- 0:25Speaker 2: by Adam Schefter of ESPN. Adam, how are you doing
- 0:28Speaker 2: this morning, gentlemen?
- 0:29Speaker 3: What's going on?
- 0:30Speaker 2: Are you over the craziness that was Super Bowl Week?
- 0:33Speaker 2: Do you got a chance to chill or not yet?
- 0:36Speaker 3: Well, we're trying to, but it's not going so well
- 0:38Speaker 3: to chill just yet. We're trying to settle into a
- 0:41Speaker 3: little bit of time off. I said this all the time.
- 0:44Speaker 3: It's like the people that have relationships with the crust
- 0:47Speaker 3: the league date a bye week during the year right
- 0:50Speaker 3: then their season and they're off for a little bit
- 0:51Speaker 3: of time. We had no bye week. We had no
- 0:54Speaker 3: time off like then. We had to combine tuition from today.
- 0:57Speaker 4: Yeah, I would argue that you're busy time of the
- 1:00Speaker 4: year is probably that no tampering window whatever they call that,
- 1:04Speaker 4: when your phone's off the hook. That must be crazier
- 1:06Speaker 4: than any any period of the season.
- 1:10Speaker 3: You're very perceptive, Vic, and I would say that my
- 1:12Speaker 3: single busiest month of the year. People don't believe it
- 1:15Speaker 3: is March. The entire month of March like that, that
- 1:18Speaker 3: month is number one. Now we'll see this January with
- 1:21Speaker 3: the ten openings and the playoff games, that that was
- 1:23Speaker 3: busier than normal this year. But the month of March
- 1:27Speaker 3: going away, by and large, usually is the single most
- 1:31Speaker 3: chaotic and and worst month of the year.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Well, going back to the way that the season ended
- 1:37Speaker 2: with the Super Bowl, one thing that myself Vic most
- 1:41Speaker 2: discussed heading into the Super Bowl game was Drake May
- 1:44Speaker 2: looked oddly bad against the Broncos and then weather came
- 1:48Speaker 2: in and he looked oddly bad in that Super Bowl
- 1:51Speaker 2: as far as just throws off target when he was
- 1:52Speaker 2: the most accurate quarterback in the league this year. How
- 1:55Speaker 2: hurt was he? How hurt was that shoulder in that
- 1:58Speaker 2: stretch injured?
- 2:00Speaker 3: Look, he was a full participant in practice, They shot
- 2:03Speaker 3: it up. He was able to go out there. Do
- 2:05Speaker 3: I think he was one hundred percent?
- 2:06Speaker 5: No?
- 2:06Speaker 3: Do I think it impacted him to a certain extent.
- 2:08Speaker 3: Do I think that his offensive line, and Seattle's defense
- 2:10Speaker 3: impacted him more. Probably if he had time and wasn't
- 2:14Speaker 3: going against the defense as good as Seattle's or Denver's,
- 2:17Speaker 3: I think he would have been productive. I mean, the
- 2:19Speaker 3: guy had a great year. The shoulder was banged up,
- 2:22Speaker 3: but you know what, Sam Darnald zoe Blee got shot
- 2:24Speaker 3: up all during the playoffs two. So like everybody's got something.
- 2:28Speaker 4: Did the game surprise you at all? Did anything evolve
- 2:31Speaker 4: from that game that made you go out? It didn't
- 2:32Speaker 4: surprise me, I don't. I think it happened the way
- 2:35Speaker 4: I thought it was gonna happen.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I expected New England to play a competitive game,
- 2:39Speaker 3: and it really was not a competitive game. I mean,
- 2:41Speaker 3: for a moment there at the end, you thought maybe
- 2:43Speaker 3: New England could get back in. But Seattle dominated the
- 2:45Speaker 3: game more so than I expected that they would.
- 2:49Speaker 4: You know, we were talking earlier this week. These defenses
- 2:52Speaker 4: now that are being built. You have more room for
- 2:55Speaker 4: air on defense, because on offense, if you lose a quarterback,
- 2:58Speaker 4: you're done. If you lose a key running back, oh boy.
- 3:01Speaker 4: On defense, you can put together a resource in the trenches, linebackers,
- 3:07Speaker 4: and these defense is sort of the wave of the future.
- 3:10Speaker 4: Is that what we're going down. The NFL teams are
- 3:12Speaker 4: going defense first.
- 3:14Speaker 3: You know big. I don't know it's the way of
- 3:15Speaker 3: the future. I mean these things you say go back
- 3:17Speaker 3: and forth. I think the league is all about offenses
- 3:20Speaker 3: and this fantasy age, and people love offense, and when
- 3:24Speaker 3: teams are hiring coaches, they want offensive mind that hey
- 3:26Speaker 3: coaches generally speaking. But I mean, go back to the
- 3:30Speaker 3: Miami Dolphins, uh no, name defense. Their defense was the
- 3:33Speaker 3: key to them winning Super Bowls. And then we saw
- 3:36Speaker 3: the Chicago Bears, right, they were outstanding, and then the
- 3:39Speaker 3: Baltimore Ravens they were great, and then the Legion of
- 3:41Speaker 3: Boom and Denver's defense in this Seattle iteration. So like,
- 3:46Speaker 3: I'm not saying we're going back to that. Like, I
- 3:48Speaker 3: think defense is always big. It's just a question of
- 3:50Speaker 3: whether you can build a defense as good and as
- 3:52Speaker 3: dominant as the one that Seattle had this past season.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Adam Scheffer with us. All Conversation with Adam or brought
- 3:57Speaker 2: you by Colorado Credit Union, Love where you Live, Love
- 3:59Speaker 2: where You Bank at Colorado Credit Union joined today at
- 4:02Speaker 2: CCU dot org. Saw you send this out the other
- 4:05Speaker 2: day and It's something that personally I don't like. I
- 4:09Speaker 2: don't think it would be good, but it looks like
- 4:10Speaker 2: it might happen, which is expanding the ability to trade
- 4:13Speaker 2: draft picks to five years as opposed to three. Now
- 4:16Speaker 2: I think about this in the NBA, when they're trading
- 4:18Speaker 2: twenty thirty two picks, it almost feels fake to me.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Do you think this will help the league facilitate trades
- 4:25Speaker 2: or what's their purpose behind this?
- 4:27Speaker 3: Well, it's not coming for the league, and it's just
- 4:29Speaker 3: a proposal that's being bandied about, and I have no
- 4:31Speaker 3: idea whether it will or won't pass. I just now
- 4:34Speaker 3: have heard it come up a couple of times. So again,
- 4:37Speaker 3: it's just an idea that I'll be kicked around this offseason.
- 4:39Speaker 3: For all I know, the Competition Committee won't even vote
- 4:42Speaker 3: on it. That's certainly possible.
- 4:43Speaker 2: But gotcha.
- 4:44Speaker 3: It was brought to me at Super Week by somebody.
- 4:48Speaker 3: They're like, hey, the league should do this. This team
- 4:50Speaker 3: may propose it. I have no idea what the league's reaction.
- 4:54Speaker 3: They may say not happen over end of discussion, but
- 4:58Speaker 3: I can say there are people that have been thinking
- 5:02Speaker 3: about it and are going to propose it.
- 5:03Speaker 4: That.
- 5:03Speaker 3: I'll tell you the.
- 5:05Speaker 4: Broncos are going to have some extra change to work
- 5:08Speaker 4: free agency this year. The Russell Wilson moneies off the books.
- 5:11Speaker 4: When do these conversations start taking place? I know they
- 5:14Speaker 4: got this no tampering. I know you're not supposed to
- 5:16Speaker 4: publicly say anything, but come on, you can't tell me
- 5:19Speaker 4: that teams aren't at least speaking the agents starting now.
- 5:23Speaker 3: Well, I think there might be some preliminary phone calls VIC,
- 5:27Speaker 3: But honestly, the truth of the matter is, I think
- 5:29Speaker 3: once everybody goes to Indianapolis for the Scouting Combine in
- 5:32Speaker 3: two weeks, that that really is the unofficial start of
- 5:34Speaker 3: the off season, and there are all sorts of meetings
- 5:37Speaker 3: that go on there, agent shopping the top free agents,
- 5:40Speaker 3: and it's not supposed to be a great free Asian class,
- 5:42Speaker 3: but those conversations are going on the lobbies of the
- 5:45Speaker 3: hotels that were staying in and so you know, I
- 5:48Speaker 3: you know, I can't tell. Any times I walk by,
- 5:50Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, look at that team meeting with that agent.
- 5:52Speaker 3: I think, you know, so it's it'll be going on.
- 5:59Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say it's not happening right now, but
- 6:01Speaker 3: it's certainly not happening the way it will in a
- 6:02Speaker 3: couple of weeks.
- 6:03Speaker 2: What do you think the interest level will be for
- 6:05Speaker 2: guys like Kyler, Murray and Tua if he becomes available.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Considering that Sam Donald was one of these re tread
- 6:12Speaker 2: quarterbacks they got extra opportunities fifteen and he won a
- 6:16Speaker 2: Super Bowl, does that change perspective on how people view
- 6:18Speaker 2: guys like that.
- 6:21Speaker 3: Look, I think we've seen the resurgence of quarterbacks in
- 6:23Speaker 3: recent years, from Baker Mayfield to Sam Donald, to Daniel
- 6:27Speaker 3: Jones to others like It's not uncommon, and it's really
- 6:31Speaker 3: about putting a quarterback when he has talent in the
- 6:34Speaker 3: right system, with the right coaches and the right belief
- 6:38Speaker 3: and confidence in him. Kyler, I think the Cardinals would
- 6:42Speaker 3: be open to trading him, But you know what, there's
- 6:44Speaker 3: not a lot of quarterbacks out there. They may look
- 6:45Speaker 3: around and say, you know what, he's better than we can do.
- 6:48Speaker 3: Let's hold on to him for another year. That could happen.
- 6:49Speaker 3: Two is gonna be very hard to trade because of
- 6:52Speaker 3: the finances involved ninety nine point one million dollar dead
- 6:55Speaker 3: cap charge. But you know, Miami, if they can trade him,
- 6:58Speaker 3: if you could trade him, we would certainly love to
- 6:59Speaker 3: do that. I just don't know that trading too is possible.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Is it allowed in the NFL? Because I know that
- 7:04Speaker 2: the NBA does this, MLB does this. Can you trade cash?
- 7:07Speaker 2: Is that a thing in the NFL?
- 7:09Speaker 3: Well, well, you could pay down some of the contract.
- 7:12Speaker 3: So like if you're trading Tua, I don't know what
- 7:15Speaker 3: he's supposed to make this year. Let's just call it
- 7:17Speaker 3: thirty five million. Sure we'll pay We'll trade you Tua
- 7:20Speaker 3: and thirty million. But that gets factored into the return
- 7:23Speaker 3: that you get too. So like if you're paying a
- 7:25Speaker 3: lot of money down, you might get a higher pick. Now,
- 7:27Speaker 3: if you're paying no money down, it might be a
- 7:29Speaker 3: seventh round pick. We're just talking here, right.
- 7:31Speaker 2: Like, is that what like the bronck Oswaller trade back
- 7:34Speaker 2: in the day was when to get part of them?
- 7:36Speaker 3: Exactly, That's exactly right. Houston paid down a bunch of
- 7:41Speaker 3: money and got back picks and yeah, so there's all
- 7:45Speaker 3: sorts of ways to do it.
- 7:46Speaker 4: Hey, I'm wondering about how teams assemble coaching staffs. And
- 7:50Speaker 4: we know the Broncos ownership, they got deep pockets, they're
- 7:54Speaker 4: very well versed in this game. They do such a
- 7:56Speaker 4: great job. Davis Webb gets a promotion. Maybe he's got
- 8:00Speaker 4: some inquirries elsewhere to go, be a OC or whatever.
- 8:03Speaker 4: Can a team pay the off an assistant coach as
- 8:06Speaker 4: much as it wants. There's no cap on coaches, right.
- 8:08Speaker 3: Yep, yep, yeah, no, no, that's one hundred percent. Brian
- 8:13Speaker 3: dave Ball cash in this offseason because Tennessee was so desperate,
- 8:17Speaker 3: you know, making somewhere around six and a half million
- 8:20Speaker 3: dollars a year. I just paid offensive coordinator of the game.
- 8:24Speaker 4: Wasn't Fango the highest paid before DC before? He's thinking
- 8:28Speaker 4: about retirement now? Is that what you're hearing from victim?
- 8:32Speaker 3: He's coming back next year? Oh he is, He's coming back.
- 8:35Speaker 3: He'll be back next year.
- 8:36Speaker 4: Why was he even on the fence.
- 8:39Speaker 3: He's sixty eight years old, done in a long time?
- 8:43Speaker 3: Does it? Probably gives him extra leverage and gets him
- 8:45Speaker 3: a raise because they don't want to lose him. They said, okay, Vicky,
- 8:48Speaker 3: he says, he says that thing, and retiring. They say,
- 8:51Speaker 3: how much extra do you want?
- 8:53Speaker 4: And uh.
- 8:55Speaker 3: He wands up, staying as he is.
- 8:57Speaker 4: Gone that They said, retire, ye exactly.
- 9:02Speaker 2: So let me ask you something because you know everything
- 9:05Speaker 2: about everything about this sport and what happens Transactually, do
- 9:09Speaker 2: you find out when a guy is hired as a coordinator,
- 9:12Speaker 2: an assistant coach or head coach how much money they're making,
- 9:16Speaker 2: like anytime that somebody assigned and I get because there's
- 9:19Speaker 2: cap restrictions. With players, we know exactly the years, the
- 9:22Speaker 2: dollar amount, the guarantees. Do you know that with coaches
- 9:26Speaker 2: and just we don't talk about it or do they
- 9:28Speaker 2: not tell you.
- 9:31Speaker 3: Coaches are more private about their salaries, but I know
- 9:37Speaker 3: the more notable ones. Certainly, I know, Hey, coaching salaries.
- 9:43Speaker 3: It's just information, and the more information you have, the
- 9:47Speaker 3: better off it is. So I sort don't know every
- 9:51Speaker 3: coach's salary, believe me. But when there's a coordinator or
- 9:55Speaker 3: a coach that gets hired, I mean I know right away,
- 9:58Speaker 3: but I usually know it, or if I don't know what,
- 10:00Speaker 3: I certainly will be able to find out.
- 10:02Speaker 2: That is interesting because I've always wondered like, is there
- 10:05Speaker 2: more pressure on coaches if you knew that Davis Webb
- 10:07Speaker 2: was making five million year now and the offense isn't
- 10:09Speaker 2: good as they're more.
- 10:10Speaker 4: Pressure on him, just like there's pressure on players with
- 10:12Speaker 4: big salaries. Of course there is.
- 10:14Speaker 3: I know what Davis Webb's making, but it's not five million. Yeah,
- 10:17Speaker 3: it's three million, not three million. I won't leave it there.
- 10:20Speaker 4: It's three point five.
- 10:22Speaker 2: Adam, you're gonna get a kick out of this. I
- 10:24Speaker 2: told Vick this story once I found out how much
- 10:26Speaker 2: Pat Shermer was making as the OC when he was
- 10:28Speaker 2: here at Network. Because I went to buy a car
- 10:32Speaker 2: and the guy goes, what do you do for a living?
- 10:33Speaker 2: I work on Altitude Sports radio. He goes, oh, I
- 10:35Speaker 2: listen to your show. Actually. I was like, oh, that's great,
- 10:37Speaker 2: and he goes, yeah, sure, we're just bought a car
- 10:38Speaker 2: for me. He makes three million a year. And I
- 10:40Speaker 2: was like, I don't think that's something you can just
- 10:41Speaker 2: tell me. But thanks, I got information. Now I feel
- 10:44Speaker 2: like schefter. He got it through his credit check.
- 10:46Speaker 4: Apparently you could just check out stuff like that.
- 10:49Speaker 3: Well that's that's some sort of violation that that guy breached.
- 10:53Speaker 3: But whatever.
- 10:54Speaker 2: Exactly right.
- 10:55Speaker 4: Well, if you need a car, Adam, he's got the
- 10:57Speaker 4: guy for you.
- 10:57Speaker 2: Adam. If I ever diss you information, just no, I
- 11:00Speaker 2: recently bought a car. That's all you need to know.
- 11:02Speaker 3: What kind of car?
- 11:03Speaker 2: No, I haven't lately. I'm just saying, if I ever
- 11:05Speaker 2: give you information for you to report, it's because I
- 11:08Speaker 2: just bought a car from somebody, That's all.
- 11:10Speaker 3: But usually my best sources in car dealers.
- 11:14Speaker 4: All right, So what what stories are are you working
- 11:17Speaker 4: on now between now and the combine? What what happens
- 11:21Speaker 4: in this two week window? Just more assistant coaches get jobs?
- 11:24Speaker 4: What what's happening here?
- 11:26Speaker 3: You know, big, I'm not working on anything, to be
- 11:28Speaker 3: honest with you, I'm working on decompressing for about a
- 11:31Speaker 3: week or so for back into it for the busiest
- 11:34Speaker 3: month of the year. Like I said, it's it's I
- 11:37Speaker 3: love my job, but it is it's a long season,
- 11:40Speaker 3: and uh, you know, you get to the end and
- 11:42Speaker 3: you just feel like you need to take a little break.
- 11:44Speaker 3: So just take a little break here, kind of recoup,
- 11:48Speaker 3: refresh yourself, and come back strong for the month of March.
- 11:54Speaker 2: So I know when the Combine rolls around, it's that's
- 11:56Speaker 2: where a lot of the meetings happen. Like we talked
- 11:58Speaker 2: to Jeff Legwalld a week and he says, at the combine,
- 12:01Speaker 2: that's where everybody's meeting with everybody's agent and stuff like that.
- 12:04Speaker 2: How much with the draft process do you feel like
- 12:09Speaker 2: you're being fed information that might not be true that
- 12:12Speaker 2: you need to be careful with or No.
- 12:15Speaker 3: No, I don't view it that way at all. And like, again,
- 12:21Speaker 3: I've done this for thirty six years. So like last
- 12:24Speaker 3: night is, for example, I had a GM call me
- 12:26Speaker 3: on his way home from work and he was telling
- 12:27Speaker 3: me he's in draft meanings. He was going over a
- 12:29Speaker 3: few players that he loved. Now again, we're just talking.
- 12:33Speaker 3: He's my friend, right, he's not lying to me, talking
- 12:37Speaker 3: to a regular But they're not lying to me, as
- 12:40Speaker 3: I like to say. They might not be telling you everything.
- 12:42Speaker 3: I get that, of course they both hold certain information,
- 12:46Speaker 3: but they're not lying. They're not They're not saying, oh
- 12:48Speaker 3: I love this quarterback when they're targeting the running back,
- 12:50Speaker 3: like not doing that. That that's I know people have
- 12:53Speaker 3: that idea, but that this is not how it works,
- 12:56Speaker 3: at least not for me. Yeah, you know, I've done
- 12:59Speaker 3: this a long time. People people are pretty honest and
- 13:03Speaker 3: they'll share and they're like, don't just don't share that,
- 13:06Speaker 3: and you under confidential in private and what's not and uh,
- 13:11Speaker 3: And that's how you form a lot of your pool
- 13:16Speaker 3: of information like again, this this person last night talked
- 13:18Speaker 3: to about a few players, like again, Like I said,
- 13:21Speaker 3: I'm not really working, but I began to accumulate information
- 13:24Speaker 3: in my mind on certain people already last night, just
- 13:27Speaker 3: in a regular call, was one of my friends, that's.
- 13:29Speaker 2: All, Like Vick, I'm trying to remember. Didn't Sean Payton
- 13:33Speaker 2: say something like he felt like he tricked some team
- 13:36Speaker 2: about them liking was the Vikings? Like he pretended he
- 13:40Speaker 2: like JJ McCarthy and he feels like he tricked them
- 13:43Speaker 2: or something.
- 13:44Speaker 3: They'll call up to say they want to trade up
- 13:46Speaker 3: for a certain guy, you know. But you know, again,
- 13:51Speaker 3: I'm not I'm not saying I'm above it or or
- 13:53Speaker 3: anything like. I'm just saying it's not like there's not
- 13:56Speaker 3: like these lies going on. I not. That's not what
- 14:00Speaker 3: I'm trafficking in. I don't think I've been completely dupe
- 14:03Speaker 3: for the last couple of decades.
- 14:05Speaker 4: Speaking of the Vikings, I'm glad I just remember this.
- 14:09Speaker 4: They need a GM. They fired theirs, and I keep
- 14:11Speaker 4: seeing George Payton's name come up. He's in the final
- 14:13Speaker 4: year of his contract. Here. Is there any evidence that
- 14:17Speaker 4: George Peyton may be a candidate for that job.
- 14:20Speaker 3: I know, the names come up. I have you know,
- 14:23Speaker 3: I was running a lot of Broncos people at the
- 14:24Speaker 3: Super Bowl. I didn't get any indication that was the case.
- 14:27Speaker 3: George still has kids in high school. I believe. I
- 14:30Speaker 3: don't think he's looking to leave. Did it happened one day? Sure?
- 14:34Speaker 3: Would Minnesota be interested? I'm sure? But my understanding is
- 14:37Speaker 3: George is pretty content and Denver is intent upon keeping
- 14:40Speaker 3: him in Denver.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Adam Schefter joins us every single week.
- 14:44Speaker 4: Oh wait, do you notice anything different about me?
- 14:49Speaker 3: Any yellow? A yellow shirt?
- 14:51Speaker 4: No, it could be no, something else. Just take a
- 14:54Speaker 4: good long gander.
- 14:56Speaker 3: Well, you're in like a little box, so it's hard
- 14:58Speaker 3: for me to tell Vick.
- 15:00Speaker 4: Yeah, I live in a box. Yeah see it worked. Thanks,
- 15:03Speaker 4: that's all I needed to know.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Vic painted the roof, got a little color.
- 15:07Speaker 4: Scheme in Oh yeah.
- 15:10Speaker 3: That's interesting. Okay, Well I didn't even notice.
- 15:13Speaker 4: Yeah, just keep that between us.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Hey, tell me which front office or coaches in the
- 15:18Speaker 2: league do that? How about that? You got any information
- 15:21Speaker 2: on that? Who gets botox? Who just for mends their hair?
- 15:26Speaker 3: No clue?
- 15:27Speaker 4: Come on, Michigan guy, you hate Ohio State. You know
- 15:29Speaker 4: Ryan Day paints that stuff.
- 15:32Speaker 3: You know my wife, he said to me, I'm fifty nine,
- 15:34Speaker 3: right make She's like, oh, you should call your sides
- 15:36Speaker 3: like I don't do anything, and I'm like, you know whatever,
- 15:40Speaker 3: it turns great, turns gray, like that's what it is.
- 15:42Speaker 2: Do you know what? Do you know what happened to Vic?
- 15:44Speaker 2: Why he did this? The impetus for it is that
- 15:47Speaker 2: he watched the Super Bowl halftime show, took one look
- 15:49Speaker 2: at Ricky Martin and said, why can't I look like that?
- 15:51Speaker 2: That's why he did.
- 15:52Speaker 4: Guy's fifty four and he looks like he's twenty. So
- 15:55Speaker 4: I said, you know what, let's see if it works
- 15:56Speaker 4: for me now I look older.
- 15:59Speaker 3: Have you noticed have you noticed that you're having a
- 16:01Speaker 3: heart of time fending off the woman since you had
- 16:03Speaker 3: your color.
- 16:04Speaker 4: She's the one that walked me down there to get
- 16:05Speaker 4: it done. She basically said, you got to do something here.

- 16:40Speaker 4: of my hair renascence. Yeah, how much do you want
- 16:45Speaker 4: to make a bet that he comes back from Spain?
- 16:47Speaker 4: Either with dark hair he's gonna just copy me a tattoo,
- 16:54Speaker 4: maybe full facial hair, or nosering. One of the four
- 16:58Speaker 4: is going to you. Hey, Hey, Brett, you know Brett, Brett,
- 17:03Speaker 4: you know Moser.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Wait, did you ever watch The Office vic a little bit? Okay,
- 17:09Speaker 2: So what you're alleging is that Moser is Michael Scott
- 17:13Speaker 2: and you're Ryan from the Office, that he's just gonna
- 17:15Speaker 2: come Well.
- 17:17Speaker 4: That since I opened the gate for this, he's gonna
- 17:19Speaker 4: he's gonna pounce on it. He's gonna run right through it.
- 17:24Speaker 4: What do you expect to see different from him when
- 17:26Speaker 4: he returns? You're right, somebody said he might die his
- 17:29Speaker 4: soul patch. You're right. If he did that, I would
- 17:33Speaker 4: lose it.
- 17:34Speaker 2: I want to Jet Black Ryan Day's soul patch.
- 17:37Speaker 4: That's what I want to big time win.
- 17:41Speaker 2: Yeah, he's gonna have some sort of counter. I mean,
- 17:43Speaker 2: one thing is for sure gonna happen. He's just gonna
- 17:45Speaker 2: make fun of you for a while. I mean, that's
- 17:47Speaker 2: what's gonna be the first thing. What if he's gotta
- 17:49Speaker 2: be bl You're just packing hands in the back of
- 17:55Speaker 2: his jeans now from here on out. Oh yeah, what
- 18:00Speaker 2: is Spain known for? What do they do? Turkey's got
- 18:04Speaker 2: the hair plan els Diaz. Yeah, and we'll see when is,
- 18:11Speaker 2: by the way, Monday next Monday.
- 18:15Speaker 4: Don't have a schedule in front of me.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Well, here's what's funny. So Springer is watching Mosure's dogs and.
- 18:23Speaker 4: I Spring was at the Nuggets game last night. I
- 18:24Speaker 4: saw Spring.
- 18:25Speaker 2: I need Springer to watch my dogs too, and he
- 18:27Speaker 2: told me. He goes, he said when, and I'm gonna
- 18:31Speaker 2: be out Friday. I'll be back on Monday. And he goes, well,
- 18:36Speaker 2: here's the problem. I'm watching Moser's dogs until Friday. And
- 18:38Speaker 2: because it's Moser, I don't know if that means I
- 18:40Speaker 2: stop watching them on Friday or Friday's another full day.
- 18:43Speaker 2: I need to watch because Mosure's not clear about that stuff.
- 18:47Speaker 4: So what goes into watching your dogs? Like when you say,
- 18:50Speaker 4: do you just go in there and just watch them
- 18:53Speaker 4: with your eyes? Like what happens when you watch them?
- 18:56Speaker 2: Stays at the house, he feeds them, lets him outside
- 18:58Speaker 2: so they don't pee in the house. You know that fun.
- 19:00Speaker 4: Stuff, like all day. You stay there all day.
- 19:03Speaker 2: He doesn't stay there all day. It's just here's your job,
- 19:07Speaker 2: make sure my dogs don't die. And Springer is very
- 19:11Speaker 2: successful at keeping dogs alive. Uh yeah, that's it, Texture says,
- 19:16Speaker 2: can we talk sports please? I'm sorry? Did you miss
- 19:19Speaker 2: the sixteen minutes with Adam Schefter of esp on a
- 19:21Speaker 2: second ago?
- 19:23Speaker 4: Someone earlier said, how come you guys aren't talking about
- 19:25Speaker 4: the Nuggets? I'm sorry? Did you miss the first hour
- 19:28Speaker 4: of the show.
- 19:28Speaker 2: We will get back to all of ours just a minute.
- 19:34Speaker 2: Along with your final keyword on this apps take it Tuesday. Next,
- 19:38Speaker 2: your final keyword on this abs take it Tuesday, and
- 19:41Speaker 2: a chance to get in the building at Ball Arena
- 19:43Speaker 2: for the Abs and Wild on February twenty sixth is purple.
- 19:49Speaker 2: So text purple in your first and last name to
- 19:51Speaker 2: three zero three five O four oh nine two five.
- 19:53Speaker 2: Are you ready for Valentine's Day? Well, it's now cute.
- 19:57Speaker 2: This is Papa Murphy's has the Heart Baker pizza crust
- 20:01Speaker 2: that's baked and shaped like a heart, savory pepperoni, and
- 20:05Speaker 2: melted cheese ready to bake in your raven order Onlineopapamurphy's
- 20:09Speaker 2: dot com. But that last keyword is purple.
- 20:13Speaker 5: Uh.
- 20:15Speaker 4: Forty nine Ers star defensive lineman Keon White was shot
- 20:19Speaker 4: in the ankle after an argument with Little Baby at
- 20:23Speaker 4: a stripper party. Little Baby in his entourage attempted to
- 20:27Speaker 4: enter White's private event, leading to an argument between the two.
- 20:32Speaker 2: I believe that little Baby is shot and killed somebody already.
- 20:37Speaker 4: It's not him, it's someone from his entourage. Apparently little
- 20:42Speaker 4: Baby's got a little problem, big.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Problem doing that sort of thing. Yeah. Uh, you know what,
- 20:50Speaker 2: I'm gonna make a new rule in my life. Those
- 20:56Speaker 2: establishments are not places I frequented in any recent year.
- 21:01Speaker 2: But if I ever do find my way into one,
- 21:03Speaker 2: I'm gonna be nice to people. There's too many stories
- 21:10Speaker 2: of remember shotguns has the job Morant story. But that's
- 21:13Speaker 2: also where Josh Reynolds left when his car was chased down.
- 21:17Speaker 2: You remember that. Yeah, I'm just everybody is gonna be
- 21:21Speaker 2: met with a smile. If I'm in one of those places,
- 21:24Speaker 2: get out of my way, Yes, sir, sorry to be here,
- 21:26Speaker 2: My bad. So getting back to the Nuggets, VIC, here's
- 21:32Speaker 2: David Adalman post game on you brought this up. You
- 21:36Speaker 2: have a big concern about the home record this year,
- 21:38Speaker 2: which I do too. I have a larger concern about
- 21:41Speaker 2: just closing out basketball games, which seemed to have been
- 21:44Speaker 2: a problem. Here's what Adaman said.
- 21:46Speaker 6: Shoppy a lot of it, I think because of just
- 21:49Speaker 6: playing completely different ways with different lineups. It's really funny.
- 21:53Speaker 6: The group when we had everybody out defended pretty well.
- 21:56Speaker 6: We were switching everything. We're just kind of grinding through
- 21:58Speaker 6: possessions and now with some guys back on restrictions, trying
- 22:02Speaker 6: to get their conditioning back, and we're getting back to
- 22:05Speaker 6: being more of an offensive team. We have to find
- 22:07Speaker 6: a way to do both, and obviously, if you have
- 22:11Speaker 6: your better defensive players on the lineup, it's going to help.
- 22:13Speaker 2: So that's the first portion of this. And again you
- 22:16Speaker 2: can call that excuse making or reasons. It's always an
- 22:19Speaker 2: interesting discussion and thought exercise and how people view that.
- 22:23Speaker 2: I don't think there's any doubt, Vic. They're about eighteen
- 22:25Speaker 2: different variables at play here that's leading to some of
- 22:28Speaker 2: this disappointing these disappointing results. That's certainly a factor that
- 22:33Speaker 2: every night you seem to have a different starting or
- 22:36Speaker 2: a different five on the floor to close out a game.
- 22:38Speaker 2: And maybe you can't build chemistry at the end, like
- 22:40Speaker 2: you mentioned it in your post game last night when
- 22:43Speaker 2: you guys were talking with you, Dempson.
- 22:45Speaker 5: Katie.
- 22:47Speaker 2: Ag being able to cut to the basket, run that baseline,
- 22:51Speaker 2: p Watt cut into the basket, giving you a different
- 22:53Speaker 2: type of option. You know that's different. I will say
- 22:56Speaker 2: at the end of the game, though, if you told
- 22:58Speaker 2: me that Tim Hardaway Junior gets a wide open three
- 23:00Speaker 2: to try and take the lead, I'd take that play.
- 23:03Speaker 2: I don't know. It's weird.
- 23:05Speaker 4: You've heard of the four H Club. I have for you,
- 23:08Speaker 4: the three H Club, The three h's that worry me
- 23:12Speaker 4: right now about the Nuggets as we approach the All
- 23:14Speaker 4: Star break, health, which has been hard to come by.
- 23:18Speaker 4: It's number one reason they're choppy right now. Health number two.
- 23:23Speaker 4: I'm gonna call it hero because at the end of games,
- 23:25Speaker 4: you need a hero, right clutch play, and they have
- 23:28Speaker 4: not been good at the end of games. They just
- 23:30Speaker 4: have it. And number three is home. Their home record
- 23:33Speaker 4: is reflective of that. Fourteen and eleven, So the first
- 23:36Speaker 4: two lead to the last one health hero home. Yeah,
- 23:41Speaker 4: all three of those need to be fixed in some way,
- 23:44Speaker 4: some manner before they approach the playoffs. I don't care
- 23:47Speaker 4: how you fix it. You can't go into the playoffs
- 23:49Speaker 4: a five hundred team at home. You just can't. It's
- 23:53Speaker 4: your fortress, this is your home. This is why you
- 23:57Speaker 4: work to get home court. You everybody aspires to have
- 24:01Speaker 4: that advantage on in game seven in the first round.
- 24:05Speaker 4: Last year they had it. In the second round they
- 24:06Speaker 4: did not. It matters.
- 24:10Speaker 2: So fourteen and eleven, that's twenty five home games in,
- 24:14Speaker 2: they have sixteen remaining. If they went eight and eight,
- 24:19Speaker 2: that would put them at twenty two. In nineteen last
- 24:23Speaker 2: year they were twenty six and fifteen at home. The
- 24:27Speaker 2: year before that they were thirty three and eight, the
- 24:30Speaker 2: year before that thirty four and seven.
- 24:34Speaker 4: I mean, were they their championship season twenty three?
- 24:39Speaker 2: Is that twenty two twenty three or twenty three twenty four.
- 24:41Speaker 4: I was for twenty two twenty.
- 24:44Speaker 2: Three, Yes, they were thirty four and seven.
- 24:48Speaker 4: Okay, they've already lost double. I mean they're unmarked to
- 24:51Speaker 4: lose double the amount of home games. Yeah, yep, so
- 24:58Speaker 4: a lot of you may look at me and nobody
- 25:01Speaker 4: seems that the same way I do.
- 25:03Speaker 2: They were nineteen and twenty two on the road, which
- 25:06Speaker 2: is also interesting.
- 25:08Speaker 4: Okay, all that does for me, you're a dominant road
- 25:11Speaker 4: team right now. You have twenty wins on the road.
- 25:14Speaker 4: Nobody else can say that in the NBA. You're twenty
- 25:16Speaker 4: and nine on the road. You're dominant on the road.
- 25:18Speaker 4: That's preposterously good. All that tells me is what is
- 25:23Speaker 4: going on at home. You can't be that good on
- 25:27Speaker 4: the road where it's harder to win, and that bad
- 25:32Speaker 4: at home. It makes more sense if I told you, yeah,
- 25:36Speaker 4: the Nuggets are twenty and nine at home and they're
- 25:38Speaker 4: fourteen and eleven on the road, right, could you live
- 25:40Speaker 4: with that? You'd be like, Yeah, that makes sense, Sure,
- 25:43Speaker 4: that makes sense. Not the other way around. That doesn't
- 25:45Speaker 4: make sense. That makes no sense to me. And the
- 25:48Speaker 4: only thing I can come down those other factors matter
- 25:51Speaker 4: the health, clearly. But then if health matters, why are
- 25:54Speaker 4: they so good on the road that same health has
- 25:56Speaker 4: been on the road.
- 25:57Speaker 2: I'd be interested to see what their strength is. Schedule
- 26:00Speaker 2: is home and road. They played a lot of East
- 26:02Speaker 2: Coast games on the road, which is against the Eastern Conference,
- 26:06Speaker 2: which is far weaker than what the Western Conference is.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Let's see if I can do that on the.
- 26:11Speaker 4: Fly here, Yeah, do it on the fly. Well, I'll
- 26:12Speaker 4: talk a little bit more about this because I see
- 26:16Speaker 4: what this team does at home, and this is just
- 26:19Speaker 4: my observation. I can't tell you if this is fact.
- 26:22Speaker 4: It's just an observation. They get too comfortable.
- 26:28Speaker 2: I think so too.
- 26:29Speaker 4: They get too comfortable. And when I say that, I
- 26:32Speaker 4: mean you're up eleven. Let's go finish them off. Apply
- 26:37Speaker 4: the finishing touches, finish them off, and they can't seem
- 26:42Speaker 4: to get there. Home games used to be in Denver.
- 26:49Speaker 4: You don't come here to win. You playing at altitude.
- 26:52Speaker 4: It's tough. Hey, the crowd's been a sellout for now
- 26:55Speaker 4: one hundred and forty two consecutive games. Yeah, the longest
- 26:59Speaker 4: sellouts Freak and Nugget's history. The place is live, man,
- 27:05Speaker 4: I don't want to hear all the crowd's got it.
- 27:07Speaker 4: It's not the crowd's job. To win the game. The
- 27:10Speaker 4: crowd will reflect what you do in the game. That's
- 27:14Speaker 4: how it works.
- 27:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't find home and road strength to schedule.
- 27:22Speaker 2: God I would love to see that though, because maybe
- 27:24Speaker 2: that explains some of it of what they're going through.
- 27:28Speaker 4: Uh, Johnny says Vic how many home losses are due
- 27:30Speaker 4: to them being on a road trip and coming home
- 27:32Speaker 4: for one game then going back on the road. That's
- 27:35Speaker 4: a factor. Back to altitude. But you think it's the
- 27:38Speaker 4: first time this has happened. Last I checked, the Denver
- 27:41Speaker 4: Nuggets have played in Denver for what fifty years?
- 27:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean.
- 27:47Speaker 4: This is nothing new here. I can't explain it. Maybe
- 27:51Speaker 4: they've played better teams at home. To your argument, I
- 27:53Speaker 4: don't really. Let's take a look at some of the
- 27:57Speaker 4: road wins. I mean, hell, they through the month of
- 28:00Speaker 4: January missing four starters. They won it Boston, they won
- 28:05Speaker 4: at Philly. Yeah, they're winning these damn road games that
- 28:09Speaker 4: are tough road games.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Man, I don't know, it's it's I mentioned this earlier
- 28:18Speaker 2: that it kind of reminds me both the home record
- 28:22Speaker 2: and their ability to finish in how weird it's been
- 28:24Speaker 2: this year and bad. It's kind of like when I'm
- 28:28Speaker 2: looking at the AVS power play that has been dominant
- 28:33Speaker 2: for basically ever since that team has been put together
- 28:35Speaker 2: in the last couple of years, it's not. In fact,
- 28:38Speaker 2: it's league worst right now. And you ask why, and
- 28:42Speaker 2: answer is I have no idea, Like they still have
- 28:45Speaker 2: unbelievable talent there. That's just not translating.
- 28:48Speaker 4: Home losses this year. Chicago, that's a bad home loss.
- 28:53Speaker 4: Say whatever you want. Can't lose it on to Chicago. Sacramento.
- 28:56Speaker 4: I know they're coming off no rest, but they've come
- 28:59Speaker 4: off no rest in one game more than they've lost.
- 29:01Speaker 4: That's a bad loss. Can't lose it home to Sacramento.
- 29:05Speaker 4: Remember that game they lost to San Antonio. They didn't
- 29:07Speaker 4: have Wemby. Yeah, say what you want about that one.
- 29:11Speaker 4: Lost it home to Dallas, lost at home. Houston's explainable.
- 29:17Speaker 4: Houston's a good team. I'm just trying to measure all
- 29:22Speaker 4: these home losses here. Lost it homely to Atlanta, lost
- 29:29Speaker 4: it on to Charlotte. That's what sparked the Charlotte run
- 29:32Speaker 4: when they won nine in a row. Lost it home
- 29:34Speaker 4: to the Lakers, lost it home to Detroit. Okay, Detroit's
- 29:38Speaker 4: the best of the East.
- 29:41Speaker 2: Yeah, and even the injury part of this, VIC doesn't
- 29:43Speaker 2: really apply because the Nuggets with Yo Kitchen at home
- 29:45Speaker 2: this year are eleven and seven, which I guess is
- 29:48Speaker 2: slightly better than what their overall record is, but still not.
- 29:52Speaker 2: You know, if they were eleven and five with Yo
- 29:55Speaker 2: Kitchen at home, maybe you could explain the injuries are
- 29:57Speaker 2: a problem. It's not that. It's more than that.
- 29:58Speaker 4: They're better on the road for some reason. And I
- 30:01Speaker 4: think it's a comfortability thing. They're on the road, they're
- 30:04Speaker 4: on their own, they have no distractions. This is a
- 30:08Speaker 4: team that frankly likes playing in the adverse condition of
- 30:12Speaker 4: a road gym. When the crowd is loud, right, they
- 30:15Speaker 4: like that. They respond to that. That's admirable, that's awesome.
- 30:19Speaker 4: You want that come playoff time. So everything they do
- 30:22Speaker 4: on the road is brilliant. There's something missing at home.
- 30:28Speaker 2: Just quickly here, VIC, reminder to you guys.
- 30:30Speaker 3: Keyword.
- 30:30Speaker 2: Your final keyword is purple, So text that in your
- 30:33Speaker 2: first last name to three zero three five oh four
- 30:35Speaker 2: nine two five. Some rumors out there that you know
- 30:38Speaker 2: the Nuggets have that open roster spot after trading Hunter
- 30:41Speaker 2: Tyson Lonzo Ball. His name's been rumored about the Nuggets
- 30:47Speaker 2: maybe being interested. I don't know what you feel about that.
- 30:50Speaker 4: Well, A lot of that's gonna depend on how how
- 30:53Speaker 4: they see a rotation down the stretch. Do they think
- 30:56Speaker 4: Jalen Pickett can handle that load? Is the backup point guard?
- 31:00Speaker 4: You know, he went through a tough stretch there where
- 31:02Speaker 4: he couldn't make a shot, made one late last night,
- 31:04Speaker 4: by the way, made a nice three late. What do
- 31:08Speaker 4: they feel about that backup? The other concern is this
- 31:12Speaker 4: do they need another forward? Because that's what I'm saying,
- 31:15Speaker 4: Aaron Gordon and Payton Watson they're gone until March.
- 31:18Speaker 2: They don't have anybody on this roster that's like six
- 31:20Speaker 2: foot nine that can play a four.
- 31:22Speaker 4: I mean, I mean they have influence of issues here
- 31:24Speaker 4: right and it's the worst time because two injuries to forwards. Meanwhile,
- 31:30Speaker 4: you need backup ball handling. Perhaps that's a decision that's
- 31:33Speaker 4: it's going to weigh on them here. It's a big one.
- 31:35Speaker 2: You could say for now vic three injuries to forwards
- 31:38Speaker 2: because Spencer Jones could play that. I mean he's big
- 31:41Speaker 2: enough and tenacious enough defensively to try and pull that off.
- 31:44Speaker 2: The issue is a lot of people say they need
- 31:46Speaker 2: somebody to handle the basketball and Jamal's not in the game,
- 31:49Speaker 2: And I'm like, do you, I mean, really that concern
- 31:52Speaker 2: if Bruce Brown, as long as you get to pass
- 31:54Speaker 2: the timeline, what's the difference.
- 31:56Speaker 4: Yeah, they won a championship without a backup point guard. Yeah,
- 31:59Speaker 4: Reggie Jackson barely played in that championship run. If you
- 32:01Speaker 4: remember right, Bruce was the backup point guard. I'll read
- 32:06Speaker 4: this from Ron. No worries at all about the home record.
- 32:10Speaker 4: They've played with different lineups, got a running gun, fast temple.
- 32:13Speaker 4: You guys haven't been able to do that. They're still
- 32:15Speaker 4: learning how to play with guys that weren't used to,
- 32:17Speaker 4: how to play live action with other team's best Unit's
- 32:20Speaker 4: a cun playoff time will be fine. Okay, I'll take
- 32:21Speaker 4: all your arguments there, Ron, and I don't disagree with you.
- 32:24Speaker 4: So why are they twenty nine on the road with
- 32:27Speaker 4: those same issues?
- 32:29Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 32:29Speaker 2: It doesn't check out, listen.
- 32:32Speaker 4: I mean I don't disagree. Health has been a problem,
- 32:34Speaker 4: different lineups, that's been a problem. All of that's been
- 32:37Speaker 4: a problem. So why is it not a problem on
- 32:38Speaker 4: the road.
- 32:41Speaker 2: We will give away this pair of tickets to the
- 32:42Speaker 2: abs in the wild on the twenty sixth. We'll do
- 32:45Speaker 2: that at nine fifty five. Stick around, you know, Brett.
- 32:48Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe I am that old man.
- 32:52Speaker 2: God, you've never sound older than that right there.
- 32:57Speaker 4: Maybe I am that old man with dyed hair yelling
- 33:01Speaker 4: at clouds because I read I felt like I yelled
- 33:06Speaker 4: at clouds the last second talking about home court, home court.
- 33:09Speaker 4: Maybe maybe the game has changed. Maybe it's just a
- 33:12Speaker 4: different world where home court doesn't matter where you know,
- 33:15Speaker 4: playing in front of that home energy doesn't matter. It
- 33:17Speaker 4: doesn't carry as much weight as he used to. Maybe
- 33:21Speaker 4: that's the case.
- 33:22Speaker 2: Maybe before you even continue.
- 33:31Speaker 4: First of all, before you continue.
- 33:34Speaker 2: Because I've had this problem at six o'clock is murderous
- 33:37Speaker 2: for me on that that front. But I want to
- 33:40Speaker 2: give you exactly what that sounded like.
- 33:42Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe I'm just becoming an old man who doesn't
- 33:48Speaker 5: understand world anymore. I mean, it was perfect.
- 33:55Speaker 2: Best impression you've ever done in this show actually is
- 33:58Speaker 2: of an old man.
- 33:59Speaker 4: So last night, in the middle of the David Adelman
- 34:03Speaker 4: press conference before the game, I had an asthma attack,
- 34:08Speaker 4: and I'm sitting there trying to get myself forced myself
- 34:11Speaker 4: to vomit. I had to. I couldn't breathe.
- 34:13Speaker 2: Okay, I don't have asthma, So explain what an asthma
- 34:16Speaker 2: attack is. I don't know what this is.
- 34:18Speaker 4: That asthma all my life. I've been fighting it all
- 34:20Speaker 4: my life.
- 34:20Speaker 2: But what is what is like? What do you feel
- 34:22Speaker 2: like when once happened? You can't breathe and you said
- 34:25Speaker 2: you're trying to make yourself puke?
- 34:27Speaker 4: The only it feels like something is blocking and you're
- 34:30Speaker 4: like trying to You're desperate. Now you almost go into
- 34:33Speaker 4: a panic attack. Everything stopped working and I rushed to
- 34:38Speaker 4: the bathroom spitting stuff out. It was a complete crap
- 34:42Speaker 4: show for like ten minutes, okay, and I felt like
- 34:47Speaker 4: I was about to just have one right there, gotcha?
- 34:50Speaker 4: So if you ever see me, go there out. Yeah,
- 34:52Speaker 4: I'm fine out okay, So thanks for making fun of
- 34:57Speaker 4: my disability again.
- 34:59Speaker 2: You know what, I can't keep track of your eight
- 35:02Speaker 2: you have. I wouldn't be able to make fun of
- 35:05Speaker 2: you at all.
- 35:08Speaker 7: So he vic, maybe you can open up your airway
- 35:10Speaker 7: with those would you say inbred bunyan thumbs?
- 35:15Speaker 2: So hang on a second, No, you just sent something
- 35:20Speaker 2: and look this is not in English, but I don't
- 35:25Speaker 2: know what's going on here? This guy, I don't know
- 35:28Speaker 2: his name it I guess the language is Norwegian. Is
- 35:32Speaker 2: that what we're going with here? He does an interview,
- 35:36Speaker 2: he wins a bronze medal. Okay, so he's doing an
- 35:39Speaker 2: interview on on Norwegian television and in this I guess
- 35:45Speaker 2: from this translation, he won the Olympic bronze and then
- 35:50Speaker 2: proceeded to talk about how he cheated on the love
- 35:52Speaker 2: of his life.
- 35:53Speaker 4: What yeah, he used that platform.
- 35:58Speaker 2: Yeah, he's I would really like to share this with
- 36:01Speaker 2: my I don't know your girlfriend, wife, whatever, but I
- 36:06Speaker 2: cheated on her. He's in tears.
- 36:09Speaker 4: What yeah, there's this is fake news. There's no way
- 36:13Speaker 4: the drama of the Olympics brought a guy to go
- 36:16Speaker 4: full admission after a medal.
- 36:18Speaker 7: And I like this part where he said, according to
- 36:20Speaker 7: the translation from the Twitter Norwegians, he said, it has
- 36:24Speaker 7: been the worst week of my life. I had a
- 36:27Speaker 7: gold medal in my life, and I'm sure many people
- 36:30Speaker 7: look at me differently, but I only have eyes for her.
- 36:33Speaker 7: Sports has taken a bit of a back seat these
- 36:35Speaker 7: past days. Yeah, I wish I could share this with her.
- 36:39Speaker 4: After he just won an Olympic medal. Can I hear
- 36:42Speaker 4: some of this because I can speak me some Norway.
- 36:45Speaker 2: Well, we'll give him time to pull it up. I
- 36:46Speaker 2: can only imagine, Sam Darnold, you're a super Bowl champion.
- 36:51Speaker 2: What are you gonna do? I'm going to get my
- 36:54Speaker 2: wife back. It's like disney Land, isn't it.
- 37:00Speaker 4: Yeah, we've had a thing going.
- 37:04Speaker 2: By the way, I saw a commercial that featured both
- 37:07Speaker 2: him and Kenneth Walker where they did the We're going
- 37:09Speaker 2: to disney World thing, but they said Disneyland, and is
- 37:12Speaker 2: that I've always saw? I'm going to disney World? Was
- 37:15Speaker 2: what people said. Did they say Disneyland because it's in California?
- 37:20Speaker 2: Did they make him switch it?
- 37:21Speaker 4: I don't watch cartoons, dude, a cartoon. It was football,
- 37:25Speaker 4: super Bowl, don't watch cartoons.
- 37:26Speaker 2: Super Bowl postgame, and let's listen.
- 37:29Speaker 4: To the let's listen to the Norway guy doing this
- 37:31Speaker 4: is my life.
- 37:32Speaker 7: And uh VIC, just do your best to translate as
- 37:34Speaker 7: we go here.
- 37:35Speaker 2: Okay, mister, I got.
- 37:38Speaker 4: Up the letters from man.
- 37:39Speaker 2: This is the interviewer.
- 37:45Speaker 4: That I had a moment of clarity when I won
- 37:49Speaker 4: the bronze. I wanted to give this to my love
- 37:52Speaker 4: of my life, but I cheated on her seventeen straight
- 37:56Speaker 4: times here in the Olympic village. And now I don't
- 38:01Speaker 4: know what to do because I've got to go home
- 38:03Speaker 4: with his bronze, and I have no one to share.
- 38:06Speaker 6: It with, and now I have nothing.
- 38:13Speaker 2: I can only imagine, by the way, objectively, objectively, that's
- 38:18Speaker 2: a hilarious language.
- 38:20Speaker 4: That guy sounds like a cheater.
- 38:22Speaker 2: Go back to the beginning of that. Let me hear
- 38:23Speaker 2: that reporter one more time.
- 38:25Speaker 3: Mister I got up the letters hilarious language.
- 38:31Speaker 2: I mean, come on, that's outstanding.
- 38:35Speaker 4: What is a bunch of consonants?
- 38:37Speaker 2: What is that?
- 38:38Speaker 7: My dad actually speaks fluent in Norwegian, and so when
- 38:41Speaker 7: I was a kid and I would hear him speak it,
- 38:42Speaker 7: it's just so weird to see my dad produced theos
- 38:46Speaker 7: it sounds. It just rolls off the tongue for him.
- 38:49Speaker 2: Baby Jamal Kle loves there's this video of the Swedish
- 38:53Speaker 2: chef in Sesame Street where he's making popcorn. She dies
- 38:56Speaker 2: laughing every time because why because that's a hilarious accent.
- 39:03Speaker 4: So next time Shoheo Tani has his translator, We've got
- 39:06Speaker 4: a mixed translators. We gotta have the Norwegian person translating
- 39:10Speaker 4: for show. Hey have to.
- 39:15Speaker 2: So a couple of things here before we leave. Nuggets lose.
- 39:18Speaker 2: Nothing going on tonight because the obviously hockey is off
- 39:22Speaker 2: and the Olympics start. The Olympic Hockey men's starts tomorrow.
- 39:27Speaker 2: The US does not play until what time did I say?
- 39:29Speaker 2: Was it like ten o'clock or one on Thursday? Something
- 39:32Speaker 2: like that? Will they take on Latvia? By the way, Mason,
- 39:38Speaker 2: our sales guy, he said he was talking to a
- 39:40Speaker 2: friend of his Latvia only has. I think they counted
- 39:43Speaker 2: three NHL players on that team, So maybe this will
- 39:45Speaker 2: be a nice little warm up game for the US
- 39:47Speaker 2: to get into things. What are expectations for the US
- 39:51Speaker 2: hockey team, by the way, what do they need to do?
- 39:54Speaker 4: Well? Don't you want to get to that gold medal game?
- 39:58Speaker 4: Certainly get metal metal?
- 39:59Speaker 2: Yeah, like US basketball. If they don't win gold, then
- 40:03Speaker 2: you guys bumped and get out out.
- 40:04Speaker 3: Yes.
- 40:05Speaker 2: If the US gets bronze, is that good enough? Do
- 40:07Speaker 2: they need to get silver?
- 40:09Speaker 4: Do they like?
- 40:09Speaker 2: What do you what do you think?
- 40:10Speaker 4: Well, the level of competition is much stiffer in the course.
- 40:15Speaker 2: That's why I'm asking That's why I'm asking the question.
- 40:17Speaker 4: Yeah, Metal. Okay, it would be upsetting to lose in
- 40:21Speaker 4: a in metal play, but your metal, I would agree.
- 40:25Speaker 2: I think so too, especially with I mean, they fought
- 40:29Speaker 2: so hard in that four Nations it feels like you're
- 40:30Speaker 2: getting closer. You know, Canada is obviously stacked, they got
- 40:34Speaker 2: everybody on that roster. But Metal try and get in
- 40:38Speaker 2: that gold medal match and make it interesting. I think
- 40:41Speaker 2: that's sort of the standard that we're looking for.
- 40:44Speaker 3: Here.

- 41:36Speaker 2: I'm like trying to force myself to watch all these events,
- 41:39Speaker 2: but I have like a solidified. Take Summer Olympics are better.
- 41:43Speaker 2: I just understand them more. I understand the summer more,
- 41:46Speaker 2: I understand swimming. There's a lot of the lose stuff
- 41:49Speaker 2: that I watch, and it's like I can't tell if
- 41:51Speaker 2: somebody's doing good or bad in all of this.
- 41:53Speaker 4: Did you watch ski jump last night? I did not.
- 41:56Speaker 4: I miss that you didn't watch it, Steve? Did you
- 41:58Speaker 4: watch ski jump?
- 42:00Speaker 7: I was not able to.
- 42:01Speaker 4: Okay, So for anybody who watched ski jump, I just
- 42:04Speaker 4: I want you to do self reflection right now. You
- 42:07Speaker 4: know the controversy behind the ski jumpers, right, It's been
- 42:10Speaker 4: talked about.
- 42:11Speaker 2: Many hydronic acid or whatever.
- 42:13Speaker 4: So as you're watching the ski jump, first place your
- 42:17Speaker 4: eyes went watching ski jump?
- 42:21Speaker 2: Oh you went there.
- 42:22Speaker 4: Well, you're just wondering are they cheating? I'm asking what
- 42:26Speaker 4: are they cheating?
- 42:27Speaker 2: What are you always doing? Vic? I mean, it's not
- 42:29Speaker 2: a surprise.
- 42:29Speaker 4: No, I'm asking you the question because it's a controversy now,
- 42:35Speaker 4: and you have to wonder as everybody goes on that run,
- 42:41Speaker 4: this skyt legit here.
- 42:42Speaker 2: Let's see you're getting a little extra sale. What they say,
- 42:47Speaker 2: an extra two inches or two centimeters is five meters
- 42:51Speaker 2: in the air. Oh, Yeah, I think it's fair. VIC,
- 42:57Speaker 2: very fair.
- 42:58Speaker 4: I think it's very fair.
- 42:59Speaker 5: Uh.
- 43:00Speaker 2: A couple of minutes here in Nelly fact Checker.
- 43:02Speaker 1: Nelly monitors the mistakes in today's fact Checker fact Checker,
- 43:08Speaker 1: presented by Bachus and Shanker, Serious Lawyers for the serious
- 43:12Speaker 1: Lee injured.
- 43:14Speaker 7: Sometimes all you guys are comping hogs. I go down
- 43:17Speaker 7: weird statistical rabbit holes. And Brett, you mentioned that the
- 43:20Speaker 7: last time the San Diego Chargers won the AFC West,
- 43:23Speaker 7: it was two thousand and nine. The coach of that
- 43:25Speaker 7: squad was actually Norv Turner, not Marty schat A Eenheimer.
- 43:31Speaker 2: And hang on a second, AI has led me astray.
- 43:35Speaker 7: Then, hey man, the robots aren't on your side. And
- 43:39Speaker 7: also you said that they clinched the division just after
- 43:43Speaker 7: Obama was inaugurated. Well, he was actually inaugurated in January
- 43:46Speaker 7: two thousand and nine, and then the season started in September,
- 43:50Speaker 7: so it still was the first season on his watch
- 43:53Speaker 7: as president. But it was was like one was in
- 43:55Speaker 7: the winter, the next was in the falls.
- 43:56Speaker 4: It does embarrassing sharing a radio show with someone that's
- 44:00Speaker 4: so consistently wrong.
- 44:01Speaker 2: No, but this is the stupid thing about these like
- 44:04Speaker 2: all these sports, they span two different years. And when
- 44:06Speaker 2: you say two thousand and nine, are you talking about
- 44:09Speaker 2: the beginning of the season or the end? And nobody
- 44:11Speaker 2: does it correctly.
- 44:12Speaker 7: Right, we're talking about the season that took place in
- 44:15Speaker 7: two thousand and nine, and actually so that sent me
- 44:18Speaker 7: even deeper down the rabbit hole. The Chargers were in
- 44:20Speaker 7: the middle of a stretch where they four peeded AFC
- 44:22Speaker 7: West champions from two thousand and six to two thousand
- 44:25Speaker 7: and nine. In two thousand and eight, they won the
- 44:28Speaker 7: AFC West with an eight and eight record, and it
- 44:30Speaker 7: all came down to a winner takes all game against
- 44:34Speaker 7: the Broncos in Qualcomm Stadium in Week seventeen. Winner wins
- 44:37Speaker 7: the West. They beat the Broncos fifty two to twenty
- 44:41Speaker 7: one to reach eight again, to reach eight and eight,
- 44:44Speaker 7: get the AFC West and the four seed.
- 44:46Speaker 4: How was that that game? I think that was Shannan's
- 44:49Speaker 4: final game, if.
- 44:50Speaker 2: History serves Let me ask you something else, fix speaking
- 44:53Speaker 2: of I never know if if they're talking about the
- 44:56Speaker 2: season of two thousand and nine or when it ended.
- 44:58Speaker 2: When somebody tells you the putts a cup out, is
- 45:02Speaker 2: that are you aiming the center of the imaginary cup
- 45:04Speaker 2: that's out, or the edge of the imaginary cup it's freezing.
- 45:07Speaker 2: Say when people say that, yeah, I don't know what
- 45:09Speaker 2: they mean.
- 45:10Speaker 4: I always I always go to the edge of the
- 45:12Speaker 4: imaginary cup.
- 45:13Speaker 2: I go center.
- 45:14Speaker 4: Do you I do the edge. That's probably why I
- 45:16Speaker 4: miss everything just barely on the cup.
- 45:18Speaker 2: But I mean, people agree with you more. And I'm like,
- 45:21Speaker 2: if you're saying, if there's a cup over here, when
- 45:22Speaker 2: I aim for the middle of the cup, I don't
- 45:24Speaker 2: get it anyway. Uh iTunes, Spotify, Moser, Lombardi and Kine
- 45:29Speaker 2: have a wonderful Tuesday. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Love
- 45:30Speaker 2: you see
