Speaker 2 (00:24):
What time is the on the mark he's got a rehearsal.
I'm thinking I would assume it's gonna have to be
early in the show.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
We can't move the picks segment. That's very true. Can't
move Gerby, No, can't touch Gerby. It's very very true.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Unfortunately, by the way, it is worth pointing out that
the Minnesota timberls and links were sold for less money
than the twins. We're asking, yes, I mean, that's a
good way to put it. That's and again that was
three years ago when the deal was consummated, but it's
still it's mind boggling what a miscalculation that was, or
(01:02):
how I guess you want to look at it differently,
how generous Glenn Taylor was to a Rod and Mark
Lourie despite the fact that the relationship broke down pretty badly.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Also reminded by a listener and I looked this up.
It's true.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Adam Thielen told us on our show one of his
weekly appearances that he had ankle surgery on a high
ankle spray. Now his story was a little bit more
complicated than that, and he had told us that at
the time. This was in twenty twenty one, so he's
still with this club and he tried to play through
(01:40):
a high ankle spring tough guy that was suffered that
year on December five. He returns three weeks later against
the Rams, aggravates the injury when he's tackled low and
so at that point, now, I don't know if it
will find out next time we talk to him if
this was the so called tightrope surgery.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
And how long it held him out.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
But in that case, there was a two step process
where he tried to play through it and it got aggravated.
So I guess what I'm saying is the damage when
by the time they did the surgery might have been
greater than just what we classified.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
As a high ankle spring.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
I don't know, but it's worthy of the check in
was one of my orthopedic surgeon's source. We'll see what yeah,
they know about the tightrope A tightrope procedure, how controversial it?
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Just do this right now. Was any chance, by the way,
before we get to uh inbox, that.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
KOC and JJ are playing chess while we're playing checkers,
and this is just all setting up for a big,
stunning announcement late in the week. JJ McCarthy is ready.
He's moving around like we've never seen him move around before,
and he will be ready to start against the Philadelphia
Eagles on Sunday. I don't don't either. I don't, but
(02:58):
we could press the next day and a year wouldn't
be the first time we've been flummoxed. It's true, by
the way, to be accurate, speaking of getting ahead of
my skis, he hasn't been out six weeks, as I
mentioned at the start of the show, which you corrected
me on. But I actually tried to count up the
(03:19):
number of days as of today he has been sidelined.
I got it thirty two days sideline, so that's four
weeks and change. One could say we are on week
five with no indication that he's going to be ready
by the end of this week, which means we're going
to be into week six at the earliest. And even
now that might again not be his fault because of
(03:41):
the Thursday game. But I still feel like it seems
this is lengthier than we thought it was going to be,
especially when you hear the comments that we're hearing from
the head coach and from the quarterback. Tough guy quarterback himself.
How's the inbox looking solid? We'll probably the two segments.
I think we got to stay ahead for Alec Louis.
(04:01):
That's a good point, so remind people we're doing it. Now,
get a couple out of the way, and then come
back and do some more.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
It's time for a doctor.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Letters usually every Thursday, right around four thirty a little
earlier today. JG ATKFA dot com. If you'd like to join,
Dear Doctor Dan, can you help me put it into
this endless speculation about the quarterback position. Please let everyone
know I'm more than happy to take a red shirt
this season. Last year was my year zero anyway, so
(04:36):
this is really just my first year I'll just show
with my new baby and catch you all next season.
That from Jay McCarthy another red shirt.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Well, I mean.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Again, how many red shirt seasons did Ay roga before
he started playing before he replaced far.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Feels like three? They gets three? How about Jay Love
feels like three?
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Gets Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I don't think we want to see it go that
long here, But I'm just telling you.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
If the Vikings beat the Eagles and Wentz.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Plays creditably or better, they'll start on Thursday, regardless of
it being a short week. And if they beat the
Chargers in LA and Wentz plays creditably, I think he'll
play when they when they meet Detroit.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Or I think you said that games in Detroit. It
is I really do.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
I think you just play this out and I know
that's not the intent, and I get it. I got
people texting going, well, when is he going to get
all this experience that we say we need? The truth
is you worry about that later? This is a winning
lead now again, if they lose the next two or
they just keep kind of meandering along and they're really
on the edges of the playoff chase, it will actually
(05:53):
be easier to throw them in there and say sink
or swim, but don't worry because we know you need experience.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
And where we don't.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Really have as much to play for this year as
we thought or as we did a year ago. The
sad part is we've got a lot of We got
a lot of mcgobo's who, whether they want to admit
it or not, are cheering for Wentz to fail and
for the Vikings to lose.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
They're so obsessed with I gotta see him right now.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I waited so long that they, I think, would rather
the Vikings lose so that it will be an easier
transition to let McCarthy out there and.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Just let him make his mistakes. And maybe that's what
we're going to be eventually. Anyway, it's time for our
doctor sandbox.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Okay, no, there's a few. Yeah, it's a seat I thought,
and now to see with a line in it for
like sense.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Well, somebody is texting us he is the third highest paid.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Coach in foot in college football. That makes sense, that possible.
I'm sure Kirby Smart's probably and day that was the
afforded this guy.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
That's it. But anyway, go ahead, Well this is.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
From someone who was supposed to be on the show,
but sent a letter in even before they knew that
they weren't going to be on the show, which I
think is interesting.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
To Dear doctor Dan.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Can someone please explain the sudden obsession with Jay McCarthy.
Did we all collectively forget our franchise's proud tradition of
welcoming veteran quarterbacks Like their guest stars on The Simpsons,
they show up for a season, drop a few dimes.
Playoff results may vary, and then vanish into a mist
of syndication, trivia answers, and compensatory draft picks. See Wentz
(07:34):
is definitely on brand. He's practically begging to be added
to our pantheon style all of cameos who started playoff
games alongside S. Darnold ce Keenum two thousand and nine,
B five, Jay, George R. Cunningham, Will Moon, J McMahon,
and me the original limited series QB who had to
cross the border to do so. Our drafted qbs fare
(07:55):
differently as if they're either made of glass, D call Pepper, T.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Bridgewater, T.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Crame Yeah, or less popular than a poll added target
field that would be T.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Jackson or C. Ponder.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
So I ask you, Doctor Dan, if Ce Wentz had
been born in Minnesota, would fans be welcoming our newest
guest star or would they still be holding out hope
for a young gun.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
To break the curse? Sincerely, S. Salisbury.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Well, this is a theory that has been advanced by
Carson Wentz fans right and North Dakota fans that this
is a sort of a there's this condescending air that
Minnesota people have about anybody who.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Hails from that state.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I think there might be a little defensiveness there, a
little paranoia there, but I also think maybe there's something
to it. I don't know, but I think it's it's
not all that complicated to understand, even if we are
trying to convince people out of it a little bit
or to talk them off. The ledge human nature is
(08:59):
what if you're a foot more than you can argue
anything but perhaps getting to the super Bowl?
Speaker 3 (09:07):
What is your dream?
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Your dream is believing that you can invest in a
young franchise quarterback. And that was the promise of this season.
That's how it was billed. The Vikings were the ones
billing it, and so I get some of the the
frustration and impatience because we have been as s. Salisbury
(09:31):
points out, by the way, unavailable today, maybe tomorrow, maybe
next week.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
We'll see how that goes. But that that it's frustrating.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
As Joe Maher said, as Bill Garon has said, everybody
on our SoundBite, on our sound bar. But I think
that's what it is here. It's like I don't want
to keep waiting. I keep you keep holding a good time,
and they just won a couple of games, so you
have to wake this thing out. So I, deep down,
doctor Dan understands the frustration. I don't understand people having
(10:03):
difficulty comprehending why we would say, well.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Once once, super circumstances intrude.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
You can't ignore them, you know, because he hasn't been available.
He wasn't available at all last season, and he has
been barely available this season and is unlikely to play
for at least the next two games.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
I'm going to give away some money and maybe when
we come back, I'll give you some tightrope surgery analytics
or tightrope surgery info from inside sources.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah, not with the vikings, right, I'll make that clear.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
The fan of two men and a junk truck want
to give you a shot to win bonus bucks with
our National Cash Contest. The keyword for the four o'clock
hour today is grand. Go to KFA dot com and
enter the keyword grand.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
And the Sun's out.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Wonder if that means anything for Sunday?
Speaker 3 (11:17):
All right, bumping and bumper back, don't forget.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
We expect to visit with Alec Lewis later this hour
get his I guess sense of what is happening at
the quarterback position among many other important issues, because there
are other issues for this team above and beyond that.
Lavelle is scheduled for five point thirty today. The Thursday
(11:41):
night game tonight, I believe is a raj isn't it
Steelers at Cinci? It is, yes, Steelers at Cincinnati. So
I mean you want to Has there ever been a
game then in Fashion Football League history that is matched
as the starter's two older quarterbacks? Has that been already established?
Speaker 1 (12:00):
I don't know about specifically if it's been established, But
somebody on Pittsburgh while a rodg was talking yesterday, ran
by him and started calling it the Icy Hot Bowl.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Yes, I heard about that. Yeah, pretty good. Well, you
know what Here's what's interesting. Did you watch much of
that briefing with a RODJ a little bit of it.
He's a different man, I think, you know, the most
of the pretentiousness. Yeah, the defensiveness is gone because he's
he's being lauded again. The team's off to it. You know,
they haven't won anything, but they're off to a nice start.
(12:32):
And four and one h they're not asking him to,
you know, to throw seventy five times a game, which
is smart. They're using their ground game. He's using Metcalf brilliantly.
That that match, that chemistry between those two, I think
is further proof that if you're a really good receiver
and a really good quarterback, you'll find your chemistry right.
(12:53):
And the ball's going to the right place and he
just sounds. In fact, there are a couple of microphones
that were added late. One of him was slipping off
the dais and or off the podium whatever, any kind
of grabbed to kind of help out. Here to a
ROJ helping out, helping the jackals. All of a sudden,
he's just transformed. It's amazing. But anyway, you know what,
(13:17):
we could have had him.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
We didn't need him. We didn't need him.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
You got the kid from Michigan, believe me. I want
to be wrong, even for this season. I want to
be wrong, but I don't think I'm gonna be I
I don't know, man, I just now again we've had
other issues.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
By the way, where's Aaron Jones in his rehab? Do
we know where he is? I haven't heard anything about
a Jones?
Speaker 2 (13:40):
No, but he wasn't he is? He still is? He is?
He still got more time to sit. I think he does.
Ok yeah, double check with Alex, but I think he does. Yeah,
that's an old check.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
All right.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
We got some more inbox items to get to. So
break at forty two?
Speaker 3 (13:56):
No break, gotcha? Okay, fair enough for a doctor.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Box. Does a knocker know about tightrope surgery? I'm sure
he does everything. Do you want my oh yeah, get
that in you you have orthopedic sources? Correct that you
asked a way in on this. To give us a
little background, I'll just read you the exchange. First five,
I said, what do you know about ankle tightrope surgery?
(14:24):
His response was, is JJ getting one? I'm like, no,
not yet, said when someone brought it up, I'd never
heard of it. He said, for a high high grade
ankle spraining, the idea being you put in a fixed,
strong suture to hold the bones together, which is what
the sindusmosis does normally send us moses tearor is a
high ankle sprain. The hope is to allow it to
(14:45):
heal with less tension on it, and therefore you can
heal quicker. Usually you would get a stressed ankle x
ray and only consider it if the two bones open
and stressed. So we don't know what the x ray showed,
whether it was even correct, he was even eligible for
this kind of proceed correct, And he said, recovery's still
going to be a minimum of a few weeks. I said,
so if you want to rush back maybe quicker, you
(15:06):
would do that as opposed to whatever JJ's doing now.
He says, yes, but I would have done it a
few weeks ago, and I said, yeah, that's what we
were talking about.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Should have started my titrope surgery earlier.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yes, but if he didn't open up on a stress
x ray, it would not have been indicated.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
They wouldn't have thought to do it.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
And he says, they probably did do a stress X ray,
So I said, they just deemed that it would not
be necessary, and he said, correct, that's what That's why
they wouldn't do it, because they wouldn't have deemed it necessary.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Okay, that's good. He's good background. Yeah he's good. Yeah,
he's sure.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Dear doctor Dan, we are reaching out to distinguished alumni
of IU asking for a donation into the annual fund.
Despite having Mark Cuban involved. I just emptied out everything
with my new contract. Help make I you great again?
See Signetti. I thought I was gonna be from c cronin.
(15:57):
She's probably donated, she probably has money. Well, here's doctor
Dan's dilemma today. In all honesty, do I, as a
former instant retch, as a former editor in chief of
the Indiana Daily Student, or as Bob Night used to
call it, the Daily Dissident, can I, in good conscience,
(16:20):
as good as the whole Indiana's football stories, become donate
to that program knowing that the editor in chief, the
guy has the same job I did, has been fired
by some big shot.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I think in the media school, they didn't have the
school journalism anymore. Now it's the Media school, of course.
Because the editor refused to agree to their terms on
what would be included in these special editions, print editions
of the Daily Student. Now, the organization we've quoted early
(16:59):
on often called Fire, which I think does as good
a job as any in the country, as being an
equal opportunity, as being equal opportunity, vigilant when it comes
to either the left or the right, trying to take
our freedom away when it comes to speech. Is on
top of this thing and is asking all kinds of
questions itself. Doctor Dan is efforting with his few remaining
(17:23):
I use sources.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Is there more to the story that we're missing?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Is there some piece that hasn't yet been reported because
it looks really bad? And so how do I, in
good conscience, even though one thing you can argue it
has nothing new to the other, how do I donate
to anything at any university until we get to the
bottom of why one of the great historically accomplished student
newspapers in this country is being muzzled.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Something has to change, and I you, I'm ready to
go demonstrate.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
You know what Mace would tell you. You're just looking for
a reason not to donate. You're just being cheap, that's
what Mace. I'm not saying that. Yeah, no, I'm not
saying that. That you're just looking for an easy way.
You never write the check. You never would. But Mace,
I think, would say that there's no question.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
So that's a long way. Let's say I'm not going
to do it. Let's be honest.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
May Well, it's how I had to bring it up somehow,
and this was actually gave me the perfect opening to
do it. Let's be clear, Mace is not the guy
I'm going to go to when it comes to standing
tall for student newspapers, any newspapers, quite frankly, but especially
strong newspapers.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
I love the Daily State. I'm sure you loved did
he said you love that one? Probably? What's the name
of the golfer publication? I can't remember. Minnesota Daily Daily?
You want to tell you, guestling there.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
The best Minnesota Daily nugget is that Aaron Gleman was
rejected like ten times.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Seriously, He's never accepted Minnesota, so that he's got that chip.
But that's why Gleman's got the chip.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
On his shoulder. And I love that.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
It's tremendous. I love that I told him story years ago,
right the I got a letter out of nowhere. This
was when I was still writing h A letter of
apology from the editor at the Minnesota Daily co signed
by a reporter, a sports reporter, and they were apologizing
because in I don't remember what the subject of the
(19:14):
story was. I'm guessing it was a Gopher rip Who
knows what it would have been. He had stolen a
lot of my material, like, had stolen individual lines out
of it, and was trying to do the maya culpa.
We apologized this was unprofessional. Our our reporter has been
sanctioned bla blah blah, which I really appreciated because I
(19:35):
didn't even know about it. I wouldn't have even known
about it. But yeah, that was my experience with the
with the Minnesota Daily stealing my material at the Daily?
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Who knew?
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Yeah, who knew? Was it Mason Rips? You might have
appreciated it. You might have liked that, which.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Is probably why I never made a big deal of
it or never said I want that person's head on
a platter, and I just kind.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Of let it go. Let's do one more here.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Oh No, as far as I know, A texture is
asking whether Pete Hegseth might be running the media school
at Indiana University. As far as I know, he has
no impact there. But go ahead, you're saying, dear doctor.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Dan, I was just taking a quick vacation of the
Black Hills on a fine mea weekend.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
I mean, our baseball season's over.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
I decided to stop at some of the great sites,
like the bad Lands National Park in Mount Rushmore. To
my surprise, not all of the buildings and places were
open because of the government shutdown. We went in to
see an inferior project, but still had to pay full
price to get in. I'm not sure about this business model,
doctor Dan. Jay Polack guy, that's brilliant. That's really well played,
(20:47):
very well played.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Who was it? Oh? Who was on? It was Softy?
Did you hear Softie's rant? No?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
I know Ga.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Yesterday he's on with.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Pa and the one thing he's saying, and he's talking
about Seattle ownership and he's lauding them for you know,
spending and committing and doing all the things that fans
clamor for an owner to do. And fortunately PA picked
up on it and said, well, you're gonna get letters
(21:20):
and texts and emails from people in Minnesota listening to
this thing, thanking you, applauding you, because if you if
that's particular message resonates anywhere. It absolutely resonates here for
all the reasons laid out in that particular text or
that particular letter.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
All right, let's pause. All right, let's pause. We'll be back.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Don't forget alec Lewis later this hour and Lavelle at
about five thirty six five, one guy writes that Seattle's
(22:04):
payroll is only too many hours more than the twins,
so they are just better. Maybe he was referring to
another team. I was walking and listening. He was ranting
about owners who are committed to the bit that much
I do know, And perhaps he was referring to another club.
I'm not exactly sure. Maybe he meant committed in other ways.
(22:26):
Hard to say, Uh, Hendo in Minneapolis, Wow, mislea Daily
must have been really scraping the bottom of the barrel
to resort to stealing Dan's rips. Wow, that's that seems
a bit chilly. H John and Shockape. You might you
(22:47):
might relate to this question with what we've have seen
from j Jay in his eight quarters? Is it proof
that he knew the defensive plays in college Floor's yours?
You've been the guy all over that I said, I
hope they did their due diligence on it.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
That's what I said consistently.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Why don't you guys call the mail clink big knocker
about the tightrope surgery. You could never stroke his ego enough,
even if he already can't fit through a doorway. Wow,
what's with the negativity today?
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Text line? Don't you mentioned it? The sun's coming out.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
It's looking a little nicer seventy tomorrow, So are you
gonna have to deal with rain tomorrow night?
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Warmer temperatures? But rain? Or is that change? That forecast
changed too?
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Tomorrow night? They say it's going to be mostly clear.
What's a little around fifty so forty chance to rain
tomorrow morning?
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (23:36):
But then clearing the sun comes up and we got
Huntington Bank Stadium has the best drainage in football, doesn't it?
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Outstanding?
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Drinks very good drainage, rains. It takes fifteen minutes to drive.
We cannot have a game in which we are required
to run. We're not mutters right now at this point
that we are. We're not muttered by the way. Did
we blow it on the Nebraska running back? Who's one
of us? I thought, I read that he didn't really
get any offers till really late and Nebraska offline late
(24:04):
and he took it, and he took it, and it
wasn't like that Minnesota didn't, but a bunch of other
schools didn't either. Late bloomer just to swing and a
miss or how good is he?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
He's really good.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
I'd say he's a late bloomer in high school and
a late bloomer in college because he's been there for
a while and wasn't seeing much of the field.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Now he is. He's really good. Do you agree with this? Six?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
One two guy suggests these are the top three most
famous athletes in Minnesota history. One Kirby Pucket, Yeah. Two
Kevin Garnett. Three Vikings backup quarterback any era plays perfectly
with the subject today pretty close. There's something to it.
(24:46):
At various times those individuals became celebrated here. Remember Wade Wilson,
the late great Wade Wilson was a backup QB, viewed
as just a backup QB, and then when he took
off in eighty seven, the team that made it to
the NFC title game and had a chance to at
least tie that game. Late Wilson Whiskey was the quarterback.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
He was the guy. So we have had a lot
of experience with that going all the way back at
least that far. It's pretty much my entire life as
a Vikings fan.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
That's true, from the mid eighties till now.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
It's pretty much been my life.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
I don't know if this was intended as a Doctor
Dan entry from five oh seven. Guy, Dear doctor Dan,
