all gonna change because Kaos is a quarterback whisper.

474
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 2: He's gonna get the JJ McCarthy this week. Well a

475
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: McCarthy is now he's played the bear.

476
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 5: So they're going to study the film and they're going

477
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 5: to know exactly what They're gonna know exactly.

478
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 4: What to do.

479
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 5: Someone else, a couple of others before we move on

480
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 5: to another topic that I found on a website that

481
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 5: I'm not sure if you're familiar with.

482
00:24:55,840 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 2: You, It says, how long do we have to wait

483
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 2: for mccarth? Did you get up to speed? It's football.

484
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 2: He's been playing his whole life.

485
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 5: He had all of last year to watch him get

486
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 5: immersed in the offense, and he still can't figure out

487
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 5: pre snap cadence. That's sort of kind of what I've

488
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 5: been saying a little bit here. As we go along,

489
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 5: you know, everybody learns and develops at a different speed.

490
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 2: I've always thought it's just it's throwing.

491
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 5: Run and tackling, passing, blocking, kicking, you know, the whole thing.

492
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 5: But it's probably a bit more complex than that. And

493
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:30,919
Speaker 5: you do have to give him some time and we'll

494
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 5: see how that ghost you're familiar I don't know if

495
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 5: you are. Have you ever heard of the athletic The

496
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 5: what athletic? I have a prescription to it. It's an

Speaker 5: Here's the headline of the story, Tenna be can a

510
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 5: jersey number give a player a psychological edge? Now, if

511
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 5: you remember last year four, who was our running back

512
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 5: that changed number four?

513
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: And he said everything was different?

514
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 5: Dalvin Cook said, I'm changing at number four and everything's

515
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 5: going to be different.

516
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 2: Well, wasn't it any different? Matter fan of anything?

517
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 5: Dalvin regressed and he was toward He's not in the

518
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 5: league anymore. Now right, he can't be I don't think

519
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 5: is he. Do you know Dalvin Cook is in the

520
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 5: league anymore? So the change number didn't really work for Delvin.

521
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 5: He thought it was going to electrify his career.

522
00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 2: I think it was this training camp.

523
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 6: Laster's training camper Alec Lewis said, players look faster.

524
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 5: That's that's it's part of this story. Are you familiar

525
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 5: with somebody named bear Bachmeyer. No, bear Bachmeyer is a

526
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 5: true freshman starting quarterback.

527
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 2: For b YU.

528
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 5: He's had a very good year. It says, you're familiar

529
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 5: with Bobby Boucher. It was a character in an Adam

530
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 5: samde Bobby Is that what is? I've never watched missed

531
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 5: a great Yeah, I missed it. A bad break for me.

532
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 5: I'm sure Bouche is what it is. Phenomenal, tackling, phenomenal.

533
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 5: So apparently.

534
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 2: Bear bach.

535
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 5: Went to an Adam Sandlers show and brought him a jersey.

536
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 5: You know that the character wore in the movie to

537
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 5: get it autographed. Right, This Bochmeyer character believes in the

538
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,479
Speaker 5: jersey thing, it says. Traditionally, quarterbacks and Football of War

539
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 5: numbers one through nineteen, a system initially designed to help

540
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 5: officials identify the most important player on the field. In

541
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 5: the NFL, quarterbacks are still required to wear a number

542
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 5: in that range, but in college there are no such restrictions,

543
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 5: and so Bachmeyers opted for something a bit different. Number

544
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 5: forty seven is his number, a jersey number long reserve

545
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 5: for fullbacks and middle linebackers. Of the one hundred and

546
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 5: sixty three FBS quarterbacks who have played one hundred and

547
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 5: fifty snaps this season, Bachmeyer is the only one to

548
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 5: wear a number above nineteen. I think somebody had to

549
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 5: do the research for that to find out. Of the

550
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 5: one hundred and sixty three FBS quarterbacks who have played

551
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 5: one herd fifty steps of the season, he's the only

552
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 5: one to wear a number above nineteen.

553
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 2: He's got some good numbers. Tenn Toby.

554
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 5: He's been a revelation for undefeated BYU this season? Or

555
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 5: did they finally lose? I saved the story from a

556
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 5: day or two they finally lost? I thought they lost,

557
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 5: but anyway, six two to twenty five, he's been efficient.

558
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 2: Throwing for six to Texas Tech. Twenty nine to seven,

559
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 2: he's been.

560
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 5: Efficient throwing for sixteen hundred ninety three yards along with

561
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 5: eleven tuddies and three ins. It's when he tucks the

562
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 5: ball into his elbow and takes off because he runs

563
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 5: with a football well, and it says he feels the most,

564
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 5: like forty seven. He says, when I put that on,

565
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 5: it's a reminder of family and trying to make them proud.

566
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 5: I'm playing quarterback and having that uniqueness. It is the

567
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 5: epitome of toughness. It's a fine line, but it makes

568
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 5: me want to run somebody over. I think it brings

569
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 5: me back to the that primitive nature, almost like an

570
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 5: alter eagle thing, kind of nine with like nine hands.

571
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 2: Because the deal is his dad wanted him to wear

572
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 2: a different number. That's where the story goes. But here's

573
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 2: what it says.

574
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 5: A UCLA study found that smaller jersey numbers led people

575
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 5: to perceive players as slimmer. ESPN's Kevin Seffert talked to

576
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 5: NFL receivers who wore jersey numbers in the single digits

577
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 5: and teens. Many said they felt faster in a smaller number.

578
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 5: Jersey numbers can be integral to a player's identity. Veteran

579
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 5: athletes on new teams have paid tens of thousands of

580
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 5: dollars to reclaim a number occupied by one of their teammates.

581
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 5: Former NFL running back Chris Thompson put it this way

582
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 5: when talking to The Washington Post. I'm all about you

583
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 5: look good, you feel good, you feel good, you play good.

584
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 5: I'm all about that. I know it ain't all about that,

585
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 5: but that's what I'm believing in my mind. And then

586
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 5: the next paragraph is a question could a player find

587
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 5: a psychological age caliber small and worry a number that

588
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 5: signifies something to them. Doctor Chris Stanovich is a sports

589
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 5: psychologist tend to Be who has worked with youth, collegiate,

590
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 5: and pro athletes.

591
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 2: Here's what he says.

592
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 5: As humans, we really like having control of our lives,

593
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 5: control of our surroundings, and part of that control is

594
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 5: controlling your own identity.

595
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 2: As an athlete. You think that's who I am.

596
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 5: I am that number and the number for many athletes

597
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 5: provides comfort and confidence.

598
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 2: Every little edge helps.

599
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 5: It might not be a big deal to six or

600
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 5: seven year olds to use this, I would just say

601
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 5: six seven excels. But in high school, college and pros,

602
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 5: if you can get a jump about feeling good with

603
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 5: your own identity with this number on your back, wouldn't

604
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 5: you do it?

605
00:31:55,720 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 2: My gosh? And I guess I don't know if you're.

606
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 5: Familiar with a song by by Joe South, but it's

607
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 5: oh the games people play now every night and every

608
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 5: day now, And I guess with with with John Lennon

609
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 5: did a song called Mine Games. If you are convinced

610
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 5: in your head that it will work, I guess there's

611
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 5: something to it. I but you know, for every guy

612
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 5: that thinks the uniform number is going to change how

613
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 5: he performs, and maybe he does perform better with it,

614
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 5: there's the Dalvin Cooks of the world, because if you remember,

615
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 5: Dalvin changed numbers and said he was going to be

616
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 5: better because of it, and he wasn't any better, you know.

617
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 2: I mean, it's like.

618
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 5: It's I guess I could even take this to let's

619
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 5: let's talk about McCarthy again. You know his alter ego

620
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 5: is nine. Now. I suppose if he was number six,

621
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 5: his alter ego would be six, right, So I guess

622
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 5: it's any way you can try to gain an edge.

623
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 2: And if you think it's by the jersey number you wear,

624
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 2: well there's that. I'll tell you.

625
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 5: The only experience I've had with the jersey number this

626
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 5: was back at Coon Rapids Junior High School.

627
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: I think I've told you this before.

628
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 5: When I played Coon Rapis Athletic Association football fourth, fifth

629
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 5: and sixth grade, I played both sides of the ball.

630
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 5: I was a fierce pass rushing rock at Gibraltar, run

631
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 5: stopping defensive lineman and a precise route running, sure headed

632
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 5: pass catching tight end when I got to Junior High

633
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 5: and the reason I played on the line and played

634
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 5: tight end was I think they still do this. I'm

635
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 5: not sure if this still does, but in grade school football,

636
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 5: they separated by weight class. Right, seventy five pounds or less,

637
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 5: you played lightweights. Over seventy five pounds you played heavyweights.

638
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 5: I was like seventy four seventy five pounds. I was

639
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 5: on the high end of the lightweights. So of course

640
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 5: I'm one of the bigger kids on the lightweight So

641
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 5: I'm playing offensive line and tight end and a little

642
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 5: our defensive line. Tight end and some offensive line. When

643
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 5: I got into that, I did that for three years, four,

644
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 5: fifth and sixth grade. When I got to junior high,

645
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 5: they throw that out the window. Seventy five year old

646
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 5: kids play with two hundred pound kids. Doesn't matter what

647
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 5: your weight is well. So then when I went for tryouts,

648
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 5: they asked what position I plan and go, I'm a

649
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 5: fairs pass, rashing rackets around the run, stopping defense alignment, precisely,

650
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 5: not anymore. You're not You're not big enough, not gonna work.

651
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 5: You're going to be defensive back. I had no training

652
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 5: in defensive back, and I was I was.

653
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 2: Overwhelmed. I was overwhelmed. H I looked a lot like

654
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 2: some of the Well put it this way. When I

655
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 2: was a defensive back, I looked like a chair. That's

656
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 2: what I look like. You know how they use chairs

657
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,839
Speaker 2: when they're practicing zones and stuff. I was a chair.

658
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 2: You weren't used to backpedaling. I wasn't used. That's exactly right.

659
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 2: And so I also learned. And I've talked about this

660
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 2: before too.

661
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 5: I was smart enough to figure out, well, now I'm

662
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 5: basically nothing but a tackling dummy and a blocking sled

663
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 5: for the for the starters, right, they need to practice

664
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 5: against somebody. So I'm getting all beat up, and I

665
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 5: got smart and I said I'm out, I'm done. I'm

666
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:18,279
Speaker 5: retiring from football after seventh grade. You you probably won't

667
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 5: find the surprise. And I was very popular with my

668
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 5: my my fellow teammates and my fellow students, and they

669
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 5: so badly wanted me to be part of the team.

670
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,840
Speaker 2: They wanted me to be manager guy. You know, the manager,

671
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 2: the guy.

672
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 5: The dorky looking guy with the you know, with with

673
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,720
Speaker 5: the stats, yeah, and you know, carrying the models, carrying

674
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 5: the little little toolbox with with with with with with

675
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 5: with with the tape in it.

676
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

677
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:45,320
Speaker 5: Well I was humbled by it, which is which is

678
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 5: which is hard to do, And so I said, okay,

679
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 5: I'll do that. I'll hang out with you guys. So

680
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,839
Speaker 5: I was manager in eighth grade. When it came time

681
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 5: to pass out the uniforms, I got the first choice.

682
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 2: Which one do you think? I took number one?

683
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 5: All the numbers were there, one, two, all the way

684
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 5: through whatever, ninety nine, whatever it was. And so I

685
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 5: did select a number because I felt like, by gosh.

686
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 2: I'm number one. I turned into Delvin Cook. It didn't

687
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 2: help at all. I was number one. So, in other words,

688
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 2: I had the choice.

689
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 5: Of my number and I wanted I thought it was

690
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 5: cool to be the number one, you know, beat number one,

691
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:22,360
Speaker 5: think big and be.

692
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 2: Big, and it it didn't work for me. It doesn't

693
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 2: mean it doesn't work for somebody else.

694
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 6: Well, I was gonna say, like, let's take this a

695
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 6: step further to people with longer last names feel slower

696
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 6: than people with shorter last names because it doesn't take

697
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:42,720
Speaker 6: it as much space on the jersey. And Tom Brady's

698
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 6: one of the greatest of all time, just only five

699
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 6: letters in that last name.

700
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 5: Well, Simmon Woods Richardson. Have you ever seen his name

701
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 5: in the back of his jersey? It said Woods Richardson.

702
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 5: It starts from his elbow.

703
00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 2: It's like a rainbow. Yeah, and it goes all the

704
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 2: way up and down to the other elbow.

705
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 4: Yeah. I you know, I am.

706
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 2: Feel like too many words have been written on this topic. Yeah, well,

707
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 2: but I I it's do you believe in any of it?

708
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess you know.

709
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 5: I've told the tale about mind over matter, doing a lucinogenics,

710
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 5: getting inside of a inside of a of a asana

711
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 5: and not sweating because I convinced myself I wasn't hot.

712
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: Now it was because of a whole multicolor galaxy of.

713
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 5: Represent our descrivers and laughers. But the mind is a

714
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 5: powerful thing. You can convince yourself. So if you wear

715
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 5: a number like I think I've asked you before when

716
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 5: you played hockey, did you have a number that you

717
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 5: wanted to have and requested and wore most of.

718
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 2: The time or not?

719
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 6: I mean it's changed every year. Oh okay, but I

720
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 6: landed on number twenty, okay in high school and you

721
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 6: liked number twenty? Was there any reordy just that was

722
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 6: the one they gave you and you just said it.

723
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 6: Thinklosopher was growing up playing you hockey, you were only

724
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 6: going to get like one through seventeen. You never had

725
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 6: choices past seventeen. So once you got to high school

726
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 6: a sudden the amount of jerseys you could choose from increased.

727
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 6: And I guess I just like even numbers better than

728
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 6: nod numbers. And I was a left handed defenceman at

729
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 6: the time. My Crawley was one of my favorite players.

730
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,320
Speaker 6: He was a defenseman for the Gophers. Our game is

731
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 6: very comparable. Yeah, with a lot of people looked at

732
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,919
Speaker 6: me and thought, man, that's my Crawley out there. I thought, yeah,

733
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 6: he was number twenty for the Gophers. So that's why

734
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 6: you chose twenty. Yeah, do you feel you played better

735
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 6: wearing number twenty? I can't even see the number on

736
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 6: my jersey, say it's behind me.

737
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 5: So yeah, so again I you know, but this kid

738
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 5: for by you basically says the reason I play at

739
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 5: the level I play at because I'm wearing well so

740
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 5: his is the wider number.

741
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 6: Yes, So it is the argument there that the other

742
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 6: the opposing team thinks he looks slower and then he

743
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 6: just runs right past them.

744
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 5: Well, I think when he runs the ball he feels

745
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 5: like he's a bruiser, because that's what he said here.

746
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 5: He said, when I put that on as a reminder

747
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 5: of family and trying to make them proud, I'm playing

748
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 5: quarterback and having that uniqueness is the epitome of toughness

749
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 5: because that's supposed to be Forty seven is like a

750
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 5: linebacker number, right, so it makes him tough.

751
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 2: Here's what it said about his old man. It says.

752
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 5: Bear didn't choose forty seven himself. It was selected by

753
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 5: his father. Michael. Bear was five playing linebacker and running

754
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 5: back for the Rancho Panthers growing up in Marietta, California.

755
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 2: Michael, his dad, a former officer in the United States.

756
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 5: Marine Corps, chose the number for Bear because he felt

757
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 5: and represented toughness.

758
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:47,320
Speaker 2: I think he's overthinking another.

759
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 5: Growing up, Michael always admired fullbacks and linebackers. Back then,

760
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 5: stars of those positions weren't allowed to wear the numbers

761
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 5: from one through nineteen like quarterbacks. They were anywhere from

762
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 5: twenty to five five. But why precisely forty seven? Here's

763
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,399
Speaker 5: a bear set. I'm not entirely sure my dad really

764
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 5: likes those thirties, forties and fifties numbers.

765
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 2: He's stuck with it. He played quarterback growing up, but

766
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 2: he wanted me to be gritty and tough. Whatever works.

767
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 5: The kids playing Division one football, and he's playing at

768
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 5: a pretty good level, and he's playing for a pretty

769
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:25,439
Speaker 5: good team.

770
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 4: But I don't know.

771
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 6: I I've never looked at the number on my jersey

772
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 6: as I'm putting it on before a sporting him meant

773
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 6: to go, oh this is this is going to pump

774
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 6: me up? This number right here? Well, I'm motivated to play.

775
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,399
Speaker 2: What else has said in this story? And I could

776
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 2: look for but I don't need it.

777
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 5: If it was one of the psychologists guys might have

778
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 5: been the same one and saying like if he said

779
00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:00,919
Speaker 5: he noticed that a class, he'll ask have a favorite number,

780
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 5: and almost everybody puts up.

781
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,239
Speaker 6: Their hand, like, do you have a favorite number? I mean,

782
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 6: twenty has turned into it just because that's the one

783
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,760
Speaker 6: I had for the longest time. Mine was either thirteen

784
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 6: or fourteen, and now it's six seven. The mind's changed

785
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 6: over the years. It was thirteen, fourteen, then it was

786
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 6: six seven. I don't really have a favorite number.

787
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 5: I think some people do. Dude, you have a favorite color.

788
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 5: Some people have a favorite color. You don't have a

789
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,720
Speaker 5: favorite color, not necessarily, No, I don't think I I'm interesting.

790
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 6: That's interest because they always say, like, your favorite color

791
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,319
Speaker 6: has some sort of deep meaning as to what your

792
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 6: personality is like.

793
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 2: Well, then why I'm dark and brooding? So I do

794
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 2: like black? What about Honolulu blue? Is that favorite color?

795
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 6: Well?

796
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 2: You know, well silver, all right? Now, I like it

797
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,720
Speaker 2: a lot. I didn't like it growing up during the sixties,

798
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 2: seventies and eighties. I did like hot. I did like it.

799
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,720
Speaker 5: I didn't like Honolulu blue because it represented losing honuhl

800
00:41:54,719 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 5: louse lose blue is really basically what it was. The

801
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 5: number twenty is a very special number, now, a very

802
00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 5: special number. That's how many years Common and Ten have

803
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 5: been doing the show. Congrats on twenty years. If no

804
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 5: one said that to you yet, I'm going to say

805
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 5: it to you now, So there you go. So anyways,

806
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 5: good luck to number forty seven with BYU. And they

807
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,400
Speaker 5: do not allow anybody to wear any number. Well, it

808
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,799
Speaker 5: says in the NFL they still won't. It's still zero

809
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 5: through nineteen.

810
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 6: They've relaxed on some of the number later, right, like

811
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,240
Speaker 6: wide receivers are wearing single digits and teens now.

812
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 2: Well, Jamiirs Gibbs were zero from kiddies, but yeah, they

813
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 2: used to.

814
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 4: It used to be.

815
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 2: It had to be. I think running backs had to

816
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 2: be like in the thirties. Full backs were in the forties.

817
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 5: Right, linebackers were fifties, sixties then seventies were linemen. But

818
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 5: I think you can pretty much use any number you want,

819
00:42:58,600 --> 00:42:59,919
Speaker 5: which only makes sense, I guess.

820
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 2: But here's one.

821
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,479
Speaker 5: Comments there a specific golf ball number that you prefer

822
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 5: to play. I know I've never though. Generally when you

823
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,839
Speaker 5: buy a dozen golf balls, they are number one through four.

824
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 5: Generally you'll find some boxes five through eight.

825
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 2: Right, you ever gad the.

826
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,480
Speaker 5: Custom ones and then you can have the custom ones,

827
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 5: you can you can order your own.

828
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 2: I've never felt the need to do that personally.

829
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 6: But I did it once because I think there was

830
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,919
Speaker 6: like a special or so I had twenty on them. Yeah,

831
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:37,919
Speaker 6: had twenty in the woods it's mine.

832
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 2: Yes, there's probably plenty of those two.

833
00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, well I had one time Dark Starred made golf

834
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 5: balls for me, they said, common man on him. I

835
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 5: want to check my mailbox one time, and one of

836
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,800
Speaker 5: my golf balls was in the mailbox. So somebody found

837
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,919
Speaker 5: my golf ball that I'd lost in the golf course

838
00:43:54,000 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 5: and knew where I lived in my mailbox. I'm still

839
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 5: here to talk about it. So well, I mean you've

840
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 5: told him your addresses thirteen fourteen insane Lane.

841
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 2: Well, that is correct, you're absolutely true. Let's take a

842
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,399
Speaker 2: break come back. So this is what we have left
