Speaker 2 (05:43):
No, no, we'll well, we'll just handle candy. That's always
what else were going to do.

wander the neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
You gotta do it.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
Yeah, I can't see you guys.

Speaker 5 (05:55):

Speaker 2 (06:18):
But he's just like he's just gonna handle it.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:20):
Yeah, that Press twenty twenty six IIA Jeff World Junior Championship.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Thank you, get your tickets. Now let's have some fun.
That'd be great. Hockey people excited, excite.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
There's also a lot of buzz surrounding the Mega Millions jack,
but that's because it is sword to seven hundred and
fourteen million dollars next drawing tomorrow night the cash option.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
It's about three thirty four before the lucky numbers.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Are drawn tomorrow A lottery players will have a chance
to strike it rich and tonight's powerball drawing that's estimated
three hundred and fifty eight million dollars out of wet
your whistle.

Speaker 6 (06:55):
Well, either way, the guys that rob the louver are
going to have to try to win the power Ball
or the make of millions now because they got busted.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
So they're not going to get to sell those jobs
they got took.

Speaker 6 (07:06):
They took a crack at one hundred milie now and
they for what a week?

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Had it? Yeah? Dummies?

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Did they get the stuff back?

Speaker 3 (07:15):
I assume so, but I haven't looked that part up.

Speaker 7 (07:16):
Here trying to go ponn it and that's how they
got busted.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
One guy was trying to get to like Algeria.

Speaker 6 (07:20):
One guy was going through Charles Degaulla Airport in France
and got busted at the old passport line.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
Were they did they? Like?

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Were they so surprised they got away with it? They
didn't have to get away planned?

Speaker 2 (07:31):
What the hell?

Speaker 10 (07:31):
Well?

Speaker 6 (07:31):
And that's what I'm really that's what I'm met about
is last week. Last week, I was like, tip of
the cap. I'm so proud of you guys. But again,
this would be like this would be like Leonardo da
Vinci painting some masterpiece and then taking a dump on it.
You got to finish the project, right, You got to
land in the plane well, Dwight Hockey would, But no,

(07:56):
you can't have a masterpiece heist if you don't get
away with it. Getting away with it for a week
does not count. No fantastic job, good start, got out
of there.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
But if you don't get away, you don't get that money.
What do you have?

Speaker 6 (08:10):
You have nothing? Now you have jail time. Pull your
hands up. Did they ever find the Pokemon card?

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Guys? Remember that bustle? Did they ever find that? I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
I have a ghost of memory. I know we've talked
about like four times. I think they did.

Speaker 6 (08:26):
Either way, my guess is the investigation for the Pokemon
heist a little less intense than the move maybe, which
again that's part of the strategy. Is will the police
give up because they stopped carrying?

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (08:39):
Could you imagine it actually saying the sentence I gotta
lay low man after the Pokemon.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
I mean, hey, money's money. Some of those are worth
a lot of money.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
It's on a safe house, just.

Speaker 5 (08:51):
A crock pot party. I would sit on these cards.

Speaker 6 (08:54):
I did see on CNN dot com that they did
use DNA to track these people, so I don't know
where they got the DNA they must.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Have DNA.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
Back.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Hey, come on back, kil.

Speaker 6 (09:10):
To take a look at the venus de Milo. She
doesn't even have arms. No, anyway, that sucks that they
didn't get away. Yeah, well, get away with it, Yeah,
get away with it.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Surveys show that one in four Americans say they have
lived in a haunted house. In fact, twenty three percent
say they currently have a residant ghost.

Speaker 11 (09:29):
Science does not support the existence of ghosts, but many
people will port lingering energy after death, cold spots, unexplained noises,
even pets acting strangely. If you're selling paranormal activity does
not legally have to be revealed, but in most states
death does. Nerd Wallet says a ghost in the house
can lower its value up to twenty five percent, but

(09:50):
it can raise the value if a ghost is someone famous.
That is, if ghosts even exist. I'm pre Tennis Dallas.

Speaker 5 (09:57):
Turnwallet No, no, no, herd wallet. Turn wallet's your dad's website.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Do you know that?

Speaker 3 (10:06):
I don't either.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
When I was different in prison, when I lived downtown,
the condo I lived in had a spooky wizard that
would visit me at night.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
Yeah, you told you told us about that.

Speaker 5 (10:17):
Zack stayed and watched Muppy one weekend and he saw
it too. Really, yeah, it's a spooky wizard.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
Speaky wizard.

Speaker 7 (10:24):
I'm pretty sure our house on Elm Street when I
grew up over you know, a TNA when I grew up.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure there lived on Elm Street. That's yeah.

Speaker 7 (10:31):
But there was just like there was just always something
really spooky about the house, especially if you're by yourself,
and of course you know you're a little kid, but whatever,
I there there was something there.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
And I know a woman died in that house before
we moved. Yeah, I know.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
I know Corey's face is twisting right now.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
But I'm a true believer that I one hundred percent
there are haunted spirits out there.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
There are spirits out there.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
Whether they're gonna haunt you or not, I don't know,
but I I have thankfully not been in.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
A home that has been haunted. Paul, your hands up.

Speaker 5 (11:00):
The woman that died in the house Musk was at
Woodhawk before or after the death?

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Before? Before? Yeah, okay, because the other way would be
gross that.

Speaker 7 (11:09):
It would be awesome to be molested by a ghost.
I mean really, just you wake up and all of a sudden,
You're like, hey, what's going on?

Speaker 6 (11:16):
Right must we weren't going to do this, but this
is officially now an intervention.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah, no, I you need help.

Speaker 5 (11:21):
The guy that I lived with, the Beezer, he claims
once that he had sex with a ghost.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
That's awesome.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
Yeah, that's a good haunting.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
Yeah, that's the country story.

Speaker 5 (11:32):
Well, at least he tells it. He said that, Yeah,
this ghost showed up in his room one night. They
made love and then the ghost left. He had sex
with the ghost.

Speaker 7 (11:42):
That he was hiding his masturbation, right, probably, no, Ma,
there's this ghost here.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Yeah? No, man, you know it's so fun games. So
there's a bunch of little ghosts, pain, ghost support, Yeah,
dead beat, dead.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
Well played.

Speaker 6 (12:07):
That sounds like a sitcom idea. Just a ghost who
isn't taking care of his ghost kids.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's going to need to be on Comedy Central.

Speaker 6 (12:14):
Or like Adult Swim. Yeah, Sunday Night. It's basically beat
terrible parenting.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Researchers are warning about pain and medical issues coming from
excessive smartphone use. What's called tech neck is a stranger
holds their head forward for a long periods of time.

Speaker 6 (12:37):
I've had that, remember, he hurt his neck reading Jim
Harbaugh tweet.

Speaker 5 (12:43):
Rumors, you were so locked down to Twitter for an
entire day because you thought maybe the Vikings were going
to hire Harbor that you hurt your neck.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
And it was pain for weeks, right.

Speaker 5 (12:54):
So much so that Abbott's buddy over at somewhere in
I forgot where it was, but Abbot's minards. Next surgeon
guy had to like, he had to squeak me sure, Yeah,
he works some minards.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Yeah, Abbit doesn't have the best guys insurance. Yeah, he
stuck me in and helped me out.

Speaker 5 (13:13):
It was hideous. I know that I'm the boy you
cried Wolf. That's the worst pain I've ever been in.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
That was awful. I just love the idea.

Speaker 6 (13:21):
I just I really wish you had gone to somebody
that didn't know what you did for a living, because
you just walked in and the doctor said, all right,
so Paul, what are you dealing with really really bad
neck pain?

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Well when did you when did you start feeling this pain?

Speaker 10 (13:36):
Well?

Speaker 6 (13:36):
Three days ago, I spent ten hours monitoring the Jim
Harbaugh situation on my phone, and I couldn't put Twitter down.

Speaker 3 (13:43):
And now my necker, well.

Speaker 5 (13:44):
Doctor and all started with an Adam Schefter tweet yep, yep.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Ten hours of twitter.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
You remember the story though, it was the that was
the third doctor you'd scene, because the first two just
said I can't.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
I can't help you, brother, I can't.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
We don't have a sho enough.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
What do you expect your neck to do?

Speaker 3 (14:01):
Correct?

Speaker 2 (14:02):
And give that neck a break? Man.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
So tech next a serious problem. It's a big deal
for sure.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Let me see you at the end of the store here.
What do I do with it? There was a there
was an end of the story, I promise, but I
get all.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
Did you guys ever get into those tech decks, the
little skateboarders finger skateboard things?

Speaker 11 (14:24):
No?

Speaker 10 (14:25):
I never.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
I still don't understand those.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
People don't develop early on set spinal degeneration made some
the issues that could last a lifetime if they're not
careful of the story.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
So, if I understand this correctly, you actually developed this
like little bone spur on your on your vertebrae from
like looking down like that.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Yeah, gives you like the turtle neck look.

Speaker 6 (14:47):
So eventually you are going to be a hunchback. Yeah no,
he said, He goes, uh, I can't wait. You're uh,
what's it called? When they taking this h X ray
the X your neck. He was like, it's not bad,
but it's it's on its way out. Like you gotta

(15:07):
stop it sitting like this.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
It's your origin.

Speaker 5 (15:09):
So for about two months I would I would sit
on my phone with two pillows.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Under my arms like this. And now I'm just back
to this. So my head's gonna fall off. Can you
take ozempic just for your head? Man?

Speaker 5 (15:21):
I talked about this a couple of weeks ago. I
would take ozempic. I just don't want to. I'm afraid
of a shot. I don't want to give myself a shot.
I heard it's not that bad.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
It's really not that bad. I do it all the time. Yeah,
it's so easy.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
You guys are tough. Nah, not really except than you think.
Thank you, Ben, it's very kind of you.

Speaker 6 (15:42):
But again, can't stop now, and he started my sentence right, Yeah,
don't you want to maintain a base if you look
like a cake pop like once just said, Yeah, head's
not gonna lose any weight.

Speaker 3 (15:54):
So if you get.

Speaker 5 (15:55):
Super skinny, it's gonna colla.

Speaker 3 (15:57):
And I did. At one point I lost seventy five
pounds and seventy.

Speaker 5 (15:59):
Five and passed out in front of Al's Breakfast and
peede my pasts.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
It's a true st sent me my pounds.

Speaker 5 (16:06):
My dad called me and said, hey, let's celebrate by
going to Al's Breakfast. We walked in. I go, Dad,
I think I'm going to pass out. He looked at
me and goes, are you just looking for attention? And
I go, no, I'm going to pass out. I passed
out in the middle of four Street on your pants,
just myself. He stayed in and had breakfast because he's
known me for forty years.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
I thought I was making it on what else?

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Listen, Yeah, listen, I'm fifty four years old, and so
this is not a great sacrifice. But I would willingly
give one of my testicles to see footage of that. Yeah, same,
I would if China has a footage of that.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 6 (16:39):
And speaking of that sauce famously, what about a year ago,
when did you fall on your porch?

Speaker 3 (16:45):
Was that last year? It was right before Christmas?

Speaker 6 (16:47):
Yeah, and we have that infamous ring cam right of
sauce falling hilarious, And of course the SoundBite we play
all the time that.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
Christ is currently are looking for twenty twenty four.

Speaker 6 (16:54):
Okay, so last December you slipped and fell on your porch.
It was the video that rocked the internet for at
least forty.

Speaker 3 (16:59):
Eight hours and rocked the concrete.

Speaker 6 (17:02):
Uh, we need your guy, Dave, Wyn Jim's help, Chris
and Sauce. So I'll tell these fellows what happened because.

Speaker 3 (17:10):
This video, it happened in a casino.

Speaker 6 (17:12):
This video exists, so you just need the right person
to find it.

Speaker 5 (17:16):
Friday, after I hit the jackpot, I said to myself,
I go, well, now I have to get hammered. So
I wandered over found myself a high noon. I hadn't
taken a sip of it yet, and I walked into
the sports book and you know the there's those two stairs.
I stead stud I stood on the first step and

(17:38):
my foot came out and I fell and hit the ground.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
All my stuff whenever he was.

Speaker 5 (17:44):
Just laid there, missed this step, I missed the second step.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
Then my foot also slipped out from under me. It
was just like that. I can't help myself all the time.

Speaker 5 (17:55):
He just crashed and crashed again.

Speaker 6 (17:58):
Like we have to get that security footage of you
falling down the steps anybody help it?

Speaker 3 (18:03):
Just nobody helped. Nobody noticed.

Speaker 6 (18:05):
Do you know about what time that was? I mean,
how how close to the exact minute could you get?
If we reached out to Windjaman said, can you pull
the security footage from.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
I would get it was about twelve fifteen.

Speaker 6 (18:17):
I wonder if legally if they can even do that
because there's probably people in the background.

Speaker 5 (18:20):
I don't want to be there exactly that, don't want
to be man, but it we could figure it out.

Speaker 6 (18:27):
Can they zoom in so it's just you? Yeah, so
nobody else in the video. It hurt real bad.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
I can't imagine.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Yeah, I was stone cold sober.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Did you lay there for a minute?

Speaker 3 (18:38):
Yeah, of course, I'm like, how am I going to
get up? Was it?

Speaker 6 (18:41):
Was it your instinct to yell for your nine month
pregnant wife to come help you, even though.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
She was not in that city? No?

Speaker 5 (18:47):
But yeah that was not the best thing I did
when I yelled for Kelly after I fell.

Speaker 6 (18:52):
Walking is not your strong No, it is not, or
talking or next strength tech nek for sure.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
Sports is next.

Speaker 6 (19:02):
We'll ask Ben about the Minnesota Vikings and whatnot and
the Packers, and we'll talk to us about some other sports.
Who knows whatever Sauce wants to do, it's his segment
that's next on the Power Trip. Won't need to you
on the fan.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
All right, welcome back to to Fort Sure there we are,
must be Den Leber cast one thousands.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Here we are.

Speaker 3 (19:28):
Let's get right in some sports.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
It's time for a fan five on the Power Trip.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Yeah, presented by All Around your timber Tech deck building contractor.

Speaker 5 (19:39):
We'll get to the Vikings who play the Lions on
Sunday at noon. Pregame at ten, Your Lions are eight
and a half point favorites.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
The Gophers.

Speaker 5 (19:48):
They got blown out forty one to three by the
hands of Iowa Saturday. The Gophers had a total of
one hundred and thirty three yards. They've been outscored one
hundred and ten to twenty on the road. But they
get to battle off full Michigan State on Saturday at
two thirty.

Speaker 3 (20:02):
Pregame at twelve thirty. Your Gophers are four and a
half point favorites.

Speaker 7 (20:07):
He guys got two really good games for those watch parties,
good man. Yeah, yep. That Thursday night game. Having to
stay for the whole game was awful.

Speaker 4 (20:18):
Let me ask let me ask you guys this then,
because you guys are paying attention just as much as
I am, I'll ask both muss And and Saucer there
if you could have if you could fix one thing,
or if there's one major concern for our Minnesota Vikings, what.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
Is it.

Speaker 7 (20:36):
Based off the last game? Yeah, I'm just too many.
I mean there's just well, I mean the whole take
the whole season. It's the defense. I think the defense
just has has issues. I think they're leaky in a
lot of spots. I think that the guys that they
brought in to stop the run aren't doing that. Because
you know, we were lucky that we didn't have to
face O Mari and Hampton.

Speaker 5 (20:55):
He would have run all over us. And there's just
the pass rush. Grenard can only do so much. And
I'm not just saying that because he's on the show.
He gives one hundred and fifty percent on every play.
No one else gets any pass rush and any and
you know what's his face even hurts.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
A couple of weeks ago, just stood back there.

Speaker 5 (21:16):
And and and Herbert stood back there, and then when
he didn't have to, he just ran right up the
middle and got fifteen yards of carry.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
The defense against the run is really bad.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
You can't stop the.

Speaker 7 (21:26):
Run when you got a third stringer who's going for
one hundred and eleven yards on you. I mean also
over the deep middle man this defense and this is
not just this year based even last year.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
Deep middle you can hit us for big yards.

Speaker 5 (21:40):
Yeah, I mean, we get what we think is a
pick six, right, yeah, change, it's going to change the
whole thing. It's coach catch and then it's you know,
it's reversed. It's third and thirteen. All right, fine, we'll
get the momentum back. Nope, they give that third and
thirteen up right away and you're on the field for
forty minutes. Steal too long. And that's the other issue.

(22:02):
The offense can't convert. They can't keep drives going. So
I think it's a total system kind of thing. The
more you think about.

Speaker 7 (22:09):
It, yeah, I did not, honest, I think it's both sides.
The interior, which we thought going into this season is.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Like whoa, this is all right.

Speaker 7 (22:17):
We've beefed up the defensive interior and then we got
the three offensive linemen. Okay, here we go, And so
far both sides have really not produced.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
Yeah, Well, the unfortunate part about the about the line
play is like offensively, we can say, well, injuries, right,
I think I think that that is a that's not
just an excuse. That's the storyline, right, That was the
storyline going in to the THURSDA Night game, because listen,
the Chargers are facing the same situation. Like the Chargers

(22:51):
issues were sort of a mirror image of what we
were dealing with as well. When you're analyzing the game
and where they're at and in their season and injuries.
When you know, if injury here there, you know you
got like an injured corner, then an injured receiver and an
indurury and running back like that, that happens. But when
the whole line is injured, right, the whole unit is injured,

(23:12):
that's that's that's not an excuse, that's a real.

Speaker 7 (23:14):
Issue's going to switch positions in game.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
Right, So I will one hundred percent give us some
leeway and some grace on that. But defensively, defensively, yeah,
like we don't have that excuse.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
So I'm with you, Sauce, I think, and everybody.

Speaker 7 (23:32):
Goes with the Van Ginkel thing, and again, I just
you can't just say one player is going to make
that big of a difference. Now, he is going to
make a big difference when he's playing and he's healthy,
there's no doubt between he and Grenard. But one player
should not make that big of an impact. And also
I'm saying it's like a deficit to you.

Speaker 5 (23:51):
Yeah, but when his backup, who you paid a lot
to get moved up a lot to get sure, isn't
doing anything that's not good either. They get pass rushed
from one side of the field.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
That's it.

Speaker 7 (24:04):
Well, that's the problems that it's You keep hearing that
next man up, next man up, Well, the next man up,
ain't that great?

Speaker 3 (24:11):
You know what.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
Kind of depresses me as how much we could use
cam Binman Harrison Phillips right now.

Speaker 3 (24:18):
Yeah, yeah, they could really use cam.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
And Harrison Phillips too, Yeah, I mean right.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
Yeah when they traded that was a little weird. Yeah.
And Wilson Phillips. Pull your hands up. All the members
of Wilson Phillips, especially Carney Wilson.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
Ladies. I like them, How do you like them? I
like them? Healthy?

Speaker 3 (24:38):
Ben?

Speaker 6 (24:38):
Do you believe that Will Reicherd has hit one wire?
Two wires? Or zero wires.

Speaker 4 (24:45):
I'm not as convinced on the second one going that
happened Thursday, but I feel like I just need to
see better footage. There has to be better footage. Everything
I've seen on on X it just it's too grainy.
I can't tell. I feel like it does take a
weird deviation in its flight path, like it just doesn't.

(25:09):
That's an anomaly that doesn't happen on a normal flight path.
So I would say I'm iffy on that one, but
for sure the first miss that hit the wire.

Speaker 6 (25:18):
The most frustrating thing about the second one is like
I was in the camp, I'm like, this has got
to be an optical illusion on the first one, because
why weren't like Reiker and O'Connell losing their minds right, Like, well,
how did everybody miss it?

Speaker 3 (25:30):
Except for Twitter? That was my logic. I didn't.

Speaker 6 (25:33):
Obviously it takes a really weird turn. But I'm like,
why wouldn't they be losing their minds if it I
obviously hit the wire. Let's just say it did, Okay,
and it sounds like it probably did. How is the
NFL not looking into other ways to make sure this
never happens?

Speaker 3 (25:49):
Again, like they got to figure out, how.

Speaker 6 (25:51):
Can the wire ever even remotely be in play on
a field goal? It shouldn't be anywhere near correct the
possibility of a kick correct anywhere.

Speaker 7 (26:00):
Have we heard of any other kicker or any other
team that has hit the wire?

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Well, and here's the thing that I was thinking about
this the other day. I've never heard of a ball
hitting the wire on a punt, So they're obviously getting
it out of the way, you know what I mean. Yeah,
I know that the camera wasn't necessarily in the way,
but the wires because of the very nature of how
they're strapped to the stadium, but somehow they find a
way to keep them out of the way of every

(26:26):
punt that's ever been kicked.

Speaker 6 (26:27):
But whether it's in season, I would argue it should
be immediate, especially if that if the NFL truly knew
that the one in was it London? Yes, yeah, the
one in London truly did hit a wire and they
were like, oh, cracticing hit the wire? Shouldn't the next
week they should have immediately changed their protocol for those
cam systems.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
But if they don't, I would say end of the
year for sure.

Speaker 6 (26:50):
We have to completely revamp how we figure this out
and where those things are placed and when they move
and where they move. I mean kind of preposterous that
it's potentially happened twice. The first time is ridiculous. Second time,
it's preposterous. I'm in your camp, though, Cory.

Speaker 7 (27:06):
With the fact that there was no reaction whatsoever from
Reikert or from koc or anybody on the field or
on the sidelines.

Speaker 6 (27:16):
No reaction whatso much is really strange or even in
the stands right right.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
It wasn't like there were.

Speaker 6 (27:21):
Half the crowd, the Vikings fans pointing going like that
hit the wire, Like nobody said anything, but then it
blew up on Twitter.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
That was the way. I was very skeptical that it
actually hit the wire.

Speaker 7 (27:31):
Yeah, the very people that have the highest focus on
that particular plate didn't see it.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
That ball, didn't see it on the nuts.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
Yeah, I don't think it happened. That doesn't mean it didn't.

Speaker 6 (27:40):
If it did, it's still egregious that it happened potentially
a second time. I just don't understand why the wires
are even on that side of the field.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
When somebody's kicking a.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Field, they should they should not be on the play side.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
Nope, nope, get better cameras, zoom in on your phone.
You just hit the two x, yeah, right, hit the
old two X from the other side of the field
and watched the ball.

Speaker 4 (27:59):
Well, and the other thing is on a kick. You
don't even need to zoom in. No, it's better to
have the wide angle anyway, well said, I don't know,
and they gotta figured out. All right, that was mostly
Vikings news.

Speaker 6 (28:11):
Should we just say that was our friends at Radco
right there, and then do sports when we get packed,
because basically.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
Vikings stuffing about the Vikings. I got all kinds of stuff.

Speaker 6 (28:20):
Bet Levers here, Michael Jamus and the third is here.
This is the Power Trip, won't you?

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Good morning everybody, Power Morns Show on Monday seven for three,

Seco.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
Here we are.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
And ladies and gentlemen, it's time for a little bit
of that Vikings news. You reco Radco. We talked a
lot of Vikings in the last segment as well, but
there's plenty more to be said.

Speaker 6 (28:56):
Yeah, we didn't mention one semi depressing recurr theme of
Adrian Peterson getting arrested again for a DUI and he
went unlawfully carrying a weapon.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
Dude just can't stay out of his own way. Yeah, sucks.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Arrest in Texas on Sunday morning charged with d w
I and unlawful carrying of a weapon. Also arrested for
d w I in April after a Vikings Rack party
in Minnesota.

Speaker 4 (29:18):
That sucks, it sure does. Yeah, what is he eligible
for the Hall of Fame?

Speaker 3 (29:25):
I think this year? Is that? This year? Next year?

Speaker 2 (29:27):
This year? Sorry? Sorry, gott put this down.

Speaker 10 (29:32):

I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
I don't know what's going on. God, I'm luckily I
didn't have that tucked into my waistband like I normally do.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Is he still going to fight that guy from the
poker Please? Don't hawks like fighting.

Speaker 6 (29:46):
He got into a brawl at that poker game, and
then like a week later, those two guys announced that
we're gonna do some celebrity boxing match.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
Remember who's gonna watch it? I don't know, I remember.

Speaker 6 (29:55):
Remember Adrian didn't Adrian claim that they are kind of
friends or something that they get along.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
You don't fight anybody but your friends.

Speaker 6 (30:01):
He just snapped, and that's how we were throwing fish
through a pokeron.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
Sometimes you gotta settle it.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
Yeah, I guess you just gotta settle this.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
Sometimes it's got to be settled.

Speaker 4 (30:09):
Ben, Look listen, I don't I don't claim to be
a fighter by any means, but were you guys a
little surprised that he kind of got his ass kicked
in that little.

Speaker 6 (30:16):
Bra of course, Adrian against a random you, I mean,
a blind choice you got?

Speaker 3 (30:22):
Yeah, Rambo? Did he tie the head? Bad? Let's as
was the fight.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
Goes through? For boding twenty eight?

Speaker 3 (30:37):

I don't. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (31:43):
Jimmy Allen White's fan.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
He just looks like he was a booger eater as
a kid something.

Speaker 5 (31:48):
There are just some people that you look here sitting
next to a former booger eater, so careful.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, great former or current? Dat believe?
Please don't yeah, please don't say Like if you went to.

Speaker 6 (32:03):
Croctober Fest last week and there was a crock pot
full of boogers that his monster of a wife dresses
Dolly part and put together, would.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
You dabble or not? No? Probably not?

Speaker 6 (32:11):
But if they had like ritz crackers next to the
boogers so you could kind of mix him?

Speaker 3 (32:15):
No, but I would eat call your booger.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
I have no idea your.

Speaker 3 (32:20):
Great.

Speaker 5 (32:21):
When was the last time, actually, I mean it was
probably a while ago.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
Did any girls that eat boogers? No? Probably never knew one,
did you know? No?

Speaker 2 (32:32):
I never Let me tell you why? They're the good ones?

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Wait, the ones that are willing to.

Speaker 6 (32:41):
I wonder why you just said it's been a while.
Can you define how long it's been?

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Got him I got him.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
Yeah what calendar? You're twenty twenty five? No, probably at
least like ten years so as an adult, Oh yeah,
for sure, yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
Post COVID not don't please, don't talk to me about that.
Don't say it again.

Speaker 6 (33:11):
May you've not done it since COVID because you have
long form COVID and you've lost the taste for boogers.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Oh god, please stop.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
No, so last ten years though, probably? Yeah? Maybe probably purpose.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
You can lie about this, you know, yeah, you can.
You can lie about this. You could say I've never
done it.

Speaker 7 (33:27):
Please stop you yard sale and you eat your boogers,
You're not going to.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
Get home in the house is going to be empty.

Speaker 3 (33:33):
You you're forty three? Forty two or forty three? How
OLIU me? Yeah, we're talking about you. Forty three. You're
forty three.

Speaker 6 (33:43):
So you would bet one hundred thousand dollars that you
have eaten a booger since thirty three years older?

Speaker 3 (33:48):
Beyond? Yes?

Speaker 5 (33:49):
Problem, my god? Oh lord, but you know there can't
be it. Probably No, I'm sure I have. You're sure
you have? Do that?

Speaker 3 (33:56):
Stop yet? Why? I don't know? Man, I'm falling apart.
Don't admit it.

Speaker 6 (34:01):
Take it and flicking it is.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
Hey, we've been there, done that, eating at his next level.

Speaker 2 (34:08):
Would you kind of stop please?

Speaker 3 (34:09):
I'm so crossed out.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
I am too.

Speaker 4 (34:11):
There really is nothing I could like try a whole
bunch of different weird foods and all this other stuff.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
The thought of eating a bogger good break. It makes
my stomach break. Oh god, I mean, that's it. We're
going to be a little bit when you do that.
You know, gross? Is this share.

Speaker 6 (34:37):
It's you're sharing with us? Apparently too much? I wonder
if Kel knows that she married a booger eater. I mean,
is your your mother in law is still listening right?

Speaker 3 (34:46):
Oh? Probably, yeah, while she is right now for like
thirty five years.

Speaker 5 (34:52):
So when you started, Yeah, back in my origin story's ankle,
I saw that live.

Speaker 6 (35:02):
Dude, that's grosser that injury, or saw seeden boggera.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
Bogs all day long?

Speaker 2 (35:07):
That was one of those that's so bad?

Speaker 7 (35:08):
Why did they show the replay of it?

Speaker 2 (35:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (35:12):
I had when his teammate runs over to pick him
up and he just points at it and the guy's like,
oh cool, and Jackson Dart felt so bad.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
It was a hit drag, wasn't it?

Speaker 5 (35:26):
It?

Speaker 2 (35:26):
Really looked like one.

Speaker 10 (35:27):
Was it?

Speaker 3 (35:28):
I don't know, that's what I read.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
It looked like one.

Speaker 3 (35:31):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (35:31):
I don't know that they call that as much anymore.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
I don't think it was called it was. I think
it's just one of those.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
Football plays that just happens. It wasn't egregious. It wasn't
like a big time horse collar where he drug him
from behind.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Was it broker and dislocated or both?

Speaker 4 (35:45):
I mean, I guess we'll find out. I mean it
was dislocated for sure. He was going to see if
he like broke the end of his tibiaate or something.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
Isn't it weird? Like how easy it is for that
to happen? Like it?

Speaker 1 (35:55):
It looked like, I mean, you know, those are two
very big guys going in different directions, and that happens
stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
But it just looked like snap, yep.

Speaker 7 (36:03):
How do you not pass out though? When you look
down at your own leg and it's making a shot?

Speaker 2 (36:07):
Right?

Speaker 3 (36:07):
Right?

Speaker 6 (36:07):
I mean, just like, well, you got to build up
a tolerance for the gross, right like, for example, don't
do it?

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Please?

Speaker 3 (36:14):
You gotta stop.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
My bonuses? Rest? Okay?

Speaker 4 (36:19):
Hold on, hold on, John Cam'skataboo one hundred percent booger eater.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
Okay, he's doing three months. What are you gonna do
if you see it, You're not gonna, you know, attack him.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
He probably just in the locker room, just shyly, like turning.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
On his shoulder. He actually seems like the guy that
would pick his nose talk the other this is not
booger talk.

Speaker 5 (36:51):
Two plays before that injury, the uh I think it
was wasn't what and Iron Eagle were like talking about
how Gataboo and Starter on top of the world.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
They're going to Yankees games.

Speaker 5 (37:03):
They showed Scataboo made like the front page of the
New York Times, and then two plays later completely changed
life comes out to fast Man.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Yeah, what he's going to walk like Abbott What.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
That's not nice. He goes from hip dragon to foot drag.
That's terrible, just nervous.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
Anyway.

Speaker 6 (37:28):
Benjamin on ESPN, which is the entertainment in sports prerotament,
in sports programming, maybe network, who knows, I'm working on it.
They were just debating whether or not Drake may is
the best quarterback from last year's class.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
Your thoughts out of.

Speaker 6 (37:47):
Caleb Williams Jaden Daniels, Drake May, what do we got,
Michael Pennix, JJ McCarthy box your thoughts.

Speaker 4 (37:52):
I would say, yeah, yeah, I mean get anybody between
he and bo Nicks.

Speaker 3 (37:59):
I mean Drake is out, Yeah, definitely the definitely the
top two. I mean Jayden when.

Speaker 4 (38:03):
He's healthy and yeah, when he's healthy and all that stuff.
And you know, Caleb's just kind of figuring out still,
I mean French. Uh and I think there's there's hope
for Pennox and McCarthy, but obviously McCarthy we haven't seen
more than eight quarters, so uh yeah, and I think
that he's definitely found It is about fit as well, right,

(38:26):
I think that he, Josh McDaniels, knows how to utilize
a player like that and give him to play efficiently.
So maybe if he's in a system that's you know,
like Michael Penox is in, maybe it's different. I don't know,
but the proofs in the pudding and he's killing it
right now.

Speaker 5 (38:43):
What a turnaround by the Patriots. I know they were
the laughing stock last year. Now they lead the division.

Speaker 4 (38:48):
But again that's the thing like that we all hold
on this hope, every one of these teams that we
have up there, these players that we're talking about, Caleb Daniels,
Drake Pennix, McCarthy, Nicks, every one of the teams that
they're associated with have the same the same hope that
this one guy, one guy can change the outlook of

(39:09):
our whole franchise.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
Yep, and so do we and so do we.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
We just haven't seen it yet. Yeah, they tried to
get that guy though, That's what we hear well.

Speaker 6 (39:19):
And that's also the sixty four thousand other question that
we may never know the truth too, is if you
tried everything you could because Drake may was your guy,
then did they settle with JJ McCarthy or did they
truly think he.

Speaker 5 (39:31):
Was just one notch lower you know what I mean?
And even deeper. They also tried to take those picks
that they had, including the pick in this year's draft,
try and get Justin Herbert. They offered them three first
round picks for him, and the Chargers said, no, probably smart.
Oh yeah, but yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:48):
He looked great the other man. I'll tell you what, Yep.

Speaker 5 (39:50):
I'm a huge fan of him, even though he gave
me neck technaic.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Yeah, he gave me technak yea, I bet I asked
this off the during the end of the night. But
I'll ask gown there some people can hear you answer
when you're watching the Chargers, is it tug your heart
at all?

Speaker 2 (40:05):
I mean, is that yeah? I mean that's the team
that brought you in the league, gave you a shot.

Speaker 4 (40:10):
All that jazz, yeah, I mean, especially those old school
jerseys they're wearing. I mean, I you know, I remember
wearing those kind of throwback jerseys. They It's different because
it's a different stadium. You know, if we were in
San Diego. If like if we flew into San Diego
and we're staying you know, kind of you know, wherever
whatever hotel where they're downtown or kind of a Mission

(40:30):
Valley or something like that, and we're staying close to
Qualcom and we walked into Qualcom, I mean, for sure,
it would be a way different feel. But you know,
being the fact that we're in this brand new stadium
and all this other stuff, it just it doesn't feel
like there's a connection. But there's certainly, like quite a
few people that are still over there. Like you know,
when we walked into the bowels of this of the
of the stadium, you know, there's a guy named Chuck

(40:52):
that's been around forever and he's a sort of you know,
he's sort of the the guy that does everything behind
the scenes and he he's been working with the Chargers
for a long time. The Duddy Brothers, when one's the
equipment manager, one guy works in video. I see those guys,
you know on the sidelines. Gen rojas Is that is
like one of the Communications Slash alumni people.

Speaker 2 (41:15):
She was there when I was there, so I just
met up with her.

Speaker 3 (41:17):
I'm like, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
Nick Hardwicke, former player, he's offensive line coach, assistant offensive
line coach. Got a chance to see him, and then
you know, Rodney Harrison gets he gets introduced during the
game as being introduced in their hall the Ring of Honor.
You know, I've played with him, he was one of
my teammates. Still see him when he does Sunday Night
Football and stuff. So there's a lot of you know,
Gates was out there. I played with Gatesy, So like

(41:41):
there are a lot of people that are still associated
with that franchise. That, yeah, it is. It is a
little like tugs at the heartstrings a little bit.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
Speaking of Gatesy, did you see his name involved in
the h illegal.

Speaker 9 (41:54):
Card game situation, Antonio Gates was Yeah, So here's my question.

Speaker 1 (41:59):
Tied in Tenio Gates hosted and played in a rigged
poker game in Miami.

Speaker 6 (42:03):
All right, If you just said hosted, then that has
me concerned because here's here's the deal. And this is
I think in the last AMPLI day since this came out.
It is not illegal to play in a high stakes
poker game in any way.

Speaker 10 (42:13):
Right.

Speaker 6 (42:14):
What makes it illegal is the house taking a cut. Right,
That's then it turns into a casino. It's a rake,
so you could play for nosebleed stakes. Right, then the
fix is the is the whole nother level, right, It's
it would be illegal if we all got together and
then whoever's house was hosting it started taking a five
percent cut or a ten percent cut. So if Gates

(42:35):
or Billups or whoever was doing that already, that's illegal.
But now you're talking about a rigged game that's taken
a rake, and now we're on a whole nother level.
Now it's this is and the mob ties and stuff.

Speaker 3 (42:46):
This is just a mess.

Speaker 2 (42:47):
Yeah, here's what it says.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
In Pro Football Talk, Pablo Tory reports that Hall of
Fame titan Antonio Gates hosted and played in a rigged
poker game in Miami, and then at the bottom of
the story it says he has not yet been accused
of any wrongdoing or named in any federal court.

Speaker 6 (43:00):
That's gonna be tough. Like, you know what, Garnett's name
popped up a couple of days ago, and one tweet
I don't know, I haven't followed up on this. One
tweet was like KG played in one of those games. Well, Mike, okay,
playing in one of those games is very different than
knowing it's rigged or being the house. Yeah, it's not
illegal to show up and play a game. It's illegal

(43:20):
to host the game, take a rag, and of course
to rig the game. So, uh, you know, everybody's trying
to break stories and be first. I would just say
make sure we know exactly their role before you start
throwing names out right. So, because and I don't know
what the follow up is, maybe KG was part of
the bait, right, It sounds like that's what Billups was

(43:41):
was he was the name. Let's go play against Chelsey
Billups and take his money. He can't be good at cards. Well,
it can be if it's rigged. Yeah, man, Yeah, scary stuff.

Speaker 2 (43:50):
It's gonna get weirder.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
Yeah, the bloodhounds are out looking for blood. Yeah right, Muslin. Absolutely,
you're not talking because your name is gonna be one
of these lessons.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Yeah, it's a little on there.

Speaker 7 (44:04):
And I always play it up that I don't like
to gamble, I know, yeah, but I like to. You're
the guy with the rake, Yes, I love Raken talk.

Speaker 3 (44:13):
Can we talk Gamba when we come back for a second.
I have a gambling take I'd like to throw out
when we get back.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
Sure, I mean, Sauce has got a problem.

Speaker 6 (44:22):
So it's it's actually the exact opposite. That's what I
wanted to bring up that right now, Sauce is a
statistical anomaly.

Speaker 3 (44:31):
It's insane.

Speaker 5 (44:33):
Uh more The Power Trip Morning Show after this on
the Fan
