- 0:18Speaker 3: Any update you want to give on Manson?
- 0:21Speaker 4: No, okay, and look that's just to the point as
- 0:26Speaker 4: you're gonna get. You ask the man a question, he
- 0:29Speaker 4: gives you an answer. You say, okay, huntd.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Percent, I get a question about everybody understands playoff hockey.
- 0:38Speaker 2: If it's the old Saban thing. Stop asking, because I
- 0:41Speaker 2: ain't gonna tell you to stop asking.
- 0:44Speaker 3: I knew that was gonna be the answer. Yeah, I
- 0:46Speaker 3: knew it, but you.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Had to ask the question.
- 0:47Speaker 1: But why aren't you a journalist like the guy in Toronto.
- 0:50Speaker 1: I'm not going to.
- 0:52Speaker 2: So quit ask her.
- 0:53Speaker 3: That's it. Nope, that's it.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Think you know I love ours.
- 0:59Speaker 1: By the way he have handled that, the journalist in Toronto.
- 1:03Speaker 1: How would the journalist in Toronto handle something like that? Well,
- 1:07Speaker 1: because everybody wants the hardcore, hard hitting journalist.
- 1:10Speaker 4: Well, Betsy, you have talked to twenty family members of
- 1:13Speaker 4: Josh Manson.
- 1:15Speaker 3: And only one said that he was not ready to
- 1:18Speaker 3: play yet.
- 1:19Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:21Speaker 3: Here's what I want to say about Quinn Hughes.
- 1:23Speaker 4: We talked a little bit about they are very very adamant,
- 1:29Speaker 4: not just against the Avs but throughout the course of
- 1:31Speaker 4: this postseason so far, including their first round matchup against Dallas.
- 1:35Speaker 4: They play Faber and they play Hughes thirty minutes to night,
- 1:38Speaker 4: they play half the game.
- 1:39Speaker 3: That's a lot.
- 1:41Speaker 4: I get that it's the playoffs, But in Game two,
- 1:45Speaker 4: would you say that the Avs made a concerted effort
- 1:49Speaker 4: to really lay it on Quinn Hughes whenever he touched
- 1:51Speaker 4: the puck You.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Bet one hundred percent. And and so everybody, not just selecting,
- 1:57Speaker 1: not just the hitters, right right, everybody was instructed because
- 2:00Speaker 1: he's a small guy.
- 2:02Speaker 4: So on that subject, Vic, Quinn Hughes playing thirty minutes
- 2:07Speaker 4: a night at five and eighty pounds, taking the bruising
- 2:11Speaker 4: that he took in Game two.
- 2:14Speaker 3: If that continues, how long does that hold up?
- 2:17Speaker 2: Brett? I don't know, but it can't be forever, because
- 2:19Speaker 2: I do know this. Even the bad mammagemas get worn
- 2:25Speaker 2: down and broken down. Yeah, I mean, this is an
- 2:28Speaker 2: incredibly physical game, Vick. It's the greatest thing that when
- 2:34Speaker 2: your wife and your wife and you two were right
- 2:37Speaker 2: down there on that glass that one time. Right, My
- 2:39Speaker 2: wife was there, right, everybody's down there, and you get
- 2:44Speaker 2: an upfront. The only thing separating you from the players
- 2:46Speaker 2: is that glass, right, a couple of inches thick. And
- 2:50Speaker 2: you see the physicality, and you see the angst and
- 2:52Speaker 2: the pain and the blam and the boom and the
- 2:54Speaker 2: whack and all that kind of stuff. The speed. It
- 2:58Speaker 2: gives you a real perspective, which is what vick. I
- 3:00Speaker 2: wish everybody could stand on the sideline one time for
- 3:02Speaker 2: an NFL football because it's gonna it's gonna blow your
- 3:07Speaker 2: mind on how incredibly tough these guys are. So eventual
- 3:13Speaker 2: NFL football game and it will change your life, It
- 3:17Speaker 2: absolutely will. So the point is that is that it
- 3:21Speaker 2: can last for some time, but it can't last forever.
- 3:25Speaker 2: The body is going to wear out, The brain is
- 3:28Speaker 2: going to wear out, the will the want to is
- 3:31Speaker 2: going to wear out because it's just repeated punishment, shift
- 3:35Speaker 2: after shift, game after game, which is why it's just
- 3:38Speaker 2: an absolute survival to get to a Stanley Cup final.
- 3:43Speaker 1: We saw that happen in the Wolves Nuggets series. When
- 3:47Speaker 1: you're smothered for an entire series eventually you just you
- 3:50Speaker 1: wear out.
- 3:52Speaker 4: But being the size of Quinn Hughes, if he continues
- 3:57Speaker 4: to take a pounding like he did in Game two
- 3:59Speaker 4: and doing that for half the game every single night,
- 4:03Speaker 4: it's going to catch.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Up with him.
- 4:04Speaker 2: Well, Johnny, you know, Johnny Lyles, I see listening right now, Johnny, listen,
- 4:09Speaker 2: he texts me because I'd like to find out because
- 4:12Speaker 2: he was not the biggest defenseman.
- 4:14Speaker 3: In the world.
- 4:15Speaker 2: Superb skater, right, great skater, really really good player. But
- 4:22Speaker 2: you know, I mean guys would throw the puck into
- 4:24Speaker 2: his corner. Hey, if you want to dump into somebody's corner,
- 4:27Speaker 2: dump the dump the Lyles corner and go pound him.
- 4:30Speaker 2: I mean, it stinks he would be able to answer
- 4:32Speaker 2: better than all of us on how long he thinks
- 4:35Speaker 2: that can last. Here's what I do know. I've even seen,
- 4:38Speaker 2: with me being in the league, I've seen even the toughest,
- 4:43Speaker 2: most in shape, best conditioned guys wear out. It's just
- 4:49Speaker 2: it's it's not a fun thing to do. But you
- 4:51Speaker 2: know what you do to win a Stanley Cup. You
- 4:53Speaker 2: do it, and you keep doing it, and you you
- 4:55Speaker 2: mentally prepare yourself for it, and you just keep taking
- 4:58Speaker 2: the punishment.
- 5:00Speaker 3: I'm not saying that like.
- 5:03Speaker 4: He shouldn't be doing that, but for the amount of
- 5:06Speaker 4: time that he spends on the ice along with if
- 5:09Speaker 4: that's the mentality towards him, it's going to be difficult
- 5:14Speaker 4: to survive, it is what I'm saying. Like, I watched
- 5:17Speaker 4: Sammy G who was of a similar size to Quinn Hughes.
- 5:20Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not wrong there, am I mos Sammy
- 5:23Speaker 4: G about the same size. No, Hughes is a little taller,
- 5:27Speaker 4: a little I mean, it's not all I'm saying is
- 5:30Speaker 4: not that much as separating.
- 5:31Speaker 5: He's not.
- 5:32Speaker 2: He's also not the thickest guy in the world, so
- 5:33Speaker 2: he's not It's not like he's got, you know, tons
- 5:36Speaker 2: of meat to protect.
- 5:37Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
- 5:38Speaker 4: Though Sammy G gets planted against the boards and his
- 5:41Speaker 4: sternham breaks.
- 5:42Speaker 2: Well, I mean, yeah, a lot of guys will break
- 5:45Speaker 2: on that hit. No, it's just it's one of those things.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I don't know how long you can last. But it's
- 5:50Speaker 2: it's really not a fun thing. It's it's just laborious
- 5:54Speaker 2: night in and night out.
- 5:55Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. I see a lot of you
- 5:57Speaker 1: people take shots at I mean, I'm reading this on
- 6:00Speaker 1: which oh he's tiny. Always this here's my retort. It's
- 6:04Speaker 1: funny how little guy's dominating a series, or can dominate
- 6:07Speaker 1: a series, isn't it. Yeah, And you could take all
- 6:09Speaker 1: the shots you wanted them. Oh he's still we little defender.
- 6:12Speaker 1: You know that we Little Defender also won gold for
- 6:14Speaker 1: in the US. It's you're ridiculous, guys. You guys take
- 6:19Speaker 1: shots at these little guys and yet they're so damn good.
- 6:23Speaker 1: They're so damn good, aren't they? But you want them
- 6:26Speaker 1: on your team, don't you?
- 6:26Speaker 4: Hang on the point here is not anything about the
- 6:30Speaker 4: size being something you're making fun of him.
- 6:33Speaker 1: I'm not talking about you.
- 6:33Speaker 3: No, No, I get it, I get it.
- 6:35Speaker 4: But it's just about if you're gonna be playing that much,
- 6:38Speaker 4: and there's a concerted effort for physicality whenever you touch
- 6:42Speaker 4: the puck.
- 6:44Speaker 1: It's a lot.
- 6:45Speaker 4: Easier for a guy like that to get hurt than
- 6:48Speaker 4: for somebody who's manson size.
- 6:50Speaker 1: And it's a lot easier for a guy like that
- 6:52Speaker 1: to stop on a dime turn and score. Sure, And
- 6:55Speaker 1: that's all I'm saying. You get the good with the bad.
- 6:57Speaker 2: You're right. So all these.
- 6:59Speaker 1: People that continue to think that you need six foot five,
- 7:03Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty pound dudes, You're stupid. No, you
- 7:07Speaker 1: need a little bit of everybody.
- 7:08Speaker 2: Vic Let me, let me, let me lay this out
- 7:11Speaker 2: for you though. It's it's his skating is so good.
- 7:17Speaker 1: How many times does a big guy get fooled because
- 7:19Speaker 1: they can't keep up?
- 7:20Speaker 2: Agreed? Agreed. His skating is so good, and you have
- 7:24Speaker 2: to understand this. This is what makes this difficult for
- 7:27Speaker 2: him against the Avalanche. His skating is so good that
- 7:31Speaker 2: he can absolutely outmaneuver guys all day and all night
- 7:34Speaker 2: during the course of the regular season. Very few guys
- 7:38Speaker 2: can catch him, you know what I mean, on a
- 7:40Speaker 2: consistent basis. He'll get smoked, but very few guys. Just
- 7:43Speaker 2: like Cail McCarry, he gets smoked from time to time.
- 7:46Speaker 2: He got smoked in Game one, but very few guys
- 7:49Speaker 2: can catch him on a regular basis. That being said,
- 7:55Speaker 2: this team ain't seen consistent speed like the Abs are
- 7:57Speaker 2: bringing at him, and they are in vict they are
- 7:59Speaker 2: on him. Everybody is on what I'm saying.
- 8:01Speaker 4: He can't quick vowels on l I saw a val
- 8:06Speaker 4: Remember I told you that there.
- 8:08Speaker 2: It was the coolest thing and vowel's huge. Now, we
- 8:10Speaker 2: didn't blow him up or anything, but he won that
- 8:12Speaker 2: puck battle. But LC, you think Logan O'Connor, if they're
- 8:17Speaker 2: racing to the zone to play a puck, you think
- 8:20Speaker 2: LC is gonna let him off the hook. You think Parker, Kelly,
- 8:22Speaker 2: Jack Drury, anybody who's around him is gonna is gonna
- 8:25Speaker 2: lay a lick on him. Because the Avs had that SPEEDVI,
- 8:27Speaker 2: so his maneuverability factor is reduced because he can't pivot
- 8:31Speaker 2: the way he normally does. And you saw it. He
- 8:33Speaker 2: had a long shift. McKinnon finally just said, look, I'm
- 8:36Speaker 2: not playing I'm not playing Chase the rabbit blam and
- 8:39Speaker 2: he exploded him at the dot.
- 8:41Speaker 1: Because that's what that the av says have as much
- 8:44Speaker 1: skill as they have size, They have the precious combination.
- 8:48Speaker 2: That speed, that speed to get on you fast, but
- 8:51Speaker 2: it takes away his angle.
- 8:53Speaker 1: You would take Quinn Hughes on your team every day
- 8:56Speaker 1: all day.
- 8:57Speaker 3: I don't know who's arguing that.
- 8:58Speaker 1: Well, he's defending the little guys, and I defending my
- 9:01Speaker 1: little brethren, my little guy brethren, my little pop shot
- 9:05Speaker 1: uh by the way, And if you don't see the
- 9:07Speaker 1: value you're moron in what there's value in little guys. Yeah,
- 9:15Speaker 1: at every level, at every sport.
- 9:16Speaker 2: I mean, if I ever dropped my keys done like
- 9:18Speaker 2: a green, we can go get it. I'm like, Vick,
- 9:23Speaker 2: we got you can you slide down in erin.
- 9:27Speaker 1: Oh.
- 9:28Speaker 4: This is by the way, bednar with us yesterday talking
- 9:32Speaker 4: about Wedgwood and Special Teams.
- 9:35Speaker 5: No question, that was a huge penalty kill. We they
- 9:39Speaker 5: that was the most dangerous that they were in the game,
- 9:43Speaker 5: and it all came at a key time, and like
- 9:46Speaker 5: you said, Wedge comes up with six says and then
- 9:50Speaker 5: you know, I think our penalty kill learned a little
- 9:53Speaker 5: bit from that power play and what they would try
- 9:55Speaker 5: and do, and did a better job on the second
- 9:58Speaker 5: one that we took. But those there's a bunch of
- 10:01Speaker 5: huge moments in that game for me, and that was
- 10:05Speaker 5: definitely a big one. We came up with some good
- 10:09Speaker 5: blocks and we needed them. We got some big saves
- 10:11Speaker 5: and we need them. We've got timely goals and I
- 10:14Speaker 5: think like ultimately Special Teams won a sockey Geam.
- 10:17Speaker 3: Here's the other thing.
- 10:19Speaker 4: You know, there's been one lament for the Avs all year,
- 10:22Speaker 4: and it's been rightfully so. The AVS power play finished
- 10:26Speaker 4: what was it most twenty seventh in the league at
- 10:28Speaker 4: the end of the year, something like that.
- 10:29Speaker 2: It was the All Star break, all Star Olympic break
- 10:32Speaker 2: on that was it was really good.
- 10:33Speaker 4: Yes, But the big thing that stuck with people as
- 10:38Speaker 4: far as a major concern that could get them beat
- 10:40Speaker 4: the postseason was are you going to be able to
- 10:44Speaker 4: get the power play at a respectable level because if
- 10:47Speaker 4: you don't, we all go back to last year. We
- 10:50Speaker 4: saw it happen in real time five on five against Dallas.
- 10:53Speaker 3: You were far superior to them.
- 10:55Speaker 4: Whenever the power play hit the ice for either team,
- 10:57Speaker 4: that's where you got smoked. Well, the power play over
- 11:02Speaker 4: the last two games is four to seven. If they
- 11:05Speaker 4: are clipping along at even an average pace. I don't
- 11:09Speaker 4: know what you do as an opposing team.
- 11:11Speaker 1: It just looks more dangerous, doesn't it. It's not just
- 11:13Speaker 1: about the goal score because sometimes lucky bounce. It's about
- 11:17Speaker 1: looking more dangerous. It looks more I don't know what
- 11:21Speaker 1: they changed exactly. Most you can go into detail, but
- 11:24Speaker 1: when they set up I'm like, WHOA, okay, there it is.
- 11:27Speaker 2: No They're presenting different looks and there's so much telling
- 11:30Speaker 2: out there personally, the power play goal that McKinnon scored.
- 11:36Speaker 2: The coach may have loved it. I didn't love the
- 11:39Speaker 2: I didn't love the pace of that power play. I
- 11:42Speaker 2: love the looks. I didn't love the pace. I thought
- 11:45Speaker 2: it could be a little crisper. The first though, the
- 11:48Speaker 2: one McKinnon scored on.
- 11:49Speaker 3: No, no, no, But I'm saying the first.
- 11:51Speaker 2: One is what you want percent so. But Vic having
- 11:58Speaker 2: Nasen Kadri out there on the far side opposite McKinnon
- 12:05Speaker 2: and Nachius huge, Landy parking his butt and then sliding
- 12:10Speaker 2: up into the slot huge as the bumper. They're they're
- 12:15Speaker 2: if they're not dusting things off. Again, we talk about
- 12:17Speaker 2: that that Landy goal, I mean it goes kle Marty
- 12:21Speaker 2: Nate Bam Landy goal. I mean it's just no dusting.
- 12:25Speaker 2: I mean Marty stick handled a tiny bit and then
- 12:27Speaker 2: flipped it down in just a one touch right to
- 12:29Speaker 2: the top of the crease. Bam. Yeah, what was that?
- 12:34Speaker 2: The hell was that? Okay? I kind of like that.
- 12:38Speaker 2: Whatever that is.
- 12:41Speaker 3: It's from step Brothers, I guess it is.
- 12:43Speaker 2: Yeah, I forgot, but I mean it's just that's that,
- 12:46Speaker 2: It's just you're presenting different looks all eyes focused. I
- 12:49Speaker 2: mean natus In McKinnon and macarr terrify penalty kills, and
- 12:54Speaker 2: they should because Cale he can fake pass and he
- 12:58Speaker 2: can dart to his right and look for that little
- 13:00Speaker 2: tiny opening and blam, you're dead. It's really brilliant.
- 13:04Speaker 4: Don't miss Avalanche Game three Saturday night at Stoney's on

- 13:35Speaker 2: things like we catch things, and a lot of people
- 13:38Speaker 2: caught something. When you're talking about your brother, he's in
- 13:43Speaker 2: a coma, but he's using my sauna whatever it is.
- 13:45Speaker 2: You said, what do you catch?
- 13:46Speaker 1: What's there to catch? He used my sauna. They come
- 13:49Speaker 1: out and put them together for you. You don't have
- 13:51Speaker 1: to touch a finger. Oh, you're right, touch a thing.
- 13:55Speaker 1: Your finger doesn't have to touch anything at the same
- 13:59Speaker 1: rate you have to touch anybody's fingers.
- 14:01Speaker 3: I gotta be honest.
- 14:01Speaker 4: When people are working on my house doing some projects,
- 14:05Speaker 4: a finger, you touch.
- 14:06Speaker 2: A finger, Yet most most me you know what, I
- 14:08Speaker 2: like to do that sometimes too, people did Jim and
- 14:11Speaker 2: touch a finger.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Let me. There's only one person on this morning show
- 14:17Speaker 1: who turns his camera off during ad reads because he's
- 14:19Speaker 1: so afraid of what people will think of him when
- 14:21Speaker 1: his camera's on the rest of us. You guys, you
- 14:24Speaker 1: want to see my house, come come on in. I'm
- 14:26Speaker 1: an open book. I'll do my ad reads right here.
- 14:28Speaker 1: But there's only one person who fears the public light
- 14:31Speaker 1: when it's time to do an ad read.
- 14:33Speaker 3: You can't do this to me.
- 14:35Speaker 2: Who's that person? Who's that person? A front, back side side?
- 14:39Speaker 2: I don't fear anything.
- 14:40Speaker 1: Well, let me see you do your next ad read
- 14:42Speaker 1: with your camera.
- 14:42Speaker 2: I will be happy to okay, And I don't know
- 14:45Speaker 2: why that bothers him anyway.
- 14:48Speaker 3: What happened, Vick?
- 14:48Speaker 2: Why are you fired up? Yeah? Just because you got
- 14:50Speaker 2: a touch a finger to finger, because you're you're.
- 14:53Speaker 1: You're criticizing my ad read you won't even keep your
- 14:56Speaker 1: camera on on yours.
- 14:58Speaker 2: I'd be happy to if you. If you want to
- 14:59Speaker 2: look at my face, you can look at my face. Whatever.
- 15:03Speaker 1: You don't have to touch a finger.
- 15:05Speaker 4: Three oh three, five oh four O nine to run
- 15:07Speaker 4: back side side, both sides, front back, hemos. What's you
- 15:11Speaker 4: think about Anaheim time the series in Vegas last night?
- 15:14Speaker 2: I watched that game last night. Very impressive. You know
- 15:19Speaker 2: what they did? They played defense?
- 15:22Speaker 3: Yea, they did.
- 15:23Speaker 2: They played defense and they got some timely scoring from
- 15:27Speaker 2: Leo Carlson. I was impressed. I was impressed.
- 15:33Speaker 4: Is there Remember at the end of the regular season,
- 15:36Speaker 4: Anaheim was in free fall, couldn't win a game.
- 15:40Speaker 1: They should have won Game one of that series.
- 15:42Speaker 2: Should have wold it could to your red vic and
- 15:45Speaker 2: well they weren't. They weren't.
- 15:46Speaker 4: They were a mess. We were wondering, like almost are
- 15:48Speaker 4: they gonna make it? Do you want Anaheim to drop
- 15:51Speaker 4: to like that second wild card? You face them in
- 15:52Speaker 4: the first round instead of la like they were playing
- 15:55Speaker 4: that level bad. They go out to win the first uh,
- 15:57Speaker 4: the first series? They now hi this one one heading
- 16:01Speaker 4: back to Anaheim against Vegas. If you had your preference,
- 16:07Speaker 4: and I'm not putting any cart before a horse.
- 16:09Speaker 1: You're doing this two games.
- 16:10Speaker 2: I'm not doing I'm not listening. You're here's what you're
- 16:12Speaker 2: doing with your horse.

- 16:20Speaker 3: We can sit here and you're cause.
- 16:23Speaker 2: You're taking your horse, you're mating your horse. If you're
- 16:25Speaker 2: having a baby horse, you're putting all three horses on
- 16:28Speaker 2: top of a cart.
- 16:30Speaker 1: I decree, we're doing order of the show. You are
- 16:34Speaker 1: not allowed to look past this round until it's over.

- 16:40Speaker 3: we can.
- 16:40Speaker 2: We can.
- 16:42Speaker 4: I'm not concerned at all with anything until the ABS
- 16:45Speaker 4: get through this. If you watched Vegas and Anaheim, like
- 16:49Speaker 4: you're watching it trying to evaluate who would I rather play?
- 16:53Speaker 3: If you make it pass you, you can.
- 16:54Speaker 1: Do that privately. You could do that in your brain.
- 16:56Speaker 3: I can do it. I can do it public well.
- 16:58Speaker 2: If you do it, then you're a MOI.
- 16:59Speaker 1: Then you're on and there's one of that.
- 17:01Speaker 3: A guy in the ABS locker room.
- 17:02Speaker 2: I'm Vic. This has been established on this program for
- 17:06Speaker 2: quite a long time, which I'm so surprised you just
- 17:08Speaker 2: dismiss it. Anytime Vic makes a point and has a
- 17:14Speaker 2: decree either with his game of throne sword or his
- 17:17Speaker 2: Harry Potter wand, which is gone. Yes, somebody ripped off
- 17:21Speaker 2: his wand. Maybe Wand ripped itself off anytime he listen,
- 17:26Speaker 2: the little baseball bat, the harmonica of the bar of soap,
- 17:29Speaker 2: those can be sloughed off by order of the lollipop build.
- 17:32Speaker 1: But you are not allowed to talk about the next
- 17:35Speaker 1: rounds opponent until this round is over.
- 17:38Speaker 2: Now that's law. You understand he's got the ex caliber rights. Funny,
- 17:41Speaker 2: that is law.
- 17:42Speaker 3: It's funny. I don't remember you guys saying that when
- 17:44Speaker 3: we talked about Dallas and Mini.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Oh, because they'd already beaten dumb ass.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Not true.
- 17:54Speaker 3: True, you're trying to get this second.
- 17:58Speaker 1: This team is too dangerous. You know what you did?
- 18:00Speaker 5: You not?
- 18:01Speaker 1: Do you not remember the Vegas series? Don't you remember
- 18:04Speaker 1: what happened?
- 18:05Speaker 3: I do remember?
- 18:05Speaker 1: Do you remember that the Ads were up to nothing
- 18:07Speaker 1: when they went to Vegas and then lost four strake?
- 18:09Speaker 5: Do you remember?
- 18:10Speaker 1: Does your memory bank have that in it? Or you
- 18:12Speaker 1: just what is wrong with you? Okay, so you shut
- 18:15Speaker 1: your mouth.
- 18:17Speaker 4: This is thank you texture, This is totally Harry met
- 18:20Speaker 4: Potter stuff. That VIC is totally against. I don't understand this.
- 18:23Speaker 1: It's called respecting your opponent, a worthy opponent that is
- 18:26Speaker 1: capable of jumping on you turn your attention to the
- 18:31Speaker 1: next round.
- 18:31Speaker 3: I never said I think the Avs it's it's done,
- 18:34Speaker 3: They've won the series.
- 18:34Speaker 2: Never said that.
- 18:35Speaker 4: I'm just saying I again, you want to sit here
- 18:39Speaker 4: and lie to everybody who was listening to us and
- 18:40Speaker 4: say you weren't watching that game with an interest.
- 18:43Speaker 3: And we as make it past here. I wish then
- 18:45Speaker 3: you could go ahead and play that game. I'm not gonna.
- 18:48Speaker 1: Okay, here's how you do it. Then, if you're gonna
- 18:50Speaker 1: play your stupid games, here's how you do it. Most
- 18:53Speaker 1: let's envision an Avalanche victory in this series. What opponent
- 19:00Speaker 1: in the next round might be more ideal, more tasteful
- 19:04Speaker 1: for the Avs to compete again?
- 19:05Speaker 2: You know, Vic, that's a great question.
- 19:07Speaker 3: I think that sounds like something.
- 19:09Speaker 2: Then I would say, shut him off. Vic, that's a
- 19:12Speaker 2: great question, you know. I I don't want to look
- 19:15Speaker 2: too far ahead, but if the Abs were fortunate enough
- 19:18Speaker 2: to actually move on, yes, I think there are things
- 19:21Speaker 2: they can exploit from both of those hockey clubs to
- 19:23Speaker 2: be honest with you.
- 19:25Speaker 1: One thing I do know about him Moos, it's it's
- 19:28Speaker 1: you don't overthink this. Don't don't, don't, don't don't jump
- 19:31Speaker 1: into Vegas with a coach that don't overthink it. Now
- 19:34Speaker 1: you're not allowed to talk about this because you did
- 19:36Speaker 1: it in a hull rump manner. We are allowed to
- 19:40Speaker 1: analyze this.
- 19:41Speaker 2: Yeah, you went, you went full on. Hey, who do
- 19:42Speaker 2: you want the conference final? No? No, no, we don't
- 19:45Speaker 2: do that.
- 19:48Speaker 4: I can't believe you guys would discuss a potential matchup.
- 19:53Speaker 3: Existed yet do be a favorite?
- 19:57Speaker 4: By the way, Nelly, can you play how I asked
- 20:00Speaker 4: the question and how VIC asked the question and see
- 20:03Speaker 4: if there's a single syllable that was different between it.
- 20:06Speaker 1: The way you did it was pure brash, over confident.
- 20:10Speaker 2: Ado, just breeding horses, putting them in a cart and
- 20:14Speaker 2: having that cart.
- 20:15Speaker 1: The way I asked the question was out of almost necessity.
- 20:21Speaker 1: It was it was an encouragement of your current opponent.
- 20:24Speaker 1: It was, Hey, we really value that this opponent is
- 20:27Speaker 1: not dead yet. But let's pretend that's what I did.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Uh? Do I get a text from Dreaddon on Monday
- 20:39Speaker 2: because he's watching the same thing. He says. How loud
- 20:43Speaker 2: is that? Stupid? P a guy in Vegas? That's low, dude.
- 20:46Speaker 2: It has to be turned up as loud as pause. Dude,
- 20:48Speaker 2: when I'm telling you I've said this before. The speakers
- 20:52Speaker 2: that go to our booth, you know.
- 20:54Speaker 3: Makes you want to pee?
- 20:56Speaker 2: Yes, that's how dude. The vibrations from the speakers rattle
- 21:00Speaker 2: your bladder.
- 21:02Speaker 1: How's uh? It's all right, forget the next round upon it?
- 21:09Speaker 1: How loud is that? Minnesota used to be Excel Arena?
- 21:12Speaker 1: What do they call it out?
- 21:13Speaker 2: Some casino, some grand some casino thing. Yeah?
- 21:16Speaker 1: How how crazy does that place get?
- 21:19Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest, I love that building. It's a
- 21:21Speaker 2: really really good hockey building. The fans are great. I
- 21:26Speaker 2: guess you want me to hate on it. The fans
- 21:29Speaker 2: there are obviously really really good. They got on that
- 21:32Speaker 2: On the concourse, they've got every high school hockey jersey
- 21:36Speaker 2: from the state lined up around. It's pretty damn cool
- 21:38Speaker 2: they do.
- 21:39Speaker 1: They do high school hockey like no other.
- 21:41Speaker 2: They really do they do.
- 21:42Speaker 1: And are you where are you talking about?
- 21:44Speaker 2: Minnesota? The building itself, they thought of a lot of
- 21:48Speaker 2: really great stuff when they built that joint. They did
- 21:52Speaker 2: a really good job.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Don't they sell out their high school tournament? That's crazy.
- 21:57Speaker 2: Yeah, think about that for a second. They sell it
- 21:59Speaker 2: out at that's why at the what we call it
- 22:01Speaker 2: the X, but now it's the Grand or whatever it is.
- 22:03Speaker 4: Say, Texas high school football is Minnesota high school hockey
- 22:06Speaker 4: sort of thing, you know.
- 22:07Speaker 1: Yes, we do a lot of high school. We do
- 22:09Speaker 1: a lot of high school. In fact, we're going to
- 22:11Speaker 1: be doing a lot more high school next year on
- 22:12Speaker 1: altitude Teleson. But let me, let me hold Colorado's feet
- 22:19Speaker 1: to the fire here. I've lived in Indiana, where high
- 22:22Speaker 1: school basketball is just the king. I've lived in Texas,
- 22:26Speaker 1: where high school football is unmatched, unrivaled high school hockey
- 22:30Speaker 1: in Minnesota. Our attendance at high school events here in
- 22:34Speaker 1: Colorado is pathetic. It's pathetic, and I don't know why
- 22:41Speaker 1: that's the case. I don't know. It's really awful. I
- 22:46Speaker 1: can you guys help explain that to me. It's not
- 22:49Speaker 1: even close to what it is at some of these
- 22:51Speaker 1: other states.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Well, I feel like the attendance even of college coaching
- 23:03Speaker 3: staffs recruiting these guys is a little bit thin, I'd say, And.
- 23:08Speaker 1: Maybe coach Sandford will address this in his show. But
- 23:12Speaker 1: I can only compare it to other states I've worked
- 23:14Speaker 1: in where it's hard to compare to Texas. Texas high
- 23:19Speaker 1: school football is supreme. But where are all our high
- 23:24Speaker 1: school families? Where do you go? Why aren't you at
- 23:27Speaker 1: these games? I couldn't wait to go to high school
- 23:31Speaker 1: games I lived.
- 23:32Speaker 2: At When I was watching All the Right Moves, Tom
- 23:37Speaker 2: Cruise Am Pipe had some pretty good fan base going on,
- 23:42Speaker 2: you know what I mean?
- 23:43Speaker 1: And Pipe, you know what The reason is? Transplants here, Yeah,
- 23:49Speaker 1: too many transplants.
- 23:50Speaker 2: I mean, but the kids, their kids play right, I know,
- 23:52Speaker 2: But the high.
- 23:53Speaker 1: School, the rivalries, the background, you know, all of the
- 23:57Speaker 1: stuff that takes place in high school sports. It's it's
- 24:01Speaker 1: lost on transplants, on new people that move here. They
- 24:03Speaker 1: don't care Holy.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Family versus little sisters of the I mean, that's that's
- 24:07Speaker 2: the truth.
- 24:08Speaker 1: That's the truth. You can you can say I'm wrong,
- 24:11Speaker 1: but it's the truth. You know, not I'm looking at
- 24:14Speaker 1: right now. You know nothing about high school sports here.
- 24:16Speaker 1: And I don't blame you. You're not to blame, but
- 24:19Speaker 1: you don't care because you're new. I mean, it's just
- 24:23Speaker 1: the value for you is not there yet. He's not.
- 24:26Speaker 1: I'm not indicting you as something. It's just part of
- 24:28Speaker 1: the deal of being a transplant town.
- 24:30Speaker 3: To be fair, if I.
- 24:31Speaker 4: Was still living in Omaha, unless I knew somebody playing
- 24:34Speaker 4: in the game, I probably wouldn't go either.
- 24:36Speaker 2: What's the what's the current? I don't know the name
- 24:38Speaker 2: of it. Now, there was a time. It's hard because
- 24:42Speaker 2: hockey's taking a you know, a lot, but I would
- 24:46Speaker 2: go to There's a beautiful stadium out near Parker, Colorado.
- 24:51Speaker 2: This is Parker Is it in the Loan Tree, whatever
- 24:53Speaker 2: it's in And I would just show up sometimes on
- 24:55Speaker 2: a Friday night just I don't know who's playing. My
- 24:58Speaker 2: daughter was a cheerleader, so I her do her thing.
- 25:01Speaker 2: But random Friday nights, I would show up and just
- 25:03Speaker 2: watch high school football, just to it. Just it's fun.
- 25:06Speaker 2: There's only one house event, have a dog in a
- 25:08Speaker 2: soda and watch high school football extras.
- 25:10Speaker 1: You have this right. There's one high school event that's
- 25:12Speaker 1: sold out every year, and it's hard to get a
- 25:13Speaker 1: ticket to the high school wrestling tournament at Ballerina, packed
- 25:18Speaker 1: packed packed. You wrestling fans. You don't mess around every
- 25:23Speaker 1: other sport. Sorry, I'm born and raised here, I tend
- 25:26Speaker 1: them all. I called the high school championship football games
- 25:30Speaker 1: up in four Collins.
- 25:31Speaker 2: Congratulations.
- 25:32Speaker 1: The attendance was paltry at best, but not good.
- 25:35Speaker 3: Yeah, Nellie says he has this.
- 25:40Speaker 4: I want to hear this side by side. This is
- 25:42Speaker 4: what happened at the beginning of the segment where I
- 25:44Speaker 4: was just casually asking, because if you're watching Anaheim in
- 25:47Speaker 4: Vegas last night, you're doing that with a sort of
- 25:50Speaker 4: interest in looking ahead at what a potential matchup could be.
- 25:53Speaker 4: Here's the way I asked the question. If you had
- 25:56Speaker 4: your preference, and I'm not putting any cart before a horse.
- 25:58Speaker 2: Oh you're doing this two game I'm not doing.
- 26:01Speaker 6: Then they interrupted you for about two consecutive minutes. So
- 26:04Speaker 6: I'm gonna skip forward a bit.
- 26:05Speaker 3: Sure we can all sit here and play the tend
- 26:07Speaker 3: and we can.
- 26:08Speaker 2: We can.
- 26:09Speaker 3: I'm not concerned at all with anything until the Avs
- 26:12Speaker 3: get through this.
- 26:13Speaker 4: If you watched Vegas and Anaheim, like you're watching it
- 26:18Speaker 4: trying to evaluate who would I rather play. If you
- 26:21Speaker 4: make it past you, you can do that. So that's
- 26:23Speaker 4: how I did it. Here's how Vic did it.
- 26:25Speaker 1: Let's envision an Avalanche victory in this series, what opponent
- 26:31Speaker 1: in the next round might be more ideal, more tasteful
- 26:35Speaker 1: for the AVS to compete again, You.
- 26:37Speaker 2: Know, Vic, that's a great question.
- 26:39Speaker 4: It sounds like something I said without interruption, it sounded
- 26:44Speaker 4: like to make I.
- 26:44Speaker 2: Don't know what it sounded like. I can tell you
- 26:46Speaker 2: what it felt like, and it felt like yours was
- 26:47Speaker 2: way more.
- 26:48Speaker 1: Brash, yes, distasteful.
- 26:53Speaker 2: You can you can say, you could say, this is
- 26:56Speaker 2: what it sounds like I mean to but what what
- 27:00Speaker 2: I'm hearing and what I'm feeling is totally different.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Most to open the segment, you're coming out of commercial.
- 27:05Speaker 1: All right, guys, let's look go ahead to the next round.
- 27:07Speaker 1: You want Vegas or aneims.
- 27:08Speaker 2: That's essentially what you know.
- 27:10Speaker 3: That's exactly what I said, pathetic.
- 27:12Speaker 2: It's not what I said. Week You guys can go out.
- 27:17Speaker 4: And try try and make me out to whatever sort
- 27:20Speaker 4: of straw man you want.
- 27:21Speaker 2: Me to be.
- 27:21Speaker 4: You know what I'll be or Huckleberry for that. If
- 27:23Speaker 4: that's what you want, I'll do that for you. But
- 27:25Speaker 4: it's not what I said.
- 27:30Speaker 2: Again, Perception is reality.
- 27:33Speaker 4: By the way, did you know the first two games
- 27:36Speaker 4: of the series, the Avalanche of scored fourteen goals, which,
- 27:40Speaker 4: over the last forty years in the NHL, the most
- 27:44Speaker 4: goals scored in the first two games of a series.
- 27:48Speaker 4: They're one off the mark. It's happened twice. Fifteen goals
- 27:52Speaker 4: scored by the nineteen eighty eight Calgary Flames.
- 27:55Speaker 2: Wow.
- 27:56Speaker 3: And fifteen goals scored by the nineteen eighty seven Edmond Oilers.
- 28:00Speaker 2: Wow. That's pretty cool. Yeah. Listen, they are beating you
- 28:07Speaker 2: however you want to play, and I think that's that's
- 28:10Speaker 2: what's so cool about it. I mean, we've seen three
- 28:13Speaker 2: different We've seen three different tactics employed against the ABS
- 28:17Speaker 2: so far in this postseason, have we not? Yes, because
- 28:20Speaker 2: the the the Wild didn't necessarily trap in Game two.
- 28:24Speaker 2: They just chipped it in and tried to play. They're
- 28:26Speaker 2: a good puck possession. They'll get me wrong. They try
- 28:29Speaker 2: to grind you down. They try to trap you through
- 28:32Speaker 2: the neutral zone all day long. Some what they tried
- 28:35Speaker 2: to do.
- 28:35Speaker 3: Do you think they try that in Game three?
- 28:37Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 28:38Speaker 3: They gotta try something.
- 28:40Speaker 2: What you're but then what you're doing is if you're
- 28:41Speaker 2: if you're the Minnesota Wild, then you're asking your team
- 28:45Speaker 2: to do something that's not in their DNA and see that's.
- 28:48Speaker 1: This is where is their game? Mos? What is what
- 28:50Speaker 1: is Minnesota's ideal game?
- 28:52Speaker 2: What is it? I think their ideal game would be
- 28:55Speaker 2: to skate with you?
- 28:57Speaker 1: So it played more like Game one.
- 28:59Speaker 2: Yeah. But if because because they have because they have
- 29:03Speaker 2: some terrific players, well then that's what they have to do.
- 29:06Speaker 1: I mean anything outside of that way.
- 29:07Speaker 2: And Vick, what I'm saying to you is that this
- 29:10Speaker 2: is the style. That's the style that when they acquired
- 29:13Speaker 2: Quinn Hughes, they got way better at he accounts. When
- 29:17Speaker 2: they got Quinn Hughes, You're ready for this? Everything opened up.
- 29:21Speaker 2: Their whole world opened up. Remember the Wizard of Oz
- 29:24Speaker 2: when Dorothy opens the friggin door and it goes from
- 29:26Speaker 2: black and white to color. That's exactly what happened to Minnesota.
- 29:32Speaker 2: It's bitching, isn't it's it's I saw it the sphere
- 29:35Speaker 2: in Vegas, dude, it was so cool. Blow your mind anyway,
- 29:38Speaker 2: That's what happened in Minnesota. He accounted for you ready
- 29:41Speaker 2: for this?
- 29:42Speaker 1: Not a fan of the tin Man, never have been,
- 29:46Speaker 1: because they had no heart just about him. He seemed
- 29:49Speaker 1: like a loser.
- 29:51Speaker 2: Scarecrow seemed more like a dork. To me than anything
- 29:53Speaker 2: in the line was just a total.
- 29:55Speaker 3: He was by definition by name, a coward totally.
- 29:59Speaker 2: But here's the thing, a loser. He accounted it for
- 30:04Speaker 2: a goal per game more for the Minnesota whild because
- 30:08Speaker 2: they could do so many more things with him because
- 30:10Speaker 2: of his puck moving and his puck handling abilities. Okay,
- 30:13Speaker 2: but his skating abilities. Everything opened up for them.
- 30:16Speaker 3: All of that being true, they wouldn't have to.
- 30:17Speaker 2: Grind their way through games anymore.
- 30:19Speaker 4: All of that being true, what happens when you play
- 30:22Speaker 4: your style of hockey and you realize it's not good
- 30:24Speaker 4: enough against the other team.
- 30:25Speaker 2: I don't know right, you know, you know what you're doing.
- 30:28Speaker 2: You change it, you get it out of the zone,
- 30:30Speaker 2: and you chip it down the boards and go chase.
- 30:33Speaker 2: Because that's what they did all game long, and lob
- 30:36Speaker 2: and they when they didn't chip it, they lobbed it
- 30:39Speaker 2: all game lobb in lob blah lob. They did not
- 30:43Speaker 2: they did not want to get poke checked anywhere near
- 30:45Speaker 2: the red line or the Avalanche blue line, because you
- 30:48Speaker 2: know what happens, They're gonna get transitioned to death.
- 30:51Speaker 1: Mos. Your voice played in the back of my mind
- 30:53Speaker 1: when I try to watch some of these other hockey
- 30:55Speaker 1: series going on. The first thing that hits me is
- 30:58Speaker 1: these guys are slow. Everybody's slow compared to the apps.
- 31:03Speaker 1: I mean, the games just look different than Carolina. Caroline
- 31:07Speaker 1: is pretty damn fast. I haven't seen I haven't seen
- 31:09Speaker 1: that series.
- 31:10Speaker 2: Yeah, let me let me they're going. They're going tonight
- 31:12Speaker 2: so you'll get an opportunity to see the game in Philly.
- 31:14Speaker 2: I think Philly is gonna be great. I watched Buffalo
- 31:16Speaker 2: in Montreal last night. Dudes, I don't think either of
- 31:20Speaker 2: these teams are super great teams, but that's gonna be
- 31:24Speaker 2: an entertaining series. In Buffalo is pretty damn good. It's
- 31:28Speaker 2: crazy to say, but they're pretty good.
- 31:30Speaker 3: If you had to choose, I mean.
- 31:31Speaker 2: Very good.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Would you rather lack a brain, a heart, or courage.
- 31:38Speaker 1: A brain?
- 31:39Speaker 2: Well, what's gonna get your furtherest?
- 31:40Speaker 1: Without a brain. Without a brain, you can't have either
- 31:42Speaker 1: the other two.
- 31:43Speaker 2: So yeah, you're you're If you're without a brain, you're
- 31:45Speaker 2: a scarecrow.
- 31:46Speaker 4: And you're I mean you're just not smart. I mean,
- 31:51Speaker 4: do it in the Wizard of Oz style. I mean
- 31:53Speaker 4: they're still alive.
- 31:54Speaker 2: I'd rather lack a heart because you can just go
- 31:58Speaker 2: around being a heartless but still, you know, if courage
- 32:02Speaker 2: or a brain, you're wanting to make it which one
- 32:04Speaker 2: of them?
- 32:04Speaker 1: Don't have a heart? The man man, See, I think
- 32:08Speaker 1: heart and courage are the same thing.
- 32:11Speaker 2: No, No, because heart it has to deal with like
- 32:14Speaker 2: compassion and love and all that kind.
- 32:16Speaker 4: Of scarecrow like he didn't have a brain, so he
- 32:19Speaker 4: felt fool. He was a total dip tin man didn't
- 32:21Speaker 4: have a heart and he just wanted to have the
- 32:23Speaker 4: love and compassion. Correct, I can live without that. Yeah,
- 32:28Speaker 4: the cowardly lion. He was ashamed of himself because he's like,
- 32:30Speaker 4: I'm a lion and I got no courage.
- 32:32Speaker 2: He had a bow in his hair.
- 32:34Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's pretty good.
- 32:39Speaker 2: Man. I tell you, I tell you, I tell you
- 32:43Speaker 2: I don't have any courage.
- 32:45Speaker 5: Tell you.
- 32:48Speaker 4: I like your answer the moch I mean I need
- 32:51Speaker 4: to be if you have a courage and a brain,
- 32:53Speaker 4: you can make it right. I can go around and
- 32:56Speaker 4: being a heartless to everybody, cannot care about it.
- 32:58Speaker 2: I can walk around this pla to be a total
- 33:00Speaker 2: all right.
- 33:02Speaker 1: So so Nellie signed the three of Us assign the three.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Lion.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Well, I mean you won't offend anyone.
- 33:12Speaker 6: I mean none of us, myself included, have brains, so
- 33:15Speaker 6: we're all whoever that is.
- 33:17Speaker 1: You have to.
- 33:20Speaker 3: Cowardly lion right now, you have the courage to make
- 33:22Speaker 3: the choices.
- 33:23Speaker 2: Okay, let's see.
- 33:24Speaker 6: I think, well, vic Vic he's got courage because he
- 33:28Speaker 6: takes swings at everyone on the text line, but he
- 33:30Speaker 6: doesn't have a heart more mosure. I think I don't
- 33:35Speaker 6: think Mosuer has the brain and you just don't, and
- 33:39Speaker 6: then you don't have courage.
- 33:40Speaker 3: I think that's actually for for the choices given. That's
- 33:43Speaker 3: pretty accurate. Yeah, that's pretty accurate.
- 33:45Speaker 1: I welcome mine and I wear it like a badge
- 33:48Speaker 1: of honor.
- 33:50Speaker 2: I think.
- 33:53Speaker 3: Most you're just the courageous, loving idiot.
- 34:00Speaker 2: There's no one on this program that that's more about
- 34:02Speaker 2: the world.
- 34:04Speaker 1: Dumb just a dumb face.
- 34:07Speaker 2: Nobody knows more about the world on this program than
- 34:10Speaker 2: I do. That's the other thing.
- 34:11Speaker 3: Which one of those is the most insulting. It's probably brainless?
- 34:15Speaker 5: Right?
- 34:15Speaker 2: Yes, by far, you actually eat?
- 34:20Speaker 3: Did you see that?
- 34:21Speaker 2: No? I think you're off.
- 34:23Speaker 6: And Brett, you might actually have courage. I mean you
- 34:25Speaker 6: you drunkenly ran a race against your friend and popped
- 34:29Speaker 6: your hand. I mean that does take super courage.
- 34:31Speaker 3: Well, no, that actually takes a life of brain.
- 34:34Speaker 6: That's maybe Mosier lacks courage and you lack the brain.
- 34:37Speaker 2: Maybe that is it.
- 34:38Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 34:39Speaker 3: Three oh three five.
- 34:40Speaker 2: Most camera off in his hotel room.
- 34:43Speaker 1: She's afraid you got an ad read this segment?
- 34:46Speaker 2: Nope, I don't have one for the rest of the show.
- 34:49Speaker 4: Oh by the way, Next, Oh, by the way, stories
- 34:51Speaker 4: around sports in the world we feel like you should
- 34:54Speaker 4: be aware of. How's about this? Oh by the way?
- 35:00Speaker 4: Comes out yesterday from Jake Trotter. Matt Campbell, who was
- 35:04Speaker 4: a the head coach of the Iowa State Cyclones forever,
- 35:08Speaker 4: just took the job at Penn State after James Franklin
- 35:11Speaker 4: was fired last year.
- 35:14Speaker 2: Did you know?
- 35:15Speaker 4: According to Jake Trotter, back in twenty twenty one, Matt
- 35:18Speaker 4: Campbell agreed to become the head coach of the Detroit
- 35:24Speaker 4: Lions really, then changed his mind, decided to stay in
- 35:28Speaker 4: college Detroit, then pivoted to Dan Campbell.
- 35:33Speaker 2: How many key about that? Are they related? No? No,
- 35:37Speaker 2: so Matt Campbell and Dan Campbell were not related. But
- 35:39Speaker 2: the old lady and Dampbell. Yeah, ch wit, you know
- 35:42Speaker 2: what the problem was? She's like, I like Campbell's soup.
- 35:48Speaker 2: She was in charge at Campbell for God's sake.
- 35:51Speaker 3: The daughter wasn't charged by that.
- 35:52Speaker 2: Don't be out here to catch your death.
- 35:59Speaker 1: I gotta know.
- 35:59Speaker 2: By the way, way, is that.
- 36:01Speaker 4: Interesting how stuff works? Somebody that ended up working out
- 36:04Speaker 4: for Detroit? But I mean, it's crazy.
- 36:06Speaker 2: Uh met up with Donnie White yesterday, had a coldie
- 36:10Speaker 2: talking Bob, and my wife is there? Do you realize
- 36:13Speaker 2: that she had not? She had She had no idea
- 36:17Speaker 2: about me talking to the old lady and all that stuff.
- 36:19Speaker 2: She thought. I was. I can't even tell you.
- 36:22Speaker 1: I don't know to tell you.
- 36:23Speaker 2: I don't know what she just said.
- 36:25Speaker 1: She did she did from from the beginning.
- 36:28Speaker 2: She did not.
- 36:28Speaker 1: First clip of me, no idea what that was. In
- 36:31Speaker 1: reference to who you lost every single person on this show,
- 36:36Speaker 1: in this audience.
- 36:37Speaker 2: She did not see me outside the arena talking to
- 36:39Speaker 2: the old lady. She'd never seen that. Who is she
- 36:41Speaker 2: my wife? She said? I said, my wife was there,
- 36:44Speaker 2: and it came up on never mind, gone go ahead,
- 36:48Speaker 2: don't stay out here catch your death. Okay.
- 36:52Speaker 1: By the way, the text line reminds me another reason
- 36:56Speaker 1: why high school sports is suffering greatly in terms of attendance.
- 37:00Speaker 1: In my opinion, club sports cannibalizing high school sports. Like
- 37:04Speaker 1: when my kid was playing club sports, you go to
- 37:06Speaker 1: all these damn games. Now there's another game. There's a game, game, game,
- 37:10Speaker 1: every game. It used to be, you know, the sanctity
- 37:14Speaker 1: of the high school season was special. Now it extends
- 37:17Speaker 1: twelve months out of the year. It's too many games.
- 37:20Speaker 1: You guys buy that.
- 37:21Speaker 4: Specially well, especially in base or I'm sorry basketball too.
- 37:24Speaker 3: I mean basketball, there's is it tougher two that. It's
- 37:28Speaker 3: just like there's a whole bunch of transferring that's happened.
- 37:31Speaker 4: Like transferring wasn't a thing when I was playing, and
- 37:33Speaker 4: I think I was towards the very end of that
- 37:35Speaker 4: before people really started like.
- 37:38Speaker 3: Was it Sanford that just told me? What the hell
- 37:42Speaker 3: was it?
- 37:42Speaker 4: Somebody who has told me there's a guy that's committed
- 37:44Speaker 4: to a big time or no, my brother in law said,
- 37:48Speaker 4: Nebraska's got a commitment at quarterback from a kid that's
- 37:52Speaker 4: from out of state. He is transferring to Lincoln his
- 37:56Speaker 4: senior year of high school to play in high school
- 37:59Speaker 4: in Nebraska and kind of work out with the hospital.
- 38:02Speaker 3: Real in the office, Like wow.
- 38:04Speaker 4: That's the commitment that people are going to high school.
- 38:07Speaker 4: Kids are transferring to the states that they're going to
- 38:10Speaker 4: be playing college football in.
- 38:12Speaker 2: I've I've heard of kids going to other states, but
- 38:17Speaker 2: not necessarily to this city that the school they're going
- 38:21Speaker 2: to be playing college at is located.
- 38:23Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 38:24Speaker 2: Wow.
- 38:25Speaker 4: Oh, by the way, Mike Cliss has this per source,
- 38:28Speaker 4: the Broncos are giving veteran quarterback.
- 38:32Speaker 3: Nathan Peterman a rookie mini camp tryout this weekend.
- 38:37Speaker 4: If you remember Nathan Peterman, he was the guy who
- 38:40Speaker 4: threw five interceptions in a half of football once that's unreal,
- 38:43Speaker 4: but very famously was on Hard Knocks with John Gruder
- 38:46Speaker 4: when this happened.
- 38:47Speaker 2: Hurry up, Nate, that guy, Hey, Nate, you got to
- 38:51Speaker 2: hurry up. Man, running out of time. My life is
- 38:56Speaker 2: running out of lifespan that name. Call him a house mouse,
- 39:01Speaker 2: like a house MoU is cassual like a house mouse? Right?
- 39:05Speaker 3: That is Nathan Peterman.
- 39:06Speaker 2: I mean he's Look, he's been an NFL quarterback, which
- 39:09Speaker 2: means he's a competent quarterback. Where would he where would
- 39:13Speaker 2: he fit with this? I mean we're talking practice squad stuff.
- 39:17Speaker 2: What are we talking about here?
- 39:20Speaker 4: I don't know, I need to understand what happens in
- 39:24Speaker 4: the NFL world. That no disrespect to Nathan Peterman. Why
- 39:29Speaker 4: is he still getting phone calls right now?
- 39:32Speaker 1: A lot of his training training camp fodder. You need
- 39:36Speaker 1: arms and camp.
- 39:36Speaker 4: But why wouldn't you get some guy who's like a
- 39:38Speaker 4: twenty three year old undrafted somebody behind that?
- 39:41Speaker 1: Hey, are you guys? By the way, are you guys
- 39:44Speaker 1: buying in all these I guess it's the JFK syndrome.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Bow's video that he released on Instagram of him running.
- 39:55Speaker 1: When was it? When did it take place?
- 39:58Speaker 2: This?
- 39:58Speaker 1: And that and houses ankle. Let me be the first
- 40:02Speaker 1: to say, can we just wait until camp to assess
- 40:07Speaker 1: where he is health wise? I mean, do we really
- 40:10Speaker 1: have to jump to these conclusions? Are we that bereft
- 40:14Speaker 1: of material that we're spending days talking about? Where's his?
- 40:20Speaker 1: I know we talked about it. I know we initially.
- 40:23Speaker 1: Maybe it's a bigger concern than you would think. Maybe
- 40:25Speaker 1: it's chronic maybe in this but until he actually until
- 40:29Speaker 1: we see him operate, do we have to go through
- 40:32Speaker 1: this soap opera?
- 40:34Speaker 2: I dig what you're saying. I completely agree that being said.
- 40:36Speaker 2: I'm listening to d Mac yesterday and the Bronco season
- 40:43Speaker 2: ticket renewal this offseason. It's the highest that's ever been.
- 40:48Speaker 1: What rightfully?
- 40:49Speaker 2: So people are people? I mean, look at AFC title game.
- 40:53Speaker 2: We'll get to that. Or people are jacked and they look, man,
- 40:57Speaker 2: they're worried about their quarterback being able to run.
- 41:00Speaker 1: You can be worried. But when we're breaking down videotape
- 41:03Speaker 1: and doing this stuff, I mean, what is going on
- 41:05Speaker 1: like voter film stuff.
- 41:07Speaker 3: Yes, I'm not.
- 41:08Speaker 4: I'm not concerned until he misses games. That's when Oh, hey,
- 41:12Speaker 4: I got.
- 41:12Speaker 2: One for you real quick. Of course it happened at
- 41:14Speaker 2: ten oh one yesterday, right after we get off the show.
- 41:17Speaker 2: Rock Nelson to the finals for the Selki. Yeah, along
- 41:19Speaker 2: with Nix Suzuki and Anthony.
- 41:20Speaker 3: Serrell playing the Selki to people because it's another award, this.
- 41:23Speaker 2: Solicit of Vic, hey, Vic, Anthony Cirelli. What I thought? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 41:31Speaker 1: You throw a vow my way and you want me
- 41:33Speaker 1: to pay attention? Yeah, I want you to dance? What
- 41:35Speaker 1: is the sands for me? It's the best defensive forward
- 41:38Speaker 1: in the National Hockey League. Nick Zuzuki will probably win
- 41:41Speaker 1: it for the Montreal Canadians, but Sorelli's a really good defender.
- 41:44Speaker 2: Brought Nelson really good defender. Pretty cool.
- 41:47Speaker 4: One other thing, Nelly, I DMed this to you. Can
- 41:49Speaker 4: you pull this video up from the Spurs game last night.
- 41:52Speaker 4: It's one of the most incredible things I've ever seen
- 41:54Speaker 4: in recent memory. So Spurs are beaten up on Minnesota
- 41:59Speaker 4: and I watched.
- 42:00Speaker 1: Oh, I think I know what you're gonna show us here.
- 42:02Speaker 4: I don't think I've ever seen this like it's it's remarkable.
- 42:05Speaker 4: So it's a sixty one to thirty five game. There's
- 42:09Speaker 4: a guy's battling underneath the hoop, getting towards the end
- 42:14Speaker 4: of the shot clock.
- 42:16Speaker 3: The Spurs grab a rebound and they chuck it out.
- 42:19Speaker 3: Is it Vassal in the corner?
- 42:20Speaker 2: I think, well, it's one of those vassals.
- 42:24Speaker 4: Easy on those, uh, but watch what happens here. Go
- 42:28Speaker 4: ahead and hit play Nelly. So rebound underneath, he throws
- 42:32Speaker 4: it out to the corner, and I think it's Vassal.
- 42:35Speaker 1: He's in mid motion as he gets the ball. For
- 42:37Speaker 1: those of you listening on radio with no video, Vassal
- 42:41Speaker 1: attempts to jump shot. The ball's not his hands yet
- 42:44Speaker 1: and he's already in mid jump because the shot clock's
- 42:46Speaker 1: about to expire.
- 42:47Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen that.
- 42:48Speaker 1: He's seen it.
- 42:49Speaker 4: He's almost at the peak of his shot and he
- 42:51Speaker 4: grabs it in mid air and as he's in mid air,
- 42:55Speaker 4: attempts the corner.
- 42:57Speaker 3: Three and drains it.
- 42:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 42:58Speaker 1: Tim Hardway did that this season really?
- 43:01Speaker 2: Yeah, like you're you're already in mid air when you
- 43:03Speaker 2: get the ball, then you shoot it.
- 43:04Speaker 1: Yeah, you already have to be in your shooting motion
- 43:06Speaker 1: and once you're in at the ball arrives.
- 43:08Speaker 2: See that's not part of MOSI buckets.
- 43:10Speaker 3: Uh no, don't do that.
- 43:12Speaker 2: No, nope, Uh there you go.
