  Speaker 1: This is Mosher, Lombardi, and Kane on demand.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Listen live every weekday morning from 7 to 10 on
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Altitude Sports Radio 92.5 and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: The Nuggets got to do something, folks. I don't know
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: what it is, but they got to do something. They
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: get blown out by the Warriors. Final tonight from Denver, 134-114.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: We talked about it in the locker room after the game,
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: just the physicality. I don't think we took a foul.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: We were switching up on anybody, and that leads to slipping.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: It leads to 2v1s, 3v2s in the backside, so it
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: was a bad night in that way, in every way.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: I thought they shot the ball really well when we shrunk,
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: but that wasn't the issue. It was all that small,
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: small stuff, and it's got to be something we work on.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: Some of the young guys haven't seen it before, and
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: I thought, Behind it, our rotations weren't good enough throughout
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: the first half. And when you start giving effort later
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: in the game to rotate behind mistakes, it's too late.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: So it's got to be a lot better.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: It's early. It's early. I feel weird, though, about both
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: the Nuggets and the Avs right now. Really weird. And
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: There's something that just, I don't know if you guys
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: feel it. Like, I'm a body language guy. And the
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: body language is just, something's not sitting right with me.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: We're three games in. I understand. We're three games in.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: But there's something about it that just, I, mm-mm. Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: And it just feels very much a malaise to start
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: this season. When the game ramps up, it feels like
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: you can't match the intensity. The best player on the
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: floor last night was a rookie for the Warriors. Joker
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: doesn't seem totally right to start the year. I don't know, Vic.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: I don't know how you felt after the game, but
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: I have this odd sort of feeling sitting in the
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: pit of my stomach that I can't shake. And it's
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: kind of applying to both teams, and maybe that's why
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: it's being amplified right now because I'm getting that with
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: the Avs too. But what do you think?
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: I get this feeling. And I could be wrong. I
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: get the feeling that both teams are going through the motions.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: It's sort of that too cool for school. We're playoff teams.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: This regular season crap. We don't need to go through
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: this again. Let's just fast forward to April. I don't
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: feel like doing this right now.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: That's the feeling I get.
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I don't feel like doing this right now.
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: The thing is, I don't know what you feel about
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: the Avs. I don't know if the Nuggets are good
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: enough to do that game. You know what I mean?
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: I don't know if they're good enough to play. Like
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: they'll make the playoffs. I'm not saying that, but I don't,
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: I think you can apply this to both teams. And
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I don't want to, I want to focus on the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Nuggets only because they've got different issues in my opinion. Yes.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: But you could make the case that both teams at
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: times look old and slow at times look old and
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: slow with, with the nuggets last night, the word, and
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: you use the word, I used it on the post
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: game show, the malaise, the malaise. It's just like a general,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: it's a cloud of, does anybody want to do something?
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Anything.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: And we're three games in. So it's very difficult for
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: me to do that thing.
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I get it, but I don't, I don't like the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: feeling in the pit of my stomach. I don't, I
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: don't like it. It's, It's a weird sort of, what
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: is this, motion? And I don't know if you've had
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: that feeling yet with the abs, but I got that
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: feeling last night. What is this?
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: You know what it looks like, Vic? And Brett and
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I were talking about this before we came on the air.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Nobody looks like they're having any fun. Yeah.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: At all.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Everything looks like this is my job. I'm breaking big
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: rocks into little rocks.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: They don't want to be here type of stuff.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: And that's for both teams on any given night. You
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? That's what it was certainly the
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: other night for the Avs in Nashville. It's like nobody's
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: having fun. They're not enjoying playing the game. It's grinding
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: on them. And the Nuggets last night, Vic, I watched
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: that entire thing, and I watched the Warriors get better
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: as the damn game went on. And I'm like, they're
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: just not enjoying what they're doing at all.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: Can I give you an example? Because I know this
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: can drive some people nuts. It drives me nuts sometimes.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: But Steph Curry only took eight shots last night. He
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: hit all of them, but only took eight shots. He
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: gets an and one, and he kind of gets it
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: right in front of, like, that front row Nuggets crowd, right?
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: And he does, like, a little dance or something like
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: that and sort of shows off.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: But he does it all the time. You also criticize
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: him for doing that too much.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: But Vic, I do. But that's a guy who's having fun.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: Like he's having fun. The Nuggets will hit a shot
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: that leads to like a timeout, like a big shot.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: Leads to a timeout. Hey, Steve Kerr, let's get this team. Hey,
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: stop the bleeding here. And the Nuggets just kind of
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: walk back. Hey, good shot, buddy.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Good shot. I don't know.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: There's just something about that. That playing with joy or
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: being a little bit too cool or that kind of stuff.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: And let's be honest. Again, caveat everything. We're three games in, blah, blah, blah.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: Joker doesn't look totally right either. I know he had
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: 35 and 15 and 10. We know when Joker plays
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: well and when he doesn't. He doesn't look like the
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: best player on the planet right now. He just doesn't.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Jason and Bill after the game last night also made
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: another observation that AG doesn't look healthy.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: No.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: And then he gets pissed and he gets tossed from
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: the game. Like at least he shows a little bit
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: of fire there.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: I just, I don't want to make too much of
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: this three games into the season. And we can talk
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: about the injuries. Like, Hey, you're missing your two of
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: your best shooters and cam Johnson, Jillian Strother.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: But that doesn't account for giving up one 34, bro.
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: Well, I was going to say, and you're missing two
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: of your best defensive guys and Spencer Jones and alpha Diallo.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: And I know that injuries for the nuggets because of
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: their lack of depth hits them harder than maybe some
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: other teams. I will also tell you, Oklahoma City just
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: lost J-Dub and Case and Wallace for like the year,
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: and they beat Phoenix last night.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and A.J. Mitchell came up and just schooled everybody.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Do you know A.J. Mitchell, the second-round pick? Do you
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: know what his record is as a starter when he
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: is in? He's infused into the starting lineup in Oklahoma City.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: Do you know what his career record is as a starter?
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have it right off the tip of my tongue. Yeah,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I've been looking up A.J. Mitchell my entire life. I
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: live my life by the A.J. Mitchell code. So yeah,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the record is they're 17-1. 26-1. Damn.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: The best record that many games as a starter in
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: NBA history. So they just have an answer for everything.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: They don't lose the push. They don't lose the I
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: don't know what that is, but I knew this season
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: would be a difficult one because of the financial ramifications
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: and all that. I knew that. I knew that. And
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: we're three games in, and they can save themselves, but
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: they're also a 23-point comeback away from being 0-3. That's
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: the reality here.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: And, Vic, it would be one thing if it was
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: the same old story, if they're cap strong. Okay, got it.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: So they can't fill out depth the way they want to.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Guess what? The bench hasn't been your problem throughout these
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: first three games. The starters have been the ones getting beat.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: And what I don't want to hear is, well, you know,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: you're missing Cam. You're missing. Dude, you played a team
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: last night that's missing Jimmy Butler, Chris Steps, Porzingis. They're missing, like,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: guys who went to All-Star games.
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: So, no, no, no, no. Are you with me on that?
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: Of course.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no on that. No on that. I'm going to
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: put a hard no on that. So, they're going to
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: have to look in. Inside and figure out what they
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: want to do this season. Because the malaise, which is
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: a perfect word to apply to what we saw last night.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: That's a very good word, malaise.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: And, you know, we talk about fan interaction. The fans
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: went quiet last night. It was more like.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: Vic, can I tell you something? In watching on TV.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: First of all, every time Curry made a bucket, I
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: didn't know which team scored. Because that's the Curry effect.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: That happens in every arena.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: Okay, but hang on a second. I'm so glad you
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: brought this up because this is how I felt. There
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: was a moment late in the game. It was, I
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: don't know, nine minutes left in the fourth quarter or
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: something like that. The Nuggets are on the verge of like,
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: we're going to make one more push or the backups
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: are coming in and we're just conceding the game. So
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: Adelman calls a timeout. Out of the timeout, Nuggets have
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: the basketball and what happens? You guys remember? Yeah, 24-second violation.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: They took a 24-second violation. Couldn't even get a shot up.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: That's the exact moment where I'm like, ah, here come
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: the boos. And they didn't. And that felt even weirder
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: to me. Just being honest. It's like when Joker said that,
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: you could feel the crowd was like, I want to
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: voice my displeasure in the game. But dad said I'm
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: not allowed to. And I'm like, Moj, if dad says,
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: if you talk back to your mother one more time,
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: I'm going to get the belt.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: And then.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: Dad goes back to work and mom starts firing off
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: Marlboros inside the house. You're like, I don't think she's
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: supposed to be doing that, but I don't think I
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: can say anything. That's how it felt to me. It's
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: like the crowd was almost like, I know I hate this,
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: but I guess I'm not allowed to say anything about it.
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: It was more weird than just booing because it was
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: an odd silence there.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think the, and it's hard for me
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: to make this conclusion because I don't know what's going
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: on inside the heads of players. And I'm going on
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: this road trip. We leave today, New Orleans tomorrow night,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: the team that is still winless, Phoenix on a Friday night,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: both very winnable games. Phoenix isn't that good right now.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: They lost at OKC. New Orleans is still winless. So
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: these are two games that are winnable games. Correct? Winnable games.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: I just want to see the want to. I want
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: to see that there's no separation. I haven't seen separation.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Like they got a lead early and that's when you
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: have a chance to go. Let's take that lead and
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: let's just pound these guys into oblivion. They don't have
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: that second gear going right now. Whatever that gear is
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: that Let's separate ourselves in this game and let these
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: fools know they're not going to come in here and win.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: And that was something, you know, Jay Rich talked about
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: that a lot last night. They're not explosive. Occasionally you'll
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: get a dunk. We saw the rookie dunk line, the
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Trevin Brazil dunk. You'll see an AG oop. But I'm
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: talking about consistent explosiveness, taking the ball and pushing it
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: down the court and playing fast. It's not there. It's
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: not there.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: And I know you hinted towards this earlier. You think
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: that's age?
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Even Jamal Murray said
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: it afterwards. Jamal Murray, last night, his press conference was
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: actually very revealing. He had a long answer to a
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: question about what's wrong. He talked about defense, about how,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: you know, defense takes skill as well, and we're lacking
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: some skill defensively. And I found that very interesting.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: Spencer Jones and Diallo being out, is that what he's
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: hinting at?
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but... They've got to account for themselves, too. The
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: guys who are actually on the floor. Even if they're
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: not the world's best defenders. Yeah, exactly. I'll tell you
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: what sort of bothered me. The Warriors threw guys into
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: the game that I don't know.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know who that is. I don't know who
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: that is. A rookie put 31-12. The numbers that Yaxa
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Lindenborg put up last night.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: He's the best player on the floor.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: He's a future star.
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: He's legit. He's 11th overall.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: He might be, well, I'm not going to say he's
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: the best player in the draft because that's crazy, but
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying that this guy has future star written
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: all over him, his personality and his game.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: That fine first round pick, high first round pick. This
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: stupid name, anytime he enters the floor against the Nuggets,
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: always something, like he always does something.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Who is it? Yang!
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: No matter who he plays for Utah, golden state.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Uh, he's been trying to come here for years. He's,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: he's been begging to play on this roster and he
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: probably has a personal.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You're kidding.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: Uh-huh.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: That guy's been around for a while.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: He's been wanting to play here.
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: Also. I haven't watched the warriors all year. So I
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: didn't know that pod Jemski just got the clay Thompson haircut.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: And now it looks like Timo clay Thompson that bothered
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: me too. Um, I just, everything about that game, Vic,
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: it just, it, and again, it's compounding because of what
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: I witnessed last time with the Avs and multiple times
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: this year with the Avs. There feels like there's just
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: a lack of oomph and uninspired play that happens way
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: too often.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Uninspired's another good word. I mean, we come up with
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: all kinds of words this morning. Malaise is the one
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I like the most. A general malaise. Uninspired's a good one.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: You know, the one word that nobody wants to hear,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: because if you apply that word, if you appeal to
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: that word, those are fighting words. And you know the word.
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: You know the word.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I've heard a lot of people say it. And there
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: were times where they looked it. But you know the word.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: What?
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: That word?
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: You don't want to use that word. Because that is
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: a direct. You want to push a button?
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Use that word.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: That's the word. Soft. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: We did not say that. Listen, man. I don't know.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I would be lying to you all if I thought things,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm not going to sit here game three
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: and say, well, it's early. Don't worry about it. I'm
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: not doing that.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: Me neither.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not doing that. I see something that I don't.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: My radar's up. My antennae. And I don't know what
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: that is or how you fix that. I don't know.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: It has nothing to do with injuries, what I see. Nothing.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: It has nothing to do with personnel. It's a general...
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Look outside this morning in Denver, Colorado. What do you see?
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: What do you see in Denver?
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: Dark, overcast.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Well, we have fog here.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: Oh, dude, I drove through. It looked like Gettysburg in.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: My drive-in this morning. Yeah, exactly right. It looked like
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: Civil War fog. We have fog. It looked like I'm
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: in London this morning. That's what I see with the
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Nuggets right now. A general fog. And I don't know
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: how it lifts itself.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Your hockey club better lift it out tomorrow night.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you that much.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: Adam Schefter will join us at 9.20 this morning.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: 303-504-0925.
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: Get more into this as we go along today, along
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: with some comments from Sean Payton yesterday. We'll get to
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: all that next. All right, let's all just take a
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: deep breath here. Just a deep breath. We're talking about
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: this more during the break. I can't, I don't want
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: to sound panicky here three games into the season, but it's,
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: I need one of these two teams that play at
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: ball arena to give me a little bit of life here.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: It's just, I need it. It's early in the year.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: The seasons are going now. I was excited. I need
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: somebody to make me, give me a little bit of
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: a boost, please.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: I need that. Need your booster chair. I need mine
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: at all times. When I don't have my booster chair,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: I am lost.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Hey, can I ask you a question? This is completely
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: on the side. We're going to get the football, right,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Sean Payton?
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: Yes, and I have something to think about heading into
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: this week.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go ahead.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Why in Paris did the Pittsburgh Steelers dress up as
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: Peaky Blinders?
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: It's a great question.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Maybe it was explained to me they were the visiting team,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and so they wanted to play the role of the
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Peaky Blinders to come in there and steal everything.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: I don't know. That sounds like a great excuse.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: That's a freaking stupid excuse.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Or maybe whoever came up with that concept didn't realize
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: that Peaky Blinders was based in Birmingham, England.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: How could they not?
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: Oh, you don't know those French guys that go, oh, right, right.
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: I don't know if people quite understand. Like, this is
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: a big game.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: I just don't like a lack of awareness in that
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: situation bothers me.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: I'll say this, they look sharp.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: No, they look great.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: They look sharp.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: If you're going for the Tommy Shelby look, you nailed it.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: That ain't Paris, bro.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: But hang on a second.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: What's that hat called again that they're wearing? I call it,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: what is that?
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: I call it a newsies hat, but.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: So if you wear a hat like that, you could
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: be wearing anything. You could be wearing flip-flops and your
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: pinky blinders just because you're a derby. Thank you very much, Flax.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Derby hat.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Not a derby.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: It's not a derby?
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: No.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: It's not a derby.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: What is it?
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: The cop from Ireland wore a derby.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: They got like the brims all the way around. They're
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: like circular, but they get the brim.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: All the way around.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: It's a scally cap. Yeah, it's like the Baker Boy
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: cap or whatever, you know. Yeah. News Boy cap, Baker
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Boy cap, that's.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: What it is. What role does it serve? Like, why
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: would you wear that?
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: It goes on top of your head. That's the role
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: it serves. I don't know, Vic.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Ask Hastings, man.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: He rocks those from time to time. He usually has.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: A button on it, too, that you could expand the
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: button in the front. So what role does that play?
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know. The piggy binders, remember they put razor
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: blades in there so they could slash guys with it?
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: So it says, besides the obvious reasons of keep the
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: sun out of your eyes, keep the rain out of
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: your eyes, that sort of thing.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Keep the heat on your head.
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: They're typically for breathable, warm materials like wood, wool, tweed.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: Cotton suitable for both cold winters and mild summers. And
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: it was a fashion thing for blue collar people back
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: in the day.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Gotcha.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: So anyway, so listen, we all know a game against
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: the chiefs is a big game, right? We're all very
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: aware of this. I don't think we understand the gravity
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: of what's taking place this weekend because it's still in
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: October and it doesn't feel like playoff football yet. Guys,
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: this is a massive game. This is the difference between
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: you potentially winning the division and the Chiefs kind of
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: running away with it, honestly. Like the Chiefs, their schedule
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: gets very tough moving forward. And I got a stat
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: about strength of schedule we'll get to in a second.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: But if the Chiefs win this weekend, they have the
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: tiebreaker over you. They will be 4-0 in divisional play
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: already this season, not to mention 6-1 and two games
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: ahead of you for the division lead. This feels like,
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: because the Raiders aren't winning the division, and sure as
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: hell the Chargers aren't, this is a game for the
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: division already this early in the season. Now, you win,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: you're going to be in the driver's seat, but it
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: doesn't mean that you're taking it. If the Chiefs win,
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: they are very likely taking the AFC West this weekend already. Like,
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: that is some late December implications that we're getting around Halloween.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: And just go ahead and look at the numbers. The
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: Chiefs' schedule stiffens up. You might have a chance.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: Their schedule stiffens up big time.
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: You might have a chance to come back and get them, but, Moj,
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: you are going to be so far behind the eight
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: ball in both head-to-head, they take 2-0 against you, and
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: divisional play, they're on the track to go undefeated.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you finish with the same record, obviously they're
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: going to take the division. But they still have, so
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: they have the Broncos this week, right? They'll beat up
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: on the Jets at home, fine. But they're at the Falcons,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: they'll beat up on the Cardinals. But they're at the Bills,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: at the Rams, at the Bengals three weeks in a row.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: That ain't nothing to sneeze at, man. That's going to
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: be tough for them. And then they get the Patriots
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: at home and the Niners at home.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: The remaining strength of schedule, they have the fifth hardest
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: schedule remaining in the league, the Chiefs do. The Broncos, conversely,
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: have the third easiest schedule remaining.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: What a turning point game this is going to be
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Sunday for the division race. It really is. I mean,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: what a narrative-changing game, right? It can be. If the
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Broncos can tackle Sunday, and I know they can because
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: they didn't show much in the opener, but just tackling
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: will change the outcome of this game dramatically. The fact
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: that it's in Denver will change the outcome of this
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: game dramatically. Those two things... I guarantee it's not going
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: to be a blowout. You ain't going to see the
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: same score you saw in Kansas City. That ain't happening.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: No, I think that, Vic, surprisingly on a Tuesday, I'm
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: feeling pretty dang good about this game.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: So am I. So am I. I'm with you, Moshe.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: I'm just feeling pretty dang good.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: And I don't think I've ever felt that way against
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: a Kansas City team, even last year when they had
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: to go there against their eighth-string quarterback.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: My loins don't talk to me the way yours talk
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: to you, but I just feel good. On this Tuesday,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: I just feel good about this. You're good. Well, here's
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: why you should.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: In the last 17 home games in the regular season
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: in Denver, the Broncos have won 16 of them. Dating
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: back three years, including the postseason, what the Broncos' record
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: at home is?
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: 21-4.
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: You have a massive home field advantage. And yes, I
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: think part of it has to do with altitude. Part
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: of it has to do with all the other stuff
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: that goes into just being at home, comfortability. Honestly? I
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: think it's the crowd. I think the crowd is the
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: huge difference maker.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Well, I think it's the defense more than anything.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: But they feed off of the energy of the crowd.
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: You've got a killer defense, bro.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Let's be honest about it.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: But, Moj, what makes the defense different at home than
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: it does on the road? They're pretty killer everywhere. Your
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: home record is insane. Nobody's got a record like that
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: over the last couple of years.
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: Nobody.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Nobody.
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: And I do think there's just an environment thing mixed
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: in with maybe some altitude that the Broncos just, they
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: take the hold of people at home. And I know
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: the Chiefs are favored to win this game by one
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: and a half. I think the Broncos should be. I
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: really do. And I think that last week you found
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: some comfortability in your offense. Maybe you got a little
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: bit more confidence. The other thing is Sean Payton, was
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: talking about Jonah Coleman. It's quick, but he said this
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: about him.
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: Look, he played well. The touches he had were explosive.
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: And like anything else, I think it's something you earn.
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: He's done a good job of that.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: You know, I was thinking about this. Here's the difference,
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: I think, between Jonah Coleman and the other running backs
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: that you have, at least in the running game.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: R.J.
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: Harvey has proven, and we saw it last week, that
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: you get him in open space in the pass game,
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: he can make some guys miss and break off a
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: big one. Didn't it feel to you when Jonah Coleman
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: was running the football, there was a chance that run
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: could go for 40 yards? Like, if he found just
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: an open hole, he could take.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: It for 40.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: I suppose, yeah, I suppose.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: He looked like a spring. Like a spring, you know,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: ready to go.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: But again, you're talking about a Cardinals defense that came
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: into the game not good. Giving up a lot of points.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: They gave up exactly the amount of points they give
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: up every single week.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: I don't care about the opposition. The same amount of.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Yards on the ground they give up every single week.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: They're not very good.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: But he's referring to just how the running back looks
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: in the open field.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: No, I agree with that. I agree. But I want
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: to see... Out of Jonah Coleman, because he's been out
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: and really hasn't played, I want to see.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: Some consistency week to week against better teams. That's all
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: I'm saying.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: He's your starting running back. He's your featured back now. Great.
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: That's great.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: It's over. Great. I don't know what you're watching, and
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: I'm sure J.K. Dobbins is not happy with it. He
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: was unhappy. But your featured running back is a rookie
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: named Jonah Coleman.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: It's done. The modern pro sports mantra is, I don't
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: care about your feelings. I care about dubs. That's the
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: way it's got to be.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: And there could be various excuses as to why. I mean,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I'm sure if you're JK, you're sitting there going, well,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: wait a minute. I had to do it against better defenses.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: This guy comes back and he just takes the job.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, thems are the breaks, I guess. I don't
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: know what to tell you. But moving forward, you tell me.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Who's your featured running back?
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Listen, I like JK.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Rose, who's your featured running back?
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: I think it's the rookie.
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: I don't think there's a think about it. It just is.
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: And I think, listen to this answer again. So the
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: question to Peyton was, Jonah Coleman's game last week, and
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: what's next for him?
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: Look, he played well. The touches he had were explosive.
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: And like anything else, I think it's something you earn.
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: He's done a good job of that.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: I don't think he's going to say that he's our
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: starting running back or whatever. I do think that he's
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: probably playing a little bit of a game here. which is.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: J.K.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: Dobbins did not look happy at the end of the
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: game despite the win. He just didn't. I don't think
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: he spoke to the media, right?
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: He didn't comment. He refused to comment to the media
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: because I think he knew the question was going to
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: come and he didn't want to answer it. And you
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: know what that question was going to be.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Were you upset during the game about certain– he knew that,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: and so he did the right thing and just said, eh,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: let's sit this one out.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: And I don't think that Sean Payton can say Jonah
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: Coleman's now our feature back because he's got to worry
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: about not so much the feelings, but just the morale
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: of some other guys in that locker room. And he
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: can't say that out loud, but it's pretty clear. And
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: I think you see that by the reaction of J.K.
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: after the game. It's just to me, J.K. Dobbins last year,
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: it looked different than it did this year. And I
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: don't know if it's an injury. I don't know if
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: it's age.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it is.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: But Jonah Coleman has the burst. that I think you
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: need in the backfield, and I think it could be
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: a difference maker. You know, combine that with Bo Nix
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: maybe being a little bit more willing to run the football,
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: and now you got something else rolling. Now, the question
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: about KC is, we all know the first week of
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: the season was fool's gold for Kansas City. The fact
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: that the Broncos couldn't tackle anybody was, I think, way
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: more of a byproduct of they just weren't properly prepared
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: going into the NFL season on the basic fundamentals of
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: tackling because they didn't tackle in camp. And I think
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: that bit you in the butt that first week of
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: the year.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: But... But what?
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Say it.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: People are going to roll their eyes at me because
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: the Chiefs only lost one game this year, but I'm
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: going to say it anyway.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: I don't think the Chiefs do that good.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: Look at Patrick Mahomes' numbers for me and just tell
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: me what you think he is. Like, he is a
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: good quarterback. He's always going to be a good quarterback.
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: He is not blowing anybody away.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: He's not.
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: And I don't even know if it's just him. They
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: don't have weapons on that offense outside of Kenneth Walker.
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: Kenneth Walker is a weapon. if you can shut down
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: the running game, which the Broncos have had trouble doing,
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: and they certainly couldn't do it in week one. If
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: you can limit him, look at what the Seahawks did
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: to that chiefs offense by simply not allowing Kenneth Walker
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: to run the football last week.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: That's all he did.
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: They sold out the stop Kenneth Walker. And they said,
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: I dare you to throw it to Tyquan Thornton.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: And they tackled him. I mean, he, he, he slipped
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: a couple of tackles, but they tackled him. Yeah. And
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: the Broncos will be better there. The first week was
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: an aberration guys. I, I don't know how else to
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: describe that. I'm trying to make excuses for them, but
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: those are not the Broncos. They will tackle better.
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: They will not. If he breaks loose like he did
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: in that opener on several plays, I'll just turn around
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: and say, okay, I'm completely wrong. But there's no way
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: that's going to happen again. That was a team that
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: didn't really have a preseason, I guess.
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: Well, we talked about it. It's like, do you look
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: at a game like that and say, do you need
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: to do more tackling stuff in training camp to get
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: yourself properly prepared for a game? I have no idea.
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: Maybe it was just like the perfect storm of you
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: weren't really prepared and Kenneth Walker was extra motivated to
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: be like, bleep you for letting me go. I have
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: no idea.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now.
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: What's today?
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Tuesday?
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Broncos are going to win this game.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: I think so, too.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: They're a home dog. They're going to win straight up.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: They're going to win the game.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: I feel weird, if not awkward, that all three of
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: us have the same gut feeling because usually my gut
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: feeling comes out of nowhere. I told you last week
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday, 28-14, on a Wednesday, and that came out
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: of nowhere. For some reason, I just feel that the Broncos,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: and again, it won't be pretty. There are going to
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: be times where you look at that game and you're like,
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: what is this? That's what they do.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: They muck it up and they find a way. Yeah,
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: the Broncos are just going to win this game. I
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: just feel it.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Hey, you know what else? I feel the Brewers are
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: going to win the World Series. Do you feel it?
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: Do you?
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: You know, I.
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: Good call.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: I asked Mosher.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: Good call.
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: I'm watching that game last night. It was a great
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: game to start. And let me explain myself. I'm watching
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: the beginning of that game. That play that was made
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: where the dude smashes the wall on left field. Amazing
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: start to the game. I go up to put baby
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: Bo Val to bed. And in the time it took me,
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: 15 minutes maybe, to put baby Boval to bed, the
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: game went from 2-0 to 10-0 by the time I
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: got back to my TV. And I asked Mosher, what
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: the hell did I miss?
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: What happened?
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: You missed that. I started watching, I think the third
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: inning is when I finally just turned it on and said, okay,
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: I'm going to watch this. 2-0. Then we get to
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: the fifth. And they just raked and raked and raked.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: They raked.
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: See, I'm watching the highlights right now. That's a tough play.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: But you make a play, bases loaded, one hopper to short.
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Tough play, but if he makes that, they get out
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: of the inning, and then all of a sudden things
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: get away from you.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: Man, this was such a good World Series up until
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: that 10-0 score.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Like, even they were good games.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: Nobody cares.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I'm happy for Milwaukee, man. I'm happy for Milwaukee. I
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: love their logo. I love Robin Yount. I love it.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: You ever been to Milwaukee? Yeah.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: I went to a Denny's in Milwaukee, one of the
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: best Denny's I've ever been to. They're almost cursed. Their
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: apple pie a la mode was to die for. I
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: don't know if it's those Wisconsin dairy farms. I don't
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: know what's going on up there. But they have an
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: apple pie a la mode that's almost drug-like at the
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: Denny's in downtown Wisconsin. I've been to Wisconsin.
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: Vic's on to something here, Moj.
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: What?
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: If you go to a chain restaurant somewhere... But the
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: chain restaurant was amazing. It does feel, I don't know
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: what to tell you. You go to like some place
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: you're visiting, I don't know. I've never been to Philadelphia, okay?
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: If I go to Philly and I go to some
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: like mom and pop restaurant, I go, man, that's really good.
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: Not nearly as interesting as if I went to Philadelphia
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: and I went to a Buffalo Wild Wings and I said, guys,
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: you have no idea how good the B-Dubs was. Like,
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: it is weird when you hit, when you find a
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: chain And it hits weird.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Hey, I just want you to know that this particular
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Denny's where we stayed.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: Good.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Good for you. Was in the middle of a very, well,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: it was a rancid section. It wasn't the nicest section,
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: but the Denny's made it all worthwhile.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: I've been to Milwaukee many times. Well, I said many.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: Ten times, probably. Wisconsin, ten times. Milwaukee, probably eight times.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Not that great.
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Not that great.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: Why didn't apple pie almost make you drop an F-bomb on.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: The air, Vic? Because, you know me, I'm not a foodie.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not. For some reason, I can still taste it.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: I can see it. The general excitement of it.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Who in 2026 says, to die for? Who says that?
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: The apple a la mode thing was to die for.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: You sound like some New York City housewife or something. Oh,
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: it was to die for.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Moj, you know me. I don't do desserts. I don't
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: do sweets.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: To die for.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: But that day, that dessert. That Denny's changed my life. 303-504-0925.
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: Tom Watson. At the age. Jesus.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: What is that? So you got my trigger.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Hang on, hang on.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: You got my trigger.
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: So Tom Watson makes BF bomb. You said Jose Altuve
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: is five foot bleeping two or something like that.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Those are my triggers.
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: Why is it always something that's not really something to
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: curse about?
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: But you found them.
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: I have said coach Jared Bednar joins us tomorrow for
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: his weekly visit at eight o'clock. You can catch it
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: live or watch or listen anytime. Just Google the Jared
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: Bednar show. It's brought to you by Mr. Ruder plumbing,
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: proudly rooting for Colorado's hockey team. Kid pulls out a
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: to die for you'll figure to die for.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: Um, Adam Schefter at nine 20. Stick around.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: So do you come to Milwaukee often?
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm a regular visitor here, but Milwaukee has certainly
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: had its share of visitors. The French missionaries and explorers
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: were coming here as early as the late 1600s to
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: trade with the Native Americans.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: In fact, isn't Milwaukee an Indian name?
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, Pete, it is.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Actually, it's pronounced Miliwake, which is Algonquin for the good land.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: I was not aware of that.
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: I think one of the most interesting aspects of Milwaukee
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: is the fact that it's the only major American city
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: to have ever elected three socialist mayors.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Does this guy know how to party or what?
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: Ten bucks doesn't usually get you much anymore, but on Tuesdays,
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: they'll get you any large pizza at Papa Murphy's. It's
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: a $ 10 Tuesday. Order at papamurphys.com. Pick it up and
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: bake it fresh at home.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: Last week, I was in Philly. Couldn't get me a
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: Papa Murphy's. Today, I'm back home. I can get me
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: a Papa Murphy's, baby.
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Go get you some.
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: What do you guys think about this?
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: I feel like this Tuesday needs some spicing up. That's
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: what I feel like.
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: Spicing up out.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, look at Vic just sitting there with his teeth
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: in his mouth. The Nuggets got crushed last night by
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: a winless, then winless Golden State team. My hockey team
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: ain't playing consistent good hockey right now.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Hey, the Broncos had a Halloween party last night and
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: nobody invaded somebody's home.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Couldn't care less.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: It's not true.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Could not. I could not care less. Broncos had a
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: Halloween party. That's great. How does that affect my life whatsoever?
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: Well, in years past, it's been a newsworthy item.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, when my quarterback is getting beat up by
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: a vacuum, yeah. Then it makes headlines, yes.
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: Wasn't it also a story like the Broncos were playing
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: poorly and Vaughn would throw a party and people were like,
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: why are you throwing a party when your team's bad?
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: Wasn't that a whole thing too?
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, you can still throw a party when your
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: team stinks.
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: You can, yeah.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: Wait, you should just go into a shell? If your
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: team stinks, just go hide all the time?
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: What do you guys think about this? Dan Lanning, Oregon's
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: terrible this year. Dan Lanning said that Dante Moore is
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: not expected to play for the rest of the season.
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: He suffered a concussion against USC like a month ago.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Didn't they fire the OC?
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: They did, but Dante Moore was going to be like
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: a top five pick in the draft last year. And
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: he comes back for another year at Oregon. Oregon's terrible.
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: And he's not going to play. And now I don't
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: even know if he's going to be for sure a
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: first-round draft pick. And this is the conundrum that I
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: think a lot of these college kids face. It's like, hey,
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: if I stay at college for another year, I'll get
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: $ 5 million. I'm like, or you could go pro and.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Make $ 5.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: Million and be a year closer to a $ 50 million
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: contract if you play well.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: It's a leap of faith, and now they have more options.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: But what he is not providing Oregon is something called
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: a return on investment.
• 37:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: Well, he's got a concussion.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: I understand.
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: And I don't know if you can blame a kid
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: for being hurt in this scenario.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Well, that was a pretty significant concussion, too.
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: Well, that's what I'm saying.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was a horrible hit.
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's right. That was the one where the USC
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: guy got up and celebrated afterwards. That is correct.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: We haven't seen him since.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: This is obviously a career-altering type of injury.
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: Hey, I've got a question for you guys regarding college football.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: I saw somebody break it down over the weekend. This
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: is after USC went to Wisconsin and got pasted by
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: the Badgers. By the way, Nelly, put that in the
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: category for me. Thank you. Appreciate it.
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: They had Maiava. Maiava was in a blender. He was
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: a total disaster. He turned the ball over. But he
• 37:55
  Speaker 4: wasn't just doing that. He was taking sacks. And when
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: you take a sack, it's like, oh, second and 16.
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: His was like second and 25.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he was running backwards and didn't get tackled.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Who was that?
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: Maiava, the quarterback at USC. But Vic, somebody broke down
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: the money. They broke down the numbers regarding USC going
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: to the Big Ten. And while they're getting more in
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: the front, right, if they had just stayed in the Pac-12,
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: they would have had a much easier path to the playoff.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: And they would have made more money on the back
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: end by getting into the playoff by winning the Pac-12.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: And now they're in the Big Ten, and they can't
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: go anywhere.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley's going to get fired. He's the reason that the.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: But the point is, the short-sighted nature of going to
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: grab the money out of the Big Ten, they screwed themselves.
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: This is what I've been telling you. When you guys
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: brought the story last week about Miami saying, we aren't
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: staying in this crap conference anymore.
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: Why?
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: You'd go to the playoff every year. Why wouldn't you
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: want to... You really want to go 8-4 or 7-5
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: in the Big Ten or the SEC?
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: Maybe because the information they were given at the time
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: and the feeling was that everybody's got to jump to
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: these mega conferences because that's where it's headed and these
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: other conferences are going to shrivel up. Maybe that's the
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: intel they received.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: I'm waiting for the time, and I don't know if
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: it's ever going to happen, when a team goes, you
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: know what? I'm getting out of this Big Ten, this
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: Big 12, or that's right, SEC. I'm going to the
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Big 12. And I'm going to win that, Ma, and
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: I'm going to get an easy ride to the postseason.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: I'm going to make even more money than I would
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: by being in the conference and being a middle-of-the-pack, you know, 7-4,
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: 7-5 team.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Moj, would you respect the team if it said, I
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: don't care what everybody else is doing. We're going to
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: do things our way.
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: A team that's done that for years and just said,
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: I don't care about all the pressure and what you
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: guys think we should do. We're going to do things
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: our way.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: Well, it was just a very interesting breakdown.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Would you respect a team that did that?
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: No.
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: I would say join a conference.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: I knew you sensed it. I knew you sensed it
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: was coming.
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: Every time we talk about college football, the Irish got
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: to get brought up.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: I get it. I knew it.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: They're talking about a team that's already in a conference
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: and they say, I want to go to a smaller conference.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Jump to the ACC and win that ball.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: Your rationale is stupid too, Brett. That would be like
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: Alabama saying, All right, we're moving over to the MAAC
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: so we can win the conference every year and get
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: in the tournament.
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: That wouldn't be going to the MAAC.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, listen.
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: They've been in the SEC.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: It's the other sports as well. I get that.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: Miami has been in the ACC. The ACC, whether you
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: like it or not, the champion gets an auto bid
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: to the playoff. The MAAC champion does not. You get
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: an auto bid to the playoff if you win a
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: crap conference. Why wouldn't you take the chance to win
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: a championship every year? You want to know how you
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: get money? Win a title.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: So wait, are you blaming USC's demise on their move
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: to the Big Ten? Totally.
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: No.
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: No.
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: If USC was in the Pac-12, would they not have
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: a much better record and be more respected? Because they
• 41:04
  Speaker 4: would win more football games.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Well, if the Pac-12 were still together, it died and
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: then came back to life in some other form.
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you this right now. You ask any Nebraska fan,
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: because I lived it. They totally regret making the move
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: to the Big Ten. They should go back to the
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: Big 12. They haven't been a winner since they joined
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: the conference.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: They should go back to the Big 12.
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: Their last year in the Big 12, they were in
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: the Big 12 championship game and a second away from
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: winning that and having a chance at a national title.
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: It's the Big 12! They went to the Big 10
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: and have not won football games since.
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: Missouri should go back to the Big 12.
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: And I don't think it's just a coincidence that they
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: changed conferences and then all of a sudden they couldn't
• 41:44
  Speaker 4: win anymore. You ask any, would they rather be playing
• 41:48
  Speaker 4: Kansas State and Iowa State every week?
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Again, 100%. I think the assumption was they were going
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: to go to two mega conferences and you better join
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: now or not get in.
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: No, not back then.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: It wasn't.
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: It wasn't that back then.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: Well, you say back then it was only four years
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: ago that these moves started, started happening.
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: Nebraska went to the big 10, like in 2010. Yeah.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about USC, UCLA. Oh yeah. And I'm talking
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: about the entire pack falling apart. Hey, CU was at
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: its best when it was in the original big 12
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: before it moved to the pack.
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: Now here's the other thing. Um, Does it feel like
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: we don't have time for this?
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, Brett, I ran into a guy
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: last night at the game when the Nuggets were down
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: 20 late. And I went to the bar for water.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there waiting to do the postgame show.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: And some guy walks up to me and says, hey,
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: love your show. Brett's my favorite. He's from Nebraska. And
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: so am I. Keep telling him to call him. Keep
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: telling him to talk Nebraska. That's what he said to me.
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: I don't feel like I do that for you.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: So for you to hide from your Nebraska roots on
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: this show.
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: I don't hide from my roots.
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: Moe's, does he hide? Absolutely does.
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: I don't hide from my roots.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: He hides behind objects. He's afraid. He's afraid to say it.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: And it's sad because there are people in town that
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: actually appreciate you being from Nebraska.
• 43:19
  Speaker 4: What am I hiding from again?
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: What am I hiding? You're just afraid. You're afraid every
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: time we bring up Nebraska. I'm not even a fan.
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: Well, it's because people say, get the Husker fan out
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: of here. And I go, I'm not a Husker fan.
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: My parents went to Kansas State. I grew up hating Nebraska.
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: Be true to yourself.
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: Who cares what people think? What are you, Pat McAfee?
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: What about your wife?
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: She is a big Nebraska fan.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: Very big.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, uh-huh.
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: Be proud.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: Killed by association, bro.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Be proud.
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: Your dog likes to lick his own butt. What does
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: that have to do with anything?
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's tasty. I don't know. What do I know?
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: Never tried it.
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: You got people out on the streets that admire you
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: for your Nebraska roots and you're hiding from it. Sad.
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: You know what's funny? I spent all those years doing
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: that show in Nebraska and I would tell them I'm
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: not a Nebraska fan and they would hate me. They
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: would hate me for saying that. And now I say
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: that here and people hate me for acting like I'm not.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: It's got less than I love you.
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: Anyway, let's get back to the Nuggets, shall we? And
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: Here's the thing. Let me just throw it out there
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: right now. We'll get some reaction after the break.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Is it time to panic?
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: We're three games in. What is it time to panic?
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: Yes or no?
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: 303-504-0925.
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: We'll get to it next.
