  Speaker 3: God, we rushed for a buck, 83. My God. They
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: rushed for 51. I thought we were small.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: Scope Buffs. It's Bud Light Football Friday. Bud Light, the

  Speaker 4: official beer sponsor of the Denver Broncos. Remember to enjoy responsibly.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: Welcome back to Mosier, Lombardi, and Kane on this Friday.
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: The weekend is here. Buffs get a win last night
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: in just epic, dramatic walk-off fashion. Just a crazy fourth
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: quarter in Atlanta.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Garth Brooks showed up at the Grizzly Rose.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: Did he? Okay, you know what? I had heard that
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: people thought that that fake name at the Grizzly Rose
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: meant that Garth Brooks was going to do a secret show.
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: He actually showed up and did it.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, under the name Yukon Jack.
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: Because they had some of the local news people down there,
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: and there was a massive crowd just waiting all day.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: And so they were right.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Okay, so does that concert start this weekend at— For Garth?
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I imagine it has to. That's why he's in town.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he came in a day early, played
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: the Grizzly Rose last night, and I think he's going
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: to play ball this weekend. Is that right?
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: But see, the thing is, if you're a famous musician
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: and you're going to do a secret show. Yeah. It's
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: supposed to be a secret show. People showing up, they
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: should think they're getting some regular band out of Thornton.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: I think some people went Sherlock Holmes on this, and
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: they did a deep dive on the fake name that
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: he was using, and it was a fake name that
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: Garth used like 30 years ago or something, and they
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: had to do a deep dive to figure this out.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: And then it was just a guess. People were like,
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: this could be Garth. Garth Brooks might show up to
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: the Grizzly Rolls.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: And then he just pops in. All right, man.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Hey, it was cool, though. I'm sure for a lot
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: of people around the country who watch college football, my
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: buddy Catfish Jake, your buddy Catfish Jake, Vic. You know
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Catfish Jake in Nashville? The guy, he's thrown a lot
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: of catfish on the ice, right? Vic and him, he caught,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Vic caught him sneaking a catfish into ball arena. Great guy.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: I was a PI then.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: How exactly was he sneaking a fish? Where was the fish?
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: I patted down every single love, every single fan that
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: came into ball arena. I, uh, I went to work.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: He was, dude, while you're down there, would you mind? Okay.
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: So I get a message from him and he's like, dude,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: that game was boring. And I get that, but I'm
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: sure for a lot of college football fans around the country,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: it wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing game.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Not to the end.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Right, but for people here, and to have that game
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: be the only thing going on on ESPN for hours, dude,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: it was probably pretty cool for those kids. You know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: a lot of kids, like Bowling Green, we were talking
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: about the linebacker ESPN, he didn't get a whole lot
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: of TV time at Bowling Green nationally, so it's probably
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: cool for those kids. And so... Great win. Good stuff. Yeah.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: Happy times are here again for CU.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: I have no idea. Like, actually, the Rockies didn't play yesterday.
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: They start a series today as the season is coming
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: down to it.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Hey, Nelly, do you know who the Rockies play tonight?
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: What series they start?
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: You just hit on something. They're hosting the Cardinals. Stop
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: right there. Stop right there. You mentioned the Rockies. I
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: had no idea who they're playing this week.
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: I want to get back to that point where we
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: know who the hell they're playing in September series. Like,
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: where we can actually talk about, oh, yeah, Rocky's got,
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: you know, the Nationals this week.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Next week, they got the Astros.
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: I would love that moment where you know who's on
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: the schedule and you don't have to look it up.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: Well, that moment might not come until 2029 because the
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: odds that we have a baseball season– Do you see
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: a future in which the Major League Baseball's player association
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: folds to the demands of the owners this offseason? Do
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: you see it immediately, like within the opening three, four,
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: five months, so we can actually have a season next year?
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: I think if I made a prediction, you'd probably wipe
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: out spring ball, spring training, and have an abbreviated version
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: of that in April, May, and an abbreviated season.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: But I don't think you're going to wipe out the season.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I think it's just going to come down to it.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Well, they said there's two... Somebody mentioned some higher up.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: There's too much to lose on both sides. Historically, though,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Major League Baseball's player union has been the most powerful
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: sports union in all of professional sports.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: And the NFL Players Association is the weakest.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they have forever said we will never, ever,
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: ever accept a salary cap. Ever.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Here's the day of reckoning. It's upon us. So, we'll see.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Either way, yeah. I don't even know how we got
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: on the flipping rocky. Yeah, I don't know.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, I was just wondering who they're playing.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: They're starting a series against the Cards at home this week.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: All right, gentlemen.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: I want to dive into some NFL stuff, but I
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: want to hit you with a conspiracy theory right out
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: the gate. I'm going to hit you with a conspiracy
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: theory that deals with the Broncos. I do want to
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: talk a couple of interesting things from a ringer article about.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: The AFC West and ranking the AFC West.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: And then I was talking about how I think there's
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: three really good teams in the AFC West and who
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: knows about Vegas. And I got pushback like I wouldn't
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: believe from Twitch and Twitter saying, nah, man, you're way off.
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: There is not three good teams in the AFC. And
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: half of the people saying that were like, listen, the
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: Chargers are going to, they're not going to be what
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: you think they are. And the other half who disagree
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: with that statement are saying that, listen, the Chiefs are done.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: The Chiefs dynasty is over. Last year was not an anomaly.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: That's the new Chiefs.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: And I'm not sure if either one of those groups
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: is correct. So I do want to ask you that question.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: But this conspiracy theory is simply this. In the Ringer
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: article where they were talking about the AFC West, the
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: writer of the article closed the section of the Denver
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: Broncos like this. He said, listen, Sean Payton loves him
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: some Sean Payton. And he believes there is a possibility,
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: even though I think this is crazy, right? That Sean
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: Payton gave up play-calling duties knowing that it wasn't going
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: to go well early in the season and that he
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: could swoop in in the middle of the season when
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: the schedule gets easier and be the hero and take
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: the play-calling duties back. That's the conspiracy theory that he had.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: I'm for a good conspiracy theory.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: It's kind of crazy.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: But do you know why conspiracy theories come out?
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Why?
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Why? Because there have been plenty of conspiracy theories over
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: the years that are true.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but this one relies on Sean Payton wanting his
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: team to lose early or thinking his team is going
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: to lose early and then planning around that.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: That can't be the case.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Which is kind of weird. The pushback... We talked to
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Jeff Legwald about the play calling, right, Vic? Davis Webb now. Well,
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: the Chargers brought in Mike McDaniel. And he... And Harbaugh
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: went and targeted him specifically because... He wasn't a bad
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: play caller at Miami. He actually got plenty of production
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: out of Tua. So this guy, they think that this
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: guy is going to unlock all of Justin Herbert's tools
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: out of his toolbox. I guess we'll see. The Chargers
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: were an 11-win team last year without both of their
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: starting tackles. I don't know what they're going to be.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I think 11 wins is probably their max. But I think, yes,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: they're a good football team. What are the Kansas City Chiefs, Vic?
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: I have no idea. I don't think anybody knows what
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: the Chiefs are going to be. But if Patrick Mahomes
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: is healthy, he's the kind of guy, he's one of
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: those guys in this league that can float all the
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: boats on his own team.
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: Kelsey was such an important part of that success, that train.
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: And when Kelsey was going, And Mahomes found him in
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: key situations. It's third and whatever, and Kelsey's open. That's
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: what made them so dangerous. I don't know if Kelsey's
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: all there anymore.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: He's not.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: I have to see it with my own eyes.
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: And if he's not all there, if he's not the
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: player he was, then automatically they're not going to be
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: the same team.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: Well, the interesting point the article made is that if
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: you just asked everybody in a vacuum, who do you
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: think wins the AFC West, you might get a lot
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: of different answers.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: But.
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: But he said, you should ask yourself this question when
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: it comes to the AFC West, and it makes the
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: answer easier. If somebody had a gun to your head
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: and said, If your life is on the line, who
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: wins the AFC West? He said you automatically eliminate two teams.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: You automatically eliminate the Chargers because if that's the kind
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: of pressure that the Chargers are going to charge, so
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: they're gone. And you obviously can't put Vegas in that
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: conversation either. So then it does come down to the
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: Chiefs or the Broncos. And his proposal was this, that
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: a matchup between Denver and Kansas City is a matchup between...
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: A great roster and a great quarterback. And who comes
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: out on top? The great quarterback or the great roster? Well,
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: in the divisional playoff game, it was the great roster Right.
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: That beat the Buffalo Bills. And that great quarterback had... Well,
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: he was part... He was the reason that they lost that.
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: Game, man.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hold on a second. The Broncos quarterback outplayed that
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: great quarterback that day.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Well, he... That great quarterback threw for 460 yards against
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: He also threw the ball to the other team.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Or whatever it was.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Came it up like four times, bro.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: No, sorry. Their offense had 465 yards of offense. Yeah,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: he had the worst best day because Josh Allen played
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: at times great, and then he also turned the ball
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: over prolifically. So, well, what would I take? Would I
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: take the best thing?
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Great quarterback, great roster.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: Great quarterback, great roster.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: I'll take the great roster over the course of the season.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: Because a great quarterback is going to have some ups
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: and downs because the roster around him isn't as good.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Do the two of you agree with some of these
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: people on the text line that that last season was
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: the end of the Chiefs' dynasty? that Andy Reid, the
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: oldest head coach in the NFL, is washed and Mahomes
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: is too beat up.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. I don't believe in that, man.
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: You know, Tom Brady tore an ACL, came back and
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: played better than ever. I don't believe in that Mahomes
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: is done because he had an injury. You don't know
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: the competitor that he is. You don't respect the competitor
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: he is, if that's the case. Trust me, Mahomes is
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: just getting started.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Maybe this is the past lingering in my gray matter,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: but I would say this. underestimate Patrick Mahomes at your
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: own risk. Underestimate Andy Reid at your own risk. And, Bert,
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: you have to remember, these guys have played a lot
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: of important football in recent memory, the last eight years.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: A lot of important football. And that wears on you.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: You've seen it in hockey. When a team plays a
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: lot of important hockey, like what happened, the Florida Panthers
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: played Lost a cup, won two cups, and then what
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: happened last year? It was a total physical and mental collapse.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Just crash out.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Right, because when you play that much, you're going to
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: have to have a break. What I don't want to
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: do is underestimate how much the Chiefs sucking, getting that
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: hunger and desire back, but not playing important football at
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: all last year, how much that is going to help
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: buoy them this year. I just, I don't think they're
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: going to be that good, but I do not want
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: to underestimate those guys because of their track record and
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: they still have the witch under center.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm here for it. It's going to be a
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: fun seat.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: I mean, It could be 11 wins, 10 wins, 10 wins,
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: and then what the hell ever Vegas is going to do.
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: I mean, it could be close.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: We'll take a timeout. When we come back, we'll hear
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: from the voice of the Rams, Brian Roth.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: That is next. Bud Light Football Friday.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: It's the weekend. It's time to get riggity, riggity, wrecked some.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Is Roth pre-gaming already? Is that what he's doing? Yeah. Yeah.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: I mean, the border war isn't until tomorrow, but yes,
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: Brian Roth is probably pre-gaming starting right now. Matter of fact,
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: let's bring in the voice of your CSU Rams as
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: he gets set for tomorrow's big game between the Rams
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: and the Cowboys. Brian, how you doing?
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: Welcome to the program.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: Thanks for giving us some time.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Thanks, gentlemen.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: Appreciate you having me. And no, I'm not pre-gaming yet.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: It happened this afternoon, I think.
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: Be a lot cooler if you did.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Wait for the broadcast.
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: It's always the best time to pre-game. Brian, who plays
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: for CSU? I'm going to ask this question about every
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: university at this point.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Who plays for the Rams?
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: I mean, I was out there in the spring more
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: than I ever have been just trying to learn the roster.
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: And I was out there here in the fall last
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: month more than I have in previous falls just because
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: You're trying to figure out who's who out there, who's
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: going to be the key guys on offense, who are
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: going to be the key guys on defense. And so, yeah,
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know how the Vegas guys put
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: spreads out there these days for like week one games
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: because you just have no idea. And I guess all
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: you have to do is see the UMass and Rutgers
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: game last night. And you just don't know. You don't know.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: So who's the quarterback here?
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: Names to know for the Rammies.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: So, so the quarterbacks will either be case on for our,
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: he's a redshirt freshman transfer from UConn. Jim recruited him
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: out of Virginia beach. I didn't see a lot of
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: action last year at a UConn, but when Jim took
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: the CSU job, a lot of players started to, you know,
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: go into the transfer portal. And so he actually got
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: the start in their bowl game. I think it was
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: a Fenway bowl or the pinstripe bowl, one of those two.
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: So He actually made a start last year, and he's 6'3,
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: really quick delivery, more of a pocket passer, but the
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: dude can run as well. He's a dual threat. And
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: then Haas Haney is the other guy in that quarterback competition,
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: a former four-star kid. Went to TCU as a true freshman.
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: He's a really, really good athlete. Played a little bit
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: as kind of an athlete at TCU. Went to Oklahoma
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: State last year. Won the starting job in fall camp
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: at Oklahoma State. Played in the season opener. Led him
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: on two touchdown drives his first two drives of the season.
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: Had a passing touchdown, rushing touchdown, and then he broke
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: his foot and he missed the rest of the season.
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: He was back in the transfer portal and ends up
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: at CSU. But Haney is a true dual threat, six foot,
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: and he can run. I think he's still maybe the
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: fastest guy on the team at this point. And, you know,
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: play breaks down, Haney's going to be able to run. So, yeah,
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: it'll be interesting to see who runs out there on
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: Saturday afternoon against Wyoming.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Pride of Aledo, Texas. Aledo, Texas.
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: That's right.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: You know where we know that from?
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: No, why should I know?
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Landman.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Better than Bob Thornton?
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's exactly right. It's west of Fort Worth. That
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: being said, we talked last week, and I told you, dude,
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: I'm excited about Jim. I mean, when we had him
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: on the program after he got hired, he was here
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: on the show for an awfully long time. And I
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: like this guy. And I like the fact that he chose,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: this is kind of his final stop. He's all in, Brian,
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: and he's... committed to being a Ram. And it's like
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: going home for him and all this kind of thing.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: And I think he's a damn fine football coach. What's
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: the vibe around, around Ford Collins. And what's the vibe
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: around people who have supported this team for an awfully
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: long time with what they think more can do. Yeah.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: I think everybody's really excited about what Jim Moore can do,
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: but you know, we're caution. We're cautiously optimistic up here
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: because four years ago I thought, and so did everybody
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: else that Jane Orville was a great hire at CSU. And,
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: He wins at Nevada, and those facilities are awful in Reno.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: So why wouldn't he win big at CSU with the
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: facilities that are among the best, a group of six?
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: And it didn't work out for whatever reason. There's the
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: same optimism with Jim Mora, but it's different because Jay
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: was a young head coach, not in age, but in experience.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: That was his first job at Nevada. Meanwhile, you look
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: at Jim's resume, obviously at UCLA and did well there
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: for the most part, has turned UConn around. UConn's not
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: an easy place to win, guys. I mean, it's independent.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: The stadium's in Hartford. The university's 40 minutes away in stores.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: He won 18 games the last two years there. And then,
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: of course, four years as an NFL coach and led
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: the Falcons to an NFC championship game. So he brings
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: in a professional attitude, though, towards the football building and
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: the attention to detail. And I talked to a bunch
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: of the guys that were here last year and I said,
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: what's the biggest difference? And they kind of laughed. They said, man,
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: we are working so much harder and being felt like
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: they're being held accountable more than they were in previous years.
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: So it has a professional attitude over there. Now, the
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: big question is how does that translate to wins? And
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: we're going to find out and Ram fans are hoping
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: it translates to a lot of wins.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting.
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: Over the course of the Norvell era, even before him,
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: CSU builds that wonderful stadium.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: And Canvas is wonderful.
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: It's one of the nicest outfits for a university I've seen.
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: And they didn't take advantage of it by winning. And
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: it just didn't translate. You got to do it this
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: time or that stadium.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's for not. You got to fill that
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: sucker up because if you don't fill it, what's the use, Brian? Yeah.
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: You know, the sad thing is, and this is going
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: back in the weeds a little bit, but 2017 is
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: when the stadium opened. The Rams had Oregon State on
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: the Pac-12, blew them out, and it was probably the
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: best team we've seen for CSU in the last 15 years,
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: the 2017 team. And they were 6-2 with a lost
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: Alabama early in the year, and they had Air Force.
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: They were a 14-point favorite in October, and never made
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: air force punt and, and they lost. Then they lost
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: a heartbreaker to Boise state. Then they lost a snow
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: game to Josh Allen. That could have been a 10
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: win season in 2017 in the first year of the stadium. Instead,
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: they went seven and six and lost in a bowl game.
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: If you go 10 and two that season, maybe win
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: a bowl game, 11 and two, maybe the vibe is different.
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: And maybe you kind of get that on track, but
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: you're right. They have not taken advantage on what, you know,
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: what is probably the best facility in the G six.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: What's an absolute fact, and I've been around here now
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: for 30 years, there are far more people in this
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: state up and down the front range with ties to
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: CSU than to CU.
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: More.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: More Rams people up and down in terms of just
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: affiliation with the university. there's got to be some sort
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: of trigger, Brian, that galvanizes these people, that gets them excited.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: I know this whole new Pac-12 is probably an interesting proposition.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: I call it now the State 12 because every team
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: in it right now is a state team. But there's
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: got to be some sort of trigger that happens for
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: these people because this languishing in no man's land really sucks.
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: You know, the funny thing is, is that CSU sold
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: out two home games last year. They sold out three
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: home games the year before. And the year before that,
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: they had a couple of subs. Now, all those sellers
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: are coming in September and October. You get to November
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: and you're not playing well. You know, there's not going
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: to be a lot of fans. But the people will
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: come if you win up here in Fort Collins. And
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: And there's a lot of transplants, too, up in northern Colorado.
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: I mean, heck, up and down the front range, right?
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: That maybe they're Ohio State fans or maybe they're Michigan
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: fans or USC fans, but they will latch on to
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: the local university with one caveat, that local university has
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: to win. And so that's been the problem with Colorado State.
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: But if CSU can win and Jim Moore can turn
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: this thing around, which I believe he can, the fans
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: will be there. I don't think there's any question about that.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: All right, so you open up against the arch rivals, Wyoming.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: It's the bronze boot.
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: I've always wondered this, and I'll get it from your perspective.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Who would CSU rather beat, CU or Wyoming?
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: I think most of our fan base would tell you
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: they'd rather beat Wyoming.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: That surprises me.
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, there's no question Wyoming's the chief rival
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: of Colorado State. Now, it doesn't help the fact that
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: Colorado and Colorado State aren't going to play again until, what, 2028, 2029.
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: And CSU has played Wyoming every single year since, what, 1946,
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: post-World War II. So that helps a little bit as well. But, yeah,
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: I mean, there's just so much more involved in the
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: rivalry with Wyoming. And you talk about the bronze boot.
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: I mean, that was a boot that was worn in
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: the Vietnam War. You talk about the pomp and circumstance
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: that's happening here today. They run the game ball from
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: one stadium to the other stadium every single year. The
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: ROTC cadets, the Wyoming guys run it, start it from
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: War Memorial Stadium. They'll hand off the ball at the
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: state line to the CSU ROTC cadets. Everybody meets, the
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: head coaches, athletic directors, they have band, spirit squad up
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: there at the state line. And then it gets run
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: to Canvas Stadium. I mean, guys, it's... The CU rivalry
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: has nothing that can compare to that. In fact, I'd say...
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: It has hatred.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: It has a lot of hatred.
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: It does have hatred.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, there's a lot of angst and hate, yeah.
• 22:02
  Speaker 5: There's just so many things involved in the rivalry with Wyoming. Hey,
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: don't get me wrong. I mean, Ram fans would love
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: to go out and beat Colorado. It hasn't happened in
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: way too long. But the Wyoming rivalry, I think, supersedes
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: the CU rivalry.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: Interesting.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Is there expectations? Is this a transition year? I mean,
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: what kind of expectations do you have for the team?
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: It's college football, 2026. There's no such thing as transition year.
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: I mean, if it was 10 years ago, you'd say, okay,
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: get more at two or three years. He's going to
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: get his recruits in here. He's going to build this program,
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: but now you just go into the transfer portal. You
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: bring in 70 plus new players and Hey, New Mexico,
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: who was with us in the mountain West last year,
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: they brought in 70 new players last year to a
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: program that was absolutely awful. that hadn't won at all,
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: and they won nine games last year with the first-year
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: head coach. And they're picked, I think, to finish second
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: at the Mountain West this year. So it can be
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: done in one year. And so, yeah, there's not a
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: lot of patience. Now, that doesn't mean I expect CSU
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: to go 10-2 this year, but I think a reasonable
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: expectation with this era of college football that we're in
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: is that Jim Moore can lead this team to a
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: 6-6 season and you go to a bowl game.
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: I don't know who plays for Wyoming either. I mean, again,
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: I don't know who plays for anybody.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Wyoming.
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: If you're, if you're the Wyoming Cowboys fan base, you.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Sort of got left out of that pack party. What
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: are they thinking right now?
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: Where do they end up?
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, are they content.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: To be right now?
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: He's still in the mountain West.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: What are they in? Change the name to Wyoming state
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: and they're in.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean, there's, and there's bitterness there too, because
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: you know, CSU and Wyoming played in the same conference
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: every year. since 1968. And then before that, they had
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: played in some of the same conferences too. Yeah. I mean,
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: in fact, the Wyoming fans, they call all those teams
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: that went to the Pac-12, they call them the Pac-Stabbers.
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: And there's bitterness there. Don't, you know, disbelieve that for
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: a second. But the rivalry is going to continue. But yeah,
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: if you're a Wyoming fan, if you're a New Mexico
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: football fan, you know, San Jose State, everybody that kind
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: of got left behind, not to say that the Rams are,
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: you know, look close to being a power four or
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: the PAC 12 is supposed to be a power for
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: a conference. It's not. And the PAC 12 is not
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: the PAC 12 of, of yesteryear. We all know that,
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: but it is another step closer trying to rise above
• 24:27
  Speaker 5: and be the best of the G sixes. And, and
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: if you're Wyoming, yeah, I absolutely think you feel like
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: you got left behind.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Okay. Last thing for you and appreciate your time. B
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: I I've always had delusions of grandeur for the Rams
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: and man, if they had, if, if they were playing
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: like they did when Sonny was the head coach and
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: They probably would have got an invite to the Big
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: 12 at some point. You know what I mean? Just
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: because they were a nationally recognized program, a top 25 team,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: and Sonny had it cooking. But nobody had any foresight
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: to look 10, 15, even 20 years down the road.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you could have predicted this. But
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: the foresight wasn't there. So what is the ultimate goal?
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: Is it just to be above the teams that were
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: left behind in the Mountain West and play in the
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: State Pac-12 and try to win there? Or is the
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: ultimate goal, you think, is there any lofty expectation that, man,
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: if we can turn this thing around and kick some
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: major butt, then maybe we will get an invite? to
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: the big 12 someday, because that would be, I, you're
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: going to have to wrap up this question at some point.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: That would be a super long question. That was a
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: super long question.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: I got to lay it.
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: It's still going.
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: I mean, it's still, if I didn't write, if I
• 25:38
  Speaker 6: did not, I swear to God, we'd still be going
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: with this question.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: I bet I got to lay it all out there
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: because you need to have all the fat up, bro.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Just wrap it up.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: What's the question.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: What's the ultimate goal.
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: Well, the goal of the Pac-12, just to start there,
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: is the Colorado State wanted to align itself with other
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: like-minded schools that wants to invest in football and college athletics.
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: And CSU has done that. We have a president, Danae B. Parsons,
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: who is pro sports. She believes with all her heart
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: that athletics are the front door of a university and
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: it's going to rise the entire university if you can
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: have a good football program. So CSU just wants to
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: be as high as they possibly can. Are they going
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: to get an invite to a Power Four conference? Not
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: as it stands right now, no. But what do the
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: conferences look like in four or five years, right? I mean,
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: is it going to be a break off of the
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: top 40? And if it's a break off of the
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: top 40, I think CSU, if they win football games
• 26:38
  Speaker 5: in the next four or five years, positions themselves to
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: be in that next group of 60, maybe whatever that
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: looks like. Cause I have no idea what college football
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: is going to look like, but I believe that within
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: the next five years, certainly 10, there's going to be
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: a breakaway from those, those top schools with all the
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: money and they're going to make their own league. And
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: then everybody else is going to play for whatever the
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: second tier, I guess.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Are there enough boosters?
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: At CSU, there are enough big money boosters to push
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: them to that, whatever that forefront might be that new league.
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: I don't know if they have any Cody Campbell's like
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: they do down there in Lubbock or Phil Knights up
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: there in Oregon, but you know, Pat Stryker is probably
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: the biggest one and Dave Stryker. I think it's what
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: like they make hospital beds and other things. And Pat,
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: Pat Stryker's a, She's a billionaire. They're family. And she's
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: done great stuff up in Fort Collins. Love Sonny Lubick.
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: But I don't I don't know if a massive hundred
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: million dollar check is coming to see us. She's way
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: anytime soon.
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: My sister went there. You might want to call her,
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: see if she can get some. So I'm going to
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: Brian Roth, the voice of the Rams. I'm going to
• 27:53
  Speaker 6: end this interview by asking a Mosher like question.
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: So bear with me here.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do a Mosher like question. There will
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: be a question at the end of this.
• 28:00
  Speaker 6: So, Brian, you know, when you're looking at the landscape
• 28:02
  Speaker 6: of college football, so many teams coming and going.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, the leagues are different.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Conferences are different.
• 28:08
  Speaker 6: Stanford's an ACC team now. And then you look at
• 28:12
  Speaker 6: the wealth of power, like the Big Ten has become
• 28:15
  Speaker 6: so much more powerful. The SEC, my goodness, the independents.
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: I don't know what the military schools are going to
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: do anymore. Is Air Force, Navy, Army, are they going
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: to survive? Anyway, we saw you at Valley Country Club
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: last week.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: What did you shoot?
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: I shot 75. I shot, but the previous Friday I
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: was at Fort Collins country club and shot 87. So
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: I was about ready to put my clubs into the basement.
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: I'm like, it's football season. I'm done. But then I
• 28:45
  Speaker 5: got coerced and not coerced. I got invited out to
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: play with my buddies at Valley and shot 75. And
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: then I was on the phone making a tea time
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: that afternoon. Clubs are not going to the basement anytime soon.
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: So Yeah, like anybody, I can be good and I
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: can be god-awful.
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: All right, well, that's Brian Roth, the voice of your
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: CSU Rams. You can hear him tomorrow as the Rams
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: take on Wyoming in the border.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Brian, thanks for hopping on. We appreciate it.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Thanks, brother.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: See you, buddy. Yep, appreciate you guys.
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: Thanks.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: That's Brian Roth. Yeah, Mo's broke. There was no end.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: There was no end.
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: You were just going to keep going, man.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: I understand that.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: I understand that sometimes you start a question not knowing
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: what that question is going to be, and you work
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: your way into it, but you've got to wrap that
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: stuff up, man.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: No, no, man. You're a professional. You've been doing this
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: for 30 years. It's a complicated thing.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: No, no, it's not.
• 29:35
  Speaker 6: We can play back the question, and I can break
• 29:37
  Speaker 6: it down for you if you want. We can play
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: it back. You simply did not have a question to ask.
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: You wanted to, but you didn't have one. So I
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: know this game. You don't have a question, so you're
• 29:50
  Speaker 6: buying time. You're buying time by just talking. Until you
• 29:53
  Speaker 6: get a question. And sometimes you don't even ask a question.
• 29:57
  Speaker 6: You just make a statement.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: There were like four of them in there, but you
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: have to lay out the entire premise so that he understands.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: No, you don't.
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: He would have understood. No, you don't.
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure he would have understood. Yeah. No, I
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: don't think so.
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: He's a great man. It's Bud Light Football Friday. We
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: will roll on with Moshe Lombardi and Kane after this. Oh,
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: by the way. Welcome back to Moshe Lombardi and Kane
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: on this Bud Light Football Friday. Gentlemen, I had no
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: Brett Kane today. Oh, by the way, one of my
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: favorite segments of all time, and I will start it
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: simply with this. We're talking about pre-gaming. We're talking about pre-gaming.
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: Last week, last week, I don't know if you heard
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: about this, last week, I don't know if it's a
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: bunch of criminals, but some guys stole 34,000 cans of
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: Pat's Blue Ribbon.
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Saw that.
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: I saw that.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: That was in L.A., right?
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: And yesterday in Britain, somebody stole.
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: $ 155, 000 worth of Guinness. They just took the whole damn truck.
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: They also stole the truck. They stole the truck and $ 150, 000
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: worth of Guinness. What you going to do with a
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: full truck, 150,000 cans of Guinness? How long would that
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: take you to go?
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: Well, you can't fence the truck because... everybody's going to
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: know it's a Pabst Blue Ribbon or Guinness truck, right? Right, right, right.
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: They said the truck by itself was like $ 70, 000.
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: It's not like just some random box truck you could
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: offload to a criminal enterprise. I mean, maybe you could
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: and they can strip it and whatever, but I don't know.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: How do you fence the beer? Like, hey, you want
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: a sixer of Blue Ribbon on discount? Here you go.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: I'll take four bucks for it.
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: PBR's already cheap. What, you're going to sell that for
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: a nickel? Like, that's crazy, man.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Oh, by the way.
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: You noticed last night college football returned in its glory
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: and CU wins in dramatic fashion at Georgia Tech. The
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: game that preceded that one was perhaps more impressive only
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: because it's UMass, which was a 29-point dog against Rutgers
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: at Rutgers. Rutgers had won 16 games straight against UMass. Now,
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: Rutgers isn't known for the football mecca school, but it
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: had a distinct advantage in that game. They had to
• 32:25
  Speaker 6: pay the Minutemen $ 1. 5 million just.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: To play in that game, to take the game.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: And what happens?
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: Well, UMass wins.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Not only win, they win big.
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: They built a 24-7 halftime lead and win big at Rutgers.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: And to make matters worse... This is the best part.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: The best part is.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: They had a fireworks display after.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: The game anticipating a.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: Victory by Rutgers.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: I did not know that.
• 32:53
  Speaker 6: The Rutgers Stadium holds a fireworks show.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, no. They're like, we got all these fireworks. Did
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: they stay? Did people stay? We might as well blow
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: them up.
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: It was an empty stadium with fireworks.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: Hysterical. Well, what was.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: UMass, because that snapped that 16-game losing streak, and they
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: get to win, and everybody's happy. And their quarterback, I
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: don't even know that dude. He just came out of
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: nowhere and was just balling last night. But UCF put
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: 73 on their opponent. I mean, it was Bethune-Cookman or whatever,
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: but they... I mean, 73 points is fairly impressive as well.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: We got word of this just a little while ago. Oh,
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: by the way, Ben Simmons has a job.
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's crazy.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Ben Simmons is signing a contract.
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: He still can't shoot a basketball, right?
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: He is signing, though, a contract with the Sacramento Kings
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: at $ 3. 5 million per. Apparently, Nelly, what's his body now?
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: His body is what?
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: He's in tip-top shape.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: His body's healthy, man.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: His body's healthy. Okay, whatever. But, Vic, Ben Simmons has
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: a gig.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: He got the vet minimum, 3.5.
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: I think it's a one-year deal to show the rest
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: of the league that he can play again.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: We'll see if he can play. We'll see if he
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: can shoot.
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: Because the reason he's no longer in the league, he
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: just wouldn't shoot the ball. He had the yips, the
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: shooting yips.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, see, I have no idea what to expect. Oh,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: by the way, I've got another one. Yeah. Do you
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: guys remember what happened almost a year ago?
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Wow, that's a pretty broad-based question. I was going to say,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: come on, man.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: Well, here it is. Mark Sanchez got stabbed.
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: Oh, and he just... Did he plead to someone, or
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: he admitted his guilt or something?
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: Just yesterday?
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: He was allegedly, what, hammered in Indianapolis, right?
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: Right, and there was that driver. There was an Uber driver,
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: and he was like, get out of my spot.
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: I'm waiting for food. And the Uber driver's like, what
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: are you talking about?
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: I'm parked here.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: He was a truck driver, but he was in the spot. Anyway,
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: he's pleading guilty. That's what I do when people are
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: in my spot. You're like, get the.
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: You pull a knife on him? Or are you just like,
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: get out of my spot?
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: I will knife you, old lady. King Soopers.
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: That's rough, man.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: He's a 69-year-old truck driver, and.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: It's 1230 in the morning, and so he.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: Sprayed Sanchez in the face with pepper spray because Sanchez
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: was coming after him.
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: But Sanchez didn't stop even when he sprayed him.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: That's right. He's like, this guy's trying to kill me.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: So he whipped out his knife and he stabbed Sanchez.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: And now Sanchez has to plead guilty to charges. Anyway,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: I just thought I'd bring that up because I'd forgotten
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: all about that. Okay. Yeah.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: Well, you know what?
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: Oh, by the way, how is it that Bill Belichick
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: and his son seem to be having more problems Sex, drugs,
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: and rock and roll at college in their 60s than
• 35:29
  Speaker 4: I did.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: Like, I mean, what is going on in North Carolina, man?
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: Lombardi's bailing. Now there's reports. I mean, the investigation at UNC,
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: that whole scenario is messed up. But Bill Belichick had
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: a midlife crisis at like 70, and now he's just
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: going crazy in college.
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: It is nuts. It's weird.
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: You wonder how long it's going to last. I don't know.
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: I don't know what happened to him.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, we did put a clock on it,
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: and we did recap.
• 35:55
  Speaker 6: In the last segment, we had Brian Roth, CSU's play-by-play
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: guy on, and Mosier attempted to ask a question, just
• 36:01
  Speaker 6: a basic question.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Here's how the question went.
• 36:04
  Speaker 6: Just take a listen to how many different categories he
• 36:07
  Speaker 6: hit before asking the actual question.
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: And the only reason he asked it is because I
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: had intercede.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Okay, last thing for you, and appreciate your time, B.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: I've always had delusions of grandeur for the Rams. And, man,
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: if they were playing like they did when Sonny was
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: the head coach... They probably would have got an invite
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: to the Big 12 at some point. You know what
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: I mean? Just because they were a nationally recognized program,
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: a top 25 team, and Sonny had it cooking. But
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: nobody had any foresight to look 10, 15, even 20
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: years down the road.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: 30 seconds. I don't know if you can predict this.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: But the foresight wasn't there. So what is the ultimate goal?
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: Is it just to be above the teams that were
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: left behind in the Mountain West and play in the
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: State Pac-12 and try to win there? Or is the
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: ultimate goal, you think, is there any lofty expectation that, man,
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: if we can turn this thing around and get some major,
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: but then maybe we will get an invite. to the
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Big 12 someday because that would be... You're going to
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: have to wrap up this question at some point.
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: That was a minute. That was a minute.
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: Wasn't it a minute, Nelly?
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: Almost a minute, yes.
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: Guys, if I didn't jump in there, he'd still be going.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: Do you think he'd still be going?
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: Right now.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: I might, but that's important.
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: Brian, it was like four or five mm-hmms even before.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: It's a very broad, broad, broad topic.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Just admit your brain stopped working. Your brain stopped and
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: you just went. It's a broad, broad topic.
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: You've done this most of your professional life, man.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a broad topic.
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: I still don't know what the question was.
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: Right. I don't either.
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: I don't know where you're headed with that.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: You asked him. What's the goal?
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: You did mention the Big 12 like five times. I
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: know because this whole.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: Thing is so frustrating and ridiculous. This might go down
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: as one of my worst Colorado feelings of all time
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: for sports. There was no foresight up there, man. They
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: blew it. They absolutely blew it.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: What's the question?
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: What's the ultimate goal?
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: Mosher, your response to that.
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: What's the ultimate goal?
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: Could you imagine if Mark Mosier was in charge of
• 38:08
  Speaker 6: play calls in Bo Nix's ear during games?
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: Oh my God, he's still going. You know what, Vic?
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: Actually, that might turn Bo Nix into Peyton Manning. Because
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: what would happen is Bo would just have to say
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: to hell with it, I'm calling myself.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: Exactly right.
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: So he'd just call the offense himself and Mosier would
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: be talking to nobody.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Nobody.
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: You'd have that headset on, you'd think you're doing good work,
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: and everybody else has just got you on mute, bro.
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: That's exactly what would happen. Exactly what would happen.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: But either way.
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: All right, it's a Bud Light football Friday.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: Is this the first Bud Light?
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: No, that was last weekend for week zero in college football.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: Were they on the road last week? I forget.
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: Vic's got some high school football that you can hear
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: on the station tonight.
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: Who are you calling tonight?
• 38:51
  Speaker 6: Chaparral versus Legend at the Battle of Parker, Colorado.
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: You can hear it right here starting at 7 p.m.
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: as those two teams go head-to-head. That game will not
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: be four hours and 20 minutes like the Buffs game
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: last night was, right? Like, that game kicked off at 6.20
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: because of the weather delay. And I think we wrapped
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: it up at, like, was it 10.30?
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: 10.30 at night?
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: Something like that? Maybe later is when the Buffs blocked
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: that field goal and walked it off.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, hopefully.
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: Hopefully this high school game tonight doesn't quite last four
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: and a half hours.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: But you never know.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: And the landscape. And, you know, when Sonny was there,
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: and then, you know, I just.
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, man.
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: Jared Bender would hit you in the face if you
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: asked him that question. What the hell are you talking about?
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: You don't think I've asked him a question like that
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: in the past? No, I'm sure he has. I've asked
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: him a thousand times.
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: I'm sure he holds it against you to this day.
• 39:42
  Speaker 6: Well, maybe.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Maybe. But you got to get the context out there, man.
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: No, no.
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, not that deep of a context.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: In the future of humanity.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: When you go to Mars.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: That's just crazy.
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: Your Saturday morning just got local. Altitude Sports Radio Saturdays
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: start tomorrow with four straight hours of local sports talk
