Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: This is Mosher, Lombardy and Caine on demand.
- 0:04Speaker 2: Listen live every weekday morning from seven to ten on
- 0:07Speaker 2: Altitude Sports Radio ninety two to five and on the
- 0:10Speaker 2: Altitude Sports Radio app.
- 0:19Speaker 1: All right, six.
- 0:20Speaker 3: Forty five left to go here. The app's looking for
- 0:22Speaker 3: a little mojo.
- 0:23Speaker 2: They're looking for that big moment.
- 0:24Speaker 1: Because there is nothing better.
- 0:27Speaker 4: And when ball Arena gets crazy and gets really loud,
- 0:31Speaker 4: except for when this little Bernie Mountain showdout, I can't
- 0:35Speaker 4: wait to hear if this crowd can get loud, we'll
- 0:37Speaker 4: just have to watch him see.
- 0:41Speaker 3: Oh Baba Sita.
- 0:45Speaker 1: Was that Martin Natius. He's sport last night.
- 0:48Speaker 5: He's got one of the best rist shots.
- 0:50Speaker 1: He's one of the fastest players.
- 0:52Speaker 5: Kyle and I think he came down and just bamboozled
- 0:55Speaker 5: one right into the back.
- 0:56Speaker 3: Of the Oh look at Bernie, he's got it going off.
- 0:59Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I fear it comebo.
- 1:04Speaker 3: You know we almost always after an Avalanche game come
- 1:08Speaker 3: in with a Mosier clip. But I gotta tell you,
- 1:12Speaker 3: I really enjoyed Kyle, Keith and Riker.
- 1:16Speaker 2: Bamboozled, bamboozled.
- 1:22Speaker 3: I had baby Jamal Kele watch about a minute of
- 1:24Speaker 3: that before she got bored.
- 1:27Speaker 2: She liked it.
- 1:28Speaker 3: She likes seeing Bernie drop the puck. She thought that
- 1:30Speaker 3: was funny. Then she wanted to watch Bluie, but you know,
- 1:36Speaker 3: she watched for a minute. She watched for a full minute.
- 1:41Speaker 3: So I guess, great job, Keifer Riker, wonderful job. I
- 1:47Speaker 3: do think it's funny. We got a clip that will
- 1:50Speaker 3: play a little bit later. They were instructed if there
- 1:56Speaker 3: is a fight that's happening, that they do not talk
- 2:00Speaker 3: about the fight or get excited about the fight. That
- 2:03Speaker 3: they say things like, hey, kids, if you have a problem,
- 2:06Speaker 3: then you go to your bench and you don't blah
- 2:08Speaker 3: blah blah. And when Landeskog threw his stick in the
- 2:12Speaker 3: face of oh, I forget who it was. We'll play
- 2:17Speaker 3: in a little bit, Eric sinek, Eric Sinak, Yes, we'll
- 2:20Speaker 3: play in a little bit. Them trying to tiptoe around.
- 2:24Speaker 3: I could tell that Keith just wanted to call cartoons
- 2:28Speaker 3: fighting each other.
- 2:29Speaker 2: He just wanted to call the fight.
- 2:30Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, the Avs lose
- 2:32Speaker 3: because they were in the penalty box for I think
- 2:34Speaker 3: sixteen minutes during that second period. Most what the hell
- 2:37Speaker 3: was going on there? First of all, phantom call from
- 2:40Speaker 3: Kale And that's so this game last night is incredibly frustrating.
- 2:43Speaker 3: I don't know to be sour grapes.
- 2:46Speaker 2: I love to you see if I can find it.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Mick Kerrn from NHL Network Radio on Sirius X album,
- 2:53Speaker 2: one of the hosts on there, and I knew that
- 2:56Speaker 2: he was talking about Johnny and I let's see here,
- 2:59Speaker 2: put about up up up uh, he got all up tight.
- 3:04Speaker 2: He says, I just hate when oh oh man, the
- 3:08Speaker 2: whining by some NHL play by play cruise about officiating
- 3:12Speaker 2: his wife taking to play music most during NHL games.
- 3:15Speaker 2: Not saying they're wrong, just saying I'd rather listen to
- 3:18Speaker 2: music because you guys were getting upset about the refs. Well,
- 3:24Speaker 2: here's the thing, I mean, I guess I was not
- 3:26Speaker 2: upset about the refs other than the Keil mccarr call.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Did Landeskog elbow Eric Sinek in the head, Yeah?
- 3:34Speaker 3: Yeah he did.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Did Valdachushkin get his stick on the cross checkup high
- 3:40Speaker 2: on yes boldy?
- 3:41Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 3:42Speaker 2: Did Brent Burns throw the puck high in the ear
- 3:45Speaker 2: over the glass?
- 3:46Speaker 3: Yep?
- 3:47Speaker 2: Sure? Did you brought that on yourselves? I mean, that's
- 3:51Speaker 2: an absolute fact, what I get frustrated about is number
- 3:55Speaker 2: one that first, the kale call was a bad call
- 3:58Speaker 2: officials opt But I can understand you going to like
- 4:03Speaker 2: it looks terrible. It's essentially blade on blade and you
- 4:06Speaker 2: could tell that that trend and stick was breaking anyway,
- 4:09Speaker 2: right it was, I mean it was gone.
- 4:12Speaker 3: I don't get why you can't challenge something like that.
- 4:14Speaker 3: That's very obviously like a did he touch the stick
- 4:17Speaker 3: or not sort of thing. No, like, that's not a
- 4:22Speaker 3: judgment call. It's kind of like in baseball, it's like
- 4:24Speaker 3: was he out or was he.
- 4:25Speaker 2: It's like he can't challenge a past interference call, but
- 4:28Speaker 2: that's judgment right, right, Well, this is a judgment call.
- 4:31Speaker 3: Too, but you can't you but if he doesn't hit
- 4:34Speaker 3: the stick, then it's not a penalty, you know what
- 4:37Speaker 3: I mean. No, he did hit the stick.
- 4:39Speaker 2: He just didn't sowt in half at the hand right,
- 4:42Speaker 2: blade on blade, which happens, which is allowed you go ahead. Sorry, okay,
- 4:46Speaker 2: So then they end up scoring that that power play goal.
- 4:49Speaker 2: If I you kill off, as Vic says, oh my god,
- 4:59Speaker 2: we'll get to him in his s second, you kill
- 5:01Speaker 2: off a lot. You look atrocious. You look like like
- 5:05Speaker 2: you slipped under an elephant. You look like actually, you
- 5:07Speaker 2: look like Boniz's illegitimate dad. You look like a thirteen
- 5:10Speaker 2: year old on snow day. So look at my face
- 5:13Speaker 2: this morning. Okay, it looks like I got a hit
- 5:15Speaker 2: with you know, ten pounds of meat.
- 5:17Speaker 1: An, I don't want to do this show anymore. Why,
- 5:20Speaker 1: I'm just tired of doing the.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Show because your face looks like beat meat all this?
- 5:28Speaker 1: Just do you ever get those days where you're just
- 5:31Speaker 1: tired of doing the show?
- 5:34Speaker 2: Vic, you're tired of going away? I look at your face. No,
- 5:37Speaker 2: So the deal is that is that you kill it
- 5:39Speaker 2: almost all off, I know, and then dude just throws
- 5:42Speaker 2: it into the crease and it banks off the inside
- 5:44Speaker 2: of the skate. You're like, are you kidding me?
- 5:47Speaker 3: Is there no justice in this world?
- 5:49Speaker 2: Is there no justice? Oh?
- 5:51Speaker 1: Can you explain the penalty on the car and why
- 5:55Speaker 1: that wasn't a penalty for those who are hockey?
- 5:59Speaker 2: Yeah, you can, amateur, you can have blade meat blade,
- 6:03Speaker 2: it's no problem. But I think the official was on
- 6:07Speaker 2: the outside and saw Kale come down with his stick
- 6:10Speaker 2: and the stick snaps right at the lower hand, right
- 6:13Speaker 2: in the middle of the shaft and he's like, oh, yeah,
- 6:16Speaker 2: he just saw his stick right out.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Of his hand, so he thought he hit higher on
- 6:19Speaker 1: the stick, way higher, right, correct? So why is it
- 6:22Speaker 1: that reviewable? That's what I was just asking.
- 6:25Speaker 2: It's just like his holding reviewables past interview. It's a
- 6:27Speaker 2: judgment call. It's not like an offside, which you can
- 6:31Speaker 2: leads to a penalty that's a big deal. It's not
- 6:33Speaker 2: like a so does a pass interference penalty forty yards
- 6:36Speaker 2: down the field when a guy never touched the guy
- 6:38Speaker 2: and a guy tripped over his own feet.
- 6:40Speaker 3: You know, it's it's just the way it is.
- 6:41Speaker 2: So and the game would take seventeen hours if we
- 6:44Speaker 2: got into all those kind of reviews. That being said,
- 6:47Speaker 2: it's it's just frustrating that the goal was scored, the
- 6:50Speaker 2: second power play goal was scored in that fashion.
- 6:53Speaker 3: Yeah, I wanted to ask you about that.
- 6:54Speaker 2: You had you had two goals off skates and two
- 6:56Speaker 2: empty net goals and the Abs earned both of their goals.
- 7:00Speaker 3: So who were the guys in the five on three?
- 7:02Speaker 3: It was Kulak, was it Brock?
- 7:04Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I think it was, and then somebody else
- 7:07Speaker 2: I heard and Burns.
- 7:09Speaker 3: They were on the ice for like a minute and
- 7:10Speaker 3: a half, and I was gonna ask you, like, I
- 7:13Speaker 3: know that you give up.
- 7:14Speaker 1: Burne wasn't on the icy. I had to go off
- 7:16Speaker 1: for throwing the pipe.
- 7:17Speaker 2: That's true, mister Manson.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Yeah, so they're on the ice for a minute and
- 7:21Speaker 3: a half, and I know it's like, it's disappointing that
- 7:24Speaker 3: you give up a goal when you did with was
- 7:26Speaker 3: it thirty eight thirty nine seconds left on that power play?
- 7:29Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 7:29Speaker 3: But is it almost kind of encouraging with how well
- 7:32Speaker 3: they played previous to that, you know what I mean,
- 7:34Speaker 3: like the overall feeling of that.
- 7:36Speaker 2: I think listen, I think they didn't. I don't think
- 7:39Speaker 2: they played a bad game at all. Again, the puck
- 7:43Speaker 2: finds really weird ways to go in the third goal
- 7:46Speaker 2: for them, it's off Borello or not Zerello, but what's
- 7:51Speaker 2: his face is trying to throw it to but it
- 7:55Speaker 2: goes off the toe and then past Mackenzie Black. But
- 7:58Speaker 2: then you get two empty netters and that's it.
- 8:00Speaker 3: He also had He also had the abs through forty.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Seven pucks at the Minnesota net. Their goalies made forty
- 8:07Speaker 2: five saves. Gustavson I think made forty one of those,
- 8:09Speaker 2: and then he barfed.
- 8:10Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, that was disgusting, and it was what made
- 8:16Speaker 1: it more disgusting is the other goalie comes in and
- 8:19Speaker 1: just sort of scrapes it aside, like.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Well, they got to shovel. No, they got to shovel
- 8:22Speaker 2: to get the barf up.
- 8:23Speaker 3: You know, hello vomit. Hello?
- 8:27Speaker 2: Do you thin they explain that on the cartoon?
- 8:29Speaker 3: I wonder, how? Right, great question?
- 8:31Speaker 1: How did they explain the vomit on a cartoon to
- 8:34Speaker 1: six year olds?
- 8:36Speaker 3: I do?
- 8:36Speaker 2: I don't know. Okay, Well, you know when you're tummy's
- 8:40Speaker 2: feeling queezy wheezy, and sometimes you just don't feel that
- 8:44Speaker 2: so good?
- 8:45Speaker 1: What part of the game was that? And I can
- 8:47Speaker 1: go dig it up.
- 8:47Speaker 2: He's right at the end, in the last last minute
- 8:51Speaker 2: and a half. Well, I mean there was about two
- 8:53Speaker 2: thirty to play. No, it was one O four. It
- 8:56Speaker 2: was one O four, but again it took longer than
- 8:59Speaker 2: that to finish because they scored. I don't even know
- 9:02Speaker 2: if they.
- 9:03Speaker 3: Well, it's not like the sensors on those cartoons are
- 9:09Speaker 3: going to pick up there's no sensor for bodily fluid
- 9:12Speaker 3: checking from anybody, although it would be hilarious if it did.
- 9:15Speaker 2: Kids Dustafsen just lost his cookies. Who's lost their cookies?
- 9:20Speaker 2: Raise your hand.
- 9:21Speaker 1: I had to watch the entire first period via cartoon
- 9:26Speaker 1: because for some reason, the real broadcast, your broadcast was
- 9:32Speaker 1: not being shown on Fubo, and then they figured it out. Well, no, foo, No,
- 9:37Speaker 1: I'm telling you what. I'm telling you what I went through.
- 9:39Speaker 1: You can't tell me what I went through. I'm telling
- 9:41Speaker 1: you what I went through.
- 9:42Speaker 3: Here's what I do know.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Fubo has a conflict right now with nine News. They
- 9:46Speaker 2: have since November. Yes, so nine News is not on Fubo.
- 9:50Speaker 1: NBC is not carried by Fubo. And for those who wondering, no,
- 9:53Speaker 1: no KTVD is I know KTVD NBC is not. That's nine.
- 10:00Speaker 1: And the reason behind that, I you know, go on
- 10:02Speaker 1: and on. Who owns most Who owns f Warner Brothers.
- 10:07Speaker 1: I don't know, No, Disney, Disney, ESPN, Who owns NBC?
- 10:11Speaker 2: NBC post?
- 10:13Speaker 1: So they fight all the time, Yeah, they fight all
- 10:16Speaker 1: the time.
- 10:16Speaker 2: They fight.
- 10:18Speaker 1: And now Fubo doesn't carry NBC, and it's whatever I
- 10:21Speaker 1: do have.
- 10:22Speaker 2: I like the cartoon.
- 10:24Speaker 1: I'm watching the cartoon. I'm watching the whole first period cartoon,
- 10:28Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh my god, this is a lot
- 10:31Speaker 1: of talking for Kyle and Mark. They got to talk
- 10:33Speaker 1: the entire like, there's no neat sound. I don't know
- 10:38Speaker 1: if it hit for young kids.
- 10:39Speaker 2: I'm hoping. I hope it did.
- 10:40Speaker 1: And I'm sure like if my kids are that young,
- 10:42Speaker 1: they'd probably watch it because it's a cartoon. But oh
- 10:45Speaker 1: my god, I couldn't wait for your broadcast the first
- 10:47Speaker 1: time I've ever wanted to see your face.
- 10:50Speaker 3: Hey, god, Mellie you we had this video. So they
- 10:54Speaker 3: were exclusively told vic if there is a fight, you
- 10:58Speaker 3: cannot hype up the fight.
- 10:59Speaker 2: You have to tone it down.
- 11:00Speaker 3: Can they hype up? Barf? And so when Landeskog went,
- 11:04Speaker 3: Eric Sinakin threw a stick right in his chin.
- 11:08Speaker 2: You can see it happening on the cartoon.
- 11:10Speaker 3: But listen to what they have to do, all right,
- 11:13Speaker 3: cal mccar oh, that looks.
- 11:15Speaker 1: Like maybe too many men on the ice?
- 11:17Speaker 3: Tell everybody what that.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Means, because that's a tough one. Well, what does too
- 11:20Speaker 1: many men on the ice meet?
- 11:21Speaker 5: You're only allowed five players and a goalie on the ice,
- 11:23Speaker 5: But if you accidentally.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Sneak a sixth on there and your team.
- 11:27Speaker 3: Touches the pocket that's illegal.
- 11:29Speaker 1: Too many men on the ice. Oh, got a little
- 11:31Speaker 1: something shaken down now. In hockey, we always.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Want you to be respectful and sell to have any
- 11:39Speaker 3: sort of complication and just go away other teammates, talk
- 11:41Speaker 3: to your coaches and just kind of chill out.
- 11:44Speaker 4: That's what we're doing today, just chilling out at Bernie's
- 11:47Speaker 4: Mountain show.
- 11:48Speaker 3: No, oh my god, how great is that? How great
- 11:53Speaker 3: is that?
- 11:54Speaker 6: I actually I pulled another one from the third period
- 11:56Speaker 6: most if you want to keep having some fun with this.
- 11:58Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, let's see it on someone. He said, all
- 12:00Speaker 2: the time out, somebody goes to me to go Why
- 12:02Speaker 2: didn't they send you to New York to do the
- 12:04Speaker 2: animated gain?
- 12:04Speaker 1: You couldn't do it because would you look at this
- 12:07Speaker 1: free now.
- 12:11Speaker 6: An ale at this point, let's hear this one ahead
- 12:13Speaker 6: and then also after this, he has a funny way
- 12:15Speaker 6: to explain what a penalty is. So this is kind
- 12:18Speaker 6: of a longer clip. Okay, and I guess the clip
- 12:22Speaker 6: got sent to the box.
- 12:23Speaker 3: Why is it's all right? Just reset it now, only
- 12:27Speaker 3: reset it. We'll get it in a second.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Isn't that great?
- 12:30Speaker 2: Though? It looks like we had something going on.
- 12:31Speaker 3: Remember kids, if you have any problems, just go to
- 12:34Speaker 3: your bench, talk to your coaches. Remember, talk it through.
- 12:39Speaker 2: Just remember, kids, if somebody mouths off to you, you
- 12:42Speaker 2: pop them. Yeah.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Having let me just say this, having to watch and
- 12:48Speaker 1: I love my boys Riker and Keifer. They did a
- 12:50Speaker 1: great job. I texted him last night. You guys did
- 12:53Speaker 1: a great job. But having to watch a an Avalanche
- 12:57Speaker 1: loss via cartoon, it is very much akin to being
- 13:01Speaker 1: handed a stuffed animal after winning a silver instead of
- 13:04Speaker 1: a gold. Yeah, it's the same feeling. It's the same
- 13:09Speaker 1: exact feeling. It's like, Okay, I'll tell you.
- 13:13Speaker 5: What, Quinn hughes you just sitting behind that net. Somebody's
- 13:16Speaker 5: gotta go get them.
- 13:19Speaker 3: Yeah, that part made me a little upset. Oh, look
- 13:24Speaker 3: at the abs. This is where you're gonna see some
- 13:28Speaker 3: pretty physical.
- 13:30Speaker 1: Hockey all right. Now, they're talking about things.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Now.
- 13:33Speaker 4: The best way to handle these situations is.
- 13:35Speaker 3: Just talk it over. You know what else, this is
- 13:39Speaker 3: where we got our rescue pup training.
- 13:41Speaker 4: Told dogs are basically Avalanche.
- 13:46Speaker 3: The puppies, you're so cute.
- 13:48Speaker 1: Cut away from the sexiest cinemax.
- 13:53Speaker 2: It's like they all got together right there.
- 13:55Speaker 3: Now they're just talking and looking at these pretty puppies
- 13:57Speaker 3: over there.
- 13:58Speaker 1: And we have a trip here we go.
- 14:00Speaker 5: Oh, I think it's gonna be on Marco Sturm of
- 14:03Speaker 5: the Minnesota Wild. When you trip, I mean you put
- 14:06Speaker 5: your stick down in your opponent's feet, trip them off,
- 14:10Speaker 5: and you gotta go to your bedroom.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Two minutes for being bad in this scenari.
- 14:14Speaker 3: Go to the pennet box.
- 14:15Speaker 1: Oh my god, these guys are never gonna live this town.
- 14:19Speaker 3: To your roof.
- 14:22Speaker 1: You know, I will say this about the cartoon version,
- 14:24Speaker 1: and this is where I give you all the credit
- 14:26Speaker 1: in the world. Most I've always said, you are a
- 14:28Speaker 1: savant for being able to follow the puck the way
- 14:30Speaker 1: you do. It is easier to follow the game via cartoon.
- 14:35Speaker 1: You agree with me, Guys non mosures on this show,
- 14:38Speaker 1: it's easier to see the puck.
- 14:40Speaker 2: It ain't that hard.
- 14:43Speaker 1: And then all these tales that the puck leaves behind
- 14:46Speaker 1: and all the squish squish the hockey skates.
- 14:48Speaker 3: Just admit it. Vic doesn't want to He would rather
- 14:53Speaker 3: watch the cartoon version.
- 14:54Speaker 1: That's what you're saying, right, I'm telling you, that's what
- 14:55Speaker 1: you're saying. What my wife was with me because anyways,
- 15:00Speaker 1: she's watching the game She's like, what the hell is this?
- 15:04Speaker 1: What are you watching? And I told her this is Kyle,
- 15:07Speaker 1: I said, and she goes, Kyle works for a cartoon.
- 15:11Speaker 2: Yeah know, I for.
- 15:15Speaker 3: The rest of my life am going to say when
- 15:17Speaker 3: somebody has to go to the box, got to go to.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Your room two minutes for being.
- 15:25Speaker 1: He's being bad. I'm telling you nothing is more punishing
- 15:28Speaker 1: and painful to a true hockey purist than having to
- 15:31Speaker 1: watch a loss to the Minnesota Wild at home via cartoon.
- 15:35Speaker 3: Now, like, we gotta get Keifer on the show today
- 15:37Speaker 3: because I want to talk about nobody loves the ass
- 15:39Speaker 3: more than Kyle Keef does.
- 15:42Speaker 2: The fact that he.
- 15:42Speaker 3: Had to call a game in child voice again, a
- 15:47Speaker 3: team he hates the.
- 15:48Speaker 5: Most, and you gotta go to your bedroom two minutes
- 15:51Speaker 5: for being bad.
- 15:53Speaker 1: Take this little stuff to animal.
- 15:55Speaker 2: We gotta talk to Keith at some point today, so
- 15:57Speaker 2: we'll do that. Well, they're flying back. Their flight is
- 15:59Speaker 2: an till like to this afternoon. I guarantee you these
- 16:05Speaker 2: two guys got like over the past month, like five
- 16:08Speaker 2: six free days in New York City.
- 16:10Speaker 1: I know, why did it take so many? Do you
- 16:12Speaker 1: know how many trips they made to New.
- 16:14Speaker 2: York to prepare a lot.
- 16:15Speaker 1: How much time that's.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Because they're being they're being coached up, Hey, go your bed,
- 16:21Speaker 2: play with Orgia.
- 16:23Speaker 3: I know we're having some fun. I think they did
- 16:25Speaker 3: a good job. They did.
- 16:26Speaker 2: I mean it's not an easy thing. I couldn't. I
- 16:28Speaker 2: don't know that I could do it.
- 16:30Speaker 3: You know who else we're talking to today, ladies and gentlemen.
- 16:34Speaker 2: We got him.
- 16:36Speaker 3: Ben Denucci's gonna be with us at nine twenty this morning. Remember,
- 16:40Speaker 3: Ben Denucci was the guy on February third, when Davis
- 16:42Speaker 3: Webb was hired as the offensive coordinator. He said, let
- 16:46Speaker 3: him call plays immediately. He said, this is a great
- 16:48Speaker 3: move for the Broncos. Now just let him call plays.
- 16:50Speaker 3: We'll find out exactly why here in a couple of minutes.
- 16:53Speaker 3: By the way, Nelly, when we were doing like a
- 16:55Speaker 3: game of phone tag with Danucci and he said, got
- 16:59Speaker 3: some news something? So something?
- 17:00Speaker 1: Does he have news or not?
- 17:03Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 17:04Speaker 6: I guess what to ask the okay questions.
- 17:08Speaker 1: So Danucci's coming, great job tracking well, he played.
- 17:10Speaker 2: He played at at GMU.
- 17:12Speaker 3: I know that.
- 17:14Speaker 2: What does it mean he's gonna go back and help out?
- 17:16Speaker 2: I don't know. I guess we can have him break
- 17:18Speaker 2: it here or try to.
- 17:19Speaker 1: I I I don't. I don't want to take away
- 17:22Speaker 1: from the denude segment. But I have one more thing
- 17:24Speaker 1: to say about the cartoon. What if Kiefer had slipped
- 17:29Speaker 1: like he did to everyone's delight many years ago on
- 17:34Speaker 1: the postgame show. Do you remember the penis? Yeah, the
- 17:37Speaker 1: Peter McNabb slipped. What if he had done that during
- 17:40Speaker 1: the cartoon version? What would that have done to that broadcast?
- 17:46Speaker 1: Because you know when he starts laughing, Ryecroft starts laughing
- 17:49Speaker 1: and they can't stop laughing.
- 17:50Speaker 2: Well, I think if you're just have if you have
- 17:51Speaker 2: two guys just laughing their tails off, I'm sure the
- 17:53Speaker 2: kiddies probably laughed too.
- 17:55Speaker 3: By the way, did Riiker called former av Nico Sturm Marco?
- 18:00Speaker 2: Well, Marco's a long time player now head coach, So yeah, ah,
- 18:04Speaker 2: a little slip there.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of people on the text line agree
- 18:07Speaker 1: with me. It was much easier to follow the puck
- 18:10Speaker 1: via a cartoon.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Well, then open your dang eyes.
- 18:13Speaker 3: No, no, no, you know what I say that Riker and
- 18:16Speaker 3: Keifer go out to New York for every AVAS game
- 18:19Speaker 3: just to do a private show for.
- 18:21Speaker 1: Vic Now I say this from the bottom of my heart,
- 18:24Speaker 1: from the bottom of my heart, with all love and
- 18:26Speaker 1: respect and appreciation for my colleagues. I love them. They're
- 18:29Speaker 1: so good at what they do. And I say this,
- 18:31Speaker 1: I speak this into existence, to the Altitude production crew,
- 18:35Speaker 1: to everybody who pays our bills, to the NHL, to
- 18:37Speaker 1: all the viewers. Never do that again, ever.
- 18:43Speaker 3: Again, Vic, you weren't the target audience.
- 18:46Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this one more time. I never want
- 18:49Speaker 1: to see that again. I actually would love to what's up?
- 18:53Speaker 1: What's the big popular little kids show?
- 18:55Speaker 2: Now? What does your kid watch? Blue Blue?
- 18:59Speaker 3: I mean a lot of it's YouTube shows actually, like
- 19:01Speaker 3: Miss Rachel or Steven Maggie or.
- 19:03Speaker 2: I say this, with all due respect, cancel Bluwie. Yeah
- 19:07Speaker 2: I don't like it. Okay, Oh yeah, that's Vic. With
- 19:11Speaker 2: all due respect, just no more tell atubbies. I mean
- 19:16Speaker 2: take him all in an alley.
- 19:18Speaker 3: Anybody with young kids will understand that these shows, especially
- 19:20Speaker 3: these YouTube ones like the Miss Rachel show. You guys
- 19:22Speaker 3: know who Miss Rachel is, don't you.
- 19:24Speaker 1: I have no idea to tell you. Okay, did your
- 19:26Speaker 1: kids watch this game yesterday? Your daughter?
- 19:29Speaker 3: Maybe Jamal can't watched a minute. She thought it was
- 19:31Speaker 3: funny when Bernie dropped the puck, and then she went
- 19:34Speaker 3: back to watching her shows.
- 19:35Speaker 2: Okay, so I will hold how old is your three
- 19:38Speaker 2: and a half? I mean she's so she's.
- 19:41Speaker 1: Not holding the first Honey cartoons.
- 19:43Speaker 3: Attention to detail on a hockey game is not her
- 19:45Speaker 3: strong suit yet.
- 19:46Speaker 6: Now.
- 19:46Speaker 2: My daughter's twenty. But in the past years I would
- 19:50Speaker 2: watch some of the shows with her. Man I liked
- 19:54Speaker 2: Good Luck Charlie, so did I.
- 19:57Speaker 1: I like some of those Disney shows.
- 19:58Speaker 2: Yeah, I liked Good Luck Charlie. I liked Jesse. I
- 20:02Speaker 2: liked a little bit of Wizards of Waverley Place, a
- 20:05Speaker 2: little bit.
- 20:06Speaker 1: My daughter was on Wizards of Waverly Place. She Lexus
- 20:10Speaker 1: had a guest appearance on that.
- 20:12Speaker 2: That's awesome. Where's your wife's pillow commercial? I want to
- 20:15Speaker 2: see that again. It's weird, I know, I want to
- 20:22Speaker 2: We're not sorry, and I listen, no offense because your
- 20:25Speaker 2: wife did a great job in her pillow commercial. But
- 20:29Speaker 2: she's got the pillow, she's fluffing it, she's stroking it,
- 20:31Speaker 2: she's you know, she's doing all this stuff to the pillow.
- 20:34Speaker 2: I'm like, Terry, what are you doing with that pillow.
- 20:36Speaker 2: She's selling it, dude, She's so hey, Bill, but all
- 20:39Speaker 2: do credit your wife sold the hell out of that pillow.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Yeah. I do want to ask, because I had somebody
- 20:44Speaker 1: ask me last night, will the Nuggets do their own
- 20:46Speaker 1: cartoon like the abs DD? I said, I have no idea,
- 20:50Speaker 1: but I do want to hear from the parents. We
- 20:51Speaker 1: are not the target audience, so obviously we're going to
- 20:54Speaker 1: mock the hell out of it on this show. But
- 20:56Speaker 1: for those of you who are the target audience, who
- 20:58Speaker 1: have kids in that age range, did you walk? Did
- 21:00Speaker 1: they enjoy? I'm just eager to hear what they thought
- 21:03Speaker 1: of it.
- 21:04Speaker 3: That's all three zero three five four O nine two
- 21:06Speaker 3: five Bendnucci at nine twenty this morning. Stick around all right,
- 21:08Speaker 3: Ben Denucci's gonna join us at nine to twenty this morning.
- 21:11Speaker 3: The big game tonight between the Nuggets and the Thunder
- 21:14Speaker 3: that I want to get to in just a few minutes.
- 21:16Speaker 1: But just quickly remember next one. My kids nine, seven,
- 21:20Speaker 1: and four they loved it, watched the whole first period.
- 21:22Speaker 1: My kids eleven and nine, they loved it. My seven
- 21:25Speaker 1: year old couldn't get into it. My grandson left the
- 21:28Speaker 1: room about five minutes into the first played in his room,
- 21:31Speaker 1: and for some reason we watched a little cartoon because
- 21:33Speaker 1: we're not that bright, said one Texter.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Sorry, are you fine?
- 21:38Speaker 3: Big game tonight? Nuggets and thunder that we'll get to
- 21:41Speaker 3: in just a few minutes. But first, if you guys,
- 21:43Speaker 3: remember the NFL owners voted to not release these report
- 21:49Speaker 3: cards anymore, I think after this year. But there was
- 21:52Speaker 3: one left, so we got the report card.
- 21:57Speaker 1: Would they think they were gonna hide that like nobody
- 22:00Speaker 1: would find it?
- 22:01Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing, Like, I don't know why they'd
- 22:04Speaker 3: be so bent out of shape about this. I know
- 22:07Speaker 3: that it's a criticism of them, but it's like once
- 22:10Speaker 3: a year you do that. I mean, these guys are
- 22:12Speaker 3: criticized every time they take the field.
- 22:15Speaker 2: I think it's deserved.
- 22:16Speaker 3: And I get a hard time believing if they still
- 22:18Speaker 3: do these report cards, even though they don't make them public,
- 22:21Speaker 3: that these won't leak. But whatever, But I'm fascinated by these.
- 22:24Speaker 2: I don't know why.
- 22:24Speaker 1: Don't mean anything.
- 22:26Speaker 3: The Broncos ever since the Walton Penner group have taken over,
- 22:31Speaker 3: I've always ranked really high in this. They finished tenth
- 22:33Speaker 3: overall in this report card, but they got a's kind
- 22:37Speaker 3: of everywhere. Here's what I thought was interesting, though again
- 22:40Speaker 3: doesn't mean anything, but thought it was weird. They got
- 22:45Speaker 3: a's for home game, field, for dining area, for training room,
- 22:49Speaker 3: for training staff, weight room, strength coaches, defensive coordinator, special
- 22:54Speaker 3: teams coordinator. Even Darren Rizzy got inn a minus. Here's
- 22:56Speaker 3: what's funny. This was conducted from November two through December eleventh,
- 23:01Speaker 3: so Joe Lombardi was still the offensive coordinator.
- 23:03Speaker 2: He got a grade.
- 23:04Speaker 3: Of as whooh, do you know what the head coach
- 23:09Speaker 3: got B plus?
- 23:10Speaker 2: It was a B.
- 23:11Speaker 3: It was like it was the lowest grade of anything
- 23:14Speaker 3: that they had on here other than locker room. And
- 23:17Speaker 3: I'm just like, huh, weird. Again, not that it means anything,
- 23:22Speaker 3: but I do think that that's a little bit odd.
- 23:24Speaker 1: The Broncos had the only card that was turned in
- 23:27Speaker 1: where the owner had an A plus.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Yes and also very important in this and I could
- 23:33Speaker 3: see why. You know, the locker room gets a D.
- 23:36Speaker 3: But by the time they get to Dove Valley next year,
- 23:39Speaker 3: I bet you that's not gonna be a D anymore.
- 23:41Speaker 2: As Yeah, and that's what do you need in a
- 23:45Speaker 2: locker room?
- 23:46Speaker 1: You need a locker right maybe a little carpet. Yep,
- 23:51Speaker 1: you need a shower.
- 23:52Speaker 2: Okay, how do you like you showered?
- 23:54Speaker 1: Do you like the mass shower? Do you like the
- 23:56Speaker 1: curtain shower?
- 23:56Speaker 2: Like?
- 23:57Speaker 1: What kind of showers do they use?
- 23:58Speaker 3: Oh?
- 23:58Speaker 2: I mean I've I've showed howed in them all? Mass showers,
- 24:02Speaker 2: curtain shower. I don't know.
- 24:03Speaker 3: I guess a little privacy is good. What's a mass shower?
- 24:07Speaker 2: It's like when you have like one pole and like
- 24:09Speaker 2: five shower heads around and everybody stands around the shower.
- 24:13Speaker 2: You know, you mass shower?
- 24:16Speaker 3: What do you just get in there? There? It's wide
- 24:19Speaker 3: open and there's just water.
- 24:22Speaker 2: Prison.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a better term. Prison shower.
- 24:26Speaker 3: You guys, I've seen these like in when you stay
- 24:28Speaker 3: at a hotel they have these sometimes what's up with
- 24:31Speaker 3: the it's the glass but it's only halfway, Like you
- 24:36Speaker 3: can't close it entirely, you know what I'm talking about?
- 24:40Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no I don't get the halfway and water
- 24:43Speaker 1: goes everywhere.
- 24:44Speaker 2: I'm like this, you're talking to a road shower officionado
- 24:50Speaker 2: including road bed a ficionado, stripper pole beds? What what? What? Whatever?
- 24:56Speaker 2: I've seen it all and done it all right.
- 24:58Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 24:59Speaker 2: It's it all depends on, you know, different configurations and
- 25:02Speaker 2: are they in tubs, are they not in tubs? Do
- 25:05Speaker 2: you have the you know, semi circular shower curtain, is
- 25:08Speaker 2: it glasses? You know, all these different kinds of things.
- 25:10Speaker 2: I don't know. But my point is this. I remember
- 25:14Speaker 2: one year when the Vancouver Canucks they hired over the
- 25:21Speaker 2: span of years, after morning skate, they have a personal
- 25:24Speaker 2: chef that cooks for each player individually what they want
- 25:31Speaker 2: protein wise and so on and so forth. After morning skate,
- 25:34Speaker 2: they hired a sleep therapy consulting company. And Vancouver's way
- 25:41Speaker 2: up there, so I mean they fly da da da,
- 25:43Speaker 2: but trying to find the best bio rhythms and all
- 25:46Speaker 2: this kind of thing. They put several million dollars into
- 25:51Speaker 2: a new locker room that looks like a like Star Trek.
- 25:54Speaker 2: It's just gorgeous, right, big semi circular blah blah blah
- 25:58Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah, and they sucked ass.
- 26:02Speaker 3: Excuse my no, most I was just gonna say, you
- 26:06Speaker 3: know what's amazing about this list? Every year, the worst
- 26:09Speaker 3: teams are always at the top of this thing, and
- 26:11Speaker 3: the past teams are always at the bottom the Chimps
- 26:13Speaker 3: are twenty seventh.
- 26:14Speaker 1: You're so right, what about this theory that you could
- 26:18Speaker 1: be spoiled into mediocrity, that sometimes when everything is too easy,
- 26:25Speaker 1: too good, too abundant, you don't dig.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Yeah, way, yeah. So you're saying that that when I
- 26:35Speaker 3: go watch the Avs practice and I pass a Merry
- 26:37Speaker 3: go round a ballpit in an arcade room to go
- 26:41Speaker 3: see Nathan McKennon, maybe that makes it better.
- 26:43Speaker 2: Well, here's no, no, no, no, I think.
- 26:45Speaker 3: We all can admit that is one of the weirdest
- 26:47Speaker 3: things in the world, isn't it. That you're passing like
- 26:49Speaker 3: a merry go round? And then it's like, oh, McKinnon's
- 26:51Speaker 3: right there.
- 26:52Speaker 2: Believe me when I tell you, though, I've been to
- 26:54Speaker 2: a lot of different other rinks around the league summer.
- 26:58Speaker 2: Fancy talk about practice rings summer or not. If it
- 27:03Speaker 2: has a direct correlation on winning. It's always nice to
- 27:05Speaker 2: have perks, It's always nice to have I think, upgraded facilities,
- 27:11Speaker 2: you know, all that kind of thing. I remember the
- 27:12Speaker 2: first time I saw when the Texas Longhorns redid their
- 27:17Speaker 2: football practice facility, and I saw the inside of the
- 27:19Speaker 2: bathroom and every stall, every urinal. Urinal had a TV
- 27:25Speaker 2: above the urinal that was nicer than any TV in
- 27:28Speaker 2: my home. Yep. I'm like, hey, here's a college freshman
- 27:31Speaker 2: taking a whiz watching TV that's like four k uld
- 27:36Speaker 2: trip And I'm like, okay, but is it gonna make
- 27:39Speaker 2: you tackle better? You know, I get it.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Look no further than arenas into it. Domb is the
- 27:45Speaker 1: nicest arena I've ever seen. It doesn't necessarily mean they're
- 27:48Speaker 1: gonna win more games there. They're crappy arenas where people
- 27:52Speaker 1: win more games. It doesn't matter. We all love perks.
- 27:56Speaker 1: I mean, look at us, we're spoiled. We have the
- 28:00Speaker 1: nicest radio station probably in America.
- 28:03Speaker 2: You know, they did a pretty good job building this joint.
- 28:06Speaker 2: I would say, bosses, nice job. But does it make you?
- 28:13Speaker 2: Does it make you a better broadcaster?
- 28:15Speaker 3: Brett?
- 28:15Speaker 2: Are we doing a better show right this second than
- 28:17Speaker 2: we did back at the old place next to Shotguns? No,
- 28:21Speaker 2: I'm too spoiled.
- 28:22Speaker 3: Remember when my headphones never worked and had like bang
- 28:24Speaker 3: the top of the consoles, Remember that that was.
- 28:28Speaker 1: Remember when the chair was so beat up you couldn't
- 28:30Speaker 1: even sit on it anymore.
- 28:31Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, when.
- 28:34Speaker 2: We were at our best, it looked like it looked
- 28:36Speaker 2: like a flock of crows came in and just pecked
- 28:38Speaker 2: it to death. That was awesome.
- 28:40Speaker 3: But you'll remember, you guys, remember every day, like three
- 28:42Speaker 3: times a show, I went, Yes, I had to bang
- 28:45Speaker 3: the table because only one side of my headphone.
- 28:47Speaker 2: Yeah, it wore out over the year. So you're telling
- 28:49Speaker 2: me that the facilities got a bad grade or.
- 28:51Speaker 3: What was it? No, the facilities up. Well, No, the
- 28:53Speaker 3: locker room got a bad grade. That will change when
- 28:55Speaker 3: they have this new Douve Valley next year.
- 28:59Speaker 1: There's been a lot said about facilities and whether or
- 29:01Speaker 1: not they equate to wins and championships. It's hard to
- 29:05Speaker 1: argue in Denver given the fact that both teams have
- 29:09Speaker 1: won a championship. The Broncos are on the cusp of
- 29:12Speaker 1: a championship. At the end of the day, what does it?
- 29:15Speaker 1: How does it factor like the showering in a better
- 29:18Speaker 1: shower make you play better? What does it mean? What's
- 29:23Speaker 1: the end game here? The Chiefs had the worst possible
- 29:27Speaker 1: grades for facilities, for ownership, all of that, and they
- 29:32Speaker 1: ran a dynasty for a few years.
- 29:33Speaker 2: I'm telling you.
- 29:34Speaker 3: The Chiefs training camp is played at a college that
- 29:39Speaker 3: was in my conference. I've been in the locker room
- 29:43Speaker 3: that they are in. I know why they hate it.
- 29:46Speaker 3: I guess who've got the worst home game field by
- 29:48Speaker 3: the way, Yeah the Giants. Yeah, both fuses from what
- 29:54Speaker 3: they played on God, I mean that's been a topic.
- 29:58Speaker 2: I don't know. You know, I've never been to that state,
- 30:00Speaker 2: so I don't know what the turf.
- 30:01Speaker 1: It feels like, hard, it feels like the old Veterans
- 30:04Speaker 1: remember in Philly. Remember that.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Now I have been there, Brett. See, this is where
- 30:08Speaker 2: you youngins don't understand. I've been to the old Astrodome.
- 30:13Speaker 2: I've been to Veterans, the old Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia.
- 30:18Speaker 2: You know what it was, Brett. It was a thin
- 30:20Speaker 2: layer of vic what mashed grass on concrete. Yes, I'm
- 30:25Speaker 2: not even dude, I'm not even joking. There's no padding
- 30:29Speaker 2: in there. Bro, You're getting tackled on concrete on a
- 30:32Speaker 2: fake layer of thin grass. It was insane, dude, I'm
- 30:36Speaker 2: just looking through this insane. Every single team, for.
- 30:40Speaker 3: The most part, says their field sucks. Like every single
- 30:43Speaker 3: team there's I've seen two a's so far.
- 30:46Speaker 1: Well that's that's the league. That's players telling you they
- 30:49Speaker 1: want real grass. That's players telling you, you know, And
- 30:51Speaker 1: that's where the Broncos are better than most. The Broncos
- 30:53Speaker 1: replace their turf twice this season. Nobody does that, Vick.
- 30:57Speaker 2: When teams used to play in a moment, the Broncos
- 30:59Speaker 2: got a they're one of the a's.
- 31:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 31:01Speaker 2: So, by the way, Veterans Stadium, it was all artificial
- 31:05Speaker 2: turf except for the bases. For baseball, they had dirt.
- 31:09Speaker 2: They would just slim the dirt down and stick a
- 31:11Speaker 2: piece of turf over fake turf over yeah, over second base.
- 31:16Speaker 2: But they didn't even do that in San Francisco and Oakland. Dude,
- 31:18Speaker 2: they would literally play on the infield like yeah, I know,
- 31:23Speaker 2: you could most see the infield as they played.
- 31:26Speaker 3: I love ball.
- 31:27Speaker 2: I loved Janakowski kicking off the dirt. It feels like barbarianism,
- 31:30Speaker 2: but that's what it was.
- 31:31Speaker 1: There's a there's a line you cross from old and
- 31:34Speaker 1: nasty to vie. For example, two thousand and seven World Series,
- 31:38Speaker 1: I remember going from cors Field, which is luscious and
- 31:40Speaker 1: beautiful and luxurious. Everything about Cores is just a it's
- 31:43Speaker 1: a delicious ball.
- 31:44Speaker 2: It's a cathedral, it really is.
- 31:46Speaker 1: It's it's very well maintained, everything well groomed. I went
- 31:49Speaker 1: from there to Historic Fenway. Historic for a reason.
- 31:54Speaker 2: Because it's old.
- 31:55Speaker 1: It's old, yeah, and there's parts of it that's they're
- 31:58Speaker 1: nasty and they're like what is this? But nobody complains
- 32:02Speaker 1: because it crosses the line to vintage.
- 32:04Speaker 3: Well vic I when I went to a Notre Dame
- 32:06Speaker 3: game years ago when they played against Navy. I remember
- 32:09Speaker 3: I walked in the stadium and it felt like I
- 32:11Speaker 3: went to a time machine.
- 32:12Speaker 2: Yeah, And I remember I was sitting in there.
- 32:13Speaker 3: I was like, you couldn't give me one jumbo trona
- 32:15Speaker 3: here look at a replay. At that time though, I
- 32:20Speaker 3: was like, I can't see a replay in this place.
- 32:21Speaker 2: Really, it's all it's all about perspective. I grew up
- 32:26Speaker 2: going to old Candlestick Park in old Oakland Coliseum, the
- 32:31Speaker 2: one where recently before they moved to Sacramento of the
- 32:33Speaker 2: East had raccoons living in the ceiling. You remember that.
- 32:36Speaker 2: I remember it was was it the opposing play by
- 32:38Speaker 2: play booth Raccoons.
- 32:40Speaker 3: Fall Kavnar took over?
- 32:42Speaker 2: Yeah, the rats fell out or the rats the raccoons
- 32:44Speaker 2: fell out of the ceiling. Day those places were dumps
- 32:49Speaker 2: mm hmm. But when I lived in Chicago, going to
- 32:52Speaker 2: Wrigley Field technically dump but nostedal Yeah, exactly, fenway away.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Technically vic the old rod iron.
- 33:03Speaker 2: With the metal flaking, the peyton peeling off the metal,
- 33:06Speaker 2: the rod iron stanchions and whatnot. Oh dude, that's vintage nostalgia.
- 33:12Speaker 2: If now, if that's in Oakland, like this place is crack.
- 33:15Speaker 1: The funniest thing I've ever hysterical man, going to the
- 33:18Speaker 1: Oakland the old Oakland Coliseum where the Raiders play. They
- 33:24Speaker 1: they have a dugout where the players walk out of
- 33:26Speaker 1: the dugout. Basically they play baseball there. And in that dugout,
- 33:30Speaker 1: in the corner of the dugout, behind the door that
- 33:32Speaker 1: doesn't even have a hinge on it, there's a toilet.
- 33:35Speaker 1: And that toilet doesn't have a toilet seat.
- 33:38Speaker 2: It's one of those old.
- 33:39Speaker 1: Toilets that just sits there. And you know why it's there, Guys,
- 33:44Speaker 1: got a guy's gotta go. But there's not even a door. Yeah, dude,
- 33:49Speaker 1: what it's just.
- 33:49Speaker 3: Like one of those trenches that they built in like
- 33:52Speaker 3: old style castles, but you go to the top floor
- 33:55Speaker 3: and it just drops.
- 33:56Speaker 2: To the ground. Game of thron Yeah, the way last
- 34:00Speaker 2: last thing. My first time to Old Yankee Stadium, the
- 34:05Speaker 2: old Joy years and years and years and years and
- 34:07Speaker 2: years ago. I gotta go take a whiz. And of
- 34:11Speaker 2: course they had the old troughs.
- 34:14Speaker 1: Academy, I trough They still got them at the Academy,
- 34:17Speaker 1: and so I had to get the stands.
- 34:19Speaker 2: I had to I had to get on my cell phone.
- 34:21Speaker 2: They were kind of newish at the time, right, call
- 34:24Speaker 2: my dad, Dad, show them. No, I didn't know.
- 34:28Speaker 3: There's no phone cameras back in that long ago.
- 34:31Speaker 1: Taking photos and video in a trough would have been interesting.
- 34:36Speaker 2: I guess riots. I have no idea. I'm taking a
- 34:38Speaker 2: whiz in the trough at Old Yankee. I mean, but
- 34:40Speaker 2: this is quote nostalgia.
- 34:42Speaker 3: I don't know how to explain this to our women
- 34:45Speaker 3: there listening. Ping on ice is fun. I don't know
- 34:48Speaker 3: how else to put it. Well, there was no ice
- 34:50Speaker 3: on the stadium, but but yeah, I get what you're saying.
- 34:52Speaker 3: Ping on ice is just it's it's more enjoyable.
- 34:57Speaker 1: It's like it's it's my version of cartoon avalanche hockey.
- 35:02Speaker 2: Those are the new, the aluminum ones and all that. Fine,
- 35:05Speaker 2: This is old cast iron trough bro right, A man
- 35:10Speaker 2: saw much today exactly. Hey, Johnny, come on over here,
- 35:15Speaker 2: think wins in the guest.
- 35:17Speaker 3: That's my game though. It's like how many pieces of
- 35:19Speaker 3: ice can I melt?
- 35:20Speaker 1: And you aim at just one piece?
- 35:23Speaker 3: And then it's it's like, dude, it's like I'm in
- 35:25Speaker 3: a black Hawk helicopter.
- 35:26Speaker 2: I mowed one down. Bresh my god.
- 35:37Speaker 3: Hey, just quickly, can you guys guess who finished first
- 35:40Speaker 3: place overall in this report card?
- 35:42Speaker 1: What team? The Broncos? Nope, there were tenth Jaguars.
- 35:46Speaker 3: Now who the Dolphins, who are terrible at everything, who
- 35:52Speaker 3: have an owner who doesn't know his own coach's name.
- 35:55Speaker 1: Wait a minute, the Broncos had some immensely good great.
- 36:01Speaker 3: Jeff, Yeah, all right, a lot more to get through,
- 36:08Speaker 3: Ben de Nuci at nine twenty stick around. Yeah, Let
- 36:10Speaker 3: let that new Bruno ride now, like, let that new
- 36:12Speaker 3: Bruno ride. Turn it up, turn it up.
- 36:15Speaker 1: You say you have to get this new album? Can't
- 36:17Speaker 1: you just download it on Spotify?
- 36:19Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, vic I'm a record snob. Finyl baby,
- 36:26Speaker 3: turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, Let's
- 36:28Speaker 3: get it, get it, get it. Look if this doesn't
- 36:34Speaker 3: make you happy, then you're never gonna be happy. That's it. Oh,
- 36:38Speaker 3: use those tiny hands, Vic all right, I love it.
- 36:46Speaker 3: I'm gonna need more now, we're gonna need more of this?
- 36:48Speaker 3: What most don't you dare give me that looking?
- 36:50Speaker 2: Actually, you don't know. Do you know?
- 36:52Speaker 1: When Bruno Mars was fourteen years old, he and his
- 36:55Speaker 1: father slept in my brother's studio there in Denver and
- 36:58Speaker 1: did one of their first albums there.
- 37:00Speaker 3: Yeah he's fourteen, Yeah, I know he was.
- 37:04Speaker 2: When he was a kid, he was an Elvis impersonator.
- 37:06Speaker 3: Whole thing.
- 37:07Speaker 1: They came to Denver of all places, and they recorded
- 37:10Speaker 1: some stuff at his studio, and at that time, nobody
- 37:13Speaker 1: knew who he was or what he was.
- 37:14Speaker 2: Right, that's crazy. I mean, he's a phenomenal talent. It
- 37:17Speaker 2: just seems that that particular song we just played, it's
- 37:20Speaker 2: very upbeat, very uplifting, its happy song. I completely agree
- 37:23Speaker 2: with you. It just sounds an awful lot like fifty
- 37:26Speaker 2: other songs over the years, that's all.
- 37:30Speaker 1: Oh, so now you know what I mean when I
- 37:32Speaker 1: talk to you about your eighties hair raising, it's exactly
- 37:35Speaker 1: what he says.
- 37:36Speaker 2: I fully admit that my intuition, my judgment on that
- 37:41Speaker 2: matter is crap according to everybody. Also, I fully admit it.
- 37:44Speaker 2: I'm not casting judgment or anything of that nature. I'm
- 37:47Speaker 2: just simply making an observation. I know.
- 37:50Speaker 1: That's why music is always going to be subjective, and
- 37:52Speaker 1: that's why it's dangerous to throw that on this show
- 37:55Speaker 1: because it's a subjective thing. Everyone moves to different tunes.
- 38:00Speaker 3: You know, it's not subjective. Having Shae on the floor
- 38:06Speaker 3: tonight and having this be a tough game.
- 38:08Speaker 1: I knew he was coming back when they said maybe
- 38:11Speaker 1: a week. Last week they said maybe a week. I said,
- 38:14Speaker 1: you mean he's gonna be there for let me tell
- 38:16Speaker 1: you something. There's a there's a degree of competitiveness from
- 38:22Speaker 1: the Okac Thunder, not even a degree. They they want
- 38:26Speaker 1: to stick it to the Nuggets. They do, you could tell.
- 38:29Speaker 1: You could tell they played that. They try to play
- 38:32Speaker 1: their best against the Nuggets, and tonight it will be
- 38:35Speaker 1: a challenge. They won't have Jalen Williams, but they have
- 38:38Speaker 1: Shaye back.
- 38:39Speaker 3: Well they aren't. I mean, it's probably has a little
- 38:42Speaker 3: bit to do with the Nuggets. It also has to
- 38:44Speaker 3: do with the Spurs. After winning eleven in a row,
- 38:46Speaker 3: are now one and a half games back of Okac
- 38:49Speaker 3: for first place. Remember Vick. Before the All Star break,
- 38:52Speaker 3: we were like, yeah, maybe the Nuggets can catch the Spurs.
- 38:54Speaker 3: I don't think they're catching the Spurs. I don't think
- 38:57Speaker 3: so at all. Like the Spurs. It's a horse race
- 39:00Speaker 3: now for who's gonna get first and second in this
- 39:02Speaker 3: division or this conference. And I think they're highly motivated
- 39:06Speaker 3: because they're watching them surge in the standings.
- 39:10Speaker 1: I think you might be resigned to the fact that
- 39:12Speaker 1: your second round series might be on the road if
- 39:18Speaker 1: you don't take your business.
- 39:19Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it's it's gonna be like I hate to
- 39:24Speaker 3: say this, but do you think the Nuggets can go
- 39:26Speaker 3: on a run like the Spurs are going on right now?
- 39:27Speaker 1: Second eleven in a row, eleven in a row. You're right,
- 39:31Speaker 1: you know it's crazy.
- 39:32Speaker 2: It's crazy because they used to do that, and we
- 39:34Speaker 2: used to think they could do that. No problem with
- 39:37Speaker 2: this version of the Nuggets. On any given night, You're like,
- 39:40Speaker 2: goll Lee, are they gonna play defense? Are they not?
- 39:43Speaker 2: Is Joker gonna be aggressive? Rosy not. I'm gonna ask you, guys,
- 39:46Speaker 2: who's banged up, who's in, who's out.
- 39:47Speaker 3: Who's what?
- 39:50Speaker 1: A very simple question. This is a very simple question,
- 39:53Speaker 1: because at the start of the season, if I had
- 39:55Speaker 1: raised this question to you, you probably answer it differently
- 39:57Speaker 1: than you would tonight. The start of the season, if
- 40:00Speaker 1: I said, hey, you think the Nuggets can win at
- 40:03Speaker 1: Okasey with that assemblage of talent, with that roster, no, yeah, yeah.
- 40:09Speaker 2: No, I think of course. Wait wait wait, wait, you
- 40:11Speaker 2: mean with who's a similar to what at the beginning
- 40:14Speaker 2: of the year and the beginning Oh my bad, Sorry,
- 40:17Speaker 2: I guess I didn't pay attention to that part of it.
- 40:19Speaker 2: Then yes, the answer is yes. I thought, you know what,
- 40:22Speaker 2: if it comes down to the Western Conference Final, I
- 40:24Speaker 2: like the Nuggets. I give them more than a puncher's
- 40:27Speaker 2: chance to defeat Oklahoma City.
- 40:29Speaker 1: I'm trying to be kind, but tonight it would be
- 40:33Speaker 1: a welcome, pleasant surprise to see the Nuggets win at okase.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and look, they're capable of doing that. Still
- 40:43Speaker 3: the question I have. They didn't say exactly what was
- 40:47Speaker 3: wrong with Jamal, but it sounded well, I know that,
- 40:50Speaker 3: but it sounded a lot like a neurovirus thing to me.
- 40:53Speaker 3: If that's the case, I don't know if he's gonna
- 40:55Speaker 3: be good enough to play tonight. Takes a toll on you. Yeah,
- 40:58Speaker 3: it does take a all. So that's also a BEG factory.
- 41:01Speaker 1: Beware of sick or injured Jamal Murray. That's when he
- 41:03Speaker 1: has his best games. I mean, take a look at
- 41:07Speaker 1: his history. Agreed, any issues, he comes back the next
- 41:10Speaker 1: game and goes off VIC.
- 41:11Speaker 2: I know they're an eight and a half point underdog.
- 41:13Speaker 2: I get that that's a big number. It is, they're
- 41:17Speaker 2: an eight and a half point dog. But why, I mean,
- 41:22Speaker 2: shouldn't shouldn't we consider the Denver Nuggets a team capable
- 41:26Speaker 2: of going in and winning that game.
- 41:30Speaker 1: What have they done in recent weeks to convince you
- 41:34Speaker 1: they can't?
- 41:34Speaker 2: No, understood and completely agreed. I'm just saying, man, why
- 41:40Speaker 2: are we so feeling the Nuggets used to be able
- 41:44Speaker 2: to go into anywhere and win anywhere. Not that they would,
- 41:46Speaker 2: I'm just saying they had the capabilities of do it,
- 41:48Speaker 2: and now we're like, God, it's gonna take a freaking
- 41:51Speaker 2: miracle from nowhere.
- 41:52Speaker 1: They've won twenty one games down the road, tied for
- 41:54Speaker 1: the most roads.
- 41:56Speaker 2: Why are we sitting here on a Friday morning at
- 41:58Speaker 2: seven fifty two? Crap, they're gonna That's.
- 42:00Speaker 1: Why I'm raising the question why? Why is that? Is
- 42:03Speaker 1: it just us? Are we just I don't. Are we
- 42:06Speaker 1: feeble pessimists? Are we scared of our own shadow?
- 42:09Speaker 3: What is it? I don't feel that way. I think
- 42:11Speaker 3: the Nuggets can win tonight, Okay.
- 42:13Speaker 1: I mean where would you place the chances of winning
- 42:15Speaker 1: one to ten?
- 42:18Speaker 3: Like five? Okay?
- 42:21Speaker 2: No, I don't think this game is fifty I don't.
- 42:24Speaker 2: I think it's more like I think it's more like
- 42:26Speaker 2: thirty eight point six percent. That's what it feels like
- 42:29Speaker 2: to me. Well, it feels to me like this in
- 42:31Speaker 2: a game like this, so much has to go right
- 42:33Speaker 2: for the Nuggets to beat OKAC on the road that
- 42:35Speaker 2: it's almost a joke.
- 42:37Speaker 3: I don't think so at all. No, I hope that's
- 42:39Speaker 3: what it feels like. This is assuming Jamal is playing.
- 42:42Speaker 2: I'm like a five.
- 42:45Speaker 3: Now. Look, if you're asking me in a seven game series,
- 42:48Speaker 3: do I think that Oklahoma City wins it?
- 42:50Speaker 2: Right now?
- 42:51Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 42:51Speaker 2: I do.
- 42:53Speaker 3: But if you guys remember the Nuggets weren't exactly world
- 42:56Speaker 3: beaters last year, and they had less depth than they
- 42:59Speaker 3: have now, and they had three guys that are playing
- 43:03Speaker 3: through pretty brutal injuries, and they took them to seven games, agreed,
- 43:07Speaker 3: but they also.
- 43:08Speaker 2: Had a more consistent mindset.
- 43:10Speaker 3: And Oklahoma City did the same thing last year where
- 43:12Speaker 3: they breezed through the regular season.
- 43:14Speaker 2: I just think it's a different animal. If they had
- 43:16Speaker 2: vict they had a more consistent mindset and a more
- 43:19Speaker 2: angst ridden mindset than they do right now. On any
- 43:21Speaker 2: given night, it's I'll let it go or now we're
- 43:24Speaker 2: gonna buckle down or let it go.
- 43:26Speaker 3: I mean win. You would be surprised if the Nuggets
- 43:29Speaker 3: went tonight unfortunately. I think I shouldn't be.
- 43:34Speaker 2: Plus out. What's weird about this.
- 43:38Speaker 1: I like their chances better on the road at okay
- 43:40Speaker 1: See than at home against OKAC, which is absolute lunacy,
- 43:43Speaker 1: but it's the truth. I think they relaxed more. I
- 43:47Speaker 1: think it's a different team on the road. If the
- 43:49Speaker 1: Knuggets played defense the way they did against Boston, if
- 43:53Speaker 1: they navigate through picks, if they really show that intensity,
- 43:57Speaker 1: win because Oklahoma City is a lot of that style. Man,
- 44:01Speaker 1: they walk the ball around and take a lot of threes.
- 44:03Speaker 2: That's what they do.
- 44:04Speaker 1: And then you have to deal with Shae, who guards Shay.
- 44:07Speaker 1: What sucks in this game because they didn't have in
- 44:10Speaker 1: the last game. What sucks is not not having Peyton
- 44:13Speaker 1: Watson to guard Shay because he really is a great
- 44:16Speaker 1: cover for him. They didn't have him the last time
- 44:18Speaker 1: they played them as well, and having Peyton Watson in
- 44:22Speaker 1: his length is really a difference maker against Shay. So
- 44:28Speaker 1: who guards I don't, I don't know. I don't probably
- 44:31Speaker 1: CB to start. I don't think it's Jones on them.
- 44:34Speaker 2: Here's what I just don't think it's unfair to ask
- 44:39Speaker 2: the Nuggets to go win a road game like if you,
- 44:40Speaker 2: if you truly are a if you're a championship, it's
- 44:44Speaker 2: not unfair to ask them to go into Okay see
- 44:47Speaker 2: and actually pull out of But are you on point?
- 44:50Speaker 3: Are you just out of that category with them?
- 44:51Speaker 2: Right now? I feel like I feel like I am
- 44:53Speaker 2: and I don't want to be. But is it unfair?
- 44:55Speaker 1: Is it unfair to ask him to do that without
- 44:56Speaker 1: the two best defenders?
- 44:59Speaker 3: Oh, it's it makes it more difficult, but they can
- 45:01Speaker 3: still win.
- 45:03Speaker 1: I understand. But this is a you know, it's a
- 45:05Speaker 1: game of matchups. We talk about it all the time,
- 45:07Speaker 1: and the matchup they need in this game is Peyton
- 45:10Speaker 1: Watson against Shay gild just Alexander Peyton Watson's not playing.
- 45:13Speaker 1: That's a huge, huge problem. Huge His length gives him problems.
- 45:18Speaker 3: Well, give give Bruce a lot of minutes. Like here,
- 45:21Speaker 3: here's why I think this game should be. We know
- 45:22Speaker 3: what okay, So he's gonna do defensively, They're gonna smack
- 45:25Speaker 3: and hit and force the refs to blow the whistle,
- 45:28Speaker 3: and the reps won't want to do that every possession.
- 45:30Speaker 3: I think you need to do the same thing on
- 45:31Speaker 3: the opposite side that I think Bruce Brown and Spencer
- 45:33Speaker 3: Jones need to go out and play match whatever sort
- 45:36Speaker 3: of physicality that they're bringing on the other side.
- 45:39Speaker 2: We can get back to this in a bit.
- 45:40Speaker 3: Games at seven point forty two tonight, to be exact
- 45:44Speaker 3: right here, Altitude Sports Radio ninety two to five, Kiefer
- 45:48Speaker 3: is going to join us today twenty to talk about cartoons.
- 45:51Speaker 3: It's cool with that. Ben Denucci's gonna join us at
- 45:54Speaker 3: nine to twenty.
- 45:55Speaker 1: But but tell Keifer Nellie, tell him he has to
- 45:58Speaker 1: do the entire interview in him his cartoon voice, and
- 46:02Speaker 1: that same demeanor, that same he has to talk to
- 46:05Speaker 1: us as if we're children, exactly that same narration. I
- 46:08Speaker 1: refuse to talk to adult Keifer yes, No, Kiefer is
- 46:11Speaker 1: an adult where the kids.
- 46:16Speaker 3: Want to bring him on, should call him dad pop
- 46:19Speaker 3: up hy pop pop. Hey, there's something that's been discussed
- 46:28Speaker 3: that I think would be great and I have no
- 46:31Speaker 3: idea how this could ever happen. We'll get to it
- 46:33Speaker 3: next
