Speaker 2 (03:23):
There's that. Also, there's two years left on the GM
and the coach.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
Yes, so now yeah, and it's a tough division.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
It all lined up perfectly. I am shocked by that
return stry to derail the whole show.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Yeah, I mean why we were definitely going to bring
it up. Second segment because I didn't want to start
off with all this pompous packers nonsense.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
I hate it. I hate it.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
It makes me absolutely sick.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
And you guys, your whole fan base is delusion finally
paid off for once.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
I say, you guys say, I see every free agent
that's ever.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
Got it basically this basically worst case scenario. Two point oh.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
I mean you guys have been here pretty much every week, right, yeah, yeah,
well three point zero.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
That was the very short lived I think we live
a week. I think we only did the cool one
to eight thing, didn't we? Did we ever actually go.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
On the time forgot about that I think.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
As the original worst case scenario, and we immediately disbanded.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Close not even a one hit wonder, zero hits close
circus Corner's office. How did that come? The worst case.
That sounds like, you know, like the Star Wars Christmas legendary,
like that's a once because that's probably not gonna have
it again. And we have not been asked, so we

(04:59):
have we have funny, good sense.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
Feel lucky to be here, Brett blakemore Tom Andrew, but
I'm not as lucky as one guy up in Duluth
who won one hundred k on the lottery earlier this
week and the nationwide power ball it's up to over
a billion.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
I gotta put my pink yip like doctor.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
For one billion dollars. I mean, this is like the
age old question. Everybody's asked it. Everybody's answered do you
want do you want a quiet million? Or allowed two
hundred and twenty million?

Speaker 1 (05:32):
People got to say, well, after taxes, it is okay, Yeah,
I'll take the four hundred million. Brother, It's okay. I'll
let the taxes do what they what they gotta do.
Are you a are you guys? Would you guys splurge
on anything?

Speaker 2 (05:43):
The Twins because.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
We're putting a Bayrol This is gonna be a Bible
baseball team.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
We're taking the central by the Twins. Tom just showing
up to the target field without even care.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, you know it's like it's out, get out right
out everybody out the squad.

Speaker 4 (06:05):
I got a billion on it.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
I gotta do. That's like one Carlos Pere, isn't it.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Yeah, after taxes, could get half of one Sodo, half
the season of one Soto Brett blakemore.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
What are you gonna you see? You seem like, you know,
you're a low key guy. You don't seem like you're
gonna splurg. You're not gonna get the twenty inch Rims
and the then pop in and ramped gold grill, big
old chain that says double b on it.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
Yeah, that's that's not me. I wouldn't go full Marnie
and say I'd rather have a quiet one million than the.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
One preposterous statement of the same.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
I think it won the tournament.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
It absolutely should so.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
I think I remember in the acceptance speech she was like,
I still believe it. Which are the best acceptance because
that's like it is certifiably propably. But no, I'm not
a flashy Rims guy. I'd get a nice house somewhere
and called it.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
Like a mansion. What's a nice house? You know you're
not gonna splurge on anything.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
You're not gonna by wild season tickets or something.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Well that I mean that that goes without saying, of
course new skates, thankful? Yeah what U deuce?

Speaker 3 (07:11):
Commons Juice call right over there, baby, I'll hall at
you in a second.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Due he's gonna scoop the loop. No, I mean, I
mean like that type of stuff. Maybe some new clubs
as well, even though I just got new clubs. But hey,
get fitted. You can get fitted again.

Speaker 5 (07:30):
So you know, you'd spend like one hundred and thirty
five thousand of it and then the rest would just
go in the bank accounts.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
I think the lame.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
So I'm gonna travel the world. You're not gonna get
a little a little private jet.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
You know. Where are you going?

Speaker 4 (07:44):
First place you're going with the lottery money?

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Oh London, London? See my see my club? Yeah, see
my soccer team. Places in the world. I love it there.
I wouldn't live there, but I love it. I love going.

Speaker 4 (07:55):
What do you eat over there?

Speaker 2 (07:57):
It's it's a struggle. Probably did I tell you the
pizza story in London? So so this is my second
time over there, and uh sick brag. Oh good for me.
And thank God for that text refund. Let me tell

(08:17):
you so January first, it's going up exactly. So I
go to this mom I'm like, I'm gonna take a
chance because usually I go chain just just to be safe, right,
because how pig even either?

Speaker 1 (08:30):
I am so crazy.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
So I went to this mom and pop place and
then I get in there and it is immediately obvious
that they English is not their first language and they
don't know what I'm saying at all. In London. I'm like,
all right, this could be trouble. Like so I'm like,
I just want just to cheese pizza, like the most
plain bread, sauce cheese pizza you can have had nothing else.

(08:55):
And they're like, oh, yeah, yeah, we got you. I
have the picture on my phone. I'll to show you.
It was the most vile thing I've ever seen. There
were clumps of blue cheese on it.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
I could throw up right now talking about it. There's
clumps of other I didn't even know what it was,
just mystery food, mystery item.

Speaker 4 (09:16):
Question on the question mark.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
So I immediately.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
No, yeah, flying hi.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
So instead of being you know, rude and saying this
isn't what I asked for, because I'm from the Midwest.
I said, hey, can I get this like a box
to go? Walk out with it? First dumpster? What throza?
Whole pizza bro I didn't even try it all right
now it looked hideous, but off.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
London you can just get Italian.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
It was late at night and I didn't want to
go anywhere, and so I ended up support a local business.
I ended up having.

Speaker 4 (09:54):
As the pictures like.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
The radio audience.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Yeah, well, we'll describe it.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
There's detail about it. Was honestly like about this pizza
so bad?

Speaker 4 (10:06):
I feel like the movies go to like a convenience
store like that is well?

Speaker 2 (10:09):
I I did well. Eventually what happened is fish. You
don't like fish and chips? Little fish and chips, mate, No,
that's that's not for. What eventually did is I got Dominoes,
but like a little everywhere, A little guy on like
a moped came to the AIRBND.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
It just delivered it quick.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
You can't call this guy.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
I don't know where I was going with that. If
I deleted this picture, I'm gonna be devastated.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Oh yeah, we all are. This is totally worth it.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Anyways, you guys talk from Andrew, what.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
Would you spend your lottery winnings on? You see, you
also seem kind of like a low brow guy. You know,
a little low key guy should say I, you know,
like you're not gonna You're not gonna go out.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
You said you might have a little some some takeing.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Some sweet j's or something.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
I think what I would do with the popularity of
the w right now, bring a team to Denvery, not
by a Denver w n B A team, and then
whatever is left over pay Cheryl Reeve to come to Denver.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
I might I might pay more to get Sheryl.

Speaker 5 (11:13):
To Denver than the w n B A team, But
uh yeah, that would be Oh gosh.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
We have a foot I'm gonna I'm gonna pay off
the teas and absolutely you have anyone of them want
to see it, you can.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
They're dying.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
But tell me, does that look good to you? Man?

Speaker 1 (11:27):

know what I mean. It's look at bubbling up. So
it's bubbling up. Yeah, it just gots clustered. It does,
got a lot of random bubbles. But look see where
those are the best us. That's that's a and I
don't want to long man, don't. Yeah, I love it.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
I could literally throw right now. I can feel it coming.

Speaker 5 (11:46):
So I can call back from a couple of weeks ago.
But remember teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
That is true.

Speaker 5 (11:52):
Remember the the guy that is the little like alien
dude inside of the bigger guy.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Yeah, yeah, it has that.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Kind of does it kind of does it looks like

Just grossness all around, packers, gross pizza like Pry.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Jones, Harry Jones, Jerry Jones, Erry patric Jones.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
We're live here at the state Fair. You never know
who you're gonna run into at the Minnesota State Fair.
I saw Justin Jefferson was here, I believe yesterday, and
I saw people tripping saying like, oh, JJ's not saying
hi to the fans. But he's here with this family. Okay,
did you say that sentence over again. He's here with
his family.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Leave him to bleep along.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
He doesn't owe anybody anything. He doesn't have to sign
anybody's autographs. You can come on the show, he could
come on the the fan booth.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
Absolutely, look at what you brought. We we have sleepers everywhere.

Speaker 4 (13:23):
Yeah, no, I completely agree.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
I've seen Jets at a Wolves game and he has
like his he has like his posse with him and
his bodyguards and stuff. So you can definitely tell like
he's not you know, he's you don't want to bother.
He wants to enjoy the great Minnesota get together like
everybody else.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
He wants to stand in line for two hours for
the Amish don It's just like everybody else.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Now, this is actually perfect to bring up wrestling. Did
you see the video of Rhea Ripley in France earlier today.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
I did not.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
He got like mob outside of her car like an
uber and literally like surrounded by people. They like swarmed her.
And I don't know if it's it's just like your
I feel like we're too nice to do that. But
they did not give a bleep whatsoever. They just completely
It was like uncomfortable to watch.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Similar to how it is when me and you walk
into the fair.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Scenario is here. I mean the stands are just overflowing
with people. It's hard to find a see hundreds hundreds
of people in the stand.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
I just thought that was weird.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
I just couldn't believe people were really taking that stance
to like, oh, look at JJ ignoring the fans.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
It's like, dude, he does so much for all.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
The vikings are like the easiest way in the league.
They do a lot for the fans.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
They don't have to dedicate twenty four to seven their entirety,
their entirety of their existence to pleasing random people.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
At the Minnesota State there.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
I love just ripping the vikings to get people going, no,
it's like hang on, hang on, it's like nine months out,
you're shaking hand.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
It's like no, no, no, It's like ninety bit fighting everybody.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
There are three people that I won't say a bad
word about. JJ koc and JJ McCarthy. I think I
think the world of them. I think they're really good people.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
And this is great comes to all the games. Yeah,
I like guys on the roster are terrible. That's what
you're saying.

Speaker 5 (15:08):
Mitella's got a red card at a Wolve's game last night.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
Kick him out. That's right, being.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Unruly, Probably right, it was beneficient.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
I'd have been unruly if I was at that Nelly
show last night. That looked like a lot of fun
man so loud.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
I wasn't not.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
I wasn't there. I don't know why. I just wasn't.
I didn't.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
I didn't rush to go get tickets.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
But they said every single ticket sold out for the
for the Nelly so Nelly, Jaw Rule and the Ying
Yang Twins. I mean that sounds like a pretty damn
good concert to me. Everybody says it's great.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
Did they do the Whisper song?

Speaker 1 (15:40):
They have to?

Speaker 4 (15:41):
I mean, how many times they got they gotta have?

Speaker 2 (15:45):
They kind of have to.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
Nelly has an infinite amount of bangers, though he can't
fit all of his bangers into one set.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
I feel like Nelly is in the category of like
like I saw Green Day at target Field and I
like Green Day, but I was like, oh, yeah, I
know this song. Oh yeah, I know the song, but
I don't. I couldn't like recall like seventeen Green Day songs,
but I all know him, you know, like once they
start playing. I feel like I'd be the same way
about Nelly. I don't think I could name one off
the top of my head, but you could play a bunch.
I'd be like, oh, yeah, I know air Force, not

(16:11):
even one air Force hot in here. Yeah, I know
that song.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
I'll never forget it.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
A girl in fifth grade talent show did Pimp Juice
for the talent show?

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Yeah, Nelly. You could tell they didn't like pre approved.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
Because the announce their person It is like, and uh, now,
Susan Carpenter with Pimp Pimp Juice.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
I love how you just said her actual I just
made up.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
But then she literally went up there and just you
made up for.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
I don't know if you guys ever heard that song,
but there's a sweet solo at the beginning. There's a
sweet singing solo at the beginning.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
All in.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Was she she was all in.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
She could have started Nelly cover band and just did
Pimp Juice for three hours straight.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
I'm there every single were there any dance a company
or is just it was literally just pure your soul,
your soul, no dance move, no carreo.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
Yeah, just in front of everyone, eyes closed, like she
wrote it, you know, like like it was lose yourself.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
It was like an eight mile moment, like she was like.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
That, why we're in the moment.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Who knows. Maybe she's a record executive. And that's how
Taylor Swift got fit.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
That's how Taylor Swift was discovered at the Oak Elementary.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
Later in games, that's crazy, little little known part of
her story people don't dive into.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
It is where she gets her start. Brett Blake Moore,
your hand was previously up.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
Well I've changed my mind because you said elementary.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Yeah, so yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the smart That is
a smart move.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
I thought you said high school at first, which is
still worse. So fask you if you would have at
that time, but yeah.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Probably, yeah, that's probably probably. Probably we all assumed that
you were gonna have hand up.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
I wanted to do and then I realized it wasn't good,
So let's just now. Yeah, le let's let's move on.
Brett Blake Moore, We'll talk football. Yeah, let's talk some football.

about the stupid.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
Ass the trade heard around the world, much to Minnesotan's dismay.

Speaker 3 (18:21):
Micah Parsons is a packer, and I'm sure Brent will
handle this with class and no hyperbole or delusion, as
packers fans are prone to do.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
More waste. Morse case scenario.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
Coming up, dun Welcome back to the worst case scenario.

the State Fair lovers out there. It is the penultimate
day of the fair.

All cookies an alligator on a stake will be tucked
away until next summer.

Speaker 1 (19:20):

Like Green Bay Packers significantly bolstered their chances of winning
the Super Bowl Laer this week when they acquired Cowboys
pass rusher Michael parsonso.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
Two first round picks twenty twenty six and twenty twenty seven.
As if the NFC North wasn't already a war zone,
the Packers acquired the NFL equivalent of the nuclear.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Yeah, and they didn't give up anything for him. Like
I love Kenny Clark, but he's on his third contract,
and the Packers when they're on their third contract, they
are already looking to replace them.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
Have like thirty year old players.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
They don't, No, they don't do that. So in the
fact that you get him in his prime, And thank
god for Jerry Jones because his delusion really made this happen.
The first person ever to say that, Yeah, they literally
because it benefits me his delue. Did you hear his presser?
He literally goes he was convinced that Micah Parsons was
the only reason they couldn't stop the run. And it's

(21:22):
as if the edge rusher is number one priority is
to be the only guy to stop the run.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
That has to be working.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
It's just happened in Dallas, right because Luca was.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
Exactly so, so Dallas fans hold on to pageers dearly.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Page. I'll think about it might be the next one links.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Let's go turn up.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
Just don't favorite team, don't give up m v P
and got exactly so, Yeah, bring her home? Why not?
We already feeling home. Why not We'll get out in
a little bit. I mean this is game changing, Yeah,
it really is.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
And if the Trackers are already were touted as like
a top ten defense, right, a top five top five?

Speaker 2 (22:07):
Yeah, and the best part about it is is that
it improves, Like the cornerback room. Isn't great that you
lose jyr Alexander, But guess what they're not gonna have
to cover for as long? Well that's the Vikings.

Speaker 4 (22:16):
The Vikings are trying to do the same exactly.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
I just I think it's more like Lucas man Ness
or whatever and like quite a wild Like I'm trying
to think these guys who really should break out for
the Packers.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
They may because you have the double team on Parsons,
so it may not be Sean Gary's gonna be one
on one whole season.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
So I think it's not as much his production as
much as like, how do you scheme for that? Right?
You think McCarthy going to the line, he literally has
to call protections. He's gonna have to figure out, like, well, Parsons,
these two guys here do you have to take like
a tight end?

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Right, like an Oliver or something like that happen on
the back. Can't read you a stat here, This is
this is real sports radio stuff. Here. Micah Parsons as
a mugged up blitzing linebacker. So that's right. I know
over the center right has a ninety nine point nine
Pro football focused great, not a typhoon. Ninety nine point nine.
The next player is ninety two point one.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
That's insane, man.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
That next player is Packers linebacker Edrin Cooper on sweet
So I'm just saying another guy who's like, oh, he's
a stunt. So I can feel like the delusion just
starting to like run. You could see it, see it
there popping out of your head.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
Well, think of where you were, like Joe Berry, right,
you have all this talent on the de and he
literally put those guys out in outer space.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
He literally took the corners and like put them twenty
feet back. There's a picture of Zadarius Smith lined up
one on one with just yeah, yes, what are we doing? Yeah?
That oh my god.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
I'm well. I mean they've always had talent, that's the
thing for like the Vikings, Bears, Lions, like the Packers
have always had talent. Finally, bringing halfway right was coaching
I think Boston College.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Yeah, I'm gonna make sure we're still connected to the
Okay we are, and I thought you might get kicked off.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
Yeah, yeah, I want to kick us off, take us
off the air. Why would the Vikings invest so much
in the trenches, right? Why were they complaining so much
about in the middle of offensive line because of teams
like the Packers and because of what they could dorupt
and that way, if you if you create penetration through
the middle, you can't beat anyone. Donald looked bad in
those last year. Anyone would have trouble with that. That's
why you go get a Parsons. You just it's center gravity, right,

(24:07):
and it's gonna be really really hard to defend against
the tam.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
Well and I think I said it last week, but
like that last game against the Vikings in the US Bank,
Sam Donald could have had a ten minute tea party
and then some in the pocket. They could not read
them with four at all. They had to bring more.
And then that means the JJ is going to be
more open, Aison's going to be more open, and Sam
Donald diced us up. That was an awful game to
be at. Hopefully that is not the case this year,

(24:32):
especially with probably the best, if probably at least second best,
if not the best pass rusher in football.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
I mean, that was the Philly thing, right, Philly had
four guys who could create penetration in the backfield they
were running. So Vic Fangio is obviously the coach right
in terms of this scheme, Donna Tell was like the
knockoff brand, right, that didn't work here, but he didn't
work but either Yeah, yeah, I was gonna say that scheme.
I think more people are going like the floor is
rout of, like send guys at the quarterback right, make
them think really quick, process really quick. But that defense

(25:01):
works and it will work for the Packers if you
can get that front four right generating pressure and then
everyone's looking at the quarterback and that's what they didn't have,
and that's any any quarterback.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
And Patrick Mahomes had trouble with that in the Super Bowl.
Well yeah, the Patrick Mahomes' worst performances in the Super
Bowl is when he had to run for his life.
I remember against the Todd Bowles and the Bucks. Yeah,
and Tom Brady. He was running for his life every
single play and he and he couldn't do anything and
the Bucks ended up winning and Tom Brady gets another ring.
So I'm I'm very.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
Only risk And I was saying this with our Packer group,
is that it is a tough division and there's just
gonna be randomness, like someone has to finish third, someone
has to finish fourth. Like I think you're fighting if
you're the second team to get ten wins and into
the playoffs and feel like you are still.

Speaker 4 (25:42):
Superior to the competition in the AFC.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
If the Packers don't make the playoffs, if they fall
into that like six seven ranges, like all of a sudden,
that first round pick or maybe the second one become
more bad.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
That's what I actually was gonna ask spin Zone here,
maybe maybe getting Michael Parsons is a curse that you
don't know. It's pressure, so much pressure and Packers nason
to win it all this year? Do you feel do
you feel like it's it's it's super Bowl or bust
for the package?

Speaker 2 (26:10):
I think if we don't come away with a ring
in the next well, I do on the team's true.
That's that's mostly tongue in Chake. Just don't don't comment
if they don't win one in the next three years,
because that's when the cap hit starts to hurt. The
cap is actually not that bad if you look at

(26:31):
the contract for the first three years, it's the last
two that they might as well do some restructuring. Well
they do void years or they push that. So this
window is three years long, twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven.
They have to get at least one. Wow, that is
here's the thing. I mean.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
My question for the package would be like Jordan Love, like,
how much do you believe in him as like a
championship caliber quarterback.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
I'm the I may be the biggest Jordan Love defender
on the planet. I am delusional in love. And then
his parents, no, literally that should be his pr person.
I think I like to love more than car though,
like Johnny.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
They killed they killed the Cowboys in that game and
then turn around to take the best player yet.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
I know, but I think.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
And then the wide receiver corp right, for a while,
I think it was, well, you don't you don't need
a wide receiver one in Green Bay because you just
have all these guys and there was drop problems, there
was you know, wix read like all these guys who
they saw as Yeah, you don't need to mount to Adams,
you have numbers. I guess my question is is that
receiver core good enough? Right? Even if Lot playing at
a high level to win in this division, to win

(27:36):
in the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (27:37):
That's the million dollar question, right. And I still like
Josh Jacobs and he can handle a lot of that.
I've gotten an online argument. You're getting shocked to hear
this you and yeah, I know online arguments, and uh,
I'm pretty sure it was a Vikings profile picture. And
he goes, Josh Jacobs is ancient. You guys are screwing
like he's twenty seven. He's in the heart of his prime.

(27:57):
What are you guys talking about? So I like that,
But you know, I think Matthew Golden is really good.
I think he's been the talk of training camp. Jayden
Reid hurt, his foot is hurt, so he may not
play at all Week one. Christian Watson on the pup,
still recovering from ACL So Golden's gonna have to be
the guy. And we still have Tucker Craft and musk
Grave as tight ends who I like both of them,

(28:19):
so I think they'll be able to tread water. But
I just I think the world of Jordan Love, I
really do. He makes mistakes. It's his third year starting.
You should watch go back and watch Aaron Rodgers first
two years as starter. It's not a pretty picture. I
think they won five games his first year. Jordan Love
has won nine and eleven games in his first two seasons.
So yeah, so yeah, I'm very I'm very happy. Delusional.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah yeah, I was gonna say the same thing with
McCarthy Herey, if you have a good defense, you're not
chasing games, right, have the weapons round? The difference is,
I just think you have better weapons here in Minnesota obviously, McCarthy, big, big,
big question, But you don't know, and it's whether like elevator,
you know, like Love can elevate the receiving cores right
or if it.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
Holds him back. And I think that's gonna be the huge,
huge questions for the Packers. Well, the hope is that
they have so many receivers that if one has the
case of the drops or the butterfingers, you can just
sub in another one. You know, if because you had
you drafted too, you drafted Golden and save on and
you've got Reed Dobbs, Watson, Wicks Heath. I mean, you
could just play roulette who's catching the ball today? And

(29:22):
if you're not, then we're gonna bring in the next
guy to maybe catch them.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
The Bikings are very dependent on Justin Jefferson's staying healthy
right as coming back staying health.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
And I am too because I have him in several
leaks that I like.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
I mean, this is why they go get theling.

Speaker 1 (29:34):
Right.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
You just looked at like Lucky Jackson.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
You look at kind of the depth down there, right,
Naylor can't catch has obviously speed. It's why you have
to go get like a feeling. And I do with
the receiving corps. Actually do believe you want that star talent.
I think Devantae Adam made such a difference obviously in
Green Bay, right, just having you go to target and
now you have Justin Jefferson for the explosives and then
Hockinson you know thelan who will get open. I think

(29:56):
that will help you on quarterbacks. That's to me. It's
a big question too. Different situations obviously, but like where
is kind of the pinch point where something has to happen.
Jordan Love probably elevate the receiving corps here. JJ McCarthy
meet the standard that victs have for himself and.

Speaker 4 (30:10):
That's the biggest move in the NFC North this week.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Not Michael Parsons, Adam feeling the fan has here, he's
from there. Just got just my source just sex to me,
anonymous source. Adam Feeling is indeed from Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
Because think about it, you could walk up to them feeling.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
You could.

Speaker 4 (30:37):
You probably could. You probably could.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
But after a lot of speculation, Adam Feeling back in Minnesota,
and regardless of how people feel about it on the field,
it's hard not to be happy for the family. Obviously,
the kids, you see the video of his own they're
so they're so excited to go back to Minnesota.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
His wife is super excited. Hopefully she nap gets her
way on Minneapolis well, but the other otherwise, everybody, it's
it's a feel good.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
To have Adam feel in here. And then obviously it
fits well with the on the field product as well.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
Right, Yeah, Like I think with Bryce Young, he was
like a safety blanket, right. I don't think he can cut,
He's not as quick, but he can. He's got catch radius.
They'll like Okinna will scheme.

Speaker 3 (31:12):
Him open, which good thing. The Viking's got him when
he did, because the Panthers just had a receiver.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
That's right, that's right, And I think I mean the Panthers,
I think believe they had like young receivers for Bryce Young.
I mean, he is the franchise guy that has to
work out for Carolina. But I think that experience there
where he was the number one guy back back to
like a thousand yard receiver, will help him here where
he is a receiver too obviously start that's where the
need was, but will be a perfectly functional part of
the offense as a receiver three right, So I think

(31:37):
he will help McCarthy a ton. And obviously you have
to love it. I think it's Cora's four year old
daughter jumping up and down. He describes her as like
a spit fire, like it was such a wonderful like
Minnesota moment coming back home. And he truly did not know,
because I think Schefter was saying twenty four hours before
this probably is gonna happen. They're working through compensation. They
did probably pay a little bit, feeling takes the pay cut.
He's back here. I think he'll have a world this season.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
I would add him Adam Deeling to the people. I
won't say a bad word about I really like him
as a guy. I think he's a good football player.
I think it's a great move for the Vikings happy
he's home. Don't from a panther's perspective, I have no
idea why they did this trip. But the panthers takes
no sign.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
But that's the David Tepper, that's their like owner. He's
like he's like Jerry Jones flight or whatever you like.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
No one knows who he is.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
What is he doing through like ink or something into
the crowd once, No one knows why.

Speaker 4 (32:22):
He's just or like o im pen, open pen or
something like that.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
But like he he went into a restaurant once because
someone was complaining about the panthers, like this is no petty.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
This guy goes in and goes like you have.

Speaker 4 (32:34):
To take down that time and you're like, what do
you the panthers suck.

Speaker 5 (32:36):
You can say whatever you want, Like what you're saying
is feeling. Might have been like I don't want to
be here, and he was like, don't let or hit you.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
I think, I mean, I don't know what he'd say
about the ownership. I think he loved like the idea
of he's helping elevate pricely song. He's the number one receiver,
Like I think he probably like the situation there. He
like the people around him. Ultimately, he needs to win
now how he believes he can play into like these
forty you're thirty five, you hit a wall, like, it's
not a gradual drop.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
It is the other time is undefeated.

Speaker 4 (33:04):
That's right and so and so.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Like if you're feeling you're in a win now situation,
I think it's perfect for the Vikings create urgency with
some of these veterans, Harrison Smith, these other guys, because
while there's a young core, some of these pivotal players.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Are older players.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
I'm just happy to hear that there's a Jerry Jones
junior lurking, lurking.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
In the shadows.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
We still the chaos continues, even after Jerry bites the dust,
which could be any day.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
We've got a young quarterback and we want to win.
You know what we should do, trade away our number one.
Like I just I can't wrap my head around that.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
I'm just I'm just happy that the Cowboys chaos is continuing,
and this chaos will continue right here on Worst Case
Scenario Live from the Minnesota State Fair.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
Yes there, recte you dog.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
We'll stick with the NFL and give some season predictions.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Coming around the corner.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
We have made it through the sports abyss people.

Speaker 4 (34:37):
The dog days of.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
Summer are over.

Speaker 4 (34:41):
And football is back.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
We got college football back yesterday, which means the NFL
is right around the corner.

Speaker 1 (34:49):
And being that worst case scenario, we'll be off the
air once the season starts. We gotta make all of
our predictions, all of them, Brett Blake Moore. Right now,
we're gonna channel our miss Cleo and try and see
everything in our crystal ball that's gonna happen in the
NFL this year. And speaking of seeing things clearly, Brett Blakemore,
it's like you, I want to start because you know,

(35:11):
I can't be the only one.

Speaker 3 (35:12):
I think we all like to think that we're more
elite football minds than we truly really are, that we
see it how it's really how the game's really going,
you know, even Adam Schefter, I mean, they don't know,
they don't know.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
The game like I know the game.

Speaker 3 (35:27):
So I'm always gonna think that I'm right, that I
always got the leg up on people.

Speaker 4 (35:30):
So I'm curious, Brett Blake Moore.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
I don't want to go through every single division, every
single conference, who's the winner.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Blah blah blah, blah blah, NFC. Let's start right there. Okay,
right now, I'm.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
Having some trouble with the local speaker, So why don't
you guys talk for a little bit. Oh okay, Well
I'll pass it over to Tom.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
Yeah, Tom, I'm curious, who is a team this year?
Let's start in the NFC home of the Vikings.

Speaker 3 (35:52):
Who's a team this year that you think that is
not on people's radar that is going to surprise some people.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Yeah, that's a really really good question because I was
trying to think of, like the NFC South sucks, and
I could one of those teams.

Speaker 4 (36:01):
Just right out.

Speaker 2 (36:02):
I do.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
Actually, speaking of the Panthers last segment, I don't think
it's inconceivable that the Panthers could go worse to first,
But I think Tampa Bay is kind of like the
of that division right now.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
I think how funny that is, Like Cleveland could have
just kept Baker maybe also give Tampa Bay this like
they actually built a good team and just needed Tom
Brady and they've kind of maintained it.

Speaker 4 (36:23):
I guess they had.

Speaker 3 (36:24):
They were completely irrelevant before Tom Brady got there, and
now they've they've managed to mate I think a lot
of people thought, rightfully, so he's forty something, it's just
a rental. You know, they're trying to cash in and
get a championship. They did, but they've still maintained that
kind of status quo of now this is a successful branch.

Speaker 4 (36:40):
And they were No one's going to want to hear this.
So they were the losingest.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
Franchise in sports past the Timberwolves, and obviously the Timberwolves
may have decided from there. But yeah, yeah, but I
think at the time when they got Tom Brady, right,
it was kind of painful to see that graphic and
be like, no, but.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
Yeah, I mean I like that.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
I think the teams like that who probably like go
out in the first round, get upset in the first round,
but can rack up numbers because you can win within
a you know, an easy division. I mean, I guess
if the Panthers had some health with the receiving core,
if the defense is good enough, Bryce Young elevates to
being you know, a star star quarterback. Like that's the
kind of player who would do that. Otherwise it's just
hard if you look like East and West, like what's

(37:22):
the case for like the Giants, right or whatever? No,
I mean, I think that'll be dominated by Philadelphia out west.
I feel like people, especially in the Kingsbury era, were like, no,
you know, the Cardinals have something going on. This is
a genius offense Kyler Murray, and like, I just have
never believed in Murray.

Speaker 4 (37:36):
I did not believe in Cliff Kingsbury.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
No.

Speaker 1 (37:38):
I just sounds like, isn't It's November is right around
the corner. There's usually a new call of duty around that. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it might be good until yes, yes, yes, that's right,
Black Ops seven. I think, yeah, I think I think
you'd have some trouble with that, But yeah, I think so.
I mean, I just don't know what team would surprise
you there. I think it's gonna be the Rams. I
think it's gonna be the Niners, right if they're wealthy
and so. I just think those surprise teams are a
little bit kind of smoking mirrors, and they tend to

(38:00):
be someone praying on a bad division. You have all
these games against the you know teams.

Speaker 4 (38:04):
They should win. I don't know if it's the Panthers necessarily.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
The other thing I guess would be there's be some
surprise if like Tampa SERTs himself. That's dominant, right, not
like surprisingly good, but like the top tier in the Yeah,
in the NFC.

Speaker 2 (38:15):
So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
I mean it's part of football, like you always have
the surprise. It's hard to see it coming. But it
just feels more defined this year with how good like
the NFC North is and with kind of we know
who the good teams are in the other divisions.

Speaker 4 (38:25):
Yeah, I couldn't.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
I couldn't agree more. I think the team that you
mentioned them just a little bit briefly there, I'm going
not surprised in a good way, but surprise in a
bad way. I think the forty nine ers y, Yeah, huge,
multiple steps backwards.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
I think that the NFC West in general is a
super winnable division.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
I think the Rams are. They have a lot of flaws.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
They're a good to they're a solid team, solid offense,
but they still have a lot of flaws. And we
don't know what we're gonna get with the Cardinals obviously,
But I think the forty nine ers. I think that
brock party paycheck, Yeah, I think it.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
Was just a little. It was just a little and
you have to do it right kind of teams. Yeah,
it always you have to do it.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
He earned it one hundred percent. But that's the way
the NFL works these days.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
But it's at the same time, it's like they kind
of had to gut the rest of the team and
that was the huge Yeah, that was the reason they
were so successful over the last decade plus. Is the
team aspect of the sport, both sides of the ball.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
That's always true is that you have to have the
Russell Wilson dynamic, right, He cheap and surprising, and you
build the defense legion of boom around him, and then
he has to take over once he's paid all that money.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
I mean, it's it's perty's gonna end.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
Again. That's a tough task there, even with their talent,
even without well they're coach. The other thing is them
and the Lions. They tend to burn their guys out.
I know they want to play smash bows football. I
know it's physical. You start to look at that injury
list and it becomes a factor, and I think that's
what tanks really really talented.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Teams like that.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
I mean I was also thinking, like Saddle, I guess
if you could ring kind of what Sam Darnold had.

Speaker 4 (39:44):
I think that's a one year one or not.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
Because he is talented like throwing down the field, he
has touch and that's why he dominated every level until
he got to the NFL. And part of that was
the Jets, part of the ring, right, But I think
the ways O'Connell knew that and at some point he realized,
like it's really hard to protect that long and it
is the best teams know how to defend it as
the deep ball, right. But I think that they're probably
pretty well coached. Like, you know, if that defense is

(40:05):
any good and you know Darnald again, if you can
tap into that and Kevin o'connaugh, I guess you could
be a sleeper team there.

Speaker 3 (40:11):
But so a lot of people, a lot of people
are saying that Seattle's defense is back, like it's gonna
be picked in some preseason things. Does the best defense
in the nf That could be the best defense in
the NFL. I'm not an elite Seahawks mind, but that
was kind of surprising to me.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
Yeah, And that's I mean, I think that's what you
should do with uncertain quarterback situations. I mean, you know,
it's no different than here with the Vikings with Flores
just raises the level right or everybody, and it makes
McCarthy's the same thing.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Like Donald.

Speaker 1 (40:34):
I don't think we'll peat those numbers that he had
last year, but if he can look like a competent quarterback, right,
as long as the defense is good there you could start.

Speaker 4 (40:41):
I mean, they should pray on the Cardinals.

Speaker 1 (40:43):
If the Niners have injury issues, maybe you know, take
the game at home against the Rams or whatever. So
the Rams always have the disadvantage to a Vike. I
think a lot of other fans show up there, you know,
I think of the Vikings like half there.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
I guess the Seattle shows up.

Speaker 4 (40:55):
I don't have any like real home.

Speaker 1 (40:56):
Yeah, and it's not it doesn't even look like their
home stadium and people went there last year. It'd beause
they have to share it with the Chargers whatever. So regardless,
like that is a huge fan base. That is a
team that's looking to get back. I mean, maybe them,
but I think I actually think the NFC, aside from
the North obviously, is going to look pretty you know,
predictable around them. What do you think about the AFC?

Speaker 3 (41:13):
A couple more wild cards on the AFC side, what's
the team that will surprise people, either in a good
or a bad Yeah.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
I mean I'm trying to think like that always is
top heavy, right, and you can kind of bake Chiefs Bills.

Speaker 4 (41:23):
I mean one surprise the division winners pretty much, yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
I think like the surprise may just be like Josh
Allen goes to the next level, right right, Bill start
looking like they could take out the Chiefs, And I
think that doesn't seem like that big of a deal
until you think of like where Buffalo is and come
to the suffering if ed as a fan base, I
mean almost Minnesota, Yeah, it is almost, and like you know,
I'm thinking Baltimore same way. And I believe in Lamar Jackson.
I think at some point there'll be a breakthrough there.

(41:47):
I know, you see Mahomes there and you go, how
does that happen? Andy Reid offense and it kind of
almost doesn't matter what's around him whatever, But Colson getting older,
these guys hyper motivated, top top heavy. The surprise for
me in the FC is always the Cincinnati Bengals, and
you surprising in how they manage a team, right, It's
like I get you. Just it's like very simple. It's
like you have the quarterback and the receivers. You're like,
well what else though, you know what I mean, Like

(42:07):
there's there's defense factors in here. You have to have
a line over it.

Speaker 3 (42:11):
I think it was like over fifty percent of the
money that they're paying is just within four players.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
Yeah, four three or four players. I think they like
held out so like they had to pay these guys more.
It's not a very well managed team. They forever was
super super cheap. I think they had to put up
like the pay core thing because it was just Paul
Brown State or whatever.

Speaker 2 (42:26):
Yeah, they had to pay these.

Speaker 3 (42:27):
Guys right right, Like they had to pay in far Yeah, yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (42:31):
Have to pay just to get to March.

Speaker 4 (42:33):
So that's I'm trying to think. It's just so hard
to break into that.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
Like the NFC has typically been a little more even, right,
so you could see a team kind of breaking through,
you know. I'm trying to think of someone because because
I really don't believe in like Tua right in that
offense or something like that, or I'm trying to think
in one of those Versionsburg.

Speaker 5 (42:49):
I will say this as a Raivens fan, Yeah, that's
the team I followed Pittsburgh always looks like they're not
going to be very good. H and then Mike Tomlin
and that crew turned them into a top half the defense,
top half offense.

Speaker 3 (43:01):
He deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for having Antonio Brown.

Speaker 4 (43:05):
It's all.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
And you don't know, I mean, that's the thing is
he may he can be the Alphin and the you
know Rodgers. Rogers may just hit a wall too. We
talked about that how it's like it's it's not really gradual.
It's really like you at some point you just lose it.
They I think the big thing for Pittsburgh is like
they needed pick it, you know what I mean. Out
if you can use the first round pick on a
guy they needed, like a franchise ish quarterback. I always
think that's like defensive scheme and stuff like that, really

(43:29):
well coached. I guess Pittsburgh would surprise people. It's just
it's not surprising because they're the Steelers, right, because they're
always consistently good. And I'm trying to think of just
like the most random teams in the NFL that you
don't think about because you're always bad.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Broncos could make a little noise this year, possibly without
a sophomore slump. I do think they caught some teams
by surprise.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
And that is I know people love bon Nicks and
there's always he's gonna be tethered right to McCarthy because
they're trade. I think that is they're treating bon Nicks,
which is just weird for a young ish player. Uh
like late stage Drew Brees. Right, it's like hit the
ball out early, right. But it was one thing when
Drew Brees was a franchise quarterback and and you're trying
to kind of work around someone who can go to
line of scrimmage and diagnose things immediately, thinking like Peyton

(44:08):
Manning late in his career.

Speaker 4 (44:10):
It's another thing when it's.

Speaker 1 (44:10):
Like bon Nicks, you know what I mean, like like different, yeah,
and so I I That's the thing is Denver typically
is really really good. I always think of that well
coached defense, like I'm going historically right, and why you
have these Bronco fans all over uh the US, I
just don't. I think Sean Payton's scheme stuff. I think
he's a really good coach. I could see regression just
because I think they could be eliminated or limited by

(44:33):
bon Nicks.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
In general, I do.

Speaker 1 (44:34):
I do as well.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
I'm not a bow Knicks believer.

Speaker 5 (44:38):
Yeah, aliever, Andrew.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
I'm curious.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
I didn't know you were a Ravens fan. How you
feeling about the Ravens this year?

Speaker 2 (44:48):
Yeah, I really, man.

Speaker 4 (44:50):
I obviously I love the Vikings.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
I grew up a Titans fan, but I really would
love to see Lamar Jackson breaks.

Speaker 5 (44:55):
Oh so you were on the other side of it,
because Ravens Titans. That was that was the heat of it.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
Greasy for a little bit there.

Speaker 5 (45:02):
Yeah, I was praying the Titans.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
Oh yeah, I got it. Got it got greasy there
for a second. Believe in ward like he looked good.
I think I think he could be good. I mean,
there's no this is He's got to be the least
talked about. So I have overall quarterback of all time. Well,
when you talk about teams, I'm like, I forget about
the Titans. Yeah, I forgot about Yeah.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Yeah, so I'm not.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
I'm like, I guess awards really good. I don't know
if they have enough around him. I honestly don't know
much about that roster.

Speaker 4 (45:30):
But they well, they are a football team, and.

Speaker 2 (45:33):
Like most of them are gainfully employed.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Yeah, you know what I mean, Like I just have
no context, but I guess that's the thing is like
a guy like that, it is typical that like a
Joe Burrow elevates the organization. And I think, like Ellen
so Bryce Young would have to do that in Carolina, right,
and you think of that same situation with Tennessee. I
just don't know how much I believe in that. I
understand there are quarterbacks who've done it. We have seen
that happen. I think typically you need like a chief

(45:56):
situation where again, Mahomes becomes a franchise player. You have
to remember, like he was not in a pro style
offense college. People had those questions, and I think that
was infrastructure around him. I actually feel it's the same
way with Lamar Jackson. Like people he came out and
people said, you can't run an offense with that. He's
such an unconventional quarterback.

Speaker 2 (46:11):
Like Lamar has kind of proven that he's just a
cheat code.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
Though.

Speaker 2 (46:14):
I mean that that's where.

Speaker 5 (46:15):
The Ravens are, Like if Lamar continues to ascend, which
it's he's not proven. He can pass, he can run,
he can do all of the things running offense. Run
an unscripted offense. John Harbaugh gives pretty much everybody for
you reign to to make their own decisions. I mean,
the if you're a Ravens fan, this year's going to
be a lot of fun because they just they just

(46:35):
keep adding and even their defense.

Speaker 2 (46:37):
I mean, Brett has.

Speaker 5 (46:38):
Now left the building, but Jay R Alexander is going
up there. I mean, it's gonna be fun. I think
the Ravens what always gets in their way is the
AFC North is just a bloodbath every year. I mean Cincinnati, Pittsburgh,
even Cleveland against the Ravens play really hard and usually
pretty good.

Speaker 1 (46:57):
Briefly, Yeah, they.

Speaker 5 (46:59):
Never win, but they at least play the Ravens hard.
So it's just gonna be the same thing as always
for the Ravens. As they got to stay healthy.

Speaker 1 (47:05):
That's that's improved though with Harba that it's not really assistance.
It's very funny because his brother is different. His brother
is very much like run the ball, like he has
a methodology has worked right, but like for winning. For
for John Harbor, I just think that's like he adjusted
from Joe Flacco, who is limited in his own way
but kind of a traditional quarterback to like kind of
an imaginative offense with Lamar Jackson, and I think, yeah,
that is I mean for the AFC. To me, I'll

(47:26):
almost focus more at the top, right, it is like
put you unsee the Chiefs and kind of who would
that be? Because it was and it's almost an impossible
it's almost impossible to prognosticate because we've seen the worst
iterations of this chief seem Patrick Mahomes led Chiefs team
over the last couple of years and they still made
it to the freaking Super Bowl. Yeah, it just seems
like that you literally can't bet against them. And some

(47:47):
people are saying this offseason in Chiefs Kingdom that they've
gotten even better.

Speaker 2 (47:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (47:53):
I think the old line has gotten a lot better,
a lot better, and they think they got some some
new weapons for I think with the Ravens is they
have some Super Bowl infrastructure.

Speaker 1 (48:00):
There's a proof of concept there, and I think generally
they've like drafted well, they've been well coached. There's like
kind of almost like the Vikings mentality, like do everything
else right and hope the quarterback kind.

Speaker 4 (48:08):
Of elevates and they ran over everyone last year.

Speaker 1 (48:11):
Yeah, I mean they were the most dominant team in
the NFL last season, were they not? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (48:15):
I mean it it It is always, even dating back
to like the early two thousands Ravens, It's all about health.

Speaker 2 (48:20):
I mean it always is.

Speaker 5 (48:22):
Yeah, the two thousand's, early twenty tens teams, it was always,
you know, can ray Lewis get through a season?

Speaker 2 (48:29):
Can Reid get through a season?

Speaker 3 (48:30):
Before that, it was Chris Murder somebody?

Speaker 5 (48:34):
Can Can no one commit violent crime retalities? I mean,
and now and now it's seems exactly and now it's
ken Lamar Jackson stay healthy all the way through a season.
Can Derrick Henry keep enough like tread off the tire
or keep enough tread on the tires to make it
to the playoffs right? Playing at his best? Can the
defense stay healthy? Can they just manage their schedule? Because

(48:56):
the the AFC North just sucks like it sucks being
a fan in it. Because even the years like this
model where you're looking at the Steelers and it's, oh,
Aaron Rodgers had a terrible season, Maybe this is the year.

Speaker 2 (49:07):
The Steelers always show up and win nine games.

Speaker 5 (49:09):
The Browns always play tough, Cincinnati always figures it out
by the end of the season.

Speaker 2 (49:14):
So it's just.

Speaker 3 (49:14):
Frustrating every single year. Much like the worst case scenario.
We start slow. Can we finish the season?

Speaker 1 (49:21):
We have just an hour left until no more worst
case scenario for a whole year, whole year?

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Brett Blake more, are you? Are you cris falling? Are
you hurt?

Speaker 4 (49:30):
Are you?

Speaker 1 (49:31):
Are you tearing up right now?

Speaker 2 (49:33):
I'm cris falling. It's what's happening at the air. I'm
trying my best to fix the speakers, and everyone's looking
at me like.

Speaker 1 (49:40):
There, we'll just yell, I'll yeah, I'll just.

Speaker 2 (49:43):
Go into the crowd.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
My NFL takes it. We got more NFL wwe all
types of stuff coming up. Next, worst case scenario, one
more hour to go right here on the fans.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
Yes, I.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
Welcome back to the worst case scenario live.

Speaker 7 (51:19):
At the Minnesota State Fair.

Speaker 3 (51:22):
Technical difficulties a mock Brett Blake.

Speaker 2 (51:25):
The good news is everyone listening in the car, it's
totally fine and we'll be able to hear us and
we're on the air. The bad news is everyone in
the crowd is kind of getting a little screwed right
now because the speaker stopped working. You just rude cheering

(51:45):
for us now because they can't hear us. I apologize.
I tried to fix it, but we might just have
to truck on for this hour.

Speaker 1 (51:52):
You know, Jared Wells, that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (51:55):
I called there well and he was at a loss.
So so yeah, it's this is just classic State Fair.
Nothing ever goes to plan perfectly, nothing ever just works.
We bring the crowd up to the windows. Yeah, I'm
up closer a little bit. I can't even go harass them.
If all four of us get the bleachers and pull

(52:16):
at the same time, I think we'll be able to
bring them a little bit to hear us a little bit.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
Yeah, So, Brett, Blake, Moore.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Everybody, come on. I'm happy we're on there. I'm just
happy we're on there. And to be honest, I hope
we are.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
I'm like, who knows, Chad hopes we aren't just playing
elevator music or some generic both beds from twelve to one.

Speaker 2 (52:44):
Brett, I I teased it a little bit earlier.

Speaker 3 (52:46):
We have to make all of our our year long
sports predictions today because we're not going to be back
on the air.

Speaker 2 (52:53):
That's over.

Speaker 3 (52:53):
It's over. It's over for us. We're cooked, we're done,
We're washed up. We got to make all of our
predictions right now.

Speaker 1 (52:59):
So I want you as as the elite Minnesota Wild
mind here. Hockey season is also right around the corner,
because that's the best part.

Speaker 3 (53:09):
That's one of the sneaky best parts about football being back,
as that means everything else is coming back. Correct, Well,
I mean baseball is actually gonna matter. Yeah, it means
basketball is right around the corner. Yeah, it means hockey
is right around the corner as well.

Speaker 1 (53:21):
The Minnesota whild they've been making big moves throughout the summer.
Not the biggest move that they could make that everybody's
waiting with big breath four, but they have made some
big moves.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
We were promised Christmas, fourth of July and Halloween all
at the same time once the cap penalty is right,
and then it didn't really happen. But in fairness, I
am not going to go full ripping. There wasn't a
lot of the store like that.

Speaker 1 (53:45):
That is the risk though it's still hard to project
who those free agents will be. Now there's all these dumb,
dumb teams that you can probably take advantage of usually
have to use a trade, but I think but yeah,
like that's the risk.

Speaker 2 (53:54):
And like going all out in one season too, the
free agent. Yeah, so it my honor prediction. They they've
got to prove to me that they can be more
than a first round team. And do you think they're
a playoff team. I think they're a playoff team, especially
if Carell is healthy, and that's the X factor. And
I think you need euro ofe.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
I think I said this you Wallstead, like at some
point Wallstead should take over and be like the goalie
like that the whole of us have more upside. I
think Briham to fill out the I think they'll break through.
I think this will be like the second round. I
think the question is what happening is I know that
should not be shocked.

Speaker 2 (54:26):
But wait, did that come through the speakers? But no,
it didn't continue.

Speaker 1 (54:32):
But I think I do think like now that you
don't have the cap penalties, now that you're slidifying a core,
now that you have more young players coming up and
being more productive or having more NHL time, like as
you get in the playoffs, those guys should be more comfortable, right,
And it does.

Speaker 4 (54:45):
It's always gona feel different.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
It's always more physical, there's always more stakes but I
think the teams that keep those core in the playoffs together,
those are the ones who break through. I just my
question is like, at some point, are they really better
than the best teams in the West. It does seem
like they're still a chasm that they have to you know, yeah,
what are they missing though that keeps what?

Speaker 2 (55:01):
What?

Speaker 3 (55:01):
What are they missing that could that could narrow that
that chasm?

Speaker 1 (55:05):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (55:06):
To me?

Speaker 1 (55:07):
Three centers, Like, I think I think the best teams
have three centers. So that is obviously ROSSI You're gonna
have to You're off has to be the other guy
with Eric Sinak. I mean, I think the question is
like does Boldie have another gear? Like is there how
good can he be on that second line? If can
teams just dedicate and saying we're taking crial compariraucy offsline
out right?

Speaker 2 (55:22):
Yeah, you know, I think also just.

Speaker 1 (55:26):
Yeah, and then the question is like can you fill
out the top six?

Speaker 2 (55:30):
Like are you running Marcus Johanson.

Speaker 1 (55:31):
I think he was a smart player if you look
at him, never chase the puck with you know, discipline,
cannot score and like you have to have.

Speaker 4 (55:37):
Scoring players in the top six. So I think I
think and then brillam.

Speaker 1 (55:40):
I know, like we are judging him based on a
really strong season in Denver and like this really small
sample size in the playoffs. Like, to me, he's going
to have to start to take over kind of the
Spurgeon role. Like at some point Spurgeon will hit a wall.
And I think you want to see that right away
because he does seem like a very NH already player.

Speaker 2 (55:56):
Yeah. I just to me, the the number one thing. Yeah.
We can talk penalty kill ya. We can talk face
off winning as well, which those are real problems to me.
The number one thing that's always separated the Wild from
everybody else's depth scoring. Yeah, and if one line is
not going, the whole team's not going. And look no
further than when Capriceoft got hurt. Caprice Off is out

(56:17):
and they were at that point one of the best
teams in the NHL as far as points, and now
they limped their way in got a last second goal
against I think the Ducks to barely scrape into the
playoffs because they couldn't tread water.

Speaker 1 (56:32):
With Soft is like the one star, you know what
I mean. I don't know where that second star would
come from. I do think fixing the pedal cut will
matter you chase games because like what people don't realize is.

Speaker 2 (56:41):
We've been trying to do that for years though, and
can do it just we.

Speaker 1 (56:45):
I mean, you can say this in any sport, like
referring is variance, you know what I mean, Like it
is just in any there is just bad reffing and
we focus on single incidents and how like, well this
influenced this game. It is just like you have to
remove that randomness to the capacity that you can by
having the penalty kill and that that does need to
improve a ton But you're right, I mean now they
would say, like, look at we don't have deaf scoring

(57:06):
because of the cat penalties.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
You know what I mean? But it is. But then
they went out and added Tarasenko. I know, and I
guy six years past his prime maybe more.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
The one thing is I think if they used Sarasenko, uh,
I think if they used Tara Psycho correctly because he
had a weird city.

Speaker 4 (57:19):
He was really good with the Blues.

Speaker 1 (57:20):
I think got hurt and at a dispute over how
like the Blues handled his injuries. He was the man
right of all, you were the guy and and I
think that is not who he's going to be at
thirty four, But again he could be a deaf Scory.

Speaker 2 (57:34):
Hayden Hillis is on the cover of Matt He was.

Speaker 1 (57:43):
Like, you think of like even small things like you're
off has to be a penalty killer, you know what
I mean, Like if you go sign a guy for
that much money, like he has to deliver something in
that capacity. So it is a lot of like there's
just a lot of moving parts that I don't know
will all work. And I think you don't need him
all working to get into the second round. There's probably
something cathartic about five finally getting out of the first round.
They just have to have like a lot of different

(58:03):
elements work to become one of the best teams.

Speaker 2 (58:05):
In the West. Yeah, and it's it's a tough division.
It's gonna be a tough conference. Yeah. I would just
I'd really like to see a playoff run just one time, nice,
like just win ones. I mean, the last time they
want a series, I was in high school. You know,
I just want it so olad And that's the hard thing.

Speaker 1 (58:21):
I mean, the Wolves have this out of Wolahoma City,
but at the time Chicago was just better than everybody else,
you know what I mean? And they and like that
is the hardest thing about this is your standards change.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
Right. It goes from can they be a playoff team?
Can you win the playoffs?

Speaker 1 (58:32):
To like could you unseat the Chicago Blackhawks at that
time when they were that? That's there are just gonna
be Edmonton and they're gonna be teams like that in
the in the West where the Wild have to prove
that they can beat them in a series. It's not
a single one off game when you sit and when
it matters most and whe they're scounting each other every day,
like can they win that series?

Speaker 2 (58:51):
This is how dominant the Blackhawks were at this point
in time. We still have this, Thank god, I have
it on my button bar. This is how scared we
were the Blackhawks. Every time they were mentioned on the
Common Man program a long time ago. Say there are
far away.

Speaker 3 (59:11):
This is probably the worst that Chicago sports has ever
been collectively as a whole.

Speaker 2 (59:14):
And good Risks, I say, the Cubs.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
Are the only thing that they I guess they're hoping
for Chicago the Bear, the Bears, but the Bulls are terrible.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
Max.

Speaker 5 (59:24):
I think my favorite thing during hockey segments is the
glazed look you give me every once in a while
as we both are just like what's happening.

Speaker 2 (59:32):
Like give her good burger? When he's like, I know
some of these words.

Speaker 5 (59:39):
Every time I hear hear prisoft, I'm like Caprice Son,
like do they make those?

Speaker 2 (59:45):
And then and then I look at you like Caprice Son, Yeah,
and we confirmed.

Speaker 3 (59:48):
We mentally confirmed with each other's like Yep, yep, that's
a key player.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
That is still a thing. He's good, yep, and he
is good.

Speaker 3 (59:54):
Not the fruit drink because we're hoop guys, hoop guys,
but we're trying to learn, but we are hoop guys. Andrew,
you cover the Minnesota Timberwls diligently, moving from the city
of Saint Paul over to the city of Minneapolis. What
is your prediction for the Timberwolves season this year?

Speaker 5 (01:00:10):
I think this season is going to be really good.
Everything that happened last season, I mean, getting Julius Randall,
Dante DiVincenzo into the offense, trying to figure out like
how to deal with a massive trade the friday before
training camp, none of that happens this year. Everyone's locked
in everyone's been staying in the city. I think this
team's going to start the regular season and just kind

(01:00:32):
of run rough shot.

Speaker 2 (01:00:33):
Through the league. So I have those growing pains that
no I think.

Speaker 5 (01:00:37):
I mean the other side of it too is, you know,
Jaden anton Nas have all been around the cities working
on their games as well. Rob Terrence, I think this
season is going to be they should be the two seed,
like fifty five wins minimum. Now playoffs are a different
story because they did nothing to fix the Oklahoma City problem,
which they are going to be the one seed again.

Speaker 2 (01:00:58):
I mean that's pretty hard. I'm not exactly easy.

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
But the implication too is if the Wolves are the
two seed, no one else did right, like no one
else can kind of figure yeah, exactly, and so let's
be like Oklahoma City is not going to regress.

Speaker 3 (01:01:10):
If anything, They're going to get better. Don't they have
a guy that Yovich or whatever.

Speaker 5 (01:01:14):
They they will get better pretty much every year because
they're how they're how their roster is set up is
basically they never have to re sign people. Like when
Hartenstein's gone, they have somebody behind him.

Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
Don't They quite literally have like thirteen first round picks
in the next couple of years. And that is like
the Sam Presty thing of just like stockpile assets, right. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:01:33):
I think the question is.

Speaker 1 (01:01:34):
Like the problem with the Wolves that they're in a
win now window, So it doesn't matter that at some
point Oklahoma City will price itself out, like we don't.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
We actually don't know, right.

Speaker 1 (01:01:41):
We can see like we could project in terms of
this guy goes and this guy steps in, but the
Wolves I can't think like that. The Wolves have to
think like it is right now you have Anthony Edwards.
You're putting all this money in the team, and I
think this is kind of the last like hurrah. I
guess for like that, Go Bear, Go Bear, Randall probably too, Yeah,
I imagine that Randall Angel Bear. It's kind of like
a you kind of have to not a rebuild, but

(01:02:01):
you have to reshape the team.

Speaker 2 (01:02:03):
It'll be kind of a pivot if this season.

Speaker 1 (01:02:06):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:02:06):
What's interesting though, is like everyone had the same problem
with Golden State when they had Steph Curry, Kevin Durant
and that dynasty mini dynasty that.

Speaker 2 (01:02:15):
They hash Bros. The splash Klay Thompson about basketball.

Speaker 4 (01:02:21):
Did you see that the other day?

Speaker 3 (01:02:22):
That's someone that posted the Big Four from when Golden
State had Kevin Dean. They're like, we had all your
other teams crying, and someone replied said, yeah, what were.

Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
We supposed to do?

Speaker 5 (01:02:31):
Literally yeah, So like that, that's kind of Oklahoma City now, right,
Like they have Shay, they have the young talent Jada,
They're they're this dynasty on the horizon, but teams still
tried to win. I mean, you're you're a Kevin garant
Achilles injury away from being the Toronto Rampters and winning
a championship. You never know with the NBA how injuries

(01:02:52):
are going to play out.

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
So if Jalen Williams gets.

Speaker 5 (01:02:55):
A you know, bum knee in the playoffs, all of
a sudden, the Wolves out of two seas have a chance.
I think that for the next two years is probably
where the Wolves are going to be at is let's
get it to a point where we are clear cut
second or third and the best team in the league
and then just hope something happens. Now three years from now,

(01:03:16):
the expectations probably change again because Anthony Edwards is going
to be in a different kind of part of his
prime where he's going to be at his peak of
his powers at age twenty six, twenty seven years old.
But like Tom you just said, MJ, it's it's kind
of the same things where the Bulls had to go
through the Pistons, well, kind of the Pistons or the

(01:03:37):
Boston Celtics that La had to go through.

Speaker 2 (01:03:40):
I mean, it's a weird analogy.

Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
I was thinking, so, I said Baron jay I said,
like the guy they drafted kind of replaced Gobert. It's
like I think Terren Shannon Junior has now. I always
saw him as like a kind of high flowered, low ceiling.
He seems like he can tap into something like I
think that guy's really really good.

Speaker 4 (01:03:53):
I think you're gonna I could see him being like
a rudy gay type.

Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
Yeah, but you take that absolutely.

Speaker 1 (01:03:59):
Yeah. He was the man for like for years. Here's
my questions, point guard. You know how much I love
Brob Dillingham. You kind of have to see it with him, right,
Can he run an offense? Can he score as a
smaller player or whatever? Like they need that second wave.
The difference I see is I actually thought of like
the Bulls. Funny going back to Chicago Sports, when Tibbs
in the wrong way went all out to try to
beat the heat. Yeah, now he did it by being
like I'm playing you guys forty two minutes or whatever,

(01:04:21):
and all those guys burned out. But like I think
of like Derek Rose, how young he was there right
probably in Chicago they thought they had something long term.
The difference is, I think you do need that second wave.
Oklahoma obviously has it with the way they drafted. The
Wolves probably have to show that with their young guys
that who is the Conley replacement? Who comes in when
if you know, Gobert is gone, Like what do you
do when Randall's out or whatever? Like I think that

(01:04:42):
it's it's kind of what's simmering underneath because they're all
in this season and then have to have a plan
be if it doesn't work, and it may not.

Speaker 5 (01:04:48):
And what's nice with the Wolves at least is you know,
Jade McDaniels, Nase Reed, Anthony Edwards are locked up for
four years, so you have three starters essentially that you
know are going to be there, you know, play at
a high level.

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
The rest of it is, like you said, who steps up?

Speaker 5 (01:05:03):
So Mike Conley obviously can't play thirty two minutes anymore,
he's probably going to be closer to fifteen to twenty
minutes a night.

Speaker 2 (01:05:10):
That means Rob has to be good.

Speaker 5 (01:05:11):
And if Rob isn't good, what do they do because
they don't they don't have it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:15):
No, I mean no, seriously, it's like Devincenzo bring the
ball up right or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
It's kind of random Rand.

Speaker 4 (01:05:20):
That didn't well last year. I did not love that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:24):
Dvid Chenzo's good in his role obviously, but he's not unnatural.

Speaker 1 (01:05:27):
It's the naw Ye like naw could and obviously not's
in Atlanta now, but nah could bring the ball up
and make an entry pass. It just that is not
like how you'd want to run the offense for twenty
minutes or whatever. Right, So yeah, I mean the point
guard to me is the pressing thing. But it's also
just how good is their plan be because I think
you have to go all out this year then literally
shift immediately if it doesn't work next season.

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:05:45):
I think the the thing I've been kind of just
reminding fans is that when Anthony Edwards was drafted, he
was considered not a shooter. Yeah, two years ago, he
was a bad volume three point shooter. Last year he
put up the best non Steph Curry, James Harden you
three point nuts ever, like he is in the top
seven for most efficient three point shooting seasons ever. I

(01:06:07):
mean my hope and he could come back and be
Steve Nash like. No one knows what he's working.

Speaker 1 (01:06:12):
Well, like like we've talked about a couple of times.
Now is like, and he did that while being busy
during the Olympics, which obviously helped his progress, of course,
but now he's had this whole entire summer.

Speaker 3 (01:06:21):
I don't think he's put a shirt on all summer.
According to the Wolves Twitter account, here's the thing. I
wouldn't I wouldn't need that. I don't look like that.

Speaker 2 (01:06:29):
And I barely wear a shirt out and he's over
on the Great Wall. He's doing concerts in China. I
don't know even know is he rap performing? I saw
him have a whole concert. I was like, what the
hell is he performing?

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
I mean, I would hope like Shannon and McDaniel's look
at that work ethic and how he transformed himself as
a player. Right, there were questions about him just hey,
raw talent, but it can he work in the NBA?
Even want to play well, you know, basketball because of
the whole football, right yeah. And I think if you're McDaniel's, like,
can you work on his dribble a little bit? Can
he shoot corner threes a little more efficiency? I think,
especially Shannon getting more playing time, he's gonna to shoot well,

(01:07:00):
think right.

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
So, like and Shannon, the offense is never going to
be the question.

Speaker 5 (01:07:04):
Like he at Texas Tech in Illinois was a juggernaut offensively.

Speaker 1 (01:07:09):
Top five pick without the scandal.

Speaker 5 (01:07:11):
Yeah, which he did get cleared very in the past
for sure.

Speaker 2 (01:07:17):
Good dude, Terren Shannon.

Speaker 5 (01:07:18):
Anyways, like the offense, the issue he always had was turnovers.
And with Chris Finch turnovers, I think give him gastric
ulcers like he he legitimately hates those more than anything.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
Literally, he just picks every time.

Speaker 5 (01:07:35):
So a lot of the the interesting thing this season
is going to be Rob Dillingham also, that's his biggest
struggles turnovers more than the size, more than shooting, turnovers a.

Speaker 1 (01:07:43):
Lot of those guys Dillingham even and it's gonna be
a court vision, right like literally understand.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
Yeah, So with.

Speaker 1 (01:07:48):
The turnovers is one of those small things where the
Wolves can absolutely improve, right, And because that the turnovers
were the difference in some of those. You know, you
clean up those turnovers, then you you're the second seed.

Speaker 5 (01:07:59):
Arguably why Mike Conley plays as many minutes as he does,
because he's just not going to turn the ball over
and he starts off now like yeah, I think the
Anthony Edwards of it all though, is where if you're
a Wolves fan, I mean he's I think, what the
fifth best player in two K this year. If he
can go from the fifth the second, that changes a lot. If,

(01:08:21):
like Tom said, if McDaniels can hit forty percent of
his corner threes instead of thirty two with a.

Speaker 1 (01:08:27):
Handle, I mean, Shannon also should be a good defensive
player like bully. He's got he's got the energy, the
athleticism and the effort and he can win to learn.

Speaker 4 (01:08:37):
I think later it's so funny. His personality's laid back.

Speaker 1 (01:08:40):
Yeah, he should actually Randall his example, right, he's laid
back like off the court.

Speaker 4 (01:08:44):
He should be a bully, like a straight up bully
every time.

Speaker 2 (01:08:46):
He's on the court. Well, Finch Finch said it midway
through the season.

Speaker 5 (01:08:49):
I think Shannon had a dunk and after the game
we had talked to Finch about it, and he's just
like he plays with like a reckless viciousness. Yeah, and
like he does like he he wants to people. The
first the first practice of training camp, he tried to
dunk on Rocko and go on Rocco. I guess blocked it.
So like the next drill, Shannon tried to dunk it

(01:09:11):
even harder. So it's like that guy is on the
court like an intense player. He's also he's also an adult,
like he's older than Aunt, laid five years in college
that he's ready to go now. So I think he's
going to be a really big storyline this year. Jalen

(01:09:31):
Clark too, I'm really a smart player, really good defensive player,
shoots threes.

Speaker 4 (01:09:35):
He's kind of just by the he kind of has
to be in the rotation, right, Yeah, I know we
talked about it.

Speaker 5 (01:09:41):
They have and I do think this year. You know,
last year it kind of became a meme midway through
the season of Finch saying we have eight starters, we
have to play eight starters. I think a lot of
that was just it's really hard to learn an offense
and play with new people when you're traded two days
before training camp.

Speaker 2 (01:10:00):
R Andell missed most of it with his shoulder injury.

Speaker 5 (01:10:02):
They already had they had to just get minutes together.
I do think they'll have like a nine to nine
and a half man rule.

Speaker 1 (01:10:09):
I think that's this year. Yeah, and I just think
Clark needs to be part of it. He's such a
defensive player.

Speaker 2 (01:10:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:10:13):
He's also like really well liked on the team, which
is which is really fun because you you know, you
see him in the like Wolves media clips and he
says he doesn't wear socks when he's playing, kind of
trolls the Wolves fans. But like behind the scenes, he's
just like a super smart, really good dude, follows Mike
Conley around everywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
Like you can tell, good dude if you ask him
about the other players, you can tell he's read the
scouting report, right, it's this in depth and like so
it is his physical ability is such a good defense.
But I think it is he's like outsmarting the guy
on the other side of the court. So Clark to
me has to be part of it, you know, in
some role.

Speaker 3 (01:10:45):
Yeah, Well that's and that's a key part of these
young guys joining the rotation is the between the ears
right the IQ and not having to play catch up
for the whole season on a team that has a
standard now. Even even going into last season, maybe some
people thought, Okay, it's one Western Conference final whatever, but
now there's a standard of success, like a standard of
winning now, and you and this team not only wants

(01:11:07):
to but kind of has to win right now. So
you needue guys that can come in and immediately understand
what's going on and at the game speed of things
that are happening in the NBA. And it's not fair,
it' studerant sports, but like all those players are basically
JJ McCarthy, right, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:11:20):
It's like it's like, we need to win now. You
need to have your role. Finch does not put up
with turnover. The whole city is to pay.

Speaker 2 (01:11:25):
Yeah yah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:11:26):
Because those are the two teams and I mind, obviously
wild if they could break through, But to me, it's
like the Wolves and the Viking should be the teams
that are kind of the cuss that couldn't pick through
and give you something.

Speaker 2 (01:11:33):
Yeah, I mean, they're they're ready to win now.

Speaker 5 (01:11:35):
Like if Rob does pan out, if he's really put
in a lot of work this year to kind of.

Speaker 2 (01:11:40):
You make the Western Finals, you're ready to win two years, right,
you're ready to win.

Speaker 1 (01:11:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:11:43):
But like if Rob is that's the most fun part
of the beginning of the season for me is if
Rob is just good, if he comes in, hits forty
percent from three, doesn't have a ton of turnovers, His
like first step and dribble moves are like awe inspiring.
He's like ai Alan Iverson with like his shiftiness and
cut back dere Derek Rose defense defense. He plays hard,

(01:12:07):
like doesn't compliment a lot of people on their defense,
like he consistently compliments Rob on just the effort level.
So if he comes in and he's just good and
is you know, playing twenty eight minutes, this team could
be a finals favorite. It's just we have no clue
because last season he was working on his jump shot
and trying to get a little bit caught up between

(01:12:28):
the ears of just it's hard to be a point
guard in the NBA. It's not like it was in
the nineties where you just throw it into the post
and kind of stand off in the corner. It's there.
He is trying to be a scorer. Deaila has to
be a scoring threat for sure and has to shoot
way better, and you it's it's so underrated just as

(01:12:49):
a point guard in the NBA or in the w
NBA too for that matter of just everything runs off
of the first pick and roll, so you have to
figure out what the defense is going to do, where
to pass it, Who's going to be open off of
four seconds of a play. It's hard, especially for a
nineteen year old kid that was a backup at Kentucky
and got drafted eighth overall. So I think early this

(01:13:09):
season we'll probably know within the first fifteen games though,
if he's if he's good and is going to be
a really big impact player, or if it's you know,
the Wolves are calling Malcolm Brogden and other people like
please help us anybody.

Speaker 1 (01:13:25):
Comley would do it, though Conley would just be like
screw this whole kor yeh, I mean, that's the thing.

Speaker 2 (01:13:33):
If if he's not good and it's.

Speaker 5 (01:13:35):
It's looking bad, right, the Rob might be on a
different team by the end of November, that.

Speaker 1 (01:13:40):
Phone will be working. But we all got our fingers
crossed for Rob that hopefully that he pans out title
aspirations for both of our basketball teams in town. I
want to talk a little Minnesota link, some college football,
and of course some Harasslin before the show, and a
couple more segments of worst case scenario to go for
the year. We'll be right back after this.

Speaker 3 (01:14:27):
Welcome back to the worst case scenario, the worst version
of the worst case scenario. I mean, it's just utterly
terrible live from the Minnesota State Fair. We only have
a couple more segments to go, thank god, because we're
just dying up here. I mean, I don't know how

(01:14:48):
we're gonna fill all the rest of this time.

Speaker 2 (01:14:51):
I'm just ambling around.

Speaker 3 (01:14:53):
I'm lost without my north Star here to guide me
on worst case scenario. But I'll try to do what
I can max fully here alongside Tom Schreier, Andrew duke Witz,
Brett's Black, a Moreray.

Speaker 2 (01:15:08):
And can you guys roll your rs? I can't. You
can't do it nothing for you.

Speaker 1 (01:15:14):
That's fine, that's fine. I'm big in South America. I'm big.
I'm big in South America. They loved me out there
because I can. I can, I can roll the can
roll the art. They say, hey, they say, my Portuguese
is pretty damn good.

Speaker 2 (01:15:28):
Yes, that you say that?

Speaker 5 (01:15:32):
Before I even met Max. Some guy came up to
me and was like, you know that.

Speaker 1 (01:15:37):
Actually the first time in Portuguese.

Speaker 2 (01:15:41):
This is why this show is so bad, This terrible,
This is why it is terrible.

Speaker 3 (01:15:45):
If if only we had someone more talented to help
to leave the show. I just if only, I mean,
maybe there, did I sell Genie bottles here?

Speaker 1 (01:15:56):
Could make a.

Speaker 4 (01:15:57):
Wish time machines?

Speaker 2 (01:15:59):
Maybe be could basketball turnback time? I mean, I just
I'm lost, bro mvfe. All right, we only have a couple.

Speaker 3 (01:16:13):
More segments for worst case scenario for the foreseeable future.
In the not so distant future, as in, like I
don't know, twenty minutes from now, the WWE will be
kicking off the clash in Paris.

Speaker 1 (01:16:25):
Pay per view. I still call them pay per views.
I don't like premium live event.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
I don't know e l E sounds there even know
what that is.

Speaker 1 (01:16:32):
I'll just take pay per views so people understand what
it means.

Speaker 2 (01:16:34):
Can I really quick here just on fee? Yeah, and
my shirt? I did just did just you real quick?
Did ask?

Speaker 5 (01:16:40):
So this Isnafisa Collier's stat line last last night from
a twenty four point win against the Sun. She had
seventeen points, nine rebounds, three assists on seven of thirteen shooting,
one of two from three, three blocks, two steals, no turnovers,
plus nineteen in.

Speaker 2 (01:16:56):
Twenty seven minutes.

Speaker 1 (01:16:58):
Is that good?

Speaker 5 (01:16:59):
That was considered a bad game for her leading off,
it was MVP is or MVP has taken a step back.

Speaker 2 (01:17:07):
That's by putting up a literal Hall of Fame.

Speaker 5 (01:17:10):
Performance so insane. Her standards are better than that. Like that,
That's what's That's what's crazy about what fees doing in
the w right now? Is that stat line two Fee
makes people go, oh my gosh, what's wrong with her?

Speaker 2 (01:17:25):
How on earth?

Speaker 1 (01:17:27):
Which like half more than half the league is praying
for just one game? It's a bad game for Fee.

Speaker 3 (01:17:32):
I would assume she's still the odds on favorite to
win MVP, even even missing the time. Does the w
NBA have the same type of rules as the NBA
when it comes to like missing time with injuries and
you have to play X amount of games stuff like that?

Speaker 5 (01:17:44):
No, I mean, Fee it it. The w NBA does
reward playing more than any other league. I mean the
last I think five MVPs have only missed like two
or three games, So there is that to it, but fee,
I mean, she's the reigning defensive Player of the Year
that leagues, leads the league in scoring, and is shooting
sixty two percent as a true shooting I.

Speaker 1 (01:18:05):
Was saying it last year. People probably just thought I
was being a homer.

Speaker 3 (01:18:08):
But when you go to those Links games and you
watch her play in person, she is significantly better than
pretty much everybody else out there. I mean, she's legit man, woman,
airbud whoever.

Speaker 2 (01:18:20):
She's one of the best human beings.

Speaker 1 (01:18:22):
I've ever seen play basketball in my entire life.

Speaker 5 (01:18:25):
Yeah, it's you know, the team calls it like she
plays with like a sense of grace because she doesn't
make mistakes and everything just seems so like smooth and
elegant like she has. She grew up watching Kobe, so
she has a Kobe mid mid range fade away. She
studied like Tim Duncan, so she has like Tim Duncan's
like post footwork and up and under a game. She

(01:18:47):
shoots almost forty percent from three. She's a ninety percent
free throw shooter. Up until her injury, she was actually
having a fifty to forty ninety season as the defensive
Player of the Year from last seas. I mean again,
it's people compare NBA to w NBA and it's apples oranges.

Speaker 2 (01:19:06):
Like Fias six to two.

Speaker 5 (01:19:07):
She could not be a power forward in the NBA,
but like what she is doing in the w n
B A is pretty much just wrecking the league.

Speaker 1 (01:19:14):
Like, yeah, they needed a Maya Moore, right, and they
got someone from like literally the same city from Yukon, right,
and like yeah, and she replaced I guess that role.

Speaker 5 (01:19:22):
There are pictures of Fia and Maya Moore as fee
as a kid, and I mean she's just you know,
for how good of a basketball player she is off
the court, she's kind of the same way. I mean,
she's very involved with social justice. She's really involved in
the community. She's a wonderful mom. She has her kid
around all the time.

Speaker 2 (01:19:40):
And I mean someone someone sparking up.

Speaker 1 (01:19:46):
Someone for the Minnesota Lakes coming up here with the playoffs, right.

Speaker 5 (01:19:52):
But the thing that's like most hoof is that like
is behind us.

Speaker 3 (01:19:59):
Foul y'all got didn't let your boy?

Speaker 2 (01:20:07):
But I think when tomorrow, I think with with Fie.

Speaker 5 (01:20:14):
Kind of the most impressive thing about her is she
does she has this superstar aura about her. But she
doesn't act like a superstar. I mean incredibly humble. She's
incredibly kind. She's the person that, like last year when
she was dealing with planter fascy itis, like unprompted, just
talks to me in an elevator, like just a super nice,

(01:20:36):
like kind person.

Speaker 2 (01:20:38):
And for for the most part, that's why.

Speaker 5 (01:20:39):
The Links have been so fun to root for and
why so many fans have gotten attached to this team,
because they're just authentic and kind, which apparently I just
got a text that Courtney Williams throughout the Twins first. Really, really,
there's some gas. I don't know how many fans are
actually there to see the sands for US tens tens.

Speaker 3 (01:21:06):
And you're up close with the playoffs right around the corner,
or a couple of weeks more games?

Speaker 1 (01:21:09):
How many more regular season games? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:21:10):
Links have five games left. If my math is right,
let me double check here quick. They have get we
have to get. Accuracy is actually most important on this show.
I know we need to have a correct They have
five games left.

Speaker 5 (01:21:23):
They have clinched the one seed, so they have that's incredible.
Nothing to really play for other than wrap feet and
bubble route.

Speaker 1 (01:21:31):
Well, that's that's the other carrying on the rest of
the Like the seeding is, it's still gearing so we
don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:21:36):
So the links, the links are the one seed.

Speaker 5 (01:21:38):
There's about three teams fighting for the eight seed to
be their first round we don't know yet, and the
two through four seed is still kind of up in
the air too.

Speaker 1 (01:21:46):
But the links are just the.

Speaker 2 (01:21:47):
Links are the one seed.

Speaker 5 (01:21:48):
They won a franchise record thirty one games last night.
We did talk to Cheryl about it of just like,
how do you manage five games with nothing really to
play for?

Speaker 2 (01:21:58):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:21:59):
And her aunt her was pretty much, you know, my
group is pretty intense.

Speaker 2 (01:22:03):
They're going to make reasons to.

Speaker 5 (01:22:04):
Play for which they play the Ages, Yeah, they play
the Aces who are fighting for seating. Golden State is
the expansion team that's been kind of surprising everybody filling
up whatever San Francisco's arena is.

Speaker 2 (01:22:19):
I can't remember that oracle Oracle that's.

Speaker 1 (01:22:21):
What it is.

Speaker 5 (01:22:22):
Valrie sweet name too, Yeah, VALKYRIEZ is a good name.
And then Paige Beckers comes on Monday for Dallas, so.

Speaker 1 (01:22:29):
They'll reduce minutes, right. I seem like at some point
there'll be some management in terms of making.

Speaker 3 (01:22:33):
Especially considering the fiat the ASCO that happened at the
end of that that blowout game.

Speaker 1 (01:22:39):
I would assume that she's.

Speaker 2 (01:22:40):
I would assume it gets shortened like a little bit.

Speaker 5 (01:22:43):
But at the same time, w NBA games are only
forty minutes, so thirty two minutes for a starter is
you know, kind of thirty five, right.

Speaker 2 (01:22:55):
So it's it's interesting, you know to think.

Speaker 5 (01:22:57):
I think what's what's more going to change the last
five games is trying to get like their ancillary players
locked in, Like Bridget Carlton is kind of their fourth
or fifth option on offense. Have her shoot like nine
threes tomorrow night and just get her locked in, you know,
off the bench. Dj A Carrington has been a really
big impact since the trade deadline. Let her run a
ton of offense and just get reps. I don't know

(01:23:19):
if the minutes will change a ton, but I think
like the roles that people are playing might tweak a
little bit just to get people feeling themselves going into
the playoffs, which they're they're around the corner.

Speaker 1 (01:23:30):
I'm I'm super excited, man.

Speaker 3 (01:23:31):
Last year the Links playoff run was so much freaking fun,
and that place like it felt.

Speaker 1 (01:23:36):
It felt like when the Wolves were in the play
like it was. It was packed to the brown, the
line was out the door of the Target Center. The
whole city was lit up. I mean, the energy in
there is just it's it's next level. And then the
potential to see you know, Finals basketball right here at
the Twin Cities at somewhere, and that I mean that
Links Liberty series last year was legitimately one of the

(01:23:57):
best playoffs until.

Speaker 2 (01:23:59):
The very seven.

Speaker 1 (01:24:00):
Right it's gonna be it'll be series this year. So
I think that's what everybody's evolved throughout the playoffs.

Speaker 5 (01:24:06):
It goes up throughout three, five to seven. I think
that's what everybody's hoping for is the finals rematch. It's
interesting with the Links though, because they are I mean,
they're the best offensive team in the league, the best
defensive team in the league. They have the lowest amount
of turnovers in the league. They pretty much lead every
category by leaps and bounds. Their net rating is double
the second team in the league.

Speaker 1 (01:24:27):
Even the.

Speaker 2 (01:24:29):
Most popular players in the league.

Speaker 5 (01:24:31):
Right now, every Connecticut they were playing in Connecticut yesterday,
there was more pink wigs than Connecticut fans. It's it's
kind of taken over. There's not really a clear number
two though this year. New York has dealt with injuries
all season. They haven't really been fully healthy the entire year,
and now they have five games to kind of figure
it out. Las Vegas was a sub five hundred team.

(01:24:54):
They've won twelve in a row. Their last loss was
actually the loss that Fee got injured in, and then
Atlanta has been just kind of climbing up the standings.
But there's question marks there too, of just they're a
newer team put together. Britney Griner kind of runs everything
over there, and she's an aging superstar. The Links just
kind of have everything clicking at the perfect time. They've

(01:25:17):
been dominant all season and there's not really a number
two that I think they would be worried about. So
I would expect the playoffs they're going to be coming
in with kind of the same.

Speaker 2 (01:25:27):
So where's the parade route going to be? Hearing a positivity?
I'm like looking up at it, when's the sky gonna fall?

Speaker 5 (01:25:35):
It's the weirdest thing because, like Links fans, this is
this is their lives. It's an odd year and they
hang banners on odd years, so This is just kind
of like when do we show up for the playoffs
and like how loud can we be? I mean, I've
been comparing it recently just to the if they don't
win a championship, it's like the seventy two to ten

(01:25:57):
Warriors losing a championship. They are statistically the best team
that has ever played in the w NBA compared to
their peers of that, so if they don't win it,
it is going to be that type of letdown. I
think what's important to remember though, is you know the
FISA Collier doesn't really take games off. Cheryl Reeve is

(01:26:20):
a four time championship coach at the Helm, and they
have nine starters on this team, So it's it's gonna
be a fun playoffs.

Speaker 2 (01:26:28):
No, and it ain't no if they're gonna win the championship.
You heard it here.

Speaker 1 (01:26:33):
Worst case scenario, they're gonna win. We don't know anything
about winning here because we're we're just a bunch of losers.
We just got to watch the Links, Yeah, exactly. We
gotta learn from the Links and and the Frost. We'll
watch some game tape during the commercial break. Maybe we
can learn something before we close out the show for
the year, one more segment of worst case scenario to

(01:26:53):
go right here on.

Speaker 7 (01:26:54):
This classic worst case scenario fashion.

Speaker 1 (01:27:25):
We have just a couple of minutes on the.

Speaker 3 (01:27:27):
Last it always happened every single time, every single time,
it happens to be that way.

Speaker 1 (01:27:33):
Just a couple of minutes left.

Speaker 2 (01:27:34):
I feel like we.

Speaker 3 (01:27:35):
Should at least talk a little w W. I I've
teased it like three four times. I'm not I'm not
known as a tease Brett Blake Boras.

Speaker 1 (01:27:42):
So I think we should depends on how much money's on,
what is the most interesting outcome that could happen at
class in Paris for you guys today, I think that realistically,
I think Bronson Reid beating Roman reigns.

Speaker 4 (01:27:58):
I don't think it's gonna happened.

Speaker 2 (01:28:00):
Shenanigans perhaps maybe perchance what Shenanigans division controversy. You know
that they would dare win dirty no way, But yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (01:28:12):
Think I think that could be that could be interesting.
I think everything else is kind of pretty. It almost
feels like a house show, like you kind of.

Speaker 2 (01:28:18):
Under do you see the set though, they're like walking
out of the Eiffel Tower. Actually tried for one that's
that's pretty sweet.

Speaker 5 (01:28:25):
Well, Paul, if Paul were to get over Sena with
some Shenanigan, because then that just means they're going to
continue it and you have to use one more John
Cena thing on.

Speaker 3 (01:28:36):
And I'm not a I'm not a Logan Paul hater
and actually flipped. I used to hate Logan Paul and
not mind Jake Paul. Now I hate Jake Paul Logan.

Speaker 2 (01:28:45):
Paul, that's the right. I don't like Logan Paul, but
you have to respect what he does in the ring,
like he's.

Speaker 4 (01:28:49):
Just good at it.

Speaker 3 (01:28:50):
And as he was saying in his promost the other
last couple weeks, I didn't realize you actually can't say.

Speaker 4 (01:28:55):
He's a as an outsider anymore.

Speaker 8 (01:28:57):
He has been doing this for the bet half a decade,
about four five years. My problem is that I think
he hasn't evolved. Yeah, he still has the same move set.
He hasn't really he's.

Speaker 2 (01:29:08):
The same person exactly. Well, but the thing is he's
got nuclear heat just as Logan Paul, so he really
doesn't need the true match. True, here's a barn Burner
Seamous versus russev in a quote good old fashioned Donnie
Brooks match your thoughts, which I mean famous is even
allowed to lose. You can't lose a good old fashion

(01:29:29):
I know, and you're irish. That doesn't make sense. Most importantly, though,
world heavyweight title Rollins punk l A Knight j us.
I think Rollins has to start.

Speaker 1 (01:29:40):
I think retaining.

Speaker 3 (01:29:41):
I think this is a I think there's a moment
where they get you where it's like Bronson Reed, where
he's gonna be tired from the Roman damn thing. You know,
brown Breaker will come out, but then he'll he'll you know,
Jimmy us are someone will take him out. I think
this is where a new member of the Vision pops up.

Speaker 2 (01:29:58):
That name is, who do you think it would be?
I would love I know that people.

Speaker 3 (01:30:01):
There was there was some rumors on the dirt she's
it doesn't really match up with where he's at right now.

Speaker 2 (01:30:06):
She still exists, like Internet, Yeah, that's really weird. Like
even the kids know about it now, you know, like
kids talk.

Speaker 3 (01:30:12):
Like when I was a kid, I was like, oh
my god, the under Caine really just set that guy
on fire for real, Like that.

Speaker 4 (01:30:18):
Was one hundred, Like you couldn't have yeah and buried.

Speaker 2 (01:30:23):
It'm like how could that be fake? He's there now,
he's doing podcasts, and now kids are talking about works
and shoots, and I'm like, don't work yourself into his shoot.
Rest in peace?

Speaker 1 (01:30:38):
Are being Peter?

Speaker 3 (01:30:40):
Worst case Scenario the year bread like case scenario scenario memory, you.

Speaker 2 (01:30:48):
Know, just being at the fair the We've been here
a couple of years now, so it's always fun.

Speaker 3 (01:30:54):
A shout out to everybody who's been a part of
Worst case Scenario three points, Oh, Brett Blakemore, Andrew duke Witz,
Tom Schreyer, Zach Calverson.

Speaker 4 (01:31:05):
Shout out to Zach Calverson, anybody else.

Speaker 1 (01:31:09):
I don't think there's anybody else.

Speaker 2 (01:31:10):
