It's a shame.

Speaker 5 (01:27):
Hurt me.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
Shits four than one snap. Rosner rolls out to the right.
He's in trouble.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
He's gonna throw the ball up and it's patched up.
Awful decision. Five minutes Crozner and this is going to
be a defensive touchdown. It's the same good stuff in
ven Man.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
It's a shame to day elbow most shine and the shame.

Speaker 4 (01:55):
Third and fourteen from the Seattle forty three. There they
rushed four man teen rom checks down right plant Aaron
Jones I fucked him left of a thirty five hit
at the forty.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
He dropped the ball.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
Aaron Jones dropped the ball in front of the Vikings
bench out aft that I mean it looks like Seattle
recovers the bubble. In nineteen zero Seattle a minute ten
and County go first and ten from the Seattle forty
five Max and Roldbor play actions, great drop, good protection,
throws over the middle, intercepted the over three.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Jamdale against Shame.

Speaker 4 (02:29):
The way m's around and the man it sucks down
its Xavior Scott to the left of Browser, who go
back to pass and he's gonna throw over the middle.
It bounces off the Viking and or Seahawk hand is
intercepted by Ernest Jones, the course having the day of

(02:50):

Fucking shame.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
Rose were second and six from the Seattle twenty eight
or Man rush Roseburgh Rose to Addison and to tenors
Steptic by Rieke Wolland and Harry Combs fifteen twenty hits
to the right.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
That's gonna do it the minis look at.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
Vikings have been shut out in the football game for
the first time since.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Two thousand and seven. Twenty six zero Seattle, What's.

Speaker 6 (03:26):
Now?

Speaker 2 (03:26):
What what did I do wrong? Personal foul clipping? This
old fashioned ass kicking our hearts and that's a fact.

Speaker 7 (03:45):
Big finish now boys, Big finish spinners.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
Get us into this nine to noon, on this Jillie
Monday at f M one hundred point three kf A
n welcome, the master mixer of the Monday Montage and
Eric nord Quista is the producer of nine to Now
the host of Vikings fan Line. And there was a
I mean some it was a shame related performance by

(04:08):
the Minnesota Vikings yesterday, you know yesterday in Seattle, Washington.
In Seattle, Washington, back up running back Xavier Scott carried
it three times for seventeen yards. He carried it three
times for seventeen yards.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
It's not bad.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
What's the point, Well, there isn't one, so it's pointless,
just like yesterday in Seattle. Get it a pointless performance
that absolutely is one of the very worst Minnesota Vikings
offensive performances. It's November eleventh of two thousand and seven
when they were shut out by the Green Bay Packers.

(04:46):
You can't talk like das slappy, pointless, appless decisions, high
end defensive performance that led Sam the man who used
to play on the fan, to a quasi game. Our
beloved Minnesota Vikings, are you cows, or are you bison?

(05:07):
Which one do you choose? There definitely is a storm
with which you are dealing. So are you cows who
run from the storm and delay the tumult, only to
get hit from behind, toppling off their hoofs and smashing
their cannon bones, stifles, and sensitive teeths. Or are you

(05:31):
have a bison who head right into the treacherous storm,
endore a shorter amount of consternation and calamity, and find
sunshine markedly sooner than the big fat cow head first
into this torrent, this blitzkrieg, this engulfment.

Speaker 8 (05:50):
Or.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
Running to the way too soon to ponder? Twenty twenty
six NFL Draft NFL Draft you said you see? Nine
to noon is a full service radio show where if
there are those of you casting your gaze the way
of April of twenty twenty seven, twenty twenty six, Oh,

(06:15):
the Minnesota Vikings draft picks go like this. Following a
fourth consecutive loss, it goes eleven forty two, seventy three,
ninety seven, one sixty two, two oh two, two twenty
six and.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
Two forty one.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
What's the point, Well, there isn't one pointless, Just like
the football team in Seattle, Washington yesterday.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Are you a cow or are you a ball?

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Are you gonna run away from the storm only to
have the hooves and the sensitive teeths top oled and
you just can't get up?

Speaker 2 (06:45):
We are you're going to be like a bison, a
run right into that thing. What's the point?

Speaker 4 (06:50):
Yeah, there really isn't one, but it's metaphorical to what's
transpiring with the Minnesota Vikings right now nine to noon,
full service radio show servicing cows, bisons, human beings and
everything in between. How much more can Vikings fans absorb?
I mean, what's next feeling leaving and catching huge passes

(07:14):
in big spots and helping the team win playoff games.
I'm sure that would go over really really well with
the with the dedicated Minnesota Vikings fan base, Brosmer or
the maroon and Gold of sky Yuma. Next thing we know,
the kid with the chill demeanor is throwing it to
super chickens who are running to the end zone. In

(07:37):
any game, that really was the only way the heavily
favored home team could score. There's a point there. There's
a point there. Like Training Camp twenty twenty four, Darnold
had no chance against Brian Flores defense, and miss cues
like that are the only way they could score touchdowns
until everybody got tired. Because funny, the time of possession

(07:59):
was a the lopsided variety. Again, how much more Canvikings
fans take four and eight pointless by the Puget sound
scoreless in Seattle? The deceased Paul Allen smiles from his grave,
and the non deceased Paul Allen crafts an opening segment

(08:21):
as if he were writing a script to a new
version of the movie. Saw gory, grotesque, and gut wrenching
talkbacks all throughout the show, calls to like fan line
does it? Eight hundred three cheers of everything when we
get to that have had it? Nordo got the fan
reaction prep race yesterday, and your announcer is equipped to

(08:43):
accept the slings and arrows of outrageous negatives, and all
talkbacks and or calls will be treated with kindness and
respect because we are you. And how much more can
we take Regarding the malfunction related status of the twenty

(09:04):
twenty five Minnesota Vikings, Well, you probably wonder what's next?
In the old diatrode now we have a feno for you,
fairness and nine to noon act.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
I wrote that.

Speaker 4 (09:23):
On a three hour flight from the Cappuccino Capital to
the cornfields, and then at somebody sit next to me
and we're getting all deep with the conversation and everything.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
So I'm like, that's cool. I get up early, all right.

Speaker 4 (09:40):
The rest of the radio show tomorrow, which is today,
wrote for an hour and fifteen minutes. Get save in
the old AOL machine, didn't save, tried to copy and paste,
screen went blank. An hour and fifteen minutes of writing dead.

(10:03):
You think of that, I mean, it only hurts me
when everybody else laughs, So please laugh, Please laugh, so
I can feel the pain of the slings and arrows
of the outrageous negatives and one liners that included Ron
Johnson catching a fan line related stray that tied into
Boston Celtics forward Jalen Brown.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
And on and on and on and on. It just
didn't save.

Speaker 4 (10:30):
What in the hell is happening right now outside of
Lumen sitting on a bus listening to fan line I
love fan line, I mean, and the strays the head
coach continues to catch. I mean, to a certain extent,
have some pragmatic value to them if you're really dig
into the context of what the dedicated fan line listeners

(10:52):
are saying. Until somebody gets pissed off at the work
or lack thereof done with Josh.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
I always love that one. That's when I'm out. That's
when I'm out. That's what I mean. That call was terrific.
It was great until that point, until all of.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
A sudden, it's like, and you know what, I'm still
pissed off at the lack of work done with Josh Dobbs.
I'm like, all right, Well, like I said, h kindness
and respect. Yeah, for all, including the host. I'm the
alive Paul Allen, the deceased Paul Allen is smiling somewhere

(11:31):
hopefully Heaven.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
Let's how about that. I mean, our fifteen minutes of
writing just dead. That's the I mean, the one of
the tough things out of that game. When you're talking
about pointless what about my crafting, it's I mean, it's
going to come back to you win or lose. I
love writing that dialogue and tying it together in common
thread like fashion.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
The host is apoplectic. Yeah, the host is saddened. The
ah the host is defeated on many, many levels. Personally
defeated because of L left or L left or L
lefter l with the football team and a bunch of
dear friends of mine not feeling really good about their

(12:16):
lots in life. Yeah, that happens to hit the host
quite hard. So then you crafted to maybe get some
smiles and provide a distraction factor for those who genuinely
care about that distraction factor for their crock pots and
their group and their gatherings and everything.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
On Sunday, Yeah, it's save. It doesn't save.

Speaker 4 (12:35):
Then the screen goes blank in an hour fifteen minutes
of writing. Is absolutely dead, all right, as they say
on noon to three, let's sing it, let's swing it.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
What's next? Well, I it's just it's interesting from fan
line last night. Honestly, somebody asked a question and for me,
I never I've never gotten to this point before. What
the sell is control Z? So I can't Yeah, I
mean there would be an undo after you delete something
and get hit that control Z and then I go
back to my desk and get back into it and

(13:05):
hit control Z. No as soon as you h as
soon as you logged out.

Speaker 4 (13:09):
Yeah, or yeah, it's over I mean Sue Cup manufacturing
Sue cup dot com and the analyst Pete, I'm to
manufacture a victory. It's ah, you know, Pete, it's uh.
The longest losing streak in the history of this team
is eight games. You were a coach on that team
when they snapped it October something, year of Our Lord

(13:32):
two thousand and two, when they beat the Lions. Yeah,
snapping an eight game losing streak. The win over two seasons.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
If we lose the final five games, that's a nine
game losing streak. That's brutal.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
That'd be a record. That'd be a Minnesota Vikings inadequate
related record.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
It'd be brutal.

Speaker 4 (13:48):
Right, Yeah, but that's all I can remember from the
analysts except recommending if he gets down and dirty and
does the Eye in the sky on YouTube, Pete versus
five to six for your search bar pleasure. Maybe the
progression and or maturation of Dallas Turner can be a focus. Yeah,

(14:08):
there was a line somewhere in there that the demise
of Dallas Turner may have been greatly exaggerated. See it's
all coming back now, No, it's not all coming back.
It was four pages and the suckerate it, you lucky suckers.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
All right, so was wing it? Yeah, I guess, I
guess we'll wing it. Yeah, boy, that's gonna be good.
That really wins at a high level. Well, I got
I got a question last night.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
During fan line that I think maybe God was protecting
me and us because there might have been some things
in there that didn't necessarily need to be spouted into
this microphone.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
I can't remember what they are, like one of them was.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
In all the times I've been on pregame sidelines for
Minnesota Vikings football games, and that's a lot of times. Yeah,
with respect those listening in Egan and New Jersey, don't
kill the messenger. I'm the announcer trying to make everybody,
including you smile. So perhaps the part that I wrote about,

(15:14):
you know, the first time in all the ventures of
Trape seeing sidelines two hours and fifteen minutes up to
about an hour and ten minutes before football games, I
didn't see a member of the Wilf family on the
sideline yesterday. So then I think from there it went

(15:36):
to maybe because of the super special tariffs, fuel prices
are astronomical and it's just not a pragmatic business decision,
flying from Jersey to Seattle, and they're pragmatic business people. Yeah,
maybe Thanksgiving leaked into the weekend. It's very possible didn't
see any of them. Yeah, And the next line was

(15:59):
the one that God probably chose to eliminate because it
may have been dicey for the future of nine to
Noon and yours truly in It was something like, if
if I'm within the walls of tco PC, I take notice.
I take notice when you don't see any of them
down there. Okay again, Yeah, I'm not interested in catching

(16:23):
a freaking stray from some family member that takes out
of context what nine to Noon is saying, because it
was written down perfectly for a dialogue. Yeah, and then
now I'm spitballing.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
You're taking your own stuff out of context, take them
own stuff out of context. And then all of a sudden,
you get with big bosses and the announcers on the
phone middle of a Monday, tired after a fourth consecutive
l trying to defend him on a dialogue that was
written and now it's gone. It's dead, and I'm not
making this up. What's the point?

Speaker 4 (16:56):
Well, unlike the first line, that was written on the
airplane last night until a long, long, dear friend sat
next to me and opened a vein it it that
was pointless. I mean the first line was pointless. Just
like the football team yesterday. This has a point that
the pros is dead. It's just dead, like the cow

(17:19):
running away from Look at that top of the head.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
Cows and bison, what are you gonna do?

Speaker 4 (17:24):
You're gonna run away from the storm and topple with
your big fat hooves just tasting the sky, and stifles
and cannon bones are cracked and the sensitive teats are aching.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
So that was that was written on the plane, or
that was this morning, and that was stream of consciousness.

Speaker 4 (17:38):
It was written on the plane, okay, which into my
laptop had saved. Yeah, into this piece of mother, bleeping mother,
it's here. Yeah, dead dad, I'm going to choose to
look at it this way. That God chose to eliminate
it because there were things in there that were not meant.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
To be said. Now to be set. And this is
not a joke, this is not a bit.

Speaker 4 (18:02):
The serendipity of it is that we are going to
take something bad that happened and we're gonna make we're
gonna have fun with it. Yeah, I mean I got
Corey Cove, I got that snot nosed kid looking through
the door laughing. I got Seahawk over there looking at
me laughing. I got Sauce dong More trying to hold
back a lap. Do they think it's funny? Yeah, hour
and fifteen minutes the morning after sitting on a bus

(18:24):
outside of looming Field with operations people for the Viking
screwing on the bus saying bus broke down. You'll have
to get off this bus, get your luggage and get
onto another bus.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
So yeah, I mean, of course, at least there wasn't
a mechanical. My seat was next to Taki taime Oni.
I always love that, and I couldn't get an arm rest.
I mean, I'm just kidding. It was comfortable. It's always comfortable.
The accommodations are always good.

Speaker 4 (18:51):
The Grand Hiaot was terrific, beautiful rooms overlooking the Puget Sound,
which is really what I'd like to jump into right
now now with some cinder blocks attached to my feet.
Why because an hour and fifteen minutes of what I
thought was well written, pros dead.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
It's what we're gonna do now. Well, I guess we're
gonna wing it today. We're going to wait a rap
here in a minute, we're going to weekend rap. We're
going to do the whole thing. Thank you Hoffman Heating
and kooling, and I mean, we have that in our heads.
We didn't need to write that down. We got eb
on the horizon, you know, the pointless vibe. I in
some ways, I don't think anything has changed, despite the

(19:28):
fourth loss in a row, despite bringing the kid in,
despite seeing what we saw yesterday, it's still Operation find
a Pulse with the kid QB. It's still Operation Find
a Pulse. There's special, it's it's a four win freaking team.

Speaker 4 (19:43):
I'm trying to tear you down now because my pros
is dead and I had some wonderful one liners in there.
So I'm going to stop it right now. Stop trying
to tear you down. Well, I'm feel better about myself.
I'm just trying to wing it. I'm just trying to
wing it as we continue to go off script. And
I just think getting back on script is the the
fact that how about if I just read what was
scripted five times, I think we'll get that up to

(20:05):
about nineteen minutes to the weekend wrap.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Well, I'd get us to it.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
I mean, talk about timber tech, bring in eb get
the Vikes bites, take some talkbacks, kick Versus in the
nuts and call it.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
A day and make it a marathon. I get a marathon.
Make it a marathon by Steve's appliances. Scored a touchdown
in two games. No, we haven't scored a touchdown in
two games. I think it's been eighteen years since we
saw the ineptitude we saw yesterday. Oh like, I don't know, Okay,
it's been eighteen years.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
I think it was wait, one hundred ninety four games,
wakes up and go back in the Twitter feeds. It
was me at PA on the mic who put that
on Twitter first yesterday, two hundred and ninety four games,
going to sit back and wing it. Well, I gay
you fools, go ahead and sit back and wing it.
I left you the wake math dustin a keen turn
of speed by nine to noon, and all the writing's dead.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
Yeah, all the writings dead, All the writings dead, all
the moments in the one liners. Yep. I wish I
would have heard the scripted version of that will for
related commentation Now we'll look at you compounding.

Speaker 4 (21:01):
I mean, seriously, you're trying to get grim into the
box box for the Commanders.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Why aren't the Oders there? I mean, I'd like to
know more. I'd like to get to the bottom of that.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
Now you got me looking at the wild schedule. Now
you got Mark Wilf looking at the Wild schedule to
wonder if Anthony Lapant is available at noon Sunday to
call the Commander's game. I mean, this is super special.
What's super special about it? The Commanders are next?

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Yeah? Yeah, the Commanders are next.

Speaker 4 (21:28):
You know, the three and nine team that's one in
six on the road and has lost seven consecutive games
that one and is favored by a point and a
half at us Bank Stadium. You know what else is special?
The Chicago Bears are atop the NFC North They are
why because of conference record over the La Rams, Oh,
the La Rams, who they lose to, well freaking panthers

(21:53):
courtesy of Hoffman Cooling and Heating and Hoffmanheating dot net.
Let's just go ahead and wing the weekend. Rat might
as well eat a sandwich during it, and we can
just all lose together.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
Rice is in the shotgun Cubas in the game.

Speaker 9 (22:06):
On thirty five five, Young takes the snap, Rams rushed four.
Young pre's a strike over the middle to Jalen Cocher
Hoostave have the forty nine yard line of Carolina. Ryce
delivers Cocher comps through Fucket.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
The third down Daggers, sealing it for the Panthers over
their rams.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
Yesterday, Pa, what am I supposed to say? Honestly, I
had three paragraphs written on this game. Now I got none.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
If it's on the teleprompter, he will say it.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
Scott Hendricks, the owner of Hoffman Cooling and Heating. God
chose that you are the beneficiary of me losing four
and a half pages of an hour fifteen minutes of writing,
because that means Hoffman Cooling and Heating probably gonna get
mentioned fifteen times. I'm not on the website right now,
but I thought I had a crafty little line written
about up to fifty six hundred dollars of a rebate

(22:58):
available for heating heating systems and the installation and all that.
And then there was like Grandma, the temps are dipping precipitously.
We care about you. Please, please get your furnace performance
check from Hoffmanheating dot Net to make sure the climate

(23:19):
is comfortable for you, Grandma, Hoffmanheating dot Net courtesy of them.
Is the weekend rap Carolina Panthers. We're happy for you.
They beat the La Rams. Are you serious? They won
a game at Lambeaufield? Are you serious? Seven and six
old Dave Canalis is doing good work down there. Adam
Thielen was catching astray in the pros that now is dead,

(23:41):
and I believe that stray was thelin used to play
for the Panthers must be super special. Sitting back watching
the crawl, trying to find scores from other games and seeing, hey,
my former team won at seventh game, and.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Sadly he had some time. He might have been able
to watch the game yesterday, given that he was a
head healthy scratch.

Speaker 4 (24:02):
Well, why's he got to catch another shot? What I mean, honestly,
you think this is easy for him?

Speaker 2 (24:06):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (24:07):
I don't thank you for thirty minutes on the plane
flight last night, and oh I love that him? Well yeah,
really you do? Okay, I mean you got him eighteen
negative one nine, Actually you don't.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
I came here with a big opinion and a big
opportunity to contribute to this offense, and we've seen not
a lot of snaps.

Speaker 4 (24:25):
One way to look at it. That's the one way
to look at it. Myriad ways to look at that.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
Now.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
I have a feeling we're going to be looking at
it more in depth a little later. Excellent. That's just
my opinion, mister Wilt. That's just my opinion. Weekend rap
Scott Hendricks Hoffman Cooling and Heating and what have we
got here weekend wrap? Oh yeah, the Sabers had the
oddacity to beat our favorite hockey team.

Speaker 10 (24:52):
Austlin will pick it up at center ice and carry in.
Noah Austlin left circles the health No it was back
into his four handy scores and the wild seven game
winning streak is over. Is Noah Austlin in his first
career NHL shootout attempt, beats Gustuson's sixth side, and the
Wild see a couple of one goal leads evaporate. The
Sabers get back in the wind column as Minnesota falls

(25:15):
three two in the shootout.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
Here at home with respect, I and we and the
deleted pros. They don't really care about that, you know why,
because on Friday. Yesper Volstat went stone henge on mccarr
and McKinnon in a shootout. And all we did at

(25:36):
Buffalo Wild Wings mall of America for the Friday football
was focus on that game because it was a heat check.
They were acid tested for glass. The con was in attendance,
and we beat them. We took two from super special
Mile High Roaches team. Then we played the next day

(25:57):
and we're all tired and we barely lost and everything,
and now we got mic Dizzle tomorrow night, like eight
o'clock on FM one hundred point three kfam.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
What was the atmosphere like in rang Cassino Arena. Oh,
it was unbelievable. I believe I watched it on TV.
It seemed like it was fantastic. Oh, it was a
Black Friday matine festival. Man just packed to the gills,
loud as bleep and with Valstat. Not that I'm an
elite net minding evaluating mind. Do you mean you played

(26:26):
goalie in soccer? Is that that's hockey on grass? Isn't
it that? The thing basically the same thing, the confidence
with which he plays as aggressive as he is.

Speaker 4 (26:35):
Man.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
I think they found a sweet one in yesper and
they play so hard in front of him. It sucks
that it had to go down to the wire the
way that it did. Right like you're trying to get out.
You want to take two and give none. But in
the shootout in particular, the ot just kind of winding there.
It always felt like it was going to a shootout.
But valstat so impressive. Boldie's having the season of a

(26:57):
freaking lifetime right now. Ninety seven is ninety seven. Things
are really running hot right now. For the while, I
like that, can you talk longer? I like that, Well,
it's the tough it's the tough to play up, the
play up and then the the let down where you
get those and you still get a point against the Sabers.
Of course you don't lose in regulation, but you just

(27:18):
now that the consistency of you have the super high
end of the high end opponent, and as many games
as you've won in a row, you're still staring way
up in the central at these abs. You go in,
you climb them out, and you get it done. You
get the two points and then you get you get
the l from the Sabers. Now I haven't followed the
Sabers maybe the Sabers aren't the Sabers, and I'm typically

(27:42):
I guess thinking of or presuming that are just an
absolute hideous operation. But it just feels bad that you
take the l after you do what you did against Colorado.

Speaker 4 (27:51):
Somebody in the NHL world knows with the Buffalo Sabers
put a body on Jilbert Perrot and you should be fine.
I always love that one. Don't let him get loose.
But at least we got a point out of that game.
We did get a point out of the game. Right,
did get a point?

Speaker 2 (28:04):
Yeah. Johnny the Mouse.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Nicholson, captain of the eighty three Wizeta Club hockey team,
A man who wore the sea. Johnny the Mouse is
nickname around Canterbury Park where he runs the TV department
is Hoiratiokaine. Why do I say that is because he
just texted me. I hate to say it, but the
writing's on the wall for this Vikings team. Good news
is the writing wasn't saved and got deleted.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
I got a couple of texts from people who know
you would love you. A couple of font size jokes
yep up in the mix that may have led to
it not being saved.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
Well, that's why it was four and a half pages.
For everybody else who's normal, it should have been a
page and a half. But when you're typing in fourteen
point font because you're fighting cheaters other month, a month
and a half from being aged sixty, that's just part
of the deal, you be otches.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
We can wrap Hoffman cooling and heating. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
The serendipity for Hoffman cooling and heating with the pros
eliminated after an hour fifteen minutes of crafting, is that
Hoffman cooling and heating might be mentioned one hundred times.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
I might you know what it's you want to roll
this around?

Speaker 4 (29:14):
No, you're you're in far too good of a mood
for me to sit across from you and see your smile.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
So you know what I'm gonna do.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Okay, I'm not going to stop talking until ten o'clock.
Oh goodness, and you can deal with the breaks? Oh please, okay,
so funny, Please don't do that.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
Why happened?

Speaker 4 (29:34):
I mean, seriously, you go ahead and send us to
break without me pointing at you, and and.

Speaker 2 (29:41):
There's really nobody else to put in that chair, so
I don't really well, the corner office RT. The corner
office is already mad at me about last night taking
fanline about twenty minutes longer than I was told to.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
The corner office should worry more about not having feeling
in one of his feet than how long you take
fan line.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
But the opinion still matters. That's fair, and he holds
the gavel. That's fair, boyings. So the less I have
to conduct meetings with in conversations with him, the better.
Today on a Monday of the four win team, all right,
where are we?

Speaker 5 (30:14):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (30:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (30:15):
PJ Fleck joins at ten forty five, and he's gonna
talk about this.

Speaker 8 (30:20):
Here's the last step. It's kneel down for my PJ stuff.
They did not need to snap again. There's the dash
to the end zone to the left. Rushawn Lawrence is
the first man there.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
Mirker Fox tho is in hand. It's stays where it belongs.

Speaker 5 (30:36):
In Minneapolis, Minnesota snow angels from the Gopher cheerleaders head
first dives by the Gopher players and Minnesota beats Wisconsin
seventeen to seven.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
After recognizing for the first time in many years of
calling Minnesota Vikings football games and subsequently trape scene sidelines
two hours before games and not noticing anybody from the
ownership groups group on the sideline and cracking wise. That
was Mike Grimm, undoubtedly, or play by play voice for
the Vikings and Washington Commanders this Sunday from US Bank Stadium.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
Bucks.

Speaker 4 (31:13):
All right, So PJ, PJ at ten forty five love
that they went undefeated at home. And I think I
had some pretty good stuff in there for PJ. But
God decided it wasn't good enough, so he eliminated it.
Now he's making nine to noon play off the cuffin
in wing it like fashion, and I'm never comfortable with that.

(31:35):
Somebody with whom we are very comfortable is Anthony Edwards.
He scored seventy one points over two consecutive games. And
the Minnesota Timberwolves are en route to New Orleans several
hours from now, a few hours from now, where they're
going to take on Zion tomorrow, and they'll do so

(31:57):
off a two game winning streak against Boston and Santonio.
Both those teams have winning records. So we've gotten over
that disease hump. Anthony Edwardes Edward's on a run got
the laon in the fold thirty plus for.

Speaker 2 (32:13):
The fifth straight gid, longest streak of his career, the
second longest in franchise history.

Speaker 4 (32:22):
Box, you don't know longest in franchise history until you're
describing a pointless effort for the first time in nearly
two decades in two hundred and ninety four games. And
then I got not those kids looking at me saying
do you know that's the first time. Yeah, I knew
it the middle of the third quarter when I freaking
put it on social media before everybody else, and they

(32:44):
stole it like they steal all of my stuff. Seriously, man, Now,
the Anthony Edwards's performance was very controversial.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Within the nine to noon covenant.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
You see in a less than shocking develop meant last
place con Artist upended first place funk Shui in the
well respected League Free. It's the greatest basketball fantasy basketball
league in the history of fantasy basketball, for it is
more than a quarter century old. The con Artist general

(33:18):
manager is Eric Nordquist. And after his last place team
the Khan beat my first place team funk Shui six
to two.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
He beat sg A and funk Shui.

Speaker 4 (33:30):
The general manager for the con Artist, Eric Nordquist, said
this to say, yeah.

Speaker 11 (33:34):
Frankly enough, sometimes you can overcoach well. This week was
about for the team known as con Artist. He's the
culmination of brotherhood and belief sick and tired of being
sick and tired. No matter what you and the media say,
the players in that locker room love each other through injury.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
It slow starts.

Speaker 11 (33:49):
I can only say so much before it's up to
Josh Hart to get those extra three or four triples
for his guys, for Paul George to actually played two.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Games in a row. He gets seven steels for his guys.

Speaker 11 (34:00):
McConnell and all those dimes, hurdle, fighting through his back,
get it for his guys, and just letting your best
players play. Edwards, Anthony Edwards, Jalen Brown, what they're doing
on the nightly basis, Are you kidding me? It's taught
me sometimes you just got to get out of the
way and let the players play.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Finally, it felt succession of the court. It's time to
carry that forward. It's goodwin on the coach shoes.

Speaker 4 (34:26):
That was fantastic. That was outstanding, mister general manager. And
I'm you know what, I don't like being on the
wrong end of something like that to a last place operation. However,
being a devote to league freak fan line, I just
got sick and tired of hearing people call up and
send talkbacks about how the general manager should be fires.

(34:47):
I always love that. I just got tired of it.
So congratulations, very well done. That's the weekend wrap, courtesy
of a Hoffman Cooling and Heating and Hoffmanheating dot net.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
What's next?

Speaker 4 (35:02):
I'd love to tell you, but it was eaten by
a computer about forty five minutes ago.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
So we did have some Vikes bites and we'd love
some talkbacks today too. We'd love that man absolutely who wouldn't.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
Yeah, Fikes bites around the corner order produces excellent job
with the montage, and I'm Paul Allen.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
This is your winging It leader. This is nine to noon.
It's the fan Welcome back nine to noon, and it's

(35:42):
time for Vikes Bites, which is always brought to you
by a Thousand Hills lifetime grazed grass fed beef. You
can shop online box some meat shows up at your
doorstep Coburn's Kowalski's locations as well local co ops and
they're proud sponsors of Gophers Athletics. Vikings lose. We know it,
first time they've been shut out in eighteen years. Twenty
six tripped the final yesterday. But versus all of the

(36:04):
things that we're going to be talking about over the
next day or so, there was a positive in the mix,
and that included the five total tackles, a couple of sacks,
a couple of fumble fumbles forced, including one picked up
by Jalen Redman, and just a tremendous day for Dallas
Turner with sacks in three straight games. You didn't hear
it last night on fan line, You'll hear it now.

(36:25):
Ben Lieber chatting with Dallas Turner after the game.

Speaker 3 (36:28):
Well, because into a performance like that, you are feeling
yourself out there and.

Speaker 12 (36:32):
A lot of hardworking, a lot of long weeks, you know,
a lot of coaching, a lot of meetings going into
stuff like that. You know, it's just executing big on Sundays.
So you know, that's probably just the main thing. Just
preparing the white right throughout the week and just knowing
your opponent of what to expect, and you know, just
executing when the when the Thomas card.

Speaker 3 (36:49):
You know, you guys, I think across the board all leven,
you guys on defense seem like you guys all have
to be versatile. You're all playing like different positions at
different times. So what is it like when you're trying
to learn the defense and there's a lot to this defense.
You guys are dropping sometimes, you guys are running stunts.
But when you flip flop from right to left, is
that a difficult transition to make? Especially endgame?

Speaker 2 (37:06):
Nah?

Speaker 12 (37:07):
I mean I feel like that just shows, like, you know,
just the type of cerebral players that we have on
this defense.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
You know, just playing out of position.

Speaker 12 (37:12):
I mean I woult to say out of position. You know,
that's just the standard here, you know, just playing what
we're called, you know, our assign you know, and the
scheme that we ran as a defense. You know, you
kind of have to have a cerebra mindset when it
comes to the game of football and just understanding, you know,
what we run as a defense and understanding what the
man next to you is doing because you might be
doing the same thing he doing, and uh, you know, honestly,
it's just the more more that we bond together, you know,
as a defense, and you know, we understand you know,

(37:33):
the system that, Uh, that coach floor is set up
for us. You know, we just keep on executing on Sundays,
you know, and just keep on doing our due diligence
and uh, you know, just keep on stacking every week.

Speaker 10 (37:42):
You know.

Speaker 3 (37:43):
Did you see confusion and their partner on the offensive
line as the game got going, especially even after that
that first series, you guys really had their number. Seemed
like they were pretty confused on what you guys were doing.

Speaker 12 (37:51):
I my my troop pie. I feel like they were
game planning for something else, but didn't really get what
they was game planning. But you know what I mean,
I feel like, you know, we caught some good players defense,
you know, to set people up to make plays and
stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (38:03):
And and we asked you what is it like to
be on the defensive side of the ball when you
guys are doing everything you can to keep the offense
and the whole team in this but things just aren't clicking?

Speaker 2 (38:13):
Like, how do you guys stay focused and stay stay
rising up to the challenge every time you guys go out.

Speaker 12 (38:18):
I mean, I feel like this is just another opportunity,
you know, just get closer with your teammates, you know,
just knowing the circumstances that were in as a team.
You know, I feel like it's just he is gonna
make a breaky, So you know, I feel like I
feel like we should send a lot of stuff up
right now, you know, heading the next season in the
future in general, you know, we still got a lot
of good guys on this defense. You know, we still
having fun at the defense. You know, it's still going
out there and playing and joining our time together. And

(38:39):
you know, honestly, I feel like, you know, you still
got you still got some a lot more ball up
to play.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
So you know, I asked the guys a question, same
question last week, and I'll ask you again, you know,
because this season just is gonna get tougher and tougher
as you guys are out of the playoff run, but
you still have games to play. What's the message you're
going to be for yourself and for the rest of
the team this week as you guys prepare for another game.

Speaker 12 (39:00):
I mean, you know, I mean I could just do
what I keep on doing, you know, just be the
energy you know some of our teammates, you know, just
try to be a glue and keep us together and uh,
you know, and honestly just you know, and and honestly
and honestly you know, and honestly just you know, just
trying to just keep us together. You know, we still
got a good group of guys on the defense and
stuff like that, and you know, honestly, you know, it's

(39:21):
it's definitely fun going in to work every day, you know,
with these guys. So you know, we're just trying to
just enjoy these next couple of weeks, regardless of the circumstances,
and you know, and just keep on getting better and
running our race.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
You know, I'm not sure how close you were with
Sam Donald last year, but what was it like when
you when you hit him a couple of times a.

Speaker 12 (39:36):
Man shout out say, you know I kind of said
thank you. I might have said thank you a couple
of times, but it's you know, uh, definitely no good
playing against Sam, you know, just seeing his growth, you
know from even from last season to this season. You know,
it's definitely still still growth.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
Uh. You know, You're still a hooper.

Speaker 12 (39:50):
You know, a lot of respect for that quarterback over
there on the other side, and you know, and just
hope to wish.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
And well awesome game man, congrats, appreciate it. Thank you.

Speaker 2 (39:58):
I mean down, let's tell the his plays. I mean,
I love you man.

Speaker 4 (40:01):
But Hooper, I mean, you knew you were going to
kill him from the minute the game came out on
the schedule.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
You started looking at the film.

Speaker 4 (40:09):
You know, when it comes to pressure pack situations like this,
he may not exactly be made for them. And Brian
Flores masterful game plan against Sam Darnold and Jackson Smith
and Jigba Flores and his defense. They did their part
to hamper Jackson Smith and Jigba's record setting season. I

(40:31):
mean just throttled him with whatever they were doing.

Speaker 2 (40:34):
Brian Flores a couple weeks in a row now, which
I think kind of amplifies the ire, absolute masterpiece game
plans both at Lambeau and then now yesterday at Lumen.
And the only thing, truly, I mean just the turnovers,
the turnovers and well, I mean, you get shut out,
you score six points, we know all of that, but

(40:55):
the turnovers leading into it. You can say, while the
defense only allowed nineteen, well you gave him the ball
five times. So do you think any of the circumstances
are momentum associated with those led to points? In their
own right, putting the defense in bad spots. So for me,
as I've watched, I've looked at Dallas Turner getting more reps,
and I'm still kind of questioning to myself, like, Okay,

(41:16):
you know, by truly by attrition, by numbers of snaps,
the statistics are going up. Can he truly change games?
I would say yesterday was his best game as a pro,
and he's creating kind of a routine. If this is
a habit, if this becomes normalcy for Dallas Turner, you
know another young guy we're talking about raising kids here.

(41:38):
I think on the defensive side, somebody that has a
chance into year three to really put a stamp on
this defense would be Dallas Turner. I've just over the
last few weeks, my face has changed on number fifteen. Well,
what I heard on fan line yesterday.

Speaker 4 (41:52):
Was eyebrow raising for me, eyebrows raising for a lot
of people, And it definitely caught my ear when Ron
Johnson mentioned he was at Viking's practice last week and
spent ninety minutes with Dallas Turner.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
Look what happened. I always loved that one.

Speaker 4 (42:09):
A defensive version of Marvin Harrison meets Reggie Wayne, maybe
next time you can spend some time with twelve.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Hey, I gotta I gotta ask though, just at a
base level. You know. It's one of those things with
fan line when Ron smiling, Ron love you, when he's rolling.
I just I just let it go. I just just
say what you need to be saying. You know, I said,
I'm never going to correct him or challenge him, just say,
say your thing. Is he even allowed to be around
Dallas Turner for ninety minutes at Vikings practice? Is that

(42:35):
even okay?

Speaker 4 (42:36):
When it comes to you know, just get out of
the way and just let him go. That's what Tony
Dungeye said on NBC last night. I always loved that one.
How did that work out?

Speaker 2 (42:48):
Okay? I didn't crap that one? That wasn't bad? That
was okay top of the head, wasn't it? Yeah? I
liked it? Made you laugh. See, I think that this
is this is a freeing moment for you. Sanscript Well,
I mean you're not taking it that way at this
particular point.

Speaker 4 (43:04):
No, I'm pissed off because I don't know what I
did wrong. I don't know what control control z is.
I got people blowing up my DMS and PA on
the mic about Google docs and auto saves, and.

Speaker 2 (43:15):
I have no idea.

Speaker 4 (43:17):
I know what a Google doc is, I don't know
how to find I don't care to find it. I've
gone I'm going to be sixty years of age in
a month, in a month, month and a week.

Speaker 2 (43:26):
Remember when you had like that news ticker something stuck
on the on the top on your laptop home screen forever?

Speaker 4 (43:33):
Oh yeah yeah when Yeah, flying back from London looking
for something to do, so I decided to go into
settings start messing with stuff. Now, all of a sudden,
I got stuff popping pop popping up at me like
it's Battlestar Galactica.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
I think you were trying to get Wi Fi and
you ended up subscribed to like eight different news services.

Speaker 4 (43:50):
Weren't supposed to share that. The subscriptions subsequently have been
canceled and I repented. Okay, so don't air my dirty
laundry on FM one hundred point three kfam.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
What's next? Well, what I would say is Vikes bite
style maybe Time forty nine, That's what I'm saying. I
think it's a little truncated. We jump back, let's get
to some talkbacks. There's plenty of talkbacks. Let me get
this straight.

Speaker 4 (44:15):
You get to mail in vikes bites with a three
minute Dallas Turner interview. Correct, and I write an hour
and fifteen minutes and lose it and I'm apoplectic and
losing my mind. And that's just how we're going to
do it. Well, it's a clock thing, it's a corner
office thing. Well, no, you're you're rubbing it in because
of what the con artists did? You knock me from
first to third? I did, okay, and it felt good.

(44:36):
Well it should feel good. Yeah, I mean playing from
last ain't a fun thing.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
No it's not.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
But nevertheless, you're piling on right now and getting healthy,
really making me question my lot in life.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
Second half team when it comes to this whole thing,
momentum being gained.

Speaker 4 (44:51):
Toys for Tots tomorrow, by the way, Yeah, so tot's
kids listen closely to nine to noon today, okay and tomorrow,
because we doubtedly will unveil cerebral, accurate and informed takes
that you Tots can steal. And you can go ahead
and take it to the lunch room and be the
smartest sports room. And said lunchroom a tough season for that.

(45:14):
Now that's today and that's tomorrow, and that's really the
rest of our lives for those who care. Did I
tell you you know, if you're so inclined from listening
to fanline yesterday, if you're interested in the way too
early to even think about twenty twenty six NFL draft.
Now the Vikings currently are picking eleventh, forty second, seventy three,
ninety seven, one, sixty two, two two, two, twenty six

(45:37):
and forty one. Do you ever hear the story about
a treacherous storm and a cow and a bowl. I
mean an adviser might tell that thing five times anyway. Yeah,
so talkbacks around the corner, and then the analyst on KFAM.

Speaker 2 (46:00):
Talkback machine free iHeartRadio app hit that microphone, give us
up to your best thirty seconds, and maybe it sounds something.

Speaker 13 (46:06):
Like this, Apa Aaron from Hopkins.

Speaker 2 (46:11):
Here.

Speaker 13 (46:13):
First the fans wanted to get rid of Cousins, Then
they wanted to get rid of kJ. Now they want
to get rid.

Speaker 2 (46:23):
Of the coach.

Speaker 13 (46:25):
Maybe we should just stop listening to the fans. Maybe
the coach, seeing the players in practice, knows more than
we do.

Speaker 2 (46:34):
Just a thought, have a good.

Speaker 4 (46:37):
Day, Aaron talkbacks today are going to be handled with
a plumb. They're going to be handled with respect and
with kindness and admiration for a fan base that actually
takes time to leave talkbacks and call eight hundred three

(46:57):
two zero five three two six and in fat finger
like fashion, mash on the six four six eighty six
and just say yeah, hey, go ahead and go three
and out two consecutive times Sunday against Washington with Mike
Grimmer Anthony lapant On lead vocals on KFAM and I

(47:21):
wonder if they'll boo you lustily. I wonder they're frustrated,
But we are them. We understand, we crack wise when
we're frustrated. We try to lose jobs by mentioning who
is on or not on sidelines during games.

Speaker 2 (47:37):
When we're frustrated. So we understand.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
But the fan base, no matter if it's like, hey,
wasn't this guy recently Coach of the Year and uh
it's Carson Wentz, this, JJ McCarthy, that Kirk Cousin's this
and Goosh Dobs that, well, they care, they care, and
they have a right to be frustrated right now because

(48:02):
for how many ever know who knows how many.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
That's a nice sentence. Who knows how many.

Speaker 10 (48:11):
They?

Speaker 4 (48:13):
There are many who really, really really really enjoy this
as a distraction factor for more reasons than betting or
fantasy football.

Speaker 2 (48:23):
And if fans are going to fan is one way
to put it. Opinions are going to be good. Opinions
are going to be bad, and that's what they are
their opinions.

Speaker 14 (48:33):
Good morning, gentlemen. This is John and Los Angeles.

Speaker 2 (48:38):
Two six.

Speaker 14 (48:41):
I know we're supposed to be kind and respectful with
all of this, but you know what I just want.
I just want the Vikings to ruin someone else's season
this year because it looks like that's all we have left.
I just want us to beat Green Bay or Detroit
when it matters and mess up their playoff hopes.

Speaker 4 (49:02):
Right now, there goes my Twitter feed for the next
three days from snot nosed Packer fans. You know, I mean,
it's like Jordan Love will probably have a passer rating
of one fifty eight and three in practice and I'll
catch nine strays.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
That's okay, that's just part of the four and eight.

Speaker 4 (49:18):
You know what I want, and speaking for both of us,
you know what we want. We don't want this football
team to lose nine consecutive games. Yeah, and set a
Minnesota Vikings record for futility.

Speaker 2 (49:30):
That's what we want.

Speaker 4 (49:32):
We don't want to be underdogs at home to a
three and nine operation that's one and six on the
road and is on a seven game losing streak, and
somehow with Marcus Mariota, jayde and Daniels, why wouldn't he play?
Of course, I'll bla, but he was limited this week
in practice. Mariota played right last night? Yeah, thank you.

Speaker 10 (49:53):
So.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
Jadan Daniels just needs to be officially cleared for contact
with the elbow thing. But why would you clear him?
You're three and nine. He wants to play, Well, great,
We're happy for him.

Speaker 4 (50:02):
I'd want to play too, watching Drake May and bow
Nix leave him in the wake of a keen turn
of speed.

Speaker 2 (50:07):
By anyway, I'm sorry to look at that.

Speaker 4 (50:09):
Jaydon Daniels now catching strays from the salty announcer, the
non deceased Paul Allen.

Speaker 6 (50:15):
All right, this one, hey guys, Jason Madison, So we
are four years into this.

Speaker 4 (50:25):
Old I'm sorry. Yeah, that previous talkbacker, talkerbacker. He started
it by saying five six two O six. Who are
you Madison Hedgecock five six two o six? Honestly, I
mean are you Madison Hedgecock? Are you Lorenzo O'Neill, I
mean are you Drake Thomas?

Speaker 2 (50:46):
Who are you? All right? Anyway? Well, he's well built
for five six six, that's impressive. Hey, guys, Jason Madison,
are you a cow?

Speaker 6 (50:57):
Or? We are four years into this Twacy Adolfo mensa experiment.
We have the worst quarterback situation in the division. Oh jeez,
we have the worst salary cap situation going into twenty
twenty six in the division, and we're the worst team
in the division. I'm done with the experiment.

Speaker 2 (51:19):
What's that mean?

Speaker 4 (51:20):
Well, you're not done with the experiment, because, okay, paul
A'll allen talkbacks, kindness, respect, a plumb understanding forgiveness and
subsequently probably repentance.

Speaker 2 (51:36):
And the fans have a voice.

Speaker 4 (51:38):
I understand. I completely understand the whole thing. My response
would be this. My response would be, what do these
numbers have in common? Eleven forty two, seventy three, ninety seven,
two two two, two twenty six and two forty one.

Speaker 2 (51:55):
I think those are all of the Vikings current draft
selections in twenty twenty six, twenty six, twenty twenty six, and.

Speaker 4 (52:02):
We're in twenty twenty five. It's five games to play. No,
just please don't lose them all, all right, Just be
a bison, be a bull. Run into the storm and
endure the tumult, the blitz, kraig the torrent, and get
out of it quickly.

Speaker 2 (52:21):
Don't be a big fat cow. We don't want your.

Speaker 4 (52:24):
Hooves facing the sky I feel seen. We don't want
your sensitive teats to be tattered. We don't want you
to fracture a cannon bone or a stifle while toppling.
Don't run away from it like a big fat cow.
Run into it like a Bizon Pee versus Jannalyist Vikings

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills

As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
