• 0:24
  Speaker 2: joins us now brought to you by mister Ruter Plumbing,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: proudly rooting for Colorado's hockey team. Good morning, coach, How
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: are we doing to shake it off the cobwebs?
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah a little bit. Yeah, he was a late night
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: coming back from Seattle last night, but yeah, we got
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: a day off today to recuperate and then practice day tomorrows.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: So yeah, just knocking the dust off here a little
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: bit this morning with some coffee.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Five to three over Seattle last night. Eight times you
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: have trailed entering the third period this season, but the
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: first time you've rallied back to win. That had to
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: feel good to win a different type of way amidst
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: this start where more or less you've been running through everybody.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it wasn't a great start to the game for us,
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: and we managed to play with the lead for a while,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: and then yeah, they kind of got a couple of
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: quick ones off the rush in the second period and
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: we found ourselves behind. But I think it just kind
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: of shows you the resilience of the group that we
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: have and the belief that we have that we can
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: come back in those games. And yeah, we had our
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: top guys kind of dialed it up last night. We
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: got a big power play goal, Nate follows it up
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: with another one, and I you know, it was a
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: good third period and a hard work and win against
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: a team that played really desperate and played really fast
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: last night against US.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: Coach, you see what's happening right Every team now is
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: bringing their a game against your team. You are that
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: team everyone's chasing, Everyone wants to be measured against the Avs,
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: and it's going to require you to dig on a night,
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: lie basis. And you know what, that's a That's a
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: great thing to have as a coach. Here's here's your motivation.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Look at them, they want to beat you. It doesn't
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: get much better than that.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I totally agree. We've been talking about it
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: here for a while. Like, especially when you kind of
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: get on those streaks, right, like you get like you're
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: playing well pretty much the whole season now, but you're
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: you get on a couple of these streaks and you
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: come into buildings hot and and A they know that
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: they're gonna have to play well against us to win,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: and and B if they, you know, have an off night,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: it could get ugly. So you know they they are
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: bringing it, And for me, that's a great that's a
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: great test for our team, you know, like it puts
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: a challenge in front of them right away. We know
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: that we have to be at our best in order
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: to beat them, and it kind of keeps you dialed
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: in and focused on what you're trying to accomplish. And
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: it's like a new test every night, and it's hard
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: to take a night off or take it easy on
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: any of these nights. It's the pride portion of your
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: team kind of kicks in, you know, Like after the
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: first period yesterday, like I thought we were playing hard
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: and doing the right things, but when they got to
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: puck into our zone last night, both off the rush
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: and the ozone play, they were zipping it around and
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: there was an intensity to their game that we didn't
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: match early on and Blackwood was outstanding, And yeah, we
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: got a goal to take the lead, but we needed
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: to ramp up our game as that game went on,
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: and we did that, we're able to come back and
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: get the victory. So good on our guys, But I
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: get the feeling like that's going to be the norm
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: sort of going through this middle portion of this season.
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: Coach, correct me if I'm wrong. Well, let's say years
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: gone by, you guys have a lot of talent. You
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: feel like at times, if you don't have it that night,
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: we'll turn the switch. It will be okay. And then
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: you know, a lot of times you were okay. But
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: this year, let's say you don't having or another team
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: like Vic was talking about Seattle last night. They're coming out,
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: they're playing hard, they're playing their butts off, they're doing
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: everything they can, and you guys aren't playing bad. But
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: then this professionalism kicks in. It's a different sort of switch.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: I mean, maybe it is a switch, but it's a
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: different kind of switch. It's the determination switch. It's not
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: the hey, let's try to out talent them. It's the
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: let's go work hard, employ our game. And then you
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: guys grind, you know, the opposition into submission, and it's
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: impressive to see. So to me, I look at it.
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: I don't know how many different kind of switches they
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: sell at the home depot, but you found the professional, Hey,
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: we have pride type of switch, not just oh we
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: have talent, we can score goals.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I told I couldn't have explained it better myself.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Always I think like it's not like, yeah, we're gonna
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: let's go and try to out you know, scale our
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: way to victory here, you know, and at least to
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: this point in the season, you know it used there
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: were times in years past where you go try to
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: outscal them, or you would sort of fragment as a group,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: and it all just became, you know, we're chasing this,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: so let's just you know, go random individual efforts all
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: over the rink and not play into our identity and
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: the structure of our game. That's what I really liked
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: about last night is like the points we made after
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: the first period to say we got to find a gear,
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Like as well as we think we're skating, they're the
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: quicker team right now. And number two, we got to
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: get another level of intensity and physicality because they're like
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: taking it to us. They're winning all the races, they're
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: winning all the fifty to fifty pucks and then they're
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: creating scoring chances out of it. The details weren't bad,
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: The structure wasn't bad. Like we were still sort of
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: dialed in on that portion of it. But bottom line
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: is we needed to like work harder and get more
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: physical and more tense if we wanted to win that
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: hockey game. And then you can sort of see the
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: physicality come out. You could see it from guys like
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Nate Landy Manson Burns, and it was contagious and you know,
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: everyone dug in. It wasn't a one line effort, you
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: know Nate and the power play they had like the production,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: but everyone was like chipping in to like start winning
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: more zone time and win the possession game and the
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: three zones and sort of wearing him down a little bit.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: And I thought it was a real professional sort of
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: approach to to coming from behind last night, and I
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: think that's why we won.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Jared real quick, but just have a quick follow up.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: I don't think anything eximpliz exemplifies that more than this.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Though.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: It's four three game and you guys send the puck
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: down the ice and here comes your captain, and I
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: don't know how long he was into that shift, but
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: he's outracing done to the dot to wave off the ice.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, coach, but Ryker and I are up there
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: and here comes ninety two and he is a flying
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: He's like an absolute raging ball down the ice to
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: get to that dot. And I'm like, oh my god.
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: If I'm a guy on your team, and I know
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: they're all bought in, but if you see your captain
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: who missed three years, right, he's back now and he's
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: doing that kind of thing and he's just i mean
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: every ounce of energy he's got into that one play
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: just to wave off the icing. I'm like, that's a
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: hell of a way to show how to get it done.
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: I mean you must have been thrilled.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, exactly. Like and guys, notice that you
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: could hear him on the bench. There was another instance
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: late in the game. It pops out into the new
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: tri zone and Berniers goes to pick it up and
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: he's a shifty guy and he's quick and he and
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: he sort of tries this, you know, sidestep or elude Mac,
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: and Mac laser into him and yeah, and like it
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: just like ended the player right there, and everyone was
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: like whoa, you know, like it was guys taking it
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: to a new level in order to secure the victory.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: And yeah, again, like it's supposed to be similar mentality,
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: and it is a similar mentality that they all did
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: it together and they did it within the structure of
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: our game and just added the intensity and physicality instead
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: of going rogue, you know. And so that was I
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: really like the way we have a coach that game
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: and handled that game, especially in the second half.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Coach Jared Bednar joining us now on the ramos Law
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: hotline car accident you need ramos Law medical doctor and
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: attorney Ramoslaw dot com. Coach, I want to ask you
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: about Josh Manson. Obviously, the physicality he brought last night
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: with that scrum, a little scrap there in the third period,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: he said he felt like the boys needed it. Kind
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: of got everybody going after that. But the role that
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: he has played for you, right, you trade for him
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: at the deadline the year that you win the Cup.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: He's incredibly productive, but then Gabe goes down and you
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: don't have him. So for the last couple of years,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: for all intents and purposes, he's been the guy from
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: a physicality standpoint who's had to shoulder more of that
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: load and that responsibility. What does he mean to your
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: group now, and especially with Landy coming back, What does
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Josh Manson mean to that locker room?
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: I mean a lot, a lot. I mean he's one
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: of the elder States and back there on the blue line.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: He's relied on in so many different situations, in so
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: many different ways, and just one of the ways is
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: the physicality that he brings on a nightly basis like
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: he is. Guys like Josh are hard to find nowadays
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: in the game. Guys that can move the puck efficiently,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: that can break you out of his own defend real
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: well and penalty kill and block shots and do all that,
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: but still bring that edge and nastiness, especially net fronts,
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: and just like close and plays out D zone, He's
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: gonna run into you first time and last time all
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: night long. And then he does things with the puck
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: that most guys that bring that style can't be, like
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: the leaking in first goal. He gets a pass from Kale,
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: side steps a guy in the Nutroos owned bus all
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: the way up the middle of the ice and kicks
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: it out to Marty. Marty makes a nifty little play.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Next thing, you know, it's it's shot to the net
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: and Leckingon deflects it and gets us their goal. And
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: and like most guys that play a style like Josh,
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: then they lock in the puck moving side of it.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: And I mean, he's been super efficient with that, and
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: he's worked on it extremely hard in his game. And
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: he's the guys with his size and strength and ability
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: and physicality, they're just not out there and they're they're
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: the guys that everybody wants. And I mean he's done
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: a great job for us and great lead, a great
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: locker room guy with a wealth of experience. He's highly
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: respected within our room.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: I mean, how was sleep did you get last night?
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Jared? Uh? Probably go four four?
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: Do you nap well? Do you have a chance to
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: lay down a little, because I know mos your naps
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: every day.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: Damn Rod, I'm on a nap or you got your mind?
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: Of course I might.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: I might. It just depends on how I feel in
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: the mid afternoon, late afternoon. But I'm up for now. Yeah.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: I'm just curious how you abide by the schedule because
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: it can get it can get crazy. And if you
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: don't sleep and you sound like you like sleep, that's
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: gotta affect the way you can think. What what do
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: you do all day on a day like this with
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: no I mean you look at tape, what's on your
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: what's on the agenda? For Jared Bednar, I'll.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Do a little bit of work today or you know,
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: and then like tomorrow morning, I'll be in early, so
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: I'll make sure I get good sleep tonight and then
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: go in early tomorrow before all the guys and get
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: a lot of work done and get like, get the
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: review done and we'll sit and go through it. We've
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: got to practice day, you know, so I can work
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: on our opponent tomorrow after practice and everything. So today
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: it's probably I'm probably gonna get outside and take a
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: dog for a long height someplace, and then spend some
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: time with the family. And I don't know what the
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: family's got planned for this evening, but definitely be an
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: early night, getting some sleep, getting ready for tomorrow.
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, if you go outside, you better bring a parachute
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: because the wind's supposed to whip in ninety miles an
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: hour in some parts of town.
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: Gonna say it's gonna be it's gonna be crazy, and
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: your part coach, be careful real quick though. Some things
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: need to be just they're just left unsaid. We've already
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: discussed it on this program. And you're a very calm guy.
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: You're not an angry guy that sort of thing. But
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: you could take any one of us quite easily, right And.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: Maybe I'm tired now. I think I could take advantage
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: of that.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: Oh you could take it. Okay, you might. You might
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: get a couple of knee bites. Okay. That being said,
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: back in you're playing days, we know you were tough
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: on the back end. If you had to throw down
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: a little bit, you could do that from your blue
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: line spot. Did you ever take one on the beak
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: like Manson delivered last night? Because there's something, there's something
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: about a guy like that where if you're going to
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: go against Josh Manson, I know that that Matt was
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: just talking about him, but you better be damn committed
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: because he's he's not screwing around there, you know what
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: I mean. He's he's gonna set a tone in your face.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: And that's exactly what happened. And I rewatched that and
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: then March. You know, he dives back into the pile
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: to get away, and it's hard to blame him, but
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: you ever take one right in.
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: The beak like that, Yeah, well, yes, answers, Yes, you've
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: seen my nose.
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: That's true.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: I got my I got my nose sticked once and
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: straightened out, and I was like, okay, I'll be good.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: And then you know, a couple of years later, it
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: happened again, and then I was like, all right, Like,
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: what's the point here, I'm playing another eight years is
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: worse than breaking your nose. I just left it and
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: never got it fixed. I still probably have to have
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: that deviated septum surgery. But but I'll say this about Manz.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: That's the thing, like he's playing for keeps, right. You
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: got guys out there playing hockey and you know, playing physical,
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: and then you got guys that are that you just
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: don't want to mess with. And mans is A is
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: a big tough kid. You know, you know who raised
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: him right like day it was one of the toughest guys.
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: And then out west it was like I was growing
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: up here in the legends of day even watching him
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: play and then watching him go to the NHL, and
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: he knows that and he like he can be a
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: nasty guy, but then he's playing for keeps. But then
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: angry Manson like that is a whole different story, right,
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Like he gives Marchman a pop and he comes back
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: at him twice as hard, and then Mansk goes at
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: him like five times as hard as Marchman came back
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: at him. Like it's just like escalated to a whole
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: new level of angry immediately. And yeah, I think that's
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: why he gets a little room and partly why he's
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: so effective at what he does.
• 15:24
  Speaker 6: Coach.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Last one from us this morning inside the Division Monster
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: trade went down. Quinn Hughes to Minnesota. What was your
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: reaction to that? And I mean, just just more logs
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: on the fire of the Central Division here.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my first reaction was wow, you know, and it's
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: like you're you're kind of hoping, like when you're watching
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: it unfold in Vancouver, that he doesn't end up against
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: someone you're playing all the time, or someone you get
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: a beat. I mean, he's impact player, one of the
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: best in the game at what he does. And it's
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: like you got a team that's that's like a really
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: really strong team, and you know, I looked at the
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: standings the other day winning percent who was a little
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: off because teams have played different amounts of games, But
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: you had, you know, us Dallas, I think it was
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: Caroline at the time, and then Mini one, two and
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: four in the league, right, And that's the type of
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: team they are. They are a very good team this year.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: And now they add Quinn Hughes and that's like their
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: elite team and he's going to help them immensely. They
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: got immediately better. And I thought Vancouver did a really
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: nice job right, Like Zeve Buiam is going to be
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: a star. Lots of our fans would know him from
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: du And then they got Rossy. They got some good
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: young pieces and draft picks to sort of build back
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: what they had in losing Hughes, and they're at a
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: different point and their development as a team, and I
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: think they got a really good package out of that.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: And Minnesota paid a really good package to get the
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: best player in the trade that's going to help make
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: them better immediately.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: Well, you guys get to see him Sunday, so you'll
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: get a look sooner enough. We appreciate your time this morning.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Thanks so much. We appreciate it. Go get some rest
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: hopefully a little later today.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: All right, thank you guys, appreciate it.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: That is Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar, who joins us
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: always on Wednesday.
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: Great stuff from bed Zi.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: There.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: We'll get back to the Avs here coming up in
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: a little bit. But on the other side, tons of
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: news pouring out of the sports world and we'll chop
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: it all up with you next.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: Sell us, tell us I have an idea. Most you
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: remember when we've done this twice now where we've online
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: live canceled up Kyle Keiths tea times, rightfully so because
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: he's been a bad friend.
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: He's been a really bad friend in that regard.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we've canceled his tea times because he'll ask one
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: of us to play and then later call and say, no,
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: you're out. We got somebody else.
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: So we'll cancel. Well, here's the thing. You can't ask
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: somebody to play golf yeah and then say see, I
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: need a response in thirty eight seconds. You know. Sometimes
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: you don't see your phone and then like forty five
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: minutes later you say, oh, yeah, I can play, and
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: then he says, what's already filled.
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: Sorry, So here's what we'll do today. And we can
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: do this off air. Let's call three or four golf
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: courses that are knee deep in this wind tunnel that's
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: supposed to hit us, and we're supposed to get wins
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: in the metro area upwards of eighty ninety one hundred
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: miles an hour in some spots. So I'm sure the
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: golf courses are jam packed today. Let's go ahead and
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: make a few tea times for him and some of
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: these courses. What's that course on the way to Boulder.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: I know like some of those courses in that wind
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: tunnel are going to be nuts. What's the one on
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: the right as you're driving into Boulder that's right outside
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: of Lewisville that.
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: We're talking about, col Creek?
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: Coal Creek? Yeah, I'm sure Coal Creek today is going
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: to catch wind that will be borderline tornadic.
• 19:10
  Speaker 6: Or how about omni omni.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god, just anywhere without any of the
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: any of the trees. By the way, you I was
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: just gonna say, Mosia, Lombardy and King with Matt Smith
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Brett still out on paternity leave.
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: Yes, mos do you golf at all?
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a huge golfer. I'm enormous I love the game.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: Well, let's give Kyle. Let's give him three or four
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: te times around noon today and just see what people say.
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: You know, I'm trying to figure on a day like this,
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: if you're down wind.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Every par four, you can't play when it's as bad.
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: And I had one time out at one time out
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: of the pinery, I had a par three that was
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: like one hundred and fifty yards. It's straight downhill, right,
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: It's just that over the pond, right straight downhill, and
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: it was so windy into my face. I hit a
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: hybrid as hard as I could and went straight up
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: like beautiful, and then it came and dropped right in
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: the middle of the pond him like that. I don't
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: know what the knots are in that win man, but
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: I couldn't have striped it any better. It's just insane.
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: I just got a text from Kyle that says, don't
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: oh no, doom, Kyle, don't do so just give me
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: a list as long as you're listening to three or
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: four courses that you're going to go play today allegedly
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: because you're gonna get on that list today.
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: Are you asking this from Kiefer or from Texter?
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: I just like, where should we have him play that
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: he'll miss his tea time.
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: He wouldn't care. I mean, the canceling of the tea
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: time is way better than making one for another if.
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: You really do try to play golf of these conditions today,
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: you are man. You are a better person than I am.
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: You are a lifer. You are I don't even know.
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: What to say. You're a mutant, is what you are.
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: You're an absolute mutant. Or if you ride your bike
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: in this wind, if you see anybody else are riding
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: their bike, Oh no, my bike in the wind. I
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: hate it deep exactly.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: Just so you know, there are expected to be over
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: fifty thousand different homes that will have their power turn
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: off today. Xcel is gonna turn it off, and it's
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: on their outage map, so you might want to take
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: a look. I got lucky according to this outage map.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: I'm right outside it, like a block away from me
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: they're turning. I usually lose my power where I live,
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: but like a block away from me, everyone's losing their
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: power on the west side of town.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: So that generator you bought yesterday, it's just gonna be
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: sitting there.
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: In that generator. Bro let's just go to my mom's house.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: That's my generator.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: By the way, you brought up Keefer. Gotta play this
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: moment from the pregame last night. This is ah I
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: would just say late regular season game delirium, But boys,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: I wanted to ask you, have you ever laughed at
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: your own horrendous joke like Riker did here?
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: The turbulence in Keefer's shorts is actually called flatulence.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: Big difference.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: Okay, that's wonderful. Hey, all right, let's start off on
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: the hockey. Quinn Hughes goes to.
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: Minnesota, shocks the world. He gets a goal the other night.
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: How much?
• 22:24
  Speaker 6: How much?
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: Riker? How much does he change? He can't answer.
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: I mean, these guys doing nitrous before they get.
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: Ahold, Well, I gotta, I gotta let you behind the
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: curtain a little bit. Riker told me we were. It
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: was before the pregame even started away before and uh,
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: we're doing gonna talk turbulence of this kind of thing.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: And uh, he goes, I got a joke, I'm gonna
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: talk about Keifer's flatulence. I go, it's gonna draw, it's
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: it's not gonna hit. I go, don't do it. He goes,
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: I'm doing it. So then he's about ready to go on.
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: I'm like, don't know what it's not. It's not gonna
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: land where you think it's gonna let It's like, it's
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: gonna be awesome. And once it gets in his head
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: that he's doing it, he's gonna do it and he's
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: gonna laugh his butt off. And the problem is it's
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: not that funny at all, but the fact that he's
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: losing it, the fact that he's losing it and crying,
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: it makes you want to lose it and cry just
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: because you know that laughing is infectious, not because the
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: joke landed.
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: At all at all. You gotta go watch it all.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: You gotta go watch it on Altitude DVS social media channel.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: They they're they're just trying to get anything out of Riker.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: He's literally literally crying just because he said the word flatulence.
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: It was laugh out loud, funny laugh out.
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: He's like, he's like, I know I'll be able to
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: get Johnny that's about it. But that's okay. I'm like,
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: all right, all right, Johnny.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Was just laughing because he got himself so hard.
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: That was why john was.
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: Exactly But you know, what we uh, our crew has
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: a lot of fun. You're supposed to get sports Biz
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: Biz gave us a shout on the most recent Spit
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: and Chicklecks podcast. We try to make it fun and
• 23:58
  Speaker 5: he obviously with T and T crew, he tries to
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: make it fun. And you know, we just have a
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: good time. We all we all as you guys know,
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: we're all friends. We all hang out on and off
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: the ice and so on. So it's it's cool. It's
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: it's just it's a really good crew.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it definitely is. I mean, always have a great
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: time watching the broadcast. Yeah, you have fun. Yeah, we
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: know you have fun. Well, the wagon rolls on undoubtedly.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: By the way, last AVS note here here's Mackenzie Blackwood
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: after the game and Vic and I were talking about
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: this earlier. Most you know those road locker rooms, I
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: mean they're like an eight foot by eight foot room.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: If you have one conversation in the corner, everybody could
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: hear you. This was Mackenzie Blackwood talking about playing behind
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Nathan McKinnon and cal mccarr and Nate was kind of
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: he goes, oh, thanks, Bud, It's got me.
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: Fun playing behind guys like mccarr mcanaday, what do you
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: see it? And I'm completely nasty.
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: Next question, No one, those guys are and uh uh
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: love to love to you know, watch those guys on
• 25:04
  Speaker 7: a night.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: The basis they're having fun. That's what matters the most,
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: So the broadcast crew, the hockey team. Everything's fun when
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: you're winning, right boys, No question about it.
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know what's cool is is McKinnon and
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: all the guys are like, look, Mackenzie Blackwood's playing awesome.
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: We always us ten one in one since he came
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: back from injury. Ten one and one, Wedge would think,
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: still leads to the league and wins. You're like, it
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: doesn't matter whether it's Wedge or whether it's McKenzie, whoever's
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: between the pipes. The guys in front are like, man,
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: we just have to pull our heads out of our tail.
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: These guys are gonna stop pucks for us. We just
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: need to to give them a couple of runs, is
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: what McKinnon said. Give them a couple of runs, because
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: you know you're gonna get a starting performance. You know
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: you're starting pitchers probably gonna have a one nine to
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: seven e r A. We just need to give them
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: a couple of runs and we're gonna We're gonna win
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: a lot of games. And that's really cool. I mean
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: that the trust factor going through that room, Vic, that
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: this stuff, if you just can't buy it, has to
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: happen organically, and it's badass.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: Well, why do you think I'm in such a hurry
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: to get to April? I just I just am for
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: this reason. This is the pinnacle right now? Can you
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: can you maintain this for four more months? Do you
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: ever ask yourself that question?
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah? I do, Vic, But I'm saying, why can't you?
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: I don't know what. Boys? Oh, boys, knock on your wood. Okay,
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: that's if you knock on your wood. I mean, they
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: go to the rank believing they can win. They're number
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: one in virtually every team goaltending stat maybe all of them.
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: They're number one in this number one in that leading
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: scoring player in the league, leading scoring defenseman of the league.
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: By the way, mcpickles had a four point night last night.
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: And I don't know if you're watching, but Connor McDavid's
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: been really coming on and he passed McKinnon last night.
• 26:54
  Speaker 5: He had fifty six points. McKinnon at fifty five and
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: Nate had an assist. Okay, yeah, yeah, pretty good. He
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: got two more goals to go retake the lead and
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: get up to up to fifty eight, which is awesome.
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: But Pickles is really he's really been been on a march.
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: But you got that guy. You get the leading scoring
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: defenseman of the league, get the number one blue line
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: of the league. Combined, they've got one hundred and one points.
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: There was a time two weeks ago when they were
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: tied with Washington and now they're like sixteen points clear
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: of the Caps. Are fifteen or sixteen points clear of
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: the Caps. I mean, they just have a lot going right,
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: and they bring it every night. You heard about the
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: mentality vic from the coach. It's not yeah, we can
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: out we know we can out talent the opposition. It's hey, man,
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: we have the talent, but we got to have the work.
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: And that's what they did last night.
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: All right, boys, let's chop it up real quick.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: Left tackle Garrett Bowles, the Broncos nominee for Walter Payton
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: Man of the Year on his quarterback.
• 27:50
  Speaker 8: Number, tends a freaking Asian man. I've been telling you
• 27:51
  Speaker 8: guys this for the last two years. I mean he
• 27:54
  Speaker 8: just I don't know what he has. I don't know
• 27:56
  Speaker 8: if he goes in the halftime or before the game
• 27:58
  Speaker 8: and gets hooked up to an ivy and puts some
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: green juice and then he turns into a hole guy.
• 28:02
  Speaker 8: I don't know what he does, but he is awesome.
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 28:05
  Speaker 8: He's just so composed and calm, and he's just a
• 28:08
  Speaker 8: special person.
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: I'm grateful.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: We realize that bo Nicks is well on his way
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: to becoming the winningest quarterback over their first two seasons
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: in NFL history.
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: Right, that is crazy when you say it that way,
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: that is crazy. And that is his special superpower. We've
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: talked about this, his ability to maintain his composure not
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: lose his poise. That's what it is, and he's done
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: it time and time again. He's shown us he can
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: do that.
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: Well, you better get your you better get your your
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: wins in now, because pretty soon, if that quarterback continues
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: to do what he's doing right this second, he's going
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: to be a fifty million dollar quarterback and you are
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: going to have to make some decisions now right now,
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: right now. You got time.
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: Oh and there's another reference, So that's bulls referencing what
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: green Juice the Hulk. Okay, as Sean Payton talked about
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: the goo.
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: The goo, Yeah yeah, okay.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Well you know you know Bownecks, by the way, leads
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: the NFL and completion percentage since week thirteen, tied with
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen. Pretty crazy. I mean he is balling right now.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: Good for both. All right, next up, Adam Silver. Last night,
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: the NBA Cup could be moving.
• 29:20
  Speaker 9: We're talking with Amazon Prime about whether it makes sense
• 29:23
  Speaker 9: to maybe go to some unique locations for the final game.
• 29:26
  Speaker 9: They've suggested, for example, some like storied college arena. So
• 29:30
  Speaker 9: we're just looking looking at other ways we could do this.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: All right, is there anywhere they could put the NBA
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Cup that you'd want to watch it?
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: I mean I watched it. I'm not gonna be night.
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: I've watched it. But the ramifications of the game they
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: don't equal what all the hype is. I mean, Stan
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: Van Gundy, if you watch that game, I'm sorry. I
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: love Stan. He was embarrassing. He was hyping up that
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: game as if it was the NBA Final.
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: All Right, did you guys just see what I just
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: sent you?
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: No, it was funny outside of him, all the people
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: celebrating that's oh.
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: Look at all. Look at the crowd outside of MSG
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: in New York celebrated. It's like the streets are empty. Guys,
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: there's a there's a there's a a hotdog wrapper blowing
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: down the street. Like nobody, nobody cares about this vig
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: the game. Why are we Why are we doing why
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: are we doing this?
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: The game doesn't count in nobody cares. But no, no,
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: the other games of the NBA Cup. Like there was
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: a game played between the Houston Rockets and the Denver
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: Nuggets the other night. It was a fallout from the
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: NBA Cup. Play right, they got scheduled together. Last I checked.
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: That game counts in the standings. The Nuggets improved in
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: nineteen and six. It counts the one we saw last night.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: There's no history of it. It just goes poof, it
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: goes away. I don't get it.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: Congratulations to the Knicks who win the twenty twenty five
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Emirates NBA Cup. Enjoy that little bonus you get, and
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: we'll all get back to real basketball.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: I mean, everybody everybody wants some money.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: I mean that'd be nice. I mean give it to
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: the fans, like then I'll be invested. Yeah, by the way.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: Moving on to her on New Heights the Kelsey's podcast,
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Travis addressed being eliminated from the playoffs and still having
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: to play football.
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: For the first time since twenty fourteen.
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: The Chiefs are eliminated from the postseason, which is in
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: outrageous stat Guess how do you approach the rest of
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: the season. Yeah, it's kind of unfamiliar territory at this
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: point for a lot of guys in the building, guys
• 31:26
  Speaker 7: that have been there, and I'm the only one that's
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: been on the team long enough to see us not
• 31:31
  Speaker 7: make the playoffs. There's an integrity thing here that you
• 31:34
  Speaker 7: know when you sign up for the gig, you're living
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: out your dreams. You're living out a a kid's dream
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: that never got a chance to do this. You're living
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: out you know, you're playing this game obviously to win
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: Super Bowls. You're playing this game to be in those
• 31:51
  Speaker 7: playoffs scenarios and stuff. But at the end of the day, man,
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: you're playing in the NFL.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: What kind of effort are we going to see Christmas
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: Night from that Canvas City team.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: I think that's a healthy way to look at it. Yeah,
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: I'm eager to find out. I really am I. I
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: want to know what they do. That was the question
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: I asked. Now that they've been eliminated, what happens to
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: the guys with lingering injuries? I mean, if you're a player,
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: a veteran and you've got your contract coming up and
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: you got a sore hammy, why not shut it down?
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: What do you have to play for?
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: It's a good point, Vic. At the same time, I mean,
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: that's a healthy way for Travis Kelsey to look at it.
• 32:30
  Speaker 5: I commend him for that because they've never been in
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: that position. That being said, your starting quarterback is going
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: to be Gardner Minshew and no offense to the to
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: the you know, Gene shorts wearing RV driving hippie quarterback.
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: But that Broncos defense is going to destroy him again.
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: And I don't think it matters how much want to
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: you have or who's in the lineup. Garden Minshew ain't
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: beating the Denver Broncos defense, period And if still so,
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: it doesn't matter.
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: It's dub They've got an opportunity to matah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: stay with me.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: Big time dub.
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: Big time dub calling, big time win.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Broncos are gonna wrap up the AFC on Christmas night
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: and we're all gonna have a very merry, merry Christmas.
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: Sign me up for that.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: By the way, Chiefs have a chance to at least
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: find some sort of momentum for Gardner this weekend. They're
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: in Tennessee and there was a report yesterday that Kelsey
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: was considering and leaning very heavily towards retirement before the
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: season went off the rails like this, But apparently this
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: isn't how he wants to go out. So indeterminate about
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey's future, we'll just have to wait and see.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Mos'er with us back from Seattle after a big Avs
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: win last night, tons more to get into stick around.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: On the other side, it's more Mosa, Lombardi and Kane
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: with Matt Smith. Did you watch that Nuggets game on
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: Monday against the Rockets and wish you were there? I
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: got some good news for you. We're giving away tickets
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: to Saturday's rematch all day tomorrow in our Nuggets ticket
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: You know the drill keywords always on the twenties Nuggets
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: ticket Thursdays are powered by the Will Height Law Firm,
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: giving you a chance to win big on and off
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: the court visit Willhightwinds dot Com. By the way, some
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: breaking news in the NFL this morning, guys that we
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: need to get to. Adam Schefter reporting that the Dolphins
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: are officially benching quarterback to a tungo I Looa and
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: turning to rookie quinn Ewers out of Texas as their
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: new starting quarterback. Now that the Dolphins are donezo in
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, is this the end of Tua in Miami?
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: They shouldn't have paid him in the first place. They
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: were in between a rock and a hard place when
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: they did it. But now they're really up. You know what, Creek, Yeah,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: gonna have to eat that money. Gonna have to eat it,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: just like the Broncos ate their money and thrived.
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: You know, at some point you get to the what
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: what are we doing here? How much do they have
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: to eat? Fifty four mil?
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: Well, as a frame of reference, the biggest single season
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: dead money charge, obviously he was Russell's at fifty three
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: over two years, Wilson at eighty five, so two was
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: gonna be at ninety nine point two, So it would
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: technically be worse than russ.
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: Wow, I didn't think that anything could be worse than
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: Russ except DeShawn Watson.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good point. So that's what Miami's faced
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: with right now.
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: What have I been telling you, Matt when I talk
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: about Dolphins football? It's just that he's not the guy
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: he used to be. And when you suffer that many
• 35:28
  Speaker 5: concussions and you get that beat up, how can you
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: be the guy you used to be? I mean how
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: at one point you know Tua could play the game,
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: and he got into a really good groove there for
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: a little while. And the Dolphins are a postseason team.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: But eventually all those things they add up. And whether
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: you know he's I don't even know what the situation is.
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: I just know he's not the same. He can make
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: good plays, but he's far from consistent. He did not
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: have a terrible game this past weak but just it's
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: not good. So I guess my biggest question is why
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: are they going with the Texas quarterback when my boy's
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: sitting on the bench. Wait and get a shot.
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: Who's your boy? His boys? Ohaz, Willy big Z, Willie.
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: Number zero, that's my boy, that's my boy.
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: Why is it your boy shot?
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: To win games, you have to win the game.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: Not lose the game.
• 36:22
  Speaker 6: Why is he your boy? Give me the give me
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: the backstory here.
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I just like I I fall in
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: love with arms, Matt. That's what I do with Jordan love.
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: That's that's exactly right. That's why I like Mike.
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: Vick got it.
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: That's why you know. I I just I go back
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: in time and I just I love these arms. That's
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: why I loved John Elway. I mean, if you watch
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: John Elway plant and throw the football, it's one of
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: the greatest. It's one of the greatest visuals in the
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: history of sports as far as I'm concerned. Vick, I
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: don't know how you feel about it, but watching John
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: Elway throw the football and sling the pig around the
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: yard was it was pactical. It was a joy because
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: it's just it's a gift that comes from the heavens.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: It's not that you cultivated. Maybe I guess you can
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: get stronger or whatever, but the release that everything about
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: it is a joy. And Zach Wilson has got a
• 37:13
  Speaker 5: big arm.
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: Well, evidently he doesn't have a big head because our
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: brain because he's not playing.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: By the way, news out of Arizona reportedly Kenny Dillingham,
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: the head coach of Arizona State, is trying to leverage
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: ASU into a bigger raise and more resources for the
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: school because Michigan has been flirting with him to hire
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: him as their head coach. I mean, we've already seen
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: the Penn State job. He used as leverage for all
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: these other guys across the country to get raises. That's
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: what's gonna happen with Michigan, and Michigan's in a weird
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: place because they are at the end of the hiring cycle.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: The portal opens up here on January second. I mean,
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: we heard Biff Pogi yesterday.
• 37:54
  Speaker 10: It has been a tumultuous time, a lot of you know,
• 37:58
  Speaker 10: anger and then yeah, first disbelief, then anger then really,
• 38:05
  Speaker 10: what we're in right now is the phase so far
• 38:09
  Speaker 10: the kids quite frankly, feel very betrayed.
• 38:12
  Speaker 5: Right right, right, right, hey, man, Matt, this is the reality.
• 38:18
  Speaker 5: You're ready for this. I'm ready when you have a
• 38:20
  Speaker 5: coach that's pretty competent, and I think Dillingham is although
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: they finished what fifth or sixth in the conference, but
• 38:28
  Speaker 5: but obviously last year they took the world by storm. Well,
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: you have a coach that's pretty competent, and these big
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: jobs come up. You have to decide as a program,
• 38:34
  Speaker 5: who the hell you are? Who do you want to be?
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: You want to take because here's the story. You got
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: to be committed. If you're ASU and you want to
• 38:45
  Speaker 5: keep your coach, you're going to have to be committed.
• 38:47
  Speaker 5: Either you have the money or you don't. And if
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: you're if you're Dillingham, you have to decide this too.
• 38:53
  Speaker 5: Do you think he likes living in Tempe, Arizona. I'll
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: bet he does.
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: He's from there, he loves it, his sisters.
• 39:02
  Speaker 5: Oh you're kidding me. No, I had no idea. Okay,
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: well there you go. So what do you want? Ken?
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: Do you want lifestyle? You want to pull a Jim
• 39:12
  Speaker 5: Mora and have the lifestyle that you want in a
• 39:15
  Speaker 5: pretty good damned place and enjoy life as well, and
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: you know, stay by living by your sister and your
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: mother and and all your buddies and friends and whatnot,
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: and be very comfortable with where you grew up. Or
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: do you want to chase the bag because the bag's
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: going to be out there for you. So you know what,
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: if I'm Arizona State, I also say, well, try to
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: do our best to give you more resources, you know,
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: for your contract and for nil but we we can't.
• 39:40
  Speaker 5: We can't compete with Michigan. I'm sorry this, we can't
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: do it. So so you have to decide what do
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: you want, homie, What do you want home? Slice? Do
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: you want to stay here or do you want to
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: go for the bag?
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: Well, this is what every coach in the country is
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: facing now. It's not just a question of how much
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: money you're making, how much are your assistants make, how
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: much you have available to pay the players. Can you compete?
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: Because sometimes the best coaching jobs in all the sports,
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: they're not the ones with the great teams, are the
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: ones with mediocre teams, mediocre mediocre facilities, mediocre skill, and
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: you still make something out of it. Those are the
• 40:17
  Speaker 4: great coaching jobs. If everybody's got unlimited funds, anybody can
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: coach that up unlimited funds.
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: Is that you drinking?
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: That's right, having some water. There's like a camel right now.
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: He's like a camel right now. He will not stop
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: drinking water, still going forty much. How you drink?
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: You've had enough, buddy, you throw up all that water.
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: By the way on the shop, Masa text line Vick.
• 40:53
  Speaker 5: Come over, come over here, see your water face.
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: Let me see you make out.
• 40:57
  Speaker 5: With them again.
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: Earlier was telling us that he was approached by his
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: it was your youngest daughter correct, Yeah, by his youngest
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: daughter asking to lend the funds or to give the funds.
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: So she she wanted my debit card to go get
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: some bitcoin.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: So she could go buy some bitcoin to use for
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: what to get her ID? To get her a new
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: fake ID. Yeah, this guy in the text line, I
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: was bartending downtown Kylorado Springs and knew pretty much every
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: bartender bouncer on the stretch. I gave my little brother
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: my ID, said you can go anywhere that isn't downtown.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: He immediately went downtown, and I got a call from
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: a bouncer asking if I had my wallet stolen. He
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: got caught literally immediately. There's some great stuff.
• 41:35
  Speaker 5: Like, hey man, look, you're shut up perfectly. Just don't
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: go anywhere downtown. I mean, go up the fountain if
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: you got to do whatever it is you gotta do.
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: The dog's butt is in your face and you're talking
• 41:47
  Speaker 6: on the radio. Dog almost joked about.
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: The hell are we doing here?
• 41:54
  Speaker 6: What is wrong with you?
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, the dog's butt is literally right in his mouth.
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: Clip that, I mean, clip clip that, for sure.
• 42:04
  Speaker 5: This is what happens. You want thirty and the boss says, hey, listen,
• 42:12
  Speaker 5: get an extra, get an extra thirty two minutes of
• 42:14
  Speaker 5: sleep and do the show from home at eight, and
• 42:17
  Speaker 5: you say, okay, show, it's good, and you're dying, and
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: then your dog drinks water like a camel and then
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: puts his butt in your face.
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: Back to your question, I uh sorry, sorry, boys. I
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: respect the effort to go get a fake IDA. I
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: think we've all been there at some point, those of
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: us who've always looked prepubescent. Even when I was twenty one,
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: I felt like I had to have fake ID. I
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: respect the effort, all right, But this whole uh bitcoin
• 42:45
  Speaker 4: crypto thing that scares me scares the hell out of me.
• 42:48
  Speaker 4: I'm not going there. Do it the old fashioned way.
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: Go to the copy store, use some art skills, go
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: to hobby lobby, drawing up.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: Go to the guy who's print him out of his
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: van in the home people parking lot. I mean, that's
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: figure it out. That's what we did when we were
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: growing up. Yeah, you didn't know if you were gonna
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: get kidnapped or you're gonna get a fake ID.
• 43:08
  Speaker 6: But you knew it was gonna be a story.
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: Figure it out.
• 43:11
  Speaker 6: It's about building character.
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: Money can't solve everything.
• 43:15
  Speaker 5: Hey, tomorrow on the program, we're talking to Uh, we're
• 43:18
  Speaker 5: talking to Jeff Legwald. Correct, yes, sir, because the next
• 43:22

• 43:24

  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good find.
