Speaker 4: I'm talking text line open today eight seven seven seven
1:50
Speaker 4: nine four one ninety seven three. But I will state
1:53
Speaker 4: for the record that I have low expectations of the
1:55
Speaker 4: talking text line. People are in weekend mode. You know,
1:57
Speaker 4: it's gonna be a nice day. Chance of some no
2:00
Speaker 4: arms today because of the weirdness of a you know,
2:03
Speaker 4: Southern front rolling in.
2:05
Speaker 3: I agree, you know, and I would always give a
2:07
Speaker 3: pass to our faithful and loyal listeners if they wanted
2:10
Speaker 3: to take a day off. But however, we do have
2:12
Speaker 3: some pretty good, you know, if you could comments and
2:14
Speaker 3: questions coming in already on the talking text line.
2:17
Speaker 2: So once again, our listeners will do themselves. That's confidence.
2:21
Speaker 5: Whenever Tommy's nickname for the city of Chicago comes into it,
2:25
Speaker 5: I'm always going to be a.
2:26
Speaker 2: Big one, right there, Billy.
2:28
Speaker 5: Yeah, one hundred percent on the Bears base downplaying of
2:32
Speaker 5: the More trade. I was hearing he was the fourth
2:34
Speaker 5: option and I was wondering if I missed an acquisition.
2:37
Speaker 2: No, just there. It just shows their delusional thinking. Well.
2:41
Speaker 5: Also, it does also set up the Dj Moore trade yesterday,
2:46
Speaker 5: Truma Jermaine Edmonds being released. I think now the Bears
2:48
Speaker 5: have over forty million dollars of salary cab relief does
2:52
Speaker 5: open up the Bears to claim an offseason championship here
2:54
Speaker 5: once again. That's once again, and I mean, I can't
2:56
Speaker 5: wait to see that banner going cited for them to
2:59
Speaker 5: put the banner up in Indiana. Won that banner up
3:01
Speaker 5: that says we cleared cap space on an underwhelming free
3:04
Speaker 5: agent that we signed or.
3:05
Speaker 3: Next to finally want to playoff. Yeah, exactly, so that
3:07
Speaker 3: those two are going to be there. Yeah, I mean, listen,
3:10
Speaker 3: DJ Moore, he had his season low numbers. I get
3:12
Speaker 3: all that, So you know, they move off and be like, oh,
3:15
Speaker 3: it's fine. We got Rome, we got Luthor, some young
3:17
Speaker 3: talented guys, obviously Coleson Lovelin. But you know, it's just
3:20
Speaker 3: still you're losing important pictures. Are pieces of the picture there,
3:23
Speaker 3: and we'll see how they were. Definitely though Drew wasn't
3:26
Speaker 3: Ben Johnson's guy, No way, No, that was clear.
3:30
Speaker 2: Right, Like you could just see it.
3:31
Speaker 5: And it doesn't seem like Ben Johnson is going to uh,
3:34
Speaker 5: definitely seems like he's fair with playing favorites and he's
3:37
Speaker 5: very much okay with it.
3:38
Speaker 2: I understand it. You got guys that you were a
3:39
Speaker 2: part of drafting.
3:40
Speaker 5: Loveland was his first pick as the Bears head coach,
3:43
Speaker 5: but it was pretty clear that they were okay moving
3:46
Speaker 5: off him.
3:46
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, Ben has his ways and the Bears again.
3:50
Speaker 4: Welcome to the successful side of the NFL, where you
3:52
Speaker 4: got to say goodbye to players that you like that
3:54
Speaker 4: have been you know, kind of corners players. You gotta
3:57
Speaker 4: shut them. You gotta manage that cap. Managing success is
4:00
Speaker 4: as hard as a tainting success.
4:02
Speaker 5: Is one hundred percent and being able to do it
4:04
Speaker 5: year after year and and for you know, I know
4:07
Speaker 5: you're right at the forefront of the regression, uh Camp
4:10
Speaker 5: and you and Armory are taking the leaders of that bandwagon.
4:13
Speaker 2: And this is just off the field. I'm saying. On
4:15
Speaker 2: the field, you can't win.
4:17
Speaker 4: You can't come back from double digit deficits in no
4:21
Speaker 4: more than five times and expected to happen every time.
4:23
Speaker 2: Just hard to believe.
4:24
Speaker 3: But just that.
4:25
Speaker 5: I mean, they have a lot of draft capital, they have,
4:27
Speaker 5: they have assets. I don't know how much of it
4:30
Speaker 5: that they're ultimately going to be able to utilize.
4:32
Speaker 2: And you talk about it. Some of the vets that
4:35
Speaker 2: they got.
4:36
Speaker 5: Kevin Byard was one of the oldest players in the
4:38
Speaker 5: second in a secondary in the NFL and led the
4:41
Speaker 5: NFL in interception right, that kind of performance question.
4:44
Speaker 4: Isn't that the thing like you thought you go in
4:46
Speaker 4: it's like, all right, we're going to show up our defense.
4:48
Speaker 4: Now we've got to get some pass rushing. Now, oh,
4:50
Speaker 4: we got to replace the center and we got to replace.
4:52
Speaker 4: You didn't expect that life that comest.
4:55
Speaker 2: That's the biggest one.
4:56
Speaker 3: They didn't expect their their twenty seven year old center
4:58
Speaker 3: at the top of his game in a career to retire.
5:00
Speaker 2: Tire they go.
5:03
Speaker 4: But if they have money and they go get the
5:04
Speaker 4: top guy in the market. Maybe the Wisconsin kid can
5:06
Speaker 4: end up in Green Bay.
5:07
Speaker 2: And it's good, and it's gonna depend on.
5:11
Speaker 3: A chance right here, And as you know Billy said,
5:13
Speaker 3: it's true, it's gonna depend on number eighteen. It's gonna
5:15
Speaker 3: depend on Kailla Williams if he's great, If he turns
5:17
Speaker 3: out to be a great, great quarterback, all the other
5:20
Speaker 3: stuff probably manors less. Right, That's just the way it
5:22
Speaker 3: goes in this league. And that's the reality of it
5:25
Speaker 3: for the Bears. So you know, he made those plays
5:27
Speaker 3: down the stretch last year. We'll see if you can
5:28
Speaker 3: continue doing it.
5:29
Speaker 5: Who do you guys think right now? Going into free
5:31
Speaker 5: agency has like the most questions to answer. I mean,
5:34
Speaker 5: obviously Minnesota has the biggest question at the most important position,
5:39
Speaker 5: but I don't know that a lot. Maybe maybe we
5:41
Speaker 5: just have put them a little bit more onto the
5:43
Speaker 5: back burner. The Packers have a significant amount of questions
5:46
Speaker 5: to kind of answer themselves, right like, and they have
5:49
Speaker 5: like four or five different pretty significant holes that are
5:52
Speaker 5: going to be available. I know John asked this earlier
5:54
Speaker 5: on do you see the Packers trying to resign any
5:56
Speaker 5: of their free agents? I'd be surprised if they didn't
5:59
Speaker 5: try to get something done with Kingsley and Bare before
6:02
Speaker 5: he hits the market.
6:03
Speaker 2: That would be a guy.
6:04
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't more than Gary. I'd be stunned if it.
6:08
Speaker 5: I'm the more and more I'm thinking of the rashon
6:11
Speaker 5: Gary one. I'm wondering if there's a restructure headed this way.
6:14
Speaker 4: I was wondering about that too, because you do kind
6:16
Speaker 4: of need that bookend, right, you need somebody.
6:18
Speaker 5: But digging into seeing some more of the conversations and
6:23
Speaker 5: if you really go back into Micah Parsons, what do
6:25
Speaker 5: you talk for like eighteen minutes after at locker clean
6:28
Speaker 5: out that.
6:29
Speaker 2: He'll talk to you.
6:29
Speaker 3: If you get a microphon him, he'll talk to you.
6:31
Speaker 3: And it's always interesting. Don't remember if you heard number
6:34
Speaker 3: fifty two's name.
6:36
Speaker 5: I remember him talking a lot about Lucas VanNess, I
6:38
Speaker 5: remember talking about Yeah, I remember him talking about d
6:42
Speaker 5: Why a lot and DeVante Wyatt coming back. I don't
6:45
Speaker 5: fully remember it, And there was a lot in there
6:47
Speaker 5: of like I dare people to beat me to the ball.
6:51
Speaker 5: I dare people out hustle me and outwork me. So
6:54
Speaker 5: like maybe that's what there could be a little bit
6:56
Speaker 5: of conflict of interest of a lot of the videos
6:58
Speaker 5: that we've seen of Rashan Gary and maybe that one's
7:00
Speaker 5: still just sitting here. The Packers very rarely will clear
7:04
Speaker 5: the cap room until they very much needed.
7:08
Speaker 3: And it did seem like you're right in that type
7:10
Speaker 3: of you know, the conversation with Mike and that it
7:13
Speaker 3: was a lot of like, I'm going to be a
7:15
Speaker 3: leader now and everybody has to match the effort and
7:17
Speaker 3: energy that I put into it, and maybe I didn't
7:20
Speaker 3: see a lot of that. And now it's time for
7:21
Speaker 3: us to ask ourselves, what can we do more in
7:24
Speaker 3: the offseason?
7:25
Speaker 2: What can we do more to help our team? Are
7:27
Speaker 2: we doing enough in the in our own time?
7:29
Speaker 3: You know? And you're right, Billy, you can't help but
7:31
Speaker 3: think that might those might have been pointed at certain
7:34
Speaker 3: guys or maybe just in a general lack of that
7:36
Speaker 3: attitude enough on defense. So yeah, I think that there's
7:41
Speaker 3: there's something there. Troy has the funny That's Funny YouTube.
7:44
Speaker 5: He didn't say his name, just like the announcers the
7:47
Speaker 5: last eight weeks of the season didn't say all right.
7:50
Speaker 2: I mean, hey, let's it's fair comment.
7:55
Speaker 3: Goody said he played well Okay, I did say that,
7:58
Speaker 3: Brian did say he played well and played better, then
8:00
Speaker 3: people will give him credit for Marcus on the talking
8:03
Speaker 3: text line. Packers should put that ten million instead of
8:05
Speaker 3: into the kicking field goals, into the offensive line. Then
8:08
Speaker 3: they can spend more time scoring touchdowns and then instead
8:11
Speaker 3: of coming.
8:11
Speaker 2: Up and making short kicks.
8:13
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean that's a good point. I mean, listen,
8:15
Speaker 3: this is one of Goody's biggest challenges. I think this offseason,
8:19
Speaker 3: you know, because he took over, and since he took
8:21
Speaker 3: over in eighteen, think about they don't have a first
8:22
Speaker 3: round pick. They're not really you know, flushed with salary
8:25
Speaker 3: cap space, but there's positions and desperate need of upgrades. So,
8:30
Speaker 3: you know, in a cornerback, is there ways to fix
8:32
Speaker 3: these problems on a cheezing Cracker's budget. I'm not saying
8:34
Speaker 3: that's what it is, but the reality is we don't
8:37
Speaker 3: have so many assets right now, oodles of cap space
8:40
Speaker 3: three first right, you know, you'll have all those those things,
8:43
Speaker 3: and it's his job to go and find great players,
8:45
Speaker 3: find players that are going to upgrade the positions and
8:47
Speaker 3: try and help your team win and win in the playoffs.
8:49
Speaker 3: You know, I think that's the next step obviously for
8:51
Speaker 3: this team. As we all know, they've been able to
8:53
Speaker 3: make the playoffs, but how can you get your team
8:55
Speaker 3: to that next level. It's a challenge for GOODI So
8:57
Speaker 3: you talk about questions in the offseason the Packers, their share.
9:00
Speaker 5: The offensive line is a big one, Drew, And I mean,
9:03
Speaker 5: we've talked more about Jordan Morgan without being able to
9:05
Speaker 5: see him a ton, and that's the easiest piece that
9:09
Speaker 5: needs to be significant and perform really really well next year.
9:14
Speaker 2: But the center spot's an interesting one.
9:16
Speaker 5: And going back to the free agents, the one guy
9:18
Speaker 5: that I've had people ask and like say, oh, I think.
9:21
Speaker 2: They should bring him back. I definitely think they'd bring
9:22
Speaker 2: him back that I just don't see as Sean Ryan.
9:25
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't see. I don't see that one back.
9:28
Speaker 5: I could see kway Walker before I could see maybe
9:31
Speaker 5: a Sean Ryan. And like agreed, quay Walker feels like
9:34
Speaker 5: it would be a hail Mary because there's a number
9:36
Speaker 5: of other inside backers that they might feel are are
9:39
Speaker 5: more appealing on the open market and they could just
9:42
Speaker 5: replace him with somebody else that they see for a
9:44
Speaker 5: little bit cheaper spot. But that one I think could
9:48
Speaker 5: be a possibility. Any chance, any chance Romeo Dobs is
9:51
Speaker 5: back in your mind?
9:52
Speaker 2: No, yeah, I struggle to see it.
9:55
Speaker 5: Even though the productivity I do believe would lend him
9:58
Speaker 5: to have more of a conversation.
10:00
Speaker 2: He's productive might be the problem.
10:01
Speaker 3: He's gonna probably demand too much money on the market
10:04
Speaker 3: for a team that's deep enough at receiver with with
10:07
Speaker 3: other guys, or I think we think.
10:09
Speaker 2: That we're deep.
10:10
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, they think that's fair, but you
10:13
Speaker 3: got to stay healthy.
10:13
Speaker 2: But I mean, when I start lining up the guys,
10:18
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna put don Tavian Wis in front of.
10:20
Speaker 3: Which is too bad because I think he has talent
10:22
Speaker 3: and he starts showing me. But with Red Watson, I
10:26
Speaker 3: get it.
10:27
Speaker 2: I think they're not gonna spend money. There's my point.
10:29
Speaker 2: They don't have to. But he comes out. He comes
10:31
Speaker 2: out on it. You know. That's what told us here
10:34
Speaker 2: on Packers Williams is a high draft picker.
10:36
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well they run him a gap. He's not
10:38
Speaker 3: a receiver. He's a he's a he's a fullback. So
10:41
Speaker 3: I'm just saying I would let you know, I would
10:44
Speaker 3: love to have Romeo back at the price of whatever
10:46
Speaker 3: in a perfect world, you know, I mean, I love
10:48
Speaker 3: Romeo Dobbs. He's a consistent hands receiver, you know, one
10:53
Speaker 3: one muffed onside notwithstanding, he was great for the Packers
10:57
Speaker 3: and I so if the money's right and he's worth it,
11:01
Speaker 3: maybe the market won't be what I think it is.
11:03
Speaker 3: Maybe I thought that I'll like him as a player.
11:05
Speaker 2: He didn't draft Golden and Williams to keep Romeo Dobs.
11:09
Speaker 5: Nobody else didn't play those guys. But those guys didn't
11:12
Speaker 5: really earn a whole lot of opportunity on there. Now,
11:14
Speaker 5: the way Watson played would have you believe that they're
11:17
Speaker 5: gonna sign him to another extension. But if you're gonna
11:21
Speaker 5: talk about the price being different, how much of a
11:23
Speaker 5: how much of a difference would it be if you
11:24
Speaker 5: lock up Romeo for four years and then you move
11:27
Speaker 5: off of Watson and try to recoup some assets there
11:29
Speaker 5: and off set it with pricing that beside.
11:32
Speaker 3: Dobbler says in the you two, I'd rather keep Dobbs
11:34
Speaker 3: over the brittle read. It's about availability. I don't know
11:36
Speaker 3: if that's fair, but he did get hurt a lot.
11:38
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's just the call him brittle, but.
11:40
Speaker 2: You know he took.
11:41
Speaker 3: But the thing about Jaden Reid is when he was healthy,
11:43
Speaker 3: he was making his first couple of years of the
11:45
Speaker 3: most explosive plays for the Packers in the back end,
11:48
Speaker 3: especially when Watson was out. And that's huge for any
11:50
Speaker 3: Any offense is explosive plays. The Packers value that very
11:54
Speaker 3: very highly, and they're gonna they're gonna probably value the
11:57
Speaker 3: guys that give him the best chance to do so. Yeah,
12:00
Speaker 3: but you you have a point though about about if
12:02
Speaker 3: Watson gets the deal, Billy and who else is in there.
12:04
Speaker 3: Golden didn't play. I mean that was a disappointment for
12:07
Speaker 3: many Packers fans. But he did finally get the touchdown
12:09
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. Maybe that that will be the catapult
12:12
Speaker 3: for him. There are questions to answer in that regard.
12:15
Speaker 3: I think the rest of the Division two has a
12:17
Speaker 3: fair amount of questions. The Lions have a new offensive coordinator.
12:20
Speaker 3: How is that gonna work in? You know, their best
12:24
Speaker 3: ability was their explosive offense the last few years. As
12:27
Speaker 3: their window closed and you know, had a disappointing here
12:29
Speaker 3: we'll see it looks like.
12:31
Speaker 5: They got them Yeah, they got themselves. A number of
12:33
Speaker 5: different opportunities to hit something in the free agent pool. Now,
12:37
Speaker 5: I'd be if Linderbaum goes up to Detroit, that would
12:40
Speaker 5: be the interesting one, right Like, I mean you immediately
12:43
Speaker 5: right back into a conversation with a massive question answered
12:49
Speaker 5: with the best guy in the league at.
12:50
Speaker 2: And that would be huge.
12:51
Speaker 4: Where do you think, like now the two was gonna be.
12:55
Speaker 4: You know, they're gonna sever tize which one of those
12:57
Speaker 4: guys ends up with the Jets? Is it Kyler Murray
12:59
Speaker 4: and up with the Jets as their bridge quarterback? Oh?
13:02
Speaker 4: I see I chance or obviously you'd rather go to Minnesota.
13:05
Speaker 4: Doesn't but Minnesota say no thanks?
13:08
Speaker 5: But no, I think the Jets and and maybe this
13:11
Speaker 5: is just get them for that cheap the way I
13:13
Speaker 5: think they should do. I think they're going to be
13:15
Speaker 5: a little bit more outwardly taking this year, right Like,
13:17
Speaker 5: I think I wouldn't be surprised if you see a
13:21
Speaker 5: like not him, but a Cody Kessler like name where
13:24
Speaker 5: you're like, holy cow, that guy's starting games in the
13:26
Speaker 5: NFL again, like.
13:27
Speaker 2: Brissette maybe or somebody like that.
13:29
Speaker 5: I don't know very much, so like you could see
13:31
Speaker 5: something like that all of a sudden, jameis Winston ends
13:33
Speaker 5: up over there and he's starting games. Mister unlimited, Yeah,
13:39
Speaker 5: wouldn't have to move, Like I just I don't think
13:41
Speaker 5: they're in any serious build where they're like.
13:45
Speaker 2: This shot want to get is not going to be
13:49
Speaker 2: expensive though, right because of the by the Cardinals.
13:52
Speaker 5: But he's I'm saying they're going to go after somebody
13:56
Speaker 5: with a very much less competitive They don't go six.
13:59
Speaker 2: And so they don't go six seven wins. Yeah, you
14:02
Speaker 2: do not want to win six games.
14:04
Speaker 3: The problem for the Jets is their reputations floundering so
14:07
Speaker 3: much that guys are not going to have the option
14:09
Speaker 3: to stay in college. Like even taking and getting a
14:11
Speaker 3: good pick, you can get the.
14:12
Speaker 5: Great player because guys don't want to talk to you
14:14
Speaker 5: or you know what, I'd rather play it's amazing, and boy,
14:18
Speaker 5: then how do you really fix yourself?
14:19
Speaker 2: I mean, if you don't have if you don't have
14:21
Speaker 2: the right guys.
14:22
Speaker 3: In place, the personnel, the right ownership, the guys don't
14:24
Speaker 3: want to come play there, and you're not even allowed
14:26
Speaker 3: to draft good players.
14:27
Speaker 2: Because they won't come to you. They won't come to
14:29
Speaker 2: the draft if you're around.
14:30
Speaker 3: It's like, man, it's like I'm not even going to
14:33
Speaker 3: dance and she's gonna be there because I want her.
14:35
Speaker 2: To talk to me, like you know what I mean.
14:38
Speaker 5: Yeah, Frank Reich is the u O c OC there
14:41
Speaker 5: for for Aaron Glenn, So the quarterback whisperer, perhaps Kirk
14:45
Speaker 5: or Kyler seems to be the the answer in Minnesota.
14:48
Speaker 5: I think it seems like that's the that's the.
14:50
Speaker 4: Question they're trying to Like, if you're once, you rather
14:54
Speaker 4: have Kyler Murray than Kirk, even in a bridge quarterback situation,
14:58
Speaker 4: like I could take Kyler for a year, like hey,
15:00
Speaker 4: you know, come out for a year, enjoy New York
15:03
Speaker 4: and all it has to offer, and then put the
15:05
Speaker 4: paddles to your career and see.
15:07
Speaker 3: You know.
15:07
Speaker 5: Let me let me make this clear. I definitely think
15:10
Speaker 5: they're gonna pitch it. I don't think anybody's taking that offer.
15:13
Speaker 5: I think I think that's that's like if you're the
15:15
Speaker 5: fish that's swimming around in the pond and all of
15:17
Speaker 5: a sudden you see bread, hot dog bait.
15:20
Speaker 2: I'm probably not going after the bread.
15:22
Speaker 4: Yeah, but there's a all right, So you get in Minnesota,
15:26
Speaker 4: you get Koc, you get justin Jefferson Addison, you.
15:29
Speaker 2: Get indoors, you get a nice hot situation.
15:32
Speaker 5: Atlanta is another one, like people are really really firing
15:35
Speaker 5: up Atlanta as a possibility for Kyler Murray with Drake London.
15:39
Speaker 4: Kyle ends up with the Jets when he gets released
15:43
Speaker 4: or what, then Tua could be the Jets quarterback.
15:46
Speaker 2: Isn't that tanking too?
15:48
Speaker 5: Yeah, it could be just the Tua one. I don't
15:51
Speaker 5: know that anyone's giving him a chance. I don't know
15:54
Speaker 5: that anybody's signing up would be in their number one option. Start,
15:57
Speaker 5: because you know that you're one hit away from in
16:00
Speaker 5: the exact same situation. A good point if you're a
16:03
Speaker 5: tanking team, Drew, You're right, it would. It would make
16:05
Speaker 5: some sense.
16:05
Speaker 2: It helps.
16:06
Speaker 4: That's kind the same with Cousins, the way he's like
16:08
Speaker 4: not mobile and could be a sitting duck with a
16:10
Speaker 4: bad offensive line.
16:12
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean him, You actually don't worry about
16:15
Speaker 5: him not being able to get up right, I mean
16:17
Speaker 5: to to it. He might actually be completely And Kirk
16:21
Speaker 5: has been despite the achilles, incredibly durable. Now he can't
16:25
Speaker 5: move as well, but he's got great arm talent. You
16:27
Speaker 5: still saw it later into the year when they started
16:29
Speaker 5: winning a bunch of games in Atlanta. Uh, he was
16:32
Speaker 5: one of the catalysts of it to get in the
16:34
Speaker 5: rock round the Minnesota piece. If you're choosing between Kyler
16:38
Speaker 5: Murray or Kirk Cousins, one completely admits that you're not
16:43
Speaker 5: you're out of the JJ McCarthy business. Right Like, if
16:46
Speaker 5: you sign up for Kyler Murray, you're embracing the fact
16:50
Speaker 5: that JJ doesn't start for you. But if they give him,
16:52
Speaker 5: because the goal is yeah, but the goal is for
16:54
Speaker 5: Kyler Murray to be awesome. On the minimum, you extend
16:57
Speaker 5: him for three four years and then you're out there.
17:00
Speaker 5: McCarthy business. Kirk Cousins is one to one and a
17:04
Speaker 5: half two years, and then you're gonna try and put
17:07
Speaker 5: the paddles, I think to McCarthy because he then sees
17:10
Speaker 5: of that do it I It depends on how much
17:14
Speaker 5: Kevin O'Connell still believes in JJ McCarthy. He said his
17:18
Speaker 5: thoughts and belief has not changed in JJ McCarthy, just.
17:22
Speaker 2: The time has changed. What were the time? What was
17:25
Speaker 2: the original?
17:26
Speaker 5: Lots of policee because J McCarthy's a dude, because quest
17:29
Speaker 5: he's gone, I get it okay.
17:31
Speaker 3: So if he believes okay, so yes, if you. If
17:34
Speaker 3: you get Kyler, you might not be in the JJ
17:36
Speaker 3: McCarthy business. But if you have JJ McCarthy, you still
17:38
Speaker 3: try to make me a starter, you might not be
17:40
Speaker 3: in the winning business. And that's the problem for the
17:42
Speaker 3: Vikings because I think they're they're closer to a larger
17:45
Speaker 3: size of me change in their organization than not. I mean,
17:48
Speaker 3: you're talking about a GM. I think O'Connell's a really
17:50
Speaker 3: good coach, but this would be the second year. If
17:52
Speaker 3: they don't play well this year that he's kind of underwhelming,
17:54
Speaker 3: I'm not sure they'd fire him.
17:55
Speaker 2: Maybe he doesn't want to stay around. I'm not really
17:57
Speaker 2: sure what the future hold. I like what you're thinking that.
18:00
Speaker 3: And then who knows. I mean, they got a new stadium.
18:03
Speaker 3: Maybe they want to get out of town and move,
18:04
Speaker 3: move the franchise. You don't know what's gonna happen. Last
18:08
Speaker 3: parts of joke. Last parts of joke.
18:10
Speaker 5: Well, I mean he's got he's got one of the
18:13
Speaker 5: richest contracts in the league, hasn't won a playoff game.
18:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, it would be. It would be there.
18:19
Speaker 5: There's gonna be some heat, there's gonna be some some
18:21
Speaker 5: pressure to finally get the the wins.
18:23
Speaker 2: And losses.
18:24
Speaker 5: But I mean, if you talk about scapegoats, it sounded
18:28
Speaker 5: pretty loud that Kevin O'Connell was going to make the quarterback.
18:31
Speaker 2: Decision there in Minnesota. Well that's the thing, and the
18:34
Speaker 2: other guy ended up getting fired when it didn't work out,
18:36
Speaker 2: So he won the power struggle, right.
18:38
Speaker 5: I mean, unless it was a hey, you go figure
18:41
Speaker 5: out the contract and he didn't hold up his end
18:43
Speaker 5: of the bargain, Drew, there could be Uh.
18:46
Speaker 2: Then then I do believe.
18:47
Speaker 5: He's all in on McCarthy and that they might try
18:49
Speaker 5: to go somewhere more with a bridge. But do you
18:51
Speaker 5: do you like, if you go with Kyler, you're hoping
18:55
Speaker 5: that you're never starting JJ McCarthy again.
18:58
Speaker 3: In theory, yes, you want him play well. Absolutely, If
19:01
Speaker 3: he plays well, you were signing him again. So I'd
19:03
Speaker 3: have to agree years old, you're gonna trade um les,
19:06
Speaker 3: You're gonna trade him. You go on a lookie lou,
19:08
Speaker 3: if you have a good year, you sign with them.
19:09
Speaker 3: If you have a decent you're gonna be you know,
19:12
Speaker 3: you'll be able to go test the water somewhere else. Yeah,
19:14
Speaker 3: what am I saying that? I mean, that's aren't going anywhere.
19:16
Speaker 3: They let they let somebody win fourteen games at a walk.
19:18
Speaker 3: They definitely could get rid of Kyler again.
19:20
Speaker 2: Then we'll be talking about the year after this one
19:22
Speaker 2: am I talking about? Then we'd be talking about.
19:24
Speaker 3: The fourth year that McCarthy there till trying to me
19:27
Speaker 3: McCarthy work. And no one's gotten that many chances like
19:30
Speaker 3: and not performed, not even Jeff George.

21:12
Speaker 3: uh my Greenfield Hawks last night in the in the tournament.
21:16
Speaker 2: Now, we started off hot.
21:17
Speaker 3: It was six nothing I think that it was like
21:19
Speaker 3: this thirty six thirty three to six run or something.
21:21
Speaker 5: So will pick your right out of the game, yes,
21:23
Speaker 5: thirty three six runs, or fight on for the win,
21:27
Speaker 5: keep your colors waving proudly in the game.
21:29
Speaker 2: You'll win and blah blah blah. Yeah no yah. Now
21:32
Speaker 2: here's the thing.
21:33
Speaker 3: You know it was played ago, all right, So as
21:36
Speaker 3: you know, if you neutral sights, if you look at maps,
21:38
Speaker 3: that's a little bit closer.
21:39
Speaker 5: Oh okay, so that must have been different neutral site.
21:42
Speaker 5: You guys didn't get the alumni out there. Huh. Listen, listen,
21:45
Speaker 5: it was even closer to the alumni base out there
21:48
Speaker 5: that outsourced themselves from the east side of green Field.
21:50
Speaker 4: For you guys, Armand gets credit. Give him a flowers.
21:54
Speaker 4: He sacked up right away. I drove out of my
21:58
Speaker 4: way to get those.
21:58
Speaker 2: That's right.
22:00
Speaker 4: One of our former coworkers lost a finished last in
22:03
Speaker 4: fantasy football. Was supposed to set up a lemonade stand
22:05
Speaker 4: one hundred Highway one hundred.
22:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, and Beloit he never did. It was
22:09
Speaker 2: supposed to be. He was supposed to be.
22:11
Speaker 4: He was supposed to spend like six hours or until
22:13
Speaker 4: he made a hundred bucks, whichever came first.
22:15
Speaker 2: That that was the guy that no longer works.
22:17
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what that might have been actually found
22:20
Speaker 3: like in a way like unexpected treasure, because there are
22:23
Speaker 3: margins in lemonade stands. Now, oh, come there there are. Hey,
22:26
Speaker 3: what does it cost to make a jug of lemonade?
22:28
Speaker 3: Especially if for mom makes.
22:29
Speaker 2: I would buy some glazers and sell those for five
22:31
Speaker 2: bucks apiece.
22:33
Speaker 3: But these little kids, all right, they're selling lemonade in
22:36
Speaker 3: the stand. Like I'm walking the Greenfield village last summer.
22:39
Speaker 3: Their kids are like, you know, they're selling for like
22:41
Speaker 3: a dollar, two dollars these days.
22:42
Speaker 2: I'm like, wait a.
22:43
Speaker 5: Passat, and then I don't have any We're out of lemonade.
22:49
Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, well what do you have? Cupcakes?
22:52
Speaker 2: And water? I'm like, all right, get me a cupcake
22:53
Speaker 2: in the water. I still paid, I still got it
22:56
Speaker 2: on my arm, and looking for the two for one discount,
22:59
Speaker 2: better deal.
23:00
Speaker 4: The coupon for the lemonademan's not going unless.
23:03
Speaker 2: Are you guys in the entertainment book.
23:05
Speaker 4: So that's a great So now can we get Now
23:10
Speaker 4: there's a tough matchup, though, because after having dispatched with
23:12
Speaker 4: the fightingmans, you're fighting falcons. Can we get Billy into
23:16
Speaker 4: the falcon costume again? Be the mascot because they're facing
23:20
Speaker 4: Whitefish Bay on Saturday. And and the Caitlin Clark of
23:24
Speaker 4: Whitefish Bay Rowan Council, Craig Council's daughter, all time leading
23:27
Speaker 4: scorer in Blue Duke's history. I think I think she
23:30
Speaker 4: is going to be shooting down Witnall, so it could
23:32
Speaker 4: be a tough matchup.
23:33
Speaker 5: It's a matchup of two all time leading scores. My
23:36
Speaker 5: cousin Riley Ward won the scoring title at Whitnel, so
23:38
Speaker 5: it's it's gonna be a matchup.
23:40
Speaker 2: Dude. I'm excited for it. Bad thing is that backup
23:42
Speaker 2: Mesquito by the way, nor ye last night?
23:50
Speaker 5: Yeah, unlike last night. The problem is I'm trying to
23:52
Speaker 5: I'm trying to scheme it up. I don't know that
23:54
Speaker 5: there's any possible way that I'd get from panther Arena
23:58
Speaker 5: to the close of that game for the celebration, So
24:01
Speaker 5: might just have to Might just have to meet the
24:02
Speaker 5: celebration at McDonald's on Highway one hundred and Forest after just.
24:05
Speaker 6: Go from the Pantherina to white Fish Bay. That's a
24:07
Speaker 6: short hop and you can celebrate right there there and celebrate.
24:11
Speaker 4: Oh bringing the heat, bringing the heat, Hawking horn, So
24:15
Speaker 4: dof we've sure for the Hawkeyes last week, oh Man,
24:18
Speaker 4: tough one. We spent a lot of time today talking
24:20
Speaker 4: about Bob Harlan, who touches a lot of basses for
24:23
Speaker 4: us because he's a Marquette.
24:24
Speaker 6: Alum like right and uh des moin Native Yeah he was,
24:28
Speaker 6: And I actually knew Bob a little bit. My brother
24:31
Speaker 6: Gary and his son Brian were great friends. Still get
24:35
Speaker 6: together occasionally. Brian's a big time agent now if you
24:38
Speaker 6: want to look him up, He's got a lot of
24:39
Speaker 6: high power clients. But uh, I got to know Bob
24:42
Speaker 6: and Matt Matteline, his wife, threw Brian to the point
24:45
Speaker 6: where I got him tickets to a couple of shows
24:47
Speaker 6: at Bradley Center. Back and the Reba McIntyre and Bob
24:50
Speaker 6: gave us unbelievable acts during those Super Bowl runs in
24:53
Speaker 6: New Orleans and San Diego. I'll remember to my dying day,
24:56
Speaker 6: sitting at in La Joya at the Packer Hotel, out
24:58
Speaker 6: on this beautiful deck overlooking the ocean. Bob gave us
25:02
Speaker 6: what seems like unlimited time in interviews and he also
25:05
Speaker 6: set up great interviews with some of the players too.
25:07
Speaker 2: Just a great dude.
25:09
Speaker 6: I always remember thinking is this to put on or
25:11
Speaker 6: is he really this nice? Because that's the thing. He's
25:13
Speaker 6: running one of the most you know, story franchises sports history,
25:17
Speaker 6: and he was just the best guy.
25:19
Speaker 2: No ego, He's so gracious Iowa. Yeah, yeah, he was
25:22
Speaker 2: speaking of Kaitlyn Clark. I believe Bob went to Dolling Catholic. Yeah,
25:27
Speaker 2: who just.
25:28
Speaker 3: Made State and boys, and I was, yeah, my buddy's
25:31
Speaker 3: the head coach, congraduated, that's awesome.
25:33
Speaker 2: Justin Anderson, he brought him, He brought him to State
25:35
Speaker 2: and that a Kitlyn Clark school, isn't it? What did
25:37
Speaker 2: she go down? Exactly where she went? Yeah, it's her alumni.
25:39
Speaker 5: That's Bob Harlan's alumni as well. And we were saying it, Dolph,
25:42
Speaker 5: like it's it's hard. You're not going to find anybody
25:45
Speaker 5: with a bad word about him, but like it was
25:46
Speaker 5: almost you could tell people that were giving statements yesterday
25:50
Speaker 5: and you know, whatever it is, one hundred and forty
25:52
Speaker 5: characters or two hundred and eighty characters, whatever you get,
25:55
Speaker 5: people felt like you had. They almost felt bad saying
25:57
Speaker 5: anything about the football related conquests that he had because
26:01
Speaker 5: of just the genuine nature that he had and how
26:05
Speaker 5: personable he was. And you know, it's the team is
26:08
Speaker 5: clearly not where they are today if it's not for Bob,
26:12
Speaker 5: but just the relationship that people have with each other.
26:16
Speaker 5: Like people got all over a bunch of the Packers
26:18
Speaker 5: beat writers this year because La Floor stopped over at
26:22
Speaker 5: Banky's house, right and they had a picture or whatever. Well,
26:25
Speaker 5: in the nineties you were very much able to sit
26:28
Speaker 5: down and have a conversation and maybe a cocktail with
26:30
Speaker 5: somebody that was maybe a decision maker if they were personal.
26:33
Speaker 2: Bob Harlan was the most personal human being he was anybody,
26:36
Speaker 2: and he had to be a politician when they tried to.
26:38
Speaker 6: You know, he had the vision, along with the other
26:40
Speaker 6: Packer brass, of turning lambeau Field into what you see
26:43
Speaker 6: today because I got you know, you guys were probably
26:46
Speaker 6: both there back in the day too. When I first
26:47
Speaker 6: moved to Milwaukee, it was not a pleasant place to
26:50
Speaker 6: spend a Sunday afternoon as far as a game day experience.
26:53
Speaker 2: The game was great.
26:54
Speaker 6: You were at legendary lambeau Field, but it was almost
26:57
Speaker 6: like a glorified high school studient, those cramp damp little
27:00
Speaker 6: concourses and there wasn't much to that place except the
27:03
Speaker 6: field bull itself.
27:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was definitely prehistoric, it.
27:07
Speaker 6: Was, and so you know, you know, he got the
27:09
Speaker 6: the area around it too, and know it's just different now.
27:12
Speaker 6: He was the guy though, but that got that half scent.
27:14
Speaker 6: He was, you know, flying the flaggate that half sent
27:16
Speaker 6: sales tas approved. And and you know, probably the biggest
27:19
Speaker 6: move is bringing in round Wolf, right, yeah, oh yes, that.
27:21
Speaker 4: Would be it and giving him power. Yeah, and not
27:23
Speaker 4: meddling point yeah, yeah, not meddling in the football ops. Yeah,
27:27
Speaker 4: I mean moving out of Milwaukee. And it took some
27:30
Speaker 4: pushing through. And yeah, this was a time when uh,
27:34
Speaker 4: the Brewers had gone through their funding thing. And then
27:36
Speaker 4: like the Packers, winning a Super Bowl was good for
27:38
Speaker 4: business and it was good to help get the referendums
27:40
Speaker 4: passed to get the funding.
27:42
Speaker 6: To his credit and to their credit, they still kept
27:45
Speaker 6: those Milwaukee season ticket holders happy someone happy by giving
27:48
Speaker 6: them the Gold package to what you see today in Lambeowfield.
27:51
Speaker 2: A lot of places wouldn't have done that.
27:53
Speaker 5: No, And and I mean again like I think about
27:55
Speaker 5: it with with having my kids all three. We talked
27:58
Speaker 5: about herb Coal, bud Sea League, and Bob Harlan. If
28:02
Speaker 5: it's not for those guys, there's not professional sports in
28:04
Speaker 5: that many professional sports at least three in the state
28:07
Speaker 5: of wisconsins true and and you I'm glad.
28:15
Speaker 3: Three franchises away from being true. Now, keep in mind,
28:18
Speaker 3: nice Triple A city. I hate to say it, but
28:20
Speaker 3: it is. It's a nice place. I've been there and
28:24
Speaker 3: I enjoyed it. But it's that that, you know, a
28:26
Speaker 3: lot of times when you talk about you know, is
28:29
Speaker 3: the reputation of a city sports having big league sports
28:32
Speaker 3: is one of those things that separates it.
28:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're never going to see that.
28:34
Speaker 6: I mean, Ioway's got less than half the population that
28:37
Speaker 6: Wisconsin has. I think it's a little under three million total,
28:40
Speaker 6: But minor league sports they knock it out of the
28:42
Speaker 6: park Man one of the best Triple as. I don't
28:44
Speaker 6: mean that, I don't really mean that, you know, with
28:46
Speaker 6: this day and I mean I don't know. My kid
28:48
Speaker 6: only thinks of the Iowa Wild. We have the Minnesota
28:51
Speaker 6: Wild on last night, and he goes Iowa because the
28:54
Speaker 6: admirals the Adnerals. You don't care about no NHL AHL
28:58
Speaker 6: that it works out. They are right there out in Martin.
29:01
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
29:01
Speaker 5: I do also like they just grabbed the name of
29:03
Speaker 5: the actual team, Iowa Wild Iowa Cubs.
29:06
Speaker 3: And they owned the team. I think that that's the
29:08
Speaker 3: thing in the NHL AHL. Some parent companies own their
29:12
Speaker 3: minor league teams. Obviously Admirals are independently owned.
29:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know, and I didn't. I didn't know
29:17
Speaker 2: that some franchises.
29:18
Speaker 3: I think that's the way that works. I could be told,
29:21
Speaker 3: I could be wrong, but I think that's the way
29:22
Speaker 3: it works. So, and that's why there's a lot of
29:24
Speaker 3: the parent clubs that have similar names and color schemes.
29:27
Speaker 3: For instance, the Admirals are playing the San Jose Barracuda,
29:30
Speaker 3: not the Sharks. So like a smaller version of a fish.
29:32
Speaker 3: That's me And you know what I mean.
29:34
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was snarkling off of Cosmel one year and
29:37
Speaker 6: the dude took us down to he pointed at this
29:40
Speaker 6: fish and and it turned out it was a barracuda,
29:42
Speaker 6: and and and I was like, I can't really see it,
29:45
Speaker 6: and oh, he grabbed this thing by the taip, pulled
29:47
Speaker 6: it out of its little cave.
29:49
Speaker 2: When I saw the teeth, I'm like, put it back.
29:51
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's a great story. Yeah, no thanks,
29:54
Speaker 2: no thanks, no thanks.
29:55
Speaker 4: Billy doesn't want to be around seafood when it live
29:58
Speaker 4: for him or even battered in fried.
30:00
Speaker 2: He doesn't want to be around any sea.
30:02
Speaker 3: No, I I do.
30:03
Speaker 5: There's there's there's too much we do not know about
30:06
Speaker 5: what's going on under that water. Everybody's all worried about
30:09
Speaker 5: what's going on in the extra terrestrial. I don't think
30:12
Speaker 5: we're understanding and worried about what the threat is and
30:14
Speaker 5: what is going on underneath that truth.
30:17
Speaker 3: Billy looks at seef with the waid that McDonald's CEO
30:19
Speaker 3: looked at his new burger.
30:21
Speaker 4: Yes, oh baby, I gotta try one of those, though.
30:26
Speaker 4: Isn't it basically a double quarter pound or big max sauce?
30:28
Speaker 2: Looks like it looks like it. I'd be bad for
30:30
Speaker 2: days if I try. I got to try one, though,
30:34
Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you.
30:35
Speaker 5: After our conversation yesterday and the fifteen hundred ads that
30:38
Speaker 5: I then saw for Whoppers and Whopper juniors off of
30:40
Speaker 5: our Yeah, that's gonna be. Your devices are spying on
30:44
Speaker 5: you big brother software Dobblers, says burg King's announcing that
30:46
Speaker 5: they're increasing the size of the whopper, and if that's
30:49
Speaker 5: an over reaction, I don't care. Because he rising tide
30:51
Speaker 5: lifts all boats lifts all some of those sandwiches are
30:53
Speaker 5: getting smaller.
30:54
Speaker 6: Look at the flail fish. It's almost my problem with

32:26
Speaker 2: It was a relative on the team, Billy.
32:30
Speaker 3: But the important thing is all the kids had fun.

Speaker 3: They played with sportsmanship and class. This is not about
32:35
Speaker 3: winning and losing. Right, last night wasn't about who won.

Speaker 3: just get me out of his office.
33:46
Speaker 2: How high school arming was exactly like today, not much.

Speaker 2: This is gonna be the Shamrocks Shuffle.
34:46
Speaker 3: Yes, when you get the anime kids in there with
34:48
Speaker 3: the Shamrocks at it's gonna be.
34:51
Speaker 6: I was looking at the Sports Show and they've got
34:52
Speaker 6: that that the trout pond, which is there of year
34:54
Speaker 6: the kids can fish. But they also they were building
34:57
Speaker 6: something called the hog Trough, which apparently is the massive
35:00
Speaker 6: aquarium where professional fishers. You see them sitting on top
35:04
Speaker 6: and they try to catch fish in this hog trough.
35:06
Speaker 6: I'm intrigued by that. There's all kinds of fish, different
35:09
Speaker 6: types of fish. That are in there and that they
35:11
Speaker 6: that they're trying to catch. I guess it's it's like
35:12
Speaker 6: a tournament competition right there at the Sports Show.
35:15
Speaker 2: I'm interested in that.
35:15
Speaker 5: I did stay away from State Fair Park last week
35:18
Speaker 5: because it was the RV Show and I had a
35:20
Speaker 5: feeling I was potentially going to get RV showed if
35:22
Speaker 5: I went awesome.
35:23
Speaker 2: Armond remembers last year I got.
35:25
Speaker 5: I got the major ish itch to uh to become
35:27
Speaker 5: an RV guy the Sports Show that that trout Pond
35:31
Speaker 5: is the one Dolph that I'll go fishing.
35:33
Speaker 2: That's the one that we'll we'll throw a rod and
35:35
Speaker 2: well we'll get the youngster over on.
35:36
Speaker 6: Now. I remember years ago though, down at the Mecca
35:37
Speaker 6: when it used to be downtown, when they still had
35:39
Speaker 6: that that old convention center. Yeah, you'd walk in there.
35:42
Speaker 6: By about the last day that trout pond was getting
35:44
Speaker 6: pretty ripe.
35:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was rough. Yeah, they just kill me.
35:50
Speaker 4: Now you know we've done remotes from there, We've done
35:53
Speaker 4: oh yeah, oh yeah, boy, that's a staple.
35:55
Speaker 6: I had forgotten about that old Mecca complex where they
35:57
Speaker 6: had to walk across the row and uh to the arena, right.
36:03
Speaker 5: But uh, it does look like we can have we
36:05
Speaker 5: could get another matchup. Oh yeah, well they're in this
36:09
Speaker 5: the the Witnell Boys and the Greenfield Boys are the
36:12
Speaker 5: five and six seed in the same section. Evenly, Matt,
36:15
Speaker 5: they both need a pair of upsets. Witnell is gonna
36:18
Speaker 5: take on Greendale tonight. I'm cheering for Witnel on and
36:21
Speaker 5: then Whitnell would have to knock off the one seed
36:23
Speaker 5: Waterford to be able to reach a matchup of Greenfield
36:27
Speaker 5: if they can survive Milwaukee Bayview and Greendale.
36:31
Speaker 2: Martin Lewis, I want. I want to see the rematch
36:32
Speaker 2: just so I can get the h the ancillary glazers.
36:37
Speaker 4: I don't have any I don't have any skin in
36:39
Speaker 4: this game, but I got a glazer in my hands
36:43
Speaker 4: for you. Yeah. Absolutely. Moving on from DJ Moore Tremaine Edwards,
36:47
Speaker 4: the the NFL comes at you fast, What sure does?
36:51
Speaker 2: Did you? D? J Moore wasn't really surprising.
36:54
Speaker 6: I guess if you listen to all the Bears insiders,
36:56
Speaker 6: it was He's gonna make twenty eight point six million
36:58
Speaker 6: dollars issue by far and way, the Bears highest paid player.
37:01
Speaker 6: But I thought that was a good deal for both teams.
37:04
Speaker 6: I mean, I think he'll be really yeah. Yeah, and
37:07
Speaker 6: you know you saw what he can be. But you
37:09
Speaker 6: know the numbers. I mean, the Bears have drafted well
37:11
Speaker 6: and they got some young horses behind him. There's three
37:14
Speaker 6: that come to mind that are gonna be really good
37:16
Speaker 6: if they stay healthy.
37:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, in a pair that were drafted by the head coach.
37:19
Speaker 5: Like you could tell that there was there was a
37:22
Speaker 5: lot of that conversation that well one was in with
37:25
Speaker 5: the crew and the other one might.
37:26
Speaker 2: Not have been it.
37:27
Speaker 6: And remember he was nothing but good while he was there.
37:30
Speaker 6: But he was kind of a bonus throw in in
37:32
Speaker 6: that deal with Carolina. They wanted the number one pick
37:35
Speaker 6: and we got the number picks and oh, by the way,
37:37
Speaker 6: you can have DJ Moore as well.
37:39
Speaker 2: Pretty awesome. He was a thousand yard receivers first year there.
37:42
Speaker 5: Yeah, that that that trade worked out pretty well in
37:45
Speaker 5: all totality for the Bears.
37:46
Speaker 2: If you if you piece all the pieces of it together.
37:49
Speaker 6: Tremaine Edwin's a great leader in the locker room. You
37:52
Speaker 6: lose Dolmond the center. I mean, these are guys and
37:54
Speaker 6: Domond played every snap.
37:55
Speaker 2: Coore guys. Yeah, those are core guys. So we'll see
37:58
Speaker 2: how the and by the way.
37:59
Speaker 6: Now you're gonna be playing a more difficult schedule, first
38:01
Speaker 6: place schedule. I saw the Vegas over and under his
38:04
Speaker 6: nine I think nine and a half.
38:05
Speaker 5: That trade ended up as Panthers getting Bryce Young, Bears,
38:09
Speaker 5: Caleb Williams, Darnel Right, Tyrek Steverson, Tyrek Stevenson, Luther Burden,
38:13
Speaker 5: and a twenty twenty six second They won, yeah, oh yeah,
38:17
