• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the greatest thing that can happen to somebody
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: in life is being a parent. It's the most challenging
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: thing you can be in life as a parent as well.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: And it's the wild thing is is every day is
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: something new, and it doesn't matter how old they are,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter how if they're an infants, if
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: they're a toddler, if they're in preschool, kindergarten, grade school,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: high school, junior high, college, post college, it doesn't matter.

  Speaker 3: I will tell you this. Every day gets better. That's good.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: And every day you.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Will discover something in your life that you probably couldn't comprehend.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: The level of love.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: You have for a creature, and I say a creature
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: with all due respect. Yeah, you love your wife, you
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: love your spouse, siblings, what have you parents, parents, It's
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: different level. Yeah, it is just different level. And and
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I think in for a lot of people, for most
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: of us, it probably in some ways makes you better
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: as an adult.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: As an adult as well, so changes a lot of perspective.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: This is the first time, like in my life, I've
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: been really in charge of another life for him obviously,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: So that's that's been an adjustment period for me. I'm
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: someone who kind of I'm not paranoid, but I definitely
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: like am making sure everything's okay and stuff like that,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: as every first time parent would be.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: There.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's the stress.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: There's that stress, and there's gonna be things that seem
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: really massive and really stressful, and then you'll look back
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: in a couple of years or even a couple of
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: months ago, I guess it wasn't that bad. You know,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: all the fun things like, oh my gosh, you just
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: threw up. Okay, well that happens. The ear infections it'll come,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: and all the other fun stuff and yeah, I mean
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: it's it's all of that happens.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: But you have a son, and that's really cool.
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: Ye.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Daughters are awesome. Sons are awesome. They're equally awesome. But
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: if we just want to take this the two out, Uh,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: you got a little guy that can you know that
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: you can hang out with, you know, like I my
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: my son and I are probably closer than we've ever been.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: And you know, I enjoy every second with him. Uh,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: you know, once he gets his career going a little
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: bit more and and everything like that, he's he's gonna
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: be gone for good. And it's gonna suck. Yeah, my
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: wife and I talked about that all the time. You know,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: our daughter left right after college. Uh, luckily keeps back
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: for a little bit, but he'll be gone in the
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: next few months. And it's it's hard, but enjoy every
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: second of it, whether it's changing a diaper or getting
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: up at three in the morning.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: What kind of TV's on it three in the morning.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: By the way, Well, US Hockey was on at five,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: so that helped. That helped a lot.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: On Sunday, I was like when Jackies scored that game
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: winning goal, I was jumping, but like silently, like.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: The silent cheer, the silent cheer, Oh my gosh, so good.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: The silent cheer is nothing like the silent cheer exactly.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I remember when our when our daughter was born, we
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: were living in Tri Cities and a little small, little
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: small condo and Tri Cities and went like what we
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: cherished a few months a couple months into it the
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: like a rare like Friday night when there was I
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: was doing working for the Tri City Americans and I
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: was doing the play by play for them. Uh, like
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: the rare Friday or Saturday night where we didn't have
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: a game and it's like, okay, let's let's i'll get takeout.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: We could sit back and watch TV and hopefully'll be
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: sleeping and all that. You know, you come back and
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: we had a couple of little spots and bring food
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: back and then next thing you know, they're like one
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: bite in, she starts crying and it's just like the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: end of the world, and.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Like, yeah, we have some peace.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: No, but but that's I cherish those times as well.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: I cherish, Yeah.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: I cherish. I'll tell you what I really cherish, honestly.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: And you're gonna find this out later because I know
• 4:47

  Speaker 1: hopefully throwing a baseball around. You know, I say, get
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: them on skates out of CASEYI, whatever you want to do.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: But the draw and I think every parent out there

• 11:48
  Speaker 5: doing the game together when Johnny Forslun's on assignment and
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: I'm actually in home at Chicago. I got a change
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: of clothes and I'm headed out to LA I got
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: a TNT game there tomorrow night, the Kings and Golden Knights,
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: and then I'll work my way to Saint Louis, catch
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: up with Piper and Johnny and JT for the game
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: on Thursday, and then I'll get a couple of days
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: off at home, and then I will the plan is
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: has come see you on Monday nights. So just got
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: home from Milan late last night, and it's what we do.
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: And I'll be honest, it's the first I haven't watched
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: the gold medal game back yet, but just hearing what
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: I was saying, it inspired me as a young twelve
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: thirteen year old boy growing up in Chicago and seeing
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: the Miry clon ice in nineteen eighty and all I
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: wanted to do was play for USA, and I didn't
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: know how it would happen e at that time. I
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: thought maybe maybe when I was an old guy, maybe
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: when I was twenty one or twenty four, twenty five,
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: and I got the opportunity in nineteen eighty four when
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: I was seventeen years old to play in the Olympics
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: for kem USA and and try and following the footsteps
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: of the miracle on ice. And I was able to
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: do that. And you know, we did not perform well.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: We actually lost to Canada in our very first game
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: of the tournament and was just downhill from there. But
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: I see what happened forty six.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Years later, and I know I feel it.
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: And I'm glad I said what I did, is that
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: I know there are young boys and girls out there
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: that saw what both teams did at the Olympics, and
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: there there are I believe there are going to be
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: players that will pick up the game of hockey or
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: are playing now and that will just get put the
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: fire in their belly that that's what their goal is.
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: And then they're going to get the opportunity and you
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: know whatever they am ont the years, ten years, twenty years,
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: whatever it's going to be. So I just think it's
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: a win win for the greatest game in the world.
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: And obviously it makes it even better when keen USA
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: can get the ultimate daily double in hockey, when the
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: men and women can can get the goals so I
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: appreciate you having me on. And it was a great
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: couple of weeks, a little long, a lot of hockey,
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: but couldn't have worked out any better because that gold
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: medal game had a little bit of everything.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Well it did, And so I think I'll just tell
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: you this.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: On Saturday, when the bronze medal game was going on,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I was out at kCi. We had a little season
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: ticket thing that we did a zoom call with with
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Alex Mandricky and Lane Lambert. But it came after the
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: bronze medal game and the thirty two Bar and Grill
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: was packed, and it was packed with young families, hockey families,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: a lot of hockey families. But they're watching the bronze
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: medal game. When Coppococo scored, the place erupted like it
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: was a US game. And you know, Ellie had a
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: couple of assists in that game. That was just the
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: warm up for what came Sunday. But I bring that
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: up for this reason, the inspiration and the ability for
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: young people to say, hey, that's given me a reason
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: to want to play the game or love the game.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: We see that at Casey Out. The place was packed
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: all day there was junior games, minor games going on
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: all day. The growth of the game is at an
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: all time high. People want to say, is it going
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: to be a jumpstart for the NHL and this and that.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I think what you said is the most important thing.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: The grassroots element eds though, right, Like, what this can
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: do at the grassroots level for the sport I think
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: is immeasurable.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Well it is.
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: And you think about nineteen eighty again, and I go
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: back to that, because that was you know, it was
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: a miracle on ice with a bunch of amateur kids.
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: College kids are going playing against professionals and the big
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: bad Russians and what have you. But at that time,
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: and how many NHL teams did we have the maybe
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: maybe eighteen.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: Maybe you know eighteen something out.
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: There, but yeah, right, so okay, it's just say twenty. Okay, Well,
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: now now we have thirty two, and now we have
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: teams and markets like Seattle, like Vegas, Florida teams. So
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: you're gonna get that bump and that push. And that's
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: great to hear. And I know that that was like
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: you know the scene it you know, the scene of
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: CACI is the scene that was right across the country
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: and people rallied around this team and the women's team,
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: and I just do believe it does have a huge
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: impact at the most important level, and that is at
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: the grassroofs level. And look, we we'd love to think
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: that it's going to have an impact in the NHL
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: and hopefully, I hope all of these teams celebrate the Olympians,
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: whether they were there and they participated, and I'm talking coaches, trainers,
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: players acknowledge them if they you know, played and they
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: got a medal, like you know, you know the finn guys,
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: did you know what? They should be absolutely recognized and
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: think about being the best athletes at your particular sport,
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: representing your country. And that's good for the game. That's
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: good for the NHL, and I hope it continues because
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: it's you know, we just want to see the game
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: to continue to grow and prosper and you know, now
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: you get back into it, and you know how the
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: team's going to re getting into yeah, you know, after
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: being off a couple of weeks, so that that's that's
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: the unknown, and some teams are gonna prosper eat and
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: some teams it's gonna be a real difficult challenge for
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: a lot of different reasons. But I think it's a
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: win win and the players wanted to tea you know,
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: the NHL collective they you know, they collectively bargained for it,
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: and uh, you know it's I think it's a win win,
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: especially with the uh the ultimate you know, gold medal game,
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: so to speak for for Canada against the US.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, listen, best on best. It's just different. It's special. Uh,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: It's it's also something we hadn't seen for too long.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: But I think hopefully without those days are behind us. Yeah,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: when he went into that tournament and and you and
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Kenny and and my buddy Brian Bouche, I just got
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: a side note for me.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: It was cool. I mean, Bouche was Uh.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Bousch played as juniors in tri cities in the central
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: part of our state, so he's got he's got Washington
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: state connections. And I remember sitting on the bus with
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: a seventeen year old kid named Brian Bouchet. And if
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: he would have told me he'd be doing games at
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: the end of the Olympics on national team, I probably
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: would have agreed with you, because he was always that kid.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: He's well spoken, but personally for me watching the two
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: guys I really enjoy and like a lot do.
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: It was fun.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: But when you guys went into that tournament and you're
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: doing your prep back of your mind, if I think,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: if everyone's being honest, I think if the frankly outside
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: of some of those other countries like Finland and Sweden
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: were being honest, that's what we wanted, right, We wanted
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Us Canada and we got it. Did we see the
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: two best teams not only in the world, but maybe
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: two of the best teams ever playing on Sunday?
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: The second part of that, I would have to really
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: dig deep and think, because there's been some pretty good
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: Olympic squads over the years that just you know, go.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: To twenty ten. Yeah, I get you, Yeah right, yeah,
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: I mean there's been.
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: Some, you know, but look, they come off short at
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: the at the at the you know, at the most
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: crucial time going in, I felt I felt like Chechia
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: was a sleeper and they proved out being you know,
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: they ended up being a sleeper team because they had
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: Canada over a bee in that game and they weren't
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: able to you know, to to be able to take
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: them out. I thought Canada was the favorite, rightfully, so
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: the Americans, uh, you know, the Finns and the Swedes.
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: I looked at the Swedes and thought that with their defense,
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: and I said it during one of the games, and
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: I hope everybody in Seattle heard it, and I just
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: hope hockey people heard it. A guy like Adam Larson, Yeah,
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: you're Seattle Kraken, no pun intended. I can't believe that
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: he can't get a crack into that lineup for Team Sweden.
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: Late you like, they're so deep. I understand, I understand,
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: Trust me, I understand they're they're deep. And he said that, well,
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: who's coming out? You know, I get it. But Adam
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: Larson is a hell of a defenseman and like a
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: shutdown defenceman, and like Grassmus Anderson who played in Calgary
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: got traded to Vegas, like and I don't you know,
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: it's different than the NHL for the most part because
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: you don't really really get any injury updates or sicknesses
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: or whatever. I don't know why he didn't play the
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: last couple of games, but my point is is how
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: deep was Sweden's defense when Adam Larson ken even get
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: a crack yea, and he is awesome two way defenseman
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: and just so anyways, I thought Sweden could be that
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: team because they could defend. Now, I wasn't sure on
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: their goaltending, but their goaltending ended up being pretty darn good.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: And again they had they you know, they stuck with
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: the Americans and all of a sudden it's an overtime
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: game and who knows what happens in three on three
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: and the rest is history. So I I you know,
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: deep down, yeah, I look, I lived at American born player.
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: Our art rival has always been Canada.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: We have not.
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: We are not Canada's our rival. We are not because
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: they've always beaten us pretty much for the most part.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: At the best I'm best and at the highest level
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: all the time. That's changing at lower levels, it's changing
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: at the World Juniors we see how even the women
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: have been. But at the men, it's always has been
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: Canada and their greatest rival, I think is and always
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: will be will be the Russians. We know why the
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: Russians weren't there. That's for another day. But for me,
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: it's not only about the winning aspect d but it
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: is about the respect factor and team USA new going
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: in coming off the Four Nations last year. They were
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: banged up. No Quinn Hughes, no Charlie McAvoy, Matthew Kachuck
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: was playing on one leg. But injuries are a part
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: of it. Team Canada didn't have Sidney Crosby, they didn't
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: have Josh Morrissey. It happened. So you've got to rely
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: on your depth. And I think the one thing that
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: we've done in USA hockey is that we can sit
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: there and say we can put twenty of our best
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: players at any level now and we can compete with
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: the very best and more times than not, the best
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: of the Canadians are friends to the North. But until
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: the men continuously or I shouldn't say continuously, until that
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: they can be consistent and take out arch rivals, they
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: will always be our rival. And to be able to
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: see them do it in person and the first time
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: really at the biggest, at the largest level, take the
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: ninety six World Cup out of it since nineteen eighty,
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: that is a huge jumping off point for Team USA,
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: and I think we have a lot of a lot
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: of places to go with this. So I think we
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: thought at NBC, at least our group we thought that
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: that's the way that it would work. But e you
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: get into the quarterfinals, buddy, it's a one game, you know.
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: And think about the goldtanging effort that tm USA got
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: from Connor Hallibuck to see Cannon in the gold medal game.
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: Somebody could easily do that in the quarterfinals or in
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: the semi finals. And that's just the way sometimes the
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: punk bounces. So you just never know. Any Olympic competition.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: It was crazy, and we had it's like a year
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: off of best on best and then at the World
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Cup in a couple of years and I'm going to
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: guess our neighbors in the North will be ready to
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: go for that one for sure, and that rivalry will
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: be will be renewed. I'll wrap up that I want
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: to get to the Crack in the second, but just
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: the one final thing there as a one of the
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: greatest you know, hockey players our country's ever produced. You've
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you've and you've played in big markets. You know exactly
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: what it's like. You hear the quote narrative. Hell, we
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: do storylines on the Crack and Hockey Network every night.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: You know what's the storylines to night. One of those
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: storylines was you know, can Austin Matthews, the captain for
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Team USA Toronto maple if can he win the big one?
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Can Connor Hellibuck perform an of the biggest you know
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: on the stage, or even you know, on the other side,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Connor McDavid, what have you. There's going to be someone
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: who loses Connor Hellibuck. I mean the Jim Craig you
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: kind of mentioned it with the flag around him in
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: the in the post game. What Connor Hellibuck did? He
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: probably put to rest any any question who the best
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: goaltend in the world is, didn't he?
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: Well, you look at what he's done in the league
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: in the regular seasons, and he's bes in a trophy
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: for the best goalie in the league a couple of times,
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: MVP of the entire league, the best player in the
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: entire National Hockey League. He's won that. Yeah, he's made
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: a run or two in the playoffs, but nothing to
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: get to the A Stanley Cup Final last year was
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: MVP best Goalie and they lost out, you know, and
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: what was that the second round? Right because they had
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: that big comeback against Saint Louis last year winning a
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: game Steven over Jordan Bennington, by the way, who is
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: the goaltender. Yeah, for Team Canada. So a little karma
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: there on the side of Connor Hellibuck. And I said
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: it he in the third period when they were getting
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: all those chances, I just said, tays got it. Try
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: to get this to overtime because it could easily been
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: three or four to one, right, yeah, do you agree
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: with that?
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: Easily easily? I didn't see.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: I didn't see the analytics of goals saved above and
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: all that, but there had to be four or five
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: of them right now?
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: No?
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: Please?
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, like, yeah, you could see with your own eyes.
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: You did. You didn't need to look at the computer
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: and sit there and go, Man, they should have three
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: or four goals by now, but they didn't. And that's
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: why the goaltending and I believe in and all all
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: due respect to quarterback Super Bowl champion Sam Darnold, and
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: congratulations into the Hawks. By the way, I was over there,
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: he'll appreciate this because I did have a little I
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: did get a little. I did get my seat wet
• 25:08
  Speaker 5: in the game, and I I knew the Hawks were
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: going to win, and I thought it would be a
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: little scoring games. So that's all I'm going to say.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: But at three o'clock in the morning.
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: I'm watching from Milan. I got I was great. I
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: was watching on I watched. I think I watched on
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: the Polish channel in my room, the Italian channel, and
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: I think I got about five minutes of Tarico and
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: Collinsworth because I think they lost their audio somewhere in
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: in in Italy. So I got a little of our
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: our language English, I think that is. And then and
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: then so I was. I was super happy with the outcome. Seriously,
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: congratulations to to uh Seahawk Nation. Just an incredible year
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: and it was it was really fun to watch. But
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: Connor hellibuck to me, in the game of hockey, when
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: you're talking about a one gamer, if you can get
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: that goaltending, you got a shot. And I think it's
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: the most important position in in all of sports. And
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: I know you need a good quarterback. I understand that,
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: But that again, that's for another show. He proved to
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: be that guy and the biggest game arguably, and I
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: heard you say it before you brought me on. You
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: would argue, this is the biggest hockey game that we've
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: had in our country, probably since the twenty ten gold
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: medal game between the US and Canada. And you want
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: to even go back farther than that, you can go
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: back to the miracle on ice games and pick whichever
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: game you want.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think just the world smaller with social media
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: and stuff. So I think that's why the magnitude was
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: even greater. Sure, before it gets a crack and one more,
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: just real quick three on three your thoughts on that
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: everyone's talking about across the country. Just a quick thought
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: on three on three to decide the game.
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, you know, I'm old school guys, so I'd
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: like to see five on five for Well, let's paint
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: the picture first. It's the last event of the Olympics.
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: You got the closing ceremonies two hours right after the
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: gold medal game. We've seen a NHL games go what
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: three overtime, four overtime.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: The whole entire game. Yeah, exactly.
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: How great would it be e for a gold medal
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: game that's going into a double overtime? Could you imagine
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: the rush of people that maybe have never watched hockey before. Yeah,
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: and all of a sudden, you're getting to fifty and
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: I believe this, I believe you could get to fifty
• 27:18
  Speaker 5: or sixty or seventy million people that would turn on
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: their televisions on a Sunday late morning, and again you
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: want to talk about the day and should that game,
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: Should the gold medal game be on Saturday night, if
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: there's an eight hour difference or whatever. Okay, you could
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: argue that all you want. But the overtime question, I'd
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: like to see five on five. You want to play,
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: you want to play twenty minutes five on five and
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: get a winner. Okay, fine, But the next overtime I
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: think you got to get I think you got to
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: go to four on four and then you go to
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: three on three because I just where it's placed and
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: the closing ceremonies that's not going to mess. So five
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: on five for me is good for a period of time.
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: But then I think it's got to go to four
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: on four. In three on three, they don't want to
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: see a shootout, Yeah, decide the gold medal.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: I agree with you one hundred percent with those shootout
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Eddie olcheck with me. All right, Krack can get back
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: at it tomorrow. They sit right now in third place
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: in the Pacific Division. They're only five points out of first,
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: but they're only three clear of the La Kings, who
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: were the first team out of the wild card race.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: It's it's that kind of year in the West Lane. Lambert,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Chris Taylor, Erson de Clouths, Jess Campbe. They've done a
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: hell of a job with this team this season, ed Zoe.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: They start with Dallas Saint Louis back to back, Vancouver
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: at home on Saturday. The math would tell me they
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: need about what probably if they go fifteen ten and
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: one something like that, they'll they'll probably get in. But
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: some thoughts on Eddie heading into the final third of
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: the season.
• 28:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they've gone the Laye and his staff, they really have.
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: They've done a really really good job and considering you
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: look back at the game's man lost and they found
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: the way. The goaltending, i mean, Grooby has been Grooby
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: played well over and over at the Olympics too, By
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: the way, for Germany, the goaltending has been good. It's
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: been very good at times, which has been obviously. Great
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: health I think will be a real key here. I'd
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: love to see them be able to get through eighty
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: ninety percent of their games without getting banged up and
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: really getting some momentum here. But as I said it earlier,
• 29:22
  Speaker 5: you just don't know with this break how the guys
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: that played over in the Olympics are going to know
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: how they're going to perform. And then the timing of
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: the guys that have had you know, however many days,
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: sixteen seventeen, whatever the number is right, and then you're
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: going to play a really a lot of games in
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: a short period of time. But I agree, I believe,
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: I believe that they do control. I believe that they
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: do control their own destiny. And if they can play
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: to the numbers that they've had and they can find
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: a way to limit the damage of the five and
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: six gamers where you're only getting two points or three points,
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: they give themselves a hell of a chance to be
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: right there to possibly get home ice within the division
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: to start the playoffs. And how great would that be
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: a time with Pledge Arena to get home mifes in
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: the playoffs. So I just think that the power play
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: to me, and we talked about it last year, we
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: talked about it in the offseason, we talked a lot
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: about it. To me, the power play is really, I
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: think been the igniter and the savor in all the
• 30:28
  Speaker 5: same equation because it's kept them in games. It's one
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: of some games. And if you can be a threat
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: on the power play, then I think that that teams
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: understand is you can't take liberties and you can't take
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: advantage and try to push them around. And I think
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: with the power play that they have, if they can
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: just continue to stay with it, I think the power
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: play has a heck of a chance to put them
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: in a spot to get a playoff position. And that
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: would be obviously very exciting for everybody because, you know what,
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: let's call it what it is. There's a lot of
• 31:00
  Speaker 5: pressure in town considering what just happened a couple of
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: weeks ago. And oh, by the way, yeah, let's not
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: forget the Big Dumper and the crew. They had a
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: hell of a season last year, so they know that,
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: the people upstairs and all that. The players know that,
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: and I think to this point, I think crack and
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: fans should be really pleased with the season and now
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: continue to support and and come out and show this
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: team that you know that they believe. I think it's
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: got a chance to be really exciting. So you want
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: to be there front and center, and if you can't,
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: you can turn on the old TV and check us
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: all out on the Crack and Hockey Network, and hopefully
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: we'll be bringing you some fun and and some some
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: wins every once in a while as we go down
• 31:41
  Speaker 5: the stretch.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Win or lose, we always have fun. There's no doubt
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: about that. With the crew, There's there's absolutely no there's
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: no doubt about that. There is no doubt about that
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, back at it tomorrow for thirty pre
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: game show and then ed ze back with with the
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: crew on Thursday in Saint Louis for that game. Trade
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: deadline coming up, so I'll probably bother you when we
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: get to that point as well. I'll let you get
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: a little rest before you jump on the plane. I'm excited.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: I was just gonna ask you. I didn't know if
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: you were doing Monday's game that I'm doing with Caroline
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: or not. But I think that's my I think that's
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: my last game in Johnny seat this year. He kicked
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: me out after that final game so after that, but
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: I'm glad you're gonna be there with me.
• 32:12
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: I'll look forward to it.
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, you know what, I got some connections I
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: could maybe get them. I'll take to a chair for
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: a twenty four hours man or you know we can't
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: do that with Johnny Legend, he's a legend. Yeah, all
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: your listeners, Yeah, you've done. You've done an awesome job
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: and it's been a real pleasure to be able to
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: sit next to you for the four or five games
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: we've done. And I know it's not an easy chair
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: to sit in, and especially a guy like Johnny forzan,
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: but you should be when you look in the mirror there.
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, you should feel good about yourself the job
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: that you've done, and you ever need a winger on
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: the side at any point moving forward, you can always
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: call old Ed Zoe and I'd be happy to take
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: a ship with you on the line.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: I love that. I appreciate that.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: It's been a ton of fun working with you and
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: JT and Piper and everybody else. And I will say
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: this as we get ready for that game. I've got
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: the car ready to go in case I have to
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: drive you home on Monday. I've bet I've got my list.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: Of duty as long as the reclines we're good exactly.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: My wife doesn't think I'm a very good driver, though,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: so it might not be an upgrade over Johnny.
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: So we'll see, we'll see.
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, I'll.
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: Get the blindfold out.
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: I wore all the way home from Milan to try
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: to sleep for seven minutes on a nine hour and
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: fifty nine minutes and twenty two second flight from Milan
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: to Atlanta.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: So but who's counting, But who's counting?
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: Both blindfolds and we'll go from them.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: And I'm glad you bet the under two well done
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: on that big game a couple of weeks ago.
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: Smart move.
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: Somebody.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Hopefully somebody gave you some good advice along the way
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: in the nflc sway time out here.
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I didn't say anything about over under. I
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: just said I was happy that there weren't a lot
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: of points. There is technicality. Don't forget that there is.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: Technically there is.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Indeed there is indeed that safe travels to LA And
• 33:51

  Speaker 1: Look for you on Thursday, and I'll see you this
• 33:53

• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Thanks Edzo all right, love man, talk take care. That's
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: edy old one of my favorite people, ed Zoe in
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: the world.
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: He is Uh, we're lucky to have him. We are Andrews.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: We are really lucky to have him on the call.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Him and Johnny do an incredible job and I love
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: getting the chance to work with him on occasion. It's
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: I can tell you this, every broadcast you get him
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: tuned in with him and Johnny, and if it's Johnny,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: if it's if it's him and me, whoever, doesn't matter,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: there's going to be last. No matter how the game
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: turns out, you're going to be entertained. Definitely, You're going
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: to be entertained at some point, largely because of him.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: All Right, we'll take a break, come back. We'll quickly
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: update you on the combine what's going on with the Seahawks,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Ken Walker and free agency?
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: What did John Schneider say today? We'll tell you next.
• 34:38
  Speaker 6: From the R and R Foundation Specialist Broadcast Studio. Now
• 34:42
  Speaker 6: back to Ian Fernez powered by Seapple, Close to the
• 34:46
  Speaker 6: sports book Snow call me Casino and Hotel on Sports
• 34:49
  Speaker 6: Radio ninety three point three kJ R F M.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: All right, John Lovell join us top of the are
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: I just feel quick combine media availability today?
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: John Seahawks GM was there? Cordy were on?
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell from the New Tacoma News Tribune and others
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: that were there. But I don't want to say it's
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: a nothing burger because anytime John Schneider speaks, he doesn't
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: talk a lot to the media, to the general media.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Does talk to state owned media every now and then,
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: I think does a bunch of stuff them. But state
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: owned is safe, and we're not safe when you get
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: out of that little comfort zone.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: The uh.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Just talking about Ken Walker, I mean, I think that's
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: the top Listen, they've got some time to work with
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: as far as Witherspoon and JSN. They were both first
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: round picks, so they've they've got time to work with
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: those guys. Extensions and you know, options for the fifth
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: year and all those things. Walker's obviously the top of
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: the list. Joe Bin Wooling after that, probably, but he
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: when asked about Ken Walker, he just says, we'd love
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: to resign him. I'm gonna paraphrase here, love to resign him.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Depends on how it fits though. With a seventy man
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: I love how they do this. A seventy man roster
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: for the twenty twenty sixth season. They don't talk about
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: fifty three roster as they talk about all seventy, including
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: the practice squad. But that's how they have to operate
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: because sometimes you pay guys more in terms of free agency,
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: in terms of guys coming in as undrafted free agents,
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: which might be bigger for them this year than in
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: the year's past, just if nothing else. Because they only
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: have four draft picks right now. Yeah, I think we
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: all assume they'll have more than four. They'll do something
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: along the way to get more than four draft picks
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: when we get to that weekend in the second last
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: weekend in April for the NFL Draft, But right now
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: they have four so undrafted free agents this season, what
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: the money you have to allocate to those guys will
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: be higher than maybe a normal year. But I didn't
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: expect him to say anything like yeah, And he wouldn't
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: comment on the franchise tag whether they'd use it or not.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: We know that he's adverse to doing that and has
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: been since twenty ten when he got here, which is fine.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: They the Walker camp also has some juice because they're
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: starting to see kind of where the money would be
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: for a high end running back. Now, what we don't
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: know is how team look at and value the playoffs.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: If he'd based it on the regular season, ken Walker's
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: probably a seven or eight million dollar running back.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe about ten twelve.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: But then you add the playoffs in there, it jumps
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: up into eight figures. Yes, And if that is indeed
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: what the market dictates, we don't know what the market dictates.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: The best thing about the combine is all the coaches,
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: or not the coaches, because a lot of coaches aren't
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: actually there this year. All the gms are there, team presidents,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: personnel guys and you know else is all there. Every
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: agent that matters is there. So now you start to
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: get a feel for what the market is for different players.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: What's the market for Josh Jill, what's the market for Riquillen,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: what's the market for ken Walker? I think Mafe is
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: a guy they're going to let walk. Okay, I'm just guessing,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: but honestly hasn't taken that step. Isn't worth the money
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: the way they rush the pass or by committee, if
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: it's not like he's an elite pass rusher by any
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: stretch of the imagination. Longest Tank Lawrence is back, and
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: you know you got a healthy channel in NUOSU. Derek
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: Hall's got another year left on his deal. You're okay there,
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: You're you're okay there. The question is those other guys
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: I mentioned and the other thing we don't know. Nobody
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: knows except for the guys inside the Virginia Mason Athletics Center.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Who is the priority? Is the priority one of the
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: two corners I just mentioned? Is it the running back?
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: You know?
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, what what is the priority for those guys?
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: You would think it would be the easiest to replace, right,
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: both in terms of their quality drop off from who
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: you would get and what there's available on the marks
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: of the.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: Running back you mean or anything? Yeah, yeah, right, with
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: the priorities. The difference is and we talked to Rang
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: about this a lot this year. The running back class
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: outs Jeremiah Love and then the drop off is significant,
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: like significant. There's a lot of free agent running backs
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: out there. A couple guys have already resigned. That kind
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: of gives you the basis to where Ken Walker is.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: I guess it.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: You know, would he take you know, a three year,
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: thirty plus million dollar deal with fifteen or sixteen guaranteed
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: up front because they could certainly do that with the
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: cap room they have. Yes, I just I long ago
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: stop trying to read into and decide and try to
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: speculate to what John Schneider is thinking.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: Well, especially the combine, because there's been a bunch of
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: people that have you know, put on social media after
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: he said the words that you just said about Kenneth
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Walker that like always said the same thing about Gino Smith, right, oh,
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: you know, bringing him back he's our quarterback, like right
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: before they traded him.
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: Same thing with Russell Wilson like that. It's just they're
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: never going to tell you.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: And two things I would say with that one quarterback
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: completely different, a completely different just not just position, but
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: completely different in terms you have how you have to
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: handle that player, right because of his status on the team.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: So but two, remember what you just said. Those two
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: guys stuff happened because of the combine. Right, So this
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: is my whole point. This is the week as we
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: get closer and closer the starre of the league year,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: this is when things really kind of can start happening.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, we'll, we'll, we might even check in with
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: Greg tomorrow on the show, but it's it. This is
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: where things start happening, and this is where people are talking.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, at least you don't have your star left tackle
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: that might not come back well.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: And that's and we'll talk about that with uh with
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: our friend John Lunn coming up and we'll do that
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: coming up. And just by the way, March eleventh is
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: when the league year begins and all that fun stuff.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: So we'll get to that. That's coming up two weeks right.
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: Just about Yeah, a little bit longer, but two athletes.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: Two and nef Weliks okay coming back next, John Lund

  Speaker 1: Here's the thing. Here's the thing. I got it to
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: slightly defend myself nor not not that I should have to,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: but I mean, you have a problem if you're trying
• 43:59

• 45:34
  Speaker 1: good though, man, Like when I was on hold, I'm like, yeah,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: this guy sounds almost like he knows what the.

• 45:47
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's like that that guy.

  Speaker 4: Yeah, so he's the one doing the voice work. So
• 45:54
  Speaker 4: we come back into the segment it's like no Westwood
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: would present John Love and it's like it sounds like
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: I know what I'm doing, but I clear. But you
• 46:03
  Speaker 4: know you got you get voice guy, I got Monday
• 46:05

• 46:28
  Speaker 4: Harlan and all the professionals that they throw me in there.
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: You know, all these guys, it's like, who's this guy?
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: But man as a as a as a hockey guy,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: but overall it all gets to football here in second,
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: but as a hockey guy.
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: The numbers just came out a second ago.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: So the average, the average twenty point seven million viewers.
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: That peaked at twenty six million. It's the most watched.
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: It's the most watched sporting event in US history. That
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: was pre not nine am, which let's just think about
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: that for a second, because that's Eastern time like for
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: you and me and everybody else, and like let's just
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: even go Mountain time zone where there's a big hockey
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: markets in Salt Lake and Colorado for example, it was
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: at six am there, right, and it was at five
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: am for all of us. That number is monstrous, Like
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: that is massive, massive number.
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, my my producer and I that night
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: we're talking about it because we do so I do
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: on Saturdays. I do like a five hour show that
• 47:31
  Speaker 4: gets off the air at one A or midnight at
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: midnight Pacific time. But you know after that kind of stuff,
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: you know, I get home, it's like two o'clock in
• 47:38
  Speaker 4: the morning, you know, you wind down a little bit,
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: so I mean I would probably went to bed at
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: two thirty and I remember setting my alarm and it
• 47:44
  Speaker 4: pops off at you know, four to fifty. Moment I thought,
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: do they really have a chance in this game? Like
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: if I what if I just hit snooze for just
• 47:53
  Speaker 4: a second, And I thought, no, way, Like I'm not
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: doing that. But for a brief second, after like two
• 47:57
  Speaker 4: and a half hours of sleep, I was, and I'm
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: sure a lot of people on the West Coast are
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: thinking of themselves, this is gonna be worth it because everybody,
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: you know, everybody's saying, oh, they don't have a chance,
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: and this and that and all that. So you know,
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: like you said, to have that huge number and to
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: know that a lot of that audience was you know,
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: West Coast people, and you know, I started thinking about
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: this too, and you know this better than I do.
• 48:17
  Speaker 4: But the way that the NFL has expanded, you know,
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: Canada hasn't want to You'll get a kick out of this.
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: Canada obviously hasn't won a Cup since ninety three. We
• 48:25
  Speaker 4: just stole their sport. They've only had eight Canadian teams
• 48:28
  Speaker 4: even get to the finals to the Sanley Cup Finals
• 48:30
  Speaker 4: since nineteen ninety three, and all these people were calling
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: from Canada that night. It was so funny because we're
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: on the fan five ninety in Toronto, which is just
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: a blow torch up there, and so they're all calling yeah,
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: and I couldn't believe this because you and I know
• 48:43
  Speaker 4: how this works. When our team loses in America, everybody
• 48:46
  Speaker 4: bombards and calls and says it was the zebras, it
• 48:48
  Speaker 4: was the coach, it was the quarterback. It like we're
• 48:50
  Speaker 4: just blaming everybody, right. People are calling from Canada that
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: night in and they're like, hey, great game, eh, like
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: them like they're all congratulating us, like hey, we've got
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: a butt, and I go, we stole your sport, Like
• 49:02
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to stoke Canada right area, we stole your sport.
• 49:06
  Speaker 4: You have but won a Cups since ninety three, and
• 49:08
  Speaker 4: then we just took the gold for you. What do
• 49:10
  Speaker 4: you think of that? They're like, hey, congratulations, you played
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: a great game. May you know the we got a
• 49:15
  Speaker 4: lot of guys that are Canadians that are on the
• 49:17
  Speaker 4: American teams that win the Cups. So we're still we
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: still have the sport. Hey, congratulations, have a good night, Like.
• 49:22
  Speaker 5: That's what that was.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: Call after call after and you're stoky to piss.
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: Them off and everything else, and yeah, trying.
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to start a you know, a war here,
• 49:32
  Speaker 4: and it's like they're just not having it. And like
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: I said, it was the majority of the calls are
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: coming from Toronto, which is you know, the Maple Leaves
• 49:38
  Speaker 4: haven't won anything and forever.
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: Mathews. Yeah, they're all happy.
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, they're like Austin Matthews.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: Is our guy when he comes back. Yeah, I'm like having.
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: So different, Like could you imagine this in America, Like
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: let's say baseball, which is supposedly our sport, Like if
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: we lost in baseball and we'd be calling in just pissed,
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: we'd be blaming everybody. And they're like, no, we're just
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: giving you know, congratulations, And I'm like, but you have
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: it won a Cup since ninety three. We're like that,
• 50:06
  Speaker 4: We're cool.
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: That was good.
• 50:07
  Speaker 4: I'm like, oh my god, Canada is so different.
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: Well, well, here's the thing, Like you can try to
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: stoke the fire and be that guy all you want,
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: Like Orange Man pisses them off enough for the entire country.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: So it doesn't matter. It really, it really doesn't matter.
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: Whatever you say pales in comparison, right, So it's and
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: the same with and like, yeah, Austin Matthews in Toronto,
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: that's kind of cool.
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: The station, that's a great station.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: Uh, Austin Matthews are loving him today all you know,
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: even though he beat Canada, we love him. He's our guy.
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: They will turn on him starting. Yeah, when's the I'm
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: trying to see, like when's their first game tomorrow? Probably
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: like they'll turn on him tomorrow. Yeah, they play Tampa
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: in Tampa. They play Tampa and Tampa tomorrow. They're gonna
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: get boat raced and then Matthews will be you know,
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: getting killed again.
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: It's fine whatever, that's that works.
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: But you know, you know what's amazing is is hockey
• 50:54
  Speaker 4: in our country. Like Florida wins cups, Tampa wins cups.
• 50:58
  Speaker 4: You know, you guys, it's great to see guys being competitive.
• 51:01
  Speaker 4: It's like it's it's so weird, like what the hot
• 51:03
  Speaker 4: It's not it's not that you know, like obviously you
• 51:06
  Speaker 4: know Helli Buck's from by the way, Hellibuck I lived
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: in this is what's.
• 51:10
  Speaker 9: I lived in Commerce Township, Michigan where he's from.
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: He's probably a twelve year old kid. He probably lived
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: in my neighborhood. We had a frozen lake, like right
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: outside my house. He probably skating on it. Wow, I
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: even know. I didn't know that kid. Credit for the no,
• 51:22
  Speaker 4: I don't get any kind of credit, but I am
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: amazed at like to see you guys have really picked
• 51:27
  Speaker 4: up Hopey hockey quick La or Vegas as one cups,
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: you know, I mean in California, even though we're not
• 51:33
  Speaker 4: really into it, we can be if they win. Like,
• 51:35
  Speaker 4: isn't an amazing what the hot beds of hockey in
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: our country are? Who'd have thought like Florida, Yeah, would
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: have like Stanley Cup camping. It's weird, it's wild.
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: It's what winning helps.
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's like because Florida was drawing like two
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: thousand people a game, and all of a sudden they
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: got good and now the you know place is sold
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: out every night, and you know you're gonna start seeing
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: that with celebrating in San Jose, right, I mean, the
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: crowds have come back there, which is awesome.
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: People love them. Yeah, and he's and he's well, we
• 51:57
  Speaker 3: were debating.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: We were debating whether like we're looking at you know,
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: Curry's about ready to be done. Yeah, you know the Niners.
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: You know, the Niners are always gonna roull. But we're thinking,
• 52:05
  Speaker 4: you know, how much can this kid, you know, kind
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: of move up as good as he is, because look,
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: even if you're in a hotbed, or even if you're
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: in a place that you know it's behind, people are
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: behind teams in terms of popularity. As good as that
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: kid is, I mean it's he is really great in
• 52:19
  Speaker 4: a lot of buzz in the Bay Area.
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: Let's uh check in John lonng joining us. Let me
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: you might have mentioned this. I don't know who was
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: in a great bell last week, so you may be, oh.
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah it was.
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: That was nice man. He was so professional, such a
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: great conversation. You probably just a really smart guy.
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: Shut up.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: You probably touched it on this last week. But we've
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: heard from him now. He was on our station last Thursday.
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: I think it was the new offensive coordinator, Brian Fleury,
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: who sounds by the way, Brian Fleury, it sounds like, well,
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: hell crack can have a player named Kale Flury. That
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: sounds like a hockey name.
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: By the way, Flury is definitely a Theo flury.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, almost got a lot of flurries. Yeah, but
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: outside of the fact, he told Softy that he left
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: all his uh forty nine er gear and trash bags
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: to a homeless guy in the corner.
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: What else do you need to know about this guy?
• 53:06
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, it's interesting. He's been around since nineteen.
• 53:09
  Speaker 4: I've been covered the Niners since twenty eleven, and you know,
• 53:14
  Speaker 4: I hadn't really heard a ton about him, and then
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden, as the coaching carousels were going around,
• 53:19
  Speaker 4: he was creating a bunch of buzz.
• 53:21
  Speaker 9: And you know, Kyle Shanahan obviously.
• 53:24
  Speaker 4: Runs the offense, but he's got a group of guys
• 53:26
  Speaker 4: that he trusts. And so if if I'm gonna make
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: the Seahawks fans feel better, because I do think it's
• 53:31
  Speaker 4: a little strange that you're taking on a guy.
• 53:33
  Speaker 9: That hasn't called plays before.
• 53:35
  Speaker 4: But okay, I mean, Mike McDonald deserves the benefit of
• 53:37
  Speaker 4: the doubt. But I can just tell you this. They've
• 53:39
  Speaker 4: been talking to a lot of people after the fact,
• 53:42
  Speaker 4: even though he was a little bit quiet beforehand, he's very.
• 53:45
  Speaker 9: Well respected in the building.
• 53:47
  Speaker 4: Run game coordinator tight Ends coach George kill speaks very
• 53:52
  Speaker 4: highly of him, So you know, I don't know an
• 53:55
  Speaker 4: absolute ton about the guy, but he's certainly very well respected.
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: And Kyle shanm and flat out said that, oh yeah,
• 54:01
  Speaker 4: he's ready for this. So and look, Mike McDonald's not
• 54:04
  Speaker 4: going to go through the thing that he went through
• 54:05
  Speaker 4: with Ryan Grubb. It's not going to be a Ryan
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: Grubb situation. This guy's been around the Niners and knows
• 54:09
  Speaker 4: this offense. He's been around there since twenty nineteen. Now.
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: I know he was on the defensive side of the ball,
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: but I think there's an advantage to that because you
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: know what kind of you know, the defense may be thinking.
• 54:18
  Speaker 4: But look, I don't think they made a bad move here.
• 54:21
  Speaker 4: I know that people are kind of making it controversial
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: because he hasn't called plays, but he's an NFL head coach, right,
• 54:27
  Speaker 4: He's an NFL coach, you know what I mean. He's
• 54:29
  Speaker 4: not coming from the college dranks going gee, how do
• 54:31
  Speaker 4: we do this well?
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: And it's just in the I think the thing people
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: sometimes forget to about the college games. It's a different
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: game because the hash marks we are our guy. Hum
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: Millon brings that up all the time, Like that's a
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: different everything's different with the wider hash marks and how
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: the game's played. You know, I think McDonald said it
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: well too, like everyone's a first time play caller, right,
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: Like everyone's going to be a first time play caller.
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: And you know, Davis Webb just got promoted in Denver,
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: He's going to call play like Sean Payton's giving up
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: play calling duties that like.
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: That, like what like really? And crazy? Yeah?
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: And I mean again, Web hasn't been out of the
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: league as a player all that long, right, it hasn't been long,
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: So I mean that's the only way.
• 55:07
  Speaker 4: That could have kept him, right, I mean, he was
• 55:09
  Speaker 4: gonna have an opportunity to call plays, and he basically
• 55:11
  Speaker 4: went to Sean and said, look, either I'm colin plays
• 55:15
  Speaker 4: or I'm gone. So that must tell you how much
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: they respect him, right, But look, look, we cannot be
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: naive to the fact that is he going to be
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: Kubiak right out of the gate? Maybe not, but as
• 55:25
  Speaker 4: things progress, I think that he probably is. And look,
• 55:28
  Speaker 4: a lot of the things that Kyle does.
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: He wants to do.
• 55:32
  Speaker 4: Like I said, he's been there since twenty nineteen. He
• 55:34
  Speaker 4: knows the offense and if I'll say this, if Kyle
• 55:37
  Speaker 4: Shanahan trusts him, Kyle Shanahan trusts very few and I
• 55:41
  Speaker 4: know you know that. I mean, there's certain guys that
• 55:43
  Speaker 4: he'll allow to be close. And Kyle's never going to
• 55:45
  Speaker 4: give up play calling duties. The one thing I guess
• 55:47
  Speaker 4: I was a little bit surprised because you know, you
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: had Clint Kuback up there, they had Clay Kubiak. Clay
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: Kubiak called all the preseason games, and again I never
• 55:54
  Speaker 4: really heard Ryan Fleury's name in terms of getting involved
• 55:57
  Speaker 4: in that.
• 55:57
  Speaker 9: But as I said, if he's in.
• 55:59
  Speaker 4: All those me he's sitting around, it's not like he's
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: going to walk in and not have a clue what
• 56:03
  Speaker 4: Mike McDonald and the Seahawks want to do. They want
• 56:05
  Speaker 4: to run the football, yea, and things like that aren't.
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: Going to change, no, Well, which gets us to what
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: they do with Ken Walker, which also gets us to
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: what you guys are doing down what are the forty
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: nine ers doing? The Trent Williams story is interesting, how
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: thirty nine million for an aging left tackle and it
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: sounds like they're kind of far apart on what they
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: want to do, Like what's what's going to happen there?
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: What do you think's happening?
• 56:24
  Speaker 9: I think they're okay.
• 56:25
  Speaker 4: I think don't figure it out. What Trent Williams, the
• 56:27
  Speaker 4: same thing happened a couple of years ago when he
• 56:29
  Speaker 4: had more no more guaranteed money, and they came to
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: a conclusion.
• 56:32
  Speaker 9: But here's the other thing.
• 56:33
  Speaker 4: Just like many aging players, they don't want to go
• 56:35
  Speaker 4: to camp anyway. So I wouldn't think that this is
• 56:38
  Speaker 4: going to be resolved anytime soon. Trent owns gyms and
• 56:41
  Speaker 4: Oklahoma works out. His arms are gigantic, He's a gigantic man.
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: He's going to be fine and in shape. But they've
• 56:49
  Speaker 4: got a lot of issues. I mean, Trick Williams is
• 56:51
  Speaker 4: one of them. I don't think he's going to be
• 56:52
  Speaker 4: on doing any OTAs or anything like that because he
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: doesn't want to go to camp. But Brandon Ayuk is gone.
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: Jwan Jennings is as good as gone. I think they've
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: had it with his act. I mean he's you know,
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: he's tough and he does all these different things. But
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: I think Juwan Jennings has gone. Ricky pearsall can't stay healthy.
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: I don't know who they're gonna have it wide receiver. Obviously,
• 57:09
  Speaker 4: Deebo Samuel's long gone, So I don't know who the
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: forty nine ers receivers are going to be. I think,
• 57:15
  Speaker 4: like you said, I think their major problem. You look
• 57:17
  Speaker 4: at the Rams, look at you look at the Seahawks.
• 57:20
  Speaker 4: It's offensive defensive lines. It's dominating in the trenches. And
• 57:23
  Speaker 4: that's how the Niners won. If and when. You know,
• 57:26
  Speaker 4: this could be Trent Williams last year, or they could
• 57:28
  Speaker 4: take this contract and extend it.
• 57:29
  Speaker 5: Into two years.
• 57:30
  Speaker 4: Possibly he plays till he's forty years old. But regardless,
• 57:33
  Speaker 4: they don't have a good enough offensive line. They certainly
• 57:35
  Speaker 4: don't have a good enough defensive line with Bosa coming back.
• 57:37
  Speaker 4: So here's a team that, as much as they hung
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: in it last year despite the injuries, they need receivers.
• 57:43
  Speaker 4: They need trenches on both sides of the ball. They
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: have a lot of work to do. And George Kittle's
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: gonna come back when midway through next year. So I
• 57:52
  Speaker 4: know your good friend Tongues is but you know, they're
• 57:57
  Speaker 4: starting to get out on the wrong side, you know
• 57:59
  Speaker 4: what I mean, They're starting to kind of go on
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: the other side of the hill here. And last year
• 58:03
  Speaker 4: was all well and good because you know they did
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: it despite the injuries. But now you start looking in
• 58:07
  Speaker 4: the mirror and you think they're gonna be missing some
• 58:10
  Speaker 4: a lot of firepower this year and they have a
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: lot to replace and they don't have the cap space
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: like the like the Seahawks do.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's the key, right, is you know,
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: like the aging part of a roster which comes into
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: play and when an when the roster ages, father time
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: always wins. So how prepared are you for it? Well,
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: you can prepare all you want. The problem is is
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: that the NFL wants to win right now. Today, we're
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: not you know, they're not developing guys. There's no minor
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: league team, there's no you know, hockey has minor leagues,
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: Baseball has minor leagues. I wouldn't call the G League
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: a minor league because they.
• 58:44
  Speaker 3: Don't, like they just put guys there.
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: But you know, like you can't, I mean, honestly, like,
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: you're not developing guys down They're developing guys at the end.
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: Of the match, basically, right.
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: But but like that's the hard thing with the NFL
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: is is there's no way to develop players, and when
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: they age out, it's he'll be thirty eight.
• 58:59
  Speaker 3: When this starts.
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: Trent Williams like, man, yeah, that's that's a lot, you know.
• 59:04
  Speaker 4: And the other thing too about them that's really bad
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: is you know, and they remind me a little bit
• 59:08
  Speaker 4: of the Seahawks at the end, you know, with that
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: that whole group that they had at the end, where
• 59:12
  Speaker 4: you know, do they have one more.
• 59:13
  Speaker 5: Left in him?
• 59:14
  Speaker 4: It's just a division in the conference is so really tough.
• 59:16
  Speaker 4: And what happens is, you know, you're paying Trent Williams, who's,
• 59:19
  Speaker 4: like you said, aging out kittles getting a little bit older,
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: Like a lot of these guys are getting older, even
• 59:24
  Speaker 4: a guy like Nick Mosa, just because the injuries are
• 59:27
  Speaker 4: happening like they're happening to him. That's you know, that's
• 59:29
  Speaker 4: his second major knee injury. He's good, don't get me wrong,
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: but he's starting to kind of get on the wrong side.
• 59:35
  Speaker 3: You know, he's in his uh.
• 59:36
  Speaker 4: He's not quite thirty years old yet, but you know,
• 59:39
  Speaker 4: those injuries are going to start piling up and they've
• 59:41
  Speaker 4: just they've just got a lot to cover, you know.
• 59:43
  Speaker 4: Fred Warners are really sinders a big time rivalry with
• 59:49
  Speaker 4: harbon Old and then the guys, those little things down
• 59:55
  Speaker 4: just a little bit. It's kind of where the Niners are.
• 59:57
  Speaker 4: And then what happens is you're paying these guys so
• 59:58
  Speaker 4: much money. They had one over one hundred million dollars
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 4: in dead cap last year. They've still got more this year,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 4: and they've still got to they're trying to feel the
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 4: team and it's just it's really hard and they're kind
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 4: of trying on their last legs to get this thing going.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 4: It wouldn't shock me if they were contending next year,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 4: but it would be pretty surprised because they've got a
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 4: lot of holes to fill.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: Tell people about when they can hear you if they're
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: not in Toronto listening on the fan where they might
• 1:00:21

• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: fourth against Saint Louis.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 3: Yes, Saint Louis.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: Uh Ian report from the Canadian ski trip. We had
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: this text yesterday. The gentleman up there listens to us,
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: not sure about what London is talking about. They're still
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: not over it. That's why they're so pissy. They said
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: three on three over time is stupid. Too many minutes
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: on the ice thing. I try to tell them we
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: just had the better conner that didn't go well good,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't matter the sport. Like, We've got
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: through this in the NFL, right with how you decide
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: games in overtime in the NFL, same thing.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 3: Like, I think the.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: NFL's got it is better now, but it's not perfect.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: I think the NFL is like the NHL. It's such
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: a physical sport that you have to worry about the
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: safety of the athlete, right and so, because to me
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: the NFL, the best way in the National Football League
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: to determine a game would not be both teams get
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: a possession, if somebody scores it to all that stuff.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: And I do like the college way of doing it,
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: to be honest with you, but that's very shootout like.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 1: It's very shootout like, especially because when you get to
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: the third possession you got to go for two. That's
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent to shootout. That's shootout in hockey. I
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: think in the NFL, a ten minute overtime and whoever
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: has the lead after that wins, and if nobody does,
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: it's a tie. Doesn't matter how many possessions. Yeah, hell,
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: somebody could take a ten point lead, then you can
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: come back to score two touchdow.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 3: Yes in that short amount of time in ten minutes.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: And the thing is people will well, you know, it's
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: a lot set. The TV window is what dictates everything.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: So I think that's the one thing to always keep
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: in mind because the NFL would probably be okay from
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: a competitive standpoint. I wish we had Homegren still because
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: I I'd love to ask him this. From a competitive standpoint,
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: the NFL probably be fine with it. If you have
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: to coach. Would you rather do what they do?
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: Take your chances where one mistake and you're you're done.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: You know you don't have a second chance or what
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: have you if you go three and out, whatever the
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: case would be. Or would you rather just play ten
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: minutes If someone has an eight minute drive, well that
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: takes eight minutes off the clock. So be it, though,
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: but at least it's real football.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah. The problem with the NFL is they have a
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 3: TV window.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: Maybe TV window one is ten am Pacific to one
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: ten Pacific, or if you want to go eastern one
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: to four, let's just go ten to one, ten, one fifteen,
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: and then the second window for games in that to
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: whoever has a double header CBS and Fox alternate is
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: twenty five after one o'clock, and they're trying to fit
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: everything in a nice and tidy three hour and ten
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: minute window, unlike college football, which we've seen has also
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: decided to kind of scale things back, but not stopping
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: the clock on every first down until the final couple
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: of minutes. But they're trying to fit in a TV window.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: That's what hockey was doing in the Olympics, you know,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: and Edzo talked about it, and he talked about it
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: really well. They had because that's the marquee event, the
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: men's gold medal game in hockey. It's the last event
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: of the Olympics, right, and it's before the closing ceremonies,
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: and in the case of places like Milan, well, the
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: closing ceremonies are two hours away.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 3: Now I don't even know. Do you me watch the
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 3: closing ceremonies. I did not know.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: I don't even know if there's like one hundred percent
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: chance the US team wasn't even there. No, those guys
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: were gassed in the locker room. Are taking beers? Yeah, yeah,
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, so that's that's what they were doing.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I kind of like ded Zo's suggestion
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: because I actually have liked the three on three for
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: a while, even in like NHL season's regular season. I
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: like the kind of open ice feel to it. It's
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 2: it's not like a shootout. It's not a regular game either.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: Though some people have compared it to the Ghost Runner.
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: I think it's much superior than Ghost Runner.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: You know you're in tomorrow, right, Yeah, let's let's let's
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: have some fun with that tomorrow. Yeah, because I think
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of ways like overtimes are fun to
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: talk about.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's not a perfect one, to be honest,
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 3: I don't think there is.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: We can we'll do that tom yeah, yeah, yeah, content,
• 1:10:26
