(00:00):
Good morning more haibun sawasd. Whateverlanguage you speak and wherever you are at
in the world, scratch that,wherever you're at in the universe, humans
and aliens alike, you are tunedinto what we affectionately call the worst case
scenario. Guys, we almost didn'tmake it to the air today. That

(00:26):
I don't believe that. Another Sunday, Another Sunday, another we almost didn't
make it to the air story.This time our fearless leader Chad Abbot.
Get this, guys, he wason the verge of selling off the entire
station. What WHOA? He gotan email from a cousin that he didn't
know existed that happens to be aNigerian prince that was interested in buying the

(00:47):
station. Abbot was ready to makethe deal, but we told them that
that's a common scam. So wefought fro and nail and low and behold,
voila. We realized it was ascam and we are back surfing the
airwaves that are FM one hundred pointthree kf x N. He's actually gonna
sell the station just for pure gold. My name is a Maxweller aka Froe

(01:14):
Deschanel aka Max kil O'Neil ak amillion other things, and I am the
chief reason we are referred to asworst case scenario because my friends here are
the cream of the crop. We'redemacho man, Randy a savage. First
up, we got a guy thatloves America so much he has painted his
head red and blue. He's alreadygot the white covered. And it's white.

(01:40):
I'm selling you ten, it's pale. It's a wider shade of pet.
He's been grilling and firing off fireworksin the studio all morning. Back
in Iowa, they call him theCornfield Casanova. Here in Minnesota, we
simply call him Brett Red, whiteand blue. Like yeah, no,

(02:00):
guilty as charged. I've brought myair mattress here. I've been cooking out,
grilling lots of cheese pizzas here.So yes, America, bleep yeah,
bluemore. I mean that's I mean, if any of the sales effort
listening out there, I mean,maybe we can get bred of blue chee.
I love that one. I'll endorseanything you want me to glue too.

(02:25):
Next thought, we got a guywho has unofficially dethroned Joey Chestnut as
the hot dog eating champion seventeen yearsin a row, but was banned from
competitive eating for pulling up Pete Roseand betting the over on himself. He
is the Long Island Sound, theFive Borough Bellow, the Human Onion,
the most eligible bachelor out of GotThem City since Bruce Wayne, himself,

(02:47):
the international man of Mystery, misterRobbie Rose in I never bet on the
hot dog contest. I will say, though that I am ashamed to admit
I once did bet on the ProBowl. I will I will admit that
though. So that's that's more ofan exhibit. Yeah, that's an exhibition.
But again like it's actually like realplayers, but not somebody having to

(03:07):
eat something. It was actually playersout there playing. But I think it
was when that was back in Hawaiimany many years ago, ten fifteen years
they actually, like you know,played a game, yes, instead of
instead of the skills competition, whichhas its own place. But nevertheless,
happy to be here with the twoof you jokers again, happy to be
here as well. We have atext already texted in and said, everybody

(03:29):
else is having best of shows thisholiday weekend, why didn't you guys have
a best of episode? Dot dotdot uh sorry, keep up appreciate it
one. He would have done thebit instead of saying, keep up the
good works, and keep up thegood keep up the well, just keep
going keep I mean, look atthe name. We could have did a

(03:50):
worst of why not? Thank youhave been great. I actually believe this
is, if my math is right, this is the twenty second day of
worst case Wow. Yeah, Iknow we're old enough to drink, old
enough to drink now. I rememberwhen power trips. We're twenty one years
old one, so we'll be luckyto do one more. I'd like to

(04:15):
think we're just getting started. Youknow, radio is a crazy business,
you ever know, But I'd liketo think we're just getting started. And
even though we are just getting started, I've got retirement on the mind today.
Boys. Oh no, Unfortunately forsome of our listeners, I'm not
talking about myself, but rather WWEsuperstar Johnsina, who, after teasing it

(04:36):
for the last couple of years,finally announced last night that he will be
retiring from in ring action in twentytwenty five. We all knew it was
coming. Doesn't make it hurt anyless. I was very emotional last night,
and I want to dive deeper intoJohn Cena's retirement, specifically in our
fight Line segment later on, buthis announcement last night got me thinking,

(04:59):
and I was curious to ask youguys, which athlete's retirement hit you the
hardest emotionally? For me, Iwould probably say it was the It was
the Kobe last year the tour.You know, I ran. I ran
the full gamut of emotions on KobeBryant. I absolutely despised him. Hated
the earth that he walked on asa kid, obviously as a kid Timberwolves

(05:20):
fan, because the Lakers were bustingthe Wolves ass every single year, They're
winning the championship all the time.I hated it. I hated dynasties as
a kid. I still mostly hatehim. Now hated Kobe Bryant. Eventually
I realized that I only hated KobeBryant because he was awesome, and I
came to love Kobe Bryant. PlusI was busting my friend's asses and two
k with him. It's kind ofThat's an underrated aspect of video games,

(05:44):
is they they bring you to loveplayers you wouldn't normally love. So I
grew to love Kobe Bryant by theby the end of his his fifth ring,
I was rooting for him the firstone, all the other four,
I was absolutely cheering against him.I was rooting for him, and just
that whole last year. I mean, obviously he had some ups and downs,
most downs in that last year,but that last game in general,
where he just willed the Lakers backinto that game, a meaningless game.

(06:05):
They weren't going to get into theplayoffs or anything like that. But that
was just so emotional, and youknew he was retiring. You knew that
was his last moment. You didn'twant Kobe Bryant, one of the all
time greats, to go out likethat. And then he just completely brings
the Lakers back into the game,hits the game winning shots, scores like
sixty points and it's the most amazingthing ever. And I was an emotional

(06:25):
wreck. I was, even thoughI knew it was happening all year.
I was not ready for the KobeBryant thing, Dan, And part of
it is obviously nostalgia, you know, like Kobe was all ever since I
became a cognizant NBA fan. Yeah, Kobe was there. He was obvious
omnipotent, and he's like the godof basketball when you're coming up around the
age that I was coming up.So just it makes you feel old,

(06:45):
it makes you feel sad, makesyou reminisce on your childhood days. But
I was I was hit right inthe feelings when Kobe Bryant retired. What
about you, Robbie, Who's who'san athlete? When they retired, it
hits you really hard. First ofall, on Kobe, you certainly got
your phil that last season because ifyou remember, they were not good and
he was taking twenty five shots aday, so he was just going around
and it was literally the Kobe ExhibitionTour because they were a bad team and

(07:11):
and he was getting gifts everywhere,and it was great because he deserves and
he's he's one of the best players. I mean, just going back to
that two thousand and two thousand andone, two thousand and two run,
just those three titles in a rowwith Shack, I mean, just incredible
basketball when you look back on it, book ended by my team, but
right in the middle there and justhow well Kobe played, and obviously we
missed him dearly. One guy Ididn't miss dearly was and just thinking about

(07:33):
retirements, and again, it couldbe personal, but it can also be
somebody who's one of the greatest playersever, just like Kobe Right. I
didn't root for this team, Ididn't root for this player, but I
was happy to see Marianna Rivera retirement. He did retire. He did a
retirement tall also. I mean itwas a World Series MVP, a five
time world a five time champ,I mean, thirteen time All Star,

(07:55):
pitched to a two two eras thegreatest closer ever to pitch in the game
of baseball, and just every timehe went out there, whether and again
they only played the Mets a coupletimes a year, but just because I
was such a Yankee hater, It'salmost aken to the Vikings Packers here,
where it's like you're always wondering whatthe Packers are doing. And even though

(08:16):
they're not in direct competition, theMets and Yankees and Vikings and Packers are
always wondering what they're doing. Andfor Mariano Rivera just to dominate the sport
like that for as long as hedid, just to see him go,
and he did it with class too. I mean, he was an awesome
pitcher, and he was just hedid it with class all the way.
And I'm sad that he pitched foreighteen eighteen years for the Yankees, including

(08:37):
seventeen as their closer, and justa remarkable pitcher. And again somebody I
was happy to see go. Butsomething that I remember because like Kobe,
when he went to the different places, he got gifts and things like that.
Brett briefly going back to you saying, you use Kobe in two k
Yeah, I would say more thanseventy five percent of the reason I was
upset the Rogers was leaving the Packersis because I'm like, you're telling me

(08:58):
I have to not use a ninetyoverall, the guy misses his passes.
My entire life playing Madden, thequarterbacks are always absurdly overrated, stupid,
stupidly precise. Anyways, the retirementthat affected me the most to piggyback off
the baseball team, Robbie, you'llknow it well. Chipper Jones, Number

(09:20):
Tenipper John all Time. Why Iwear to this day anytime I played recreational
sports, number ten of four,number ten my whole life boor Chipper Jones.
He was an all timer. Iloved him. So much. He
was in the heart of the steroidera, never took steroids. One of
the best switch hitchers of all time, one of the best third basement of
all time. But it was morehe had a great retirement tour. Teams

(09:43):
are giving him gifts everywhere when hewas an All Star that year. But
what pissed me off was how itended. Because if you remember, yes
wild Card game against the Cardinals,They're supposed to win that game and by
the way, they were terrible foras soon as Chipper retired, Brave stunk,
they were awful. It was theinfield fly game in Atlanta, and

(10:05):
that was Chipper jones last game wherebasically the Cardinals or no, it was
the Braves. October. Oh,it was on a Friday. I remember
exactly where I was, and yesit was because I went to my high
school's football game right after, andI was just so emotional. I didn't
want to go. Just ran onthe field and yeah, I might as
well. Did you did you throwtrash on the field? Oh, wouldn't

(10:28):
that be great if I did?But no, the Braves they hit up.
I think it was Amilton Simmons hitsa pop fly into you know,
short left, but it was inleft field and the ball drops because the
Cardinals are discombobulated. Ball drops.Runners advance, We're about to tie this
game up, and they go backand say it was an infield fly even
though the left fielder in left fielddropped it. And then it basically cost

(10:52):
the Braves the game. Fans thrownyou know, garbage on the field,
and then uh, Yadier Molina,who I still like to this day.
Chipper got one more at bat andYachty kind of went up and delayed basically
so Chipper could have his his curtand call in Atlanta. It was very
nice. Yeah, that devastated me. He was he was my all time
favorite baseball player. Yeah, it'sjust it's when when it's the person that

(11:15):
got you into sports, you know, it just makes it you assume as
a kid, they're going to beplaying forever. I was really sad when
Alex Rodriguez retired. He was myfavorite player as a kid. He's said,
Yeah, it's like, you know, I was sad when Chadow Chill
Sinko retired, When Kevin Garnett,It's it's yeah, I mean Tim Duncan

(11:35):
for me, I mean just justwatching him for for so just to move
it back to basketball. I meanjust watching him for so many years and
not only do it, but doit the right way and and no frills.
Just a basketball player. I hateit. And not only that for
that exact reason, but really doesn'teven like watching He doesn't even like basketball

(11:58):
like somebody. He wasn't a basketballI shouldn't say he doesn't like basketball.
He wasn't a basketball junkie. Someof these guys out there are basketball junkies
playing two K you know, watchingall watching the league whatever. He never
did that. He separated himself,but he always went to work and that's
why he was the perfect superstar.And I was lucky to root for him,
and that one kind of hit hard. But he did get that,
uh that last title there with Kawhibefore he departed into the sunset. And

(12:20):
obviously there's a lot of reasons thata retirement can affect you. Sometimes it's
more sad because of the circumstances.A lot of people texted in Kirby Puckett
obviously, that's what I mean.Yeah, especially here locally, that's just
like, that's so emotional, andthat's someone that was robbed of some of
his prime years because of an injuryand and whatnot. Someone said Brian scalabrini
retirement was brutal. I don't remember. I don't remember back really white mom,

(12:46):
but I don't remember how that,how exactly that happened. I do
you remember litview and well he hadhis career taken short too with all those
he had cancer. I know,yeah, that's what I'm saying. And
he was and he was part ownerof the team late and I mean he
basically saved the Penguins with the Crosbypick. But yeah, lem you sure,
yeah, later in his career.Certainly that was an emotional one of

(13:07):
the best hockey players ever. Brett, going off of what Robbie was mentioning,
what is there an athlete that youwere happy to see you retire?
Piazzas Mine was definitely paidon Manning.He killed killed my Titans every single year.
I just hated everything about I hatedhis voice. Sounds like he gargles
turkey legs in the morning. Ican't stand him. And to see him

(13:30):
right off into the sunset, itmade me sick. Oh, I hated
it. I was I was happyto see Peyton Manning go I'm not a
Brett Farv hater like a lot ofpeople in town or I get there's mixed
feelings because of his his success hereas well, But I was just happy
that that a whole circus was done. I was tired of the yeah,
is he gonna retire? Is henot? Is he coming out? He's

(13:50):
gonna It got all of Tom Bradytoo, but at least tom Brady was
exciting because it was like, Hey, maybe my team can get him and
we can ruin a Super Bowl.Yeah. You want to talk about players
that make you sad and later tieor happy they retire. I experienced both.
Yes, yes, you had theroller coaster emotions. I was sad
and then I was upset, andthen I was confused, and then I
was angry and then I was happy. Was is there an athlete out there

(14:15):
that you guys think could come outof retirement today and still play at a
high level, not necessarily be achampion or be the best, but come
out of retirement and still be playat a high level. I mean,
have you seen those Wrangler commercials.I'll give you one, and it's kind
of a cheat, but I'll giveyou one. Andrew Luck, Yeah,

(14:35):
I mean, that's that's a layout. That's a layer for sure. Andrew
Luck, for sure think about whathe could have been, right, Like
I think about how how hype TrevorLawrence was coming into the league. It
doesn't even compare to the hype thatLuck received. And the Vikings screwed that
up by winning late in the yearin Washington and then they ended up getting
Yeah, yeah Luck and then rG three. But Luck would be the

(14:58):
one to me that that it's likewhat could have been with him? Yeah,
for sure. I mean I wasn'tsad about it again, growing up
as a childhood Times man anything butthat. No, yeah, still and
still you hate to see a greatgo, and he was a great.
He was a top ten on topI mean yeah, top ten quarterback in

(15:20):
the league for most of his timethat he was in the league. I
would say Floyd Mayweather. I meanthat's kind of a also a cheat answer.
Yeah, but I but I andI truly believe that Floyd man and
I was not sad to see Floydretire. He is one of the people
that got me into boxing, whichis one of my favorite sports. But
he did. There is an argumentto be made that he kind of ruined
boxing. Yeah, in several ways. The spotlight was only ever on Floyd,

(15:43):
so I wasn't happy to see himgo and everybody else get a little
bit more shine. But I thinkhe could come out of retirement. I
think. I'm so serious. Ithink he could go tottoe with Terrence Crawford
right now. I think he couldstill go total jelly. Yeah, I
don't know. I don't know himversus Canelos going the same way could be
dominant like that. But I dothink that he could go. He could
go to welter way, he couldgo to lightweight. Those he could fight,

(16:06):
I mean ten versus Tank Davis wouldbe incredible. I think he could
fight guys like Terrence Crawford Tank Davis. Of course, evens, I still
think that Floyd Mayweather could compete.I'll say gsp I had we had George
Saint Pierre for those UFC newbies outthere, he was a legend of the
sport and got back at two twentyseven he submitted Michael Bisping, which was
about five years ago, and Ithink he could still get on the mat

(16:30):
and even in his forties and definitelygrapple. Speaking of UFC, how about
Conrad Gregor he should come out ofretirements. They should, Yeah, they
should, he should come into retirement. Just give it up, just just
hang it out. Just incredible.We got a lot of different answers on
the text line. Josh Gordon,Yeah, what could have been with that

(16:51):
NFL career? Mike Tyson retiring andhis after I mean he retired several times.
Lots of boxers went out sad withtheir retirements and unretire and Marry Sanders
would be Barry Sanders obviously. Anotherone that was too sad. Calvin Johnson,
that one that one bothers me evenwatching. He was so awesome.

(17:11):
I'm just crazy that the lines wereso bad for so long that two different
all time greats we retired, youknow the prom you know, you know
it made me really sad and heretired. Jake Cutler, that was really
sad. It made you said,or the Barborough man, it made me
sad because we've got we lost allthose free interceptions to exactly like hair on

(17:36):
the board, Magic Johnson textas Texanand obviously super sad circumstances for Magic Johnson,
more Kirby Puckett, lots of lotsof feelings about retirements. We'll get
into John Sina's a little bit laterand we'll all probably you know, start.

sometimes they don't. Hear a worstcase scenario. I want to bring

(20:56):
back what's the scenario? Okay,an ill fated game that I came up
with a few speaking of my NFLseason prediction last year was dreadfully wrong.
But I want to bring back,what's the scenario? I got a couple

(21:17):
of hypothetical questions to throw at youguys, so I want to I want
to play what's the scenario? That'sthat's offering for today? All three good?
All three? The polls are upon Twitter slash x at K fan

(21:57):
Worst Case Scenario is live and localon a Sunday morning, Max Fuller here
alongside Brett Blake Moore and Robbie Rosenhouse. We always said this is the people's
show, so we want to startthe segment with the people. Kevin from
Madison, Wisconsin is on the WorstCase A line and he wants to holler

(22:18):
at us, what was good?Kevin? What a gang? Actually?
I'm just calling in to compliment youguys, so get excited about that.
I am, you know, longtimelistener of The Power Trip. I'm only
listening to Worst Case Scenario because Ilove The Power Trip so much and huge
ratings. Everyone loves Hawk Corey Sauce. I want to say, in twenty

(22:40):
years, you guys are going tobe crushing the power. You are the
next generation of the Power Trip.You know, I can picture it when
Max is the you know, HornyHawk, Blake, you know Corey obviously,
and then you know you got Zachmeets us. Clearly no one knows
who Robbie is. So you guys, I think people are listening to this

(23:08):
show because they see a future inthe Power Trip. I mean it might
not happen for a while, butjust keep plugging away, you know.
Calling for the compliments. Thank weappreciate Ken is very kind. I could
never, ever, ever, everever aspire to be as good as my
radio mates here. Yeah. Howoften do people confuse your name for Blake

(23:32):
or what? All the various thingsthat we call you. Every teacher I've
ever had, every coach I've everhad, have all called me Blake at
some point in time my entire life. Oh, we appreciate Kevin from Wisconsin
calling in and then showering us withthe compliments. We really appreciate that,

(23:53):
you guys. Are you guys fansof philosophy at all? Yeah? Sure?
Why not? Yeah, you guysasked the Texter said, I don't
listen to Plato I play with Isat there and debated it was gonna be
my miner for oh about half asecond. Well, you know, I
think they focused too much on,you know, old philosophy. What about

(24:15):
new philosophy. What about twenty firstcentury philosophy, like twenty first century philosopher
Miley Cyrus for example, Yes,who once poignantly said it's a party in
the USA. It is. Buton Monday night the only part of the
US men's soccer team was thrown wasa pity party after falling to Uruguay one

(24:37):
Nilwell, a farewell party, wowfall und Uruguay one nil, and getting
unceremoniously bounced from the Copa America tournament, which, for those that don't know,
it's a prestigious cross continental soccer tournamentfeaturing the top national teams of both
North and South America. The UnitedStates bounced from the Copa America, once

(25:03):
again, embarrassing US as a nation. This I'm just going off of what
soccer fan. I'm a casual,I'm going off of what soccer fans.
I mean. The pitchforks were out, jobs were being were being lost in
the minds of soccer fans everywhere.Nobody in the United States is happy with
the men's national team. And it'sa loaded question, guys, but what

(25:23):
went wrong for the US national team? I know you guys are both elite
soccer minds, you're big fans ofthe team. I'm assuming you watched the
game on Monday night. What wentwrong and what continues to go wrong for
the US men's national team? Yeah, A lot is the short answer for
one. I think. I mean, Uruguay is a really good team.

(25:45):
I know the constant narrative is all, well, if they are a smaller
population in the US, the USshould be beating everyone, which I think
is a pretty big myth. Butthey're a really good team. I think
what went wrong was against Panama.They lost their heads. They get a
red card eighteen minutes, and TimWaya shouldn't get the call for Team USA
for at least a year as faras I'm concerned. I mean, that's

(26:06):
unexcusable. He put out a niceapology, We're happy for you, that's
the bare minimum you could do,but to get ejected and to make your
team play ten down. The refwas terrible there as well, but ninety
percent of it was the US's ownfault. Losing that Panama game. And
then you put yourself in a situationwhere you have to beat Uruguay, which
then puts you behind the eight ball. And even though they had some good

(26:29):
play, they had some good chances, they ended up losing on a goal
that shouldn't have been allowed anyways becausehe was about a foot and a half
off sides. But VR doesn't care. And even Messi has come out and
said that come a ball, whichis like the South American federation that runs
this tournament is corrupt. Even Messihas said that, So I'm not shocked
at all. The US didn't getany calls whatsoever. But again I'd say

(26:52):
ninety percent of it was the US'sown fault, not playing well enough,
especially in the Panama game. AndGreg has to go. But more on
that later, Robbie, Yeah,I was curious. I just want to
present that to you, Robbie.Is it the general feeling is it's mostly
on the coaches? Yes, itis. I mean it's going backwards.
I mean, if you go outsideof this competition for a second and go

(27:15):
back to the last few friend lastfew matches that they played, competitive matches,
they barely got by Jamaica, whois just an awful team and they
got demolished by Columbia, who isa Yes it was in a friendly,
but still it was It wasn't goodeven with the addition to flow Ballagoon,

(27:36):
arguably their best player in the tournament. Uh. The gap between the USA
and CONKYCAF teams not named Mexico,I think is narrowing. And that's really
sad because if you go back tothe last World Cup when they got out
of the knockout stages and lost tothe Netherlands, there was some progress and
yeah, people thought there was Yeah, there was a step where they tied
with England. And I don't wantto hear about this Golden Generation, like

(27:57):
I just I don't want to hearit. If you can't get out of
the group stages with teams like Panamain your group, you have much deeper
rooted issues and I think with youneed a new code of paint on this
program. Headed to the biggest WorldCup. They're expanding the World Cup.

(28:18):
They're going to more teams. Obviouslythe US's in it as the host nation,
doesn't matter what they do. They'rein the Saudi Arabia home they were
in the World Cup. So Ijust think moving forward. They need a
new face of the program. Idon't know who it's going to be.
You're gonna ask me for some names. I have no idea at this point,
but it can't be bur Halter anymorebecause he has no ideas. He's

(28:40):
not proactive. He's more reactive whenit comes to subs. It can get
more into that. But I justdidn't like the product. I didn't like
what I saw over the three games, and I just think they need some
momentum moving forward. Yeah, andthat's pretty much the consence. Right.
Everybody wants to coach Gone. Theywanted him gone years ago. Even the
US team wanted him gone right butcouldn't find appropriate replace. Or there's one

(29:00):
coaching Canada right now. There inthe semiology, I guess I agree and
disagree with you, Robbie to anextent, because I think the talent is
there. This is the most talentedUS team there's ever been. Polisic is
on the form of his life rightnow. Yes, and he played very
well in the tournament despite them gettinggrouped. I think if a competent manager

(29:22):
was there, this US team wouldbe really good. And the CONCA CAF,
the US has won three straight CONCACAFFNations League. They dominate this.
I mean, the gap between Mexicoand Canada, everybody else and then the
US is night and day. Inmy opinion as far as talent goes,
if that's their division region to loseas far as concap goes. The problem
is is when they get up intothese top twenty nations where you start playing

(29:48):
European teams, you start playing SouthAmerican teams, right, that's they just
lose their heads. And to me, that's on a coach that is an
MLS lifer who and we need someonewith a little bit more experienced coaching players
that are actually good enough to goover and play in Europe. Sorry MLS
diehards, but again we have tohave someone I love. If we convinced
clopeh, will you increase your taxesto get rogan Klop over here, I

(30:10):
know I would, No one elsewould, but I would so, And
that's kind of I mean right here, we just kind of saw the split
in US soccer fans opinion. Right, that's kind of the opinion that at
you're of the mind they do havethe talent right now to be better competitively
at the global and international level.And Robbie, you're of the mind that
they're not talented, they're just notgood enough to face off against these other

(30:30):
teams. And I'm curious because I'veI've seen it debated on social media,
and I saw interesting take the otherday. Someone was saying that youth sports,
because the US focuses so much onlike this, the youth sports culture.
We all know how it works.You got to play this and this
thing and that thing, and parentsgot to pay to travel and do all
this and that. A lot ofpeople says say it starts at the youth

(30:51):
sports level. That at the USjust made it more accessible, because that's
one of the reasons that soccer isthe most popular sport in the globe is
all you need is a ball.That's the reason. That's right, that's
right, and you don't even needthat. You just need you can find
two garbage cans, to be exactly, or you could just practice your just
it's the same thing with my basketballis on the rises because there's a whole

(31:12):
barrier of entry. But that doesn'tseem to be the case in the US
on the youth level. Do youthink that has anything to do with it?
Or you're you well, well,our country. Well, for first
of all, our country is andI understand the problems that are some some
people in our country have, butfor the most part, our country is
an upper to middle compared to thirdwall countries and stuff. So this is

(31:34):
why these other sports are more popularwhere parents can't afford things like hockey equipment,
which Brett I'm sure can tell youis super duper expensive for the heart.
Yeah, growing up and and buyingequipment and thing and and stuff,
and obviously football equipment and yeah,but people are saying soccer is kind of
in the US is becoming like thatin the sense that you have to be

(31:56):
on these traveling teams. You haveto be a part of You can't just
talent, isn't an to that point. You see a lot of these European
clubs coming in and setting up campshere in the US. You see Arsenal
doing it. You see Manchester City, Yan City just sign like a sixteen
year old from the US. Yes. Yeah, So you see these English
clubs, and I think Bayron Munich, the top club in Germany, although

(32:17):
not this past season, but overthe past two decades, has been the
top club in Germany. They havesome camps set up here, so they're
always mining for talent. They're lookingfor talent, and I think it is
growing and you'll see it kind ofbuild to a crescendo as we get towards
the twenty twenty six World Cup.I think with Copra America and with euro

(32:38):
kind of splashed on our screens herefor the last three weeks to month,
it's a nice preview for what's tocome in two years because games are going
to be on in our time zonesand people are going to be really glued
to their TV and with how multinational our country is, it's going to

(33:00):
be the most watched and it's goingto be the most publicized and it's going
to be the biggest World Cup ofall time. And going back to all
the points that we talked about,they need a new face of the program.
And Breck can argue all he wantsabout the players being good enough,
but I think the coach him andI agree, has to go absolutely.
And as far as the U sportsbit go, uh, the fan has
learned the best athletes aren't always therichest ones, you know, Yeah,

(33:22):
athletes come from everywhere, and thefact that it is so and you know,
part of it is the reputation oflike if you're playing soccer in high
school and that your sport, likethe rep is at least when I was
in high school, you know,ten years ago, which is crazy to
say out loud, is that like, oh, you're you're playing soccer,
Like what are you doing? Youknow what? The girls being the soccer

(33:43):
captain, you get the girls beingthe quarterback. Correct, right. Also,
guys who play multi sports, you'renot Soccer's not right, It's not
I mean, you're not right.You're not going to make life changing money
quote unquote in the MLS for forlack of Yeah, so you're probably gonna
choose a different sport. That's whyI look at baseball. I mean,
if you want to kind of raiseyour kid to be a rare athlete who's

(34:07):
gonna make a lot of money,either a right handed defenseman or a left
handed pitcher, Like those are thetwo kind of those are the two rare
kind of commodities now in modern daysports would be the left handed pitcher and
the right shot defenseman. So ifyou can trade your kids to be one
of those, then you're starting onthe right path. Yeah, But as
far as the U sports go like, there has to be a low barrier

(34:28):
to entry because the more just purelystatistical, the more people you get into
the program, the more talent you'regonna find, and the more opportunities you
give. And yeah, there are, you know, kids like Polisic who
had family and he went over toEurope at a young age to play and
developed over there as well as overhere. But there's probably you know,
hundreds hundreds of more that didn't getthat opportunity that maybe would have been world

(34:51):
class. But quickly, this USteam is full of players that play in
top five European leagues. There's noreason that the town isn't there because I
got a text like they'll never begood, They'll never be good, like
they could be good tomorrow. Likeanyways, just one more quick thing.
And I think you both would agreethat we tend to not only for this
team, but we tend to overrateour our own players in certain sports,

(35:14):
certain teams whatever. And I thinkwe have a little touch of that because
if you look at the other teams, you call me bias towards America.
Now you're saying, first, Iwant to say excused this. There's no
doubting that Christian was unbelievable. ButI want more from I want more from
some of the other players. AndI really think that as a cohesive unit,
they can have another coach in herewho can at least get them as

(35:36):
far as they went in the lastWorld Cup. I don't think Perhalta will
do just that. It'll be interestingto see how this little experiment plays out.
If just a coaching change will beenough, if it'll be players exchange,
whatever. But they got to figureit out before twenty twenty six,
when the World Cup comes to NorthAmerica. We'll all be patiently waiting for
when that happens. Around the corner, we're going to debut a new segment

(36:00):
from the Depths that is Reddit rightaround the corner, Worst case Scenario on
the fence. Welcome back to Worstcase Scenario, Max Fuller, Robbie Rosenhouse

(36:42):
and bred Blake Moore hanging out withyou till one pm on a Sunday.
A little bit of a palate cleanserof a segment. After all that stocker,
heated, passionate, knowledgeable. Ishould have heard talk, you should
have heard the break. Yeah,you should have heard it. Off the
air. Well, that's why wehad some fun stuff to talk about off
the air. The break kind ofalmost thrown to kind of calm the others

(37:02):
were being disrespected. It got itgot pretty heated. It was actually yeah,
go ahead, no, no,I was gonna say that. Brett
and I we we we recreated thescenario that the Reds and Yankees had at
Yankee Stadium where the sets of teammatesstood out there until the end of the
national anthem until the managers had tocome out and get them. Because got
fourth, they had to be thelast one standing on the field before the

(37:28):
flag was taken off. So Brettand I had that contest there between the
glass all the the NHL too,like the last one off the ice for
warm ups, yep, as theas the as they wait until the flags
leave the ice. I got alittle bit heated. And here it can
also get heated on Reddit dot com. Are you guys familiar with Reddit dot
com the website? No, Inever read it. That's terrible. That's

(37:55):
terrible. That's like if you're seeingfamily guy with that ostrich and the yeah,
I that I just saw a tumbleweedgo by. Yeah. Reddit is
yeah, widely known as a treasuretrove of some of the worst opinions and
thoughts mankind has ever produced. CorrectIt's like if there was a museum of

(38:17):
awfulness that refreshed its exhibit every secondof the day, but sometimes it does
produce gold. And that is certainlythe case with the am I the A
Whole? Reddit page? Perhaps themost famous Reddit page that there is,
and it is a whole as everyonea whole AI T A as it sometimes

(38:37):
abbreviated. Eighteen million people are subscribedto this page. The people from all
around the world come together to sharestories of their lives and ask the simple
but loaded question, Am I theA hole? And it is? It
is a social experiment at work everysingle day. It's incredibly, endlessly fascinating

(38:59):
to to browse into. So Ipulled a couple of these stories from the
AI TA the m I the AHole Reddit page, and I want to
present that question to you guys,okay in this room and you guys out
there in the audience, who isthe A hole? In these situations?
Here's scenario number one. Every Sunday, my family rotates who makes dinner.

(39:22):
We come from an Italian family,but we are in Canada, and I'd
take my food very seriously, especiallyItalian food. I spent all day preparing
dinner, and when we sat downto eat, my sister's boyfriend was hemming
and hawing, saying my meal wasmissing something. He said he needed hot
sauce and started walking to my fridge. I like hot sauce too, but

(39:43):
I don't dare mix cuisines like that, so I stopped him, saying I'd
appreciate if he enjoyed my meal asis. I told him, at the
very least have some calibri and chilioil he can use, or dried chili
flakes, then it would at leaststill be Italian. He insisted on sri
racha and I declined him. Ideclined him. He escalated it and said
he was going to the store tobuy his own bottle. I said,

(40:07):
and she said, if that's thecase, by all means. He left.
We finished up dinner and we calledit an early night. Everyone was
putting their coat on and he returnedand he was pissed. Who is the
a hole in this situation? It'sit's definitely the guy who needed the siracha.
You can eat serracha on anything atany time, at any point of
the day, you can go homeand bathe in and if you want to

(40:29):
sit there and eat the meal asis, enjoy it with family and don't
be the a hole. That's myopinion. That's what I think too.
I'm curious because Brett, you're apicky eater, so I'm curious. I
want to save yours for last.I would say I would agree with Robbie.
I think this guy is the ahole, even if that's what you
really even if that's what your tastebuds are screaming at you. If someone's
that insistent that you don't, Ithink you gotta respect that man, because

(40:52):
cooking is a craft and an artto some people, and that would be
just like showing somebody to Mona Lisaand then you draw mustache on it and
some you know, exactly like.So, if someone's insistent you have to
have this meal this way because theycrafted it that way to be tasted that
way, then I think you gotto honor that. And just for some
hot sauce, I mean, comeon, man, like you said,
you can put it on anything.You can get a little to goat box

(41:14):
and put it on. And whenyou get back to the crib. But
you didn't have to do it rightthen, you didn't have to stand ten
toes down on it. And that'sthat's the thing you could have just even
if you felt that way, youcould have just been like, hey man,
my mistake, and then it wenthome and put your little hot sauce
on. I was gonna say,here's the pro move. Eat half the
meal, say you're full, bringthe other half home, slather it with

(41:35):
saracha right and get you five times. Slather it with sounds like an Emerald
commercial. It sounds like an urbandictionary term sarracha, slather reret blakemore could
be we could coin it right now. You're a notoriously picky eater, not
proud of it. I'm curious tosee what you how you feel about this

(41:58):
situation. Who is the well I'llsay this, I agree in the sense
that this guy should not have dugdown and definitely should not have gone to
the store to get his own bottle. I mean that's a little extreme,
But my question is was he tryingto add to rochet to everyone's like like
to the to the whole meal,or just so it's just his plate?

(42:22):
Who cares? Who cares if ifhe adds something extra to his I don't,
like, you're that disrespected that youroh your meal is now ruined because
one person is experiencing different like giveme a break. Now again, he
shouldn't. He should have just saidall right, whatever, like I won't.
He shouldn't have went to the store. So he is also an a
whole. But come on, Imean, it's one guy wants a little

(42:43):
hot sauce. Give him a break. That's I mean again. But but
you're a picky eater, right correct, Okay, so you have no shame
in time, day or whatever,as long as you get the food.
That that sufficing. Know how manyfamily dinners I've watched everyding my thumb.
So so this is why this fitsperfectly because it it really doesn't matter.

(43:06):
You know, he should be allowedto eat whatever he wants and however he
wants, just like you would eat. You know, if it's not if
everybody's anybody else, Like if itwas like something where you got like almost
of a face or the plates inthe middle of the table and then he
added serach to that'd be like,what's this guy doing? Like you've ruined
the meal? Foreverybody, right,But if it's just for you on your
own plate, I don't see theproblem. Right, Like if there's a

(43:27):
huge plate of vegetables and mashed potatoes, he just pours a serracha on for
everybody. Yeah, right, suck. No, I get that guy would
be it but huge. But Itotally understand why you feel that way,
Brett, because you're comfortable eating inuncomfortable surroundings. Well that's why. That's
why I specifically one, specifically becauseof bread, because I was curious to
see how he would feel about it. And I get what you're saying one

(43:50):
hundred percent and I totally understand it. But yeah, Italians do not play
out there, especially on Sunday,especially on Sunday night that's around. So
I'm just gonna just in case there'sany listening, you know what I'm saying.
I'm gonna say that that guy's youshould see right now. Max and
I both had our hands off likefive oh, just came back the door

(44:14):
right now. I don't want anyproblems with Italian problems with the Italian community,
especially if they're from Canada. Becausethere's a stand up comedian. This
is his famous saying you know what. No one's ever said, oh,
you know what we should do forfood tonight? Canadian? Yeah, right
exactly. They do not play abouttheir food. So I get it,
especially if you're the cook. Iget it. You want it, you

(44:36):
you put that much effort into it, you want to see it be eaten
as is. I totally get thatsecond scenario for you guys today, this
one. I think this one's there'sit's pretty clear whose day holding this one,
But I'm curious to you guys's thoughts. And the listeners thought six for
six eight six. If you wantto chime in, this guy says,
I went to a brewery yesterday withmy wife. Our name was called and

(44:57):
to get a table indoors. Iwere happy for it. Sick restaurant,
Brad. We had to cut througha patio and a lab type dog got
up and started sniffing my ankles.I looked at the owners and said what
the hell and pointed out the dog. They just said the classic line,
Oh, don't worry, he's friendly. I admit I was a touch rude.
I just said I'm not friendly.They pulled the dog back under the

(45:20):
table. They started saying, ifyou aren't friendly, you shouldn't be coming
to a dog friendly restaurant. Itold them, just because the place is
dog friendly doesn't mean it's okay fortheir dog to come up to me.
They seemed baffled that someone didn't liketheir dog. He called me an a
hole and told me to find somewhereelse to walk. I said, bleep
off. As we headed to ourtable. My wife was like, you're
right, but couldn't you have beenfriendlier? Was I the a hole?

(45:45):
Absolutely? Yeah, absolutely yeah.You can't talk to a dog like that.
What is wrong with you? Thisis a bigger slam dunk than like
Anthony Edwards in the playoffs. Yes, yeah, Summer, this is Anton
a fast. This is Jordan fromthe free throw. I mean this is
the finger rollop. Yeah. Thisthis is the biggest a hole maybe in

(46:07):
the world right now. I mean, at least in that vicinity. For
sure. You can't talk to dog. If a dog wants to come up
to you and be your friend,you better be that damn dog's friend.
All dogs are friends. I meanI have friends even snoop, I have
friends with like German shepherds, andshe's great, that dog. But even
I could even come around to theidea of you being weird out if it

(46:29):
was like a more aggressive breed,you know, like being a little a
little nervous about it. You're nervousor scared is a totally ner human reaction.
But being a jerk about it andsaying bleep off and saying I'm not
friendly to dogs. It's like,well, well, now you're threatening my
dog and we're gonna have to throwhands. Now. It's as I was

(46:50):
gonna say, a lab if it'sa little different, if it's like an
akita or some sort of like reallya huge kulking dog or wiler or something
that perhaps you know you have somesort of thought that could cause trouble,
but not a little a lab.I mean collaps are angels on her?

(47:10):
Ye? What are you doing?Yeah, it's like love lab retriever.
Would you say he's the guy thatwasn't gonna let airbud play on the teeth.
Yeah, that's I mean, Imean that's the easiest case of who's
they all times? I mean yeah, and he was just sniffing, like
even if even if the jumps likeput his front paws on him, Like

(47:35):
I could even understand that being alittle upset, But like this guy sucks
to say you're not friendly to dogsand telling people to bleep. And also
I would assume, just my generaltrust in humanity, that someone's not going
to bring a dangerous dog to arestaurant, Like if the dog had beef
with people, you like to thinkthat people wouldn't have even brought him around
the other people. You know whatI'm saying. I don't think I've ever
been to an outdoor patio with dogsand seen a pitbull. Yeah, exactly,

(48:00):
he's around the world, correct,and the text sign is an unanimous
agreement, except for now do yousee this six one two guy? You're
one hundred percent wrong whoa legally,ethically, morally the dog owner must in
all caps control their dogs? Mygod, geez, somebody doesn't judge Judy.

(48:23):
Is this the president of a bigdog catcher? Like with all caps?
I mean, come on, man, you're wrong legally, ethnically and
morally morally the dog sniff Morally,you're you're a bad You have no morals
because you let your dogs. That'sa dog, can't your dog? Like

(48:43):
I wouldn't even put my dog inthat situation if I knew that there was
a chance that they could get set. I will say this, if the
if the dog, for example,urinated on your foot, that's a whole
nother story. Then then you're allowedto get mad at the owner. And
it's yeah, I mean that's that'sa completely not saying but completely different.
But he has no reason to getmad at the dog sniffing his ink.

(49:06):
Six one two guy, I mean, I can't even I can't even walk.
I went to the Twins game onFriday, and I was walking to
the stadium. I saw two orthree dogs. I can't help it,
just going, oh my god,there's a dog. Yes, yes,
yeah, yeah, I love dogs. Six one two guys says, what
if the dog suddenly bit him?It didn't, It didn't, it didn't.
That's like, that's not part ofthe story. What if Yeah,

(49:28):
what if the dog magically became abipedal and grew an apposable thumb and and
went to the store and bottom andshot him. Yeah, you know,
like that's like we can come upwith what's all day? This is the
scenario. Yes, and the scenariois this guy pretty much the reality pretty
open and shut, open and shutcase. That was the m I the a
whole segment for the day that wasfun. I like that, Yeah,

(49:52):
I even like that as what's thescenario exactly? I didn't even go I
could be part of what's the scenario? Yeah? Wait a resurrect what's the
scenario that could be? Way iswinning in the vote forty eight percent the
scenario win football doesn't always. Ifyou want to cast your vote, go
on Twitter slash x at KFN onezero zero three will close out the show

(50:15):
with the fan favorite segment coming upnext. We got a couple of segments
that are you know what weekly segmentsand a new twist on an old segment,
Second hour Worst case Scenario coming atyou after this second hour of worst

(50:47):
case Scenario is in a fact MaxBuller here alongside Robbie Rosenhaus and Brett the
Lake more. This is the peopleshow here on KFA and lots of people
texted into the text line about themi the a whole segment something will definitely
have to bring back and we'd loveto hear your input for this segment.

(51:08):
A little segment we'd like to callthe fight line they get like a fan
line for boxing MMA and above allelse This week, Rasslin Professional Rasslin.
There was a big time event yesterday, WWE's Money in the Bank went down
in Toronto. Several noteworthy things happeningin the ring, but perhaps the most

(51:34):
notable moment of the event did nottake place in a title match or a
ladder match, but rather it wasan announcement from the Doctor of thuganomis himself,
John c You a word of life. He announced that after twenty plus
years in the WWE, he willbe retiring from in ring action in twenty
twenty five. There was some confusionon win exactly he's retiring. Some it

(51:58):
sounded like he made it seem likeit was Wrestlmania. But he's says January
through December. He's basically going ona whole year long retirement tour about thirty
to forty shows, trying to getas many people to see John Cena as
possible. So again, he's beenteasing it for years. We've been knowing
what's happening because he's up there inage. He's got a big time Hollywood
career. Now. I still wasreally sad hearing it yesterday. Man,

(52:22):
But the roller coat, the emotionalroller coaster of Oh my God, John
Cena is here, like what ishe doing here for? In Toronto too?
He's retired, like he's really actuallyretiring. Yeah, and wrestlers,
people in combat sports in general comein and out of retirement all the time.
But you know John Cena, there'sjust something under Exactly, Sean michaels

(52:44):
in one of the worst of alltime, But we know John Cena is
a He's a different kind of cat. If he's saying it, he's dead
serious, like this is going tobe the end. That's it. So
obviously very tumultuous career for John Sanna. He was the face of WW for
most of those twenty plus years.He carried the company through some of its

(53:06):
worst moments financially, creatively and otherwiseand now and obviously the crowd was very
mercurial towards John Cena. Sometimes theyloved him, a lot of the times
they hated him. But now thathe's been gone and not in our face
every single week, I think weall have come to appreciate him and realized
that, I mean, he's maybein ww's whole history, he is the

(53:28):
face outside of like a guy likehul Cogan, who's obviously a terrible person,
right. He's the face of wwin general period. I mean,
Stone Cold was awesome and he hadreached heights that nobody had ever reached.
The rocket, but John Cena wasthere week in and week out for decades.
He's the face. He is theWWE s I never wait, so

(53:49):
I believe it. You got yourgene shorts on today. Yes, just
an honor and spinner chain out ofrespect. Absence makes the heart grow fonder,
whether it's the undertake and the raretimes that you see him, and
now every time that you do seehim, it's a whole spectacle. And
I think that's where we're going tosee with John Cena. I watched his
entire press conference after the Money inthe bank, and he was very humble

(54:14):
and he did not want to reflectnow on his career and what he has
done inside the ring. He talkedmore about kind of the impact that he's
had outside the ring and what hesees moving forward for the company and basically
how he's not going anywhere with regardsto his place in the WWE. Universal

(54:35):
is going to show up. Buthe did make one remark that did catch
my ear was that he said he'snot going to do any run ins,
there'll be no special guest refereeing,no bumps. So he's done with the
physical part of wrestling, so notjust the matches. And like Max said,
he's gonna have about thirty to fortydays, hopefully one of them will
be here in the Twin Cities thathe'll be able to in some sort of

(54:57):
storyline, be able to kind oftell one of those chapters here in the
Twin Cities, whether it be aTarget Center or the arena. Forda was
here and he would have had hislast manium that went that went through my
head last night. Way to Go, the Way to Go, State One
that we have a whole year makesme feel anything. So much money fantasy

(55:19):
booking that you have for John cin his last run is almost certainly gonna
happen. I mean, we gottasee we got to see him in Punk
again at some point. I wouldassume we got to see him in Randy
again at some point. Obviously someof the new guys, Cody l a
Night and whatnot. But so Idon't think his last match though, will
be him winning. I think hewill put somebody. I think he guy

(55:43):
agreed with that, you guys agreewith that in theory, that's that's if
it's up to him. Yeah.Me personally as a fan, I'm like
you over John, Like I wouldlike to see him win his last match,
but that's just that's what he's gonnado. That's the kind of guy
that is. You're a diehard John'syeah, yeah, how did you feel?
So how do you feel as afan? I grew up in like

(56:04):
the height of his like when hewas taken off and they put a rocket
on him and push him in themoon. That was like my childhood,
Like Russell Mania twenty three, thematch against Sean Michaels, like that was
my entry. So he was alwaysmy guy. Here's my question. Should
he get the seventeenth title? Ithink he should. Well, I think
he deserves. I think he shouldbecause he's on the he's got he's tied

(56:25):
for the record right now sixteen withwith Rick Flair. Ww's made a point
to be shattering all these old records, especially records held by controversial figures like
Rick Flair, and again just ashomage, just paying it back to John
Stena being the face of WW carryingthat company on his shoulders for twenty plus

(56:46):
years. I think that he deservesit. He should be he should be
the most decorated champion of all time. And again every time that we refer
to that record, now we haveto bring up Rick Flair and everything,
all the baggage that comes with bringingup Rick Flair. So I I do
think that I think if you askedJohn Cena, he would see. I
think they did ask him yesterday.It said something about it has to be

(57:07):
earned and this and that and this. He's probably not going to keep it
for very long. I could seehim winning it and dropping it the very
next day, but I necessarily didwith sixteen. I think that there should
be a case that he should winhis seventeenth and break the record and get
that record. If you go tokind of all the production values that goes
into what WWE is putting out now, it's never been better. Would you

(57:29):
guys agree that the video packages andeverything. I mean, if you saw
that at six how amazing? Howcool was that? And we're going to
get into some of the matches,but how cool was that camera angle that
they had over kevin owned shoulder Atone point it looked like you were his
tag team partner at one point.Some really cool innovative stuff, uh that
they're doing and uh, I justdone. I just I just think that

(57:52):
you mentioned Rick Flair and this wholeangle of is he going to win another
time? He said he's going tobe in the rumble. That's a chance
for a shot at Mania for thetitle. He said he's gonna be an
elimination chamber. That's another chance.He mentioned in the bank and money in
the bank. I think that himholding the Brieest case that was going through
my head last night. All's like, oh my god, like but then
we know he's going to cash inand then obviously give up, give it
up afterwards. But still would becool to see, uh, to see

(58:15):
him do that. But the onething you mentioned about Ric Flair, I
think he can be utilized in avery small way in those video packages where
they'll go to him, what whatit means to be a sixteen time World
cham What John Cena we' from RickFlair's fair? No, No, that's
fair, but fair. I thinkwe've heard enough from Ric Clair what you're

(58:35):
saying. The less I see theless the more we see him in the
ring, the more it takes awayfrom how great he truly was at one
point in the industry, he should. You're right, he should go away,
and he's come back way too manytimes. But I think with all
the with all the guys in thestorylines here, they may be able to
bring him back just a small amount. Yeah, who cares about that.
I don't care. I don't careabout it from Ric Flair's point of view

(58:57):
whatsoever. But we care about seeinga breaking the rector. Yeah, I
think I think Sina should break therecord. I think this next year,
twenty twenty five is just gonna beso magical him being there for the first
Monday Night on Netflix. I wasgonna say it, it coincides with Netflix.
Yeah, that's gonna be awesome.First f bomb on Monday Night.
Yeah gotta. It's absolutely gotta be. It'll be a magical twenty twenty five

(59:22):
for sure. And it might seemobvious that he's gonna break the record.
But sometimes obvious choice is the rightchoice, which is I would say,
exactly, Yeah, there you go. I would say, is a fitting
statement for both the men's and thewomen's Money in the Bank matches last night.
Drew McIntyre was the obvious choice towin. I would say, there
was there was varying opinions, butif you had to gun to your head,

(59:43):
you had to pick somebody out ofthose yeah five, I would have
said Drew McIntyre probably was gonna winthat one. I thought that potentially USO
with him. I wanted all overthe he was all over the promos.
He cut an awesome promo just beforethey went to the match. I thought
that that was a sign that Andplus he's as we know, he's super
over. Yeah. Yeah. Thecrowd loves him. Michael Cole loves him

(01:00:07):
even though he have him involved inthe chance and the chance so I thought
that he would it would be aYeat bank situation, but the way the
match turned out, it was probablyeven better. I know his bit is
main event jay Us, So Idon't know he's good. I just I
just don't see him as like andI'll do the hands thing like Pat mcavee.

(01:00:30):
I don't know. I like jayUs a lot, obviously. I
think he has some room to growon the mic by himself, but in
the in the ring, I Ilike. I like jaj USO's bit a
lot. The crowd absolutely loves him, the yeat versus the yeah thing and
the money in the bank was awesome, and it does kind of suck that
every time he gets these main eventspots he almost almost never pulls through and

(01:00:52):
actually comes through. I thought thathe probably was the one to benefit the
most from it. But out ofthose names, if there was going to
be no interference like there was yesterday, I would have said Drew McIntyre is
the obvious one. And then eventually, obviously he ends up catching in the
briefcase later on in the night,loses gets caught seem Punk costs is an

(01:01:14):
opportunity to pretty much wrestling fans aresplit. Why did he even win the
briefcase? If they was just goingto negate it right away? Punk should
have interfered in the match. Blahblah blah blah blah. How do you
guys? Are you happy with Drew'sfailed to cash shit? Yeah, because
I'm I believe Brett that anytime youget a match at a premium pay per
view that doesn't have a title,that will have this much build up when

(01:01:35):
you're going to get and I assumewe're going to get Punkin and Drew at
at summerslamb so sure, and Ithink that the build up to that will
be to levels that we haven't seenin a while for a non title match.
I think it'll be electric Brett.In the moment, I was very
upset at the idea, just becauseit was like, what's the point of
even putting a briefcase on it?Right afterwards, when it clicked that not

(01:02:00):
only did he screw see him Punk, not only did he screw Drew McIntyre
of the title, and further's thatstory, but if further there's the Seth
story too, Because I thought thatwas a brilliant Yeah. So so that
will probably be your Mania match parttwo. Hopefully both of them stay healthy.
But but because of that little wrinklethat they threw in where if I

(01:02:20):
lose, I'm not going to challengeas long as you're the champion anymore.
Now he's screwed from that as well. So I thought that was pretty brilliant
long term booking, even though inthe short term it was pretty still Yeah,
I kind of right away, Iwas kind of like, as soon
as Drew one, I was like, there's no way he's winning the championship
because from Drew Punk, which isthe hottest, which is my main events,

(01:02:43):
I was just gonna say, youknow it doesn't need the title.
Well, and if he had one, then that he's he's facing Gunther.
He wouldn't have been able to firstpunk Atomatic because that that kind of to
me, tipped their hand a littlebit about that Drew at least wasn't going
to be the champion. I justyeah, see him punk has cost him
what like three four five different timesnow, Drew you know what out of

(01:03:06):
him on SmackDown. Yeah. Yeah, I just think, like like Robbie
said, a non title feud,that's this red hot, that's this emotional
that's blending. I mean from thevery beginning, that's been blending real life
friction between those two possibly and thefictional friction. Right, that's not even
that's the best because even us,when you're a kid, you think it's
all really you think. But whenyou're an adult you still knowing what we

(01:03:28):
know. I still am like whenyou did they did they get approval for
that? Did they? You know? Like? Did? It feels real?
And that's the that's the one wrestling. When you blur the lines is
when wrestling's at its best exactly.So, I mean, look at the
rock smacking Cody with the with thebelt and stuff. Like that. I
mean, that's that's believable stuff,right. Uh, of course you got

(01:03:51):
to mention on the women's side,Minnesota's own one of our out of pilate
Saint Kate's go Crazy. She wona brutal with a capital B, brutal
ladder match on the women's side,which was, man what it was.
I mean even even Michael call onthe announcing was saying that it was uncomfortable

(01:04:14):
to lots sometimes because there were somejust brutal spots in that match. Tiffany
Stradden pulls down the women's briefcase welldeserved. I thought multiple women could have
win. It would have been awesomeif Chelsea had won. Got the hometown
wop and everything like that. Butuh, but I I thought Tiffany Stradden
was was the right choice one thousandpercent. I just thought the match had
way too many. It had spotsfor the sake of having spots just like

(01:04:39):
this. It was good. Itwas a fun match. Oh you thought
the women's the Chelsea Green bit outsidethe ring. I mean that's like TLC.
Okay, okay, it was good. It was that was good.
There was two there was I didn'tI thought that. I thought there was
and that's fair. We can agreeto that. I thought need to break

(01:05:01):
down every single no, of coursenot. But I thought the men's match
well, actually, in the women'smatch, he had a spider suplex which
was incredible from EO. Sky.But I thought there was a couple of
spots. I just thought that therewasn't a lot of good kind of storytelling
in that match compared to the men'smatch, and I just I just think

(01:05:23):
it kind of lacked a little bit. Uh But listen, Tiffany winning.
I mean, we talked about thisfor the last couple of weeks as to
her potentially winning it, and nowthis may rocket her to start two seconds
side note the fact that Chelsea Greenwas afraid of heights and that was like
that, It's a brilliant comedic relief. I love the whole Chelsea Green,

(01:05:45):
but I was all in on herwinnings, as was the rest of Canada.
But I'm super happy to see Tiffanywin and she was the one to
benefit from it the most. TiffanyStratton wins on the women's side, Jew
McIntyre on the men's side. Alltypes of interesting storylines steming out of what
happened money in the bank yesterday,including the Intercontinental Championship, which we didn't
get to, the whole bloodline bit, which we didn't get to, a

(01:06:05):
lot of a lot of a lotof storylines going around in the WW Right
now. It is hot as afish, grease, super excited to see
it. It'll be in town acouple mondays from now, right before Summer
Slam, three weeks from now downthere at the XL Energy Center. Cannot
wait for that and cannot wait forthe next segment. You're used to the

(01:06:28):
sports this Morgas Board, the mixedbag sement, but it's got a new
twist on it this week. Andthen we'll close out with the fan favorite
segment, Brett Blake Moore, Whatdo the polls stay? We'll be talking
about in the final segment of theshow. Well, what's the scenario is
still in the lead with six pointnine prodst Okay, what's the scenario in
the lead. If you like it, then just stay where you're at.

(01:06:51):
If you don't, head to Twitter, slash x ATCFN one zero zero three
and shime in let your voice beheard on the poll until then, a
couple more wants to go. Worstcase scenario on a Sunday on the fen

(01:07:19):
A couple more segments of worst casescenario on a Sunday. But don't worry,
We'll be back, same time,same place, next a week.
Gotta imagine that that our shows,our show days are a little bit numbered
here, at least for the foreseeablefuture. With the football season on the

(01:07:40):
horizon. Bible gladly trade trade Releven to one for some almost Sunday afternoon
football almost time O most time.Now, you guys, remember when Katie
Perry said, do you ever feellike a plastic bag? Right? I
mean, it's kind of rhetorical question. I could one forget. It's one

(01:08:00):
of the most profound questions as seenin the movie The Interviews. Exactly you
know that that question, do youever feel like a plastic bag? It's
wait heavy on my mind for years, especially lately Robbie Rosenhouse, and it
made me realize that our mixed bagsegment did not truly embody what it means
to be a mixed bag. Whenyou went to a birthday party as a

(01:08:23):
kid, it wasn't just six yoyos, No, it was yo yos,
finger traps, crappy off brand candy, A true melting pot of joy,
and what more is worst case scenariothan a true melting pot of joy.
So, in a new twist,today's mixed bag segment will now include
non sports stories, just switching upa little bit, especially because it's the

(01:08:46):
middle of summer and there's not awhole lot of sports stories going on,
right And it's not a mixed bagif you could just predict it, if
you could just go on ESPN dotcom, ol Max is gonna read about
this, and that's about that.It's a true mixed bag segments to diversify
our minds a little bit. Youguys cool with that? Of course,
always July fourth, America's birthday,one of the best days on the calendar.

(01:09:10):
Also host of the Nathan's Hot DogContest every single year. Patrick Berti
Letty gobbled up fifty eight Glizzies towin. Sounds like a character character godfather,
and he kissed the beforehand. Hedid kiss the glizzies. He was

(01:09:32):
the Glizzy Gladiator for Slashzzy Slash Glizzie. You're welcome. Fifty eight Glizzies to
win This year is Nathan's hot Dogeating Contest. Joey Chestnut obviously the Goat,
the throat Goat, the greatest Americanathlete of our time and winter of
sixteen of the last we forget himretirement. Now, I didn't retire,

(01:09:57):
but maybe from Nathan's. He wasnot allowed to part anticipate due to some
sponsorship beef. No pun intended.And you know, we're happy for Patrick,
great, good for him, butshe ain't the man. Until you
beat the man, you're a paperchampion. I'm sorry. Patrick. It's
cool, but it's not the same. Without Joey Chestnut being there, there
was no spectacle. There was nobodytalking about Nathan's on my timeline. It's

(01:10:19):
one of my favorite for the Julytraditions, and it was taken from us
by Nathan's themselves. So they giveit and they take it. And just
because Joey Chess did, just toprove that he's still the throat Goat,
that he's still a till of thebun, that he's still the Glizzy Goblin,
the Glizzy Gladiator. Different competition.On the fourth, wolf down fifty

(01:10:43):
seven Glizzies in five minutes, whichis half the time that Nathan's had.
So he did it. He wasone short and half of the time that
Patrick Burtillett. He did. Ifthat doesn't prove even more so that he's
a paper champion than I don't knowwhat is. We're happy for Patrick,
and we're happy for our guy.We're happy for our guy. Jay Wabb
he was in the time, hewas in the top five. I saw
him. That was really cool tosee. We had him on Nine to

(01:11:04):
Noon a couple of weeks back.Go ahead and podcast that if you're interested
with lots of insightful information about theworld of competitive eating. But uh no,
Joey Chestnut, but Patrick Bertolletti isthe the Nathan's hot Dog Eating Champion
for the year. Yeo, yeah, it takes thank you, it certainly.
It certainly takes something away from it. But again, how about a

(01:11:26):
little shout out to Mickey Sudo whowon her tenth title in the women's category.
What a beast stouting fifty one hotdogs and buns. I mean,
she's like, she's one hundred andten pounds. I don't know where she
fits those fifty one hot dogs,but she gets them down there and she
won her tenth title. How aboutthat? What's her name is Nicky Pseudo?
Miki, Micky Pseudo, m Ik I s U d Oh from

(01:11:51):
Japan. I believe, Yes,she is from Japan. Yeah, she's
been competing for quite a while.We are going to see Joey Chestnut though,
coming up on Netflix. Want onev one with Kobe Yashi and what
is it called Unfinished Beef? Brilliant, tremendous. I mean it's gonna be
the great sports spectacle of our time. Yeah, I mean, I mean
it's been almost I think it's beenabout fifteen years since Kobayashi. I'd have

(01:12:15):
to look that up. He alsogot screwed over. Yeah he did.
Yeah, Yeah he did. Yeah, that was That was a long time
ago. And I think the firstyear when he was banned, he went
to like some rooftop in New YorkCity and just eight hot dogs up there.
I just had people film it.I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding.
You'd have to google it. I'mninety nine points percent sure that he

(01:12:36):
held his own contest, like JoeyChestnut did that. You just said before,
Max, it would be awesome nowthat Netflix is in the world of
sports and we're getting one on oneslike this, We're getting I mean that
stuff that nobody asked for, likeJake Paul versus Mike Tyson, Like,
how cool would it have been ifback in the day Netflix was around and
they could have orchestrated like a Kobeversus Jordan one on one or something like

(01:12:58):
that. You know that would havebeen. That would have been if they
could get that with basketball, likea one on one series. God,
I would pay so much money.That's worth Netflix increasing the subscription plan for
I think you're gonna have that.And you have had it with golfers because
it's so much easier and you haveso much more of a range, like
Tiger can play until you know he'sin his I mean as long as his
knees hold. I mean they're doingthat virtual bit. Yeah, yeah,

(01:13:23):
with that Roy mcelroyal think is involved. But yeah, I think I think
golf would be the one sport.But yeah, it would be really cool
to see, Yeah, or somebodylike a pitcher from the past who can
still throw off fastball or or somethinglike that. Yeah. From hot dogs
to rad dogs. Have you guysheard of the new trend raw dog No?

(01:13:47):
I know about the old trend,but this is a new trend,
raw dogging. It's a trend onTikTok that sees plane passengers about enduring entire
flights without any form of entertainment ordistraction whatsoever. No phone, no TV,

(01:14:09):
no books, no music. Somepeople aren't even doing the free snacks,
nothing, just raw dogging their flights. How bleeping insane is that?
I would go crazy if I wason a plane for the entire time with
no type of entertainyent like just sittingthere staring at the sky thinking about life,
like what is this two am atmy apartment? Though? One time

(01:14:34):
that that is inappropriate, and that'son the red eye back from Vegas.
You just you're just going to passout on the plane. That's different.
I mean, this is just thisis staring staring out the window sep not
sleeping obviously, when people look atthe flight tracker and just watch it inch
by. Can I look at theemergency exit? Can I get Can I

(01:14:58):
review the pamphlet in front of me? It's entertainment? Nothing? Would you?
Are you guys in on raw dogging? I'll tell you no chance.
This to me is right in thetrend with do you remember when no nut
November was a big thing, andit's like, who are you trying to
impress you know what I mean?Like, what are you trying to prove
by avoiding these forms of entertainment?Like what's what's the end? Who's gonna

(01:15:24):
award you and give you your cookieand metal for not? Like I just
don't see what the gain of sittingthere and staring at the flight tracker?
What does it give you? Ifanything, Nobody's gonna go like, Bro,
you're so cool, I'm gonna giveyou a straight jacket. You're certified
maniac, a card carrying member ofthe maniac Society, Like how are why?

(01:15:45):
How? I have so many questionsabout this I would like to talk
to. So is there anybody outthere listen to this show? Right now?
Yourself is a flight raw dogger ifyou if you are a flight people
on Twitter will say that I'm toughif I raw dog this flight for me
Amsterdam. Bro's that's just so great, especially on long international flights like that.
Maybe I could probably do it fromlike Minneapolis to Chicago. I'm going

(01:16:10):
to do that, but on aninternational flight, I mean going all the
way to Australia and New Zealand somethinglike that, thirteen twelve eleven hours.
You might have been but your thoughts. I mean, I'm just gonna jump
out of the plane at that point. I'll just save everybody at the time.
You might as well put me insolitary at that point, because that's
pretty much what it feels like crazy. That's it's just certififiably insane to me.

(01:16:31):
I don't understand it. But somethingI do understand is trying to get
better as a basketball team. Whenthe Sacramento Kings certainly did that. They
are acquiring thank you, Brett BlakeMore, Brett red White, thank you.
The Kings are acquiring Damar DeRozan anda sign and trade with the Chicago
Bulls. There's some players and pickswaps, blah blah, blahlah blah.

(01:16:54):
Nobody really cares about that. TheSpurs are involved somehow, nobody really cares
about that. None of that matters, thank you. None of that matters.
What matters is that one of thebetter teams in the Western Conference,
in the Sacramento Kings, just gota significant upgrade at guard, perhaps one
of the best mid range shooters inall of that, which is one of
the best scores in all of basketballtoday. I mean, he's top twenty

(01:17:15):
all time on the scoring list.I believe DeMar DeRozan quietly because nobody cares
about Chicago Bulls basketball anymore, thankyou. He's still averaging about twenty five
points a game even in his olderyears. And now the Sacramento Kings,
they go from Harrison barn to DeMarDeRozan and another team that's going to be
in a loaded Western conference that theWolves are gonna have to compete with.
The Sacramento Kings just got significantly bettergetting DeMar DeRozan. Look at DeMar DeRozan's

(01:17:41):
path here from Toronto, where hewas the leading scorer on two teams before.
Now he gets to the Kings wherehe doesn't necessarily have to be the
leading guy. He was the leadingguy on a bad Spurs team, he
was the leading guy in a badBulls geame but Bulls team, And now
he goes to the Kings where hecan play third fiddle to Fox and S.
And while I don't think that they'requite in the upper echelon of teams

(01:18:03):
in the Western Conference, he's stillgoing to give you twenty to twenty five
a game. I mean that's Imean, he's he's going to get a
volume of shots. Those three guysare gonna take up a ton of shots.
Barnes is now off the team,and I just think DeRozan fits really
well. He got a three yeardeal and uh in a loaded Western conference,
they needed one more piece and theygot it. Yeah. I do
think they're gonna with that acquisition.I do think they're going to be a

(01:18:27):
top five I think they're going tobe a upper level because they were hanging
around there for most of the year. Last year. They just they had
had some injuries and stuff with Monkand everything like that. So the problem
is DeRozan defensively is Yeah, defensively, they don't have a whole lot of
defense going on. No, theydon't have a whole lot of defense going
on. And that's where the Wolvesdefinitely have the upper and the Wolves are
still a better team. But sacramentI mean the bonus Taron Fox, Damar

(01:18:49):
DeRozan, I mean defense, Yeah, games, you know, and they
got all three levels of scoring covered. I think they're going to be a
really formidi team. I'm curious tosee how the season plays out for the
Sacramento Kings. Hopefully not too successfully, but it's gonna I'll be curious to
see DeMar DeRozan on a good teamonce again. Guys going from raw dogging

(01:19:13):
to birth control? Okay, you'rethis bag, are in the bag.
There was a new study published lastmonth that says that scientists are testing out
a new form of male birth controlthat would be a gel that you rub
on your shoulders daily. I waswondering if that was going to go.

(01:19:36):
Are you guys in Are you guysin on male birth control? I'm one
thousand percent in on I would rubit on my eyeballs every morning if I
if I that was the option,I would. I am thout. I'll
be the first person to test it. Are you guys in on male birth
control? I'm not sure that that'sthe best idea, but we'll give it
a go. There's I have likethree or four jokes that I don't want

(01:20:00):
to say. Yeah, we'll justleave it at that. Okay, all
right, Okay, guys are outon them. I'm one hundred percent on
it. That's just me. I'llbe the tough subject. I'll put it
this way. I am bald,and that the reason I didn't go to
like a cream or something to getmy hair back. Well, no,
I just you never know what theside effects may or may not be.

(01:20:24):
You just never know. I'd ratherjust embrace the baldness and not take those
risks. I'd grow a third eye. I don't care die, I don't
care and whatever. As long asI get to keep the throw and the
gel is working how it's supposed tobe working, I do not care whatsoever.

(01:20:45):
Oh that's fair, and it doesn'tsurprise many. From one kind of
bat to another. Your Minnesota Twinssent the Astros to the moon yesterday with
a nine to three win and downa target field in the afternoon. Jose
Miranda has been than a sunny sideegg up sizzlin on the sidewalk, and
he continued his hot streak, gettinghis twelfth straight hit in an at bat,

(01:21:08):
which tied the longest streak in MajorLeague Baseball history. Which anytime anybody
breaks any type of record in theMLB, you have to consider how long
they've been keeping track of things likethat in the MLB, and just marveled
that there's anybody out there that couldbreak any of these records. Shout out
to Jose Miranda, shout out tothe Twins, and they are. There's

(01:21:28):
still six games back from the Guardians, closing in here on the All Star
break. It still got a lotof time, and they could get one
back to this afternoon because they're onshortly. They begin shortly after the show
is off. Twins and Astros closedout the series this afternoon, about ten
minutes after we go off the airdown at Targetfield. Yeah, it should
be good here for the Twins toget kind of keep the momentum rolling as

(01:21:50):
they're going to announce the All Starreserves and pitchers tonight and next week.
A couple of decent couple of decentopponents here as we head into the All
Star and like you said, theyonly sit six games out, and Miranda
is on quite a role. Imean he's gone from an injury ridden sophomore
slump to an All Star candidate andbasically half a season. I mean he's

(01:22:12):
played in about seventy games and he'shitting about three hundred, and he's got
about an eight to fifty ops andhe's really really playing well. This is
the player that a lot of fansexpected after his breakout twenty twenty one season
in the minor leagues. So ifyou could just add him to Buckston and
to Lewis when he gets back,and this lineup really is potent. I

(01:22:36):
agree Byron Buckson's been hot lately,Carlos Koreo has been awesome, Jose Miranda's
obviously been hot. I think thisTwins team has their best baseball ahead of
them heading into October. Hopefully theycan take us on another final ride throughout
the playoffs. But this ride isalmost over. One more segment to go

(01:22:57):
on Worst case Scenario for the week, and Brett, like Moore, have
the polls change. Yeah, Brettyour winner for fan favor this week?
What's the Scenario? We will playthe ill fated What's the Scenario to close
out the show. Final segment ofworst case Scenario for the week? Coming

(01:23:17):
at you next on the the finaleof a worst case scenario for the week.

(01:23:41):
No worries or maybe a lot moreworries, because we'll be back,
same time, same place next week, closing out the show with our fan
favorite segment. A listener voted segment. We each presented a topic and the
listeners voted and they want to playWhat the Scenario? A game that I

(01:24:01):
created essentially as a vehicle just toespouse my crazy NFL theories over the upcoming
year. Which hasn't happened yet stillgot still time gives to carry out Kirk
Cousins. I'm just saying. I'mjust saying it could finish the story.
It could still happen. We'll seeif it happens. But I have a

(01:24:25):
couple of scenarios, a couple ofhypotheticals to throw it at you guys and
the lovely listeners out there, andI want to I'm curious to see what
your reactions are. I got alist here. I want to start with
