I remember and the Seahawks won the first 518 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 2: Super Bowl in twenty thirteen, and I went with my 519 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 2: boy Brad Williams, who's a dire Broncos fan. 520 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 3: He's also a Dwarf, and. 521 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 2: Were sitting there and it was like fifteen nothing and 522 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 2: then Percy Harvin ran back to kick off to start 523 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 2: the second half. Brad looks down I take a picture 524 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 2: he was about to cry, and he goes, you might 525 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: not want to post that. If a Dwarf cries at 526 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 2: the super Bowl and it's public, it's seven years bad luck. 527 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 3: And I was like, so. 528 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 2: Funny, And I forgot how emotionally invested you get into 529 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 2: your team as a fan to where I was like 530 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 2: accepting partial responsibility. 531 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 3: People were like, dude, congrats in the super Bowl, congrats. 532 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 2: I had no problem accepting partial like response, I was like, dude, 533 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 2: thank you. In those fifteen beers, I had a half 534 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 2: I think gave Marshawn the extra boost he needed. But 535 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 2: you guys probably have that same delusion where you're like, 536 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 2: we are a reason the team stays consistent. 537 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 3: But I also think that there's a lot of truth 538 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:50,479 Speaker 3: to that. You know. 539 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: To go back to your original question, which would I 540 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: rather have? I think I'd rather be close because I'm 541 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: like you, I like to be invested in something you know, 542 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: because otherwise you get apathetic. But I also think the 543 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: secondary answer to that, which is something that you have, 544 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: it's something that I have. It's not something that you know. 545 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: It's something I lost. We didn't have with the North Stars, 546 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 1: and you didn't have with the Sonics. Is ownership that 547 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: cares about the community and winning. Yeah right, that's all 548 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: that sports is. And so I think more than getting close, 549 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: I think having like an ownership group that actually is 550 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 1: invested in winning a title and building in the community 551 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: in a way. Because you hear that with the Seahawks, 552 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: people like to go be a part of that organization. 553 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: They really like the way people talk about the Vikings organization. 554 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: That to me is the big deal and the thing 555 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: that allows you to reinvest because you're like, well, at 556 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: some point, at some point, it has to work out. 557 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: Now you here's my question back to you, because you 558 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: won that Super Bowl and then all of a sudden, 559 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: it's like you guys entered into this almost new era. 560 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: We're like, well, they're kind of just one of the 561 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 1: franchises that they might have to rebuild, but they'll be back. 562 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: You're just expected to be there. I mean, where were 563 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,959 Speaker 1: you at before that in that same regard, because it 564 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: was just years of misery with one hassleback miss like 565 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: you were us with less of a long history before 566 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: that Super Bowl. 567 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you you know, when you don't have 568 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 2: a winning history. That super Bowl in twenty five against 569 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 2: the Steelers. That was clearly rigged for Jerome Bettis to 570 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 2: walk off into the sunset. And even my Steeler fans 571 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 2: know that and will admit it slightly, But I mean 572 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 2: that was nobody cared about the Seahawks. We were small 573 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 2: markets still our small market team, but it's the one 574 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 2: sport where we have made more of a. 575 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 3: Splash in the zeitgeist, but at least for the Northwest. 576 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, it was a weird time because you're such 577 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 2: a you're such a die hard fan, but you're also 578 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 2: so aware of like, we're just not there. 579 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 3: We have a lot of holes on the team. 580 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 2: And and then we get home Grin and Hasselback was 581 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 2: actually a gangster, and then sewn Sander wins MVP and 582 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 2: then gets on the Madden cover and then gets the 583 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 2: Madden curse, and then you know we had some you know, 584 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 2: great receivers and and then you. 585 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 3: Know it just it. 586 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 4: Uh. 587 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 2: Getting Marshawn was like a big deal. I don't think 588 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 2: it was like a huge signing, but it was a big. 589 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: It's like a back to the future timeline shift getting him. 590 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally, And honestly that happened under the Pete John regime. 591 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 2: Which you know, I went to USC one to five 592 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 2: for acting school, and Pete was our coach at that time. 593 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 3: There was a thirty for thirty called Trojan War. 594 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 2: Which is basically about that time at USC, which is 595 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 2: just insane. 596 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 3: And and so. 597 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 2: I felt like Pete was like almost like a secondary father, 598 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: and because my left when I was young. 599 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 3: Thanks for bringing it up. 600 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 2: I really felt like attached because he was with us 601 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 2: for seventeen fourteen and Seattle and then you know what 602 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 2: three or four in SC and it was just a 603 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 2: really unique thing to be attached to somebody like that 604 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 2: sports wise, where you have so much emotional attachment and investment. 605 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 2: And I was so pumped when he got there and 606 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 2: so bumped when he left.

But Seattle people 631 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 2: are now so you live and die. We also are 632 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: just you know, craving a super Bowl that will wash 633 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 2: away twenty fourteen, and that will that Every year that 634 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 2: goes by, we get a little bit more removed from 635 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 2: it emotionally and physically. 636 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 3: But wow, dude, I'll. 637 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 2: Never I'll never forget where I was when that happened, 638 00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 2: or where I was when I was my coach. I 639 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 2: was a fact kid play basketball going to my coach 640 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 2: called me Krispy Kreme out George Jabar And I'll never 641 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 2: forget that either. 642 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: Two moments. Yeah, Pete Carroll, he's a Vikings alumni. We 643 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: love him here in Minnesota. And I think people you said, 644 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 1: you know, like his message wore out. I think it's 645 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: like kind of one of those things, like great bands, 646 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 1: you like, unless you are literally the band right or 647 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: the Rolling Stones or one of these things, is somehow 648 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: escape that thing that puts a cap on your time period. 649 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: Like I think it's almost weird if you make it 650 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: that long and you're relating to like how many coaches 651 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: in the history of the NFL can say they captured 652 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: a period of time with a generation of players and 653 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 1: did like because you guys didn't just win a Super Bowl. 654 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: And I think the travesty in that loss is that 655 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: had you And this is how I feel about the 656 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,959 Speaker 1: ninety eight Vikings, Like, had they ninety eight Vikings one, 657 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 1: we're sitting here talking about them as one of probably 658 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: the greatest teams of the last fiffty years. Had you 659 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: guys won that second Super Bowl, the term legion of 660 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: boom would be sitting right next to eighty five bears. 661 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: And not that it's not really highly regarded, but it's 662 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: just histories, narratives are defined by these little twists and turns, 663 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: and so to have presided over that in a way 664 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: where he changed the culture built it. He and Schneider 665 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: all that. That's like, good lord, you did that. Of course, 666 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: I mean at some point you don't relate. That's kind 667 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: of that's I think it's almost unrealistic to do anything 668 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: other if you were that successful. It's like Phil Jackson 669 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: GMing in New York, like, of course you're gonna suck 670 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: at that. 671 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 2: Dude, right right, Yeah, it's it's a pretty rare thing, 672 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 2: I think, to be as successful in a sport in 673 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 2: one spot like he was. 674 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 3: And you know, true Testament a testament or testament A 675 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 3: true Testament? 676 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: Let's go, first Testament? 677 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 3: Why do I say?
