  Speaker 1: every weekday morning from seven to ten on Altitude Sports
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Radio ninety two five and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: A bunch of places we could start. We get start
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: at Broncos camp. We could start with the stars internationally.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: You're Mbappees and Messies racking up five combined goals between
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: the two and the World Cup yesterday. Or we could
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: start where I want to, which is Ross Colton being
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: dealt yesterday and sort of the first domino of the
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: AVS off season, trying.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: To get this computer worked out, get her going. I
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: think I did, Oh, I did, Okay, great job. We're
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: in business now. Yeah. So here's what happens.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Chris Bigfarland takes the job in Nashville and they go,
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: you know who, I think, I know I could get
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: a deal done with.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: Joe. Always seems to work out that way.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: You left someplace like I know exactly what their needs are,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: I know what our needs are.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: Let's go ahead and do this.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Ross Colton was entering the last year of his contract,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: making four million a year, is dealt for a couple
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: of thirds and then goalie swap goalie prospect swap. I
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: should say Posh.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Was the third goalie throughout the playoffs. He would, you know,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: be out there with guys who weren't playing and take
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: shots and all that kind of thing.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: I wonder if that Colton deal to Nashville. I wonder
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: and wonder if that was part of the deal to
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: free Chris McFarland from his contract here in Colorado.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Saying if we let you have this guy, you have
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: to take this contract.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: Off our heads.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: Sort of an understanding with the Nashville owners and with
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Chris that, Hey, you know you've been here, you built this.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: You know we have to shed some salary, We have
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: to do some things. Nashville. You want to talk to
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: our boy, even though he's under contracts. You want to
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: talk to our boy. Okay, Well, there's some understanding going
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: in and this is one of them.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Never thought of it that way.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Maybe now Colton was sort of your your thirteenth forward
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: entering the postseason. You know, did end up playing a
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: whole lot, but was a healthy scratch the first couple
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: of games. It always felt to me that and maybe
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: this is what benefits Nashville here.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Colton was a.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Maybe a center that they forced him into a winger
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: role here in Colorado, and maybe they see that fit
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: over in Nashville better. Again, I don't know, but it
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: does take your cap space to about seven million, which
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: opens up you could sign a Drewry or a Kulak
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: or somebody like that that you're probably more focused on,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: depending on what you want. But Ross Colton, over the
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: three years that he was here, remember when he first
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: got here, I think he had most correct me if
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I'm wrong, a forty point season, and then each years
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: since then those numbers have declined.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you mean to say?
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: No one answered me. One question. My question was, do
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: you guys think that was part of the deal?
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: I say he did. Never considered. I never considered that
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: it could have been. I don't know, he says. I'm
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: just sitting here waiting. Just be impatient. He said, you know, Vick,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: I never really considered that, but I guess it could
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: have been part of that. Yeah, man, that's yeah.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Would have been too far fetched to make that part
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: of the deal.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: I don't think you'd be too far fetched.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: We've seen coaches traded for draft picks, We've about it,
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: We've seen things like that. So I don't see why
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: that's not. I mean, it happened so quickly after after
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: the move, or.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: It could be that, hey, look, you know Chris is
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: looking over the Preds to go. We have a need.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: They know, they like some picks, they can shed this player.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: We have a need. Let's just get it done. It
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: could have been some as simple as that.
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, it probably was that.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but again he's never been a big points guy
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: and so on. He God, he hit a billion post
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: this year. Yeah, but you can't. I mean there were
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: you know, you can't go months without a goal period, right,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's just it's so Look, I'm not saying
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: he was in anybody's doghouse or anything like that, but
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: you're right, Brett, his production had gone down, maybe his
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: self confidence had gone down a little bit. A new
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: venue for him would probably serve him.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: I like Ross Colton awful lot, he's a good teammate
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: and so on. I'll say, there's but there's nothing, there's
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: nothing wrong. It's that there's nothing wrong with this deal.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: It's not.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's a good deal for the Avs.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: What do you think the assets are for? Is are
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: these trade pieces or you think they're going to use
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: that third rounder this year sear, I don't know, just capital.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see. I mean only Joe sack Ignos the
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: answer to that one.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: I think it was more of a salary shed.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Very well could be vic. I mean, you're saving four
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: mil bucks to accomplish the role that Ross Colton accomplished
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: this year. You can find a guy for less.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: And it allows you to sign one of the guys
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: that you want back.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: No, I I know that's a part of it.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: But you got two third rounders in return, including one
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: in that you're going to use in ten days, right,
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: ten days. I'm wondering is there something they're going to
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: package that for for the immediate because this is how
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the ABS have operated over the last I don't know,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: four or five years.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: If they got picks, they aren't going to be.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Afraid to flip those for something that they want. And
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: it's only a third, but still it could be used
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: in some sort of package, or they take a player.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: I have no idea, but two thirds in the old
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: goalie swap.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: But I believe who you got in the deal.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Moses who was the former playo right Prona, He's already
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: signed a deal to play in Sweden or something thing
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: like that, so he'll be there for the next couple
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: of years. And it doesn't matter because you got Minor's
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: been sort of your number three for a while, and
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: then the back off is coming in.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: You got the kid coming over from from Europe exactly right,
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: So you you you're pretty good in that position. You're
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: shutting some stuff. I don't know what posh will ever
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: turn out to be. I have no idea, but you know,
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: it's it's just a it's a good deal for both teams,
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: I guess. Yeah. Look, Colton can play the game. He's
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: an energy guy. If if then the Preds could use
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: some help in the middle. I don't see it as
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: a problem either way.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: I do think he like when he got bench the
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: first not bench whatever, healthy, scratch, whatever you want to
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: call it, first couple of games in the postseason. Then
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: he got his first taste playing time. I thought he
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: played his ass off.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah he did. He played hard, He played very hard.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Now what he scored the only goal of Game two
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: against Vegas? Yeah, what happens moving forward is the bigger question.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: This is the first sort of domino of the offseason
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: to drop. Now, if you want Drury and Kulak back,
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: you need to shed more salary if you want both
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: of those guys. For me, I wonder who the priority
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: would be right now, Like, if this is all the
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: money you got, who's the one guy that they're looking for?
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Do you want to stay strong up the middle?
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Or you were talking about John Michael Lyles mentioning needs
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: some stay at home defensemen who just do their job.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Well, that's cool.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: He played well though. Man, oh, I.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: Don't want to see Duri goough, but I don't want
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Kolac to go either.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: Kulak.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I thought it was was great since being a quad.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Maybe they're not done. Maybe they make enough room for
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: both good. I mean, I will wait and see. I
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: guess overall, I'm not I'm not super concerned about it.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: Drury had a pretty I mean, he matched his season
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: high season high, he matched his career higen points, had
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: a new career highen goals with ten on the year. Yeah,
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: and again he's just a hard working, heady player, you know,
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: not nobody's superstar, but you got to you gotta have
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: guys like that to win, you know, hard working, steady player.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Vick you asked the question, do you think this trade
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: might have had some nudge nudge, wink wink, We'll let
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: you have McFarland if you do something for us sort
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: of thing. Maybe I have sort of a unanswerable question
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: too when I said that Torts isn't coming back to Vegas.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: I know people in the hockey world, most I guess,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: aren't all that surprised by this.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: I am. I mean, he took a team who's light
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: was down to just a little bit of a spark
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: and then turned that into a bonfire again, damn near
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: one of Stanley Cup with it. Why would they not
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: win him?
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: Mac Well, he did cost him a draft pick and
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: one hundred thousand dollars.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: I I'm not saying that's the reason why. But seatly
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: didn't help. He got he got bopped for one hundred
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: jes they leave per second round, correct, which completely sucks.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: I always said for like a seasonal employee, imagine like
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: you're working at the mall around Christmas and you're like
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: one of the elves and you cost them all fifty
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: grand doing something you probably aren' getting a call a.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: Well, and we don't know behind the scenes. I mean,
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: I think You could take Tortorella in doses, but if you,
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: you know, coming out of that fire hose for an
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: entire season or two, that could be a different deal.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: They've been grooming the guy at Henderson for a while. Yeah,
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: the head coach of the of the Silver Knights, the
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: Henderson Silver Knights, the Golden.
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: Knights, the Silver Knight, and Henderson is over the place.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Man. They love their knights down there, don't they love
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: their knights shining almah. Anyway, they've been grooming that guy.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Apparently for some time. They weren't gonna bring him firing Cassidy.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: They were gonna bring him up from the a and
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: stick him in there for the end of the season
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: in a playoff run.
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: Isn't Henderson most Juno Vegas better than I Isn't that
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: the rich part of Vegas?
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, throw all the bigs built in Scottsdale of Vegas.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: So they throw a minor league hockey joint down there
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: and say go get them.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Yep. Okay, So let me ask you a question. Vegas
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: lost it. You didn't get that reference, by the way, whatsoever?
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: Did you? What? What's reference that's from the Stone's emotional rescue.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: I'll be a Knight in shining. Omah, No, I just
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: heard an accent.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Yep, none of us got it.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: I know, because you guys are adults. That's why hang
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: on your adults. Let me ask you a question. The
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Vegas dumb is that doorknob The Vegas Knights lost in
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: six games in the Stanley Cup?
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Fine a place that nobody thought they'd be when they
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: fired their coach.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: If they lost in seven towards to keep the job, No,
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: I think it was understood.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Okay, if they win the Stanley Cup, just towards to
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: keep the job, maybe, like, is.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: That what it would have taken.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Maybe talking to about the fact that we're saying like
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: maybe towards you're telling me the coach, I know it
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: sounds crazy. And have them kick ass for like a
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: month and a half straight, two months and win the
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: Cup and you're like, thanks for your service.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: See us small doses.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Of torts success or failure? How would you deem the
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: Vegas run success or failure?
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: For torts?
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: Talking about I'm talking about for the team success.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: I still think successful.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Depends how you look at it. They may they may
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: look at it differently.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'll give you another example. It's very, very similar.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: The Nuggets fired their coach last year right before the playoffs. Yeah,
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Adaman won a playoff series and kept the job. Now
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: maybe they're going to do that anyway because he was
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: already on the bench. I have no idea, but that
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: was deemed enough to keep the job.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: The difference is Tortorella came in with the reputation that
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: we're very well aware of. Yeah, like this is some
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: guy off the street. You don't know how he's going
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: to react. He gets he wears guys out.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be two years down the line.
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: Maybe you can wear somebody on two weeks.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Maybe it's my understanding talking to my people around the
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: league that both sides that there really wasn't ever a
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: thought that he was going to stay around when he
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: took the gig and when they hired him, that this
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: is just a this is a temp job. You're are
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: you gonna come in? Hey, look you're not a starter,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: you're a closer. You come in, you have closed the
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: game out and then bye bye bye.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: There also probably wasn't a thought that they'd actually make
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup Final and potentially win the damn thing.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, here's what he did do. He made a
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: lot of money for that organization with home games in
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: the playoffs because they were floundering. They were they were
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: in the Carnor McDavid pillow fight. Were they even gonna
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: make it? Were they? I mean, they certainly weren't gonna
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: be a one.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: It just seems so weird that it'd be like, yeah,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: we brought this guy in to provide a spark.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: He provided a spark, and if.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: You won the Stanley Cup, you'd be like, there's still
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: a question whether he'd still be there or not.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: That's bizarre to me.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Crazy, And yet there are a lot of Vegas fans
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: who are blaming Towards as well. Oh, I saw, why'd
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: you challenge that call? Layton licen to So?
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Against the Avalanche, he's the smartest and blanker in the war,
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: But against uh Carolina, he's suddenly become the dumbest, most
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: hard headed, idiot, stubborn coach in the world. I mean,
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: you know, look, they had a bad week. Yeah, towards fault. Yeah. Again,
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: when you look at when you look at those stats
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: for Carter hart vic I, there's no kids on the
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: way to school, right, There's no there's no children listening
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: to the program. Is that correct?
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: No, they're just going to daycare.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: Now, okay, Well they wouldn't understand what I'm saying anyway
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: if they're going to daycare. He played so far out
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: of his backside. It's it's when you look at the
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: raw data, the analytical data. This guy played a way
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: above his head, way above his head. It's unbelievable. He
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: had a horseshoe surgically implanted somewhere in his bowel area.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Well, then it was removed.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: I reckon it fell out.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Sorry, Emosh, I know every time we talk about hockey
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: you get upset.
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: Let's tell you what, how long until you're normal again?
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. Vicot took you a minute too.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: I brought up basketball for like a three four weeks
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: after the Nuggets were out.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: You got angry still? Yeah? Right. Also, look at your
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: hair in your face today.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at my face. I'm not fond of it.
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: I think my hair is sort of like I like it.
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: It's different.
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: It's much it's dirty cheek.
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: I like it. It's like, you know, it looks like
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: like what a model would do with their hair to
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: look really cool at night.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but you just rolled out of bed and stuffed
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: it all.
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: I did, I did. I just rolled out of bed.
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: That's rolled out of bed hair. But some people that
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: style right there, some people would kill for that.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: I probably would. My herd's getting too thin.
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: So would you kill for that style right there? Just
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: look at it? You would want that?
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Did you just say it's what a model would look like?
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: Well, the hair, the hair, not the rest of it.
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: The face is just a leathery glove. But the hair itself,
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: you have to admit, look at it. Look what it does.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: Look at how it glistens, look at how it folds over.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, I'm good.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: Let me see your hair. I just just for comparing contrast.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Oh your hair is better. That's not that.
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, Opie, Opie's here, Hey moj Opie's here?
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Call that be? What where are you know? What happened?
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I go the same lad you always go to and
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: she said the same yes, And then she took the
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: guard off and then started buzzing my head again.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: Well that's not the same. That's not the same.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: But we're here now, you've already done it, so now
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: we're gonna finish.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: You know, it's so weird, dude, you are so don't
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: don't don't put you don't put your hair back on
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: a second, turn to the side, turn to the kid
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: right there. Don't move, don't move, don't move. Number one,
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: you've got a gigantic ass forehead. Yeah, it's called retractable roofe.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: I'm losing my hair. Number two, it looks in this
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: light it looks like you have no eyebrows. You know
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: what it looks like you You look that is weird looking. No,
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: it's well colored.
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: If you had a white background instead of that altitude background,
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't be able to see your face.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: We can arrange it. You are strange of you look
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: so weird. See like Vick and I look normal with
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: them without a hat, without a hat, you do look weird.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: It's true. How in the world do you have two kids?
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: A beautiful maybe girls? Do you?
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: I sort of got I saw you at that Nuggets
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: game when you weren't weren't wearing a hat. I remember
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: turning to someone saying, who is this.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: It's startling.
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: Oh crap, it's Brett.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: It's startled. She said, I looked good that night. You did,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: But it is startling, dude. I'm a hat guy.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: What won't you think if you saw Brett Michaels without
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: that stupid headband around his head or that cowboy hat,
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: look weird, wasn't it?
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: Did you just compare yourself to a rock star? I
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: don't want to be Brett Michaels. Okay, who do you
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: want to be? A nighteen shining Amah?
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: Look at the waves though, look at the waves on
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: the top.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, good waves.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: Good.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: A lot of audio yesterday, bo Nick's back at Broncos
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: practice audio from him and Sean Payton.
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: Next Broncos Mini camp is underway, which means it's time.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: For bow Nix Anklegate.
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: Three, Tokyo Drift. Predisposed or not predisposed. Wall to wall
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: Ankle coverage on Altitude Sports Radio more ankles than Rex
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: Ryan's camera roll, more ankles than an Amish Playboy magazine.
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: Why because Altitude Sports Radio loves ankles.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: It was great.
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: You know, they've been practicing for a couple of weeks.
• 17:53
  Speaker 6: Today it was my first time kind of getting out
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: there and sort of going through everything with him. Uh,
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: but it was great. It was as I expected. It
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: was a very clean operation. Are guys who were doing
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: a great job, Sam and Jarrett and they're doing phenomenal
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: as expected, and then the rest of the guys are
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: just playing really well and sort of getting used to everything.
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: And not that it's even changed a lot, just some
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: nuances and some different things, but guys are picking it
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: up really well, handling it well, and I just I
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: think it's probably the furthest we've been at this point
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: of the season. So I'm really confident and excited to
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: get good summer into training camp with these guys.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: Bo Nick's back on the field yesterday. Can we all relax?
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: Now? It's funny Nelly made this played it in the Appetizer.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: I have the first thing written on my sheet regarding
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Bronco's mini camp is can we stop the panic about
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: bo Nick's ankle now?
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: Well, according to Nate Krekman, who was at at practice,
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: he didn't look right well.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Bo said if he had to be full go right now,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: he would be full go, and they're just holding him
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: back for whatever purpose is.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: I'm just telling you what our in Triporter reported. You
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: can look it up on the afternoon show. I listened
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: to it. He said he didn't look right.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Again, I have never been one of the people that
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: has been panicking about the ankle thing.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: Uh, I just look back at his history.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: I really think, what is the total number how many
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: games has he missed in college? In the pros? Like
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: five his entire career? He plays, he plays, yeah, yeah,
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: and and a lot of times quarterbacks don't play at
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: one hundred percent. There's still plenty of time for his
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: ankle to get right. He did say this about mobility concerns.
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: Well, my concern is they say it's you know, back healthy,
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: as good as new, and that I hadn't really been
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: like that in a couple of years. So my concern
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: is maybe move around a little bit better.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: That's what his concern is. Maybe I'm better than I was.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: He also mentioned, I mean, listen, I agree with bo.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's a tough dude. He's going to come
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: back from it. It's not the end of the world
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: that you got your ankles cut open. Okay. However, having
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: broken and both ankles myself, there's some things that his
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: ankles have developed that not everybody gets. Bone spurs. You
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: mentioned they had to go clean up some bone spurs.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: That's a new development. You guys aware of the bone
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: spurs clean up.
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so the first one obviously right after the season,
• 20:16
  Speaker 6: non wait, bearing for a couple of weeks, get back
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: going felt pretty good, still having a little bit of
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: an issue with a bone spurs. So what we did
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: was is, even though I probably could have gone again,
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: done the whole season again, it was just aggravated me
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: for too long. So what we did was, since I
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: was a little bit ahead, thought it best to go
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: ahead and decompress it a little bit and then still
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: have plenty of time to get back for the summer
• 20:39
  Speaker 6: to prepare for the season. Knew that OTAs would be
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: a good learning experience from you know, on side perspective,
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: watching getting sort of my mental reps and then getting
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: all my physical reps as of summer and season comes.
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: But feel really good where I'm at. I'm actually sort
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: of glad we've got it all out of the way.
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: Don't have to do it in the years to come.
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: So bone spurs, You could live with bone spurs. The
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: thing is they cause pain. They press on the nerves.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: The only way to eliminate that pain is to eliminate
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: the spurs. You scrape them off. Essentially, you got to
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: go in there and scrape them it's like chip the
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: bones or something, right, Yeah, I mean, and I'm not
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: sure exactly how they develop. But he had him in
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: his ankles in addition to the broken ankles. And it's
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: not a reach to say bon Nix has an ankle problem.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: That's not offensive. No, that's not It's okay. He's managed it. Again.
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: Proof isn't in the pudding. He plays, He's been available.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: He plays through this.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like he's suggesting that he's had these
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: for a while and played through them for a while.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: And I've I mean, I watched him on Sundays. Seemed
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: like he was pretty mobile in the past.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: Now it's different.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: He actually broke the ankle here last you know what
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: was that January seventeenth or whatever that was, So it
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: is different in that sense. But I'm going to take
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: the approach of I will be concerned when I see
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I see pretty obvious debilitation, which I don't believe there
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: will be.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: You won't, no, I mean, not not anytime soon, the debilitation.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: But you won't really know how he looks until we
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: get to September, because full throttle. Yeah, if he plays,
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: if he plays it all in August, I'll be shocked well.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Towards the towards the end of his press conference, he
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: did say this because somebody asked him, what have you
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: thought about the discourse surrounding your broken ankle? Kind of
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: what we're doing right now.
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: I think it's funny. Well, for one, nobody's really ever
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: cared about, you know, me this extensively for a long time,
• 22:47
  Speaker 6: So I don't I don't think it's a bad thing.
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: You know, I got little kids at the bark asking
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: me if my legs are crooked and all, and I
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: just I think it's uh, sort of crazy.
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: We live in a culture.
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: That's you know, you get second hand so and you
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: just run with him and believe him. But at the
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: end of the day, I've been here before. I feel great.
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna be strong, I'm gonna be fast, elusive. Everything
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: that's I've done in the past I'm gonna be able
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: to do again. I mean, it's a it's a broken bone.
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: For crying out loud, everybody probably here has had an
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: issue with a broken bone. But and you end up
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: right back the same.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: I totally believe him. He is too good. But but
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: but here's the butt. It doesn't eliminate the possibility of
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: another injury, sure in the ankle area, because he's got
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: an ankle issue.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: Bo, why are we talking about your ankle? Why is
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: why is this speculation happening? What's going on with that?
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: It's because Number one year, the quarterback of the Denver Broncos.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: We talked about eight Manning's foot. Remember the year they
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: won the Super Bowl? The foot. That's all we talked about.
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: Number about his neck incessantly.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: I mean he said he's in the he's in the
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: tob with his helmet on and his iPad with his
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: foot being soaked. Number two, you broke your ankle and
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: you couldn't play in the AFC Title Game and so
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: you couldn't go to the Super Bowl. Number three you
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: broke your ankle just running. Yeah, they didn't get rolled
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: up on Number four. I didn't get rolled. I mean,
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: so it's it's it's like number four.
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: Forget Number four. You broke your ankle, you had surgery
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: and then they have to have another surgery. So it's
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: not separate issue.
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: It's not like it's a non issue to the Denver
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: Bronco fan base and to us talking dork heads, it
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: is an issue. Is it a tiny now minor issue
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: in your eyes. Okay, great, I believe you. I believe
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: him everything he just said. I find he.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Doesn't seem nervous about it does and he probably shouldn't.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: It's just that it's something that we and I'm sure
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: the Denver Broncoes will keep an eye on. He's right
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: about this though.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: It's like if you had to have a star play
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: of yours suffer an injury that kept him out an
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: extended period of time. A broken bone is much better
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: than a you know, some sort of torn hair or something.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Now, if it's compound leg flopping fraction like, that's a
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: little bit different.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: But the other stuff that he said that I thought
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: was although angle a second, because when I blew up
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: my achilles, right, I'm just saying I would rather have
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: had like knee replacement or hip replacement. Careful what you
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: wish for. How's your brother doing? Not good?
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: Took him two years to get his golf swing back.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: It sucked before.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: Well he shot even yesterday.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: Not a chance. Okay, there's not a chance on earth
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: Mario shot even par.
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: All right, I'm just making that up, All right, fine,
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: all right, well you.
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: Tell him this week. I challenged. I challenged him as
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: with any of The point is you can't play you
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: can't play football with a new hip. I get that.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Just saying something's modern technology nowadays, dude, it's pretty amazing.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: So a couple of things.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: That Bonick said yesterday, by the way, about things that
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: weren't his ankle. Number one, he talks about Davis Webb.
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: He had, you know, several chances to go be you know,
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: straight up a head coach. So I think we were
• 26:10
  Speaker 6: fortunate to keep him as an organization. Just excited to
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: see his growth and maturity as a play caller. Obviously
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: it'll be his first time, but he's prepped and been
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: waiting for this day for a long time, and you know,
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: this is his first opportunity. So he's got to make
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: the most of it, and he knows that, and he's
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: working really hard. He's had a really successful grind this offseason.
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: Taking what we have, how can we grow it, How
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: can we make it a little bit more suitable for
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: where we are now, How can we make it to
• 26:34
  Speaker 6: where he enjoys calling it and comfortable for him? And
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: then at the end of the day, how can he
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: teach me to go out there and execute it and
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: perform We think similarly, So that's gonna be the fun
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: part as we go.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: The important thing to think about is this is like,
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: it's not a brand new offense. We know that they
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: are going totally away from the Sean Payton philosophy, but
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: it is new.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: It is new.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: The last thing he said there, we think similarly, what
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: is that that? That's a great I want to know.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: I want to zero in on that. We think similarly,
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: what what are you going to see more of that?
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: They both like, what is bowl like more than what
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: Sean Payton gave him opportunities to execute?
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: What intermediate stuff?
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: Maybe I don't know. That's and that's why I can't
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: wait to watch this offense. I can't wait to see
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: it unfold because David web just just on the surface
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: sounds to me like he's gonna let it go a
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: little bit more than Sean Payton did well.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: I think last year it was a lot of this
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: And there's another clip I want to play here in
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: a second, but go back to last year, the Broncos
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: pass game felt like it was screen pass, screen pass,
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: screen pass, fifty yard bomb, screen pass, screen pass, forty
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: yard bombs. You know what I mean, Like it'd be
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: third and eight and instead of having a twelve yard
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: route beyond the chains, it was let's take the shot
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: downfield at Troy Franklin or something. Now he said this,
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: this is about Waddle, but I think it applies the
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: offense as a whole.
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: Well, there's an element of explosiveness that I think as
• 28:04
  Speaker 6: an offense we've we've lacked for a couple of years.
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: Not you know, we've had plenty of explosive plays, plenty
• 28:10
  Speaker 6: of you know, points, all that kind of stuff. We've
• 28:13
  Speaker 6: made great strides, but there's a level of explosiveness that
• 28:15
  Speaker 6: a guy like that adds. So you could be you know,
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: first and ten starting to drive and you know, go
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: one and done because he takes it seventy five eighty yards.
• 28:24
  Speaker 6: So that's the kind of weapon that we added. And
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: that's I think what we've all been out here watching
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: and sort of really enjoying.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: Washington see with that, here's the way that I think
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: about it, because he is right about this.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: You know what's crazy about the Broncos offense last year?
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: How would you qualify their offense? Like what would you
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: say best describes them?
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: Inconsistent at times?
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: It could be explosive.
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: It was in hibernation for parts of the game and
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: then all of a sudden, boom, here they come.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: All the numbers bear out, like literally total yards, passing
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: yards per game, rushing yards per game, points per game.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: They were top half in the NFL in all of them. Yeah,
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: but what Vick's talking about is how did they come
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: about those situation? Those are those yards, those yards per play,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: all that kind of thing. It's how it looked. So
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: I was looking at it looked it looked inconsistent. I
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: was looking at explosive plays. So if you're looking at just.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Twenty plus yard passing plays, bo Nicks twelfth in the league.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: Twelfth bo Knicks in forty plus yard pass plays, he
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: was two four, six eight ten to thirteenth in the league.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: Again top half.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: But to your point, here's the issue to me, and
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: this is where maybe Davis web can fix some of
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: this stuff. When he talks about explosive plays with Jalen Waddell,
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: they had explosive plays last year, but they all kind
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: of looked the same. It was him throwing over the
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: top to somebody for you know, thirty forty yards. An
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: explosive play for Jalen Waddle is he's crossing over the
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: middle three yards past the line of scrimmage and then
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: he takes that for thirty. You didn't have any guys
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: who could do that last year, and I think that's
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: a huge missing piece in your offense. You know, when
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill has an eighty yard touchdown, is it always
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill catching a fifty yard bomb downfield. No, he
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: hits a slant route, makes a guy miss, and then
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: he's too fast he can't catch him. That's the stuff
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: that I think Waddle brings to the table that has
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: been missing from this offense for a long time. It's
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: been way too much. And also I think that helps
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: with their main problem last year, which was way too
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: many three and outs, way too many. If you can
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: get some more intermediate stuff with a guy who gets
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: opened quickly and can make a guy miss, now you
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: have third and eighths turn into third and twos and
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: it's a lot more manageable. That's what Wattle feels like
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: to me, along with the idea that yes, he can
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: blow by somebody and be wide open fifty yards downfield two.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: He's got that aspect to his game. But they had
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: explosis plays last year, and so it's like being more explosive,
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: maybe more consistently, instead of three straight quarters of nothing
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: followed by three forty yard pass plays in the fourth
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: quarter that get you back.
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: In the game again. I cannot wait for Davis Whoabman
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: Bohnicks to do their thing. You know, they're only what
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: is it six years apart in age.
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's wild.
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: I mean they're like brothers, right, I'm sure they're very
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: good friends. I'm sure in the background they're like conniving saying, Okay,
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: let's see if we can get away with this before
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: the principal comes here, and yeah, sets the rule. You
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. There's a lot of stuff. It's
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: probably not your typical coach player relationship there.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Well, I still remember in Russell Wilson's last year here,
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Remember when Sean Payton started melting down on Russell.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: What game was that? Is that Detroit? I don't even
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: recall that.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: No, that Sean Payton yelled at Russell Wilson on the side, but.
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: I don't recall what specific game that was anymore.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: He wasn't just yelling at Russell Wilson. Davis Webb was
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: right next to him is yelling at him too, and
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: I think it had something to do with calling an
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: audible near the goal line that Sean Payton didn't want.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: And vik U's word conniving. I don't know if it's conniving,
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: but it's like, I have a vision for what could
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: work here if you and me Agaree, let's try it,
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: and maybe Sean Payton's gonna be a lot more lenient
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: on stuff like that.
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: Also, one thing we haven't talked about yet. The Broncos
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: excuse Jonathan Cooper away from mini camp. Well they should
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: because you know he's got a quote work on himself,
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: said Sean Payton. There's two options.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: You either cut him or you tell him don't show
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: up for now until this is figured out right, and
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: they're taking that route there is.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: Well, it doesn't mean it doesn't mean the cutting is
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: not in the future too.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah, you know, we'll get to this a little
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: bit later, but just as a precursor, thing about this
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: for a second. Jonathan Cooper, if he's if all of
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: this stuff ends with him being guilty, he's not gonna
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: be playing for the Denver Broncos. He's not gonna be
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: playing for anybody in the NFL. You've already lost John
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Franklin Myers, your your main thrust, your main positivity on
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: this team. The thing you do best is getting after
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: the passer. Those are two pretty big pieces of your
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: past game that would be missing this year. Agreed and
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: take a huge hit to the thing that you do best.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: So we'll get to that a little bit later. Can
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: listen to us anywhere on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: It is powered by the will Height Law Firm Andrey
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: lawer' is gonna will hepewins dot com.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: This Willhitpewins dot com. That can go for that.
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: I can't go for that.
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: Oh oh, I don't know if you guys know this,
• 33:52
  Speaker 7: but the star players of the World Cup, it's cool stuff.
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: Yesterday Dude Messy with the hat trick and with two goals.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Holland with two goals, so uh, you know it's funny.
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: Does anybody look more Norwegian than that Holland? Got?
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: I think it's Holland Holland, I got. I don't know
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: if you.
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: I mean, he could be cast right now in Game
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: of Thrones. You could cast him as a Viking.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: You could even go Neanderthal if you change up like
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: maybe some scruff on the face and stuff like that.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: I don't know. He's an interesting looking cat. Very ugly, uh,
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's got pretty ugly. Gigantic, gigantic browridge, gigantic.
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: Today's a big day.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: England plays their first match against Croatia, so that's gonna
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: happen at two o'clock. I don't know if you guys
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: watched some of this, did you guys? Here's lats on
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: no what he say? So they game in this segment
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: it's called King of the Jungle, so he is ranking
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: the top ten players of the World Cup and all
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: this is subject to change after games are played. So
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: they had him start this list of lions, this King
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: of the Jungle segment. Okay, our ranking the best players
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: in the World Clup.
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: I saw him do this and I saw the outcome,
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: but I don't know if it's the same moner he
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: does it every day.
• 35:24
  Speaker 8: So my top ten list of lions is.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: This is your list here.
• 35:31
  Speaker 8: It can change very fast because depending on the performance,
• 35:34
  Speaker 8: very fast, and I can switch them out. Also, the
• 35:37
  Speaker 8: reason why you too are not on the list because
• 35:40
  Speaker 8: I'm not so satisfied with your performance so far. You
• 35:42
  Speaker 8: can step it up, you can do better. What do
• 35:44
  Speaker 8: you mean, because if you see number one, the performance
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: of that lion has been outstanding, not even one mistake,
• 35:53
  Speaker 8: world class, number one in the numbers, breaking records. I
• 35:59
  Speaker 8: didn't expect nothing else from that lieon.
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: So they gave you a list.
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: I've been here years, I've never seen them actually bring
• 36:05
  Speaker 6: in vegetation. They gave you a list, and immediately you
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: put yourself at the top of the list.
• 36:10
  Speaker 8: This is my show now, okay, this is his world
• 36:15
  Speaker 8: or my rules.
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: Or no rules.
• 36:16
  Speaker 8: So this is you're in money home now. So please
• 36:19
  Speaker 8: to be in the jungle and be number one in
• 36:22
  Speaker 8: the jungle, you need to beat the number one for
• 36:24
  Speaker 8: the record.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: This was about players playing in the World Cup and
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: number one in big bold letters, bigger than anybody else.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: Yes, of course it looked like a Vicky. Looked like
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: something you'd see on Indiana Jones or the you know,
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: the the Jungle cruise at Disneyland. Like the list right
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: and at the top, it says Lawton, I'm thinking, okay,
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: this must be all time.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: No, no, this is right now, this is right now.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: So he's saying, if you played in the World Cup
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: right now, he'd still be number one, They said, can
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: anybody ever pass you?
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: I want to make sure I understand this. Can anybody
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: actually be number one?
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: You're number one right now?
• 37:04
  Speaker 8: No, it's impossible. Listen the number one there is, So
• 37:07
  Speaker 8: this is the top. Not one of what kind, it's
• 37:09
  Speaker 8: one of my kind. Listen that you're already not going
• 37:15
  Speaker 8: to give you something. And don't wake up the lion,
• 37:17
  Speaker 8: because if you wake up the lion, you can get
• 37:19
  Speaker 8: pretty aggressive.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: Where is the Rebic guy? Rebica? At least she's.
• 37:23
  Speaker 8: Today is Oh, she's the lion tamer's today. But she's
• 37:28
  Speaker 8: doing a good job anyway.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Is being exactly what you'd expect of slots On to
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: be during this television broadcast, and and I it has to.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: Be that way. Now there's another clip that the worst
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: took away. That guy is such a piece of work man. People.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: The only way I can find this is people recorded
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: it off their TV. But the World Cup has taken
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: all these down for copyright reasons. He seems to not
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: like Lexi Laalis at all. I'm just saying, Alexi Lalas
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: said heading into halftime of France France Senegal, right right,
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: and it was tied.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: It was zero zero, nobody scored.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: He goes, I think that France entered this game a
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: little bit arrogant, which isn't good for them, and he.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: Goes only ignorant.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: People say arrogance is a bad thing, like right to
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: his face and meant it, and everybody's kind of looking
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: around like, okay, thanks lots on, But yeah, this is
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: what you'd expect when Lotton is gonna be on TV.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: He's gonna talk about himself. It's not going to stop,
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: I can promise you that.
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: Well. As for the stuff on the field last night, uh,
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: Lionel Messi, I mean, what a masterful performance from a
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: supposed old guy, a guy who took his game to
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: the MLS because his better days were behind him, and
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: yet there he is dominating.
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: I mean to hear, Yeah, Vicky comes over plays in
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: the MLS like a lot of guys. Rooney did it, obviously,
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: Beckham did it, so on and so forth. And in
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: Game one of the World Cup he has a hattie.
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: I mean, he looks the same to me, man, it's incredible.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: So I want you guys to hear this.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of what the World Cup has
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: done for this country in certain markets. The Norwegians were
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: in Boston.
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: Sorry, the Scots. I keep doing that.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: The Scots were in Boston. Sam Adams says from Thursday
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: to Sunday. They call themselves the Tartan Army. Scots drank
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: four times as much Boston Logger as it normally sells
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: during a typical four day holiday stretch like the Fourth
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: of July. They have drank some bars in Boston completely
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: out of booze. They came here to play bagpipes, drink
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: and watch their team win.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: That's what they came here, and that's what they did.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: And I will make a promise when baby Jamal, Kellen,
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: baby Boval get big enough to ward mommy daddy and
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: take trips by themselves again for a few days, I
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: will do the same to your country.
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: I will do that.
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: If that's, if this is, if this is I'm doing
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: the bar that we're setting, I will do that. Well,
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: you need several thousand Brett Kyanes there in order to
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: accomplish it. I'm sing, I'll do my part. I'll do
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: my part. Vicky's gonna be a one man Brett Cane
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: wrecking crew exactly. That's but but think about it now,
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: because people in Boston can really drink, and there are
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: a lot of places to drink. And they were saying that.
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: The one guy said it was three times bigger than
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: Saint Patrick's Day. Yeah, and but how how can you
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: how can they physically get the beers to the bar
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: fast enough? What the logistics of actually putting beers on
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: the bar and taking payment? How does that happen more employees?
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: It's a good question, because you are you. You know
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: you're gonna be busy. I don't think anybody knows that
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: level of busy though, and it just bumps me out.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: I've never missed.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Out on an opportunity for something like this.
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: Should have been here. Why is this thing at Arrowhead ridiculous?
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: Well, I think we foiled that. We messed it up.
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: We didn't do it properly. Arrowhead. The recent is in
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Kansas City. You have to understand the history of soccer
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: in this country. Kansas City was once the epicenter of
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: American soccer. Some of the great soccer players. When the
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: US team of I think it was nineteen fifty or
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: fifty one came very close to the World couple, a
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: lot of those players were from that area. Saint Louis,
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: Kansas City and Lamar Hunt. Lamar Hunt started the Kansas
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: City with former owner. He is a huge soccer was
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: a huge soccer connoisseur. That's why Kansas City.
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah whatever should have been here. Yeah, just real quick.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: I once again watched a good portion of the Rockies
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: last night, and I was waiting, especially when they had
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: a lead late in that game, to see how the
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: bullpen was going to react. And thank god that they
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: came out through strikes, got outs and they beat Chicago
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: five to two. TJ Runfield with a really timely homer
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: two outs, two to one, three run homer put him
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: in a lead.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: Didn't look back after that.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: It feels good to beat a team like Chicago in Chicago.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say something though that is going to be
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: baseball blasphemous. Enough with the ivy justin, I watched like
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: three balls one hop into the ivy and guys just
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: threw their hands up and it would have stopped the
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: run from scoring. And I'm like, this feels cheap, okay,
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: and get the ball, pick it up and throw it in.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: Rockies did the same thing, by the way, not even
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: saying they didn't.
• 42:52
  Speaker 3: But enough with the IVY.
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but that iconic shot of Cole Carrig in the
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: IVY making that catch is pretty damn cool.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: Huge play too, because that was late in that game
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: where you're up three, there's a guy on he makes
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: that catch. Carrig, by the way, if you guys haven't,
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: that was I believe his eighth game in the MLB,
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: eighth Cole Carrig has a triple three homers. He stole
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: a base last night late in the game. He's got
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: an outfield assists, made that catch at the wall. He's
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: played both outfield and infield since then, a little bit
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: of short the other night. He has been incredible. But
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: here's I'm not gonna say it's a problem. It's a
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: good problem to have. So col Carig looks every bit
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: like a real big time player. I don't know if
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: you guys have seen Charlie Condon what he's doing, your
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: first round pick from last year in Triple A. He
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: is mashing the baseball. Zach Veen is still in Triple A.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: He's playing great. Mickey Moniac who's outright now, is all
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: star caliber. You also have Jake mccarthur's playing well this year.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: Troy Johnston who's hitting three sixteen, And then you have

• 44:21
  Speaker 3: saying is not wrong. I don't know, bro. Let's have

• 44:47
  Speaker 4: you're going to That's what I'm saying.
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: I'm saying if this, if this guy continues on this stretch,
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: though he looks like a real BINDERSTI layer.
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: But I guess what I'm saying is, before you start
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: trading other players, let's see if this is a Fluke
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: be just a call up push or if this is
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: really what he is, well.
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: It's more of a referendum. Like Brenton Doyle outside of

• 45:29
  Speaker 2: That guy he went down to an account twice I
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: think last night, and he just doesn't strike out.
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: He puts the bat on the ball.

• 45:42
  Speaker 4: give you full credit for that. Said you had the

  Speaker 4: eye for him. He said, watch out for this guy.
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: Well he does this.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: He chokes up on the bat with two strikes and
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: it's almost he doesn't slow down his swing. It's the
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: wrong way to put it, but he's very deliberate and
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: like I'm going to put this.
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: Almost right nuts before Moser freaks out.
• 46:00

• 46:31
  Speaker 3: just fighting everything off until he finally forced the pitcher
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: to give him something he could control with the bat.
