- 0:05Speaker 1: every weekday morning from seven to ten on Altitude Sports
- 0:08Speaker 1: Radio ninety two five and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
- 0:18Speaker 2: He's stringing together some nice games here. He obviously did
- 0:22Speaker 2: the try game in Toronto now this one, so he's
- 0:26Speaker 2: getting back in the swing of things. He's been working
- 0:28Speaker 2: hard at it, trying to get him in the net
- 0:30Speaker 2: a little bit more here. Obviously we got a big
- 0:33Speaker 2: break coming up, but he's giving us a chance to
- 0:35Speaker 2: win every night right now.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Jarrey Bettenar talking about Mackenzie Blackwood did play great last night.
- 0:45Speaker 3: He deserved a better result. The rest of the team
- 0:47Speaker 3: not so sure.
- 0:47Speaker 4: He was really good and he has been really good,
- 0:50Speaker 4: and so is Scott. I mean, look, their goalies are good,
- 0:53Speaker 4: the team is good.
- 0:55Speaker 3: Team is good. That's clear.
- 0:58Speaker 4: I want to get through this a little bit. They're
- 1:00Speaker 4: in a bit of a rut, especially from what we
- 1:03Speaker 4: saw Brett through the first three months plus of this season. Okay, yep,
- 1:11Speaker 4: things started to go in a more difficult way when.
- 1:16Speaker 3: Uh, when Laniskag and Taves got hurt.
- 1:18Speaker 4: That's exactly right. That was one month ago. Take two
- 1:21Speaker 4: big factors out of the lineup. You get teams geeked
- 1:23Speaker 4: up for you, and things can be difficult because you're
- 1:26Speaker 4: playing desperate teams number one and number two, you're playing
- 1:30Speaker 4: good teams. The Detroit Red Wings have seventy two points
- 1:34Speaker 4: right now. It's good enough for third in the Eastern Conference.
- 1:37Speaker 4: That's a good hockey club. Yeah, and you embarrass them
- 1:39Speaker 4: in their building on Saturday. They defended. I'm gonna I
- 1:44Speaker 4: said this all game last night if anybody watched the
- 1:46Speaker 4: hockey game or listen, I'm sure Connor said it a
- 1:49Speaker 4: billion times too. They defended incredibly well last night, the
- 1:53Speaker 4: Detroit Red Wings. Yeah, and they were more than happy
- 1:56Speaker 4: once they got the one nothing lead thirty three seconds
- 1:58Speaker 4: into the dang game. Flip the puck out or dump
- 2:01Speaker 4: it in change for check like Gangbusters. Just muckety muckety
- 2:06Speaker 4: uckity uckity yuck. They did a great job because that's
- 2:10Speaker 4: a frustrating style to play against constantly, which is why
- 2:13Speaker 4: when you get the lead and you're the Colorado Avalanche
- 2:16Speaker 4: and you continue to press, teams have to open up
- 2:19Speaker 4: and they're not as good as you, and then you're
- 2:21Speaker 4: able to smoke them throw five on them, which is
- 2:24Speaker 4: what happened in Detroit on Saturday. Getting that lead early
- 2:29Speaker 4: in the game was incredibly beneficial to the Detroit Red Wings.
- 2:32Speaker 4: Somebody texted in a bit earlier, I don't know that
- 2:35Speaker 4: I can find it now, and they said, you're incapable
- 2:39Speaker 4: of criticizing Avalanche players or coaches as a show or
- 2:43Speaker 4: as a station. I don't know what as something, but
- 2:47Speaker 4: there was an implication there that's untrue. I guess my
- 2:53Speaker 4: question is, what would you like me to say. We
- 2:55Speaker 4: know the power play is awful. We understand that it
- 2:58Speaker 4: can't get untracked at all for a variety of reasons.
- 3:02Speaker 4: On any given night. It's not good the power play.
- 3:07Speaker 4: And again, the Abs are still the number one team
- 3:10Speaker 4: in the National Hockey League overall, right, Yeah, they still
- 3:14Speaker 4: have eighty one points. The Abs were tied as the
- 3:17Speaker 4: first team to ten points, then they were the first
- 3:20Speaker 4: team to twenty thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy eighty. Now
- 3:26Speaker 4: number one team to get to all those all those places. Yep.
- 3:31Speaker 4: But again, you've got teams right on your tail. I mean,
- 3:33Speaker 4: Minnesota and Dallas aren't going anywhere. They're the number two
- 3:36Speaker 4: and three teams in the National Hockey League. At this point,
- 3:38Speaker 4: Dallas has won five in a row. Yeah, wilu of
- 3:41Speaker 4: won four in a row. You're hitting a little bit
- 3:43Speaker 4: of your rut right now and things aren't going well.
- 3:48Speaker 4: Some guys on any given night don't look like themselves
- 3:52Speaker 4: played a lot of hockey. No excuse. But what do
- 3:55Speaker 4: you want me to say?
- 3:56Speaker 3: You?
- 3:56Speaker 4: When he got on Nathan McKinnon's asked when he's leading
- 3:59Speaker 4: the National Hockey League and goals scored, first player to
- 4:02Speaker 4: forty goals this season, Well, I what what?
- 4:04Speaker 3: What? What?
- 4:04Speaker 4: What do you want me to get at? This is
- 4:07Speaker 4: a rut and they are not playing well. They're three
- 4:09Speaker 4: five and two in their last ten. They need to
- 4:11Speaker 4: be better.
- 4:11Speaker 3: They know that. I am willing to forget this little
- 4:15Speaker 3: rut that they're in. I mean, I think they have
- 4:17Speaker 3: to win tomorrow. You can't go into this break with
- 4:23Speaker 3: another stinker that you put.
- 4:24Speaker 5: Up for it.
- 4:25Speaker 3: I completely agree, So gotta win tomorrow. But I'm willing
- 4:28Speaker 3: to forgive this if they just come back and play
- 4:30Speaker 3: well after that long stretch after or after the Olympic break.
- 4:35Speaker 3: If they come back and play well, then you're just like,
- 4:37Speaker 3: you know what, eighty two game season, you're gonna have
- 4:38Speaker 3: a bad stretch at some point.
- 4:40Speaker 4: This was a bad stretch. No, no big deal. Okay,
- 4:43Speaker 4: se was in telling the other day to play the Nuggets.
- 4:45Speaker 4: What kind of games did Jamal Murray and Tim Hardaway
- 4:47Speaker 4: Junior have They're bad?
- 4:49Speaker 3: Should I come in.
- 4:50Speaker 4: The morning say they stay sucked? No, because they've been
- 4:54Speaker 4: so good this it's well, yeah.
- 4:56Speaker 3: But if you if you have three straight weeks of
- 4:59Speaker 3: like substance play, it's fair to point it out. And
- 5:01Speaker 3: I think I.
- 5:02Speaker 6: Completely agree in that. But I don't know what you
- 5:05Speaker 6: want me to say.
- 5:06Speaker 3: Well, here's what I'll tell you, Like, here's one guy.
- 5:08Speaker 3: You want me to call somebody out, I'll call somebody out.
- 5:10Speaker 3: When you're struggling like this, you need your best players
- 5:12Speaker 3: to play at their best. When you have injuries, you
- 5:16Speaker 3: need your best players to step up. I don't think
- 5:19Speaker 3: mccr's done it. I think mccar's got to be better.
- 5:22Speaker 3: Mccar is not even putting the puck on net, which
- 5:25Speaker 3: is a big problem. He has the puck a lot,
- 5:27Speaker 3: He takes a ton of shots. It's what you want
- 5:29Speaker 3: him to do. But he's got to stop being so cute.
- 5:32Speaker 3: See with where he wants to It feels like he's
- 5:35Speaker 3: aiming for the perfect spot. That's like bar down, top shelf,
- 5:39Speaker 3: hit a corner, hit a post, it in and it's
- 5:42Speaker 3: like just put the puck on net and try and
- 5:43Speaker 3: get a rebound out of it. I think he's being
- 5:46Speaker 3: way too cute with it. That's not I think like
- 5:49Speaker 3: mccar has been far too unnoticeable lately during this stretch, I've.
- 5:53Speaker 4: Noticed hope plays from guys, plenty of hope plays, plenty
- 5:56Speaker 4: of that has a one in fifty chance of working.
- 6:00Speaker 4: But you tried anyway because you're frustrated, you know what
- 6:03Speaker 4: I mean? You could see the frustration level coming out
- 6:06Speaker 4: at times for sure.
- 6:08Speaker 3: Well, who was it? Was it choot you last night
- 6:11Speaker 3: that busted his stick over the post on the empty
- 6:13Speaker 3: netter yep? And what did he get a little U
- 6:16Speaker 3: shin tap after that?
- 6:18Speaker 4: Because they didn't want him on, They didn't want him
- 6:19Speaker 4: around the bench or the ice. I mean a thirteen
- 6:21Speaker 4: seconds or whatever it was left in the game, thirty
- 6:23Speaker 4: seconds left, they're like, go.
- 6:25Speaker 3: To the room, be done right?
- 6:27Speaker 6: What's because Dylan? You saw what Dylan Larkin did?
- 6:29Speaker 5: Right?
- 6:31Speaker 3: Punk?
- 6:33Speaker 5: Okay, kidd?
- 6:34Speaker 3: So how old is Larkin? I was twenty?
- 6:37Speaker 4: I want to see twenty seven twenty eight somewhere around.
- 6:39Speaker 3: The Grand Rapids talking about the Wings. I think he
- 6:42Speaker 3: was like eighteen or nineteen when he first joined the league.
- 6:45Speaker 3: I think I was talking abou him. Then let me
- 6:47Speaker 3: take a little for a minute.
- 6:48Speaker 5: Yeah, he was a.
- 6:49Speaker 4: Fifteenth overall pit he's always twenty nine now, so he's
- 6:52Speaker 4: been around for a long time. Still an awesome skater.
- 6:54Speaker 4: Will be on Team USA. So I'm guessing you're going
- 6:56Speaker 4: to be rooting for him in about a week.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Well yeah, o us, Yeah, man. Ten years ago, I
- 7:02Speaker 3: was in UH, I was in Grand Rapids, so he
- 7:04Speaker 3: was nineteen and he made his dab. Good for you.
- 7:07Speaker 3: I'm just saying, it's been a long I don't know
- 7:12Speaker 3: why you're doing that. I'm not doing anything. Let me
- 7:14Speaker 3: tell you what happened.
- 7:15Speaker 6: So Raymond puts it in empty.
- 7:18Speaker 5: You know what?
- 7:18Speaker 3: That reminds me of a song. I'm just kidding. Involve
- 7:23Speaker 3: your mom. No, it's your mom.
- 7:26Speaker 4: My mom's dead. So anyway, Raymond Raymond, it's a pretty
- 7:32Speaker 4: depressing song.
- 7:33Speaker 5: Bro.
- 7:34Speaker 4: Raymond puts it in the empty net. Val breaks his
- 7:36Speaker 4: stick across the post and Raymond kind of goes the
- 7:39Speaker 4: you know, the blade comes flying over. Momah, Larkin, on
- 7:43Speaker 4: his way to congratulate Raymond, gives a stick tap to
- 7:45Speaker 4: the shins of Natushkin. Yeah, that's a dangerous gamer.
- 7:50Speaker 6: That's still whole movement.
- 7:52Speaker 3: That's a dangerous that's a's.
- 7:54Speaker 6: A that's a uh hey, that's I mean, that's that's gamesmanship,
- 7:59Speaker 6: is what that is.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Anyway.
- 8:01Speaker 6: So Fowle's like, oh, I leave in the eye, he
- 8:04Speaker 6: comes over.
- 8:05Speaker 4: I've never Valdachuskin has never fought, but boy is he
- 8:09Speaker 4: intimidating looking dude on the ice.
- 8:11Speaker 5: Yes he is.
- 8:11Speaker 6: And he's big, and he's.
- 8:12Speaker 3: Strong, intimidating, he's intimidating just in general as dude.
- 8:16Speaker 4: Right, had a great conversation with you yesterday morning.
- 8:19Speaker 3: By the way, anyway, the accent that that accent's tough.
- 8:23Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a dude anyway.
- 8:26Speaker 6: So that that's what went on there, right, I mean,
- 8:29Speaker 6: the frustration is there.
- 8:31Speaker 3: The game that they.
- 8:31Speaker 4: Played against last night, I'm gonna give it, like coach
- 8:35Speaker 4: Bednar said, I'm gonna give the Detroit Red Wings and
- 8:37Speaker 4: Todd McLachlan all kinds of credits because they defended incredibly well,
- 8:43Speaker 4: and they busted their humps incredibly well.
- 8:46Speaker 3: They were a.
- 8:47Speaker 4: Committed connected group last night. In fact, if you go
- 8:49Speaker 4: back and read the comments of Gibson, see if I
- 8:53Speaker 4: can find it. He had something to say about that game.
- 8:57Speaker 4: He said, it's as good of a dang it.
- 9:02Speaker 3: Did he say it just like that? No, he's saying
- 9:05Speaker 3: it's as good as he.
- 9:08Speaker 4: Said, top to bottom, total team effort, everybody committed to
- 9:13Speaker 4: playing d getting pucks deep four check. It's probably the
- 9:17Speaker 4: most complete game I've been a part of this year.
- 9:20Speaker 3: Sure they played great. Yeah, they did the ass when they.
- 9:24Speaker 4: Played great, play better than other teams that played completely great.
- 9:27Speaker 4: And you want to you take that team in a
- 9:28Speaker 4: seven game series, what's gonna happen.
- 9:31Speaker 3: They might get one of those, but they'll get run
- 9:33Speaker 3: in five games.
- 9:34Speaker 6: There you go.
- 9:34Speaker 4: That's what you I think. That's what fans have to
- 9:37Speaker 4: keep in mind right now. And again I'm not I'm
- 9:40Speaker 4: not excusing anything. The power play overall, when you factor
- 9:44Speaker 4: in the nine shorthanded goals given up.
- 9:49Speaker 3: Yeah, so then you go to net net.
- 9:52Speaker 4: Power play, it's right now, Brett hovering just above ten percent.
- 9:58Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's his That's as.
- 10:00Speaker 4: Difficult as we've seen in the league in a long
- 10:04Speaker 4: long time.
- 10:05Speaker 3: By the way, A lot of Detroit people there last night.
- 10:08Speaker 4: A lot always are there, always are. There were a
- 10:11Speaker 4: lot of As people in Detroit, but there were more
- 10:13Speaker 4: Red Wings people here than the were last night than
- 10:15Speaker 4: the other way round.
- 10:16Speaker 3: Das Dmak asked Bednar question about that, What if any.
- 10:20Speaker 7: Differences to make when there's such an overwhelming amount of
- 10:23Speaker 7: fans from the other team here, Does that.
- 10:25Speaker 8: Have any impact on energy or anything else.
- 10:27Speaker 2: In the game. No, I don't think so. No, Patrick, night,
- 10:33Speaker 2: I thought, I mean, I thought the crowd, you're hearing
- 10:35Speaker 2: noise right, So it was an energetic building right from
- 10:38Speaker 2: the start. I thought tonight, and I'm just hoping that
- 10:40Speaker 2: would help our group. And like, I think our guys
- 10:43Speaker 2: played hard tonight, no question. I give Detroit all the
- 10:46Speaker 2: credit there. Like we weren't at our best, but I
- 10:51Speaker 2: think they competed hard, they defended hard. We made some
- 10:53Speaker 2: mistakes here and there, and we had to grind for
- 10:56Speaker 2: our chances tonight big time.
- 10:58Speaker 3: Yeah. There a couple hit posts.
- 11:01Speaker 4: There were a couple of opportunities on rebounds that that
- 11:06Speaker 4: you just couldn't get a hold of. I made a
- 11:08Speaker 4: b analogy last night, Gibson fighting that puck with his
- 11:13Speaker 4: catching glove time that I moved my.
- 11:15Speaker 3: Bees, and I had two bees chase me.
- 11:17Speaker 6: For like, honestly, two hundred yards they chased.
- 11:20Speaker 3: You were bored a little bit. You're bored fifty nine
- 11:24Speaker 3: minutes and no goals will do that to a man
- 11:27Speaker 3: who wants to do that.
- 11:28Speaker 4: Hockey Nobody who wants to watch a team flip the
- 11:32Speaker 4: puck out of their own zone to center rice eighty
- 11:35Speaker 4: seven times in a row.
- 11:36Speaker 6: Not me, But you know what it's like.
- 11:39Speaker 4: It's like, it's like, you get the you get the football.
- 11:43Speaker 4: He just punt it down to the five. Just keep
- 11:46Speaker 4: constantly punting it down to the five yard line.
- 11:48Speaker 3: Well that sounds a lot like what the Broncos did
- 11:50Speaker 3: at points this year with their offense.
- 11:51Speaker 6: Well was it boring as hell?
- 11:53Speaker 3: Yeah, we get back to that in just a second.
- 11:55Speaker 3: We had another keyword for you, a chance to get
- 11:57Speaker 3: in the building at Ball Arena for the game tomorrow,
- 12:00Speaker 3: the final game before the long Olympic break against the Sharks.
- 12:06Speaker 3: So one more keyword for you coming up, or I
- 12:08Speaker 3: guess uh this hour's keyword we have one more than
- 12:11Speaker 3: nine o'clock hour. It's not that it is not Hamley.
- 12:16Speaker 4: The Hamson isn't hammersh.
- 12:19Speaker 3: Yeah, here we're shit. Uh looks like Vic set up.

- 12:30Speaker 3: in Inglewood or online at groovetoyota dot com. So, uh,
- 12:35Speaker 3: look to connect with Vick here when we come back,
- 12:36Speaker 3: along with I want to get back to this Davis
- 12:38Speaker 3: web thing play calling. Are you convinced that the Broncos
- 12:42Speaker 3: ils on offense were more directed towards the play calling
- 12:46Speaker 3: aspect of things? Or is it the talent aspect of things?
- 12:51Speaker 3: We'll get to that next. All right, So it's another
- 12:53Speaker 3: ASPS Ticket Tuesday, keywords on the twenties of every hour
- 12:57Speaker 3: each show, and it's to get you a pair of

- 13:31Speaker 5: It be hammer.
- 13:34Speaker 3: Sha yeah, shay.
- 13:37Speaker 5: Hey.
- 13:37Speaker 4: By the way, that block uh that block shirt on
- 13:40Speaker 4: you looks really good, buddy.
- 13:42Speaker 3: I actually thought the same thing. You look good.
- 13:44Speaker 5: Are you talking to me?
- 13:45Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm I'm actually gonna be. Your hair is looking
- 13:48Speaker 4: flat and it looks like too much conditioner, but that
- 13:51Speaker 4: shirt looks actually, it looks really good on you. Man.
- 13:53Speaker 7: It's just odd to hear a compliment from you in
- 13:56Speaker 7: the morning. I don't know how to react to that,
- 13:58Speaker 7: to be honest with you. We're here at a media row,
- 14:01Speaker 7: radio row, which has turned into this colossal I don't
- 14:04Speaker 7: know how to explain it. I've been this is probably
- 14:07Speaker 7: my twentieth Super Bowl, and every year this thing grows
- 14:12Speaker 7: another arm what used to have, Like, you know, this
- 14:15Speaker 7: is our banner behind us. Yeah, I'm having banner envy
- 14:19Speaker 7: here because we might have the smallest banner in this joint.
- 14:22Speaker 7: Some of these banners are the size of buildings that
- 14:24Speaker 7: these radio stations prop out for this thing and TV
- 14:27Speaker 7: stations and content.
- 14:29Speaker 4: What's that going to do for people? I mean, like, no,
- 14:31Speaker 4: I know, I know some guy from you know, some
- 14:32Speaker 4: guy from Orlando sees that you have a big banner.
- 14:35Speaker 6: I mean, it doesn't mean crap.
- 14:37Speaker 5: What the point I'm trying to get to is.
- 14:38Speaker 7: You know, when I first started coming to the Super Bowls,
- 14:42Speaker 7: you'd have maybe forty to fifty different organizations, radio.
- 14:47Speaker 5: Stations and content creators.
- 14:50Speaker 7: Now there has to be what do you think, Jesse,
- 14:51Speaker 7: least two hundred, two hundred and fifty from all over
- 14:54Speaker 7: the globe, not just in the United States, all over
- 14:57Speaker 7: the globe. Right now, we're at a place that Wichita
- 14:59Speaker 7: station is right near US, across from here to Seattle stations,
- 15:03Speaker 7: they're everywhere. I mean, the Super Bowl is the center
- 15:07Speaker 7: of the sports universe this week, and this is where
- 15:09Speaker 7: everybody goes to gather.
- 15:11Speaker 5: It's like a retreat more than anything.
- 15:14Speaker 3: A lot of podcasters probably taking up some booths.
- 15:16Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, yeah, a lot of people you've never heard of, right,
- 15:19Speaker 7: you know, just sort of showing up and doing their
- 15:22Speaker 7: thing because you know how it is. Later in the week,
- 15:25Speaker 7: there's gonna be celebrity after celebrity athlete after athlete. Later
- 15:29Speaker 7: this afternoon, the Pro Bowl is taking place in the
- 15:33Speaker 7: same area. It's in the convention center on the other side,
- 15:38Speaker 7: this big old convention center here in downtown San Francisco.
- 15:40Speaker 7: So we've come to the point now where a Pro
- 15:43Speaker 7: Bowl was played in a convention center, because of course
- 15:45Speaker 7: it's a flag football game.
- 15:48Speaker 3: If somebody gets hurt in that convention center that they're
- 15:51Speaker 3: gonna go nuclear. Can you imagine a pop d acl
- 15:55Speaker 3: from somebody because they're playing indoors.
- 15:57Speaker 5: I could only imagine VIC.
- 16:00Speaker 3: At Radio Road by the way in San Francisco all
- 16:02Speaker 3: week this week thanks to Colorado off Road Colorado grown,
- 16:05Speaker 3: Colorado owned Colorado off off Road online at Seal off
- 16:09Speaker 3: Road dot com. So what I wanted to get to
- 16:12Speaker 3: again and Vic, I want to get your thoughts.
- 16:14Speaker 5: On this, catch me up please.
- 16:16Speaker 3: So Davis Webb promoted Doc. That is the unsurprising news.
- 16:20Speaker 3: We all kind of saw that once his name was
- 16:22Speaker 3: removed from consideration with the Raiders, you had the vacant
- 16:24Speaker 3: oc job. It just felt like easy one to one
- 16:27Speaker 3: promote him and be done with it. The interesting thing
- 16:30Speaker 3: is what happens moving forward? Does he get the play
- 16:34Speaker 3: calling duties, does a multitude of other things happen? And
- 16:37Speaker 3: here's the question I threw out there, and I wonder
- 16:39Speaker 3: what you think of this has had two strop polls. Today,
- 16:42Speaker 3: Rice said do you want Sean Payton calling the plays
- 16:44Speaker 3: next year? And like the text line in both cases
- 16:48Speaker 3: emphatically said no that they don't. Okay, And here's my curiosity.
- 16:54Speaker 3: Do you think things would have looked different offensively and
- 16:57Speaker 3: better if Davis Webb, who's never called plays, called the plays.
- 17:01Speaker 7: I don't know the answer to that. One time we
- 17:03Speaker 7: actually got some feedback on this was the preseason. He
- 17:06Speaker 7: called the plays during one of the preseason games. They
- 17:09Speaker 7: said as much. They had him called for one game
- 17:11Speaker 7: and they had Joe Lombardi call for the other. So
- 17:14Speaker 7: in the game in which he called the plays, and
- 17:16Speaker 7: and I can't remember which of the preseasons think it
- 17:18Speaker 7: was the last one.
- 17:19Speaker 4: Wasn't I think it was Arizona? Was Arizona?
- 17:21Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, but you know, I don't know until he
- 17:24Speaker 5: does it. Is there going to be a learning curve?
- 17:26Speaker 5: Of course there is.
- 17:27Speaker 3: Jared Stilla looks great in the preseason.
- 17:29Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there will be a learning curve.
- 17:31Speaker 7: It is the preseason so to say that automatically the
- 17:35Speaker 7: Broncos offense is going to look better, Okay, we can
- 17:38Speaker 7: assume that we can. Did Sean Payton's play calling get stale?
- 17:44Speaker 5: Is it archaic? I don't know. I know there are
- 17:47Speaker 5: times where grumbling that they need to run the ball more.
- 17:50Speaker 5: I know there are times when we asked for different
- 17:51Speaker 5: type of plays instead of screens. I know that.
- 17:53Speaker 7: But he's also called plays for what two decades, so
- 17:57Speaker 7: he's got that experience, you know. I don't know the answer, man,
- 17:59Speaker 7: I don't know if it's if it's gonna be better.
- 18:01Speaker 7: It's a different look, that's about all we know. It's
- 18:04Speaker 7: a different person making the calls.
- 18:06Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, Vic, And again I don't know either.
- 18:09Speaker 4: I just don't feel like unless it's mandated from somebody
- 18:13Speaker 4: above Sean Payton, and there ain't much above Sean Payton
- 18:18Speaker 4: in this organization. Yeah, it reminds me POMPEII than POMPEII, right,
- 18:22Speaker 4: and he got the dead people to the right, but
- 18:24Speaker 4: they found someone clutching their their.
- 18:26Speaker 6: Gold right and there there, and then they get buried
- 18:29Speaker 6: by the ash.
- 18:30Speaker 4: But like Sean Payton, I think he's gonna he's going
- 18:32Speaker 4: to be buried with his play sheet in his hand. Yeah.
- 18:35Speaker 4: Like it's like It's like, how for a guy who's
- 18:38Speaker 4: always done it and takes an immense amount.
- 18:40Speaker 6: Of pride in it, how do you pry it out
- 18:43Speaker 6: of his out of his hands?
- 18:45Speaker 4: I don't. I just don't see it happening, Vic. And
- 18:47Speaker 4: if it's not, then why is Davis Webb taking the job?
- 18:50Speaker 4: Is just familiarity, comfortability, I mean, all those are big factors,
- 18:53Speaker 4: don't get me wrong. But he could be calling place
- 18:55Speaker 4: somewhere else if he wanted to.
- 18:57Speaker 5: He might have some leverage here.
- 18:58Speaker 7: He may have had some opportunit these elsewhere, and the
- 19:01Speaker 7: leverage would have been, Okay, I'll stay here, I'll stick around.
- 19:04Speaker 7: I will be that go between between you and bow,
- 19:07Speaker 7: which is necessary.
- 19:08Speaker 3: I think it is.
- 19:09Speaker 7: Some of the great quarterbacks had that go between. Mike
- 19:11Speaker 7: Chanahan was once that go between. Gary Kubiak was once
- 19:14Speaker 7: that go between. Some of the greats have played that role.
- 19:18Speaker 7: So he may have said that listen, I'll stay, but
- 19:21Speaker 7: you gotta give me a little more responsibility.
- 19:25Speaker 5: Now. That can come in many different ways. Fellas. At
- 19:27Speaker 5: the end of the day, let me ask you this.
- 19:29Speaker 7: Let's say that Davis Webb is the play caller. At
- 19:32Speaker 7: the end of the day, the head coach has the
- 19:34Speaker 7: final say on the play. So who's the real play
- 19:36Speaker 7: caller here?
- 19:36Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, here's the thought that I had. I'm
- 19:41Speaker 3: not even averse to the idea of him calling plays. Now,
- 19:45Speaker 3: I do have something I go back to a lot
- 19:47Speaker 3: because I think it matters when your teams are successful.
- 19:49Speaker 3: This supplies the Avs, the Nuggets, and now the Broncos.
- 19:52Speaker 3: It's a lot easier to get worse than it is
- 19:54Speaker 3: to get better. And being fourteen and three and making
- 19:57Speaker 3: the AFC Championship Game, there's a lot more room to
- 19:59Speaker 3: drop the there is to rise. Now, with that being said,
- 20:03Speaker 3: the easiest thing for me, how do you improve the offense?
- 20:08Speaker 3: Get players? Like, here's the thing. Courtland Sutton, who I
- 20:13Speaker 3: respect and I think he's a good wide receiver, is
- 20:16Speaker 3: not a great number one wide receiver. He's just not.
- 20:19Speaker 3: He's not Justin Jefferson, he's not Pookin Nakoo, he's not
- 20:22Speaker 3: js N, he's not Amen Ross Saint Brown, he's not
- 20:25Speaker 3: any of the guys that you consider top ten in
- 20:27Speaker 3: the league, Jackson Smith. And part of that is, like,
- 20:30Speaker 3: here's how I put it, here's how you know if
- 20:33Speaker 3: your player's good. If the defense games plans the entire
- 20:37Speaker 3: week to stop that particular guy, whether it's running back
- 20:40Speaker 3: or wide receiver, does the guy still produce or not?
- 20:43Speaker 3: Because it feels to me like it's easy to get
- 20:45Speaker 3: Courtland Sutton taken out of a game, Like you don't
- 20:49Speaker 3: think that the game plan every week is to stop
- 20:52Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson and Pookin Nakula And now more times are
- 20:54Speaker 3: they wide open? That's not just scheme, Okay, it's not.
- 20:59Speaker 3: It's that that guy he's really really good. He's just
- 21:02Speaker 3: really good and you can't stop him. I'll give you
- 21:03Speaker 3: a quick example of that.
- 21:05Speaker 4: Hey, do they we want to stop Jamar Chase and
- 21:08Speaker 4: t Higgins in the passing game with Joe Burrow when
- 21:11Speaker 4: he's out there?
- 21:12Speaker 6: Good luck? Oh and oh, by the way, we did
- 21:14Speaker 6: a good job.
- 21:15Speaker 4: Now they threw, they threw for four hundred on us
- 21:17Speaker 4: and three touches, But we did a pretty.
- 21:19Speaker 6: Good job, by the way.
- 21:20Speaker 3: Asking Bengals fan if they think Zach Taylor's a genius
- 21:24Speaker 3: and see what response you get, because they won't say that,
- 21:27Speaker 3: they'll say Jamar Chase is too good to be covered.
- 21:30Speaker 3: Like here's a question and just quickly they I'll ask
- 21:32Speaker 3: you how many plays this year do you remember Courtland
- 21:36Speaker 3: Sutton being wide open oncause he's really good at contested catches,
- 21:40Speaker 3: but wide open?
- 21:41Speaker 7: He was wide open in the AFC Championship game on
- 21:44Speaker 7: the only touchdown of the game.
- 21:45Speaker 4: That is he was.
- 21:49Speaker 7: You know, there were some other opportunities in different games.
- 21:52Speaker 7: I'd have to go back and watch games, but most.
- 21:54Speaker 3: Most of the time he's making a contested catch though,
- 21:56Speaker 3: which he's good at. But that means you aren't open open.
- 22:00Speaker 5: Sure, So is that scheme.
- 22:02Speaker 3: I think it's a talent thing. I just think you
- 22:04Speaker 3: don't have the guys that are just it doesn't matter
- 22:07Speaker 3: what you think, you're going to separation or you just
- 22:09Speaker 3: can't yes separation.
- 22:11Speaker 7: Well, you know, I think separation is easier to come by,
- 22:14Speaker 7: Brett when you have a run game that the opposing
- 22:17Speaker 7: secondary has to respect. Sure, when you have safeties that
- 22:20Speaker 7: have to come up for the run game, it's a
- 22:23Speaker 7: lot tougher to cover. And frankly, I think it all
- 22:26Speaker 7: starts there. I don't care what anybody says about the
- 22:28Speaker 7: Broncos offense. I think the downfall of the Broncos offense
- 22:32Speaker 7: was obviously losing bon Nicks and other than that, when
- 22:36Speaker 7: you cannot establish a run game, when you have to
- 22:39Speaker 7: go backwards on fourth and one inside the twenty yard
- 22:42Speaker 7: line to attempt to play because you don't trust your
- 22:45Speaker 7: run game. Enough said, that's it. It's all I need
- 22:49Speaker 7: to know. It's all I need to hear. They don't
- 22:51Speaker 7: trust it, they haven't trusted it. And I know what
- 22:54Speaker 7: you're going to say, Well, they did when JK. Dobbins
- 22:56Speaker 7: was in there. Well, I mean, if you're going to
- 22:58Speaker 7: trust your run game, you're going to trust it with
- 22:59Speaker 7: different running backs.
- 23:01Speaker 5: You don't trust it with two or three running backs,
- 23:03Speaker 5: not just one.
- 23:04Speaker 7: There's something fundamentally wrong with the run game. And I
- 23:07Speaker 7: think it starts up front.
- 23:08Speaker 3: Well there's again. You look at these teams, the ones
- 23:12Speaker 3: that are really really good offensively. If for the Seahawks,
- 23:17Speaker 3: if js n isn't getting the football, then Kenneth Walker's
- 23:19Speaker 3: running it. If he's not running it, then Charbonay was
- 23:21Speaker 3: running it. If you're the Rams, if you don't get
- 23:23Speaker 3: the ball at the puka, you get the ball to
- 23:24Speaker 3: Devonte Adams, you don't get it to him Williams Corum,
- 23:28Speaker 3: you get it to like a whole bunch of different guys. Yeah,
- 23:30Speaker 3: I don't know if they have that on this team.
- 23:32Speaker 3: And so the easiest thing is how do you make
- 23:35Speaker 3: the offense better by getting better players? I don't know
- 23:37Speaker 3: how much this changes, is if Davis Webb is calling plays.
- 23:40Speaker 7: Listen, if I get a chance today, and I vow
- 23:44Speaker 7: to ask this question because I wanted to ask it yesterday.
- 23:46Speaker 7: We did not get any here in time, and I'm
- 23:48Speaker 7: hoping to intercept a couple of the Broncos Pro bowlers.
- 23:51Speaker 7: There's six of them here, okay, and the Pro Bowl
- 23:54Speaker 7: is at five o'clock and I don't know if we
- 23:56Speaker 7: can get to them, but if we do, I promise
- 23:58Speaker 7: you I will go up to Garrett Balls and I'll
- 24:00Speaker 7: ask him this question because he's the one that said
- 24:02Speaker 7: we have the best offensive line in football. And I
- 24:05Speaker 7: don't disagree from just the marks and the stats and
- 24:09Speaker 7: all that stuff that comes out, but I'm going to
- 24:11Speaker 7: ask him, if you have the best offensive line in football,
- 24:14Speaker 7: why can't you run the football consistently? Yeah, And that's
- 24:18Speaker 7: just I'm not trying to offend him. It's not meant
- 24:20Speaker 7: to be a snarky question. But maybe he has the answer.
- 24:25Speaker 7: What do you think his answer would be.
- 24:27Speaker 3: Well, he taught in that same clip where he said
- 24:29Speaker 3: we have the best offensive line in football. Because he
- 24:31Speaker 3: said that, what do you say, at the end of it,
- 24:33Speaker 3: all we need is a couple more playmakers in here.
- 24:35Speaker 7: He said that too, So without pointing to the running
- 24:39Speaker 7: back position, he's basically saying we don't have the necessary
- 24:42Speaker 7: backs to get it done.
- 24:44Speaker 5: That's what he said.
- 24:45Speaker 3: He used the word we just need a couple more playmakers. Yeah,
- 24:49Speaker 3: so I think that's part of it. Look, that's a
- 24:51Speaker 3: that's a tricky like high wire act.
- 24:54Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly.
- 24:56Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 24:57Speaker 5: So I don't trying to find a god damn joker.
- 24:59Speaker 3: I don't know what he would say to you in
- 25:01Speaker 3: a public setting that would be palatable for both, like
- 25:05Speaker 3: what he actually thinks in what is not going to
- 25:08Speaker 3: offend teammates. But I guess I would I would ward
- 25:11Speaker 3: it this way, Vic, what do you need to do
- 25:15Speaker 3: to make it more effective?
- 25:18Speaker 5: I wouldn't.
- 25:19Speaker 4: I wouldn't say why can't you guys run block when
- 25:21Speaker 4: you pass block? So well you know that, well you
- 25:24Speaker 4: know what I mean?
- 25:24Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, maybe maybe they do need that guy.
- 25:28Speaker 7: Speaking of that guy, so Jesse and I get to
- 25:30Speaker 7: the airport last night and we're waiting for our uber.
- 25:33Speaker 4: Hey, I saw that picture.
- 25:35Speaker 7: Yeah, so I got to give you the backstory on
- 25:36Speaker 7: this because, uh, sort of awkward situation and a guy
- 25:41Speaker 7: is there with his wife.
- 25:42Speaker 5: I'm there with Jesse. He's my travel wife at the radio.
- 25:47Speaker 6: He's Jesse's an excellent travel wise.
- 25:50Speaker 7: Yeah, Jesse, how many events have we covered? How many
- 25:52Speaker 7: Hall of Fames and Super Bowls? It's a lot in
- 25:54Speaker 7: the home run.
- 25:55Speaker 5: Yeah, you are my.
- 25:56Speaker 7: Wife on the road, even my even my wife said, hey,
- 25:58Speaker 7: is Jesse your wife with you? I said, at my
- 26:00Speaker 7: wife's here. So we're sitting there waiting for our uber,
- 26:03Speaker 7: and I look over my shoulder.
- 26:04Speaker 5: I said, God, that guy looks familiar.
- 26:06Speaker 7: So I look at him, and you know, I just
- 26:09Speaker 7: blurted out. I didn't even have I go, hey you
- 26:12Speaker 7: Jim Plunket. His wife starts laughing, so I'm like, maybe
- 26:19Speaker 7: it is Jim Plunkett. I thought it looked just like you,
- 26:21Speaker 7: Jim Plunket. No, no, I'm not Jim Plunkett.
- 26:24Speaker 5: I go, who are you? And then he laughed again,
- 26:29Speaker 5: I'm John Riggins And so then yeah, wait, I saw.
- 26:34Speaker 4: The picture with John Riggins. I thought, you said, it
- 26:37Speaker 4: looks like it's still Bowl over linebackers in the ads
- 26:39Speaker 4: of seventy one or whatever it.
- 26:41Speaker 5: Is, seventy six, seventy.
- 26:42Speaker 4: Six, And I thought to myself, well, Vic knew exactly
- 26:46Speaker 4: who it was right away. He's got a pretty distinctive look. Vic.
- 26:48Speaker 7: I know, I know, but for some reason I had
- 26:51Speaker 7: plunk it in my brain to plunk it out of
- 26:53Speaker 7: your tail. Jim, plunk it by my brain and it's
- 26:56Speaker 7: John Riggins, knowing full well it was one of the two.
- 27:00Speaker 7: So if I was gonna air, he was gonna air
- 27:02Speaker 7: on the side of plunk it because it's in the
- 27:04Speaker 7: Bay Area anyway, got to talking. Could not have been
- 27:07Speaker 7: a nicer guy, such a good dude, you know, Jim.
- 27:09Speaker 7: John Riggans went into acting after football. He's like a
- 27:12Speaker 7: he's an actor, so he does he's a kid on
- 27:15Speaker 7: the side. Yeah, yeah, like he still does like community
- 27:18Speaker 7: plays and you're kidder.
- 27:20Speaker 5: And all that stuff. Yeah, that's what he does.
- 27:21Speaker 3: He looked what he was a run.
- 27:23Speaker 4: I mean, he looks like the most rugged son of
- 27:26Speaker 4: a gun on the planet, does he not? Well, I'm guy,
- 27:28Speaker 4: I mean, if you talk about rugged, this dude is rugged.
- 27:32Speaker 7: You know, And I was talking to him just a
- 27:34Speaker 7: little bit about you know, running game and what it's
- 27:37Speaker 7: like today, and I said, would you be able to
- 27:39Speaker 7: play in today's game?
- 27:40Speaker 5: He goes, yeah, but they wouldn't have the patience for
- 27:43Speaker 5: me in today's game. I go, what do you mean
- 27:44Speaker 5: by that?
- 27:45Speaker 7: He goes, well, you know, for every you know, five
- 27:47Speaker 7: yard game, there'd be two or three one yard games
- 27:50Speaker 7: and coaches would just keep feeding you the ball and
- 27:52Speaker 7: eventually you break through.
- 27:54Speaker 5: Today's game, there's no patience for the run game.
- 27:56Speaker 7: And he's right. Coaches are impatient. Coaches want to get
- 28:00Speaker 7: that big one. They and if they get a one
- 28:03Speaker 7: yard gain a two yard game, they lose patience. And
- 28:05Speaker 7: I think, to be honest with you, that was one
- 28:07Speaker 7: of the arguments against Sean Payton's offense, right, losing patients.
- 28:10Speaker 5: In the run game.
- 28:11Speaker 4: Oh you know that's a great just.

- 29:50Speaker 5: Was he really? Yes? Yeah, that's been a nicer guy.
- 29:54Speaker 3: That story would have been a lot funnier if instead
- 29:56Speaker 3: of Jim Plunkett he just said, Hey, are you Rex Burkehead?

- 31:38Speaker 7: Can I make one more observation about what I see here?
- 31:42Speaker 7: Here's what I see and it's early here in San Francisco.
- 31:45Speaker 7: Remember we're an hour earlier than you guys at seven
- 31:48Speaker 7: thirty eight in the am. I am always I mean
- 31:53Speaker 7: surprised is not the word. I shouldn't be surprised anymore.
- 31:56Speaker 7: I am almost off kilter, like flabbergame at how poorly
- 32:02Speaker 7: some of our brethren in the media dress. Like what
- 32:05Speaker 7: they wear in public is I might have to do
- 32:09Speaker 7: a story on this. Where do you shop? You shop
- 32:13Speaker 7: at the grocery store, What are you wearing?
- 32:16Speaker 3: Choose some class I've bought a seven eleven T shirt before.
- 32:19Speaker 7: I mean, what are we doing here? This is the
- 32:21Speaker 7: super Bowl, it's media week, it's media row. I don't
- 32:25Speaker 7: understand how these people show up with some of this stuff.
- 32:28Speaker 5: What are you doing?
- 32:29Speaker 4: I bought underwearing clothes out of a French grocery store
- 32:32Speaker 4: one time. I was out of necessity. I didn't have
- 32:36Speaker 4: any other clothes.
- 32:36Speaker 3: Underwear with a bag, and it's embarrassing.
- 32:38Speaker 4: Do you know how tight French underwear is?
- 32:40Speaker 7: By the way they give the media, they give our business,
- 32:44Speaker 7: my business such a bad reputation.
- 32:47Speaker 4: My goodness, you see how tight Vic shred is on
- 32:50Speaker 4: him today, and it looks good, by the way it
- 32:52Speaker 4: does look good French underwear large size or twice three
- 32:57Speaker 4: times as tight as that. You can't believe outside you
- 32:59Speaker 4: are Stude's.
- 33:00Speaker 5: Walking around in overalls over here.
- 33:02Speaker 3: One last reminder, you keyword for this hour is wail,
- 33:05Speaker 3: So text your first last name to three oh three
- 33:07Speaker 3: five four nine two five back after this. All right,
- 33:10Speaker 3: Vick is in San Francisco on radio row, as he
- 33:13Speaker 3: will be all week heading into the Super Bowl. Finish
- 33:19Speaker 3: your meal in your dance mosh Vic.
- 33:22Speaker 8: By the way, what you're missing by being out there
- 33:23Speaker 8: in the insanity of San Francisco is Mosuer was just
- 33:27Speaker 8: playing air guitar and dancing. To let me Lenny Kravitz, well,
- 33:29Speaker 8: just hammering pop tarts.
- 33:31Speaker 7: I'll send you one boy him playing air guitars guitar
- 33:35Speaker 7: that one before.
- 33:36Speaker 3: His air guitar was really low and below his waist,
- 33:39Speaker 3: by the way, but it was.
- 33:40Speaker 8: It was air guitar with one hand, pop tarts with
- 33:42Speaker 8: the other hand. Honestly, Mosuer, you're a jack of all trades.
- 33:44Speaker 8: I gotta give you credit.
- 33:45Speaker 7: Hey, guys, you know my favorite question last night? I
- 33:47Speaker 7: did not attend the what do they call it? It's
- 33:51Speaker 7: NFL Media Night. It used to be Media Day, but
- 33:54Speaker 7: It's just a cavalcade of chaos, is what it is
- 33:58Speaker 7: on Monday nights. But my favorite question, because I saw
- 34:01Speaker 7: some video of this, was people asking Seattle coaches and
- 34:05Speaker 7: players if they're at the goal line in a goal
- 34:09Speaker 7: line situation late in the game, do they pass the
- 34:12Speaker 7: ball or which harkens back to, of course, the big
- 34:15Speaker 7: play and none of them.
- 34:17Speaker 3: Were responsible for.
- 34:18Speaker 7: I know, I know, but I'm just it's just funny
- 34:20Speaker 7: because when you when you go back at it, and
- 34:23Speaker 7: here we are again, right, it always comes down to this.
- 34:25Speaker 7: Even as Bronco fans were talking about should they run
- 34:28Speaker 7: the ball or throw the ball?
- 34:29Speaker 5: In fourth and fourth down? Should they run it or
- 34:31Speaker 5: throw it?
- 34:32Speaker 7: In that Super Bowl? Think about the pain of that
- 34:34Speaker 7: Super Bowl. You had Marshaw Lynch in your backfield. Marshaw Lynch,
- 34:39Speaker 7: you decide to get cute, throw the ball at the
- 34:42Speaker 7: goal line, and it cost you a Lombardi Trophy that
- 34:47Speaker 7: is unfathomable.
- 34:49Speaker 5: Years later, I still can't believe that that play happened.
- 34:53Speaker 3: You see what else is how do I speak in
- 34:57Speaker 3: code here?
- 34:58Speaker 5: Uh?
- 34:59Speaker 3: You know, who's really upset of some dealings that took
- 35:03Speaker 3: place right before all this stuff started? What do you
- 35:08Speaker 3: think that Roger Goodell had an his Bingo card answering
- 35:11Speaker 3: questions about Steve Tish this week.
- 35:13Speaker 5: Oh my god, you know he had that on his
- 35:16Speaker 5: Bengo card. Okay, you might have.
- 35:18Speaker 7: You might have to dial up DMAC for this one,
- 35:20Speaker 7: because years ago DMAK came to the Commissioner's press conference
- 35:23Speaker 7: and asked a question.
- 35:24Speaker 5: I can't remember what the question was.
- 35:27Speaker 7: It was probably about the was it about the sale
- 35:30Speaker 7: of the Broncos I can't remember. But now they only
- 35:34Speaker 7: offer select questioners. They only pick certain people to ask
- 35:38Speaker 7: these questions. And I don't know, if you guys watched this,
- 35:40Speaker 7: it's getting a little too heavy for me. Yeah, I
- 35:42Speaker 7: mean it's getting a little too Hey, everybody, we're journalists.
- 35:46Speaker 7: Let's ask the hard hitting questions.
- 35:48Speaker 4: I'm like, ah, just.
- 35:49Speaker 5: Here for a football game, sport. Yeah, I just want
- 35:53Speaker 5: to watch a football game. Man, it is way too
- 35:56Speaker 5: hot and heavy for my taste.
- 35:57Speaker 3: I go to football, I guarantee you, Godel like you
- 36:00Speaker 3: couldn't have waited a week, just a week.
- 36:03Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 36:04Speaker 4: I go to football to escape the realities of daily
- 36:08Speaker 4: life and the world, not to hear what they have
- 36:12Speaker 4: to say about them.
- 36:13Speaker 7: Yeah, and maybe maybe those people are better than I am,
- 36:16Speaker 7: and that we are. Maybe they are, maybe they're I
- 36:18Speaker 7: don't think.
- 36:18Speaker 5: I don't think so, I just don't. I just want
- 36:21Speaker 5: to play football. I'd like to know how New England's
- 36:24Speaker 5: gonna stop Sam Donold. There you go about all I got?
- 36:27Speaker 6: I think they think it doesn't matter.
- 36:32Speaker 3: I would I would like.
- 36:33Speaker 4: To worry about, Hey, what's with these home games? Tyler
- 36:37Speaker 4: Columbus on our very airwaves and on his Twitter feed,
- 36:43Speaker 4: he's convinced that the NFL wants to make every team
- 36:45Speaker 4: play an international game every year, down.
- 36:48Speaker 3: Than if they extend it to twenty games, they will
- 36:51Speaker 3: well the rumor, fellas, and it's just a rumor.
- 36:54Speaker 5: At this point, I have nobody, so I would like
- 36:55Speaker 5: to know.
- 36:56Speaker 4: I mean, I would like to say, hey, Roger, what's
- 36:57Speaker 4: the ultimate goal to have a an NFL Europe, have
- 37:02Speaker 4: an NFL South America, in NFL Australia.
- 37:06Speaker 5: I mean, what, what?
- 37:07Speaker 1: What?
- 37:07Speaker 4: What's the ultimate goal here?
- 37:09Speaker 5: The goal is to spread the word.
- 37:11Speaker 7: But the rumor, by the way, most get your Spanish
- 37:14Speaker 7: ready to go, is that the Denver Broncos their next
- 37:17Speaker 7: international game maybe in Mexico City, which I think would
- 37:20Speaker 7: be cool.
- 37:20Speaker 5: The Teca stadium. Yeah, don't they have the they have
- 37:25Speaker 5: a territorial right territory.
- 37:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 37:28Speaker 7: Those territorial rights are weird because there are several teams
- 37:30Speaker 7: that have the territorial rights to Mexico and Latin America.
- 37:33Speaker 5: That's it's just not just the Broncos have it.
- 37:36Speaker 4: But the last was it the last well, the Rams
- 37:38Speaker 4: and the Chiefs, the game that you and I attended.
- 37:40Speaker 5: Yes, they were supposed to play in Mexico.
- 37:42Speaker 6: It's correct, and the turf was to the turf was
- 37:44Speaker 6: too torn up.
- 37:44Speaker 3: They couldn't do it.
- 37:45Speaker 7: They had to move it back to La Yes, but
- 37:47Speaker 7: I would love to go to a game there to
- 37:49Speaker 7: be ho. You know, make so much more sense than
- 37:51Speaker 7: going to like Lisbon or Munich. It just does.
- 37:56Speaker 6: So one of the Portuguese know about football.
- 38:00Speaker 3: I'm a Mexico frequenter.
- 38:02Speaker 5: I see some guys something right now.
- 38:05Speaker 7: When I used to go vacation and like a Polko
- 38:07Speaker 7: and Mazet line in all those places, they used to
- 38:10Speaker 7: get Channel four as their main CBS feed, so they
- 38:13Speaker 7: would watch Broncos games and and they would actually recognize,
- 38:16Speaker 7: Like when I used to do the postgame they used
- 38:18Speaker 7: to watch. I used to show up then they know
- 38:20Speaker 7: who I was really resorts in most line because they're
- 38:24Speaker 7: Bronco fans.
- 38:25Speaker 5: There are a ton of Bronco fans in Mexico.
- 38:27Speaker 4: And sense I can see it now, going to get
- 38:30Speaker 4: himself Margarita. I love that little girl, Margita. It's funny,
- 38:38Speaker 4: but you got a guy down there hanging out right,
- 38:42Speaker 4: hanging out the resort and goes.
- 38:44Speaker 5: Oh, it's.
- 38:47Speaker 3: How do you say?
- 38:48Speaker 5: You stop?
- 38:49Speaker 3: Everybody stop?
- 38:50Speaker 6: Wait?
- 38:51Speaker 3: Is starting last? Yes, that's you.
- 38:55Speaker 6: Hey, you used to be on the news that hand.
- 38:57Speaker 3: Can we go back to Vick's super italian an accent
- 39:00Speaker 3: for a Mexican.
- 39:03Speaker 6: Oh, it's veg.
- 39:07Speaker 7: What is that?
- 39:08Speaker 5: I have a better accent than Jesse.
- 39:10Speaker 7: You remember the story Jesse, Ryan Harris myself went to
- 39:13Speaker 7: the Hall of Fame in Canton and we went to
- 39:14Speaker 7: the Spanish Jesse order Jesse.
- 39:17Speaker 6: True heel is Hispanic, and He's like, I'll have, uh,
- 39:21Speaker 6: the number six.
- 39:22Speaker 5: You had no idea. We had to have Ryan translate.
- 39:25Speaker 5: Ryan Harris hysterical.
- 39:27Speaker 8: And actually mo the one place where the Spanish does
- 39:30Speaker 8: sound Italian is Argentina. They sound very Italian down there,
- 39:33Speaker 8: So Vic was just mixing up his countries.
- 39:35Speaker 5: Vic.
- 39:35Speaker 6: When you do when you do teddy kg B. You
- 39:37Speaker 6: sound Italian?
- 39:39Speaker 5: Oh it's vek.
- 39:42Speaker 4: Okay.
- 39:46Speaker 3: AnyWho, Hey, there was something we laid out earlier vic
- 39:50Speaker 3: because the trade deadline in the NBA is two days away,
- 39:52Speaker 3: and now James Harden is looking like he's going to
- 39:55Speaker 3: be moved from the Clips.
- 39:56Speaker 5: Just crazy. Could somebody help me understand what's going on
- 39:59Speaker 5: with the Clippers.
- 40:00Speaker 3: You want conspiracy?
- 40:01Speaker 5: Yeah? Please shoot.
- 40:03Speaker 3: You want a conspiracy based on no actual knowledge?
- 40:05Speaker 5: Yes? I love those. Those are the best, Like, we
- 40:07Speaker 5: don't have enough of that in this country.
- 40:09Speaker 3: There was a thing that happened, if you remember, a
- 40:12Speaker 3: journalist by the name of Public Tory was talking about
- 40:15Speaker 3: this company called Aspiration, uh huh and how they might
- 40:17Speaker 3: have illegally funded an endorsement check to skirt the capitals
- 40:21Speaker 3: for Kawhi Leonard.
- 40:23Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 40:23Speaker 3: And it was long rumored that the punishment for this,
- 40:26Speaker 3: if there was going to be one, would probably come
- 40:28Speaker 3: after the All Star break because it's being held at
- 40:30Speaker 3: the Clippers Arena.
- 40:31Speaker 5: Interesting, yeah, okay, Well do they know that.
- 40:35Speaker 3: There might be a suspension coming after the All Star
- 40:38Speaker 3: break and they don't have a chance of winning anything?
- 40:40Speaker 5: Oh, so they're just basically abandoned in ship they're gonna.
- 40:46Speaker 3: No information rumor I got you, Maybe I.
- 40:49Speaker 7: Got you, And maybe it helps explain this renaissance of
- 40:53Speaker 7: sorts out of Kawhi Leonard, how he's playing just above
- 40:56Speaker 7: and beyond over the last couple of months, because maybe
- 40:59Speaker 7: he knows something is coming and this is it.
- 41:03Speaker 3: I have. It also might explain why he is not
- 41:05Speaker 3: in the All Star Game despite being a pretty good player.
- 41:09Speaker 5: Sort of coming together now, isn't it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 41:12Speaker 5: that's uh, that's interesting, Brett.
- 41:14Speaker 3: I will say this, Vic, and you know this to
- 41:16Speaker 3: be true.
- 41:18Speaker 4: Caeter, I love you. You're not You're not You're not
- 41:22Speaker 4: the smartest person.
- 41:22Speaker 5: In the world, but you have great like Rumor mill Stone.
- 41:26Speaker 3: Nothing but but I've never accused. I've never claimed to
- 41:29Speaker 3: be smart.
- 41:30Speaker 4: Actually I think you're You're probably pretty smart, not book smart,
- 41:33Speaker 4: but smart smart. But your ability to put these threads
- 41:37Speaker 4: and wind them together the former Little Bow is pretty impressive.
- 41:41Speaker 4: I'm impressed by you this morning.
- 41:44Speaker 6: Again.
- 41:44Speaker 3: Is that gonna happen? Probably not, but it could explain something.
- 41:48Speaker 5: It just came out of left field.
- 41:49Speaker 7: I mean, if there was any dealings in LA I
- 41:53Speaker 7: did not have James Harden at the top of the list.
- 41:55Speaker 7: Especially the way the Clippers have played of late. They've
- 41:57Speaker 7: been the hottest team in the NBA over the last month.
- 42:00Speaker 7: They played great basketball. You figure they can make a run,
- 42:02Speaker 7: and now they're going to disassemble it. I'm like, what
- 42:05Speaker 7: it just it just made no sense. Listen, this next
- 42:08Speaker 7: three days in NBA Circle is gonna be very interesting.
- 42:11Speaker 5: I know you guys touched on it.
- 42:12Speaker 7: I listened to you a little bit in that first
- 42:14Speaker 7: hour talking about what the Nuggets will do and three doors.
- 42:18Speaker 7: I think that option the one that makes the most sense.
- 42:21Speaker 7: The one I would expect them to pull off, is
- 42:23Speaker 7: maybe shed some salary so they can get Spencer Jones
- 42:26Speaker 7: signed to a full time contract.
- 42:28Speaker 6: That's a little That's that's option two VIC, that's the
- 42:30Speaker 6: little deal.
- 42:32Speaker 7: Yeah, and that that one makes the most sense. I
- 42:34Speaker 7: would be not shell shocked, that's too much. I would
- 42:37Speaker 7: be stunned if the Nuggets made a move that involved
- 42:41Speaker 7: multiple players or bringing in somebody that we I just
- 42:45Speaker 7: I think they're content in what they have and I
- 42:47Speaker 7: think they know that this roster can compete. So doing
- 42:50Speaker 7: something above and beyond that would surprise me.
- 42:52Speaker 3: Yeah, doing the one that we talked about that I
- 42:55Speaker 3: think is by far the least likely. But I guess
- 42:57Speaker 3: an option when you think about long we gotta pay
- 43:00Speaker 3: Peyton Watson. Can we try and get something off the books?
- 43:04Speaker 3: I just think doing that doing a long term move
- 43:09Speaker 3: and sacrificing short term success like getting rid of the
- 43:13Speaker 3: Cam Johnson or something right now, like you're trying to
- 43:16Speaker 3: win a championship.
- 43:17Speaker 7: See and they can do that after the fact, right,
- 43:19Speaker 7: I don't. They don't need to make room for Peyton
- 43:22Speaker 7: Watson that deal, That deal is down the road, absolutely right.
- 43:27Speaker 7: If you win a championship with this roster. Let's say
- 43:29Speaker 7: that you win a championship, then are you championship? Then
- 43:33Speaker 7: then all bets are off. They can do whatever they want.
- 43:35Speaker 7: At that point they might get greeting and decide we're
- 43:37Speaker 7: going to go into the tax I don't know. But
- 43:39Speaker 7: let's say they're close and and they get to assess
- 43:42Speaker 7: what they're lacking. They do that after the season, not now, right,
- 43:46Speaker 7: I agree.
- 43:47Speaker 4: Hey, Vic, you're sitting there and sand friend, do you
- 43:50Speaker 4: realize and Manuel, I thank you for texting in you
- 43:55Speaker 4: realize that at any moment you could get a six
- 43:58Speaker 4: point eight six.
- 44:01Speaker 7: Jesse asked me how I slept last night? And I
- 44:03Speaker 7: told him I woke up every hour on the hour.
- 44:05Speaker 7: Just wait, I'm looking for like you're waiting, you're waiting
- 44:08Speaker 7: for it to happen. I'm waiting for escape routes. I'm
- 44:10Speaker 7: on the tenth floor. I'm like, Okay, where do I
- 44:11Speaker 7: go if that starts shaking? I can't, dude, I'm a
- 44:14Speaker 7: weirdo about that. I don't trust the mother Earth below me.
- 44:17Speaker 7: I just don't trust it right now, not in this place.
- 44:22Speaker 3: I don't trust that's the mother Earth below me.
- 44:25Speaker 4: Bro, that's what that's a. That's a I live by
- 44:27Speaker 4: that code. Don't trust the Earth.
- 44:30Speaker 5: I mean it shakes a lot here, that's for sure.
- 44:34Speaker 4: It certainly tries to kill you occasionally. Yeah, it does
- 44:36Speaker 4: try and do that. There's stuff with Earth like Girth's like, hey,
- 44:39Speaker 4: you got some humans around?
- 44:40Speaker 5: Or is that old?
- 44:41Speaker 4: It's let me let me watch mell a little bit.
- 44:43Speaker 3: It's that old George Carlin bit where he talks about
- 44:46Speaker 3: everybody's talking about doing this saving the planet. The planet's
- 44:50Speaker 3: gonna be fine. We'll be dead, but the planet it
- 44:54Speaker 3: survived everything ice ages, he waves, It's still here.
- 44:57Speaker 7: It's it's really starting to pick up here at least
- 45:00Speaker 7: up a little bit so I can give you.
- 45:01Speaker 5: A better look at the I got around us.
- 45:04Speaker 7: We have, Oh my goodness, it's it's honestly like an
- 45:07Speaker 7: amusement park here what we have because we have these
- 45:09Speaker 7: elaborate setups with all these gambling apps. They have their
- 45:13Speaker 7: their setups here. ESPN's got an entire wing. Bleacher Report
- 45:17Speaker 7: is to my right, they have like a mock arcade game.
- 45:21Speaker 7: And again, hundreds upon hundreds of radio stations and websites
- 45:26Speaker 7: that are here. Uh and and right now, this is
- 45:29Speaker 7: the time of the day where everybody starts assembling and
- 45:31Speaker 7: coming in and you're going to see celebrities make their way.
- 45:35Speaker 7: I will be here through the course of the day,
- 45:37Speaker 7: not just during our show, but I'll be here for
- 45:39Speaker 7: the rest of the day, making appearances, hopefully on the
