Speaker 2: Hello, Paul, how are you. It's a pleasure to be on.

10
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that that kind of describes a lot

11
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 3: of it.

12
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: You know.

13
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 3: I always give all glory to God and love sports

14
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 3: and love.

15
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: Covering it and talking about it.

16
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: Now now now you and I share the Gospel and

17
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: talk about the Bible two thousands yearly, and we also

18
00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: have sports shows.

19
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 4: How does the Christian and you manage that balance?

20
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 2: Well?

21
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: My priority list of my life, really, it's my whole

22
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 3: adult life has been God, family, and career in that order.

23
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 3: Obviously they overlap, but I try to keep those as

24
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 3: the priorities God first, family, second, career third, and you know,

25
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 3: with as you know, in sports, there are a lot

26
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 3: of teams and leagues.

27
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: Where you know Christianity is, it's.

28
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 3: Pretty well rooted in a lot of the sports.

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: I mean basketball.

30
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 3: James Natesmith created it as a way to share the Gospel,

31
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 3: you know, that was one of his intentions when he

32
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: created it.

33
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: Football. I mean I remember growing.

34
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 3: Up playing football through high school and we would always

35
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 3: pray before the game as a team. You know, someone

36
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 3: would say a prayer. Same thing my college basketball team,

37
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 3: and it wasn't a Christian school, but you know, somebody.

38
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 2: Would always pray.

39
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 3: So that's kind of been a big part of sports.

40
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: Not that everybody's really followed it and lived it out,

41
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: but it has had a presence for me now as

42
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 3: a commentator. And this was the case when I was

43
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 3: just a reporter as well, but now that I'm offering.

44
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: Opinions, I just try to be fair.

45
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 3: You know, the Bible tells us to do under others

46
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 3: as you would have them do under you. I will want, obviously,

47
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: people to treat me fairly, and so I try to

48
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 3: treat people fairly. Sometimes that does involve criticism. I try

49
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 3: not to criticize people for personal you know, like because

50
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 3: of personal reasons. I just try to keep it grounded

51
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 3: in performance and things like that, and you know, even

52
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 3: as Christian, those are sometimes there's tough things you have

53
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 3: to do. If you were a Christian coach, for instance,

54
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 3: you might have to cut a player and that player

55
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 3: would be heard and upset and all that. But that

56
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 3: is just life and Christians aren't, you know, apart from

57
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 3: things like that.

58
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 2: So I try to just be fair.

59
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 3: In my comments about athletes pro or cons and try

60
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 3: to keep it on the field and not even if

61
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 3: I disagree with a person's lifestyle or whatever, I'm not

62
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 3: gonna criticize them based on it.

63
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do it based on their performance on the field.

64
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 3: I try to never let that stuff enter into my

65
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: commentary unless the topic is actually about something like that.

66
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: Now, Chris is going to be in Minnesota in a

67
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: couple of weeks for an event called or Rise with

68
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: the guys at Grace Church and Eden Prairie. I'll be

69
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: there with CJ. Ham Cooper, cup to time Super Bowl Champion.

70
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: He'll be there likewise for hof Tony Dungee and much more. Also,

71
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: the Nine to Noon producer Nordo will be at a

72
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: Rise with the guys, so maybe you guys will meet

73
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 1: And he's also the show's soccer officionado. And before we

74
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: talk about a rise with the guys, I want to

75
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: start here with Chris Broussard. Chris Underscore Brusard via the

76
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 1: X Machine. Mister Brussard, why did you pick France to

77
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: win the FIFA World Cup and the Nordo please analyze

78
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: said take when he's done.

79
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 3: Well, Look, I am not a soccer expert, but I

80
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 3: am you know, I do follow it a little bit

81
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 3: and I'm following, you know, getting more.

82
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 2: Into it as we prepare for the World Cup on Fox.

83
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 3: But France, I mean, the roster that they have is

84
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 3: incredible and I'm sure Nordo will agree with that, and

85
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 3: they're obviously one of the top ranked teams in the world.

86
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 3: They could have won, they came close to winning it

87
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 3: last time, and I just think that this is their

88
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 3: I mean, in BAFE and all these guys like, this

89
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 3: is their chance to win it, and I think they're going.

90
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 2: To get it done.

91
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 3: Obviously, Spain and there's some other top teams that are

92
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 3: going to have something to say about that.

93
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: But I just think I.

94
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 3: Feel like France is the most talented team in the

95
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 3: in the draw.

96
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 5: And I couldn't agree with you more, Chris Spain, you

97
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 5: nailed it.

98
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 4: So they have this eighteen year old Yamal.

99
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 5: He's absolutely insane and he's already kind of being compared

100
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 5: as the trajectory. He could be on the path of

101
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 5: Embape right. So the toughest thing to tell here, spain

102
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 5: most talented roster can ya mal be what Imbape was

103
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 5: two World Cups in two Cups ago when he won

104
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 5: it and he was nineteen, he was the energy bug,

105
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 5: the spark. And then you saw him four years ago

106
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,239
Speaker 5: in just this heavyweight battle with Messi in the final,

107
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 5: Argentina wins on penalties. The talent of that roster is unbelievable.

108
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 5: It feels like, oh, World Cup and we're gonna have

109
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 5: forty eight teams in the US and Mexico and Canada.

110
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 5: It's you know, ten teams could potentially win it. No,

111
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 5: only eight countries have only ever won it. And and

112
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 5: so it's it almost feels like you're you're compelled to

113
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 5: pick chalk, which France certainly is. But I'm with you, man,

114
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 5: I think it's France or Spain and the rest are

115
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 5: just gonna be fun fodder for the summertime.

116
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, Obviously, the US team this last

117
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 3: week or so hasn't been good. They're expected to lose

118
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 3: to Belgium and Portugal and those friendlies, but they haven't

119
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 3: looked good in those games. And you know, we just

120
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 3: really got to see if Christian Holistic can't kind of

121
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 3: come out of this slump. And obviously he's got several

122
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 3: months to do so. But if he can't come out

123
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 3: of this slump, I think he's going to be a

124
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 3: challenge for US to make the quarterfinals, which be a disaster,

125
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 3: I feel.

126
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 4: Man, I agree with you. You guys are on. You guys

127
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 4: are elite.

128
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: Diego Maridona mines only cal with that commentary I just heard.

129
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: Man.

130
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I still can't figure out who Bope plays for.

131
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: But the conundrum I have is what I prefer saying

132
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: them Bope or actually playing Bope. I always love that

133
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: one because that was really good. Guys, Chris Persard nine

134
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: to noon, NBA, You think Wemby is this year's NBA MVP,

135
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: and that would be over Joker and Don Chic, who

136
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: messed up his hamstring last night. If that's the case, why.

137
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 3: Well, Look, I love seeing history made and I love

138
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 3: seeing just remarkable historic type seats.

139
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: All right.

140
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 3: I was so excited when Tom Brady won his seventh

141
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 3: Super Bowl with a team outside of New England. The

142
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 3: only player you know more than any franchise. So I

143
00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 3: like things like that, and therefore I was love.

144
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 2: To see Wimby win it.

145
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 3: I mean, he's unlike anything we've ever seen. Obviously, I

146
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 3: think he could have a career that I.

147
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: Think Michael Jordan's the goat. I think Lebron's second.

148
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 3: If Wimby saves healthy, he could make that discussion irrelevant

149
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 3: and it could be for second place. I mean, he's

150
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 3: that talented and has that much potential.

151
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 2: But I have to be honest. I am an official voter.

152
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 3: As I said earlier, I try to keep everything objective

153
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:32,839
Speaker 3: and I do.

154
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 2: Right now.

155
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 3: Feel like Shay gilg just Alexander for Oklahoma City is

156
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 3: the MVP. And I feel that way because obviously his

157
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 3: numbers are great. He's second in the league and scoring,

158
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 3: but without his second best player, Jalen Williams for most

159
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 3: of the season. Williams missed about fifty games this year.

160
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 3: He still has Oklahoma City with the best record in

161
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 3: the league and blowing.

162
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 2: People out, and so I just think he has been

163
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: the MVP.

164
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 3: I do have Wemby's second, I have Jokish third and

165
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 3: Luca forth.

166
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 2: Right now, if somehow.

167
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 3: And I don't think it's gonna happen, but if somehow

168
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 3: San Antonio gets the number one seed over OKC, then

169
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 3: I would I believe I would vote for Winby. But

170
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 3: right now, with Shaye leading that charge without his second

171
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 3: best player, I think he's the MVP.

172
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,079
Speaker 4: Ce B Chris, do you like the Spurs to win

173
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 4: the NBA title?

174
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 2: I haven't made my official pick yet.

175
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 3: Right now, I'm kind of going back and forth between

176
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 3: OKC and San Antonio. Obviously, and I think Boston has

177
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 3: a shot, but I like the two teams.

178
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 2: In the West better.

179
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,119
Speaker 3: The only question, and this is no revelation with San Antonio,

180
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 3: is the lack of experience. We have never seen a

181
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 3: team with this much inexperience winning NBA championship except nineteen

182
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 3: seventy seven when the Portland Trail Blazers led by Bill

183
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 3: Walton did it. They're the youngest team ever to win

184
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 3: it before Okase last year, but they had less experience

185
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 3: than Okase had, and this team, they do have Harrison

186
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 3: Barnes in San Antonio, they do have de Aaron Fox

187
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 3: who have some experience, but the core the Stefane Castle,

188
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 3: obviously Winbay, Wimby and even their coach Mitch Johnson have

189
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 3: never been in the playoffs. So that is the big question.

190
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 2: Now.

191
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 3: Conventional wisdom says that they can't win the championship with

192
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 3: such an experience. But we do have to throw conventional

193
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 3: wisdom out to a large degree because conventional wisdom told

194
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 3: us we would never see a seven to sixth player

195
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 3: like winm beIN Yama doing the things he does. He

196
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 3: has better handled than some guards. He shoots it in

197
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 3: the mid range, kind of like a Kevin Durant. I

198
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 3: won't say quite that good, but close.

199
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: He's a very good three point shooter.

200
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 3: Obviously at the rim, he's unstoppable, and he's the best

201
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 3: defensive player I've ever seen. So he may just be

202
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 3: the type of guy that changes our thoughts on what

203
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 3: is conventional wisdom. And so I very much am giving

204
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 3: him a shot to win it all.

205
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: And they've beaten OKC three or four times this year,

206
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 1: five yeah, four out of five, thank you and OKC,

207
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: I mean in the NBA Cup or a couple of

208
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: those times really really brought it, so that should be

209
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 1: really good.

210
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 4: Chris Brussard f s.

211
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: One of the show is called First Things, First Football,

212
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: and then I want to talk about a rise with

213
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: the guys for a second. Our Minnesota Vikings have Kyler

214
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: Murray in the fall to get all speedy with Jefferson

215
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 1: and Addison. How do you think Kyler is going to

216
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 1: work out here?

217
00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 2: Well, first, I.

218
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,559
Speaker 3: Think that was a great move by the Viking as

219
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 3: far as the quarterbacks that were out there, he obviously

220
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 3: has a lot of potential and he's actually shown it,

221
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 3: you know, his first few years in Arizona, made a

222
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,599
Speaker 3: couple of Pro Bowls legitimately and looked.

223
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 2: Like he was going to be a star. But the

224
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 2: great thing about him is that he dumb.

225
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 3: If he works out, he could end up being your

226
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 3: quarterback for the next several years because he's still young

227
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 3: and maybe could be like a Sam Darnold type turnaround.

228
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 3: I think the only question, and I do think they'll

229
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 3: overcome this.

230
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 2: Obviously, Kevin O'Connell's.

231
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 3: Great with quarterbacks, but Kyler is a guy that you know,

232
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 3: likes to do things on his own, kind of play

233
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 3: Superman at times, and he's been successful with his legs

234
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 3: and sometimes even with his arm doing that. But I

235
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 3: think O'Connell's system is more This is not an insult,

236
00:12:58,400 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 3: but it's more paint by numbers.

237
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 2: You know, be on time, you know, throw it where

238
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be thrown. You know very you know,

239
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 2: just if.

240
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 3: You fit into that mold, you can have really good

241
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 3: success there.

242
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 2: I lie Darnold Kirk, Cousins, so on.

243
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 3: And so forth, and so I just think Kyler has

244
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 3: to make that mental adjustment where, look, I don't have

245
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 3: to be Superman on every play. Let me let the

246
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 3: offense work for me. Let me just get the ball

247
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 3: to my playmakers on the outside and let them do

248
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 3: the rest. And occasionally, when it's necessary he can try to,

249
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 3: you know, he can be superman and.

250
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 2: Use his talent.

251
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 3: I think Caleb Williams is kind of learning some of

252
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 3: the same stuff under Ben.

253
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:43,599
Speaker 2: Johnson in Chicago.

254
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 3: So if Kyler can make that adjustment, and he should

255
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 3: be able to, because I would hope he has been humble, right,

256
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 3: these last few.

257
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 2: Years have been terrible for him. Obviously Arizona is just

258
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 2: paying him to go away, and so you would think he's.

259
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 3: Been humbled and realized, Look, I gotta study more.

260
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 2: I gotta, you know, be in the classroom, so to speak.

261
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 3: I gotta have the right attitude, and I've got to

262
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,559
Speaker 3: be willing to make adjustments to my game.

263
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 2: This is a coach that obviously can.

264
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,719
Speaker 3: Do well with quarterbacks, So if he goes in there

265
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 3: with that attitude, I think not only could he have

266
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 3: some success this year, but he could end up being

267
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 3: possibly the Vikings quarterbacks going forward. And look, whenever you

268
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 3: guys under O'Connell have had good quarterback play, you've obviously

269
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 3: you know, been a factor in the NFC playoffs.

270
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 2: So I think that this could really be a good

271
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 2: year for the Vikings.

272
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 3: The division obviously is just a monster, but if Kyler

273
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 3: plays well, the Vikings could be right there with the

274
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 3: other teams in that division.

275
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: Chris, let's close with this Arise with the Guys the

276
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: yearly event and like like some friends the audience has

277
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 1: heard recent here nine to noon kfam Jason Romano from

278
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: Sports Spectrum, former NFL MVP rich Gannon, Chris is going

00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,680

Speaker 1: dot com, and we would love to see all of

282
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: you there, Chris, Why is sharing the gospel of Jesus

283
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: Christ important to you?

284
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 3: Well, one, he does command us to correct the great commission.

285
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 3: He told us to go make disciples, you know, and

286
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 3: teach them to follow his commandments.

287
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: And so that is a charge.

288
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 3: That we all as believers have, whether you're in full

289
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 3: time ministry or not. So that's one thing, but also

290
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 3: when you're you know, as a Christian, having experienced the

291
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 3: goodness of the Lord in my life, haven't seen how

292
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 3: He's turned my life around, transform me morally and men

293
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 3: in many other ways, and even just knowing through my

294
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 3: faith walk over these past few decades, I am obviously

295
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 3: God has blessed me with success in my life, in

296
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: my career, my family, life is great. But the thing

297
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 3: that makes enables me to fully enjoy that to the

298
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 3: maximum and to have peace of mind and joy in

299
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 3: my heart no matter what's going on outside is my

300
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 3: faith in Christ and my personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

301
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 2: And so you know, I live in I work, both

302
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 2: of us.

303
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 3: We work in a business where you see a lot

304
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 3: of people with great wealth, great success, great fame and fortune,

305
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 3: and yet who aren't fulfilled aren't happy, and what the

306
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 3: void that is in them is that lacking that relationship

307
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 3: with Christ. So I want to see people fulfill their potential.

308
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 3: I want to see people have an enjoyable life, and

309
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 3: I want to see families and individuals and communities transformed.

310
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 3: And I believe the way to do that, from my

311
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 3: own experience and just other people I know, is through

312
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 3: sharing the Gospel with people. And when people accept Jesus Christ,

313
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 3: all of that is laid out on the table for you.

314
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 3: And so that's really why my heart is so open

315
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 3: and desirous of.

316
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 2: Sharing the Gospels.

317
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,919

Speaker 1: dot com. Now, you guys just had a big summit

330
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn, New York, and it looked terrific when I

331
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: learned about it yesterday. What's the King Movement and why

332
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: is it important to you?

333
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you for bringing that up. It was. We

334
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 2: had our conference in March in Maryland.

335
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 3: Next year is March thirteenth and fourteenth in Brooklyn.

336
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 4: Oh, my fault, but that's okay.

337
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

338
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 3: We had Sean Porter, the former Wealthweight Champion there, among

339
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 3: a lot of other great guests. But King is a

340
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 3: national men's organization I started about fifteen years ago. It's

341
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 3: an acronym that stands for Knowledge, Inspiration, and nurture through God.

342
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 3: And essentially our goal is to help strengthen men in

343
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 3: their daily walks with Christ through faith, through fellowship, through training, teaching, encouragement,

344
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 3: support and accountability. And as I said, like, when you

345
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 3: are living your life for Christ, in a lot of cases,

346
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 3: you will be in the minority.

347
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 2: You know, obviously the world pushes a.

348
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 3: Lot of things that are contrary to live in a

349
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 3: Christian lifestyle, and so in the workplace and maybe even

350
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 3: in athletics. In most cases, you're gonna be around a

351
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 3: lot of people that may have a different world view

352
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 3: and different viewpoints and principles than you have. And so

353
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 3: it's important for us as Christians to be around like

354
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 3: minded men, men who are trying to live the same

355
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 3: lifestyle that we're living as Christians, men who will encourage

356
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 3: us in our faith walk rather than discourage us or

357
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 3: rather than try to get us to do things that.

358
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 2: You would be contrary to our Christian faith. So that's

359
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,439
Speaker 2: really what the King Movement is about.

360
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 3: It's kind of a discipleship program to help me and

361
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 3: grow in their faith, but also a brotherhood to support

362
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 3: men in their faith journey.

363
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: Chris, Happy Easter, my ma'am, and may God bless you

364
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: and your family. Can't wait to meet you in person

Speaker 4: Forward to seeing you likewise, See you, Bud.

370
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 1: Chris Brusard Nine to Noon back after this, Hey there,

371
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: welcome back to nine to Noon on this wonderful good

372
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: Friday and joining us now is high level reporter and tweeter,

373
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: and Adam Kaplan is so plugged into the NFL he

374
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: can't fit all of that steam into his brain. If

375
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 1: if you would like to follow va X as nine

376
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: to Noon does and many others do, it is at

377
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: Adam Kaplan at Adam Kaplan.

378
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 4: Hey there, what's going on? Brother?

379
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,440
Speaker 6: Yeah? Kaplins R. Yeah, good to talk to you, my friend. Yeah,

380
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 6: it's here. We are. We're about oh, just technically less

381
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 6: than three weeks away from the draft, looking forward to it.

382
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 4: What excites you about the draft?

383
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 6: I would tell you that the tight end position, it's

384
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 6: really the depth at certain positions. Now that your Vikings

385
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 6: don't need a tight end, but this is the best

386
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 6: tight end class probably last fifteen to twenty years, So

387
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 6: I like that. The edge rusher group is interesting. Your

388
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 6: vikings can always use some, but in my you know,

389
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 6: I do team needs for every single team all thirty two.

390
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 6: The good news is your Vikings could get a corner.

391
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 6: There are some really good corners for this draft.

392
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: Right and you know we're going to get into Kenyon

393
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 1: Sadik and some others coming up here momentarily. But when

394
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: you say this potentially is the best tight ends draft

395
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 1: in like the last fifteen years. That of course is

396
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: going to fly in the face at twenty twenty three

397
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 1: with Laporta, Kinkaid and Tucker Craft. So I mean that's

398
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: a pretty good that's lofty praise right there, Cappy.

399
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 6: Well, you've got Sadik, stours, Max Claire, rauphed, Michael Triggs

400
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 6: really underrated. Yep, justin Jolly's a guy that a lot

401
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,439
Speaker 6: of people like around the league. What it is is

402
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 6: Bo Kircher from Texas A and m There are a

403
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 6: lot of good mid level guys are going to go

404
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 6: anywhere from round three to five who have a good

405
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 6: chance to be a starter or outperform their draft position.

406
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 6: That's really the point. But it's really deep now. I

407
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 6: would tell you though, it's not everyone listening as a

408
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 6: Vikings fan. If your team needs a tight end, yeah,

409
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 6: the drop off after Kenyon Sadik is major. It's really yeah,

410
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, it's stars. The issue with him is blocking.

411
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 6: He's We actually did a great interview Andrew Decheko, who

412
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 6: worked for our company inside the Birds. It's hours last weekend.

413
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 6: You could if you follow me on x at Kaplan

414
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 6: NFL or inside Birds, Inside the Birds on X you

415
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 6: could find it. We tweeted the interview out. But he's

416
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 6: a very talent pass catcher, but he's not real why

417
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 6: he's not a wide body. So again, like the Vikings,

418
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 6: they're in position they don't need a tight end. But

419
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 6: if you're a team that needs one, there's a lot

420
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 6: of depth to this position.

421
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, my brother and I apologize too at Kaplan NFL.

422
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 1: At Kaplan NFL, I tripped out and said at Adam Kaplan,

423
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: that's inaccurate. At Kaplan NFL, have X mark the spot

424
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 1: with that follow all right, don Well, I look forward

425
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: to getting maybe more into that in a little bit,

426
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: but let's technically begin here.

427
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 4: Would you like to make a deal.

428
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 6: Jonathan Grinard, No, now.

429
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 4: Here's the deal.

430
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: You helped this radio show this good Friday nine to noon.

431
00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: You help right now with ten minutes of information and

432
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 1: steam and if you want, I will arrange for two

433
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: tickets to the Minnesota Timberwolves and Philadelphia seventy six Ers tonight.

434
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 4: What do you think, Cappy?

435
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 6: Oh? Can you do that? Are you serious?

436
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: I probably could get that done. You it's not the

437
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: spectrum anymore? What's it called.

438
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 6: No, it's it's you know, it's so funny. I can't

439
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 6: it's it's it's Comcast. I know that it's stick like

440
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 6: the Comcast something. CEO, keep going again.

441
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 4: I can help you with that if you want to

442
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 4: watch it.

443
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 6: If I don't go, I'll be watching. I'm a diehard

444
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 6: Sixers fans.

445
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 1: Well, the go bet Embiid, Joe l Embiid and Rudy Gobert.

446
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 1: That's worth the price of admission itself.

447
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 6: Right. The only problem is with Embiidie's got this mysterious illness.

448
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 6: He thought he could play two days ago. He was

449
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 6: not happy about it. The Sixers absolutely need this game.

450
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 6: They want to avoid the plan so that they need this.

451
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:49,399
Speaker 6: And by the way, the Wolf, the wolf loss of

452
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 6: the Sixers earlier, as you know in Minneapolis.

453
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Tyre Tyrese Maxi your guy. You're rookie from

454
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: Baylor vj Edgecombe. That guy's fantastic, he is.

455
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 6: The Sixers could sustain one piece and Paul George went

456
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 6: off against the lowly Washington Lizards. But yeah, it's Pharopus.

457
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 6: Sports is really interesting that you got the Phillies. Who

458
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 6: the fans are You're booing and they're out west now,

459
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 6: but they've got a couple of young kids that they

460
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 6: like and the Flyers they're trying to get that last playoffs.

461
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,919
Speaker 1: But rightway, all right, well, let's go Broad Street bullies,

462
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: let's go Bobby Clark, and let's go to this football question.

463
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 4: I'd bet I'm going to make a statement. Tell me

464
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 4: what you think.

465
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: I'd bet Kirk Cousins starts in Las Vegas next season.

466
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,959
Speaker 1: Would you take that action or do you agree with it?

467
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 6: And why I agree because the money that he's going

468
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 6: to get is super high in back of money. So

469
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 6: the way I understood it is he really felt and

470
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 6: still feels at thirty years old, that he could still

471
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 6: be a starting quarterback and you're going to the Rams

472
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 6: wanted him. He was not going to start. Stafford's Stafford's

473
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 6: a starter. There's no debate there where he goes to

474
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 6: the Raiders that And it's really interesting. Their brass is

475
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 6: going on record, especially Clinton WOBFP head coach who will

476
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 6: call the plays, and it's his offense that he envisions

477
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 6: a smart situation to keep Mendoza on the sidelines and

478
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 6: just wait till he's ready. Now, Kirk had a situation

479
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,959
Speaker 6: with Atlanta when he was shocked when they told him

480
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 6: that they were going to draft Michael Pennock's That's not

481
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 6: what he was thinking when he signed there and signed

482
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 6: that big deal. He didn't want that, and you know,

483
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 6: unfortunately he got hurt. But it's Kirk could still play,

484
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 6: There's no question about it. He showed that last season.

485
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 6: I would agree with you, he absolutely will start some games.

486
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,679
Speaker 1: I giggle when you when you were talking about that

487
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: Penis thing, Adham, because I'll just never forget the story

488
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: of Cousins driving to the Falcons draft party for an appearance,

489
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: had no idea they were taking Pennix. He heard it

490
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: on the radio right as he pulled into his spot.

491
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about discombobulated. I mean, you're not

492
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,479
Speaker 1: obligated to tell everybody everything you're going to do. But

493
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: I mean, if you sign in a new place and

494
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 1: then they take a quarterback in the top ten, I

495
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 1: mean I'd kind of give the veteran a nudge, wouldn't you.

496
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

497
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 6: And the thing is, and this is one of the

498
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 6: reasons why Terry Fono, the GM was fired. Think about that.

499
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 6: But Arthur Smith, the owner, signed off on it. This

500
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 6: structure to Kirk Cousins contract was so significant in terms

501
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 6: of fully guaranteed money at signing and the way that

502
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 6: the guarantees were structured he actually had. The first year

503
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 6: was fully guaranteed, the second year was fully guaranteed, and

504
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 6: then they put ten million in a fully guaranteed roster

505
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 6: bonus in year three. What they're telling you is we're

506
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 6: not playing the young quarterback for the first two seasons.

507
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 6: Well guess what, Yeah, that's not what they did. The

508
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 6: contract tells you that they won't, but they wound up

509
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 6: doing and it was just a bad job by the Falcons.

510
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,160
Speaker 6: No one involved in that should have ever done that deal.

511
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 6: That was bad and that's why they're starting over.

512
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: Well, well, speaking of that with Cousins in Vegas and rookies.

513
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: So I'm listening to Bruce Murray and our mutual friend

514
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 1: Charles Davis our NFL radio yesterday and they're talking about this,

515
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: and you wasn't. I guess he was playing the percentages

516
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks who are drafted first overall and how frequently

517
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: they start, kind of like they have to start. And

518
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: I actually look at it the other way, where if

519
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: you have a veteran quarterback who still has some juice

520
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: in the arm and twenty twenty one with Kubiak and

521
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins here that they were fantastic together in a

522
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 1: non playoff season. But if you don't, don't you think

523
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: it's probably best with a rookie quarterback, If you have

524
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: time to let that individual simmer, then absolutely take that time.

525
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, and this is a first year head coach. If

526
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 6: Tom Brady's obviously very involved in personnel, he knows because

527
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 6: he went through this though he was not a first

528
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 6: round pick, as you know. But I would harken back

529
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 6: to when you and I first knew each other in

530
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 6: around two thousand and two thousand and one. Clubs then

531
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 6: did not feel the pressure to play the quarterback like

532
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 6: they would just they would let nature take its course.

533
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 6: They wait. Teams don't wait anymore. As soon as they

534
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 6: think the guy's ready, the guy plays now. In this

535
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 6: situation because they know they are a total rebuild. They

536
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 6: have arguably the NFL's worst roster them and the Jets

537
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 6: are probably there ye with the NFL's worst roster. So

538
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 6: this is a turnaround program with a new head coach,

539
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 6: a first time head coach. They want to take this slow.

540
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 6: They need to build they don't have. They have like

541
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 6: very little talent around them. On offense, they have to

542
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 6: sort of semi rebuild their offensive line with the Raiders.

543
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 6: The receiver group the worst of the National Football League.

544
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 6: So on your point, why would you put them out

545
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 6: there until you help it in the quarterback?

546
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 4: Ay, no doubt.

547
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: I mean good starting points with gent and Bowers, but

548
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: you make excellent points with the rest of the group.

549
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: And this is Adam Kaplan, a high level reporter and

550
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: tweeter at Kaplan NFL go to the X side. He

551
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 1: does so many things for so many entities, and it's

552
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: all very informative and entertaining. You touched on it a

553
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: little bit out of the gate. But the Vikings at eighteen,

554
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: can you put a player there for us?

555
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 6: All right? So to me, this is you know, I

556
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 6: bill what's called a needsport for every team. I do

557
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 6: my own doing my own mock draft just because I have,

558
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 6: you know, I have to be on the air during

559
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 6: draft night, so I have to kind of know, Okay, okay,

560
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 6: what what does this team need? Now? What I tell

561
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 6: you what I would tell folks listening, So you'll you'll

562
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,840
Speaker 6: get if you do your own mock draft, you have

563
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 6: a better chance of getting it right than wrong. When

564
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,479
Speaker 6: you think it's always the draft is always about the future.

565
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 6: The team's that draft Jeff for the season, everybody's going

566
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 6: to get fired like you're just It never works when

567
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 6: you draft and you're just desperate to solve issues just

568
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 6: for the season. It's about the future. Well, let's face it.

569
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 6: Bill Polly in the Hall of Feam general manager told

570
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 6: me once that it's not about how many players you

571
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 6: have in a position, it's the quality of the player.

572
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 6: Could the Vikings line up right now? Sure at corner,

573
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 6: but James Pierre is a fourth corner. Isaiah Rogers He's

574
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 6: got very little guaranteed money in hear too, He's an

575
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 6: okay player. Murphy's a nice player. They need a big

576
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 6: time corner. They're not good enough there. They have to

577
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 6: address that position, the detackle position. The old guys are gone.

578
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 6: They need to rebuild that. I really like this offense now,

579
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 6: the quarterback. But you and I have not been together

580
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 6: since Kyler Mary signed, which I kind of knew was

581
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 6: going to happen about a month and a half ago.

582
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 6: That was the word around the league with him. I'm

583
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 6: pretty good. I know they have to figure out the

584
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 6: third receiver spot. That's you could get that in free agency.

585
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 6: I'm okay with the offense defensively, they need so many

586
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 6: holes here. And then the other thing is what are

587
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 6: they going to do with Jonathan Grenard because he's he

588
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 6: is really underpaid. That nineteen million a year is ridiculous

589
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 6: for a guy that talented.

590
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 1: A couple of things here, first and foremost, you know,

591
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 1: since Rodgers left the Covenant, Isaiah Rodgers is better than okay.

592
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not going to say he's a.

593
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 6: Nation player, but he's not a number one corner. Come

594
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 6: on that.

595
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 4: That could be fair.

596
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, he was putting some tough spots last year

597
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: and came through. And yet the Jonathan Grenard situation, Man,

598
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that up because it got hot

599
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 1: around here for a minute and it's kind of quieted

600
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: and personally, I'm hoping they don't trade him. I'm awesome,

601
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: awesome guy, but he's also extremely good at what he does.

602
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: So I mean, is there any steam there that Grenard

603
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: might get traded?

604
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 6: Well, here's the thing. They've got, Dallas Turner's got to play,

605
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 6: and they're a better team with Grenard what I always

606
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 6: tell people with these situations where it's not resolved, the

607
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 6: urgency to trade a player is really high. If you're

608
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 6: going to do it draft week, things just seem to

609
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 6: happen because you know it's your last chance to replace

610
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 6: that player. Now, if they trade Grenard, it's going to

611
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,719
Speaker 6: be Dallas Turner. Now, let's not forget Yeah, Van Kinklechurch's

612
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 6: thirty one in July. He's had a major injury history.

613
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 6: He's great for Brian Flores. Obviously they know each other

614
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 6: from the days in Miami. He's been a perfect fit,

615
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 6: perfect player, a ton of injuries. It's not going to

616
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 6: be easy to resolve this situation with Grenard because they

617
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 6: they if they do this, if they keep them and

618
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 6: then they redo the deal, you're doing it. You know,

619
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,959
Speaker 6: you're redoing it in the middle of his contract. So

620
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 6: it's you know, it's not teams don't like doing that,

621
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 6: but he is so underpaid it's ridiculous. But they need

622
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 6: more talent defenses that side of the football. I know

623
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 6: Mattellas has been a great story. I'm gonna argue with

624
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 6: you to the Cowsco home. They don't have a number

625
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 6: one corner.

626
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 4: You need one.

627
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, and they need help on their front now because

628
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 6: they've completely changed their front in terms of talent because

629
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 6: they're all gone. So, by the way, Eric Wilson's been

630
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 6: an incredible story. I am shocked that he's played as

631
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 6: well as he has when he was in Philly. Look,

632
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 6: you know, the first time around with the Vikings wasn't

633
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 6: very good, and then he revolved his career with the

634
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 6: Packers and he's done a nice job.

635
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

636
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: Now, Adam Kaplan, I had former Twins general manager of

637
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 1: Minnesota Twins general manager batt Levine yeah on the radio

638
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: recently to chat about his Rosters and Rings podcast, And

639
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: I know you join that podcast and maybe even quite frequently,

640
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: and I hadn't chatted with that in a couple of years.

641
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 4: How smart is thad Levine? Holy cow?

642
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 6: Well here's the thing I didn't know. So somehow I

643
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:23,319
Speaker 6: found it on Instagram a couple months ago, and there

644
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 6: the producer reached out to me. I wonn't know if

645
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 6: I wanted to be on. I go. Yeah. I love

646
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 6: this show. And I had no idea how closely he

647
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 6: follows the NFL. He really knows his stuff. He's really sharp,

648
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 6: big time. And the funny thing is he went to

649
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 6: college at Haverford College here in Philly. For some reason,

650
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,919
Speaker 6: there's chat Chad point of the sound. I think there's

651
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 6: been twelve general managers that went to Haverford College. I

652
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 6: don't understand. It's kind of weird, but he's really brilliant

653
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 6: and I really enjoyed being on that show Infected. We

654
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 6: were only do a half an hour to forty minutes,

655
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 6: woun up being an hour and a half, right crazy.

656
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, now that.

657
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: Brought up with me, that and that ten NFL coaches

658
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,800
Speaker 1: were being fired after the twenty twenty five season, and

659
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: he asked me why why I thought that happened.

660
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 4: So let me start here.

661
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: What's your take on what at times can be the

662
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: over amplified social media side of this, and then I'll

663
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: explain what I mean.

664
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 6: Well, if you're talking about the pressure to win or

665
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 6: do owners listen to to yeah, I mean it's I

666
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 6: know this, other reporters have talked about it. Woody Johnson,

667
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 6: the owner of the Jets, is very social media conscious.

668
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:40,479
Speaker 6: He sees what's out there. A lot's been written about this. Yeah,

669
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 6: there are some owners are that you know that you

670
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 6: won't know that their following. Well, he actually put his

671
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 6: name out there. There's some owners who are on X,

672
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 6: but they they're on our fake name and they see

673
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 6: what's out there. Yes, I think that's part of it.

674
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,399
Speaker 6: I think, in fact, I know some coordinators had extra

675
00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 6: pressure on them because the fan base goes after them

676
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,439
Speaker 6: on a ship that absolutely effense, right.

677
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And that's why I brought it up that way,

678
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 1: because like during the season, if you play the averages

679
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 1: over the course of time, I've noticed that head coaches

680
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: and like general managers that they're not looking at they're

681
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: not doom scrolling as people would say. Now, now, a

682
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 1: good media relations manager, head of communications, if somebody gets

683
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: taken to task, and you know, with somebody who's noteworthy,

684
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: they'll pull them to the side and be like, hey,

685
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: I know you're busy right now, but take a look

686
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 1: at this.

687
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 4: So and so wrote this. You just need to know this. Yes,

688
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 4: all right, but that's infrequent now.

689
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: But but the owners of teams, you know that they're

690
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,359
Speaker 1: gonna look at a lot, if not everything. They're gonna

691
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,800
Speaker 1: have friends and family members telling them about things that

692
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: they haven't seen on social media. And I think they

693
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 1: overamplify it, and I think that they get a little

694
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: trigger happy, and that led to ten coaches losing their jobs.

695
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 4: So that's why I brought it up.

696
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, look, it's we'll never know for sure

697
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 6: how much it played. There's no question that played a

698
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 6: part with Woodie Johnson. Based on what I've heard, it's

699
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 6: part of it. But yeah, it's really tough with social media.

700
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 6: But good ownership, good ownership ignores it. It's about having

701
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 6: ownership that doesn't interfere but wants to know what's going on,

702
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 6: and there's got to be communication. I remember, I just remember.

703
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,399
Speaker 6: I'll give you an example. So when Josh Harris took

704
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 6: over to be the Commander's owner, I remember a someone

705
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 6: who worked for him with the Sixers told me, because

706
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 6: I had asked this guy because I knew he worked

707
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 6: for him, said hey, what can you tell me about

708
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 6: Josh Harrison. I'm interested because you know, I do radio

709
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 6: in Washington. I need to know because he's he's really supportive,

710
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 6: but he loves sports. He you know, he grew up there.

711
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 6: He's going to want to know a lot about what's

712
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 6: going on from a day to day basis and their

713
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,840
Speaker 6: GM and people there have to know this, like they

714
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 6: better communicate well. For him or he's gonna have questions,

715
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 6: you know. So yeah, communication is important.

716
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, well laid out well a few quickies to close

717
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 1: here for at Kaplan NFL, He's Adam Kaplan, a quarter

718
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 1: century guest with a nine to noon or ten to one,

719
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 1: just for fun, Pa and dobb if if running back,

720
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:23,240
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Love is generate? Is a generational talent?

721
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 4: Like is okay? So you say he is?

722
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,400
Speaker 1: So say he's like Adrian Peterson. Does it make sense

723
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 1: for somebody to give a bunch to get him? And

724
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: and do you think, like you know, the Viking should

725
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 1: consider that to put to put that speed with Kyler

726
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,240
Speaker 1: Murray justin Jefferson and Jordan Edison.

727
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,919
Speaker 6: Well here's the problem in front of them, right, Yeah,

728
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 6: you always have to look at what's the quality of

729
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 6: this draft. I'm gonna give you a nice nugget and

730
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 6: if you have me on during draft week, you know

731
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 6: we could further explain this is I have to run

732
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 6: in a minute.

733
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 4: But that's a sense.

734
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 6: There are thirty two picks in the first round. No

735
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 6: NFL team puts thirty two first run grades. It's typically,

736
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 6: as I was told, anywhere from like nine or ten

737
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 6: to maybe twenty two to twenty four. So basically, if

738
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 6: you're picking a twenty five or later, that's really a

739
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 6: second round pick. If people can understand that, it's yes,

740
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 6: thirty two picks will be made, but this is not

741
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 6: a quality first round, which is why I brought this up.

742
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 6: So Love might be. To be honest with you, he

743
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 6: might be the best player in this draft. I'm just

744
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 6: telling you. So here's the problem with it. If you

745
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 6: want if you want to get Love and you're picking

746
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 6: the teams. To me, it really starts at number four

747
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 6: with the Titans Polish on the last year of his deal.

748
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,880
Speaker 6: You've got a new front off, You've got really a

749
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,800
Speaker 6: relatively new front office, the new coaching staff. The Giants

750
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 6: don't have their future start at running back. They can

751
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 6: get away with what they have. Washington absolutely needs an

752
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 6: answer for the future at running back. So yeah, there

753
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 6: are a lot of teams, unfortunately when you look at

754
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 6: it in front of them, that need a running back.

755
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 1: We'll close with this, Hey, go tea Wolves tonight, Dante

756
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: de Vincenzo shutting down ty Reese, Maxi and go Bear

Speaker 1: dunking on everything that Sixers basketball.

Speaker 6: It does I will be glued to the set watching

Speaker 5: tiny two. Now, if we're going off of the captain's

779
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 5: intel from yesterday, I guess I hadn't paid attention to

780
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 5: this recently. That was his fortieth goal Boldy, but it

781
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 5: was his second of the night. As you heard, he

782
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 5: scored his thirty ninth in the first period. Apparently that's

783
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 5: the first goal in five or six games the Wild

784
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 5: had scored at home in the first period, So he

785
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 5: didn't get things started eight and a half minutes in

786
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:46,280
Speaker 5: Boldy did before two straight from the visitors tied things

787
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 5: up with about four minutes left to go in the

788
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 5: first period. You heard the early one in the second

789
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,240
Speaker 5: from him, and then, of course, not to be denied,

790
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 5: Carill was very much a thrill in front of the

791
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 5: home fans.

792
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:58,120
Speaker 4: As a Wild Steel's capriso.

793
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 5: It's got a man wide open for pre so many

794
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 5: scores put a passing play, had the wild other first lead,

795
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 5: as the price sot tucks up.

796
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 4: He's forty end of the year, so you love seeing that.

797
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,400
Speaker 4: That made it three to two in the second period.

798
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 5: Hartman with a couple tallies in the third to pull

799
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 5: away for the home squad, Minnesota Wild five to two

800
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 5: over the Low League Canucks. Got a little harry there

801
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 5: towards the end of the first period and feeling like, well,

802
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 5: can we just put this hideous team away? Well, eventually

803
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 5: they did and it was Quinn Hughes playing against his

804
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 5: former team. He had an assist on one of the

805
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 5: late goals. You did get to see Zeve Bulliam and

806
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 5: Marco Rossi last night as well. Actually I think all

807
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 5: three played Liam Ogrin in the mix as well, So

808
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 5: a little bit of a homecoming for those guys, but

809
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 5: a two points, two point effort for the home team.

810
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,839
Speaker 5: I'll be albeit that after the three nothing win by

811
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 5: the Stars last night over Winnipeg. You could call it

812
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 5: potentially in vain, but they got the offense working in

813
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 5: front of the home crowd, so you can't.

814
00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 4: Argue with that.

815
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 1: And congratulations to beloved bus Gus. Buss got his one

816
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 1: hundred the victory last night, and he looked pretty good

817
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 1: when he needed to look good. Brought Brockbeslers fast. I'd

818
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 1: forgotten about that, and Ottawa is next on the entertainment docket.

819
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,759
Speaker 5: Thirty saves last night for Buss, so in the conversation

820
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 5: of what we want to see from him between the

821
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 5: pipes moving forward, we dig what we saw last night,

822
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 5: not digging the Wolves taking the loss last night at

823
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 5: Detroit one thirteen one o eight. So it was a

824
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 5: bit closer than it was, just less than a week

825
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 5: ago the Sleepy One at Target Center.

826
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 4: Anthony Edwards.

827
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,320
Speaker 5: I don't know if this was a late scratch or

828
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 5: it was expected, but Aunt not in the mix for

829
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 5: this one last night, so that put the onus on

830
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 5: Julius Randall, who did his thing twenty seven points on

831
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 5: the evening.

832
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 4: Iodasumu added nineteen.

833
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 5: But just trouble with this squad appears to be the

834
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 5: name of the game in this particular season. Had Duncan

835
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 5: Robinson doing his thing. He's hitting the three pointers again

836
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 5: like he used to do down in Miami. Oscer Thompson,

837
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,320
Speaker 5: that's Almen's twin brother. Are they twins or just brothers

838
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 5: twins yep Ouser Thompson was in the mix as well.

839
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 4: Dennis Jenkins.

840
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,840
Speaker 5: I don't know who Dannis Jenkins is saying, but twenty

841
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 5: six for him and he got himself to the line.

842
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 5: Jalen Duran You and I have talked off Mike about

843
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 5: him and how what happened Jalen duran As he had

844
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 5: twenty two and the big man also had fourteen boards

845
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 5: on the night. So that puts the Timberwolves squarely in

846
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 5: the sixth spot, which is interesting as we've been again

847
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 5: bouncing back and forth. It's like, all right, who do

848
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 5: you want to match up with in the first round

849
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 5: of the playoffs? You got Jokich and Jamal Murray. I

850
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 5: loved those matchups with the Nuggets and the Wolves are

851
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 5: a blast to watch, and.

852
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:46,840
Speaker 4: Thankfully the Wolves have been on the right side of

853
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 4: it recently.

854
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 5: But my goodness, with this hamstring injury to Luka Doncich

855
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 5: last night, that could potentially change the entire conversation of

856
00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 5: the currently three seeded Los Angeles Lakers if if is

857
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 5: on the shelf for an extended period of time.

858
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, the MRI takes place today.

859
00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:10,439
Speaker 1: OKC was killing the LA Lakers before don Chic went down,

860
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,280
Speaker 1: ended up winning the game by like forty three points.

861
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: So big MRI for Lake Show devotees today on Lucas

862
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 1: hamstring and the Detroit Pistons. If there's a tougher just

863
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: just mentally and physically tougher team in the NBA than them,

864
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 1: I need to see who it is. OKC in San

865
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 1: Antonio would enter that conversation, but man JB. Bickerstaff has

866
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 1: done an awesome job with the Motor City Pistons.

867
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 5: And then the final thing for you, the Wolves are

868
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:46,320
Speaker 5: not the Wolves, the Twins.

869
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 4: Excuse me.

870
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 5: They blow out the Royals yesterday in the Getaway or

871
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 5: come Home game, the finale in Kansas City, and it's
