Speaker 2: In the Fan, it's time for Vikings Come, brought to
Speaker 2: you by Miller Lyte. Now here's your host of Vikings
Speaker 2: Country from KFAN and the Vikings Radio Network.
Speaker 3: Mus Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Vikings Country. Here we
Speaker 3: are Blaine, all in Blaine, Ah. We're hanging out here
Speaker 3: and our special guest is Andrew Depaula and Andrew. This
Speaker 3: is a first. I've been doing this for thirty years.
Speaker 3: Fifteen years of doing Vikings Country. We've never had to
Speaker 3: stand outside and sit here with everybody else that's having
Speaker 3: heaters outside of blame rock Ball.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Well, I never thought I'd have to say this to you,
Speaker 5: but I'm glad to be your first.
Speaker 3: I appreciate that our fine folks at Miller Lite, our
Speaker 3: official Viking sponsors of Vikings Country. This is gonna just
Speaker 3: be absolutely weird. We are literally sitting right outside the
Speaker 3: door and we're sitting there hanging out with everybody that's
Speaker 3: just pulling darts. We're sitting right by the garbage can
Speaker 3: that has that top, you know, where you can bump out.
Speaker 6: It's just ridiculous here on Boxing Day. Thank you for
Speaker 6: hanging out with us on Boxing Day.
Speaker 4: Thank you for having me.
Speaker 6: Do you even know what Boxing Day is?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: I looked it up because it was kind of bugging
Speaker 3: me because I knew it was like a Canadian thing.
Speaker 3: But apparently Boxing Day is a holiday celebrated after Christmas Day.
Speaker 3: Originally it was a holiday to give gifts to people
Speaker 3: in need, but today Boxing Day it forms a part
Speaker 3: of Christmas celebrations, with many people choosing to take advantage
Speaker 3: of Boxing Day sales.
Speaker 6: Are you a big Boxing Day Hills kind of guy?
Speaker 5: No, No, I haven't been. I didn't even know that
Speaker 5: was the thing.
Speaker 6: Do you do like the Black Friday thing?
Speaker 3: And I'm like, are you buying anything or is it
Speaker 3: just Amy your wife?
Speaker 5: It's my wife, Yeah, yeah, she's the one buying everything.
Speaker 5: I used to be big in than the Black Friday.
Speaker 5: I used to go out and check out the crowds
Speaker 5: and see what the deals were like.
Speaker 4: But not anymore.
Speaker 3: You never like tent it out like early on, because
Speaker 3: I know at one point you worked at best Buy. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you probably saw those guys that would actually tent out
Speaker 3: just going okay, I'm gonna get myself a fifty five
Speaker 3: inch plasma.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, And to be honest with you, I'm pretty
Speaker 5: sure that ruined it for me.
Speaker 4: All Right.
Speaker 3: So you worked as a bartender. So you finished school
Speaker 3: at Rutgers yep, in twenty ten.
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 3: Then between that in twenty fourteen, before or you actually
Speaker 3: got I think it was with Tampa Bay, correct, correct, Ye,
Speaker 3: before you made a team, you were not only working
Speaker 3: at your family's pub, but also at best Buyas I
Speaker 3: mentioned the family pub, is.
Speaker 6: It still a thing?
Speaker 4: Still a thing? Yep? Oh nice yep.
Speaker 3: And then as we're sitting here at a bar and
Speaker 3: bowling alley, what is the absolute worst drink anyone could order?
Speaker 3: When it comes to you being a bartender because I
Speaker 3: know I'm the one that has.
Speaker 6: Probably ordered this before.
Speaker 4: Gosh, the worst drink anyone can order.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean something that doesn't have the alcohol named
Speaker 5: in it, because I don't know.
Speaker 4: I don't know how to make that.
Speaker 6: I'm I'm a frozen dacre guy.
Speaker 3: And you could just watch the shoulders drop of the
Speaker 3: bartender going.
Speaker 6: You're that jackass. That's not that's not great. What's your
Speaker 6: most famous drink? What do you did you create anything?
Speaker 4: No? No, no, no no.
Speaker 5: I created the giveaway because I don't know what it is,
Speaker 5: and so.
Speaker 4: Here you go, it's on the house.
Speaker 3: Well then now also not only do your parents your
Speaker 3: dad still owns the pub, but then also you've started
Speaker 3: up your own company there with the bagels.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we started the bagel shop beginning of this year,
Speaker 5: did construction on it last year, got that going.
Speaker 4: It's just been awesome. It's been a lot of fun.
Speaker 5: It's been a learning process for sure, but it's been
Speaker 5: really cool to see like our local community kind of
Speaker 5: take to it and just kind of take it as
Speaker 5: their own and adopt it.
Speaker 4: So it's been fun. You live on an island, right, technically, yes,
Speaker 4: gol Ken island y.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and so that's why you're like, well, we don't
Speaker 3: have any bagels here show.
Speaker 5: So the closest bagels shop kind of like what we have,
Speaker 5: is across the Chesapeake Bay. And so if you live
Speaker 5: on the island, you just despise crossing the bridge. It's
Speaker 5: just not it's not fun. There's a lot of traffic.
Speaker 5: You never know what's gonna happen when you get over there.
Speaker 5: So anything you can do on the island or on
Speaker 5: that side of the bridge, you try to get it
Speaker 5: done over there.
Speaker 4: And there wasn't really good bagel shop. Decided to make one.
Speaker 3: When I'm getting ready for Vikings Country, I get a
Speaker 3: little on the creepy side. I you know, like Stockerish.
Speaker 3: I realize that you guys steam your bagels rather than
Speaker 3: others that like boil the Bengals.
Speaker 6: What's the difference in that?
Speaker 4: Not a huge difference.
Speaker 5: So when you boil them, you literally drop them in
Speaker 5: a vat of boiling water.
Speaker 4: They sink to the bottom, and then when they.
Speaker 5: Rise after about fifty sixty seconds, you scoop them, put
Speaker 5: them on the baking train, and you pop them in
Speaker 5: an oven. Ours a similar process, except the first three minutes,
Speaker 5: they're steamed, and then the steam shuts off, and then
Speaker 5: they're baked for another nine to ten minutes, depending on
Speaker 5: how many racks you have in there.
Speaker 6: We are literally Vikings Country with Miller Lyte. Outside of
Speaker 6: blamed for Paul.
Speaker 3: We're standing out here with jackets on hands and pockets,
Speaker 3: hanging out with our smoking friends chess outside the doors here,
Speaker 3: which it is awesome. Andrew Depaula is my guess number
Speaker 3: forty two, of course, the long snapper. At what point
Speaker 3: in your life does one realize, you know what, I
Speaker 3: could probably throw this thing between my legs and actually
Speaker 3: be great at it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so funny enough.
Speaker 5: When I was younger, it was something my dad could do,
Speaker 5: And to be honest with you, I didn't know it
Speaker 5: was a football move technique.
Speaker 4: Like I thought it was just a fun party trick.
Speaker 6: Dad's just being goofy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's just been ripped in between his legs.
Speaker 5: So I could always throw a football, I guess from
Speaker 5: baseball and whatnot. But you know, I decided to go,
Speaker 5: you know, hey, let me just chuck this thing between
Speaker 5: my legs like my dad does. And then it was
Speaker 5: a skill I turned into in college.
Speaker 4: I was a backup.
Speaker 5: I was the emergency guy until I had to be
Speaker 5: the starter my final year of college and just worked
Speaker 5: out that I was good enough to take it to
Speaker 5: the NFL.
Speaker 3: Now, this show, Vikings Country has a long history of
Speaker 3: long snappers.
Speaker 6: Being on the show.
Speaker 3: Legendary and ridiculous superstar Mike Morris has been on the
Speaker 3: show multiple times. Colin Leffler, which, by the way, my
Speaker 3: wife got lost in his eyes while she was dancing
Speaker 3: with him at Jared All. It was a weird situation
Speaker 3: and I never thought i'd get her back. And Kevin
Speaker 3: McDermott on here as well. But it's so much fun.
Speaker 3: I love what you guys do. And how like the
Speaker 3: science of long snapping really is. People don't understand, you know,
Speaker 3: how many rotations are going to go between a snap
Speaker 3: for a punt versus a snap for you know, a
Speaker 3: feel goal.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean there's a lot that goes into it.
Speaker 5: It's a little, you know, tiny little nuances that help
Speaker 5: make your job or help do your job better. And
Speaker 5: the more you understand it, just like anything else, the
Speaker 5: better you can be at it.
Speaker 3: All Right, So how about this, I loved your Pro
Speaker 3: Bowl video.
Speaker 6: Okay, so I loved it, and we're here, We're here
Speaker 6: at a bowling alley.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I loved it because you go out and
Speaker 3: I saw it was a house ball twelve ouncer I
Speaker 3: saw on that, yeah, or twelve pound or whatever it is,
Speaker 3: and I saw that you were throwing that thing. And
Speaker 3: what I loved about it in the video is that
Speaker 3: you actually threw a little curve on it. Now, I
Speaker 3: will say you went on the Brooklyn side, and all
Speaker 3: bowlers know that, Oh you liked your Brooklyn more than
Speaker 3: on the Pocket side, and you knocked them all down.
Speaker 6: How many takes did that take?
Speaker 4: That actually is funny. It it takes.
Speaker 5: And I threw four strikes, really, yeah, and it was
Speaker 5: funny enough that one was the only one that I
Speaker 5: went back door. The other ones were in the pocket,
Speaker 5: so for some reason he used that one.
Speaker 4: But it was great. There's a lot of fun putting
Speaker 4: that together.
Speaker 3: You have a background in bowling, because honestly, when I
Speaker 3: saw you actually throw that thing out and then curve
Speaker 3: it out, I'm like, Okay, he's done this before.
Speaker 5: This might surprise some purists, but I'm actually a straight
Speaker 5: ball bowler.
Speaker 6: Yeah, oh too.
Speaker 5: I had to put the curve on it for the
Speaker 5: for the video they requested. But starting in high school,
Speaker 5: close buddy of mine, we would try to go bowling
Speaker 5: like once every two weeks, just have like a little
Speaker 5: competition going. We continued it through college when we both
Speaker 5: were back home on break and actually I just talked
Speaker 5: to him the other day.
Speaker 4: We're trying to get it fired up again.
Speaker 3: But your ninth season in the NFL has a long snapper,
Speaker 3: which I absolutely love. I also love the fact that
Speaker 3: you were really supporting all your teammates, not only yourself,
Speaker 3: but you know with the Pro Bowl.
Speaker 6: You're a pro bowler. Dude, you went to the Pro Bowl.
Speaker 3: How sweet is that there's only thirty two long snappers.
Speaker 6: You went to the Pro Bowl.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was cool. It was really cool.
Speaker 5: It was quite an experience something I'll remember forever. Cool
Speaker 5: part was I got to bring, you know, my two
Speaker 5: oldest my daughter and my son. They got to share
Speaker 5: in it with us. I got to get some pictures
Speaker 5: with them on the field, so that'll be something I
Speaker 5: can always look back on and show them and be like, hey,
Speaker 5: you know you, Oh that was really cool.
Speaker 3: Let's go through these somewhat quickly here, because your other
Speaker 3: teammates that you were also promoting to try to get
Speaker 3: into the Pro Bowl here.
Speaker 6: CJ. Ham I mean what I mean, quality human being.
Speaker 3: Obviously, Minnesota, we absolutely love the Hammer, but CJ.
Speaker 4: Hamm he's one of I mean, he's one of the
Speaker 4: best guys.
Speaker 5: I mean, he's so down to earth, he's so pure,
Speaker 5: and he's just such a great, great football player.
Speaker 4: He's so smart. He knows his job, he knows his role.
Speaker 5: He studies the playbook, I mean every day, studies what
Speaker 5: he has to do. He helps bring people along, he
Speaker 5: helps make people better. He's a coach on the field.
Speaker 5: I mean, that's why he's one of our captains. And
Speaker 5: he's just an amazing, amazing human being. And he's also
Speaker 5: a really good football player.
Speaker 3: Josh Mattelus, I mean he is a switch Army or
Speaker 3: Swiss Army knife for the defense and obviously you know
Speaker 3: him especially with Special Teams and how much he meant
Speaker 3: for everybody there. But Josh vintell Us.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean he's he's such a great player. Again,
Speaker 5: you know, it was such a loss to the Special
Speaker 5: Teams to lose him, you know, I mean, I know
Speaker 5: he's been bawling and playing his heart out on defense,
Speaker 5: and he's been doing amazing, such a great job. But
Speaker 5: he was such a player and a specimen on special teams,
Speaker 5: you could plug him in anywhere and we wouldn't have
Speaker 5: to worry about him. We could be like, Okay, go
Speaker 5: to wing, go to left guard. I mean, he got
Speaker 5: she probably could be even returned to the ball if we
Speaker 5: asked him too. So, I mean, you know, losing him
Speaker 5: on special teams was a big blow, but I mean
Speaker 5: he's been making such an impact on defense it kind
Speaker 5: of evens itself out.
Speaker 3: Andrew Andrew de Paula. Sorry, I'm sitting out here and
Speaker 3: I'm catching some of that. I'm wafted some of that
Speaker 3: smoke as we're sitting outside Blainbrook Ball here with Miller
Speaker 3: lytton Vikings Country. As we continue on Harrison Smith. I mean,
Speaker 3: what do you say about a guy who is just
Speaker 3: a constanmate, consummate pro and just one of the best
Speaker 3: leaders in the entire locker room.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think I can say too much that
Speaker 5: hasn't already been said about that man. I mean, he
Speaker 5: leads by example. He's been doing it for so long
Speaker 5: and at such a high level. You know, he's really
Speaker 5: the person, the guy that a lot of guys will
Speaker 5: look to in certain situations be like, Okay, how's he
Speaker 5: doing it?
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 5: I want to emulate him. I want to do it
Speaker 5: like him. Even I do the same thing, you know,
Speaker 5: I look at him and be like, Okay, how's he
Speaker 5: doing it?
Speaker 4: All right? I want to be like that guy, because when.
Speaker 5: You've had success for as long as he has, I
Speaker 5: think you want to try and do a thing he does.
Speaker 3: How about TJ Howkinson, who we don't know if he's
Speaker 3: gonna be able to play the rest of this year,
Speaker 3: But you also are listed as a tight end. So
Speaker 3: is there is there a chance to me? Not only
Speaker 3: TJ's had a tremendous year and definitely is should be,
Speaker 3: you know, in the Pro Bowl. But do you feel
Speaker 3: that there's a chance that you'll be going out?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 5: No, rout, No, No, I think those days are long
Speaker 5: behind me.
Speaker 3: I mean, well, yeah, I'm gonna ask you later about
Speaker 3: what it's like to be in the team room and
Speaker 3: stuff like that.
Speaker 6: We have more coming up on the way.

Speaker 2: Now here's your host of Vikings Country from KFAN and
Speaker 2: the Vikings Radio Network.
Speaker 4: Muss.
Speaker 3: Here we are once again standing outside with a bunch
Speaker 3: of smokers, plain Brook Bowl, Miller Lite and Vikings Country
Speaker 3: is my guest number forty two, and I appreciate the
Speaker 3: cold with you.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 3: We're saying that we're just parking lot and this is
Speaker 3: tailgating is basically what we're doing.
Speaker 4: This feels good. I like it.
Speaker 3: I appreciate it that you came out and hung out
Speaker 3: with us. Okay, gotta ask you this before we get
Speaker 3: into the five typically stupid Vikings Country questions. This season
Speaker 3: is almost kind of like last season where you get
Speaker 3: to the end of a game and you go, what
Speaker 3: the hell happened?
Speaker 6: How did that happen? It's such a.
Speaker 5: Change from last season to this season. Yeah, yeah, it's
Speaker 5: a little different, little different. We were on the better
Speaker 5: end of some of those games last year, and this year,
Speaker 5: you know, we're just not really edging out the ones
Speaker 5: that we did last year. So you know, all we
Speaker 5: can do is go back to work and hopefully not
Speaker 5: get in those situations and just close them out.
Speaker 6: Earlier, we just got done with Christmas.
Speaker 3: Here this is Boxing day of course, the Special Teams room.
Speaker 6: So what did you get Greg, Joseph and Ryan Wright
Speaker 6: for Christmas?
Speaker 5: I didn't get them anything. We actually we do like
Speaker 5: a white elephant gift. So there's a bunch of us
Speaker 5: that will come in together and we'll buy a gift.
Speaker 5: You know, there's a certain minimum on it. We'll put
Speaker 5: it in the middle, wrapped up, not knowing who's who's.
Speaker 5: Then you go, first person goes, the next person can
Speaker 5: steal or pick a gift.
Speaker 4: You know that kind of game. So we did that.
Speaker 4: There was probably about like twenty of us that did
Speaker 4: it this year. What did you end up with?
Speaker 5: I ended up with You ever heard like the ray
Speaker 5: Ban smart glasses? Yes, okay, I ended up with those.
Speaker 6: Oh oh that's a white elephant. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Now you got to figure out how to work the things.
Speaker 4: I don't know what's going on.
Speaker 3: I just you have to ask your wife, Amy, Amy,
Speaker 3: how do I do this?
Speaker 6: What's going on. That's way, babe, babe, babe.
Speaker 3: The Power Trip guys meets Austin and Chris Hockey and
Speaker 3: Corey Cove. They have been going on and on and
Speaker 3: on about you're at the plate at bat prowess at
Speaker 3: Adam Thielen's charity softball game, continuously going yard. They're like,
Speaker 3: you have no idea this guy Andrew just was knocking
Speaker 3: him out, tater after tater.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was fun. It was fun.
Speaker 5: I played baseball in high school, enjoyed it, really enjoyed it, and.
Speaker 4: I guess I still got a little bit left in me.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 3: All right, Andrew, let's talk about fake because I know
Speaker 3: you've had a couple of fakes in your career as
Speaker 3: a long snapper. But against the Broncos, I mean that
Speaker 3: direct snap to ty Chandler goes for thirty one yards,
Speaker 3: gets the first down. I mean that could not be
Speaker 3: easy because now you're throwing it through the wickets normally,
Speaker 3: but now all of a sudden you gotta veer that thing.
Speaker 6: How hard is that to actually do that?
Speaker 5: I wish I could say it's hard. I want to
Speaker 5: tell you guys, it's it's really hard. But it's actually
Speaker 5: not that bad, you know. I mean, as long as
Speaker 5: you get the angle right and you know, tie, there
Speaker 5: we go.
Speaker 4: As long as tie is in the right place.
Speaker 5: Uh you know, I just try to give it to
Speaker 5: him in the right spot where he doesn't have to
Speaker 5: come back or stop. He can catch it clean and
Speaker 5: just kind of go make it quick.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Again, We're here at Blainbrook Bowl with Piller Life, the
Speaker 3: official beer sponsor of the Minnesota Vikings at Vikings Country,
Speaker 3: and Andrew and I are literally standing right outside the door.
Speaker 3: We're in the parking lot. We're hanging out with a
Speaker 3: bunch of fue smokers that are over here, and then
Speaker 3: somebody there I swear togain.
Speaker 6: I just wanted to lock it. Oh there they go again. Okay,
Speaker 6: stop that all right?
Speaker 3: Here we go five typically stupid Vikings Country questions.
Speaker 6: Number one, Are you ready for this?
Speaker 4: Yep?
Speaker 3: How pissed off are you that he paid for that
Speaker 3: snow removal service this year? Very Yeah, because you guys
Speaker 3: are in a new place we are yep.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're in a single family home now with the
Speaker 5: three kids. And uh yeah, I was like I told
Speaker 5: the company, Hey, look, I need to shoveled and plowed
Speaker 5: by this time because I need to be out by
Speaker 5: this time to get to work.
Speaker 4: And I paid a premium and not using it.
Speaker 3: So yeah, we're all feeling that pain. And this was
Speaker 3: my first year. It was like, fine, I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 6: This sucks. Do you think this is number two?
Speaker 3: Do you think it's Taylor Swift's fault that the Chiefs
Speaker 3: are falling apart?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 5: No, I'm not gonna blame Portella for their struggles.
Speaker 2: Are you?
Speaker 4: Are you swifty?
Speaker 5: I do enjoy your music. I don't know if that
Speaker 5: makes me swifty or not, but I think she's got
Speaker 5: some good songs. Yeah, I think she's done.
Speaker 6: He did you and Amy go and see her at
Speaker 6: us Bank? Uh?
Speaker 4: No? When when was she?
Speaker 6: Oh she was just here recently.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
Speaker 3: But you know in the off season you're spending more
Speaker 3: time hanging back home because you got you got bagels
Speaker 3: to make.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yep.
Speaker 3: Number three of our five typically stupid Vikings country questions.
Speaker 3: Do you believe Fargo Season five is the best season
Speaker 3: since Season one and two?
Speaker 5: It's tough to be season one for me personally. I
Speaker 5: was a big Season one guy. I enjoyed season two,
Speaker 5: but for me season one was it? So yeah, I
Speaker 5: can't No, I don't believe that.
Speaker 3: Is there a difference between shows that you watch with
Speaker 3: you know, Ryan Wright and you know Greg Joseph and
Speaker 3: then your wife Amy that you talk about you know
Speaker 3: or you can't wait after you've watched and then talk
Speaker 3: about Is there a difference between the two or are
Speaker 3: they similar?
Speaker 5: Well, it's just funny because you know, I'm thirty six,
Speaker 5: Ryan Wright is twenty three.
Speaker 4: That's a huge age gap.
Speaker 5: So the things that he enjoys and he likes aren't
Speaker 5: necessarily what I enjoy what I like, So yeah, I mean,
Speaker 5: there's just a difference there in shows that we enjoy.
Speaker 5: And it's just nice to have my wife who's closer
Speaker 5: to me in age and we can kind of enjoy
Speaker 5: the same stuff. High school sweethearts, right we were?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh that's awesome, man, I love that. And now
Speaker 3: three three kids? Oh, how was Christmas?
Speaker 6: Awesome?
Speaker 5: Chaos, hectic? I'm still putting things together the way it's.
Speaker 3: Supposed to be, right, Yeah, Andrew Depaula is my guest
Speaker 3: here and we are in the middle of five typically
Speaker 3: stupid Vikings country questions. All right, next one, how much
Speaker 3: film do you actually watch.
Speaker 5: Oh that's a great question. Gosh, how can I give
Speaker 5: you this answer?
Speaker 4: I usually watch.
Speaker 5: Anywhere from I would say about an hour a day.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, okay, so no, no, is it more
Speaker 3: like on punt coverage or is it.
Speaker 6: I mean field goal.
Speaker 4: Pat Most of it is their punt rush team.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And I will watch a tiny bit of their field
Speaker 5: goal rush team just to kind of get some tips.
Speaker 5: Some things they do with their feet, different formations. Maybe
Speaker 5: they like to run something different out of it, whether
Speaker 5: they cross my face or shoot the a gap, But
Speaker 5: not as much as punt rush I watched. Probably majority
Speaker 5: of my tape is their punt rush team.
Speaker 3: Last one for you here on the five typically stupid
Speaker 3: Vikings questions.
Speaker 6: Grew up in Maryland, became a Ravens fan.
Speaker 3: Okay, this forty nine Ers game thirty three to nineteen
Speaker 3: rock Party with four interceptions may have taken him out
Speaker 3: of the MVP conversation there altogether. But my goodness, the
