• 1:56
  Speaker 5: It, I don't have I don't have anything extra, VIC.
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: All have've got is at what I have for me.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: Sorry about that typical stuff.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: By the way, this is going.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: To be a really really bad show. We've established that
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: I've established.
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: That if you if you open if you, I guess
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: you'll drive this hour if you open every segment the
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: way you open the show today, y'all, word, serious trouble.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Did you watch last night as Hurricane Vegas four to
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: two and you saw guys, you know, I can't get
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: over this motion as I'm watching this game, and I
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: don't know if this eases the pain of watching the
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Avs get eliminated in the conference finals or not.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: It's never going to ease the pain.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: But how do you get a bunch of stankovin stalls
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: and Svechnikov's How how are they one win away from
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: winning a cup? They don't have a Norris finalist, they
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: don't have a Heart finalist, they don't have a ves
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: A finalist, they don't have any of that stuff.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: And their one win away? How Yeah?
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: What they what they are, VIC is they're they're a
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: I guess, sort of a unique team. They're incredibly well coached,
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: very disciplined, but they've got a lot of I would
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: say the whole team, or virtually the whole team are
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: like second liners. You know, you've got just you've got
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: four second lines that.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Just roll and roll and roll and roll.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: They got a good blue line.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: They've made some sli moves over the past a couple
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: of years that you know, they got ca Andre Miller
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: away from the New York Rangers. You know, they signed
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: Gostis Bear, who at one point was you know, sort
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: of on an island of his own after the the
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: the bloom came off the Rose in Philly. Former Avalanche
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: Sean Walker is there. Of course, he was here a
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: couple of years ago at a trade deadline deal. Chatfield's
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: tough and studeley Nikeishin's a young kid who's kicking butt.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: They just they have a right combination and they keep
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: rolling at you and rolling at you and rolling at you.
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: And that's exactly what we saw last night. And Vic
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: I was gonna do something, and I decided not to
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: do it, but I was going to be a little
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: bit snarky on the old Twitter machine that ah, well,
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: you know last night you got Stone. Stone was a
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: minus last night. Howden was a minus last night with
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: no points. Martyr was a minus last night, had no points.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: I mean, should we should we think about trading those guys?
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: I mean should we? Tort I mean Torts has clearly
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: lost the room. Right, it's a total disaster. They're down
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: three games to two now and hanging on for desperation.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: Deer lives and and he was kind of a snarky
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: dude in the post game. I didn't send that tweet out,
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: but I'm like, you have to understand, dude, the difference
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: between winning and losing at this time of the year
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: is very, very minuscule.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Very well well again, but I can't get over the
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: tally gap. Like, if you were to line up the
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Avs and the Carolina Hurricanes and just pick players, all right,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: if you're gonna pick teams, it's just beer hockey, how
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: many aves would get picked before you go to Carolina? Like,
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: if you're literally sitting there saying, okay, I'll take this
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: guy and that guy, how many aves and your your
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: top six picks versus Carolina players.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: That is a great, great question.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Probably five of the six.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Then how is this in a row?
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: How are we because because on the ABS you've got
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: you know, you've got the top pair for Team Canada
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: and the Olympics. You know you've got a Heart Trophy
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: finalist and McKinnon, who, by the way, didn't win it.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Coach did stinks? Are you surprised by that?
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: That was a vote?
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Man? How close is that thing? Holy moment. I'll get
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: into that a little bit later on.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: It's the it's the it's the guys who are voting,
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: you know, it's it's the people who are aren't putting
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: him and McDavid in the top five, which blows my mind.
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: It drives me crazy. And somebody actually voted for Suzuki
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: with a with a first place vote, which is absolutely
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: insane too. But I'll get to some of that a
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: little bit later on. You know, you know, Vick, It's
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: just it's I guess, yeah, McKinnon, mccar Tayves, you know
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: Natius obviously, who's a former Carolina Hurricane. I mean, all
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: these guys would come before. I guess you'd take your
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: first stab at Ajo. Who's their best player, their their
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: most dynamic player, Okay, and.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: At the end of the day, their one win away
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: from hoisting a cup and yeah, sour grapes and all
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: I do enjoy watching Vegas lose Game six is going
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: to be Sunday.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Gotta wait a while.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: But if they get to lose on home ice, that
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: would be especially joyous.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Here you been.
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: You may not know like Andrea's spetching the coffee either
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: vis time. I mean, he's a former second overall.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Pick I get it.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: We're really really good player.
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: But but you know, we're not talking about superstar or
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: anything of that nature, but really really good player.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: So yesterday you and I both attended the Joe Sakic
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Josh Cronky press conference.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: They're at Family Sports Center, and I.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Bring up this Carolina thing because of the style they
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: play and their style now as them one win away
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: from the Cup. Joe Sakik was asked yesterday about the
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Avalanche style of play. Nelly, do we have that cut?
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Because I want to play it and then I want
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: to talk to you about it because this is certainly
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: a topic that's going to come up. How would you
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: classify Mark Moser? What is the AVS style of play?
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: It's a speed game, it's a transition game. It's a
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: defense first and then attack is basically what it is.
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: It's not a lumbering, you know, dump and chase, hard,
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: blow up checking kind of game day in and day out.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: They utilize the talents that they have. I mean, if
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: you've got a Ferrari you put it on the track
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: and you drive it. And that's what guys like Nathan
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: McKinnon and Cale mccarr and Marty nhis are. I mean,
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: that's that's that's the kind of game they play. So
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: it's a very fascating team. It's a volume shot team.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: It's a good defensive team.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: In their own zone.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: That's where it all starts.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: And when guys are connected in the defensive zone and
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: their transition game is on, they're incredibly difficult to beat.
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: And uh not a lot of teams can play that
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: style because they don't have the requisite horses to be
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: able to get up and get out.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Okay, So it's a style of play that got you
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: the President's it got you through the first round in
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: a sweep, it got you through the second round against
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: a very good Minnesota team in a gentleman's suite. But
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: it's a style that suddenly came to a halt in
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: the Western Finals. So what does that make that style
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: of play? Sachik was asked about it yesterday at the
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: press conference.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: Was it a part of a bigger answer? Was it
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: was in the context of a greater discussion.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Send me the soundbites now already this show is a joke.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: I'm just telling you the way these are labeled, I
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: didn't see anything about the style of play, but they
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: they did. He did say essentially that the Avs were
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: the Colorado Wagon all season long and then they had
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: one bad week.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Exactly, So do you do you change the style because
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: of one bad week? And we've been talking about it?
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Do they need more sandpaper? Do you alter the whole
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: damn roster? How far do you take this? Because it
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: seems to me that Sakic was almost taken aback by
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: the question like, wait, you guys watched us play, You
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: guys watched us dominate. You guys watch this team put
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: together a season like no other and one bad week,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: and you want us to panic and change the style.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: That's the impression I got. Well what, okay, Well, what
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: do you feel The reaction was from part of the
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: fan base after they lost? Was exactly what? That's what
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: I'm saying. I mean, that's what the reaction? What that Well,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: more time that passes, the more rationality that exists, Like
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: how much of this do you want to change?
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: How much of this can you change?
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: And one fell swoop not a whole lot because you're
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: blow you blowing up the very core of your hockey club,
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: and you're not going to do that because you've got
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: some of the world's best players. Let me back up
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: a little bit, Vic, and I'll ask you a question
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: about what you saw yesterday. Because you and I sat
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: right next to each other. What was the demeanor of
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: one Joe Sakic?
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: He was chill.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, you could tell he's still a bit upset
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: about the way the season ended. He's obviously going to
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: be upset, But to me, the Joe Sakic I saw
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: yesterday was ready to roll up his sleeves and go
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: to work. He was asked about his role as the
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: GM now moving forward without McFarland, and by the way,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: by the way, I was interested when Josh Cronky mentioned
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Chris McFarland and he said, McFarland goes to Nashville. They
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: didn't want to see him go. They tried to keep him,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: but he said, number one, he gets to run his
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: own team. But number two, there were some personal reasons.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Were you aware of these personal reasons that he went
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: to Nashville?
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean well, I mean just just yeah.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I So, can you make sense of those personal reasons.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: I mean, obviously it's it's not that complicated, and it's
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: not that it's not that big of a deal.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: But his family's in Florida. He's be closer, he'd be
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: closer to them on a regular basis. Okay, I mean,
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: but it's probably nobody's business as to why, how, what
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: and where and all that sort of thing. But it
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: but it's also not any big it's there's nothing in
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: nefarious about it or anything.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: Of that nature.
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: I mean, good for him, and he got a wonderful
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: opportunity once I mean, what what he's going to be
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: doing in Nashville is I don't want to say once
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: in a lifetime opportunity, but for him it is right now.
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: I mean, to be president of hockey operations and to
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: be able to hire a Rob Blake underneath you have
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: full control of that team. That's a wonderful thing for Chris.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: So I I mean, obviously they wish him the best.
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: I wish him the best, and I hope he doesn't
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: kick too much ass because the Predators are inside the
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: Avalanche division.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: You know one thing that did.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Not emerge from that press conference yesterday, and I was
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: hoping you would ask, and nobody really did. I wanted
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: to know the injuries, and that never came to the surface.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: We don't know who was injured and how badly they
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: were injured. He never went into that detail. I'm surprised
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: that question wasn't asked, or was.
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: It It was asked, but he basically glossed it over
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: and said that everybody will be ready for training camp.
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: There should be no nagging, lingering things that go on
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: in the next season.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: So he didn't want to go into that, probably because
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: he didn't want to go to the excuse route.
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: Probably, So I mean, did did he make any excuses yesterday?
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: Did you hear any of that? Of course not.
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: Did he blame did he blame social media? Did he
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: blame you know, silly things that are that are esoteric?
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: No, he did not.
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: But he also had the demeanor Vic, which is why
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: I asked you the question. He had the demeanor of
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: a guy who knows the game, of a guy who
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: knows that, yeah, a bad way week or you know,
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: a couple of bad games, bad days, bad periods at
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: this time of the year are everything, and it's just
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: sometimes it's just the way it is. Man you don't
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: need to burn it down, tear it down, blow it up,
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: fire this trade that you don't you don't need to
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: do that. And I also liked this is him putting
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: his trust in his players. And we'll talk about coach
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: Bednar and we'll talk about the player's reaction to him
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: and everything else, but he put he put the faith
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: back in the players and said, look, all the exit interviews,
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: all of this, all of that, these guys are They've
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: earned the opportunity to continue to fight and try to
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: win another Stanley Cup. He was very calm about it,
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: very level headed, very smart about it. Now, it may
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: not be the answers that everybody wants to hear, but
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: I'll tell you what they are. They're the correct answers
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: in my eyes. That's what they are vic in my eyeballs.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: All right, So today World Cup starts for the Americans,
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: and later today live broadcast with the afternoon show. Where
• 14:06

  Speaker 5: drive from this point on?
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: What do you think? Steve your expert producer opinion, A man?
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: I mean this is I'll be honest with you, Okay,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you. I got nothing in my mailbox,
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: I got no sound. I've got absolutely nothing to work with.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Nobody sent me anything, nobody gave me anything, nobody gave
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: me ready promotions to read. Nothing, completely blind. There's been
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: no assemblage of order whatsoever. So you're looking at me saying, hey, Vic, hey,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: go ahead and drive the show. I got nothing but
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: your face and Nelly doing the Appetizer Hour.
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: It's Moshe, Lombardi and Kane. I'm a GVR beautiful day
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: here at Green Valley Ranch. Vick is in his son's
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: former bedroom and Nelly's doing whatever Nelly.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: Does with his flute. Stick with us.
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: We've only just begun, Sean Payton with a new five
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: year extension. We've got more talk about the Cup. What
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: Joe said, everything else is straight ahead on altitude ninety
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: two five A beautiful Friday here.
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: Yep, Jesus, I thought we established start get you something
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: in the last thing years.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: I think I just made it too easy.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Mosie, Lombardi and Kin on this Friday morning, minus Kane,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: who's in the mountains. Mosure is a Green Valley ranch.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: This is a sports talk show. It's going to end
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: with drunk takes. Today, I want to tell you about
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: two coaches most and I want you to soak this
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: in a little bit hight. Two coaches who have been
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: around a while. One coach only coached one team. The
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: other coaches coached two teams. But they both have one ring.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: They both scored one ring in their careers. They've both
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: been winners. They've both established winners for long periods of time.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: One coach yesterday, based on last year's results and the
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: winning of late one coach received a five year contract extension.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: The other coach is going into the final year of
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: his contract, not sure about getting extended. One coach is
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: Sean Payton and the Broncos. The other coach is Jared
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: Bednar at the Colorado Avalanche. What's the difference.
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: I suppose the difference of vic would be that Peyton
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: is new here and the Broncos are on the upswinging.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: They're coming off an AFC title game appearance. If you
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: have Bonnix, maybe you could have, would have, should have
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: probably go to the Super Bowl. And so they're betting
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: on the future, are the Walton Penner group. They're betting
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: on the fact that Sean Payton's got everything in order
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: and that the Broncos are trending in the right direction.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: The Abs are already there. I mean, they've already been there.
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: They've been battling for Cups for years now and they
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: won one, of course four years ago. So it just
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: the timing and the length of stay is completely different
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: between the two guys.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: But the resumes, as we just went through, the resumes
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: are pretty much the same.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: Well yeah, but I mean, listen, if you took Jared
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: Bednar out of the Colorado Avalanche, which you're not doing,
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: but if you did, and you put him someplace else
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: and that team was trending and he let's say he
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: got popped in the Eastern Conference Final by Carolina or whatever,
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: but you could see this team growing and growing and growing,
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: he would get a brand new five year extension as well,
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: I mean, there's no doubt in my mind.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Well the rise and he could hear yeah.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: Well see, Well the reason.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: I'm bringing up is because Sean Payton here is looked upon.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Is Oh my gosh, you know he got a five
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: year extension. Look what he's doing with the Broncos. But
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: I want you to take the same coach, the same
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: resume and put him at the tail end of his
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: career in New Orleans. As he looked differently in New
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Orleans after he won a Super Bowl? Is he treated differently?
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: I mean it didn't end well there, he laughed.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: But I'm just curious.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: You know, you sort of reinvent yourself by going to
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: another team. You reinvent your resume, you reinvent the perspective.
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: That's correct. Hey, Vick, as we roll on here, we
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: just got a text from DMAC. You want to check
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: that out real quick and get back to me. Why
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: don't you check that out? It says here that Jonathan
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: Cooper from Mike Cliss at nine News is back in
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: jail this morning with four new charges. Oh my god, violating,
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: violating protective order. Nelly, Can you can you read that
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: down for me?
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: Please?
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to anamall. I've got to go to Coudarelli.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: Can you tell me why? That's unreal to me? So
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: everything looked fine and dandy a few days ago, like
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: charges were off and now all of a sudden they're
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: back on.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Vic, I'll be your rl. E Here.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: This is from nine News here Mike Clifs reporting Broncos
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: outside linebacker Jonathan Cooper was arrested again Thursday night by
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: Parker police and booked into the Douglas County Jail, where
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: he is now held on four charges stemming from violating
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: the protection order against him. He received four new charges
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: Thursday night, two on domestic violence, one for harassment based
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: on repeated phone calls, and a fourth for violation of
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: a protection order he received when he was initially arrested
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: last Thursday.
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: So it would it would tell me, Vic that has
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: arrested for phone calls.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: We there's probably a no contact.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Yet harassment based on repeated phone calls.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: Gotcha, there's a protection order. You can't call, you can't contact,
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: you can't do anything.
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: And so it would say to me that these new charges,
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: if you're arrested then a week later after the initial charges,
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: this is bad I mean, you know, you have Harvey
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: who's doing the work for him as his lawyer, but
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: this doesn't look good at all. This would tell me
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: that this would tell me that perhaps his days is
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: at Denver Bronco are now over.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Well, this is going to be an early test for
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: this regime, right, this this regime you talked about, it's
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: in Sean Payton has been here. They haven't encountered much
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: of this at all. This used to be a standard
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: at Broncos. We used to hear about stories like this
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: a lot on a weekly basis at times. And it's
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: been for the last couple of years, it's been silent.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: We haven't had much off the field trouble with the Broncos. Well,
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: here's one. How will they handle it? I mean, yeah,
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: a talented pass rusher works on I'm.
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: Reading the story, Yeah, I'm reading the story. At nine
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: News says a protection order was initially placed against Cooper
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: from contacting his girlfriend, and initial charges came after the
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: incident in his home blah blah blah blah blah, and
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: then something happened again last night.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Something.
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: There was an e motion for a hearing for July sixth.
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: The jury trial set for July twenty second. Now you've
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: got four brand new charges. I mean, this is this
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: is bad, dude. It's bad for the Broncos, bad for him,
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: bad for everything. It's not good at all.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Von Miller online.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: One this, this could certainly change those conversations. Is that
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: the route you would go? You think, I have no idea.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, we're jumping to conclusions here. You know, Let's
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: see how the Broncos react to this. Let's see where
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: they take this, Let's see where the court takes it.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: But to have two arrests in a span of one
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: week is beyond troubling. I mean, it just persists, it
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: goes on. And that's again one of the reasons they
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: brought Sean Payton in. And what he prides himself on
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: is a quiet room, a quiet organization.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: They don't want to deal with any of this.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Well, right, get ready to deal because this is gonna
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: be a big story until he takes care of it.
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it certainly isn't You if you're arrested and you
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: have a high priced, high powered attorney like Harvey and
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: you want a speedy trial, you want to, you know,
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: put this behind you. You can be he said. She said
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: type of thing, because from what I understand, she also
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: was booked in jail last week and so on.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: You know, I guess it was taking two to tango.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: I really don't know.
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: But to have this now come around again and to
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: happened last night with four additional new charges and he's
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: currently sitting in the pokey that's vic. I mean, maybe
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: you can, you can explain things away after the first incident,
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: but now if you willfully violate uh in order, that's
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: that's bad. It's it's a it's not only a bad look,
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: it's just it's just bad, just bad stuff.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Most where the Douglas County Jail, where's that located? Obviously,
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: the one that we're familiar with is the one that's
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: right next door to the Broncos there.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: That's the Rappaho County Jail.
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: I think it's down. I think it's in Castle Rock.
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: So is the Pretty sure? Continue pretty sure it's in
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: Castle Rock.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: This guy's in the jail cell as we speak.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Man, that's gonna be a tough one to navigate.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: That's going to be difficult for a regime that is
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: really wanting to change the way it handles things like this.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's a fresh, clean slate for the Broncos
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: with the ownership change to coaching change.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: Nothing but good news over the last few weeks. Sean
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: Payton extended yesterday. How do they handle this?
• 23:58
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I don't know how they handle it? Vic,
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: this is listen. Well, well, I'm sure we'll eventually get
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: back to the football part. And what do you do
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: if one of your your main pass rushers is now
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: off the team? And how do you you know, how
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: do you fix that? But I'll tell you, uh, just
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: as a person wise, it doesn't look good at all.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Well, what's said is that it was pretty much done right,
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, charges were dismissed, they said, okay, we're fine,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden they're back into it.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: It shouldn't have come to this.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: It should have been over. They shouldn't have gone to
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: the next level here and here we are with Jonathan
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Cooper arrested. Okay, So a new line of questioning now
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: for Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos because these are
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: the kind of questions and I don't know when the
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: media is going to be when are they gonna be
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: able to talk again? I'm not even sure. I think
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: it's a once a week deal, is this, Connor?
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what's going on?
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: So?
• 25:00
  Speaker 7: I was sitting right here, first of all, hybrid, and
• 25:03
  Speaker 7: Mosa's like, well, Mos goes take over and he just
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: like ran to the bathroom. He said he didn't feel
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: very well. So Mos is just just exited. Let's get
• 25:13
  Speaker 7: weirdd Yeah, I mean seriously, and luckily I was sitting
• 25:17
  Speaker 7: right here, goes take over, left his phone again.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: Let me explain.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: So we're in the middle of a conversation. This is
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: segment two of a show without Brent Cannon. We're in
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: the middle of the deep conversation about a story that
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: just broke, and Mos, You're in the middle of the
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: conversation just bros up, leaves and gives you the mic.
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: I think that it had to have been an emergency.
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: Otherwise he would not have done that, because Nelly, He's.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: Nelly, Nelly.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Can you tell Connor how many emergencies does Moser have
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: on a daily basis?
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: He leaves the studio so many times for so many
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: different reasons.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Yesterday, Connor, I get coffee.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: Well, yesterday I told.
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: Moser he had to do a live read an upcoming
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: commercial break, and he goes. He goes, I got to
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: make a really important phone call, Broke, can we do
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: it later?
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: So you call me this guy in the middle. It
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: wasn't even a warning, Hey, I gotta go. Just in
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: the middle of the thought.
• 26:10
  Speaker 7: He turned down the input to the mic and then
• 26:13
  Speaker 7: he said to me, I have to go take over,
• 26:16
  Speaker 7: and so I did.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: So I'm in speaking.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: Look, he's management tracking this.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Are they up? I mean, what the
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: hell are you doing here? I can't believe you all
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: are still listening.
• 26:28
  Speaker 7: Well, I mean I feel that way all the time, Nelly,
• 26:32
  Speaker 7: But I mean it's good that I was here.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Connor.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: Let me I'm fully capable.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Let me ask a sane human being because I brought
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: this up. You were at the bed inar. Well it
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: wasn't a bed nose press conference, but his name came
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: up back at it with Joe Seek and.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: To see it there by the way, I see you
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: as well.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: So I'm gonna ask you a question that I raised
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Moser before he just left. I have two coaches in mind.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Both have won one championship each one ring. Both have
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: been proven winners over the years. Both have won recently.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: One is given a five year contract extension.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: Sean Payton.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: The other one, Jared Bednar, is entering his final year,
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: not sure exactly if.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: He'll get an extension. What's the difference between the two coaches?
• 27:21
  Speaker 7: They're both deserving of. Look Betnar for me, is I
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: say this to the firing crowd, who are you going
• 27:30
  Speaker 7: to put in there? If you're gonna fire Bednar? Who's
• 27:33
  Speaker 7: better than than him for this team?
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: Especially?
• 27:37
  Speaker 7: And Sakic answered that yesterday he goes, Jared is the
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: best coach for this team, and I agree, Sean Payton
• 27:45
  Speaker 7: gets a five year extension, what does he have two
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: years left?
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: Two years ago?
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a quick trigger.
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: Okay, so yes, so basically the next seven years through
• 27:55
  Speaker 7: twenty thirty, Sean Payton is around. I don't see a
• 27:58
  Speaker 7: ton of differences. I see two co which is who
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: are perfect for their team and probably the best at
• 28:03
  Speaker 7: what they do. And I think that we'll see what
• 28:07
  Speaker 7: happens with Jared Bednar. But this would be let's see
• 28:11
  Speaker 7: what we're going on ten years now with Bednar, right,
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: So it would be nice for him to get an
• 28:16
  Speaker 7: extension ahead of when his current contract expires. But to
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: answer your question, beck, I don't see a ton of
• 28:23
  Speaker 7: difference between the two.
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: What do you think?
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Well, that's why I paint the picture. I mean, they
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: both got to their respective conference finals, right, one was
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: to exactly success and the other one was deemed a failure.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: And we understand, we understand the goals of the apps.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: I'm not trying to paint any other picture. We know
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: that they should have won and wanted to win. But
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: it's crazy how one gets the extension and the other
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: one now sort of left dangling. And I'm curious, kidding,
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: when's the last coach? Do you remember another coach that
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: worked into his final year like this?
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: It locally or just locally.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's a tough that's a tough fine.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: Where it was?
• 29:01
  Speaker 7: What was Malone's contract situation at the end of the
• 29:04
  Speaker 7: season that he got.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: Fired last another two years ago? He had two years left? Okay, yeah, he.
• 29:10
  Speaker 7: Had Bud Black, I think George Carl, George Carl maybe yeah, Yeah.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: It doesn't happen often, is what I'm saying. No, exactly,
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: and they want that security for many reasons. But the
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: bednar and no one really asked about his his contract
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: situation yesterday. But maybe it just has to do with
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: the maybe climate around you know, the attitude of of.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: The last three years.
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: Frankly, you have the first round exit, you know, right
• 29:43
  Speaker 7: after you win the Cup to Seattle, and then you
• 29:45
  Speaker 7: have two versus Dallas, so you have four years in
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: a row you win to the go to the conference final.
• 29:50
  Speaker 7: And look, the Hurricanes were one went away from winning
• 29:52
  Speaker 7: the Stanley Cup, their first in twenty years to the year,
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: by the way, And I was thinking about this on
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: the way, and is it better to lose in the
• 30:01
  Speaker 7: Stanley Cup Final or the Western Conference? Finally, if you're
• 30:04
  Speaker 7: not going to win the whole, you don't want to
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: lose at all.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so funny, you know where your mind wanders. Connor,
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: I was thinking as I'm watching that game yesterday and
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: I'm replacing Vegas with Colorado, and I'm thinking myself, would
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: I be as mad as I was in the Western
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: Finals if Colorado's losing last.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Night the way Vegas did?
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: Would that venom still.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: With the series?
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: Where it is like if it's tied at to and
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: you lose Game five, coming back home and having to
• 30:29
  Speaker 7: defend for your life.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: It's like, if you lose, you lose. Where does it
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: matter how or win, you lose, Right, you lose.
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: You're probably like me, Vic, I'm in that camp that
• 30:39
  Speaker 7: hates losing more than I like winning.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: Of course that's fair.
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: I mean you'd be Yeah, you'd be hard pressed to
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: find anyone who feels different.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I suck.
• 30:52
  Speaker 7: But I think that getting to the like the Edmonton
• 30:55
  Speaker 7: Oilers the last two years, getting to the final and
• 30:57
  Speaker 7: losing has to be the absolute worst. And the Avalanche
• 31:01
  Speaker 7: have never had to go through that three and ohs
• 31:03
  Speaker 7: in Stanley Cup finals. We've never had to experience that.
• 31:07
  Speaker 7: We've lost in plenty of conference finals, Detroit, Dallas, you
• 31:09
  Speaker 7: name it, but now Vegas. But I think it'd be
• 31:14
  Speaker 7: much worse to get to the Cup final and lose there.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: The other thing that was brought up in that press
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: conference that we took certainly got my attention. Cale mccarr
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: was brought up and Joe laughed and said, listen, Kal's
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: going to play here. He's going to be here, he's
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: our guy.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: He's going to finish. The quote was he's going to
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: finish his career here at what price?
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: That's the key. At what price? Because can you certainly
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: you can pay him whatever the hell he wants. He
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: can demand anything, but what will it.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Do to the rest of the roster. The good the
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: good timing. I'll put it this way.
• 31:51
  Speaker 7: The Kale mccarr extension comes at the perfect time because
• 31:54
  Speaker 7: of where the salary cap is going in the National
• 31:56
  Speaker 7: Hockey League. They just came off their most profitable year
• 31:59
  Speaker 7: of all time. Cap is going up. That gives you
• 32:02
  Speaker 7: the flexibility to give a big chunk to a player
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: like that, and I think it would be a reasonable price.
• 32:09
  Speaker 7: They said they've already talked. He says, he's already talked
• 32:12
  Speaker 7: to Kale's agent. They're not too far apart. He says,
• 32:15
  Speaker 7: it will get done this summer, and that means that
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: it's a reasonable price that they can also build a
• 32:19
  Speaker 7: team that also has Nathan McKinnon. You have Marty Nachius.
• 32:25
  Speaker 7: Eight year extension kicks in this year starting July first,
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: so that's taken care of. So a lot of your
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: big pieces are already set. He's kind of the last
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: one I would think going forward. So it seems if
• 32:36
  Speaker 7: you read between the lines, that it would be a
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: fair but reasonable price for Cale mccarr.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: All right, In case you missed it, Breaking news from
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: Mike Cliss of A nine News. Jonathan Cooper, who was
• 32:48

  Speaker 2: As you're listening to the show, Bret Kane is in
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: the mountains doing mountain stuff. Mark Moser was in the
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: middle of a sentence in the last segment and just
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: walked off the show. He said his blood sher spiked.
• 34:32
  Speaker 7: Well, I thought he was gonna bar like He's like,
• 34:35
  Speaker 7: I'm sick. So I thought he was gonna barf all
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: over the patio here at Green Palley Ranch, okay, And
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: so I'm like, okay, well, now I get to share
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: a headset with that.
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: That's sweet. Okay.
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: So here here's why he jumps back. He goes, I

  Speaker 7: just had to have a TwixT bar laid down and
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: I'm good now.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: So for long time listeners, here here's what this show
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: has become. And again I'm being totally honest. I told
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: everyone yesterday that this show would be awful, and we've
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: already We're off to a roaring awful star. This is
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: a show where.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: At any moment one of.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Us could die.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Live on me. True, I mean I have can't different causes.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: I could die right now.
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I could just die.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Moser with his diet, what he puts in his body
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: as But here's this thing.
• 35:20
  Speaker 7: I think mos is going to be like a cockroach
• 35:22
  Speaker 7: or like a you know, he's going to be like
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: a fossil. He's gonna be like an alligator. He's just
• 35:26
  Speaker 7: gonna survive everything. He's going to be one hundred and
• 35:29
  Speaker 7: fifteen years old.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Well, he just passed.
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: Despite in the middle of the show. He just passed.
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: That's why he doesn't do it all in one swoop.
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: I keep looking around for him.
• 35:38
  Speaker 7: He doesn't like little, these little you know, chip aways,
• 35:41
  Speaker 7: which is why he's going to live to be one hundred.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: I couldn't even fathom what his stomach looks like. That
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: you know, they call that that visceral fat. That visceral
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: fat where you have all your issues. I would not
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: want to be Moser's visceral fat. The show goes on, Hey,
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: you are connor. For those that don't know, that's not
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: only are you the voice of the avalanche on the raid,
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: you know, and you do such a wonderful job. And
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: I've told you you don't need to be told anymore
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: how professional and how good you are at what you do.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: But you held and I'm not sure if you do
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: it anymore another job, and that as a soccer official,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: a referee.
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: How long now you're still doing it? And how long
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: were you doing it?
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: Much as I can, I do high school and college still,
• 36:19
  Speaker 7: but yeah, I started when I was fourteen and then
• 36:23
  Speaker 7: started doing high school in two thousand and three and
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: college in two thousand and ten.
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: What so, yeah, I.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Started at fourteen as an official?
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: How did you go that?
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: Do?
• 36:34
  Speaker 7: There's a lot of youth referees out there, Like if
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: you go to a seventy seven field now, or or
• 36:40
  Speaker 7: you know some of the eighty beddies out there on
• 36:42
  Speaker 7: Saturday or Sunday.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: There's youth officials who are out there.
• 36:46
  Speaker 7: But you know, I grew up in Breckenridge and I
• 36:49
  Speaker 7: was always fascinated with it, and I played soccer growing up,
• 36:52
  Speaker 7: four years varsity at Summit High School. No big deal,
• 36:56
  Speaker 7: but I was not good enough to go on after that,
• 36:59
  Speaker 7: but I still wanted to stay involved some way, so
• 37:02
  Speaker 7: officiating it sounded like fun.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: Believe it or not.
• 37:05
  Speaker 7: I don't know if I'm a massachist or not, but
• 37:07
  Speaker 7: so yeah, at fourteen I did that, and then yeah,
• 37:10
  Speaker 7: started picking up high school and then got the invite
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: to do college almost fifteen years ago.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: That's great. So it keeps you active, keeps you doing.
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: So some people not fat, which is nice.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: And the reason I love you here is because I
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: don't have to force feed soccer down your throat. Some
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: people you bring up soccer and they automatically go mute.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: Some people you bring up soccer and they go like mojo.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: They just walk off the show mid sentence, right because
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: they don't know what to say. They don't understand the sport,
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: they don't appreciate the sport. And yet here we are.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Nineteen ninety six was the first time last time, I'm sorry,
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: the US hosted.
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: A World Cup. Here we are was it ninety four?
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry?
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: Here we are with another World Cup on US soil,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: and tonight the US team will play at seven o'clock
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: against Paraguay. First of all, this US team what knockout
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: round is at least expected, right, They've got to get
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: the next year.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: You have to. You made it, You made it the
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: round of sixteen four years ago. So on.
• 38:06
  Speaker 7: In ninety four, remember they made it to the knockout round.
• 38:09
  Speaker 7: Remember they beat Columbia. Remember that game in uh I
• 38:12
  Speaker 7: think it was at usc was it the Coliseum where
• 38:14
  Speaker 7: they they beat Columbia two to one and they make
• 38:17
  Speaker 7: it to the knockout round lose to Brazil. But I
• 38:19
  Speaker 7: think that's a minimum. As good or as bad as
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: this team is. You've been trying to trend up for years,
• 38:28
  Speaker 7: and you've been promising that this next generation is going
• 38:30
  Speaker 7: to be it. This next generation is going to be it.
• 38:33
  Speaker 7: When you have some of the finest athletes on the planet,
• 38:36
  Speaker 7: and US Soccer has promoted their programs and building and
• 38:40
  Speaker 7: building and building, it has to show up eventually, and
• 38:43
  Speaker 7: I think it absolutely has to. Now it's not the
• 38:45
  Speaker 7: easiest group in the world to play at Paraguay, Australia
• 38:49
  Speaker 7: and then Turkey. I don't even know what's that other
• 38:52
  Speaker 7: pronunciation for, I can't even spelled. Whatever whatever they want
• 38:58
  Speaker 7: to do, but for but for our purpose, we're calling
• 39:01
  Speaker 7: it Turkey. So you have to make it out of
• 39:03
  Speaker 7: the group. You have to make it to the round
• 39:04
  Speaker 7: of sixteen. I think that you have to make it
• 39:07
  Speaker 7: to a quarter two. It's a bigger field, and you
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: just it's time to hold the standard up for US
• 39:16
  Speaker 7: soccer because you've been touting advancement for so many years
• 39:19
  Speaker 7: and you've come short for so many years. So I
• 39:21
  Speaker 7: think it has to be at least the round of sixteen,
• 39:24
  Speaker 7: if not more, I would say quarterfinals or better.
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: Otherwise it's a massive disappointment. Well, you could be like Italy.
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: You could be just sitting there, void of any fun,
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: any enjoy.
• 39:35
  Speaker 7: Let me tell you, I still can't fathom the World
• 39:38
  Speaker 7: Cup VIC without Italy.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, come on, I mean, the process is stupid.
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: They only have themselves to blame. But they're better than
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of these teams that are in the Cup.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: Let's be you watched did you watch South Africa yesterday?
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: South Africa's terrible. South Africa. That's an awful team. I mean,
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: I'll watch that game. I'm going come on. I understand
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: the qualifications are all territorial, geographical and all that stuff, but.
• 40:00
  Speaker 7: Which is part of the problem, right, Because which is
• 40:03
  Speaker 7: why I think more people almost watch the Euros. You're
• 40:06
  Speaker 7: a championships I think are the best. They happen two
• 40:08
  Speaker 7: years separate of the worldtop, but that's when everyone is
• 40:11
  Speaker 7: dialed in, and to me, that's probably the best soccer
• 40:13
  Speaker 7: on earth. You don't have the Brazils and the Argentina's.
• 40:16
  Speaker 7: I get that, but most of the most of the
• 40:18
  Speaker 7: best teams on earth are in UEFA.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Any So, when we look at this US team, and
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: it's very important because people are tired of being told.
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: Well, the future's coming, the futures here.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: I've been hearing that, Connor, I'm fifty seven years old.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: I've been hearing that for fifty years. The futures here.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: It's only a matter of time before the US dominates
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: his sport. How many times have you heard that in
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: your lifetime. It's only a matter of time since I
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: was knee high to a grasshopper. Okay, And for some
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: reason they haven't gotten over the top. They can't make
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: the move. Now you have many reasons why. But I
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: recall and I wanted to bring this up because I
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: heard this the other day. I gave it to Nelly.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: Do you remember in twoy seventeen the US failed to
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: qualify for the twenty eighteen Cup, and that was a
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: really talented team. They failed to qualify for the Cup.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: Everybody got fired, everybody got let go. I will never
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: forget the rant that Alexi Lalas went on on national television.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: And you've heard pro athletes, former pro athletes skewer like
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: Charles Barkley skewered the Spurs the other night. We've heard
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: guys go on the air and go off. But trust
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: me when I say this, when you hear Alexi Lalas,
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: it will go down as one of the more legendary
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: rants in the history of sports broadcasting.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Play it back for US, Dolly.
• 41:38
  Speaker 8: Tim Howard, Tim, the Belgium game ended three years ago.
• 41:41
  Speaker 8: We need you to save the ball now, Jeff Pamrack
• 41:44
  Speaker 8: clean it up, or let's get someone who will. Clint Dempsey. Yeah,
• 41:47
  Speaker 8: you're a national team legend. Now we need you to
• 41:50
  Speaker 8: be a national team leader. Michael Bradley. The US does
• 41:54
  Speaker 8: not need you to be zen. The US needs you
• 41:56
  Speaker 8: to play better. Josie Altador. Is this really as good
• 41:59
  Speaker 8: as it gets, because it's still not good enough. Bruce Arena.
• 42:02
  Speaker 8: Bruce Jurgen Klin's been lost at home to Mexico. You
• 42:05
  Speaker 8: lost at home to Costa Rica. This is now all
• 42:08
  Speaker 8: on you, not Urgan. Oh and by the way, to
• 42:11
  Speaker 8: all the guys that I didn't mention it because you
• 42:13
  Speaker 8: don't even warrant to mention and that includes you to
• 42:15
  Speaker 8: wonder Boy.
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: So what are you guys gonna do?
• 42:17
  Speaker 8: You're gonna continue to be a bunch of soft, underperforming,
• 42:20
  Speaker 8: tattooed millionaires. You are a soccer generation that has been
• 42:23
  Speaker 8: given everything. You are a soccer generation who's on the
• 42:26
  Speaker 8: verge of squandering everything.
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: So now it's time to pay.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: It back, make us believe again.
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: You don't know what to yourselves, you know it to us,
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: and get off my lawn. It's so epic.
• 42:42
  Speaker 7: I mean, and I remember watching that live pick and
• 42:45
  Speaker 7: I was like, I was literally like yes, yes, yes,
• 42:49
  Speaker 7: because that's the accountability that they needed to hear and
• 42:53
  Speaker 7: frankly don't get enough of.
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, interesting, Connor are a lot of softies
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: hate Alexi Lawas for that.
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: They hate them.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: And if you hate that, if you hate accountability, I
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: will label you a softy because.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: That's the guys, right.
• 43:08
  Speaker 7: But that's a guy who worked to make that ninety
• 43:10
  Speaker 7: four team and work to help build high level soccer
• 43:14
  Speaker 7: in this country. You know, that ninety four team spread
• 43:16
  Speaker 7: out to every you know, new MLS team.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: Alexi Marcello was on that team, right, he was.
• 43:23
  Speaker 7: So we got Balboa as as a founding member of
• 43:26
  Speaker 7: the Colorado Rapids. Lawless goes to New England Revolution, John
• 43:29
  Speaker 7: Harks to DC United, so on and so forth. So
• 43:32
  Speaker 7: this is a guy who worked, you know through the
• 43:35
  Speaker 7: you know, ninety was a disappointment. Ninety four at home,
• 43:39
  Speaker 7: they had all this momentum going and the fire in
• 43:43
  Speaker 7: the fight was there, and I I don't blame him
• 43:46
  Speaker 7: for a sort of watching what they have now and
• 43:49
  Speaker 7: not being able to do anything with it. A bunch
• 43:51
  Speaker 7: of that's why I performing tattooed millionaires, I mean, just elite.
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: What a fantastic line.
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: Well, it worked temporarily because it's still a problem. They
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: still can't get past it. And in the US players
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: they said, well they need, you know, more experience overseas. Well,
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: all these guys on this on this team, they're all
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: overseas guys.
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: Most of them are, right, most of them are.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: So we'll see how far they take it in this Cup.
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: But I'm gonna tell you right now, if the US
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: can't get out of group play, it's an outright disaster.
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: If they cannot get out of the first they've got it.
• 44:25
  Speaker 7: It's not the toughest group in the world, but it's
• 44:27
  Speaker 7: also not the easiest.
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: And it's also a home They're at home, they're playing
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: two games.
• 44:32
  Speaker 7: You're playing two games in the same stadium. You're going
• 44:35
  Speaker 7: La Seattle, La. You're staying in the same time zone
• 44:38
  Speaker 7: the entire group stage. So to me, there's no excuse
• 44:43
  Speaker 7: that pretty much the home base for training for everything
• 44:46
  Speaker 7: is in Los Angeles. They've made it very comfy and
• 44:48
  Speaker 7: cozy for you to win both the Paraguay and the
• 44:51
  Speaker 7: Turkey games. I would think that Australia and Seattle a
• 44:54
  Speaker 7: place that the US has played a ton of. There
• 44:58
  Speaker 7: are no excuses here for frankly did not win all
• 45:01
  Speaker 7: three games.
• 45:01
