We got to back 15 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: off because we sound ridiculous. No, no, no, no, we 16 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,959 Speaker 1: are all gonna double down on the fact that we 17 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: were the better team and three on three stinks and 18 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: we didn't really lose the gold medal because we were 19 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: in the better And I'm like, okay, well maybe they'll stop. No, no, no, no, no, 20 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna say it. Coach is going to weigh in 21 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: on it. One of their best players are going to 22 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: weigh in on it. No, no, we're gonna go down 23 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: and say, oh, it's like this loss didn't happen. Yeah, sorry, 24 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: I saw the scoreboard. 25 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: It happened. 26 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: Well. 27 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're only lying to yourself in the process, 28 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 3: right the oldest stanza, you're not lying if you believe 29 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 3: it's true. So if any of that point A, B, C, D, 30 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 3: all the stuff you just laid out is true, then 31 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: the Canadians and the Canadian players can convince himself of that. 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: The only thing I would agree with that I do 33 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 3: not like three on three. We've talked about that. But 34 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 3: in the end, USA, USA, So go make a play, right, 35 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 3: there's your opportunity. 36 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: You've got some of the. 37 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 3: Greatest collection of talent ever put on ice together. Go 38 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: find your goal, Go beat the goalie man and told 39 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 3: you Econo McDavid blows, which. 40 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's that kind of thinking of all. 41 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 3: And now I do have to rewind and hit the 42 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 3: ree onund button for us back to Friday, were you 43 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 3: able to pull off her. I'm going to mute everything 44 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 3: and not actually get up on time. 45 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: I got up, I got up a little bit later. 46 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 1: I got up, probably around six thirty or seven. We 47 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 1: take the game. So because I went with six thirty seven, 48 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, ge know, I'm up. I'm gonna go watch 49 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: a game now, right, because my plan was we're gonna 50 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: wake up at like eight eight thirty, watch a game, 51 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: and go back. And I was like, no, I'm kinda up, 52 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: and Pam was like, I'm kind of up. So okay. 53 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: So it was good because you're actually almost able to 54 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: catch up because you know, you can go between periods 55 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: and everything else, and and with not worrying about so 56 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: many commercials the game, the game goes a little bit faster, 57 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: so I was able to watch a little bit on 58 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: I think I probably I probably got to the overtime 59 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: and got to Hughes's goal maybe about forty five minutes 60 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: after it happened in real time. So I was okay 61 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: because I one thing is said, I said, none of 62 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: us turning our phones on. We're gonna get up, we're 63 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 1: gonna have breakfast, we're gonna watch a game. And I 64 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: said it was it was ever come through? Uh no, 65 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: no they didn't. I blocked you when you told me 66 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,839 Speaker 1: Friday night, I'm gonna send you twenty five tech Sunday morning. 67 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: I said, yeah, Pam, how do I block somebody on 68 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: my fund? Ive ever done that before? How do I? 69 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 1: But who do you want to block? Harmon? 70 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 4: Why? 71 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: What did you do? Just trust me, I gotta block. 72 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: I got a block. This one just over the top 73 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: of the proverbial mountain. Yeah, I mean, this is so 74 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: great that Canada just can't cope with the fact they 75 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: lost the gold medal game in hockey, right, And let's 76 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: look at it from all the different arguments Canada has had. 77 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: The last couple we'll get to we'll get to Jack 78 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: Hughes's smile and the teeth and everything. But just the 79 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: meltdown of Canada is so awesome, right. Number one, let's 80 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: deal with Nathan McKinnon, right, one of Canada's best players, 81 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: who said after the game yesterday, we were the better team. Right, 82 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: we were the better team? Right now? This is one 83 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: of Avalanche. I mean, look, Avalanche great this year. Mckennon's 84 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: always been one of the best players, playing in the 85 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: top line with McDavid and Celebrini. Uh, we were the 86 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: better team. Okay, here's the number one. Best team doesn't 87 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: always win. Uh, you want to say we were the 88 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: best team. Yeah, on paper, you guys were the best team, 89 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: you guys, but you weren't the best yesterday. And you 90 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: know how I know this because I watched the United 91 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: States score in overtime and win. I didn't have to 92 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: wait for the French judge to chalk and baits the 93 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: way and go, well, I have to I have to 94 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: look at the way Canada played. You know, clearly offensively 95 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: they played better than the United States, so I have 96 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: to vote them better. Oh, we played three periods and 97 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: the scoreboard doesn't matter. We get voted. No scoreboard tells 98 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: me who won. And I saw the United States two, 99 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: Canada one. That's how I know who the better team was. Well, 100 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: I think part of it. And also they were presented 101 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: with their plushy first. Yeah, well I will say the plushy. 102 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 3: That's the McKinnon reaction, among the reactions and anything in 103 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: your life you thought the Canadian women were salty. 104 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: Take it to the. 105 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 3: Next level, Canadian men. Uh And the still shot of 106 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 3: you can see his heart break right there. 107 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: It was the Ralph Wigham Chow Choose Me episode for that. 108 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 3: But yeah, and on any given Sunday, and they were 109 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 3: a eight favorite minus one twenty two, which is the 110 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 3: implied odds of fifty five percent win going into the game. 111 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: And if we simulated on a computer a thousand times, 112 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 3: they might win nine hundred and. 113 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: Fifty of them. I don't know. We played on ten times, 114 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: they might win nine. But not tonight, but not not 115 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: at night exactly. That's it. 116 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 3: You still have to go out on the ice and 117 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 3: play the game, and play it as it is. 118 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: Everybody understood the rules of overtime. 119 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 3: Nobody's surprised if this wasn't the NFL thing of years ago, 120 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 3: where wait what happens? 121 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 4: Oh they scored? 122 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: We lost? 123 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 2: Oh? 124 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: Hello? And and the thing is looking say, okay, we 125 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: were the better team right before we get to the overtime. 126 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: We were the better team with the better team. Well, he 127 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: does have a point. Yeah, they were the best, the 128 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: better team. They just didn't have our goalie. No, and 129 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: they will. And I know you were better because again 130 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: I saw the scoreboard two to one, all right, they 131 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: had our goal back. The thing that's the thing is 132 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: that you want to say you are the better team, 133 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: who was the best player on the ice right when 134 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: I saw so many conversations yesterday that was who was 135 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: the best player? Well, McDavid. McDavid was great. Probably, probably, 136 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: probably mccarr was the best was the best player for 137 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: for Canada Right now, I'm getting to something. Probably mccarr 138 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: was the best player. But neither of them were the 139 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: best player in the game, because the best player was 140 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: Connor Hellibuck. And it wasn't even close. It was an 141 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: all time gold medal performance. He was the best player 142 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: on the ice. It's like, oh no, but he wasn't 143 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: a Canadian player, so I can't say no, he was 144 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: the best player. Just because he's the goalie doesn't mean 145 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: he's not the best player. Just because he's not skating 146 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: doesn't mean he's not And I say this because it's 147 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: the closest with Sam Darnold winning the Super Bowl and 148 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: Connor Hellibuck winning the Gold medal. This is the closest 149 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: I'm ever going to get to anybody associated with the 150 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: Jets winning anything. So I'm here for Connor Hellibuck. He 151 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: was the best player on the ice. Yeah at hello. 152 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 3: Book another one of those great stories of where did 153 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 3: he come from? Guy that was not recruited.

It's me and Jared Smith. 172 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 3: And it was funny because go to the update a desk, guys, 173 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 3: a glowing cron was in and it's won nothing us 174 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 3: And he finishes his update and goes to throw it 175 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 3: backs like that's one one. I'm like, ilo, your microphone's 176 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: not cut off for the rest of the show. You 177 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 3: were done and so sitting here and watching it. But 178 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 3: when that graphic came up in the in the post 179 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: of here's your tournament MVP, you just had to last. 180 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, really standing on his head gold and they'll take 181 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: the gold back again. In Canada, they just cried the 182 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: entire time. And then today you get Cooper uh talking 183 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: about how three on three is not hockey anymore and 184 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: it's TV driven rules for three on three and overtime, 185 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: and I'm like, wow, the one person that should just 186 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: be quiet is the head coach of the team that lost, 187 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: because you just look bad, right, John Cooper just looks bad. 188 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: And the thing is is we've talked about this. You 189 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: could not like three on three. I get it, I 190 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: get I get if you don't like three on three. 191 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: I think it's exciting. I think it's a great way 192 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: to to get a game over instead of worrying about 193 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: here's a deflection that goes through seventeen different people, or 194 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: here's a power player, here's something where somebody slips and 195 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: falls on the ice. But okay, I get I understand that. 196 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 1: But to make it out like, oh, we lost because 197 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: it was three on three. I'm sorry. You have the 198 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: best players in the world or where you made. Did 199 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: you were not allowed to play McDavid and celebriny and 200 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: and McKennon and those guys in overtime? 201 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 2: No? 202 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: No, you were able to play those. Oh you had 203 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: to play three on two. No, no, everybody played three 204 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 1: on three. Okay, okay, but we weren't familiar with the 205 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: format now except you know during the tournament when it 206 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: was three on three and in the NHL when you 207 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: go to overtime and you play three on three. 208 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 3: But outside of that, Oh but three on three, three 209 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 3: on three, well, you did advance in the tournament all 210 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 3: the three on three. 211 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, So it's not like it's just so okay, So 212 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: you have that and and the other part is that, okay, 213 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: I'm going back. So three on three in overtime. That 214 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: stopped them from scoring on a minute and a half 215 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: five on three power play. That stopped McDavid, who couldn't 216 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: get a shot off on a breakaway. Your best player 217 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 1: couldn't get a shot off on a breakaway. Stop celebrin. 218 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: You had two breakaways and got two bad shots, right, 219 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: didn't stop now, Nathan McKinnon from missing a wide open 220 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: net the one time in the game that Hella Book 221 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: was out of position and he misses a wide open net. Right, 222 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: I don't think three on three overtime stopped Tase from 223 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: getting stone point blank by Hellabook with maybe the best 224 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: save in Olympic history. If one of those things goes right, 225 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 1: guess what, we don't have overtime. So to sit here 226 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: to the candidate wanting to blame everything else, but we 227 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: lost the game. You know what, Sorry, United States, We 228 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: do this every forty six years, maybe the other forty 229 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: six years. So we win again. Okay, I get it, 230 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: but you lost. Take ownership of it own. You lost 231 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 1: the game. Give credit to it. But they don't want 232 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: to give credit to the United States and what they lost. 233 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: And it's so embarrassing that they have no idea what 234 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: to do but lash out. You know what, grow up. 235 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 1: You guys are pros. There's a whole reason that pros 236 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 1: at the Olympics. You guys are pros. You've been through 237 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: stuff like this. You can't win every single time. When 238 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: you lose, give credit to Hella Buck and say what 239 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: a great game. Because if they just wanted to say 240 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: that and say, yeah, we're better, but boy, hella, but okay, great, 241 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: but you didn't get any of that. You didn't get 242 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: any of that from because they're just so bitter, from 243 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: the coach to the players, to the pundits to the 244 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: former players. It's amazing how all of them are just 245 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: absolutely melting down. But I guess I kind of have 246 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: to like it a little bit because that just juices 247 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: up hockey more, right, United States Canada because it was 248 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: pretty much an older brother, not even older brother, younger brother. 249 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,599 Speaker 1: Rivalry for her long time was well every time we 250 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: played for a gold medal, Canada one. So it's like 251 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: really a one sided rib. Man. I can't stand that's 252 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: the Red Sox. Yeah that and four. Yeah that's fine, 253 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: you guys win one. An'll let us know. But now 254 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: it's a thing. Right now, now it's even hotter than 255 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: it was. I mean, you heark. Brady could Chuk said 256 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: before the game, Hey there's a lot of hate there, sure, 257 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: but now it's ramped up. So I kind of like 258 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: the fact that, okay, now that Canada can't get over it. 259 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: Now this has turned this into something. But honestly, you 260 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: just sound bad. You just sound like you sound so 261 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: bitter when you had every opportunity to win the game 262 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: and you couldn't. And it's like the discovering hockey. Oh, 263 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: three on three, Oh a hot goalie. You guys have 264 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: played hockey your whole lives. This is how hockey goes. 265 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: You look like you've never shown up your Frankie first year. Oh, 266 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: I didn't know this what happened. I gotta wear skates. Oh, skates. 267 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: I was running around on sneakers and I had really 268 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: good spikes on the bottom. Now I gotta wear skates. Oh, 269 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: I didn't know they did this in the Olympics. 270 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a laundry list of excuse making had sixty 271 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 3: minute's plus to win. 272 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: That's it. You laid out a number of the scenarios. 273 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 3: The five on three penalty kill some of the best 274 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 3: ninety seconds you're ever going to see, because that's where 275 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 3: you are, at the edge of your seat, awaiting impending doom. 276 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 3: The sort of damacles is on its last freight strand 277 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 3: ready to drop, and it never did. Instead, the penalties 278 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 3: get killed and we advance forward. But yeah, just a 279 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 3: crazy game all the way through for the Canadian players, 280 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 3: coach and everybody to try to lash out with reason 281 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 3: slash excuse after excuse. At some point you just have 282 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 3: to look in the mirror and wear it. Sometimes it 283 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 3: takes a little while to get to acceptance. Right, what 284 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 3: are the five stages? 285 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 2: Agree? 286 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 3: If you don't get to acceptance right away, So what 287 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 3: do you do? You lash out at everybody else's problem. Right, 288 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 3: if you're never the problem in a relationship? Right, I've 289 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 3: never been the problem. You gotta c minus in a class. 290 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 3: No teacher screwed me. 291 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: I stick on the test when it came in and 292 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: I was really out of it for the next half hour. 293 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: That was the end of it. 294 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 2: Yep. 295 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 3: He didn't start the time or on time, or he 296 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 3: set me next to the guy who just kept clicking 297 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 3: his pen and I just couldn't concentrate. I mean, there's 298 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 3: nothing I can do as opposed to I didn't bother 299 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 3: to study all night, I didn't bother to show up 300 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 3: to class most weeks, all of those things that lead 301 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 3: you to a bad end. 302 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: In this case, you had ample opportunity. 303 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 3: Goalie stood up on his head and should be supported 304 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 3: and awarded as such. And for Team Canada, hopefully this 305 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: gets people juiced for the second half of the NHL season. 306 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 3: I don't know know that it will down the stretch run, 307 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 3: but certainly for the next international play. They already hated 308 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 3: each other coming in all those videos. This only ramps 309 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 3: it up a little bit more. 310 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: Own it, take the l own it, own it, own 311 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: it you los, Jason. The Canadians are literally reading your 312 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: book of excuses here, really straight out of the Jason Smiths. 313 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: What are you talking about, Mike book of excuses? We 314 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 1: talked ten the next kept blown out the game never happened. No, no, no, 315 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: I never know. They never said the game never happened. Yeah, 316 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: you pretend it never happened. They want yeah, oh yeah, 317 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 1: the game They have gone as far as you. This 318 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: is out of the Jason Smith excuse book, literally page one. 319 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: They just haven't gotten to the graduate level. They should 320 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: have gotten right doing it never happened. They should have 321 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: gotten right to the game never happened. It would have 322 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: been better for them. Oh we didn't play, we didn't play. 323 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: Yeah we No, we didn't. I don't know how we 324 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: were talking about. 325 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 3: You know, what if we've had Sydney Crosby, Yeah, yeah, 326 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 3: if we'd had the kid, All right, right, I call 327 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 3: that and I think about him. 328 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: Like, isn't he like forty? It doesn't matter. It doesn't 329 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: matter because whatever reason Canada would have found have lost 330 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: the game, it would have been an excuse. Oh we 331 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: lost because of this. We lost because of this, We 332 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: lost because the ice was at this level.

We're getting set for the combine, We're getting 372 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: set for potential rule change in the NFL, and our 373 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: next guest is getting set for a summer of maybe 374 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: a lot of Pete Alonzo Dingers. Baltimore's own Washington Post 375 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: Jason Locking for NFL Insider, Jay. I think if Pete 376 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: Alonzah HiT's a home run every day for you, even 377 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: though it's the exhibition season, you'll be okay this year. 378 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what. Yeah, he finally stopped, I 379 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: guess today, but he's launched some and I know obviously 380 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 2: the jet streams can be in full force down there 381 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 2: this time of year. But the Jordan Westburg injury situation 382 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 2: does not sound good. And them trying to play Kobe 383 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 2: Mayo a third dase will be difficult. Oriols front off 384 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 2: of Shenanigans from a bunch of clowns. But he's going 385 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 2: to do his part. I have no doubt about that. 386 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 2: Sheep will bring veteran energy. It won't be just a 387 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 2: whole bunch of kids playing with legos all the time 388 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 2: there they call Nip some of that handsome brother stuff 389 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 2: in the in the butt and yeah, I think, hey, 390 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 2: I don't know, fifty bombs. I mean that ballpark's going 391 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: to be nice for him a lot of the day, 392 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 2: at least ballparks it's gonna be nice for him. It 393 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 2: should be fun. 394 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 3: Oh that makes it an even better spring and summer 395 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: for us here in the studio, because Frostburg is gonna 396 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 3: roll up every one of those home runs in every 397 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 3: language possible. 398 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's gonna be I think there's gonna 399 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 2: be quite a few. 400 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: All right. Now, as we look ahead, we have the 401 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: combine coming up, and everybody's you know, descending, getting ready, 402 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: but rule changes stuff We've heard over the weekend, you know, 403 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 1: take us up, you know, down here a little bit. 404 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 1: I think a lot of us were surprised we heard 405 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: over the weekend. You know, there are a couple of 406 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: reports that, hey, probably not going to be a vote 407 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: on the Toush push. 408 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 2: Wait. 409 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 1: Wait, everybody's so mad. Everybody was so mad last year. 410 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: Jay Vanes were bulging out, We're not going to get 411 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: a vote, We're not gonna to toush push is going 412 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: to just happen again this year, and and and that's it. 413 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 2: That caught me by surprise. Because the league clearly wanted 414 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 2: just go on, and the league you know, had to 415 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 2: let teams know that, you know, it might not be 416 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 2: wink wink, you know, it might not be the worst 417 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 2: thing in the world to carry some favor with the 418 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 2: commission and put out you know, some from edicts to 419 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 2: try to get this thing out. Now, I guess, you know, 420 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 2: nothing this year was quite as ugly as the Washington 421 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 2: Philadelphia playoff situation from the year before, So maybe not 422 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: as much of a hot button but a mind situation 423 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 2: as it was a year ago. Oh yeah, and the 424 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 2: apartment I'm wrong, but the Eagles did not win the 425 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 2: Super Bowl this year, so maybe that, you know, had 426 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 2: something to do with people not wanting to advocate against 427 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 2: it as much. You know, you're only going to be 428 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 2: able to sumit so many of these proposals, and ye 429 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 2: have to sort of prioritize them, and I guess, you know, 430 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 2: the appetite just wasn't there. But the league's going to 431 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 2: be spending a lot of time in the coming years, 432 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 2: maybe because it get to be plural years, but in 433 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:56,239 Speaker 2: the coming year negotiating with the union, and they're going 434 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 2: to use health and safety as a lynch parent I 435 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 2: wrote about some of this sports from what the playoffs 436 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 2: will look like if the league gets its way for 437 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 2: eighteen games, and they've already got some of their data 438 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 2: that they've gathered about, you know, when injuries occur, and 439 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 2: more injuries occur early in the year and not lately year, 440 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 2: So they're going to keep playing that health and safety card. 441 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 2: And again, if you go back a year ago to 442 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: when this was a hot pot issue, they were really 443 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: couching it around help and safety. So hey, if it's 444 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 2: here for another year, it's here for another year. I 445 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 2: don't think it's going to be here for the totality 446 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 2: of Goodell's regime. 447 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 3: Potential to open the Chamber of secrets looks like it's 448 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 3: there as well. Competition Committee allegedly looking into the idea 449 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 3: of penalizing unflagged acts as they'd go into the review 450 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 3: review booths. Does this become problematic, Well. 451 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 2: It's already problematic, you know, because they're doing it in 452 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,199 Speaker 2: some windows more than others. What they really need to 453 00:20:55,200 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 2: do is, again you've talked about this for quite some times, 454 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 2: protocols of who's actually overseeing these games, who's in those 455 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 2: rooms in New York, and I don't know why we 456 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 2: can't see that communication. Why is that secret communication? It's 457 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 2: all in me. Also under the offices of making the 458 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 2: game more egalitarian, what do we have why we see 459 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 2: other leagues allow it to happen. I mean, I think 460 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 2: they need to clean up the process first, honestly before 461 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 2: they start talking about what it can and can't be 462 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 2: expanded to. But certainly I think that there does need 463 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 2: to be a more explicit layout of how and when 464 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 2: and why they go into these games when they do. 465 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 2: Because I can just tell you haven't talked about this 466 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 2: all see along with multiple personnel executives and general managers, 467 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 2: the teams themselves don't know. 468 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: NFL inside of Jason Locking for our guest Jason Smith 469 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,239 Speaker 1: Mike Harmon live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. All right, 470 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: so from here we get to the combine and obviously 471 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: for Naro, Mendoza is gonna be there, talk to everybody. 472 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: You're going to go to the Raiders, obviously not to 473 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: throw any anybody you're expecting. Hey, if you're not surprised 474 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 1: that we're talking about them a lot coming up the combine, 475 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: whether it's Reese or somebody else, first round or quarterback 476 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: Who's Who's a couple of guys You're like, hey, after 477 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: the combine, these may be some people. It gets a 478 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: lot of attention. 479 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 2: I don't think you'll find Cole Payton talked about it, 480 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 2: written about much the North Dakota take quarterback. But I 481 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 2: the evaluators that I talk through the most and who 482 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 2: have who aren't they have no dog in this fight. 483 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 2: They're not going to be drafting him. They're not getting 484 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 2: position drafts him, but they don't need to draft him. 485 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 2: Just a lot of people I know whose evaluations have 486 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 2: proved to be I see the quarterback position dead on 487 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 2: over the years. Think he's the second best quarterback in 488 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 2: the draft. I think he has a chance to go 489 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 2: at the end of the first round or certainly high 490 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 2: in the second round. And I don't think he's gonna 491 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: find that projected anywhere. You know, in a mock draft. 492 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 2: And again, if you look at mocked Nation right now, 493 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 2: you're gonna see barely ahead of Baine everywhere. I don't 494 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 2: know if that's gonna be the case. I think mister 495 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 2: Paine is a real shot to be the second overall 496 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 2: pick in this draft. 497 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 3: That also gives us cool Batman tie in so that's 498 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 3: good for all of us. As said, he will not 499 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 3: be partaking of any of the festivities this week as 500 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 3: we roll into this. But you know, the Dallas Cowboys 501 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 3: making some news they re signed Javonte Williams three years, 502 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 3: twenty four million, and now they're going to place the 503 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 3: franchise tag on George Picktts. Probably the wise move given 504 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 3: his history question mark. 505 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 2: I think I'd rather runt him for a year at 506 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 2: that price point than do something longer term, or you know, 507 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 2: let him walk for a compick. You get him for 508 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 2: another year. He should be on his best behavior because 509 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 2: he still has to play for that contract. But I look, 510 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 2: and that's the spirit and intent of the franchise tag. 511 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 2: It's supposed to be a facilitated discussion for a longer 512 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 2: term deal. In this case, I think they would be 513 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 2: squatting on him, which again the players get pissed about it, 514 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 2: and rightfully so, because that's not what the spirit of 515 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 2: this is supposed to be in the CBA. But it 516 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 2: is a weapon that these teams tend to use, and 517 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 2: I think in this case that's what the Cowboys will do, 518 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:17,479 Speaker 2: and they will use his past issues, you know, flipping 519 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 2: out on the sidelines, who's it is cool? All that stuff, 520 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 2: and we saw some of that re emerge last year. 521 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 2: I think that'll work against him here. And so yeah, 522 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 2: I don't know anybody else catch besides him the picks. 523 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I tend to think from my reporting that 524 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 2: I've done and what I've written, at this point, i'd 525 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 2: be surprised the league Jacks would be surprised if anybody 526 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 2: else can say, maybe a transition tagget to Probably not 527 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:45,679 Speaker 2: another franchise time. But yeah, I mean, you know, the 528 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 2: running back deals kind of interesting to me. I don't 529 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 2: know that I'd necessarily be in a rush to do 530 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 2: that now, but hey, Jerry works in mysterious ways. 531 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: All right, now, let's get to this now. Well, because 532 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: obviously Jay was. As we look ahead to the to 533 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: the draft and the combine, you know, we get bigger 534 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: and bigger and bigger. Aaron Rodgers is on a darkness 535 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 1: retreat somewhere somewhere. I can't believe he's not gonna play 536 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: this year. I can't believe he's doing this and he's 537 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: not gonna play. 538 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 2: I think he's going back to Pittsburgh to pat his 539 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 2: dads too. You know, show everybody that you know, hey, 540 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 2: I can make nice with Mike McCarthy and you idiots 541 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 2: avenue anything in the first place. I just think there's 542 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,199 Speaker 2: a lot of subplots and a lot of things, like 543 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 2: he's been with that coach before, He's obviously been in 544 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,360 Speaker 2: he just was in that locker room. The division looks 545 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 2: pretty bleak, will probably the chance to at least get 546 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 2: to the playoffs. Again, what would it look like in 547 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 2: the playoffs. It wouldn't look good. But like, yeah, I 548 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 2: think it's entirely on brand. I also think again, based 549 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 2: on reporting on this the last two or three weeks, 550 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 2: I don't think he's gonna have any other fs Pittsburgh 551 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 2: and buff It's Minnesota stuff and some of this stuffs 552 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 2: being floated, like I not what I'm here. I think 553 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 2: he's got Pittsburgh at their price, or he ken go 554 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 2: to stay on that darkness retreat. 555 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: Actually, did you mentioned Minnesota? 556 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 3: What what do they do? JJ McCarthy under fire? Did 557 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 3: they bring in one of these veterans in the marketplace? 558 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 2: Sir? 559 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: Is it gonna be? 560 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 2: Keep hearing Kirk Presy? 561 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 1: Wow, look out Coles. I mean I mean this this 562 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: quarterback selection of I mean this is we spend a 563 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: lot of time talking about, Hey, the Jets blew it 564 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: with Sam Donald, but wow, the Jets got rid of 565 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: Sam Donald when he was bad, like this Viking situation, 566 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: Jay looks so every day it looks like they really 567 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: had no idea what they were doing. We're kicking Sam 568 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: Donald to the curb for a guy don't know if 569 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: he's any good, and now a year later, yeah, we're 570 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: bringing in competition for him like that. 571 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 2: Has a job, you know. And I don't think you 572 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 2: can put it all on the GM by any such 573 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 2: of the United Nations. But there's already been fallout and 574 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:01,719 Speaker 2: ramifications and they can't have to back lost years like that. 575 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 2: There's too many hungry and willing enable mouth to feed 576 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 2: in that offense and too good of a defense to 577 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 2: go through another season with that caliber of quarterback. So yeah, 578 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 2: they know they need to have real competition, nity to 579 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 2: have somebody who you know, has one games in this league. 580 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 2: And that's a guy who's one game in this league 581 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,360 Speaker 2: and quite a few of them, including a playoff run 582 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 2: with that coach, So they too. 583 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 1: He's on Twitter at Jason lock and for that is 584 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 1: at Jason lock and for check them out Washington Post 585 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: as well. Jay as always, Buddy, appreciate it. 586 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 2: Man. 587 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: We'll talk to you next week. Enjoy the week, see 588 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: Jays Now, Now that's great stuff. Cole Peyton North Dakota 589 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: State might be the second best quarterback in the draft here, Jays. 590 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: Luck for people that I talk to that I trust, 591 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: that I trust, say he's the second best quarterback in 592 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 1: the draft. Maybe comes up that might not be the 593 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: second guy taking Ty Simpson might wind up coming off 594 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 1: the board later on, but he might be the second 595 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: best quarterback in the teams already. You can see, I can, 596 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: I can squit my eyes and go, we're just gonna 597 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: get Josh Allen. Right, that's what's gonna happen. Right, We're 598 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: gonna get Josh Allen. Like that's how it happened, right, 599 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 1: he came out, you know, smaller school. Hell, yeah, we're 600 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: gonna get Josh Allen again. But Cole Payton could be 601 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 1: the second best quarter last raft. The Jets take him, 602 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: and then he's Austwiler. Oh yeah, it's whatever the Jets 603 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 1: do is wrong, that's all. Hey, a smiler won some 604 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: games and he also hit those reporters in the head, didn't. 605 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, we've seen that in plenty of movies 606 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 3: and TV shows to where he's been uh intended where 607 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 3: he hit the mask. 608 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: He was in the replacements, Yes he was here was 609 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: after Martel came back across the picket line and then 610 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: then then he came back into play. 611 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 3: I mean, my guy did it in Varsity Blues. Rest 612 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 3: in peace, James Van Derek. I mean, come on, you're 613 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 3: playing with the best playing with the best quarterback in 614 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 3: the league. 615 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 616 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: No, Martella's crossed the picket line. 617 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 3: But the the Minnesota stuff is fascinating, right because look 618 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 3: he did it. The GM did a terrible job because 619 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: they don't have any during his draft run. 620 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: Was was just awful for four plays years. 621 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 3: But the ultimate uh sign on the wall is Sam 622 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 3: Darnold super Bowl champion. You know it just just you know, 623 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 3: I would just love this whole champion if there was 624 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 3: some sort of lockout now, like to see a superstar 625 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 3: like the bet like Patrick Mahomes would cross the picket 626 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 3: line to go play, really like Josh Allen would cross 627 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 3: the picket line to go play. 628 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: Jason. I don't think I play a cross Mahomes. I 629 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: think Riola would just play for him. Oh, you're probably right. Yeah, yeah, yah, yah, yeah, 630 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: you're right.
