Speaker 8: Monday, November twenty fourth of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3: At least we have a good hockey team.
Speaker 8: But yeah, that was bad twenty three to six to
Speaker 8: the Green Bay Packers and saw. Seventeen hours ago you
Speaker 8: tweeted a picture of Christian Ponder.
Speaker 3: I mean that might be an insult at this point through.
Speaker 8: Sixteen hours ago you tweeted, it's over. Yeah, I stand
Speaker 8: by that was that. The game, was that, the season,
Speaker 8: was that McCarthy's career.
Speaker 3: What is that?
Speaker 8: Was it?
Speaker 3: The universe? Just a time?
Speaker 5: It's time over.
Speaker 8: I think it's a little bit of ABCD and E.
Speaker 5: That's a long way down the alphabet.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Fifteen hours ago you tweeted what period a period, efinge
Speaker 8: period clown show.
Speaker 9: I was watching Welcome to Dreary.
Speaker 3: That's not a thing, isn't it? No deary, no dirry, Wow,
Speaker 3: slurry murray. Let's not get slurry just because you don't
Speaker 3: know the name of the town.
Speaker 9: No, it was after the guy dropped the bar back
Speaker 9: on Twitter.
Speaker 5: Got slurry last night?
Speaker 3: Yeah, people did. Yeah, I bet they did.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they sure did.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that wasn't good.
Speaker 8: H Fifteen hours ago you tweeted twenty one weeks to
Speaker 8: the NFL Draft, top ten pick, here we come.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I stand by that. Yeah.
Speaker 8: Fifteen hours ago you tweeted throw the bleeping ball, throw
Speaker 8: the damn tiele?
Speaker 3: Yeah that was uh after I uh the play to C. J.
Speaker 3: Hammond Aaron Jones couldn't be completed? Do you feel blame?
Speaker 5: Are you mad?
Speaker 1: Do you feel like Wolfsbob fantage furtish book?
Speaker 5: Keep googled a get up. As you can tell, it
Speaker 5: was a weird press conference.
Speaker 3: Who which is? Oh?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Fifteen hours ago you tweeted down fourteen and running the ball?
Speaker 8: Is this the KOC prevent offense? Patrick Roycey? Yeah, I
Speaker 8: mean that was I think that's about all we could
Speaker 8: do it, though.
Speaker 5: What'd you want him to do in the game?
Speaker 11: I mean, I love that well, I mean the kids
Speaker 11: out there trying to slugging R Trician Potter probably here,
Speaker 11: I mean here has lots of Hey.
Speaker 8: Right after that, you posted a picture of fifteen hours
Speaker 8: ago of some random quarterback.
Speaker 3: Who's that one? That's JP? That's J. P. Losman.
Speaker 5: I wasn't sure who that was. That's a deep cut.
Speaker 3: That is a deep cut.
Speaker 8: Well, I'm like, I know that face, but I would
Speaker 8: have never remembered the name JP, Like, how do I
Speaker 8: know this guy?
Speaker 3: How do I figure out who this is? Yeah, that's JP.
Speaker 5: It's a flattering picture of him.
Speaker 3: No, just next it looks like he's point two.
Speaker 5: It looks like that.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it looks like he was standing there and they
Speaker 9: were like, hey, by the way, today's team pictures.
Speaker 3: He's like, well, I went out till six morning last.
Speaker 5: It looks like the lady said, Tom stands down where
Speaker 5: you play?
Speaker 8: That sas fifteen hours ago, you retweeted a John Kreesel tweet.
Speaker 8: Criesel tweeted drafting has been a disaster under crazy a DOPAMENSA.
Speaker 8: Multiple years of missus left the Vikings with an old,
Speaker 8: overpaid roster and zero depth. That's the biggest problem. Yet
Speaker 8: he got an extension this offseason.
Speaker 9: I mean, I think I think John Kriesel speaks for
Speaker 9: a lot of us. I mean, I think you have
Speaker 9: an issue now where you have an overpriced roster that
Speaker 9: you're supposed to have all the flexibility you can.
Speaker 3: But they thought, and rightfully so.
Speaker 9: After last year that they had a pro they had
Speaker 9: a super Bowl team, and they thought the quarterback was ready,
Speaker 9: and I don't. After six games, I don't think he is.
Speaker 9: So now, not only do you not have the quarterback solved,
Speaker 9: you have an old, overpriced.
Speaker 8: Roster which you can change pretty quickly. Of course, it's
Speaker 8: become so many as I think all of them. Yeah,
Speaker 8: so I mentioned fifteen hours you tweeted a picture of
Speaker 8: a quarterback who I wasn't exactly sure who it was.
Speaker 8: It ended up being JP Lowsman. Yeah, it was fifteen
Speaker 8: hours ago. Fourteen hours ago you tweeted the same picture again.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Uh, fifteen hours ago you tweeted a retweeted a Brandon
Speaker 8: Maleski tweet. I know McCarthy is young and inexperienced, but
Speaker 8: he's getting worse every game. True, I'm not wrong, he's
Speaker 8: not wrong. I feel protected when Tenn and I have
Speaker 8: the same thoughts. Yeah, it's not good. Doesn't mean he's
Speaker 8: a bad guy.
Speaker 3: It's just not good.
Speaker 5: I know what you're thinking.
Speaker 3: You can't have four yards in the second half.
Speaker 5: You're thinking you wish we had Shader Sanders, that's what
Speaker 5: you're thinking.
Speaker 3: I mean, he was good against a really really really
Speaker 3: bad team.
Speaker 9: I mean, no, they could have drafted him, but they thought,
Speaker 9: like a lot of us did, and rightfully so thought
Speaker 9: JJ McCarthy was the guy and they didn't need anybody else.
Speaker 5: What's going on do you think with me?
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 5: If enough time, no, no, no.
Speaker 8: This is gonna be an interesting uh like post mortem though,
Speaker 8: like if this thing goes really south, let's just say
Speaker 8: it just doesn't work out. And he's a giant bust
Speaker 8: spread and he's a super spreader. If we go back, now,
Speaker 8: if we go back and when when he got drafted
Speaker 8: by the Vikings and everybody said, well, the kid barely
Speaker 8: threw it in college, like well and then they you know,
Speaker 8: the comeback was well, they didn't really need to they
Speaker 8: were winning. They just handed the ball off. But he
Speaker 8: did really well when he was asked to throw it,
Speaker 8: but he didn't really throw it that much that it
Speaker 8: was probably a red flag that even though you're Michigan,
Speaker 8: even though you're winning the national championship, not throwing it much. Yeah,
Speaker 8: So the kid might be a quote winner, he might
Speaker 8: be a good leader. I think he has so many
Speaker 8: things that you want in your quarterback. The one thing
Speaker 8: that it looks like he doesn't have is the ability
Speaker 8: to throw the ball accurately.
Speaker 3: Here's go ahead.
Speaker 5: And that is the thing about it. If he just
Speaker 5: did what he did in Michigan, I'd be fine with that.
Speaker 5: Hand the ball off and then when we have an
Speaker 5: opportunity to throw a couple of short passes, do it. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you know, let go of the ball. But it just
Speaker 5: looks like, as the young Stephen King likes to say,
Speaker 5: he's forgotten the face of his father, he forgets, he's
Speaker 5: forgotten amidst all the other stuff that he now has
Speaker 5: to remember. He's forgotten. Oh, yeah, that's right, it's just football.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, the other thing Stephen King likes to say
Speaker 3: is welcome to Drury.
Speaker 5: He does say that, Yeah, he does. Well, he doesn't
Speaker 5: drink anymore.
Speaker 3: Oh that's good.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Sorry, I don't know the latest Stephen King show. Anybody
Speaker 3: that's watching it? Is it good?
Speaker 5: I haven't started yet. I'm gonna I'm gonna. I just
Speaker 5: I'm too wrapped up in football.
Speaker 8: Trailers look exactly like the movie. I mean, it's it's
Speaker 8: this identical.
Speaker 5: Orgy story, is what I've been told exactly.
Speaker 8: Yeah, Penny Wise gets into a gigantic orgy and yeah,
Speaker 8: and it's weird.
Speaker 3: Name of that town is whatever.
Speaker 5: You know, I can't watch it on a plane. If
Speaker 5: it's an orgy, sure he can. You know I can't
Speaker 5: watch clown orgies on planes anymore. That's the Viking specifically,
Speaker 5: I said, please stop doing that. It's walked out. Yeah,
Speaker 5: what did you watch last night? What I watched last night?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: I watched A Year without Santa Claus is the only
Speaker 5: thing that could make me feel good on that flight
Speaker 5: on the way home. You know, it's a it's a
Speaker 5: it's a short flight.
Speaker 3: It's called the Year without Santa Claus.
Speaker 5: Yeah you've seen it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you've seen it.
Speaker 1: I have not.
Speaker 3: It's one.
Speaker 5: I'm mister heat miser.
Speaker 8: Yeah, never saw it. It works here justin Meser. Yeah, nope,
Speaker 8: Year without Santa Claus. It's like a nice way of
Speaker 8: describing the Vikings draft every year for like the last
Speaker 8: four years.
Speaker 5: Wow, you are the guy who haunts me on Twitter,
Speaker 5: aren't you? You just use a bunch of different fake names.
Speaker 3: I wish I had a burner account. I don't.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I wish I had that guy's real name.
Speaker 3: What guy's real name?
Speaker 5: The guy who haunts me on Twitter and using a
Speaker 5: bunch of different addresses.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I have one of those. Yeah, how do you
Speaker 8: know it's just one guy. How do you know it's
Speaker 8: not multiple guys. I have my source, you have your sources.
Speaker 8: It's yeah, I have the same thing. It's the same thing,
Speaker 8: over and over and over again.
Speaker 3: Why don't you just block him?
Speaker 5: Then moving makes another account?
Speaker 3: Yeah, well then blockdown and move on. Block down and
Speaker 3: block down and move on. Yeah that's what I do.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Sorry, I didn't realize you had all the answers. What's
Speaker 5: wrong with J. J.
Speaker 3: McCarthy. Yeah, you can't throw the ball?
Speaker 5: Thank you.
Speaker 8: No, it is kind of fun when he throws it
Speaker 8: one thousand miles an hour and he airmails it.
Speaker 3: It is fun to see how far over the receiver
Speaker 3: it goes. That's a fun game.
Speaker 8: Yeah, whoa, it's like there it goes, and it's I wanted,
Speaker 8: like Chris Berman to go like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah man, that was you know what?
Speaker 8: So like again, of course, my dad, My dad was
Speaker 8: sending me a text yesterday like I don't think the
Speaker 8: kids got it, and I'm like, ah no, dad, uh.
Speaker 8: And my point to him when we were talking sports
Speaker 8: back and forth.
Speaker 3: On texts, which is fun.
Speaker 8: Yeah, It's kind of like we said before this season,
Speaker 8: if the thesis statement for the year is, what do
Speaker 8: we got?
Speaker 3: Do we have a quarterback?
Speaker 8: Whether the season goes really well or really bad, Let's
Speaker 8: just find out if this is the guy. Obviously so
Speaker 8: far right now, it does not look like that there's
Speaker 8: still some.
Speaker 3: Time to play.
Speaker 8: Quickly, I'm very very quickly giving up because it looks
Speaker 8: like it's going the wrong way. The thing that sucks
Speaker 8: the most, though, is is it's not like he's failing
Speaker 8: while it's not like the team is failing while he's
Speaker 8: doing the roller coaster. Yeah, and it's not like the
Speaker 8: games are entertaining and he's doing the roller coaster. Yesterday's
Speaker 8: game was boring as f because we had no life
Speaker 8: almost from the starts. We had a couple of nice
Speaker 8: runs right where Aaron Jones or Jordan Mason was doing something,
Speaker 8: but he's like McCarthy's so inaccurate, and the ViBe's just
Speaker 8: not there. It's like, I never felt like we were
Speaker 8: in that game, even though we were a miles price
Speaker 8: fumble away from staying close. After that, it was just
Speaker 8: you could tell the Packers were just like let's just
Speaker 8: play keep away. Yeah, McCarthy can't get the ball up
Speaker 8: and down the field anyway, So if we just run
Speaker 8: out the clock and put up a couple of field goals,
Speaker 8: maybe one more touchdown, they can't catch us anyway.
Speaker 5: Being very kinder, yes, if you were a college football game,
Speaker 5: could have run it up and they needed to, you know,
Speaker 5: get one spot higher in the rankings, they would have
Speaker 5: beaten us by a hunter.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's a bella Jack team.
Speaker 8: We lose by twenty game that game in real time,
Speaker 8: that game ended early.
Speaker 3: We just ran the clock.
Speaker 9: It was like when you get to like eighth grade
Speaker 9: teams and one of them as farst appearing, you're like, y,
Speaker 9: run the ball.
Speaker 3: That's exactly what they did.
Speaker 5: Makes me want to smoke.
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, Chris, you were obviously there, so you were
Speaker 8: listening to the radio broadcast. So I assume you were
Speaker 8: listening to the TV broadcast. Oh yeah, it was nuts
Speaker 8: the way, Greg Oles. What's the guy's named, Joe Davis, Yeah,
Speaker 8: Joe Davis.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 8: The first half of that game, obviously they leaned into
Speaker 8: the storyline is McCarthy's lack of progress. Right now, it's
Speaker 8: going the wrong way. But the way they were talking
Speaker 8: about him, it was it was kind of unbelievable. Like
Speaker 8: almost everything they were saying trying to dissect what's going
Speaker 8: wrong was well, I mean, look at his feet, they're
Speaker 8: kinda set, and he kind of does that like I mean,
Speaker 8: they made it sound like he had never thrown a
Speaker 8: football until six weeks ago.
Speaker 3: And he was kind of like an alien.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was like, so he can kind I mean,
Speaker 8: he throws it downfield and some people catch it. I
Speaker 8: mean it just I'm paraphrasing, but man, they made it
Speaker 8: sound like he was a beginner, beginner and he has
Speaker 8: a long way to go in terms of mechanics. Yeah,
Speaker 8: and when you're hearing Koc say things like we keep
Speaker 8: telling JJ, we just we got to see, you know,
Speaker 8: the cement start to dry, the concrete start to dry,
Speaker 8: or however he worded it, like we're teaching you all
Speaker 8: these things, but none of it's sinking in yet.
Speaker 3: Frustrate.
Speaker 5: It's like it's like if I move to France and
Speaker 5: started speaking French, I don't know how to do it.
Speaker 5: I can speak English, Okay, I'm pretty good at this,
Speaker 5: but then you move me to France and don't give
Speaker 5: me any lessons.
Speaker 8: Right, Yeah, and then in six weeks Joe Davis and
Speaker 8: Greg Olsen are like, well, the kid can say bon seore.
Speaker 5: Yeah, can't speak French? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Why is he here?
Speaker 5: Why do they keep trying to throw to teach him
Speaker 5: how to sing? He doesn't know how to speak yet?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Yeah, well said, yeah, all right, let's let's go around
Speaker 8: the room, let's vote. I have I have the question
Speaker 8: that I just don't think it's preposterous anymore. And I'm
Speaker 8: gonna be a hypocrite because I wanted this year to
Speaker 8: be essentially all JJ win or lose, but it's just
Speaker 8: going so badly.
Speaker 3: Who cares? Who would rather see Brozmer next week?
Speaker 12: God?
Speaker 5: I hate to be this guy. No, I hate to
Speaker 5: be this guy.
Speaker 3: Go on, I do, I do too, I hate to
Speaker 3: be that guy.
Speaker 5: I just want to see if there's anything I want
Speaker 5: to see, if I want to see if it is
Speaker 5: all JJ's fuss.
Speaker 8: Exactly, Honestly, that's totally That's exactly My take as well,
Speaker 8: is if Brosmer goes in there and is also struggling,
Speaker 8: then we could say, well, we don't know if Broemer
Speaker 8: sucks or maybe.
Speaker 3: Just the team just isn't hitting and clicking this year.
Speaker 8: But if he goes in there and does pretty well,
Speaker 8: even if he does like Carson Wentz well, which is
Speaker 8: solid but not you know, blowing the world away or
Speaker 8: sustains a drive, Yeah, then you might be like, well, god,
Speaker 8: if Brozmer can do it. Yeah. You know who made
Speaker 8: the point yesterday on the broadcast, I don't remember if
Speaker 8: it was Muss I don't know.
Speaker 3: Well, maybe I bet he does. He was listening.
Speaker 8: Somebody made the point on the broadcast yesterday that like
Speaker 8: or maybe he was even fan line. You know, Brosmer
Speaker 8: played in the Big Ten. He played against the same
Speaker 8: people as JJ McCarthy, did same kind of teams and
Speaker 8: did really well in college with It's not like he was.
Speaker 3: Playing you know, the Sisters of the Poor.
Speaker 8: Yeah, he played the Big Ten and looked pretty good
Speaker 8: at the University of Minnesota.
Speaker 5: So it's listen, PJ tried to sketch all the Sisters.
Speaker 3: Of Yeah correct.
Speaker 5: If he can play them every week, he would no bulletin.
Speaker 8: What if you played him at Fenway? Yeah, they probably Yeah,
Speaker 8: that game sucked too, That was real bad. Would you
Speaker 8: rather have Drake Lindsay or JJ McCarry.
Speaker 3: Lindsay was not the problem on Saturday.
Speaker 5: No, I didn't say it. Look at it. What was
Speaker 5: the problem?
Speaker 3: The defense was horrific.
Speaker 8: They let a quarterback who hasn't lit up anybody all
Speaker 8: year go fifteen for fifteen and light us up in
Speaker 8: the second half.
Speaker 9: Yeah, defense couldn't stop one hundred and tenth ranked offense
Speaker 9: in the country destroyed them.
Speaker 8: It was it was the full pendulum, right, because I
Speaker 8: think at one point they had out gained us something
Speaker 8: like two eighteen to eight, and we're dominating us, and
Speaker 8: then the script flipped yep, and Drake, Lindsay and Tracy
Speaker 8: put three touchdowns in and we just absolutely boat raced
Speaker 8: him for about thirty straight minutes and then it flipped
Speaker 8: the other way and we couldn't stop their quarterback.
Speaker 3: It's not good unless you play us.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't know, Like I wouldn't be mad if
Speaker 8: they flipped the Brosmer.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I for the people that are anti Brosmer, I.
Speaker 8: Heard this sentiment on fanline a little bit, saying the
Speaker 8: only reason he's here is because he was from the
Speaker 8: Minnesota Golden Gophers. That might have been the only reason
Speaker 8: he got a shot with the Vikings in training camp.
Speaker 8: You don't make an NFL roster as a favor, you
Speaker 8: might get invited to camp. No, you might get invited
Speaker 8: to camp as a favor.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 8: In fact, it felt like a favor when you saw
Speaker 8: him his name on the list. You're like, all right,
Speaker 8: the Vikes are doing PJ and Brosmer a favor. They're
Speaker 8: gonna let him come try out for the team. You
Speaker 8: don't keep him unless you think he's good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he didn't beat out veterans who've been.
Speaker 8: Exactly yeah, right, so they think he's solid. That's why
Speaker 8: he's here. So that part has no nothing to do
Speaker 8: with the University of Minnesota. The tryout, sure, making the
Speaker 8: team does not. So if they think he's good, good
Speaker 8: enough to put him on the roster.
Speaker 5: Yeah, how about you just put him in and just say,
Speaker 5: do you see why we didn't put him in?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean that's at the end of the world,
Speaker 9: exactly like with Callan Mond, and that was have you
Speaker 9: seen him play?
Speaker 5: Yeah? Right, you want him find here.
Speaker 8: You notice that McCarthy's career is falling apart, and zach
Speaker 8: said to zero words in the first segments, he's sad,
Speaker 8: oh Zachary, Oh buddy, what a rough weekend? For Zachary
Speaker 8: Halverson more the Power to a morning show after this,
Speaker 8: I'm the fan.
Speaker 3: Humid. Oh I'm sorry, sir, I'm sorry.

Speaker 8: second on Saturday. He was cheering, he was on TV.
Speaker 8: Everything was going the Gopher's way until it didn't.
Speaker 5: He looked exactly like like a seven year old boy
Speaker 5: whose favorite player is about to throw him his towel
Speaker 5: as he runs out of the stadium.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and now it was a thirty year old. He
Speaker 3: wants his favorite player to throw him his towel.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he wants he wants it to be a j towel.
Speaker 3: He wants him to throw from the towel as he
Speaker 3: heads into the shower.
Speaker 9: Yeah, no, after he after he cleans himself with it,
Speaker 9: give me your wash ray, Yeah suck.
Speaker 8: You know the Wild last night or afternoon, I guess
Speaker 8: technically Zacchary right late afternoon, the Wild one three zip
Speaker 8: over the Jets. We can talk about that later because
Speaker 8: what they're doing right now is just absolutely insane. Specifically
Speaker 8: of all, instead saved us from another one of those
Speaker 8: just epic disaster sports weekends. Remember like two or three
Speaker 8: weeks ago, For an entire weekend, it was just everything
Speaker 8: that was could have gone awfully bad. That's what happened
Speaker 8: between the Wolves blowing that lead on Friday, which was
Speaker 8: incalculable and it's hard word to say hideous. Then the
Speaker 8: train wreck of a Gopher game on Saturday, then the
Speaker 8: snooze fast train wreck of the Vikings game. It was like,
Speaker 8: this is just another classic, terrible, terrible Minnesota sports weekend.
Speaker 3: And then to cap it off, the Wild just.
Speaker 8: Dominate and Valstad is doing statistically like crazy things right
Speaker 8: now that's basically never been done in the history of
Speaker 8: the Minnesota Wild and the Wild they're doing things that
Speaker 8: are in the conversation for best runs in the NHL
Speaker 8: in the last twenty five to thirty years with a
Speaker 8: couple of statistics, it's kind of nuts.
Speaker 3: Has a shout out to them.
Speaker 8: Three shutouts and four shot shutouts in four games, Yes, sir, Wow,
Speaker 8: good for that guy.
Speaker 3: Did we draft that guy? Sure? First rounder? Neat? Yeah?
Speaker 13: That was uh that was the saving grace for sure.
Speaker 13: The weekend and the Goper hockey team upset number five
Speaker 13: Penn State. That was fun to watch, even though they've
Speaker 13: had a struggling area. We are not far away from
Speaker 13: too far away from that. I mean we were in
Speaker 13: Vegas for half of it. That nightmare of a weekend
Speaker 13: that started on Thursday night.
Speaker 3: Yuck, yuck?
Speaker 8: How was How was Green Bay, Wisconsin? Outside of the game.
Speaker 5: It's just you know, we obviously staying in Appleton, and
Speaker 5: it's the coolest little town and it's always a festive
Speaker 5: atmosphere on a Vikings weekend. We played there like on
Speaker 5: Halloween night, and that's just crazy fun. This time it
Speaker 5: was a little more subdued, but still very much fun.
Speaker 5: And they have a right right downtown. They have a
Speaker 5: strip of the hotel that we that we stay in
Speaker 5: is right on the strip of Main Street and Appleton,
Speaker 5: and there's bar restaurant, restaurant, bar, bar, bar, bar, restaurant, bar,
Speaker 5: and it's just fun.
Speaker 8: Man.
Speaker 5: There's there's a you know, there's more vomit on the
Speaker 5: ground per capita than probably anywhere else in America.
Speaker 3: But they have a.
Speaker 5: A bar arcade. Oh sweet, yeah, like up down yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: only in the very back room. They're not just like
Speaker 5: a old video games that are new versions of the
Speaker 5: old video games. They're the original punch Out. I sent
Speaker 5: you guys that video and playing punch Out.
Speaker 12: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I beat Glass Joe, I beat h So No, who's
Speaker 5: the second one?
Speaker 3: Well, is it the same as the Nintendo version or not?
Speaker 5: Oh that's right, you guys didn't never play. I always
Speaker 5: forget that you guys never played the arcade version. No,
Speaker 5: it's the same.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so second one would be von Kaiser, the German dude,
Speaker 8: Glass Joe, von Keiser, and then Piston Honda.
Speaker 5: Okay, no, it's not then, because uh, I think the
Speaker 5: third dude who beat my A word, I have to
Speaker 5: look it up. I have to look at I can't remember,
Speaker 5: but so I played that. I played Centipede, I played Galaga,
Speaker 5: and then I played some sweet pinball games. Man, just
Speaker 5: the best. They had A Godfather pinball game was awesome.
Speaker 5: I played the Metallica pinball game. I played Jaws, which
Speaker 5: it's it's yeah, maybe the best pinball game out there
Speaker 5: outside of the DAILORHARDI win, So that's cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what order did you say?
Speaker 8: I think it goes Glass Joe, then von Keiser, then
Speaker 8: Pissing Honda. I think fourth is Don Flamenco. Correct, fifth
Speaker 8: is King Hippo's either fifth or sixth. Fifth, then maybe
Speaker 8: like uh great Tiger.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Then at some.
Speaker 8: Point you have to fight Pissing Honda again. I don't
Speaker 8: remember if he's it's bald ball Bull, then Piston Handa,
Speaker 8: than sort of Poppinsky, then bald Bowl again, then Sandman
Speaker 8: then then Don Flamenco again, mister Sandman, then Super Macho Man.
Speaker 5: Super Macha Man was then yeah all right, yeah, okay.
Speaker 5: In the stand up video game, it goes Glass Joe,
Speaker 5: Piston Hurricane, Piston Hurricane. Oh yeah, bald Bowl.
Speaker 8: That's how that's by the way, that's how I know.
Speaker 8: I never did the arcade. I've never heard of Piston
Speaker 8: Hurricane in my life. Yeah, so interesting.
Speaker 5: I beat Glass Joe, I beat Piston Hurricane, and Bald
Speaker 5: Bill beat my ass.
Speaker 3: Well he can swing it man, yeah.
Speaker 5: And then kid Quick, then Pizza Pasta.
Speaker 8: Pizza Quick, and Pizza Pasta sounds, yeah, it sounds Let
Speaker 8: me guess what country he's from. Pizza Pasta is from,
Speaker 8: oh man, where could he be from Thailand?
Speaker 5: And then mister Sandman.
Speaker 3: Man Pizza Pasta basically look at pizza.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, it's you.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, you have more of a ball bowl. Look
Speaker 8: to be honest, like when I had what little hair
Speaker 8: I did, I look like pizza pasta. Pizza Wait a minute,
Speaker 8: look at.
Speaker 5: Those that sec Chin is a different fighter. Later in
Speaker 5: the game, Oh.
Speaker 3: My I am pizza pasta.
Speaker 8: You are Oh my god, Oh my god, your pizza
Speaker 8: pasta did you did you beat me up?
Speaker 5: I didn't get that far. I never did. That's why
Speaker 5: I didn't know Pizza pasta.
Speaker 3: Geesh, but it's like.
Speaker 5: Something real racist. Was the original name, and at the
Speaker 5: last second they had to change it.
Speaker 2: That's how all of them, Yes, yeah, look at him.
Speaker 2: That's that's a mean come on that guy, pizza.
Speaker 5: That's like if I saw that burst of that guy
Speaker 5: walking down the street and I wanted to get in
Speaker 5: a fight with him, a pizza pasta his eyes.
Speaker 10: I'm pitching a guy walking out right with a box
Speaker 10: full of his stuff as he's getting scorted out of
Speaker 10: the building, tears running down his face, and like, buddy,
Speaker 10: what happened. They're like, you're just gonna go with pizza pasta,
Speaker 10: like my idea.
Speaker 3: His side birds go to his shoulder.
Speaker 5: Even the cartoon characters disappointed.
Speaker 4: For sure.
Speaker 3: The guy looks so sad. It's Bezza Pasta. I know
Speaker 3: that guy gets home with a box full of stuff,
Speaker 3: just going. I didn't know it was a slur. It
Speaker 3: sounded sounded right. I worked on that name for four months.
Speaker 3: You're fired my grandmove. Punch out. I don't know what
Speaker 3: that was about. I'm gonna have to get caught off
Speaker 3: Mike Tyson's punch at the arcade.
Speaker 5: To play and it sounded funny.
Speaker 3: I just caught. I caught most of the show and
Speaker 3: then down the hallway, I missed this part.
Speaker 5: Yeah, man, good old pizza pasta, pizza pasta. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 5: we'll talk more fun gopher stuff too.

Speaker 3: Yeah, it's okay, my apologies. So Friday night, I uh
Speaker 3: not a race.
Speaker 8: Okay, I don't think I needed to say that, but
Speaker 8: just in case anybody's questioning that I'm not.
Speaker 5: You had a weird dream.
Speaker 3: It's the most This is like, you know, the whole like, uh.
Speaker 8: You turn it off, you wake up the next morning,
Speaker 8: and you realize that the team blew a lead. I
Speaker 8: turned the game off the second they went up one thirteen,
Speaker 8: one oh five.
Speaker 3: I'm like, all right, there's a minute. It's over.
Speaker 8: So it didn't take me to the morning because then
Speaker 8: I'm like doom scrolling before I go to bed, and
Speaker 8: I see Zach tweet.
Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm like, oh no, what is it? What
Speaker 3: you know? What's the Oh no?
Speaker 5: The seaword broke again.
Speaker 8: And then I realized that he's showing us that ESPN
Speaker 8: Analytics said ninety eight point nine percent of the time
Speaker 8: the Wolves hold on and win. Like, oh wait a minute,
Speaker 8: they were up paid I just turned it up one fourteen,
Speaker 8: one thirteen.
Speaker 3: It was like, with what fifty seconds too or something?
Speaker 3: In here a minute? I think it was one.
Speaker 8: Oh uh they went up one thirteen, one oh five
Speaker 8: with one oh nine to go.
Speaker 3: That's why I went, I.
Speaker 4: That's crazy, I was, I said. I mean, I wasn't watching.
Speaker 4: I was in Chicago, but I was dumb and through
Speaker 4: the same and I saw that they were up. I
Speaker 4: don't even think it was then they're up seven, and
Speaker 4: I just didn't pay any more attention. Same thing they
Speaker 4: like for a second. I had to actually go into
Speaker 4: the play by play, I log into the you know,
Speaker 4: CBS sports line or wherever you get to the box
Speaker 4: score to say, how the hell did that happen?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what it was. Like, what like I missed
Speaker 3: a couple of throws, lads, And obviously it's like a
Speaker 3: turnover turnover turnovers, Like, what what's going on here? Not good?
Speaker 8: No, So we are ten and oh against teams with
Speaker 8: losing records, oh and six against teams with winning records.
Speaker 8: It's like one of those weird stats. It's it's just
Speaker 8: across the board. It's true, kind of like if the
Speaker 8: Gophers go on the road, they lose.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're six and oh at home and five on
Speaker 4: the road, and certainly had their chances Saturday.
Speaker 3: Man, that was a that was a tough one. What
Speaker 3: a weird game.
Speaker 4: It was ten to nothing, they're down, then they're up
Speaker 4: twenty eight thirteen, and you're feeling great. And then and
Speaker 4: in Minnesota scored three touchdowns basically Northwestern mixed a field
Speaker 4: goal in then Northwestern scores three straight goes up seven,
Speaker 4: they get a two point conversion in there, Gophers tie
Speaker 4: it field goal Northwestern, and now you're thinking overtime because
Speaker 4: it's a forty yard field goal to send it overtime
Speaker 4: and wide left, which is which which gives you bad
Speaker 4: flashbacks to start with.
Speaker 8: I don't ever feel good in college football about field goals.
Speaker 3: I don't care if it's a twenty five yarder.
Speaker 8: Those are never guaranteed in college football, correct right always
Speaker 8: makes me nervous, And I don't even think that's just
Speaker 8: me being a Gopher fan. That's just me being a
Speaker 8: college football watcher. It's like, this isn't guaranteed to go in.
Speaker 8: So I was not surprised at all when he pushed
Speaker 8: it to the left and we were headed home.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was all she wrote. And as sus or
Speaker 4: maybe Corey said, I don't remember driving in here. It
Speaker 4: was the Gophers did defense, did not force a punt
Speaker 4: in the second half, and there was there was the
Speaker 4: quarterback for Northwestern, Preston Stone, an SMU transfer, was fifteen
Speaker 4: for fifteen.
Speaker 3: Now, he did throw one incomplete.
Speaker 4: Pass which would have been key on their game what
Speaker 4: eventually was their game winning field goal. It would have
Speaker 4: become a third and sixteen, but the Gopher's best defensive player,
Speaker 4: Anthony Smith, lined up in the neutral zone. Well you
Speaker 4: can't do that, So it became second and eleven and
Speaker 4: they scrambled for a first down and then eventually ran
Speaker 4: out more time and and got the kick. And you know,
Speaker 4: if it's third and sixteen, you like your chances. If
Speaker 4: it's a long field goal, you get more time back.
Speaker 4: Because if they had more time, they might win the game,
Speaker 4: because Northwestern's defense wasn't any good either in the second half,
Speaker 4: and they might score a touchdown to win it. But
Speaker 4: they had fifty two seconds left and you know, took
Speaker 4: one shot to the end zone and then and then
Speaker 4: a chance to tie the game and they didn't get it.
Speaker 4: So just a yeah, it was a bizarre game it
Speaker 4: and it was.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 4: It was pretty crazy. There were almost no Northwestern fans there.
Speaker 4: I was surprised. I don't know if the well, they
Speaker 4: were afraid of Tommy.
Speaker 3: They were Tommy. They scared Mommy was going.
Speaker 4: But you know, the game was the previous week Michigan played,
Speaker 4: and it was it was full and it was ninety
Speaker 4: percent Michigan fans.
Speaker 3: And the next week when the Gophers were there on Saturday.
Speaker 4: I don't know, it was about half full, but it
Speaker 4: was of all those I mean, the Gophers had have
Speaker 4: ten or twelve fifteen thousand people there and there might
Speaker 4: have been a thousand, and they were all in the
Speaker 4: end zone, they were all in field. The Northwestern that
Speaker 4: was their student session. There was almost no adult Northwestern fans. Yeah,
Speaker 4: there was the band and that again, I'm not even
Speaker 4: saying that to say anything other than it was.
Speaker 3: It was a decent Yeah, it was.
Speaker 4: It was a good home home, the neutral site road
Speaker 4: game that had more Gopher fans than not.
Speaker 3: And unfortunately the Gophers still couldn't get the payoff. Well
Speaker 3: there's that, there's that, yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 4: Yeah slow start again, And you're right, it was like
Speaker 4: two eighteen to eight. It was ten to nothing and
Speaker 4: Minnesota had had run like three plays I think fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but then they just they turned it on. They did.
Speaker 4: They dialed it up, and neither team wanted to play
Speaker 4: too much defense. But the Gophers will have to figure
Speaker 4: out defensively some things because this is now the third
Speaker 4: straight game where a quarterback has just gone off on them.
Speaker 4: Two of the three quarterbacks have not had any track
Speaker 4: record of of anything along those lines. In fact, the
Speaker 4: one quarterback from Michigan State who through three hundred yards
Speaker 4: had never started a game, and then Preston Stone on Saturday,
Speaker 4: he had not thrown for over two hundred yards, over
Speaker 4: two hundred yards against any Big ten opponent, and.
Speaker 3: He did that almost in the second half alone.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he had three hundred and five for the game.
Speaker 4: And yeah, so they got to figure a few things out.
Speaker 4: Wisconsin comes to town. Wisconsin's defense is really good. They're
Speaker 4: playing a lot better. A month ago, this looked like
Speaker 4: it would be a win, and now it's I think
Speaker 4: a coin toss as you look at what Minnesota's defensively done. Now,
Speaker 4: Wisconsin's offense is not very good, but their defense has
Speaker 4: really come around. They they just beat Illinois and they
Speaker 4: killed the front four, front five of Illinois. They were
Speaker 4: in the backfield the whole game. I know there is
Speaker 4: a trial, the arraignment is next week, but so yeah,
Speaker 4: I think it's a coin toss type game. This is
Speaker 4: the Gophers are going to have to figure some things
Speaker 4: out defensively. They're gonna have to figure out pass protection
Speaker 4: because this Wisconsin defense has now dialed into into pass pressure.
Speaker 4: Sacks the other thing. The Gophers led the Big Ten
Speaker 4: and sacks to start today Saturday, they only got one
Speaker 4: and that came on an intentional grounding call. It wasn't
Speaker 4: even a sack where they actually got the quarterback.
Speaker 3: Well, things change.
Speaker 8: It's like last year the Vikings had a billion turnovers
Speaker 8: and now we can't get any turnovers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, things change.
Speaker 5: There's saying turnovers. I'm gonna start in the eight.
Speaker 4: Big Ten games. Gophers have three games where they have
Speaker 4: seven or more sacks, and then the other games they
Speaker 4: have one or none. So it's really kind of a
Speaker 4: feast or famine on the sax situation.
Speaker 3: Your hand was us.
Speaker 8: ESPN is projecting that the Golden Gophers will play on Friday,
Speaker 8: December twenty six in Phoenix at the Rate Bowl, and
Speaker 8: they will play Kansas State.
Speaker 3: Oh Man is.
Speaker 4: Kansas they got they gotta win though, right Kansas State
Speaker 4: is five and five. I want to say, yeah, they
Speaker 4: played some crate was it Utah?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: I like fifty one forty eight or something? Yeah, some
Speaker 3: crazy game. I think I saw Ben tweet for three
Speaker 3: hundred yards and we lost or something.
Speaker 9: And the other guy has you going on Saturday December
Speaker 9: twenty seventh to the bowl game at Yankee Stadium.
Speaker 4: The Pinstripe Bowl. I would I think it's probably headed
Speaker 4: toward Phoenix, but I don't know. I saw one other projection.
Speaker 4: Iowa State would be the opponent, but I think the
Speaker 4: second time the Gophers to played Iowa was State down
Speaker 4: in that bowl game. If that, if that would turn out,
Speaker 4: But I think, yeah, I think you're right. Phoenix, New York.
Speaker 4: Those are probably the two options right now for Minnesota. No, really,
Speaker 4: regardless of what happens, you're just.
Speaker 8: Trying to manifest Phoenix because you don't want to go
Speaker 8: to New York at the end of December.
Speaker 3: Yeah, although that was the time we went. I enjoyed it.
Speaker 3: It was it was kind of fun. There's stuff to
Speaker 3: do in New York around Christmas. It was. It was good.
Speaker 3: I went a few extra days.
Speaker 8: Actually, they have this unbelievable pizza place in New York
Speaker 8: called Saborrow. You want to get real, like authentic New
Speaker 8: York style, that's it? Yeah, is that that's where? That's
Speaker 8: the one the Vikings have the post game. No, that's
Speaker 8: off office Bounce. Oh is a blues riff and bee

Speaker 5: Here's the question for everybody in there as we go
Speaker 5: into what really matters Corey Cove Yes, sir, welcome back
Speaker 5: to the Patrick everybody. By the way, if this were
Speaker 5: one of those feel good sports movies, let's see. Let's
Speaker 5: say Billy Beam was your coach, and Michael Or was
Speaker 5: your first basement.
Speaker 3: Far birthday a crossing the universe.
Speaker 5: My memory is not great, ye playing.
Speaker 3: He's a gymnast, Ye right?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, the quarterback any given Sunday.
Speaker 5: He's the fish on refrigerator.
Speaker 7: Yes he is.
Speaker 5: Who sings to me about being on a low budget.
Speaker 5: I don't know what's going on. I'm high. Listen to me.
Speaker 5: If this was a feel good story, what would the
Speaker 5: old guy with the hat who was a cat he
Speaker 5: come in and do with JJ McCarthy like Chubs from
Speaker 5: how would he make him feel better? Yeah, Chobs, If
Speaker 5: you want to use Chubs, that's fine. What would he
Speaker 5: do with the quarterback? If this was a feel good story,
Speaker 5: if this was if if they were if if we
Speaker 5: were watching a movie about this year and some miracle
Speaker 5: happened where somebody came in and changed JJ's life, his trajectory.
Speaker 5: What would be the key scene that started to turnaround
Speaker 5: where the kids stopped being a brat and became a
Speaker 5: good kid because he saw the light where the the
Speaker 5: hitter got over the yips and started actually hitting the ball.
Speaker 5: What would be the feeld good team? What would the
Speaker 5: good guy do that changed everything? And then he disappeared
Speaker 5: into the ether?
Speaker 8: Well, the problem is is you just mentioned like happy Gilmore. Yeah,
Speaker 8: is we can't have JJ go to his happy place.
Speaker 8: He does that two and a half hours before the game,
Speaker 8: and that ain't helping. Yeah, so the meditating thing isn't working.
Speaker 8: Lost his breast pass behind him?
Speaker 5: Maybe behind him, I'm disturbing him. Kid kids and.
Speaker 8: Old brother and the guy that plays guitar and then
Speaker 8: just flat out sold the soul to the devil so
Speaker 8: we could play guitar.
Speaker 4: So well, yeah, that'd be an idea. Yeah, we're on
Speaker 4: the flip side. Maybe somebody rattles his cage, maybe like
Speaker 4: boulder him. You throw the bats into the shower and
Speaker 4: call them lolly gegers and tell them to get their
Speaker 4: crap together.
Speaker 5: You know what that makes them lolly gegers? You know
Speaker 5: what I would do? You know what I think happened?
Speaker 5: Would happen? I think Bagger Vans would come in.
Speaker 3: Was that good? I never saw that.
Speaker 5: I never saw it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he would certainly would. The Bagger was the man.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, he would say, hey, JJ, come outside with
Speaker 5: me for a minute. Now. I know you're thinking, I'm
Speaker 5: thinking about what his ass. But he's gonna take him
Speaker 5: outside and he's going to say, you know what this is,
Speaker 5: and he's going to throw him in an old football
Speaker 5: And JJ said, what is it? Beggar? And I got
Speaker 5: real bad problem.
Speaker 13: And thes like, it's a football, JJ, You should you
Speaker 13: should know this by now.
Speaker 3: That's probably your biggest problems. That you were throwing the
Speaker 3: football and you said what is that?
Speaker 5: He'd say, hey, uh, team doc, can you come over
Speaker 5: and evaluate him for a concussion? Please? He doesn't know
Speaker 5: what the first problem. Don't put in your mouth, he'd say.
Speaker 5: He'd say, what is it? And and uh And bagger
Speaker 5: Vans would say, uh, well, that's the football you had
Speaker 5: when you were twelve years old and you still loved
Speaker 5: playing football. Let's just toss the ball around a little bit.
Speaker 5: Do you know who this is? And JJ be like, no,
Speaker 5: I don't know who that young man is. He'd say,
Speaker 5: this is your childhood best friend. You really need to
Speaker 5: be evaluated for a concussion. Is his name is Larry Bitchness.
Speaker 5: Very unfortunate, but.
Speaker 3: Well it's a long wide of business.
Speaker 5: And they just started tossing the ball around, and Baggier
Speaker 5: Vans would say to JJ McCarthy, see football, you know
Speaker 5: that complicated? Remember when you used to throw the ball
Speaker 5: to Bitchness and it was just for the fun of it.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I'm liking the story. I'm already hearing like the
Speaker 13: inspirational music behind right, the goose bumps a settling in.
Speaker 5: That's not the right music. But yeah, hi, I need
Speaker 5: I need Ben to hear this though. He needs to
Speaker 5: know what's going on.
Speaker 8: Ben has given up on this team. Yeah, wants to quit, Ben, Ben,
Speaker 8: you can't you guys can't say that.
Speaker 3: You've already signed up. What did I What did I
Speaker 3: do to walk in to give you guys that impression?
Speaker 3: Did you?
Speaker 5: Beggar Vance has come in and talked to JJ and
Speaker 5: taking him out back and and and giving him a
Speaker 5: football and brought his childhood friend Larry Bitchmissen and he's like,
Speaker 5: just remember what it's like to play and have fun
Speaker 5: in the backyard. Remember when you liked football? Remember? And
Speaker 5: then uh, JJ's like, I see.
Speaker 3: Thanks, bagger, God, I don't think it's about oh you guys, And.
Speaker 5: Then and then he disappears under the ether.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just leave. It was another game again yesterday, Ben
Speaker 3: were yesterday.
Speaker 8: That was JJ McCarthy. That wasn't nine. That was just
Speaker 8: JJ and JJ airmails it. It's it's so bad now
Speaker 8: that the show after us is eight fifty five to noon.
Speaker 8: That's how bad it is now. Even they won't say
Speaker 8: we should just say we're five thirty to eight fifty five.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think it was a little early on the
Speaker 3: nine bit. Well, but we all said that at the time.
Speaker 3: You don't, you shouldn't.
Speaker 8: That was a bad idea, even if it would have
Speaker 8: started to go well, because it was the first glimpse
Speaker 8: of I think some people throw out the name Russell Wilson,
Speaker 8: like you can't really give yourself a nickname and an
Speaker 8: alter ego unless you're Tom Brady. Then if Tom Brady's
Speaker 8: like I'm twelve and go yeah, yeah, yeah, that's exactly who.
Speaker 3: You are right this way? Twelve Yeah.
Speaker 5: Sure.
Speaker 8: And then Lawrence Bitchness the second or LBJ, He's like
Speaker 8: table for two please, and you're like, no, well, yeah.
Speaker 3: Lawrence's Larry, It's Lawrence is his birth name?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 12: Still yeah, Oh, it is a lot of els, a
Speaker 12: lot you know, you guys, you guys just go for
Speaker 12: fans took a fat ol and me, as a k
Speaker 12: State fan, took I think a bigger l. Good god,
Speaker 12: you guys, like bad weekend for for people that are
Speaker 12: KSE State and Viking fans.
Speaker 3: Now they might play in the same Bowl game.
Speaker 12: I know that would be great because Tommy and I's
Speaker 12: bet is still man, it's it's right there. I mean,
Speaker 12: if k State had pulled off the upset at Utah,
Speaker 12: we would have had the same record with just what
Speaker 12: one game to go?
Speaker 3: Do you guys the same record? It's a push that
Speaker 3: is did you guys. Ever, I keep going back and
Speaker 3: forth because it happens so long ago. I don't remember.
Speaker 12: It's just regular season or if it's a bowl game,
Speaker 12: it should be. I think it's just a regular season,
Speaker 12: which still time. If if they meet in the bowl
Speaker 12: game and they have the same record, what a perfect.
Speaker 3: Keeping it? Bet going? Yeah?
Speaker 12: So K State plays Colorado at home next week and
Speaker 12: they need that win, right, Oh yeah, we got to
Speaker 12: have that win to be bowled.
Speaker 3: They're seventeen and a half point favorites. Yeah, dude, I.
Speaker 4: Wach Prime not getting it done. No, he's a terrible coach.
Speaker 4: I mean, let's be honest. I mean he's not agree coached.
Speaker 4: Two players that are already have their numbers retired.
Speaker 9: What's the Shane Elizabeth? You can see why he went,
Speaker 9: you know, twelve of fifteen in the Rate Bowls.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, Ben, here's our radio teas.
Speaker 8: I want I want a one word answer, and then
Speaker 8: we'll come back and you can explain why you say
Speaker 8: either yes or no?
Speaker 3: Okay, one word answer.
Speaker 8: Should the Vikings start Max Brosmer next week?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: Ben explains why after this on the fan.
Speaker 13: Sprodday Black Friday, Traditional Awsome Mess The Power Trip Live
Speaker 13: at My America Hunting in bank Rotunda seven to nine
Speaker 13: kf dot com.
Speaker 8: Keyword calendar for Benjamin What what year did you start
Speaker 8: joining the Power Trip Morning, Joe?
Speaker 3: Do you remember? It's a great question, Christian.
Speaker 5: I think it was thirteen twelve, that's yeah, back back.
Speaker 3: Was that the Bronze age?
Speaker 5: That's right? Yeah, yeah, we were all sure, Golden God. Yeah,
Speaker 5: Jesus man. When was your last year in the NFL
Speaker 5: twenty eleven? Twenty eleven?
Speaker 3: I mean soon afterwards.
Speaker 12: I mean I don't know, like officially, but you guys
Speaker 12: would have me on like in twenty twelve.
Speaker 8: So we're talking thirteen of the twenty thirteen ish of
Speaker 8: the twenty four years you've been a part of this garbage. Sure,
Speaker 8: that's a big chunk.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess trouble ever since.
Speaker 8: So I believe it was Ryan Donald said that said
Speaker 8: it best.
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 12: Yeah, no, guys, thank you, thank you all the appreciation.
Speaker 12: Waffle Hall back to you.
Speaker 3: Uh do I do I have to talk about the
Speaker 3: Vikings game? Well, now you have to. We have to
Speaker 3: pay off the radio teas.
Speaker 5: We don't have to.
Speaker 3: We can do whatever we want.
Speaker 8: I asked you if you would start Max Brosmer next week,
Speaker 8: and you said no, And now here's your chance to
Speaker 8: expand upon that and basically explain yes or no.
Speaker 3: So this is no. I don't think that you start,
Speaker 3: Max Brozember. So so here's my analogy that I said
Speaker 3: to you.
Speaker 12: I was like, I probably shouldn't say this, but like,
Speaker 12: I don't know why I couldn't say this, right, it's
Speaker 12: it's it's just a silly, stupid analogy. The way I
Speaker 12: sort of look at this in a silly manner is
Speaker 12: the fact that like, and let me, let me put
Speaker 12: the asterisks out there. I know that people don't train
Speaker 12: their dogs like this, but we kind of used to
Speaker 12: train our dogs like this. If the dog would like
Speaker 12: pop in the house, then you catch them doing it.
Speaker 7: Kick the crap out of well, you don't know what
Speaker 7: Jesus you like wided you like, you stick their nose
Speaker 7: in it, and you bad dog, bad dog, and they
Speaker 7: stay him outside to where they.
Speaker 5: Oh, that's said. That's how we changed friend our children.
Speaker 12: That's how I changed our our youngest one as well.
Speaker 12: He just wouldn't I mean wells just would not be
Speaker 12: body trained. So if he did it in the living room,
Speaker 12: we stick his nose in it.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Now he lives outside and he's outside a couple of
Speaker 3: months for and he just took a whiz in the kitchen.
Speaker 12: Which is kind of which is which is kind of
Speaker 12: like in a funny way. I mean, of all of
Speaker 12: my kids, well my two boys, my daughter doesn't do it.
Speaker 3: He's the one.
Speaker 12: He's he's the one that will go. He'll ask to
Speaker 12: go outside to go Pete, can I go outside? I'm
Speaker 12: like sure, why though I don't.
Speaker 3: Know kids like to.
Speaker 5: That's why I let him do a standard prac outside urination. Yeah,
Speaker 5: right there on the sidebox fifty in France.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Any anyway, sorry, anyway.
Speaker 12: So I sort of feel like, dude, this is your mess,
Speaker 12: your your mess, stick your nose stick. JJ's knows it,
Speaker 12: and be like, no, bad quarterback, bad quarterback. You go
Speaker 12: out to Seattle and you play again. That's kind of
Speaker 12: how I feel about it. It is like this is
Speaker 12: so to start brozmer No, what is that? What does
Speaker 12: that teach you nothing? It's like, all right, you played back.
Speaker 12: Let's be honest. Is this a playoff team?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 12: Yeah, season's over, it's not. So where are we going?
Speaker 12: So what's the rest of the year. You and I
Speaker 12: have talked about this very loudly. If the team wins
Speaker 12: or loses, yeah, that's great.
Speaker 3: If we win.
Speaker 12: We just want to be competitive. We want we want
Speaker 12: a competitive football team. There are lots of ways to
Speaker 12: lose games. The season is a success if you see
Speaker 12: gradual and market improvement from your quarterback, JJ McCarthy. We're
Speaker 12: not seeing that. It's the way, it's the other way.
Speaker 12: He's regressing. We're not seeing any improvement from from game
Speaker 12: to game. So if he's not improving and the team
Speaker 12: is finding ways to lose games, well, the seasons over,
Speaker 12: you can't you can't talk about playoffs. We're trying to
Speaker 12: win just one game here. So I think for the
Speaker 12: development of JJ, if he wants to have a semblance
Speaker 12: of a you know, winning this team back, he's got
Speaker 12: to go out there and earn it. So you can't
Speaker 12: do that by sitting on the bench. And if this
Speaker 12: truly is going to be year to year to see
Speaker 12: what he looks like, if he's the franchise quarterback, then
Speaker 12: he's got to go out there in good times and
Speaker 12: the bad and see if he can take those leadership
Speaker 12: skills that we talk about and will this team to
Speaker 12: a victory on Sunday and then we see what happens
Speaker 12: again the following Sunday, and we just really take it
Speaker 12: one game at a time.
Speaker 3: But no, I don't think that we start Max.
Speaker 8: Brother all right, but how bad does it have to
Speaker 8: get before you say we can't do this anymore? You
Speaker 8: got to throw Max in there, like there's only six
Speaker 8: games left. If he's this bad for two or three more?
Speaker 8: Do you give Brozman to the final two or three
Speaker 8: games to say JJ is broken?
Speaker 3: We have to start over.
Speaker 12: It's a long term plan. Are if you are? If
Speaker 12: you're thrown in the white talel JJ McCarthy. Right now,
Speaker 12: let's just say, let's just say they listen to some
Speaker 12: of what you guys are saying and they start Max Brosmer.
Speaker 3: How do you come back from that? Well you might not,
Speaker 3: and that that might be a good thing or a
Speaker 3: bad thing.
Speaker 2: I get.
Speaker 3: You know, everybody's not fair to to JJ.
Speaker 12: To everybody in the organism, to everybody, I mean JJ
Speaker 12: in and using a first shown draft pick to give
Speaker 12: him six games.
Speaker 8: No, that probably that's probably not fair. But I think
Speaker 8: the best recent example is Bryce Young, right. They he
Speaker 8: was so bad they benched him yeah, they said you're
Speaker 8: falling apart. You need like a mental reset. Now, some
Speaker 8: quarterbacks might be devastated. That might be the end of
Speaker 8: it if you mentally get benched. Bryce is figuring it out. No, again,
Speaker 8: that's one example. So you can't just use it as
Speaker 8: the gold standard and say this is how it works.
Speaker 8: Sometimes maybe a wake up call like that would help
Speaker 8: a quarterback like this, and other times it might devastate him.
Speaker 3: I don't know how he would process that. No idea.
Speaker 5: Is it his own poop that I'm shoving his nose in?
Speaker 3: Whose poop?
Speaker 4: Is?
Speaker 3: Yeah? It is? Yeah, yeah, yeah, because he's not Dwight Hockey.
Speaker 3: Well yeah, it's not the cat's poop. Okay, what if
Speaker 3: we compromise?
Speaker 8: What if we shove his nose in Max Brosmer's poop?
Speaker 3: That would be so meaning close, real close. You had
Speaker 3: your hand up. I'm a serious.
Speaker 5: He he wants his poop.
Speaker 9: Can it get any worse than the second half of yesterday?
Speaker 9: I don't think it can.
Speaker 3: Again, that was we got it. I hope not.
Speaker 9: I don't think you can get any worse. I don't
Speaker 9: think you can go punt punt, punt, interception, interception. Then
Speaker 9: the game in the second half. I don't think you
Speaker 9: can do that. That was awful, Like, what do they
Speaker 9: have four yards? People are arguing this is four yards
Speaker 9: is a minus one yard. It's hideous, hideous. It can't
Speaker 9: get any worse than yesterday. So only positivity from here
Speaker 9: on out. It can't any worse than yesterday.
Speaker 3: They were running the ball.
Speaker 9: The Packers were because they felt bad, as you guys
Speaker 9: said earlier.
Speaker 3: No, that should have been forty thousand to nothing. They
Speaker 3: were running a vanilla eighth grade offense to end the game. God,
Speaker 3: I love vanilla mel favorite.
Speaker 5: Went to school that was to.
Speaker 3: Wafers. Yeah, those are good, duke.
Speaker 12: I will say it in hindsight, it it does seem
Speaker 12: like because they play on Thanksgiving Day, right they do,
Speaker 12: so it does. It did seem like once they re
Speaker 12: established control of the game in the second half, let's
Speaker 12: just say the fourth quarter, because the third quarter is
Speaker 12: still kind of like, you know, we could we could
Speaker 12: make a comeback.
Speaker 3: They can make a mistake. It did seem like the
Speaker 3: fourth quarter is like, all right, we're moving on. Let's
Speaker 3: just run.
Speaker 12: Let's just run the football, let's just do let's just
Speaker 12: do the bare necessities to kind of get out of this.
Speaker 3: Same with the win.
Speaker 4: To two questions, Ben two, I, as a Gopher guy,
Speaker 4: I agree, I don't think Rozemers should start. Yet, that said,
Speaker 4: what would you say about if a game's going the
Speaker 4: way it was yesterday, throwing him in at the end
Speaker 4: to give him a series, just to see what you got,
Speaker 4: just to compare it to see is this an issue
Speaker 4: with the rest of the team or is this potentially
Speaker 4: a quarterback issue?
Speaker 3: And then two Corey used the example of Bryce Young.
Speaker 4: What about the example potentially of say Trey Lance, who
Speaker 4: they burned all those draft picks with picked, and then
Speaker 4: some guy who was a nobody, brock Perdy, becomes a
Speaker 4: guy who's making two hundred million dollars. I'm not suggesting
Speaker 4: Max Rosmer's that guy, but it wouldn't be the most
Speaker 4: impossible thing. It's almost identical right where they they had Lance,
Speaker 4: they had Garoppolo.
Speaker 3: They both end up out we.
Speaker 4: Had Wentz, we had we had Wentz and we have
Speaker 4: JJ and then here comes this kid that he wasn't
Speaker 4: the last pick in the draft, like like Purty, but
Speaker 4: basically draft just to see if, oh man, maybe we
Speaker 4: have something here, Maybe this is our guy.
Speaker 3: And we don't even know it.
Speaker 8: But the Niners story Ben is the proof that if
Speaker 8: you can find a quarterback, it doesn't matter if it
Speaker 8: was the third overall pick or mister irrelevant. Right, Like
Speaker 8: Purdy was better than Lance, so they said, we can't
Speaker 8: go back to Trey Lance.
Speaker 3: This kid's better.
Speaker 8: If Brozemer is better than McCarthy, and we have no
Speaker 8: idea if he is until we see it, that's good
Speaker 8: for the Vikings. If Brozmer is like a Pro Bowl
Speaker 8: caliber quarterback, who cares if he was undrafted and we
Speaker 8: wasted a first round game, JJ, you gotta go with
Speaker 8: the best guy.
Speaker 3: We don't know that. Yeah, we don't know, very very
Speaker 3: very doesn't. But if you haven't get a series somewhere,
Speaker 3: like I said, I don't know whether you start, let's go.
Speaker 4: Let's say it's twenty eight to three next week and
Speaker 4: late third quarter. What good is sending McCarthy back out
Speaker 4: into that situation?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 12: Right, No, I think I think that there are scenarios
Speaker 12: where that happens. Sure, sure, I mean if we are
Speaker 12: if we're getting dusted like that in the second half
Speaker 12: and this looks like there's no spark and you feel
Speaker 12: like you got to give a spark to this offense.
Speaker 12: Then I then I could see, all right, barring injury
Speaker 12: or we're just getting crushed, Yeah, go ahead and put
Speaker 12: the guy in there, and then it's easily justifiable. Like
Speaker 12: the thing is though, in that scenario, are you keeping
Speaker 12: Addison in? Are you keeping JJ in? Are you keeping
Speaker 12: Aaron Jones in?
Speaker 3: Like? Yes, yeah, so.
Speaker 12: That's so that if it's if it's truly just like
Speaker 12: him being benched, that would be that would be something
Speaker 12: that would be an interesting thing.
Speaker 3: But I don't know. I do think, yeah, I think
Speaker 3: if you throw.
Speaker 12: Out hypotheticals, yeah, there are hypothetical situations where I think
Speaker 12: Broswick could could enter the game, But I don't think
Speaker 12: that he starts the game.
Speaker 5: Okay, before you ask her, can I expand this for
Speaker 5: one second? If if coach is seeing JJ, if coach
Speaker 5: is saying to JJ, go out there, do and do
Speaker 5: black and red, and j JJ go goes out and
Speaker 5: does purple and yellow, would it be beneficial for coach
Speaker 5: to say, demn it, you're not listening to me, Max,
Speaker 5: go in. Watch what happens when you listen to me?
Speaker 3: Sure you know what I mean?
Speaker 5: And I don't know if that's what's happening.
Speaker 3: And I'm just saying, look, look, children started to try
Speaker 3: to do that with Brett Farv.
Speaker 5: Did it work.
Speaker 3: No, But I'm saying that, like, I can see how
Speaker 3: even the annoyance.
Speaker 12: Level of a head coach trying to get a quarterback
Speaker 12: to regardless of Hall of Fame status or year in
Speaker 12: your first year, if you're not doing what the coach
Speaker 12: wants you to do from a mental standpoint, from a
Speaker 12: gameplay standpoint, just a play setup, then yeah, you can't
Speaker 12: go rogue and do your own thing yank him out
Speaker 12: of there. I don't think that's the case though, you know,
Speaker 12: I haven't heard one thing. I mean, we just keep
Speaker 12: hearing like he is doing a lot of the things
Speaker 12: that they like, you know, checking into certain things, canning
Speaker 12: certain plays. Like the mental side seems to be working.
Speaker 12: It's the physical side that's failing.
Speaker 8: Even though Rosener would be fun and I'm all for
Speaker 8: it if they want to try it, the argument against
Speaker 8: it is.
Speaker 3: The Josh Rosen Kyler Murray theory.
Speaker 8: Right, yeah, if this is bad and you give McCarthy
Speaker 8: the next six and at the end of the year,
Speaker 8: you're like the vikings can look in the mirror and go,
Speaker 8: this is the wrong guy.
Speaker 3: We've seen it. He's not getting better. We don't think
Speaker 3: we can fix this.
Speaker 8: It's over the faster, you know that the better right
Speaker 8: if you delay it and throw broze More out for
Speaker 8: a handful of weeks and then you're like, well, let's
Speaker 8: give McCarthy the offseason, we'll see what we have. Well,
Speaker 8: then you kind of maybe are flying blind next year.
Speaker 8: If you can evaluate a player's entire career in six
Speaker 8: more games, now's the time to do it, because then
Speaker 8: you can do what the Cardinals did with Josh Rosen.
Speaker 8: They knew after one year, whoops, this is the wrong guy,
Speaker 8: and then they drafted Kyler Murray because they had the
Speaker 8: number one pick. If this season goes super southward, that's
Speaker 8: not working out either, for.
Speaker 3: Sure, but at least they knew that they were wrong
Speaker 3: the first time. Yeah, so you have the same situation here.
Speaker 8: If McCarthy's the wrong guy and this season continues to
Speaker 8: go really poorly, you're going to be drafting somewhere between
Speaker 8: five and ten and you're going to have a crack
Speaker 8: at one of the top probably two or three quarterbacks,
Speaker 8: and you might have to pull the trigger on a
Speaker 8: new one because you have the wrong one. So that's
Speaker 8: the argument to keep him in there, the first team
Speaker 8: that has had to do that. And no, and not
Speaker 8: to get too deep in the weeds, but you're going
Speaker 8: to be in a draft again. Every team in front
Speaker 8: of you needs a quarterback.
Speaker 5: That's most drafts, and let me, let me get deeper
Speaker 5: in the weeds.
Speaker 3: Let's do it.
Speaker 5: Going back to mister irrelevant and brought purty. Yeah, you
Speaker 5: know who you got a real shot at? Is missus
Speaker 5: irrelevant because let me tell you right now, she's married
Speaker 5: to mister irrelevant and she is disappointed with her whole life.
Speaker 5: You came in with flowers, a little bit of tickling.
Speaker 5: You got a real shot at a lady who's just
Speaker 5: looking for some relevance.
Speaker 3: You mean she sounds like a predator.
Speaker 5: You're not the first person to say.
Speaker 8: If walking in with flowers and tickling is the sign
Speaker 8: of a predator, then nine to noon has a lot
Speaker 8: of questions. Ben, I'm not trying to pile on, but
Speaker 8: of course I'm going to, because that's how I started
Speaker 8: my sentence. Yeah, I'm going to give you a name.
Speaker 8: You tell me who this person is. Gavin Bartholomew he's
Speaker 8: a tight end, right, yeah for Seahawks, he's technically still here.
Speaker 8: Kobe King, Oh yeah, linebacker for US. Nope, wait, we
Speaker 8: waved him, didn't play with the Jets.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we waved him like two weeks ago or something.
Speaker 3: Tyrian Ingram Dawkins, Well, yeah, he's still our team. Tie Felton,
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, okay.
Speaker 8: Kind of Donovan Jackson, duh, everybody's a fan of Donovan, right,
Speaker 8: he's playing well yeah, right, fine, yeah, he's playing.
Speaker 5: Fine.
Speaker 8: Now that's your twenty twenty five Vikings draft. Donovan Jackson, sure,
Speaker 8: Tye Felton, Tyrian Ingram Dawkins, Kobe King, Gavin barthol On.
Speaker 8: You No, you could say, well, they didn't have a
Speaker 8: lot of picks this year, Well, yeah, because they gave
Speaker 8: up a bunch of picks to get Dallas Turner, who's
Speaker 8: also mostly a bust. This drafting, I mean, I know
Speaker 8: everybody's piling on because it's just atrocious, Like it's an
Speaker 8: f Quacy's draft record is just brutal.
Speaker 3: It's so bad. The best team in the league, maybe
Speaker 3: in the NFC, is the uh the Rams.
Speaker 8: What are they?
Speaker 3: What do they do best? Draft?
Speaker 8: They have older talent and they have outstanding draft class.
Speaker 8: Oh did you see I know this is not the gospel,
Speaker 8: but did you see the start of Sunday Night Football
Speaker 8: last night?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 8: You know how they do those Matt Stafford, darg or whatever, right, yeah,
Speaker 8: Dusty Steve. They had the Pro Football Focus grades. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 8: which everybody hates. Yeah, everybody hates unless you're the Rams.
Speaker 8: Because almost every player, almost every player that got announced
Speaker 8: on the offense was like Matt Stafford one of thirty two, right,
Speaker 8: he was a rank one, number one, But everybody else
Speaker 8: is like they'd say, Puka nakuas like number two on
Speaker 8: to Adams is like number ten. It was just everybody
Speaker 8: was like top ten or twelve in the league according
Speaker 8: to Pro Football Focus. On the Rams offense, it was
Speaker 8: just top rated guy after top rated guy after top
Speaker 8: rated guy. Whether that is reality is irrelevant. You must
Speaker 8: have if you' Sean mcville, you're looking at that, you're like, man,
Speaker 8: we are loaded. I am everybody's just killing this.
Speaker 3: Less sneed is good at that and then man, just
Speaker 3: as important.
Speaker 12: I'm sure when they're going through their defensive line, it
Speaker 12: was it was eight you know, eight of thirty, right,
Speaker 12: you know, twelve of thirty I mean those guys are first.
Speaker 3: They got in the same draft. Those were back to
Speaker 3: back picks.
Speaker 5: Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and who could have had Verse?
Speaker 8: We could have I think Verse and Fisk are taken
Speaker 8: on common in that bracket, the sixty four dot com versus.
Speaker 5: You don't like to get first, you don't forget the
Speaker 5: this is irrelevant.
Speaker 3: Such a good life, hey Grimmer, Yes.
Speaker 5: Before we let you go, what's going on this weekend?
Speaker 4: This weekend Gopher football Wisconsin battles to thirty kick twelve
Speaker 4: thirty right here Saturday?
Speaker 3: Is that a game that is right here in the
Speaker 3: Twin Cities.
Speaker 5: And we're playing Seattle by that one? Darn it? Okay, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: that sounds like fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't wait. Let's get the axe or keep
Speaker 3: the ax? We have the ax, we want to keep it? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: all right. The news is next the podcast Morning Joe
Speaker 3: on the Van
