- 0:25Speaker 2: Jeff Lagwald of ESPN dot com. Leggy, how are we?
- 0:30Speaker 3: I'm good? Are you guys doing good?
- 0:32Speaker 2: Vick's down there at Radio Row in San Francisco. I
- 0:35Speaker 2: got a question for you, though, because I've seen a
- 0:36Speaker 2: lot of Broncos fans the discussion of acquiring more talent,
- 0:41Speaker 2: especially at the skill position level. There's two names that
- 0:44Speaker 2: I've seen repeated that I want no part of, and
- 0:47Speaker 2: I think that you would agree with me, Babe, Maybe not.
- 0:50Speaker 2: It's AJ Brown and George Pickens. I don't like the
- 0:53Speaker 2: personality fit. I don't want those guys in the locker room.
- 0:55Speaker 2: I know they're supreme talents, but is there something that
- 0:58Speaker 2: would push you away from just a in attitude in
- 1:03Speaker 2: ego standpoint with them.
- 1:06Speaker 4: Well, I think the head coach might have some questions
- 1:08Speaker 4: for both of them. Yeah, you know, and I think
- 1:10Speaker 4: that's the real question. Doesn't much matter what I think.
- 1:15Speaker 4: Just knowing Sean Payton, I think he would he would
- 1:18Speaker 4: have plenty of questions for those guys. Doesn't mean he
- 1:21Speaker 4: wouldn't do it, doesn't mean he wouldn't think he could
- 1:24Speaker 4: coach him. It just would mean he would have a
- 1:27Speaker 4: lot of questions for And look, Pickens. Pickens is going
- 1:30Speaker 4: to take you know, top of the market money. And
- 1:36Speaker 4: we've seen the Broncos spend at a lot of positions
- 1:41Speaker 4: so far, but we haven't seen them give a receiver
- 1:44Speaker 4: or running back top of the market money. So I
- 1:47Speaker 4: think that would be a departure of you know, where
- 1:52Speaker 4: they've gone.
- 1:54Speaker 2: They need a departure though, Like do they need to
- 1:57Speaker 2: go out and like really emphasize a wide receiver, a
- 2:00Speaker 2: tight end of running back that is.
- 2:04Speaker 4: You know those I think they want to up the
- 2:07Speaker 4: ante on offense, and they certainly have more salary cap
- 2:11Speaker 4: room and all their and they got more cash than
- 2:13Speaker 4: anybody in the league. So yeah, if they want to
- 2:15Speaker 4: play to spend the money game, you know, they certainly can.
- 2:20Speaker 4: But I don't think, uh, I don't think free agency
- 2:25Speaker 4: is the cure all and we see it every year,
- 2:27Speaker 4: and I know we all love it because it's familiar names,
- 2:32Speaker 4: you know, the resumes. But uh, you know, well, aj
- 2:37Speaker 4: Brown played better for his next team than he has
- 2:41Speaker 4: you know, for his previous ones. History has shown most
- 2:45Speaker 4: free agents at that age don't play better than they did,
- 2:51Speaker 4: and you're giving them money that says play better, don't
- 2:55Speaker 4: play the same, play better.
- 2:57Speaker 5: Leg Monday night, Luca Evan of The Post speaking to
- 3:01Speaker 5: Stefan Diggs. Diggs admitted that the Broncos almost signed him
- 3:06Speaker 5: in the offseason to a free agent contract, but he
- 3:09Speaker 5: was stolen away by the Patriots, who ultimately offered him
- 3:12Speaker 5: more money at the same rate. When they're making these
- 3:15Speaker 5: runs at these marquee receivers they didn't sign one doesn't
- 3:18Speaker 5: say that they're not going to try this offseason. Do
- 3:20Speaker 5: you think a playmaker is their number one target here,
- 3:24Speaker 5: whether it be a running back or receiver.
- 3:26Speaker 6: Is that where they're headed in free agency?
- 3:29Speaker 4: Well, you know, you know the short answer is yes.
- 3:32Speaker 4: You can't say it isn't. I mean the stat I
- 3:35Speaker 4: keep telling or saying is catches receptions of ten yards
- 3:42Speaker 4: or more, you know, twenty yards or more, twenty yards
- 3:46Speaker 4: or more explosive plays They have one player in the
- 3:51Speaker 4: league's top forty eight man one Courtland Sutton, and that's it.
- 3:57Speaker 4: So yeah, you need more pop on offense. But you know,
- 4:02Speaker 4: I know defensive coaches in the league that would say
- 4:06Speaker 4: some of it is they've gotten not much out of
- 4:09Speaker 4: the tight end position the last three years. This one's
- 4:13Speaker 4: you know Ingram had a lot of catches, but they
- 4:17Speaker 4: didn't have a tight end average ten yards of reception.
- 4:21Speaker 4: That's not impactful in today's league. So yeah, they need
- 4:25Speaker 4: more impact. It's just a matter of are you going
- 4:28Speaker 4: to give the people the snaps you know? Now, you
- 4:31Speaker 4: know in his days in New Orleans when he had
- 4:34Speaker 4: Michael Thomas, Michael Thomas got tons of targets and tons
- 4:38Speaker 4: of receptions and tons of receiving yards and.
- 4:43Speaker 3: A whole lot of plays.
- 4:45Speaker 4: But he has not shown maybe because he hasn't had
- 4:48Speaker 4: that kind of player, but he hasn't shown the proclivity
- 4:51Speaker 4: here to give somebody the kind of snaps you're gonna
- 4:55Speaker 4: have to give them if you're going to spend big money.
- 4:58Speaker 4: So I you think they'll be on the hunt for impact.
- 5:02Speaker 4: And the issue is this is not a tremendous draft
- 5:07Speaker 4: on offense. Defensively, it's loaded, and that's the issue for
- 5:12Speaker 4: the Broncos' It's loaded on the wrong side of the
- 5:15Speaker 4: ball on draft day. Doesn't mean you can't find guys
- 5:19Speaker 4: you like. Certainly at receiver there's a lot of receivers
- 5:22Speaker 4: as always, but this is a heavily weighted draft to
- 5:27Speaker 4: the defensive side of the ball, and I just go
- 5:30Speaker 4: to the senior ball. Doesn't mean everything. But I stood
- 5:33Speaker 4: there for two days and watched every drill and every
- 5:37Speaker 4: eleven on eleven won by defense.
- 5:41Speaker 2: Jeff Lake one with this ESPN dot Com all conversations
- 5:44Speaker 2: with LEGI you brought to you by the International Brotherhood
- 5:46Speaker 2: of Electrical Workers IBW Local sixty eight, start with the
- 5:49Speaker 2: job and with a career. If they had to go
- 5:52Speaker 2: back to last year's draft, did they make the same selection?
- 5:56Speaker 6: You know?
- 5:56Speaker 4: I did that for us and our exercise, and I
- 5:59Speaker 4: took John really because he was a top ten player
- 6:04Speaker 4: on their board when they took him the first time,
- 6:07Speaker 4: and he would still be a top ten player on
- 6:09Speaker 4: their board the way it shook out now, when we
- 6:11Speaker 4: did the exercise at ESPN with all the team reporters,
- 6:17Speaker 4: Ashton genty was still on the board, so to me.
- 6:20Speaker 3: That was the toughest call, was do you just give
- 6:23Speaker 3: him Jilly or Baron?
- 6:26Speaker 4: But I gave him Barn because when they took Harvey,
- 6:30Speaker 4: they said privately and publicly he was the target at
- 6:35Speaker 4: running back. So whether or not you want to assume
- 6:39Speaker 4: they just thought we're not getting genty anyway, you know
- 6:42Speaker 4: in that scenario.
- 6:44Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, that's that's the issue.
- 6:46Speaker 4: But I took Barn anyway because he was a top
- 6:49Speaker 4: ten player on their board and would have been in
- 6:54Speaker 4: the scenario we had going.
- 6:56Speaker 5: Hey, did you see the photos Byron posted on Instagram?
- 7:00Speaker 5: He was it looked like in the hospital for some
- 7:02Speaker 5: surgical procedure.
- 7:03Speaker 6: Do you have any insight on that.
- 7:05Speaker 3: I don't.
- 7:06Speaker 4: I was told he had, so, you know, obviously he
- 7:10Speaker 4: showed it. But but that's pretty common for players. I
- 7:14Speaker 4: would guess ten or eleven guys had some kind of
- 7:18Speaker 4: clean up procedure after the season, and I was told
- 7:23Speaker 4: they had several. That was the word I was given several,
- 7:27Speaker 4: and none were concerning to them about being ready to
- 7:31Speaker 4: start OTAs and the off season program.
- 7:35Speaker 2: Legy, allow me a second to get this question out,
- 7:38Speaker 2: because it's long wind. Didn't I apologize? I'm filling the
- 7:40Speaker 2: role of mosure today?
- 7:41Speaker 6: Are you going full more? Let me time this question,
- 7:43Speaker 6: hold on a second, let me get.
- 7:44Speaker 2: It, get time or get a time? Are you ready?
- 7:46Speaker 6: Save? Ready? Good?
- 7:48Speaker 2: So this super Bowl, I don't know if it's like
- 7:50Speaker 2: there's a lack of oomph because of we look at
- 7:54Speaker 2: this traditionally as quarterback matchups, and maybe Sam Donald versus
- 7:57Speaker 2: Drake May isn't as sexy as like Josh Allen versus
- 7:59Speaker 2: Matt Stafford. Do you think it's that or is it
- 8:03Speaker 2: that people assume that Seattle's going to win this game
- 8:06Speaker 2: pretty easily.
- 8:08Speaker 5: That's only nineteen seconds. That's a short question, long for me, probably.
- 8:13Speaker 4: A little about you know, and I think, you know,
- 8:16Speaker 4: it's hard. I think it's hard to gauge, you know,
- 8:20Speaker 4: the buzz of Super Bowl. I mean it's it's covered
- 8:24Speaker 4: differently now. I think the week is it's almost like
- 8:28Speaker 4: people are tired by the time they get to Friday.
- 8:32Speaker 3: Today and Friday.
- 8:34Speaker 4: But you know, I think as many people are going
- 8:37Speaker 4: to watch the super Bowl as always.
- 8:40Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't know.
- 8:42Speaker 4: If these two teams have that, you know, do you
- 8:45Speaker 4: have a Joe Burrow, you know, Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes
- 8:51Speaker 4: type of player.
- 8:52Speaker 2: It's always kind of tied to. It's always tied to
- 8:54Speaker 2: like legacy of the quarterbacks. Like if Josh Allen got
- 8:57Speaker 2: his first one, that's a huge thing. If Stafford gets
- 8:59Speaker 2: his second, then where is he all time in your
- 9:01Speaker 2: quarterback rankings?
- 9:03Speaker 4: But it's dark exactly, and you know, and it's kind
- 9:06Speaker 4: of like I think the rest of America is trying
- 9:09Speaker 4: to wrestle with the idea that New England.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Made it without Tom Brady.
- 9:13Speaker 4: So you know, is this going to be a problem
- 9:17Speaker 4: type of thing for other fans? But uh yeah, you know,
- 9:21Speaker 4: And I think defensive teams sometimes do this, you know,
- 9:25Speaker 4: they don't have snazzy nicknames and and the rest of it.
- 9:28Speaker 4: But I think a lot of the Super Bowls, like
- 9:31Speaker 4: a lot of the season sometimes it's it's very quarterback
- 9:34Speaker 4: driven in the public domain because you've got a lot
- 9:37Speaker 4: of people who might not be fans of either team
- 9:41Speaker 4: that are that are looking in.
- 9:43Speaker 6: All right, h let me show you how to ask
- 9:45Speaker 6: a long question.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Right, let me get my time or hang on a second,
- 9:49Speaker 2: get your time around there. Two one go Leggie.
- 9:53Speaker 5: A lot has been said about who's going to be
- 9:55Speaker 5: calling the plays next year for the Denver Broncos, and
- 9:57Speaker 5: Sean Payton has been, you know, one of the best
- 9:59Speaker 5: players callers in the history of the game. He's proven
- 10:02Speaker 5: that he's done it for so many years. But Davis
- 10:03Speaker 5: Webb is now emerged. And we thought that Davis Webb
- 10:06Speaker 5: would have the opportunity to do here when Joe Lombardi
- 10:09Speaker 5: was cast aside, and we assumed at that point the hey,
- 10:12Speaker 5: they're doing it because Davis Webb is going to be
- 10:15Speaker 5: the new OC. And the only reason Davis web sticks
- 10:18Speaker 5: around is if he's given some opportunity to call play.
- 10:20Speaker 5: So let's say he does call the plays at the
- 10:23Speaker 5: end of the day, Who's going to make the final
- 10:26Speaker 5: say on that play? Is it going to be Sean Payton,
- 10:29Speaker 5: the ultimate play caller who goes to bed with that
- 10:32Speaker 5: play sheeting his head in his hand. Or is it
- 10:34Speaker 5: going to be Davis Webb, who's the new found youthful
- 10:37Speaker 5: talent boyd by all this energy now is he going
- 10:41Speaker 5: to be calling the play? Who is the guy at
- 10:43Speaker 5: the end of the day? LEGI I mean when you
- 10:46Speaker 5: go home at night, you're probably thinking about this. You're
- 10:49Speaker 5: thinking about it like the rest of us. Are you
- 10:51Speaker 5: thinking about it right now?
- 10:52Speaker 6: Or not.
- 10:52Speaker 5: I don't know, But who do you think has the
- 10:54Speaker 5: ultimate say on play calling duties next year when the
- 10:58Speaker 5: Denver Broncos go to training camp and beyond.
- 11:02Speaker 2: One.
- 11:03Speaker 4: I was thinking about it when you started the question
- 11:06Speaker 4: and then I lost him. No, I don't think you know,
- 11:11Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't want to speak for him,
- 11:13Speaker 4: but I don't think Sean's decided. I think that would
- 11:15Speaker 4: be you know, the finality of it. There's no way
- 11:21Speaker 4: he and Davis Webb didn't have that discussion as Davis
- 11:25Speaker 4: Webb decides to stay you know here, But how that
- 11:29Speaker 4: would look on game day.
- 11:31Speaker 3: It would be uh.
- 11:33Speaker 4: I don't think people sort of would think about it
- 11:36Speaker 4: much because they don't have to.
- 11:37Speaker 3: But this, this would be.
- 11:39Speaker 4: A departure from how Sean Payton has constructed his week.
- 11:45Speaker 3: As an NFL head coach.
- 11:47Speaker 4: Everything he does in terms of when his meetings are,
- 11:51Speaker 4: how practice is set up, all of it is predicated
- 11:56Speaker 4: on the fact he's got to be the head coach
- 11:59Speaker 4: and get everything ready to be the play caller on
- 12:03Speaker 4: game day. So for him not to call plays would
- 12:07Speaker 4: take a restructuring.
- 12:10Speaker 3: How of how he does his whole week, and you
- 12:15Speaker 3: know it changes him.
- 12:17Speaker 6: It changes him from being around.
- 12:18Speaker 4: Him for three years, it would be an immense decision,
- 12:21Speaker 4: and on game day it's hard for me to imagine
- 12:24Speaker 4: him sitting on his hands and not wanting that last
- 12:29Speaker 4: word on the headset at some point.
- 12:32Speaker 3: But doesn't mean they can't work it out and won't
- 12:36Speaker 3: work it out.
- 12:37Speaker 4: And you know they're gonna have to have a system, uh,
- 12:41Speaker 4: because you got to call plays and it's got to
- 12:43Speaker 4: be smoother. And frankly, they got to get stuff in
- 12:47Speaker 4: sooner than they did this year and they know it.
- 12:50Speaker 4: They know teams took advantage of them because they couldn't
- 12:55Speaker 4: get their stuff in on time. But it would take
- 12:58Speaker 4: a significant change for how Peyton approaches the game week, during.
- 13:03Speaker 3: The game, how he is on the headset.
- 13:06Speaker 4: But he often tells stories of when Parcells gave him
- 13:11Speaker 4: play calling duties of you know, the clicking noises and
- 13:17Speaker 4: you know, the cussing, the how could you call that?
- 13:21Speaker 3: And as the plays.
- 13:22Speaker 4: Being called, So you know, he's lived through this kind
- 13:26Speaker 4: of thing. On the other side of it, you know
- 13:28Speaker 4: where Davis Web would be if they did it. But
- 13:33Speaker 4: he thinks an awful lot of Davis Web and of
- 13:36Speaker 4: all the people who've worked for him over the years.
- 13:40Speaker 3: I think Davis Webb.
- 13:41Speaker 4: Is in a far different position with Sean Payton on
- 13:44Speaker 4: this than Pete Carmichael or Joe Lombardi were in all
- 13:49Speaker 4: their time with the Saints.
- 13:50Speaker 3: So I don't know.
- 13:53Speaker 4: That he'll totally give it up, but I think certainly
- 13:56Speaker 4: he'll give it more consideration than he has in the past.
- 14:00Speaker 2: Did Max Crosby play his last game as a Raider?
- 14:03Speaker 4: Well, he's certainly telling people I know in the league
- 14:05Speaker 4: he has, but that's you know, that's not really up
- 14:09Speaker 4: to him. He's got a contract, so you know, it's
- 14:13Speaker 4: the old the old thing. Do you want an unhappy
- 14:16Speaker 4: player around or you want to get as much draft
- 14:18Speaker 4: capital as you can. You're the Raiders. You appear to
- 14:22Speaker 4: be in a nice little rebuild mode. You got the
- 14:25Speaker 4: number one pick of the draft, and you could probably
- 14:27Speaker 4: get some more ones or at least but more twos
- 14:32Speaker 4: if you trade Max Crosby. So I think an awful
- 14:35Speaker 4: lot of people I know in the league think before
- 14:38Speaker 4: the draft that may be something that heats up.
- 14:40Speaker 2: What do you think the QBAC to the Raiders thing
- 14:42Speaker 2: does for him?
- 14:46Speaker 4: I think he's you know, it's just a question of
- 14:47Speaker 4: are you ready to manage the whole thing. But he's
- 14:51Speaker 4: one of the smartest young coaches I've ever been around,
- 14:54Speaker 4: and I certainly think the world of his dad and.
- 14:59Speaker 3: That offense.
- 15:00Speaker 4: That offense is proven and uh, I don't know, you know,
- 15:04Speaker 4: it's in the Super Bowl again. So I think he's
- 15:08Speaker 4: got a good chance. You know, it's just a question
- 15:10Speaker 4: of what kind of good infrastructure you're going to have
- 15:13Speaker 4: around him.
- 15:13Speaker 3: I think Spy Tech.
- 15:14Speaker 4: Is a is a really good football guy at GM,
- 15:19Speaker 4: so he got a chance at acquiring players. But you
- 15:22Speaker 4: got to get the owner on the page of let's
- 15:25Speaker 4: build this right, let's not freak out.
- 15:28Speaker 5: Uh.
- 15:28Speaker 4: And we don't know if Tom Brady or anyone else
- 15:30Speaker 4: can can get Mark Davis.
- 15:32Speaker 3: To do that.
- 15:33Speaker 5: Jeff Label, I've got one last one. In the history
- 15:35Speaker 5: of football, do you remember the coaching ranks being so
- 15:40Speaker 5: well family oriented as they are today? Everybody's a son
- 15:44Speaker 5: or grandson of another coach, and that I've never seen
- 15:47Speaker 5: anything like it.
- 15:49Speaker 4: Well, I do know if if you were a young
- 15:51Speaker 4: minority coach, you were wondering what the hell you've got
- 15:54Speaker 4: to do to be a to be a head coach.
- 15:57Speaker 4: But yeah, no, I don't think anyone would would have
- 16:01Speaker 4: a problem with any Kubiaks, you know, being being head coaches.
- 16:05Speaker 4: So I don't want to imply that, but I know
- 16:08Speaker 4: I know personally some coaches who look at ten openings
- 16:13Speaker 4: and and look at who got them and and see
- 16:17Speaker 4: a lot of people who passed over, who were more
- 16:19Speaker 4: experienced or whatever. But it's it's the way we're at.
- 16:23Speaker 4: I mean, I think people in the NFL have always
- 16:25Speaker 4: said it's it's who you know. And you know, Nathaniel
- 16:30Speaker 4: Hackett's going to be an offensive coordinator, yeah next season.
- 16:34Speaker 4: So and I think that's an example people point too
- 16:37Speaker 4: as well.
- 16:38Speaker 5: We have two Harballs coaching in the league. We have
- 16:40Speaker 5: two who was just tired in Arizona, the floor. We
- 16:45Speaker 5: have two floors coaching in the league.
- 16:48Speaker 2: So here's my question, LEGI if I legally changed my
- 16:51Speaker 2: name to Shanahan and put down on my resume that
- 16:54Speaker 2: I was under the McVeigh coaching tree, am I a
- 16:56Speaker 2: head coach next year?
- 16:59Speaker 4: Even before for you you finished changing your name, you know,
- 17:04Speaker 4: I think you would be a head coach. I think
- 17:07Speaker 4: it's it's a I think I just had someone, a
- 17:10Speaker 4: team president tell me this the other day, But I
- 17:13Speaker 4: think I think it's true that every coordinator Sean McVay
- 17:18Speaker 4: has had in LA as a head coach, I think
- 17:21Speaker 4: been a head coach has been hired as a head coach.
- 17:24Speaker 4: So you can tell what people are looking for, you know,
- 17:28Speaker 4: so whether or not that's the way it should be,
- 17:31Speaker 4: but you can tell what people are looking.
- 17:34Speaker 6: For, fellas.
- 17:34Speaker 5: I think Jerry Rice just showed up at the media
- 17:38Speaker 5: center in a bow tie.
- 17:39Speaker 6: Was that, Jerry? Yeah?
- 17:44Speaker 5: Yeah, he will be known as a former Bronco forevery
- 17:47Speaker 5: do you remember, Leggy, what jersey number he wore as
- 17:50Speaker 5: a Bronco?
- 17:51Speaker 3: It was crazy? A seventeen. I was a weird number.
- 17:54Speaker 3: I can't remember.
- 17:55Speaker 6: I can't remember. Somebody will have the answer to that.
- 17:57Speaker 3: But he won seventeen, but I can't remember.
- 18:00Speaker 6: The preseason nineteen nineteen.

- 20:10Speaker 2: keep listening all day on the twenties for those keywords
- 20:14Speaker 2: for every show. Can't you say something real quick? There's
- 20:17Speaker 2: a lot of music that's like older and I understand
- 20:19Speaker 2: why it was popular. I've just never gotten the Elvis thing,
- 20:22Speaker 2: never understood it, not for me.
- 20:25Speaker 5: Well, there's a lot that's not for me. It's for somebody,
- 20:30Speaker 5: for a lot of it. Because for somebody it may
- 20:32Speaker 5: not be for you. But if for somebody, like.
- 20:37Speaker 3: I get it.
- 20:38Speaker 5: But there's a lot that's not for me either, Like
- 20:40Speaker 5: stuff like the Rolling Stones not for me.
- 20:42Speaker 6: I don't get it.
- 20:43Speaker 5: Also not for me the Who, stuff like that, I
- 20:45Speaker 5: don't get it.
- 20:46Speaker 7: Get out all these bad rock and roll takes before
- 20:48Speaker 7: Moser comes back. You got got two weeks exactly.
- 20:50Speaker 5: I'm saying it now because if we were to say
- 20:52Speaker 5: that amid if we're in the saying this in the
- 20:55Speaker 5: in the presence of Moser, he'd leave the show.
- 20:57Speaker 2: But just musically, musically, Ellie the music guy, if Elvis
- 21:02Speaker 2: didn't have the shimmy shake that made all the girls
- 21:05Speaker 2: go who back in the day that nobody did, just musically,
- 21:09Speaker 2: would he be as popular if it was if he
- 21:11Speaker 2: didn't have the whole you know what?
- 21:13Speaker 6: He was the first pop star before popstars.
- 21:15Speaker 2: I get it, I get it. But how much of
- 21:17Speaker 2: that was persona and dance as opposed to song, That's
- 21:20Speaker 2: all I'm asking.
- 21:21Speaker 7: I don't know, man, I mean, he was he was
- 21:23Speaker 7: a trailblazer. He was the first to do it. The
- 21:25Speaker 7: legend is when he went into Sun Records in Memphis,
- 21:29Speaker 7: hence why it's that keyword. The guy asked him, Okay,
- 21:32Speaker 7: you're gonna cut an audition tape here.
- 21:34Speaker 6: Who do you? Who do you sound like like? Describe
- 21:36Speaker 6: your sound?
- 21:36Speaker 7: And he just said, sir, I don't sound like nobody,
- 21:40Speaker 7: because he knew he was different.
- 21:42Speaker 2: Okay, hang on a second. This is gonna this is
- 21:45Speaker 2: gonna make so many people mad when I say this.
- 21:48Speaker 2: Elvis was Ice Spice before Ice Spice. Alright, music stinks,
- 21:55Speaker 2: but you go up on stage and you twork a
- 21:57Speaker 2: little bit and then people lose their minds. Have you
- 22:01Speaker 2: heard any Ice By song?
- 22:07Speaker 6: You will have it.
- 22:08Speaker 5: If you want to enrage people, And if you want
- 22:10Speaker 5: to arrange people on this show, let's get into the
- 22:13Speaker 5: top halftime acts in Super Bowl history and that'll get
- 22:17Speaker 5: people going.
- 22:17Speaker 2: I think that's easy.
- 22:18Speaker 5: Hey, hey, Jesse, bad Bunny upstairs is having this press
- 22:21Speaker 5: conference today or tomorrow?
- 22:23Speaker 6: Is it today or tomorrow? Today? It's gonna be insane
- 22:25Speaker 6: up there.
- 22:25Speaker 5: You realize that, So you know, I just introduce that
- 22:29Speaker 5: topic and this show will go crazy.
- 22:32Speaker 2: Well, here's my I have one problem with Bad Bunny.
- 22:38Speaker 2: I've never heard his music, and it's not my language,
- 22:41Speaker 2: so it's hard for me to like get I mean,
- 22:46Speaker 2: it's not I got nothing against the guy.
- 22:48Speaker 6: That's the funniest thing I've ever heard.
- 22:50Speaker 2: I've never heard his songs and I don't know what
- 22:54Speaker 2: the words are because I don't speak with language. I
- 22:58Speaker 2: just I feel like it's pretty easy, like if I win. Look, man,
- 23:03Speaker 2: if you go to Japan and it's like, hey, it's whatever.
- 23:06Speaker 2: Japan's biggest sporting event is probably the Japanese World Series
- 23:10Speaker 2: and you're like, here, it's Randy Travis. I'm sure they'd
- 23:14Speaker 2: be like, I don't but I don't get it because
- 23:16Speaker 2: I don't speak English. That's all I'm saying. I don't
- 23:21Speaker 2: I know nothing against Bad Bunny at all. I just
- 23:23Speaker 2: it's not again, not for me, because I can't understand
- 23:26Speaker 2: the words.
- 23:27Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 23:28Speaker 5: Well, I've been to seventeen of these, and the one
- 23:33Speaker 5: I'll remember the most in terms of halftime entertainment, the
- 23:36Speaker 5: one to me that stands alone is Prince in the
- 23:39Speaker 5: Rain in Miami.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Yeah, Prince Bruno.
- 23:43Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what, I had the same one and two,
- 23:45Speaker 5: the same one and two, and I got People were
- 23:48Speaker 5: like ripping me for that. First of all, you can't
- 23:51Speaker 5: and nobody compares with Prince. Just the atmosphere at the time.
- 23:54Speaker 5: It was raining, yeah, and he was singing purple Rain Rain. Yeah,
- 23:58Speaker 5: he did a private concert with us. I was working
- 24:00Speaker 5: for CBS at the time. He did a private concert
- 24:02Speaker 5: two days earlier.
- 24:03Speaker 6: On the beach in Miami. That was unreal.
- 24:06Speaker 5: I mean, I'm as close to Prince as I am
- 24:08Speaker 5: to Jesse right here, right, and then he's there at
- 24:10Speaker 5: the super Bowl.
- 24:11Speaker 6: So that's number one.
- 24:13Speaker 2: I'm not doing that with CB.
- 24:14Speaker 1: That's next question.
- 24:17Speaker 6: After that, they're all about the same. Yeah, I don't care.
- 24:20Speaker 2: I here's why I put Bruno there. And I've seen
- 24:23Speaker 2: Bruno in concert before. It feels like the only time
- 24:26Speaker 2: I couldn't ever watch Prince. But it felt like I
- 24:30Speaker 2: was watching Prince because he did everything. He played every instrument,
- 24:34Speaker 2: he sang live, and he did it almost like studio quality.
- 24:38Speaker 2: He was dancing the whole time. It was amazing.
- 24:41Speaker 6: I did, like somebody mentioned Dre and Friends. That was great.
- 24:45Speaker 6: That was great.
- 24:46Speaker 2: It didn't audience, but it was a great niche audience
- 24:49Speaker 2: for that one.
- 24:50Speaker 5: Yeah, but it was I liked it too. Yeah, I
- 24:53Speaker 5: don't know what to do. With the Bunny guy because
- 24:56Speaker 5: I don't know his music either. I don't know where
- 24:58Speaker 5: to go with that. You what's his name?
- 25:02Speaker 2: Do you know how I know bad Bunny? Honestly, where
- 25:05Speaker 2: I know him most from is Narcos. He was on
- 25:08Speaker 2: Narcos Mexico, though the last season.
- 25:10Speaker 6: Was Yes, who do you play?
- 25:12Speaker 2: I should know he was one of the He was
- 25:14Speaker 2: like a rich kid who was a hitman sort of thing.
- 25:17Speaker 6: I feel bad that I don't know that.
- 25:19Speaker 2: If you watch it again, you'll see it. You'll be like,
- 25:21Speaker 2: oh my god, this is bad Bunny. How about three
- 25:25Speaker 2: h three five oh four oh nine two five chop
- 25:28Speaker 2: maz De text line textas says Britt, you go to
- 25:30Speaker 2: Mexico and enjoy the music there, what's the difference. It's
- 25:32Speaker 2: very true. I I love everything about Mexican culture. I
- 25:34Speaker 2: love the food, I love the music. I love mariachi bands.
- 25:38Speaker 2: But if I'm doing a halftime show, I think you
- 25:41Speaker 2: want wide appeal. That's all I'm saying. And if you
- 25:45Speaker 2: can't speak the language, it's a tough thing for some
- 25:46Speaker 2: people to overcome, including myself.
- 25:48Speaker 7: He just won an Album of the Year at the Grammys.
- 25:50Speaker 7: There are some people who like him man, No.
- 25:52Speaker 2: I understand he's very, very popular. I get again, don't
- 25:55Speaker 2: misconstrue this with me saying I hate Bad Bunny.
- 25:57Speaker 6: I don't.
- 25:58Speaker 2: I have no feelings towards Bad Bunny.
- 26:00Speaker 5: We're never going to win a music argument, I've learned.
- 26:03Speaker 5: That's why I hate going down the music road on
- 26:05Speaker 5: this show. Why do you think I'm always arguing with
- 26:07Speaker 5: Nelly and Moser about this because music arguments are so
- 26:10Speaker 5: personal and subjective. Gah, You're never going to win these arguments.
- 26:14Speaker 5: It's a waste of time. Everybody has their own niche,
- 26:17Speaker 5: everybody has their own music, and you can't change their minds.
- 26:21Speaker 6: Why do we do this to ourselves?
- 26:22Speaker 2: I don't know. I have no idea. Texas says cold
- 26:26Speaker 2: Play was good, Coldplay was terrible and that's why they
- 26:28Speaker 2: needed Bruno and Beyonce to build them out. That's my take.
- 26:33Speaker 2: Just quickly here, going back to last night, I want
- 26:36Speaker 2: to go to the Avs. We talked a lot about
- 26:38Speaker 2: the Nuggets to day. The Avs won yesterday. It was
- 26:40Speaker 2: thank god they needed a win to go into this
- 26:42Speaker 2: Olympic break. But I asked Benda the question yesterday when
- 26:46Speaker 2: he was with us.
- 26:48Speaker 6: That.
- 26:50Speaker 2: Are you excited about your players playing in the Olympics,
- 26:55Speaker 2: or are you nervously watching with your like you're between
- 26:59Speaker 2: your fingers making sure nobody gets hurt.
- 27:01Speaker 5: This is what he's saying.
- 27:03Speaker 8: It'll be more excitement and the games of the game.
- 27:06Speaker 8: I think they're all gonna go play hard. The harder
- 27:09Speaker 8: you play and the harder you compete, it's gonna be
- 27:12Speaker 8: physical for sure, but it'll be a clean style game
- 27:15Speaker 8: because you're playing Olympic rules too, So it's I'm just
- 27:19Speaker 8: excited for those guys their opportunity go represent their countries
- 27:23Speaker 8: and go chase gold, you know, So it'll it'll definitely
- 27:27Speaker 8: be more excitement.
- 27:28Speaker 2: He's excited for his guys. Vic he's nervous as hell.
- 27:31Speaker 2: I'd be nervous as hell. You're you're telling me Landskog
- 27:35Speaker 2: takes a check against the boards, you're gonna be like, no,
- 27:38Speaker 2: get up, yeap.
- 27:41Speaker 6: One hundred percent. You should be nervous.
- 27:43Speaker 5: But at the same time, these guys aren't gonna they're
- 27:46Speaker 5: playing for their countries. They're gonna bring it. They're gonna
- 27:48Speaker 5: go all out. There's no skin. This isn't the All
- 27:51Speaker 5: Star game, right, They're not just gonna wheel it out
- 27:54Speaker 5: there and have fun. They're trying to win games. You're
- 27:56Speaker 5: going to have injuries. Somebody's going to get injured. Somebody's
- 28:00Speaker 5: only get hurt coming back for the Olympics. You just
- 28:01Speaker 5: hope it's not one of yours.
- 28:03Speaker 6: But it's going to happen. You realize that, right.
- 28:05Speaker 2: Yeah, Well it happened in the in the formation last year.
- 28:10Speaker 6: Who's gonna happen again? That's a game.
- 28:12Speaker 2: Who was that?
- 28:13Speaker 6: It was Kachuk the Brothers.
- 28:16Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was Matt.
- 28:18Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 28:18Speaker 2: That would suck. It would really suck, and I would.
- 28:21Speaker 2: I am watching with very nervous energy because I don't
- 28:26Speaker 2: need that to happen. Health is the only thing that
- 28:28Speaker 2: I care about. Of Course, I want the US to
- 28:31Speaker 2: win and I want all of our boys to play well.
- 28:34Speaker 2: But there is going to be this sense of like,
- 28:38Speaker 2: fingers toes crossed, please don't get hurt.
- 28:42Speaker 5: I with You's so with you. You're the one who
- 28:45Speaker 5: brought it up the first time in the morning. Think
- 28:47Speaker 5: about it, having this this Olympic break in the middle
- 28:50Speaker 5: of your season. It's just so awkward in my opinion,
- 28:53Speaker 5: it's just so weird. But he just sort of you stop.
- 28:58Speaker 5: You stop for a month you turn your attention to
- 29:01Speaker 5: the same sport but a different team, and then you
- 29:03Speaker 5: reassemble a month. It's just yeah, I don't know, man.
- 29:06Speaker 5: I don't mean there's nothing they can do to avoid it.
- 29:08Speaker 6: It's just weird.
- 29:09Speaker 2: Somebody's gonna say, like, soccer does this all the time. Yeah,
- 29:12Speaker 2: I know, that's that's weird to me too. It's also
- 29:14Speaker 2: very weird that you're playing. But I know these guys
- 29:18Speaker 2: care about winning this VIC. But I think you ask
- 29:20Speaker 2: any of them, would they rather win the gold for
- 29:22Speaker 2: their country or hoist the Stanley Cup. I think they
- 29:25Speaker 2: all choose the Cup.
- 29:26Speaker 6: Do you think so?
- 29:28Speaker 2: I would think you don't. It's a great question, you
- 29:32Speaker 2: think you think Gabe would care more about hoisting that
- 29:36Speaker 2: up for Sweden than he would hoisting the cup for a.
- 29:39Speaker 6: I don't know the answer.
- 29:40Speaker 5: I mean, if you asked Nicola, would he rather win
- 29:42Speaker 5: Olympic gold for Serbia or another NBA championship for the Nuggets,
- 29:46Speaker 5: what do you think the answer would?
- 29:47Speaker 2: Well, the key there's another another.
- 29:51Speaker 5: I think country runs deep, bro country runs deep. So
- 29:55Speaker 5: it's all I'm saying, I don't know the answer. What
- 29:57Speaker 5: about his own on that? What about Carmelo Anthony. He
- 30:00Speaker 5: has what four Olympic Golds and no NBA championships? Do
- 30:03Speaker 5: you think he would trade half those championship?
- 30:06Speaker 2: That's different though, because like if you ask Canadian players,
- 30:09Speaker 2: they've won it so much, they probably are like, yeah,
- 30:11Speaker 2: I'd rather take the kill.
- 30:13Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 30:13Speaker 2: Now, Serbia winning that would have been like a huge upset, right,
- 30:19Speaker 2: which is welcome.
- 30:20Speaker 6: Hell have a hero is welcome for finishing third. Right.
- 30:25Speaker 2: But here's the other thing. I have a theory towards this,
- 30:28Speaker 2: And look, this might be optimistic sort of way of thinking,
- 30:32Speaker 2: but VIC is it crazy to say this that as
- 30:34Speaker 2: bad as the Avs power play has been, I believe
- 30:36Speaker 2: they're dead last in the league. Now I'm gonna double
- 30:39Speaker 2: check that. But they've had a rough stretch. So their
- 30:43Speaker 2: power play percentage right now is dead last by a
- 30:48Speaker 2: whole half percentage. They're fifteen point one thirty second in
- 30:51Speaker 2: the league. Maybe guys like mccarr, McKinnon, Gabe Nature, all
- 31:00Speaker 2: these guys are gonna be part of your power play units.
- 31:03Speaker 2: They go and play for their home countries here they
- 31:06Speaker 2: have some success on the power play playing for these
- 31:08Speaker 2: home countries, and they bring some confidence back. Maybe it'll
- 31:11Speaker 2: help in that category. I have no idea, but it
- 31:14Speaker 2: certainly can't hurt It can't hurt you.
- 31:17Speaker 5: How much is it confidence or is its scheme? What
- 31:21Speaker 5: is it? We're still trying to answer that question.
- 31:23Speaker 2: It's both. But Vick, it's gotta be confidence. It has
- 31:26Speaker 2: to be too, like that's got to be part of it.
- 31:30Speaker 2: I think sometimes when you're doing this, you're trying to
- 31:32Speaker 2: get so cute, like, you know what's funny? Last night
- 31:35Speaker 2: we were just talking about how Cale has just been
- 31:37Speaker 2: missing the net entirely, like he's not giving it a
- 31:39Speaker 2: chance to go in. How'd you score your first goal?
- 31:41Speaker 2: Last night? Cale didn't look for the perfect shot. He
- 31:44Speaker 2: just threw them right into the belly of the goalie
- 31:47Speaker 2: bounced off. Lickenon is there to clean it up? You're
- 31:49Speaker 2: up one to nothing, and I think a lot of
- 31:51Speaker 2: their power play is like they're trying to search for
- 31:53Speaker 2: the perfect opportunity as opposed to just go man, because
- 31:57Speaker 2: I think part of them is like, well, if I
- 31:58Speaker 2: don't score on this shot and they jumping out of
- 32:00Speaker 2: the zone, who knows, we get set up again. Like
- 32:02Speaker 2: I think it's a lot of mental stuff.
- 32:04Speaker 5: Do you buy what EJ told us on this show?
- 32:07Speaker 5: Just a few days ago, because I know a lot
- 32:08Speaker 5: of detractors think the opposite.
- 32:10Speaker 6: But EJ came on the show.
- 32:11Speaker 5: We asked about the power Play and he said, hasn't
- 32:13Speaker 5: been the same since they lost rants Branton.
- 32:16Speaker 2: That's true. It also was dwindling even at the end
- 32:19Speaker 2: of Ranton It's time here.
- 32:21Speaker 3: It was.
- 32:22Speaker 2: It was going downhill even then. But yeah, I would
- 32:24Speaker 2: help to have that there was there was nothing better
- 32:28Speaker 2: than McKinnon fires it across the ice and it's wide
- 32:32Speaker 2: open for me going a one time er. And he
- 32:34Speaker 2: finished like it happens all the time.
- 32:35Speaker 5: And that's that having played together for a long time,
- 32:39Speaker 5: having that blind chemistry, right, that's being a left hand exactly.
- 32:44Speaker 6: There's you can't recreate that, so you play it to
- 32:49Speaker 6: the aves. On the power play.
- 32:52Speaker 5: You could talk the same thing about the nugget nuggets
- 32:54Speaker 5: and clutch play. When you have different people playing because
- 32:57Speaker 5: you're not used to having the same assemblage of players,
- 32:59Speaker 5: you lose some of that. You lose that right, the chemistry.
- 33:04Speaker 5: You gotta regain it. You gotta play together long enough.
- 33:07Speaker 8: Well.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Less reminder, your final keyword for our show is Elvis,

- 34:20Speaker 6: We all are. That's what we do.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Yeah, but mine, but it's different. I have a set
- 34:24Speaker 2: thing every day that I do. If you told me
- 34:27Speaker 2: I had to be on my phone hours of the
- 34:29Speaker 2: day making videos and posting things, I would choose another profession.
- 34:33Speaker 2: I couldn't do it.
- 34:34Speaker 5: All right, I'll give you two examples. I'm looking to
- 34:36Speaker 5: my left and there's an outfit called Youth Inc. And
- 34:40Speaker 5: they're doing interview after interview with people. What the hell
- 34:44Speaker 5: is youth Inc. I'm looking at my right Galvanize group
- 34:49Speaker 5: of people that are doing interviews for Galvanize.
- 34:52Speaker 6: What is that?
- 34:54Speaker 2: You think is a podcast with Greg Olsen?

- 35:10Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I've heard of that. Okay, all right?
- 35:12Speaker 2: Hand Galvanized ink is that what we're talking about?
- 35:15Speaker 6: Yeah? That was the yellow one Galvanized.
- 35:18Speaker 2: I don't think that that is We're all here that
- 35:21Speaker 2: you thought, at least that's not the place I'm looking at. Okay,
- 35:27Speaker 2: there's AI adaption, AI adoption to modern engineering practices. I
- 35:32Speaker 2: don't think that's the place.
- 35:33Speaker 6: Okay.
- 35:34Speaker 5: There's also a podcast about thirty yards from me called
- 35:37Speaker 5: It's Got a Huge Billboards Satan's Finest What Okay, I.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Literally started a type that. I was like, no, I'm
- 35:45Speaker 2: not even putting that in my Google search. Watch freaks.
- 35:55Speaker 5: Anyway, So you were asking, remember that guy that walked
- 35:58Speaker 5: by earlier? We were like, who is this guy? The
- 36:00Speaker 5: huge ensemble of people behind him. He's a digital dude.
- 36:04Speaker 5: Gary Veeve, you heard of him?
- 36:06Speaker 2: He like, I've heard, but I've heard his name.
- 36:09Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, he was here. What does he do?
- 36:13Speaker 9: Uh?
- 36:14Speaker 5: My brother always sends me stuff from him. He's talking
- 36:17Speaker 5: about He like a Tony Robbins guy.
- 36:19Speaker 6: Yeah, he's one of those dudes. And yeah you know, yeah,
- 36:22Speaker 6: one of those guys. He's always talking, Yeah, talking, I don't.
- 36:28Speaker 2: Yeah, those people don't know. No, Gary v Out, I'm out.
- 36:36Speaker 2: He's one of those. I'll tell you what he is.
- 36:38Speaker 2: It's the type people drive me nuts. It's what Tom
- 36:40Speaker 2: Brady is morphing into.
- 36:41Speaker 5: It's always motivated, always, everybody's always motivated. Everybody's happy, positive,
- 36:45Speaker 5: motivated let's.
- 36:46Speaker 6: Tackle the world.
- 36:47Speaker 2: He's just he's one of these guys. You got a problem,
- 36:51Speaker 2: You're in luck. I have all the answers to life.
- 36:53Speaker 2: He's one of those guys. I'm just like, oh God,
- 36:55Speaker 2: do everything the way that I did it and you'll
- 36:58Speaker 2: get You could be like me. It's like, no, does
- 37:00Speaker 2: it quite work that way.
- 37:01Speaker 7: But you gotta start with a question and go are
- 37:03Speaker 7: you still waking up after five am? Do you like
- 37:07Speaker 7: wasting your life?
- 37:09Speaker 2: It's like it's like when I hear David Goggins, and
- 37:12Speaker 2: David Goggins is like, I ran one hundred and fifty
- 37:14Speaker 2: straight miles without stopping. I was peeing blood by the
- 37:16Speaker 2: end of it. I was like, you think I'm gonna
- 37:18Speaker 2: do that? You can think I possess whatever gene that is.
- 37:23Speaker 2: You're different than me, Dude, I don't have that. I
- 37:27Speaker 2: can't get you to run a mile you're doing because
- 37:31Speaker 2: you're lazy. It's like, no, I physically can't. So now, look,
- 37:38Speaker 2: all respect in the world to David Goggins, but he
- 37:40Speaker 2: speaks as if everybody could be him, and I'm like,
- 37:43Speaker 2: some people are just built differently. Okay. It's like if
- 37:47Speaker 2: Jokic said, if you just do all these things. You
- 37:49Speaker 2: could be me yokic. I'm not seven feet tall. There's
- 37:52Speaker 2: a big impediment there.
- 37:55Speaker 5: Hey, I'm gonna sit down with Greg cosell A name
- 37:59Speaker 5: sounds family. We're gonna do it after the show, will
- 38:01Speaker 5: tape it. But I want to get his thoughts on bow.
- 38:04Speaker 5: Nicks really go down the line on bow because he's
- 38:06Speaker 5: sort of a quarterback expert, works for NFL films, longtime producer.
- 38:10Speaker 5: He's the nephew of Howard Kosel. So he said he's
- 38:13Speaker 5: gonna pop back around here. What do you want me
- 38:15Speaker 5: to ask him about bo or anything else?
- 38:19Speaker 2: I don't know if it's about Bo. I know he's
- 38:21Speaker 2: like a huge NFL.
- 38:22Speaker 6: You got me ask him something about bad Bunny.
- 38:24Speaker 8: No.
- 38:25Speaker 2: No, what I was gonna say was because they do
- 38:27Speaker 2: the NFL films thing. I want to know if, like
- 38:29Speaker 2: does do they have to change their practice with so
- 38:32Speaker 2: many players doing their own stuff now, the NFL films
- 38:35Speaker 2: used to be the only access you had to players
- 38:37Speaker 2: in getting micd up and stuff like that. It's one
- 38:39Speaker 2: of the coolest things ever. But I don't know. I
- 38:42Speaker 2: mean Bo Nicks, I bet you this is gonna be
- 38:46Speaker 2: his answer. They need to get more talent around him.
- 38:49Speaker 2: Hasn't everybody had that same answer.
- 38:51Speaker 5: For pretty much? Yeah, pretty much. But Ryan Leif mentioned
- 38:55Speaker 5: how he missed it early in our interview with Ryan Leaf.
- 38:58Speaker 5: He called bow Nicks air down monster, and it's it's
- 39:02Speaker 5: what differentiates him from a lot of quarterbacks, young quarterbacks
- 39:05Speaker 5: in this league.
- 39:05Speaker 6: Oh, there's Ryan right there, and.
- 39:08Speaker 5: The third down monster is pretty apropos because he makes
- 39:13Speaker 5: big plays on the quarterback's biggest play that is a
- 39:16Speaker 5: quarterbacks play right third down.
- 39:19Speaker 6: That's why your quarterback makes his money.
- 39:21Speaker 2: So, uh, I have a question on that. By the way,
- 39:27Speaker 2: So Denver was eleventh in the league on third down.
- 39:31Speaker 2: They had a forty one rate, so just outside the
- 39:35Speaker 2: top ten. I think at times they were good on
- 39:39Speaker 2: third But if I could narrow this down, and I
- 39:43Speaker 2: don't know any way you can do this, I bet
- 39:46Speaker 2: you his third down conversion rate in the fourth quarter
- 39:49Speaker 2: when trailing was unbelievable.
- 39:50Speaker 5: Off the charts. I bet you his big play rate
- 39:54Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter was off the charts.
- 39:56Speaker 2: Yeah, but what about third down conversion rate in the
- 39:58Speaker 2: second quarter.
- 40:00Speaker 6: That's different, different animal. Then Yeah, that's what I.
- 40:03Speaker 2: Want, Like, he's a third down monster. When it really
- 40:06Speaker 2: really matters. But what about when the game's just kind
- 40:09Speaker 2: of in the middle of it and you're trying to
- 40:11Speaker 2: build a lead or whatever. I don't know what that
- 40:13Speaker 2: would be. But again we said this earlier, Vic, it's
- 40:17Speaker 2: better to have the lulls at the beginning of games
- 40:22Speaker 2: with brilliance at the end than the opposite.
- 40:24Speaker 6: It's better.
- 40:25Speaker 2: It's better that way because it's going to give you
- 40:28Speaker 2: a chance to win every single week, as opposed to
- 40:30Speaker 2: the guy you don't trust at the end of the
- 40:31Speaker 2: game that sucks.
- 40:33Speaker 6: Is what do you do with it?
- 40:34Speaker 5: I can't help but think about one thing as I'm
- 40:37Speaker 5: surrounded by everybody that follows and covers the NFL. How
- 40:41Speaker 5: close the Broncos came to being here this week?
- 40:44Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 40:44Speaker 5: And how we take that for granted sometimes, like the
- 40:47Speaker 5: assumption is they'll be right in position to do it
- 40:49Speaker 5: again next year. Do you understand how many things have
- 40:52Speaker 5: to fall your way to be in that position? And
- 40:57Speaker 5: the worst possible timing occurred in that division playoff game,
- 41:00Speaker 5: losing your starting quarterback earlier, losing your starting running back.
- 41:06Speaker 5: You got a hope upon hope that health goes your
- 41:09Speaker 5: way for sure, And I'm getting maybe it's maybe I'm
- 41:13Speaker 5: just getting old. I'm getting more and more fatalistic about
- 41:16Speaker 5: this stuff. When I'm looking at the Avs season and
- 41:19Speaker 5: the Nuggets season, it's just pure dumb luck.
- 41:22Speaker 6: Sometimes you gotta be healthy.
- 41:24Speaker 5: Sure, you know the Nuggets when they won the championship,
- 41:30Speaker 5: they went sixteen and four in that playoff run, sixteen
- 41:33Speaker 5: to four, which is hard, right, that's dominant? Yeah? Do
- 41:36Speaker 5: you know they trotted out the exact same starting lineup
- 41:39Speaker 5: for all twenty of those games? They had zero injuries,
- 41:44Speaker 5: zero for twenty straight games, twenty straight hardcore physical so
- 41:50Speaker 5: the bone games. They can't get through two games right
- 41:54Speaker 5: now without an injury, let alone twenty.
- 41:56Speaker 2: So I think I have this correct. I don't have
- 41:59Speaker 2: it in front of me. I saw it a couple
- 42:00Speaker 2: of days ago. But I believe in the last two years,
- 42:07Speaker 2: how many if you swept every team in the playoffs, Vic,
- 42:10Speaker 2: how many games would it take to win a championship?
- 42:12Speaker 6: Sixteen?
- 42:13Speaker 2: Did you know that Aaron Gordon the last two years
- 42:15Speaker 2: has not played sixteen consecutive games.
- 42:17Speaker 6: I know I saw that stat. Yeah, I saw that.
- 42:20Speaker 6: That scares me. Yeah, scares the living hell out of me.
- 42:22Speaker 6: And I can't.
- 42:27Speaker 5: The Denver Nuggets started the season eight and two with
- 42:30Speaker 5: their starting lineup. Who is the Nuggets? Could you even
- 42:33Speaker 5: remember that?
- 42:34Speaker 6: Far back? Who's the Nuggets starting five?
- 42:37Speaker 2: Murray Brown, Johnson, Gordon Jokic.
- 42:41Speaker 6: Do you understand how long it's been since we've seen
- 42:43Speaker 6: the Nuggets starting five?
- 42:44Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 42:46Speaker 6: You know how far back you have to go to
- 42:47Speaker 6: see that starting five.
- 42:48Speaker 2: It's it's so far back that I don't even know
- 42:52Speaker 2: what is the starting five health and.
- 42:54Speaker 6: It's melded, it's different.
- 42:56Speaker 5: That's starting five that you just mentioned started the season
- 42:58Speaker 5: eight and two and the two they had one was
- 43:01Speaker 5: in overtime to Golden State. They had that game one
- 43:04Speaker 5: and the other one was that ridiculous finish in Portland.
- 43:06Speaker 5: They could have been ten and zero easily. Yeah, that's
- 43:08Speaker 5: starting five. That's the team. That's the team. I we're
- 43:13Speaker 5: so far removed from that team right now because it's changed.
- 43:16Speaker 5: It's it's head right. Every week, it's a different team.
- 43:21Speaker 5: Imagine what it's like playing.
- 43:23Speaker 2: Well now if you guys missed it. Peyton Watson leaves
- 43:26Speaker 2: clutching his hamstring last night, he's getting an MRI. Looks
- 43:29Speaker 2: like he's going to be out a large chunk of
- 43:32Speaker 2: time as well. So somebody that you assumed might be
- 43:34Speaker 2: a starter now within that starting five is also going
- 43:37Speaker 2: to be out for an extended stretch. I'm sure we'll
- 43:39Speaker 2: get the reevaluated in four to six weeks, thing as
- 43:43Speaker 2: we have with everybody else on this damn roster. But
- 43:46Speaker 2: Super Bowl sixty is on Altitude Sports Radio ninety two
- 43:48Speaker 2: five on Sunday, Kevin Harlan, Kurt Warner on Westwood One
- 43:52Speaker 2: covered starts at two o'clock. So tune in for that

- 44:35Speaker 2: took away Armando Galrugazer the game.
- 44:37Speaker 6: Yeah he was, and he was very humbled after them.
- 44:39Speaker 2: Remember that James Joyce was born in eighteen eighty two.
- 44:44Speaker 2: He died in nineteen forty one, and he was an
- 44:48Speaker 2: Irish novelist, literary critic.
- 44:51Speaker 5: Why would I ask somebody who's never read a book
- 44:53Speaker 5: if he knows who James Joyce is.
- 44:55Speaker 2: I read books every night, the baby Jamal Klee.

- 45:08Speaker 2: The Coddling of the American Mind is what the book
- 45:11Speaker 2: was called. Okay, yeah, it is a lot about like, hey,
- 45:14Speaker 2: the peanut allergy, like it was a lot of references
- 45:17Speaker 2: to the things that were going on right now. I've
- 45:20Speaker 2: read a book recently, a uh one. So yeah, don't
- 45:28Speaker 2: get on me too much.

- 46:28Speaker 2: Oh A good point, considering how things ended with another
- 46:34Speaker 2: doctor that was there.
- 46:36Speaker 5: I wouldn't trust him, right, I wouldn't trust him in
- 46:38Speaker 5: that situation.
