  Speaker 1: thank you for all the support. First and foremost, you know,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: just really appreciate everybody listening, downloading, you know, whether you're
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: running errands, wherever you're listening to the show the podcast,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: we appreciate it. So as the sports governor of Minnesota,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: I just want you to know I truly appreciate each
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: and every one of you out there for all the
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: support over all the shows, over all these years. All right, man,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: let's just get to it here, because even though we're
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: in the NFL offseason, we got the combine going on
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings again, this quarterback thing and now with some
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: movement on the defensive side of the ball, because Vikings
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: may be looking to trade a couple players, make some
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: moves there. So now it's not only the quarterback situation,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: it's the defensive side of the ball. Vikings. All of
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: a sudden, Vikings got all kinds of issues in a
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: division that you know, outside of Detroit, is getting better
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: or has gotten better. I mean, you know, got to
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: give the Bears their props. And even with all those issues,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: the quarterback situation just continues to haunt the Minnesota Vikings.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about that in one quick minute. Shout
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: out to the Minnesota Gophers both basketball teams. By the way,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Nico medved coach Don over there with the ladies, and
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: to start with the ladies, you know, finally being ranked again,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: just phenomenal what coach Don is doing over there and
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: what is really being built back up since the day
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: is obviously back you know, around two thousand, Lindsay Whalen,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Janelle Macarbo, all those ladies when they made their run
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: in the NCAA tournaments. But I gotta say, man, very
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: impressed with how the way the ladies play, stay in games,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: and even in the games that they lost, you know,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: they're scrapping. So we're really going to put a big
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: focus on them here in the next couple of weeks.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Also on the Gophers men's side too, because they you know,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: probably won't make the nc Double A's, but Nico's really
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: building something over there, and if he can just kind
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: of you know, put those teams together get those players,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: you know, like basically like he did at Colorado State.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I think that's really gonna help this program and also
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: raise some money here as we try and figure out
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: here in the land of Gophers NIL where that's coming from,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: you know, minus the corporate giving. We've talked about that
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: on a couple other podcasts. Corporate giving not what you
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: would think would be with all the corporate headquarters up here.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: It's not like these people just throw money at the
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: University of Minnesota. And also the people that run these companies.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: You know, this was something that was told to me
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: from another sportscaster. They didn't go to the University of Minnesota,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: and their support know is with other schools and they
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: want to give their support there. So just another thing
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: that kind of complicates the NIL picture up here in Minnesota.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: With that being said, there is a lot of room
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: here for a lot of improvement, and I hope that
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: the Gophers can figure it out. But that's that's talk
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: for a different time. I'm just very very happy to
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: see what's going on with the basketball program making a
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: resurgence over on campus there, so congrats to them, and
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: here in the next few weeks obviously, March Madness, Postseason
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Attorneys Conference Attorneys coming up. It's gonna be very interested
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: to see what the lady Gophers can do and see
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: if they can make a run deep in the in
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the Big Ten tournament here as well. So congrats to them,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: and congrats to Nico over there with the men as well.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Minnesota Wild just wanted to talk a little bit of
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: hockey here. We're going to reach out to some of
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: our hockey contacts here as well, because you know, first off,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: props men women gold medal over there at the Olympics.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Well done, especially the ladies. Man just dominant over there
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: and always good matchup USA Canada. You know what more
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: can you ask for if you're a hockey fan there. So,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: as we are now getting back into the NHL season,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the Minnesota Wild, I'm gonna tell you something. Man got
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Quinn Hughes, you got Carell Boldye, the goltending the tandem solid.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, is this the best chance that the Minnesota
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Wild have? Listen, Let's just you know, obviously you want
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: to get to the Stanley Cup. That goes without being saying,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: but is this their best opportunity to really make a
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: run at the Stanley Cup at least a d playoff run,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: because I think what they say since twenty fifteen or something,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: first round exits, and the way they've been playing this season,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the way it looks on paper, you gotta say, so
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: now it has to play out, has to happen. But
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: you know, the addition of Hughes' carell only a couple
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: of goals away or something like that from becoming the
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Wilds all time goal scorer. By the way, this may
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: be the year, Minnesota Wild fans, This just may be
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the year. And in a you know, state that's rabid
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: with hockey fans, we know how it is, it would
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: be nice to see the pro team finally make, you know,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: an appearance in the Stanley Cup, win the Stanley Cup,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: but at the very least get to that deep playoff
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: run there. So yeah, it's it's very cool to see.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: And even though they lost last night to Utah one
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the night before in their comeback game against Colorado, So
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: let me check the standings here real quick on the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: monitor here in the situation room again Vince Right, sports governor,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: hearing the Sports Done Right podcast, and because yeah, let's
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: see what we got. Yeah, Wilder had eighty points, Avalanche
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: at eighty five, Dallas Stars always right there as well,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: seventy nine, and then over in the Pacific Division Las
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Vegas seventy points leads it over there. So Wild what
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: second place in the conference. Gotta like that. Got to
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: like that. But like I said, other teams out there
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: and in these series, obviously anything can happen. And one
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: thing that I love about the hockey playoffs, man, the
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: way that puck finds the back of the nets sometimes
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: is in freaking credible. So you know, a lot of
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: bad bounces become goals. But excited to see what the
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Wild can do and see how they come back and
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: step into the second half of the season here post
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: the Olympic break. So shout out to the Minnesota Wild.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: And let's get over to this Vikings thing, because you know,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: we've talked about the Minnesota Vikings, you know, maybe looking
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: to trade a defensive lineman or two, make some moves
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: on the defensive line, and we've talked about that before.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: We talked about that with Thorn from Scoring North when
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: he was on you know, just it's been a minute
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: since we've had that dominant Minnesota defensive line that we've
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: kind of grown accustomed to here. So you know, I'm
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: looking at a picture in the situation room, the Neil Hunter,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Lynnville Joseph back in the day. You know, we can
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: name names and go forever. But I also think that
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: this quarterback situation is just I don't know, how do
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: we get here? How do we get here with the
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. I really don't know. It's funny. I'm looking
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: at a list of Vikings quarterbacks here on just Wikipedia
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: and just going from like nineteen ninety. I mean, the
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: list is long. The list is so long, and some
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: of the names that have come through Viking Land. Obviously
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: you heard of, you know, rich Gannon, Wade Wilson, my
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: main man, Tommy Kramer, but we've also had Sean Salisbury.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: We've also had Jim McMahon. We've also had Warren Moon
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: play here. We've also had obviously Brad Johnson, Randall Cunningham
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: in the infamous nineteen ninety eight season, I'm coming in
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: for an injured Brad Johnson Randall. Then the following year
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: he kind of loses a Jeff Jorge comes and remember
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: that Jeff George coming in for a minute. Dante Culpepper
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: comes in. He kind of runs it for a minute,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: but all the I mean, we can still keep going.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Tavaris Jackson, Gus Farrott was here for a minute, obviously,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Brett Favre, bad draft pick, Christian ponder Case, Keena Miny,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Minnie Appolis, miracle Man, Teddy Bridgewater, Matt Cassell, back in
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: them Mouth, Sean Man and Kirk Cousins, Joshua Dobbs, Sam Darnold.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Oh Man, that's a lot of names, people, That is
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of names. And I think the Minnesota Vikings.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: You know, there's there's been some talk here recently. We're
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: gonna play a clip from Pro Football Weekly, Mike Fleurio,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Chris Simms, real good show that I like that I
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: do follow, And I just don't know, man, because none
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: of these options really kind of get you going, you know,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: even if you want to bring in Aaron Rodgers, like great,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: here we go another Packer retread years past the prime.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: But you know, hey, you know you can say that
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: about far but at least we got to that NFC
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Championship game, as ugly as it ended. But I don't know, man,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: it has just been very interesting and disappointed obviously, the
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Vikings just made the wrong call and it's costing them.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: They let Donald go, let Jones go, and not that
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: you know, I was the biggest Jones guy when he
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: was with the Giants. But you know, obviously he found
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: a nice situation before he got injured down there in Indianapolis.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: And now the Gopher or Gophers, the Vikings looking at
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Jones's backup is possibly coming up here. So let's play
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: this clip here. It's about two and a half minutes
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Pro Football Weekly courtesy to them, Mike Florio Chris Sims
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: talking about the Viking situation.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: It emerged yesterday as it relates to the future of
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: the local quarterback, or at least one of them here
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: in Indianapolis.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: We don't know what's going to happen with Daniel Jones
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: and the Colts. I fully expect him to be back.
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: Anthony Richardson has received permission to seek a trade, and
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: not long after that surface Cameron Wolf of NFL Network
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: reported that the Cults and the Vikings have mutual interest.
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: Five point three million dollars is what Anthony Richardson is
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: oed this year, and Richardson and JJ McCarthy would have
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: a true competition, and I don't know who would win.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I really don't. It's not Aaron Rodgers and JJ McCarthy.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: Where we know Rogers.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: Isn't going there unless he's the guy.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: This is a true, genuine if it happens.
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: McCarthy a top ten pick from twenty twenty four, Richardson
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: a top five pick from twenty twenty three.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Richardson all ready sent to the bench coincidentally by Daniel Jones.
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: The guy that didn't want to stay in Minnesota because
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: he didn't think he'd be able to beat out JJ McCarthy,
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: because he thought Kevin O'Connell would work his magic on
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: JJ McCarthy and Jones yea his first round our top
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: eleven pick. But Jones knew if he came to indy'd
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: have a fair shot to win the job, and he
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: did so. Now Richardson's out, and it's possible possible at
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: this point that the Vikings addressed their quarterback situation by
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: adding Anthony Richardson in a trade with the coltson It'll
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: be Richardson and McCarthy, and made the better quarterback win
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: the starting job.
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: Okay, so there's some interesting things here. Anthony Richardson we
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: know has all the talent in the world. That's that's well.
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: Note I mean we've seen him. He can make some
• 14:40
  Speaker 6: of the damnedest throws, the damn just runs. He's big,
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: so he's got all that, but we also know he's
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: still raw. We're still talking about some of the same
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: things we talked about when he came out of Florida.
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: Hasn't played enough, hasn't got enough reps, none of that
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: us been there, so that's an issue.
• 14:55
  Speaker 7: Definitely hasn't been able to stay on the field and
• 14:57
  Speaker 7: stay healthy, so he hasn't been able to really work.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: On his craft to the to the extent that we.
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: Would all like, especially people in football, the quarterbacks, all
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: of that. So he's got all this star potential and ability.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: But at the same.
• 15:13
  Speaker 7: Time, Okay, so here's my scenario with Anthony Richardson. I
• 15:19
  Speaker 7: don't I think, I don't know if Minnesota would be
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: the right situation.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I really don't.
• 15:24
  Speaker 7: I look at it in first off, and I don't
• 15:26
  Speaker 7: know if Anthony Richardson's right for Minnesota.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Well, there you go, and that's exactly what I'm talking about.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Vikings just lost and it's gonna be very interesting because
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: they're gonna bring in somebody. I think they they want
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: to bring in somebody that can play, that can start,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: that's gonna push JJ from the get go, that basically,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: you know, put the fear of God into JJ. That Hey,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: my job is definitely at stake. You know, we all
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: seem to know that, everybody. I'm sure he does too.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you know, he's the NFL football player.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: He knows how this game is played. What have you
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: done for me lately? And the problem is JJ hasn't
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: been able to stay on the field to get honestly evaluated.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: There's been some some good times, a lot of bad times.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: But who do you bring in? Do you bring in
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers? What does that look like? You know, there's there.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: You know you've all heard the names out there that
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: are available. Do they bring back Kirk Cousins. I'm not
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: a fan of that. I think you got to find
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: a way to just move forward, somehow, some way stop gaps.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean yet, you bring in Aaron
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Rodgers for a year, maybe, I don't know. I mean
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: that just you know, same with Kirk Cousins. And then
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: how much money are you going to be paying these guys.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: So Vikings really in a kind of predicament, not not
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: kind of really are just they got to figure this
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: crap out, man. And you know, you don't want to
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: be wasting Justin Jefferson's time because you know you're on
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: You're definitely on the clock with him as well. Don't
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: forget that because JJ ain't gonna be sitting around taking
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: this shit. You know, I talked about I made an
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: appearance on the two Live stews here about a week
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: ago based out of Atlanta. Great uh, you know nationally
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: as well. They're on the radio show or radio station
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: in Detroit and jumped on in the morning before work
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: since they're out on the East Coast in the morning,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: and we were talking about that. You know, Justin Jefferson
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: is definitely watching all this playout, and you know he
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: think about this. With all the quarterback crap that went
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: down last year, he still eaked out over a thousand yards.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: If we had a real quarterback back in here, he
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: may have gone for over two thousand yards receiving last year.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: And you know, I've talked to a few of the
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: people that follow sports done right, same thing. You know,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: it's just like Justin is not going to be sitting
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: around too much longer, waiting for the next quarterback, waiting
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: for the next quarterback or all these you know, these
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: retreads coming in, So Vikings, I don't know, man, time
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: to hit the draft, time to maybe do something. But
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: because you know, I'm gonna tell you, if JJ doesn't
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: get it going early this year and proving points early
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: this year, it's gonna get real dicey up here in Vikingland.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: So there you have it. On the Minnesota Viking side
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: of things, man, I don't know. I don't know. So
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Minnesota Timberwolves, however, six and four in their last ten
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: right now, sit eight and a half games behind the
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City Thunder. And by the way, shout out to
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: the San Antonio Spurs, man win Bignona down there they have.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: They're ten to zero in their last ten games. They're
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: on an eleven game winning streak forty three and sixteen,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: two games behind the Thunder twenty one and six at home,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: twenty one and ten on the road. And I'm telling
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: you something, man, Okce San Antonio, and props to Houston
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: too with KD. I mean, I didn't think Houston was
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: gonna be as much of a factor seven games or
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: excuse me, seven and a half games behind the Thunder,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: but they are the third seed as of right now. Now,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: granted from there on down, you know, you win a
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: couple of games here there, you can jump three spots.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: That's how, you know, just jumbled the rest of it is.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: And you know, Timberwolves thirty seven in twenty three, two
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: game winning streak, eight and a half games back, but
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: to they are two games in front of the Lakers.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: They are technically tied right now. So with the four
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: seed Denver Nuggets and our ant Man coming out of
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: All Star Weekend, it's kind of the let's just say,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: a new face of the league. Truly, we always knew
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: that here in Minnesota. Obviously he's the face of our franchise,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: but you know, winning, you know, the MVP out there
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: for All Star Weekend has really put him on a
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: national level. I think he's kind of embraced it a
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: little bit, and I think that's what kind of maybe
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: led to the altercation after hitting that shot the other night,
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: getting getting in the coaches grill a little bit. But
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: I think ant Man's ready. I think he's ready to,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: you know, really be like now, He's got to do
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: it on both ends of the court if you want
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: to be the legendary face of the franchise, and in
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: a sense maybe take that over from Kevin Garnett in time.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: In time, calm down, people, sports governor, here's you in time.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: But you know, you got to face it. He's well
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: on his way. He's been the two Western Conference finals
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: and if you know, he could help lead the Minnesota
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: Timberwolves to the finals, you know that's more. That's one
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: step further than we got with KG. So we will
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: see here. But I love the tenacity.
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: I heard some people and talk about his interviews and
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: you know street mentality, always cussing and things like that.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: I hear you. I can't help all that. All I
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: know is on the basketball court the charity work that
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: ant does. And you know, I'm just gonna tell you, man,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: because the Minnesota timber they to figure it out, because
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: if the Timberwolves go out early, and again this is
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: the Sports Done Right podcast, if they go out early
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: this year, I think Chris Finch has gone as coach
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: number one. You know, I'm not going to get into
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: who who replaces him? Who do you bring in? Who
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: do you look to That's that's kind of talk for
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: a different time. But I do think that if that
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: does happen, or if by chance, I don't know, they
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: hit a little losing streak and find themselves on the
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: outside looking in. Maybe now, I don't think that'll happen,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: especially with playing games all that stuff, but you never know.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Chris Finch could be gone, could
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: be looking for a new coach. Obviously some players are
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: going to be gone. And personally, what I would like
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: to see as the sports governor is, you know, I
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: come from a time where role players, bench players could
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: come in and just kind of feel to fill the
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: roles for a few minutes. You know, if you were
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: a Bulls fan back in Georgetown, you know John Paxson,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Vinnie Johnson, back with you know Detroit when he when
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: he came off the Mint before he wound up start.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, just bench players that would come and just
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: do their role. And I think the Timberwolves need to
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: develop that bench a little bit more, get a few
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: more people playing. But I'm not the coach, so I'm
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: gonna have some Timberwolves experts coming on here as we
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: approach the playoffs one thing, and I forgot to bring
• 23:41
