Speaker 2 (00:28):
All right, Chris, I'm sure you've already seen this on Twitter,
but somebody tagged us and said that Billy the Kid
and Billy Claiborne are two different people.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
See that? Now, here's what I looked at you. Obviously
they're right. History Channels Today in History says eighteen eighty
two on the State in History, Frank Leslie kills Billy
the Kid Claiborne, but doesn't say to Dangel got there
being two different Billy the Kids.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
So his nickname was also the Kid, but he's not
Billy the Kid.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
If that makes sense, that sucks?
Speaker 5 (00:55):
Now?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Can we have to Billy the Kids?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
So the Billy the Kid was Hen McCarty, who got
killed in eighteen eighty one.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
It's not even Billy by the way, it's no.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
His alias was William H. Bonnie b O N N
E Y. So that's the Billy Party alias was William,
but he's actually Henry McCarty.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
They didn't have like a you know, Facebook or Instagram
for people to be arguing about who was the real
Billy the Kid back then, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
No, they just shot off your face.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
They shot people. But either way, Billy Claiborne was killed.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, I was, Uh, we're screaming at the radio, screaming
history buff over.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
There, Billy, Billy the Kid.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
No, it's too bad though. Still he did get killed
because he didn't stop rough talking.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
That was yeah, he meets. Yeah, a lot of the
story just the wrong one.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
And by the way, that Billy Claiborne, that Billy the
Kid was also at the OK Corral.
Speaker 6 (01:50):
Oh really, yeah, man, Billy the kids got around. Yeah,
they did, a lot of kids, a lot of the kids,
a lot of Billies.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Why were there any Corey kids?
Speaker 6 (02:00):
You know, it was William such a popular name back then,
easy to I guess.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
There wasn't Corey the Kids until the late seventies early
eighties that's true.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
It was Cornelius.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Oh god, oh yes, yeah, oh boy.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I've definitely had people ask if that was my full name,
and I say absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
I wish to give me a break.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
I wish it was.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Can we confirm that? Like, does it say you want
to see my birth certificate? Yes? I was born in Hawaii, Zach,
I promise.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
You honestly, there's no chance you were born in Hawaii.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yeah, look at you.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
You're melt it. You and me as you and me
came from Transylvania.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Kid, what if my parents were vacationing there and that's
where I was born?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Possible? Doesn't mean I was conceived there.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Do you know where I was born, Zachary, Saint Paul,
Saint Paul, Minnesota Asians.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Or what St. Joe's Upper Thank St Joe's. I don't know.
I don't remember. I wasn't there. I I mean I
was there, but I wasn't there.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Closed the hospital and they found out you were born there?
Why because you were the spawn of Satan and they
don't want to be attached to that. Well, that could dark.
I don't think they knew that immediately. No, no, well
when you came out, ah, yeah, you did.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
That was Dave Draymond.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
You were auditioning fun disturbed.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
This is Camp News with Chris Hockey, presented by the
twenty twenty six IIHF World Junior Champion.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
J Baby Come Home.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Yeah, man, we're gonna see a little bit at the mall.
I'm sure in a couple of weeks they're they're really
excited down there for it. The World Junior Championship coming

Metal Round on sale now as well. But it'll be
a fun week and a half of hockey right here
in the state of Hockey.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Yeah, now here's hockey.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Thank you. Coyote signings, that's not right. Coyote sidings in
northwest Minnesota are prompting mornings from authorities. The Wilkins County
Sheriff's Office as it has received multiple reports of coyotes
sidings in the city of Breckenridge. I don't know, I
mean I see them all times.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Yeah, they're always off by us, and that's Colorado, so
who cares.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
It's a different It's actually a Breckenridge of Minnesota.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Where's that. It's very next to Aspen.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
In northwest Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Oh, oh, it's yeah, it's like about an hour and
a half outside of Denver.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Coyotes. Is it because they haven't seen him in a while?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Maybe maybe that's it. I don't know, man, but I
hear them in my from my place on Yeah. Yeah,
and I actually saw one. I can't remember what it was,
maybe a year ago.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
The department recommends securing all garbage containers to keep coyotes away.
They're scavengers, as well as supervising small dogs and cats
unless you don't like them anymore.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Yeah, and if you want to, if, if, if you
ever heard a pack of coyotes get on something too,
it's a pretty horrifying sound.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Yeah, it's screaming. They just scream.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I guess they're more active in the morning, because my
neighbors have told me multiple times that, like, there's coyotes
by my house howling from like five thirty to nine
during the weekdays.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Is that right? Wow?
Speaker 2 (05:07):
It's interesting. And you know, my ring cam's off right now,
so I don't I don't. I can't confirm that, but
I guess it's annoying as hell.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I was driving just getting on ninety four in Rogers
yesterday and I saw, uh sad, I saw a red
fox that had just been hit outside the road. I'm still,
you know, hanging on and he kept going, it's the
big one.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
That is a dated jail. Yeah, I got it, we
got it.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Like this asiated at the studio there. He comes to
mind because I watched the Eddie Murphy Eddie Murphy documentary
last night on Netflix. Really really good. I'm huge fan,
especially as a kid, really really interesting documentary about his
life and his younger life and about his brother's big
brother too, who was obviously a big part of Jelle
Chappelle Charlie Murphy, that story man at the uh The
(05:59):
Chappelle Show when Charlie Murphy Watson and Rick James punches
him in the face The Chappelle Show.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Man out of ten genius, ten out of ten genius.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
I first of all, I want to go back quick,
just not to rehash it, but I'm stupefied that the
NHL NFL does not have professionals apparently. I am absolutely
stupefied at that, just just as another professional athlete.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
What the heck is the NFL doing? Yeah.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Uh and two, I watched In Waves in war Hawk.
It's about this like iba game and like it's an
hallucinogenic that that helps with like PTSD and everything it is.
It looks it's an incredible, incredible documentary In Waves and
war It's on Netflix Netflix.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
Man, very relatable for a guy like me. Obviously very
different jobs. But man, what they're going through that at
that hit home.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
But is it a hopeful thing?
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Though?
Speaker 6 (07:04):
It is, it's pretty incredible, but it's of course it's
a schedule one in this country, so you got to
go to Canada or Mexico, you got to go somewhere
else you get it done. But the results in the
military has been incredible, no, man.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Looking at it. Yeah right now. In Waves and More, yeah,
well it's winning all kinds of awards. Holy right a bull.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
So yeah, there you go. Looking for more information out
here the trailer, Yeah, just go to in Waves and
warfilm dot com if you want information. I'll watch that.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Man, it's really good.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Yeah, we're run a little bit late. We should break
and come back and replay the Adam deal in our
audio that's making its waves across the world right now, man.

it it says they do. They do, but it's unlike
every other watch party.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
They have it on differently, it's they show it upside down.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, that's not exactly like every other one, and they
show it just a third slower than everybody else.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
You can really watch it.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Oh that's cool, I think. So then you can't with
Pa and Pete and stuff.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
I like.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
I love watching I do not to catch off, sorry
is echo. I really do like listening to our coverage
and watching it on television because I know what's going
to happen before it happens, and I can kind of
see what they're talking about because often Peter'll be like, yeah,
the guard blah blah blah, and as he's singing, I'm
actually watching it happen.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
I don't mind the delay. I'm a weirdo.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
They apparently synced it up for Mead Sauce's watch party
last week there, which was also unlike any other It
was unlike idiot.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Well they just you know, they just keep up in
the ante every week, right.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
That's right. Well listen, uh, it's time for some sports
and we are are our own top story.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Can I bring something to tell to a fan?
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Five on the Power Trip presented by All Around, your
Timber Tech deck building contractor.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Thanks all Around, Zachary. What you were going to bring up?
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Is it more important than the Adam feel n quote,
which is cracking me out.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
It's second a second.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Uh so, yeah, we had Feeling on forty five minutes.
We're not trying to you know, we're not in the
breaking news business. But man, as soon as he said it,
Chris and I both put you to are like, whoa yo.
Like that was an interesting line when you basically say
that the refs are fanboying for Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
That's awesome.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
But yeah, this was on our show what forty five
minutes ago, Adam Feeling, and.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
He's on our show every Friday at six thirty place.
Speaker 7 (10:19):
I don't know if I should be going here, but
I'm going to. Okay, But I think I think we
need to have full time referees. I think I think
it's ridiculous that we have and no offense to these guys.
I mean, they obviously love their job and they put
a lot of time into and I know they do,
but it's like we have these guys that are kind
of fanboys a little bit, like they love they love
(10:40):
the fact that they get to go out there and
they get to shake hands with Patrick Mahomes, they get
to hang out with these professional athletes, and then they
go to their real job on Monday through Friday and
tell everybody how cool cool are their side job is.
I think that there should be full time referees. I mean,
the NFL has billions and billions of dollars. There's so
much money in the game, there's so much betting on
(11:02):
the game that these games matter so much than not
you know, obviously the people that are gambling, but what
about the people that put so much time and effort
to try to go and perform well and win games
and and all the time the coaches put in that
they deserve to have full time referees, and you know,
that's that's my take on it. And I think it's
(11:24):
very easy, easy to do, and I don't know why
it hasn't been done.
Speaker 6 (11:28):
He's wrong, He's not wrong, he's absolutely I cannot believe
that a professional sports organization does not have full time
professional refs.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
So you're saying the NHL does have full time professional.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Reps, yes, And obviously, I mean the schedule for football
is a little bit different, so I kind of I
can understand that. But yeah, you got full time professional refs, that's.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
What they do. You pay him enough to do it
year round.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
And like feeling said, like for the NFL to not
have that the amount of money that they make.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
That's a joke. Yeah, I mean that's that's a drop
in the bucket.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
It literally doesn't even mean anything regard I mean, they
could pay him a million bucks.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
Who cares? That's nothing to them?
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah, and it would be aggravating. I mean it's you know,
every job. I'm sure Corey has examples like this, but
there is such thing as a radio consultant who comes
in and tells morning shows how to do their morning
show better. And it's normally a person who doesn't live
in your market and hasn't done radio before, or at
least hasn't done morning radio before. And it's like, wait,
how do you how can you? What if you're talking
(12:25):
about a referee who has a regular job the rest
of the week and has never played the game before,
which you know, neither here nor there in some ways.
But I can see his point as well, why not
have people who do this full time? Why not make
this their full time job? As I know, it's it's
not an eighty two game season like in the NHL,
but it's still a very long season and it's very
(12:46):
very important to do the job right.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Absolutely, and that's you know, the NHL refs obviously you
learn about it as players. I mean they get broken down,
they get clips sent to them, whoever the director or
the referees is, whoever the over site. They're constantly getting critiqued,
they're constantly working on their craft, they're constantly getting better,
and the game's getting better because of that as well.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Well.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
That just blows my mind that they're just don't have
people focus on that one job, like feeling the gambling,
the amount of money everything, close.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
The leaks right, tighten it up with all these gambling controversies.
The last couple of weeks to the NFL is probably
gonna have to tighten it up. Good morning, Marny, good Marning.
But also you know, back to not that gamblowers here,
but we could talk about you know, Sauce likes to
tweet out.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Like the NFL's rigged. The Chiefs would have gotten this call.
That's my saw some pressure.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
That's pretty good. I thought I was saying it was
pretty well. But think about what theland just said. I
think it's obviously ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
I don't, I don't.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
There's the risk isn't worth the reward that Roger Goodell's like,
make sure the chiefs get all the calls. But if
feeling but feeling's thing makes a lot more sense. It's
it's not like some refs like I'm going to make
sure that Patrick Mahomes gets all the calls. It might
just be human nature to be like, man, if I'm
gonna lean fifty five forty five one way, just instinctively,
(14:01):
do I want to have Patrick Mahomes yelling at me
because I made the wrong call, I'm going to lean
towards making the right call for him. It might just
be instinct. It might be human nature to not want
a guy that you're a little starstruck by to yell
at you.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Your cousin made some controversy.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
I know.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
As soon as he said, I don't know if if
I should go.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
There, but I'm good.
Speaker 8 (14:21):
I'm like, yeah, no idea what you're gonna say.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
But you're right, Corey.
Speaker 8 (14:25):
When you are a veteran player who understands his role
a little bit and doesn't have as much to.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
Lose, it's good stuff. It's the best and he made
a great point end of his career. Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Adam Webber Marniy Gellner, marniey Gelner, Adam Webber.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
To see.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I don't know why I'm introducing you. I've never met you.
I'm introducing you like I know ad I've never met
What do you guys meet? I mean go for stuff
across paths there hanging out, Adam, thanks for joining means
appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Yeah to Tommy, is so pumped that you could do this.
That's Chris Hockey back there. That so you like the
sash stash man man. He didn't get a little hockey
here going there? I don't, I mate, say, did.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
You play hockey at all at any point in your life?
Speaker 5 (15:10):
No? Just a little pond hockey girl on that account?
Speaker 6 (15:12):
That count all right?
Speaker 4 (15:13):
There you go, pond hockey man man.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Nothing better, nothing's all right? Well, yeah, cool, Thanks for
joining us, man, It's going to be super cool. We'll
talk ducks, we'll talk gophers. I want your opinion on
Drake Lindsay. We want to talk about J. J. McCarthy.
You've been through this process in the past. Can't wait
to ask you about all of it.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Yeah, and I want to talk to you about what
we were just talking about. Adam Dielon said, I don't
know if you were listening on the way in, but
the controversial comments about the referees, did you hear any
of that?
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Zach filled me in on the way up.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Yeah, what are your thoughts?
Speaker 5 (15:41):
A spicy but well, no, I mean I think where
he's coming from makes sense. And then he's you know,
he's later on in his career, he doesn't really care,
and he's an opinionated guy, and I think a lot
of guys feel that way, and he just voiced it. Obviously,
it's going to be probably be big news that he
said that, but you know, he's he has every right
to have his opinion, and I think it's warranted.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
You dipped your toe in the NFL.
Speaker 8 (16:03):
I mean you were on a couple of practice squads,
so you know that level of play, and I would
assume that level of refereeing should be right there with.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Oh yeah, no doubt. I mean, there's so much money
on the line for these games and to have some miscall,
I mean, there's gonna be miss calls. And then you know,
you look at like Baseball where they're trying to get
things more automated. Uh, there's there's a you know, referee
there's gonna be some miss calls. There's gonna be some judgment.
I think back in that Saints game where there's a
really bad you know, PI that they missed, like they
(16:33):
just didn't call. I can't remembers, and it was a
NFC Championship game. There was a big one, right, and
it's like, that's a big miss. That's part of the game,
and it's always been part of the game.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
So I don't know what.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
The answer is, you know, I don't know if it's
full time rest. I know the issues that have been
brought up is referees that can would be influenced by
outside money, right, and so having guys that come from
wealth or you know, have a you know, a good
income themselves to really focus in on just doing it
full time does make sense. I thought I always thought that.
(17:06):
I guess they were full time at least like during
the season. But uh, yeah, you can't have miss calls.
There's too crucial. So I get it.
Speaker 8 (17:15):
When do they have time to work out, they're reffing games,
they're going to the regular job.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
When do they have time to do arms?
Speaker 2 (17:21):
It's the burden of all of us, Marty. It's like
that's My excuse too, is I'm just too busy. Otherwise
I'd be working out like eight hours a day. Too busy,
way too busy.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I got to work out during halftime mars, is what
I'm thinking. You know, Yeah, maybe.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
When this came in the past, when this came up
in the past, didn't we hear Like some of the
guys work for like three AM or whatever, so it's
like or DuPont So it's like you're you're reffing a
game on Sunday and then you're selling post it notes
the rest of the week.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Well, and I gotta believe they would rather be full time.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
Yeah, Scotch tape all day?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Well, what's wrong with Scotch?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
It was a three M guy. I'm not ripping three Am,
just saying that. My guess is they would rather talk
football and more time.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Football sell Scotch tape those This is stickier than the
other tapes out there.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Man, you're gonna love the Scotch tape. That's one strategy.
What's wrong with that? Why wouldn't you want the stickiest tape?
Speaker 3 (18:08):
How about this Scotch tape that smells and taste like scotch. Ooh,
now we're talking right, talk about a good Christmas like
lickable wallpaper? Yeah? Has there ever been anything more frustrating
than every Christmas? Running out of Scotch tape? Every Christmas?
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Literally?
Speaker 6 (18:27):
So you wrapped the presence in your house Christmas?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I had ninety five things to wrap and I'm doing
it with a silver tape from the garage because I
ran out of the Scotch.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
It doesn't taste at all like scotch cartie are you?
Are you a believer?
Speaker 2 (18:41):
What is it like if you can't wrap a present
with like six is it six pieces of tape or less?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
I forget the number. Then you're doing it wrong.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
I've not seen this a challenge or something. Yeah, but
it's like again, since when is there a tape shortage?
I'll use as much tape as I want.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Mine always looks like the person who wrapped it has
never wrapped a present in their life.
Speaker 8 (18:59):
Always, I will say, you have to get the tape dispenser,
the one that's weighted down a little bit, because you
have to one.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Hand, got the feelings, and the gers just fire hot tapes.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
All day long?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
What about their reusing tape, hold it in one hand,
getting posted stamps off I'm much glad you came in.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
What are your thoughts on taping the if you get
clothes taping the box before you wrap it?
Speaker 4 (19:33):
What do you take for sure.
Speaker 8 (19:36):
Painters tape so that your kids can open. What are
your thoughts of throwing in the bottle of ketchup so
they when they shake the present, you.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Throw the bit? Yeah, ketchup? What a lot of things?
I got paper weights? I mean he a bottle of ketchup.
Hear me say one of your kids asked for like
air pods or something. Sure, they know the.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Size of the air pods box and got you.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
Then they shake it and you just hear this small on.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
You just use all that tape of yours.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
It just tape the box doesn't shake like you. Everybody
knew what a video game looked like.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You know that video game case, you know, so my
mom would wrap it with like a jar of pickles.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
Thank you can.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
We just got a box of cigarettes.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
My mom used to get me every Christmas. She would
get me a bottle of Ketchup and then put a.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Video game in the box with it, so I wouldn't
know that it was ketchup.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
Yus genius.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Wonder if this sounds like a video game. This can't
be what I asked for. This can't be Super Sprint.

Speaker 5 (22:16):
I can't but you know, I'm really I'm all over
the board. Yeah, I can't really pick it down. The
one thing that I like a particular genre that I
listened to. I'm I'm open to everything. Yeah, you know,
you know you want to sing tonight?
Speaker 3 (22:27):

Speaker 5 (22:34):
You know?
Speaker 4 (22:35):
Is that the informer Oh, yes, you know what I'm
talking about.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
That's a terrible song.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
And you know, out of ten entering, Adam Weber happens
to be the all time leader for the Minnesota go
Can Gophers in passing yards and touchdowns. Still right, that's right,
which is pretty awesome. Seven through ten, pretty cool, man,
I was. I was kind of snooping around because I
had to find a photo to promote that you were
going to be on the show. So I was snooping
your Instagram and I'm scrolling back, and I'm scrolling back.
(23:01):
You don't have a lot of photos of yourself. It's
a lot of family stuff, and yeah, geez, I don't know.
You're just like whatever, It's cool. You're not an ego maniac.
That's fine. So I scrolled so far back. I have
a question that has nothing to do with anything timely.
You You, like, a decade ago went on a three
and a half month ten country vacation, three and a
(23:22):
half months.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Trip of a lifetime, correct, Yeah, So what happened to go?
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Well, I had just gotten done playing, so I had
like a little stand up in the CFL, and when
I didn't make the team, I was a little bitter,
but I knew like it was time to hang up
the cleats and had a little bit of money from
my time in the NFL, but not a lot, and
it was like, Hey, before I do anything serious, I
want to get on and explore. I've never been able
to really do that before. And so my wife doesn't
(23:50):
like this because I was seeing another girl a full times.
But it was really cool because just about one way
tickets to Ireland and then from there it was there
was an app at the time called Skyscanner, and you know,
after we got tired of exploring all of Ireland, it
would be like, Hey, I'm in Ireland right now, let's
(24:11):
search anywhere. Where's the cheapest I can go? And then
it was like, oh, Perris, we can fly there for
twenty bucks. We're going to Paris tomorrow. And so I
kept on doing that and then staying in hostels talking
to people, where's another cool place to go? Hey, go
to Thailand? Okay, and cool, let's go to Thailand. You know,
somebody's kept on doing stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
How did you know when the end date was or
did you just say all right, I've had enough after
three and a half months.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Yeah, yeah, I know I wanted to get back it
has a little forest company. No, it was I want
to get back for the holidays. Okay, you know, so
it was like I think left in September and got
back in the middle of or end of closer, end
of December.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
How did you pack for a trip like that?
Speaker 5 (24:52):
So that was the tricky part. It was easy for me,
hard for the girlfriend at the time, yeah, because we backpacked, right,
and so then kind of telling her even myself, it
was we're collecting memories, not momento or like, you know,
not real stuff, buying souvenirs, not buying so you can't
(25:12):
because you know, it was like, I don't know they
do kilos. It was like whatever, seventeen kilos for your
backpack was X amount of dollars. If you anything more
than that was more. So it's like we're trying to
budget this thing. So every single time I had like
a little special uh.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Weight you know, it's a suitcase sure weight thing.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
Yeah, and so yeah, we just always make sure. Sometimes
we would leave stuff behind or like what I was
doing too is there's books in different hostels, so like
I would read a book and when I got done
with it, I would like you know, leave it at
a new hostel and grab another one. And so it's
like you're kind of changing things out and always trying
to maintain the weight.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
So no lifestyle, I love it. A couple pieces.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
Underwear, you know, keep it simple.
Speaker 4 (25:52):
You know, I mean that was going to be a
Max five. Well, of course that's all right. So at
the top of your head, do you remember every country
you went to in that uh that trek?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
I could, I could give it a shot, but probably I.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
Go and do as many as you can. Remember.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
We got Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Thailand, Australia, China.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
I know I'm missing a few, jeez. I mean that's
the same. Wow, So that's you know, that's Thailand, China.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
It was so essentially went around the world. I just
kept on going east. We never really went back west.
We could just kept on going east until we made
it around.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
And then went to the west coast of the States
at some point land in la or something.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
So it was a direct flight from Hong Kong to Chicago.
It was sixteen hours seventeen flight.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
That's cool, you're right though, Like that's why you know
all the European kids take that gap year, because once
you have a career and kids and family, it's like
that that just doesn't that window doesn't happen again until
you're an empty nester and you're in your like sixties.
It's so different traveling in your mid twenties when you
can hike a mountain or two a day and not
say my life is ending, I'm so tired.
Speaker 5 (27:04):
And then you're kind of you're not, you know, I
wasn't trying to stay in fancy hotels and things like that,
So you're kind of cool staying in a hostel with
you know.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Twelve other people you know, and that's awesome.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
That gets a little different when you're you know, thirty
eight and have two kids.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Yeah, that's kind of what our guy Max does. Max
just flies around the world and finds a hospital and
just it does the budget trip and then he can
go wherever he wants.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
It's awesome.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, he ain't taking a girlfriend.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
He wants unattached options. The women like you treated the.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
Books, well done, well done, well done. Before we get
into Vikings news, Adam Webergan is our guest, a former
Golden Gopher quarterback and also a former Denver Bronco quarterback.
You were on a squad that also had quarterbacks Brady
Quinn and Tim Tebow. What was it like to be
(27:55):
Tim Tebow's teammate and what was he like?
Speaker 4 (27:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (27:58):
So him and I were actually locker buddies, right, We
had lockers right next to each other. And that is
a question I do get because he is so, you know,
kind of polarizing the popular, but Tim is kind of
the what you see is what you get, which is
really refreshing because what he stands for and what he
you know, uh, kind of portrays himself. That's who he
(28:18):
really is as a person, really respectable. He didn't push
any of that on anybody. But he also just was
just a genuinely authentic, good, yeah, authentic human being, which
was was great.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Good.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
That's very cool. I'm glad to hear that.
Speaker 8 (28:33):
You know, Adam, when you played for the Gophers, your
head coach was Tim Brewster. Outside of your red shirt
freshman season, that would have been still Glenn Mason, right, yep, okay,
And then so he recruited you Mason, So you went
to the U thinking that would be your coach and
then it ends up being Tim Brewster and that was
not a great run. And I'm not trying to rip him,
(28:55):
but from someone who actually played for Brewster, how would
you describe that experience? And you don't have to be kind,
but I'm not trying to set you up to run.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
He wasn't the most super likable guy.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
Yeah, So you know, when you're there and doing it
and you're part of the team, you have to buy in, right,
so you can't really get caught up of like any
of the noise or else you're you're going to just
get distracted. You know, you're not gonna be able to
fight for a starting spot. But I would say it
was noticeable for him, and I think coach Brewster would
(29:33):
even admit this that you know, he was a first
time head coach, and I think some of that played into,
you know, the misses and the losses we had along
the way. He changed coordinators often right when things got sour.
He would fire, you know, fire guys. I mean we
(29:55):
had a lot offensive coordinator changes. We had a lot
of defensive coordinator changes too, and there's just no consistency.
And I think after a while, especially with him being
so you know, voistous and animated, if you don't have
the production behind it. People get tired, especially in this state,
and I think he just overstayed. Is welcome here, right,
(30:17):
But now you know he's still coaching, he's still doing.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
It, especially after Glenn Mason, who, in my opinion, man
if we pulled the trigger on him too quickly, my
goodness man. And we had some success with that guy.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Yeah, you don't know what you got to.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Let's go exactly exactly.
Speaker 5 (30:34):
We were in six. We had to win the last
three games to get Bowl eligible, right. I think we
ended the season six and six that year, and uh,
coach Mason. You know, every coach to every head coach,
they got an ego to them, unless you know. And
after a while, you got an athletic director that has
an ego as well, and you're bound to bump heads, right,
And then you have donors kind of voicing their opinion.
(30:56):
They feel like, if I donate X amount of dollars,
my opinion matters, and it does because they're gonna say
I'm gonna pull my money. And after a while, I
think as an athletic director, you get tired of that.
And then you start hearing little, you know, whispers outside
like hey, you know, there's other people. We can take
a look at this guy. And Brewster was probably really
good in interviews, right, that's what he is. The first
time you meet him, he's going to be like, Wow,
(31:16):
look at this guy. He's animated, he's got a plan,
he's focused, he'll change up, you know, go for a nation,
all this stuff, And I think it was just it
also didn't help that we lost the Bowl game in
six Uh we had a what thirty one point or
thirty four point comeback and lost that, So that doesn't help, right,
And I think that was the final straw that broke
the relationship with coach Mason. But yes, to Corey's point,
(31:40):
it would have been interesting to see what those next
couple years would have been like.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
All right, let me ask you the question that you've
probably been asked ten thousand times, but I've never actually
heard you answer this. What changes in your career if
you had had one offensive coordinator and not had to
start over essentially every year for the four years you
were there.
Speaker 5 (31:57):
Yeah, Well, you just you just build momentum out so
perfect example, you know when we make a change that
happens right at the end of the year, Well then
you know there's a lot of rules involved where the
coaches can't be around and stuff, where then as myself,
as like the quarterback or the leader of the team,
I could be getting guys, pulling them in, going out
and running the system and working on stuff, working on routes,
working on time, and working on whatever.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
We didn't even know what it was.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
So just like the whole summer was kind of like
just relearning stuff every single time. And then on top
of that, you go from coach Mason system, which is
more of like outside zone, heavy run, you know, lean
on the running backs, hard play action. So then Tim
Brewster comes in brings Mike Dunbar in. It's the spread system.
So then we go from big old boys down to
like more speedy guys up front. More so thinking about
(32:43):
the guys up front. Dunbar's there for two years, he
gets fired, and then they bring in Jeff Jeff Jet
sorry Jet Fish, and he's more pro style. So then
it's like you know, when you're when you're recruiting players,
it takes a year or two or maybe even three
to develop the guys up front, and every year we're
making a change in systems. We were just a hodgepodge
(33:03):
of spread to pro to you know, all this stuff
that we were just a bunch of misfits out there.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Fifteen years later, you'd have been in the transferred portal
so quick.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Ye, not to kiss hands, but think about it. You
had again, historic Gopher production despite that, right, all time
passing yards leader, all time touchdowns leader, despite not having
a consistent coordinator, consistent group, consistent offensive line.
Speaker 4 (33:27):
That's pretty nuts. That's pretty cool that you had.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
And like Chris's point, way before the transfer portal, you
still stuck it out. Yeah, because back then you could
have sat out a year and transferred. Could have done
that if you're just like I can't handle this inconsistency,
stuck it out, played four years and put up gigantic
numbers here.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Awesome.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
You know when I when I committed to Minnesota, I
grew up a Minnesota Gopher fan. My dad played there,
going to games every Saturday. So I committed to the school.
I didn't commit to a coach, although I really like
coach Mason.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
I knew that.
Speaker 5 (33:58):
I went on a visit with my mom. We went
to the Union along the River. You know, if if
my football career granded ended, would I be happy here,
and I was like, yeah, I would, so then I
was like, this is Where'm going to be and so
regardless of what happened, uh, coaching wise, I was going
to stick it up because I wanted to play there.
I wanted to be a golden Gopher.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
That's great, that's super impressive. Now it's a lot of fun,
a lot of those games. Man, it is Viking to do.
So brought to you by rag COO and we have
some other things we can comment on as well, because
Justin Jefferson spoke to the media yesterday and of course, uh,
I would guess people thought he had some explaining to do,
so he did some explaining, I guess, and he did
talk about I guess his demeanor and his body language
(34:43):
last week during the game. And here's what he said.
Speaker 9 (34:45):
A lot of emotion goes into towards that by at
the end of the day, I want to win, and
I'm an ultra competitor and a lot of people that
don't play this game and don't play sports don't understand
the competitive side of it. So, uh, yeah, I want
to win, and emotionally, things things you heat sometimes you
know so and things weren't going our way at that moment.
So I just want a better outcome, and of course
(35:09):
the office that we have, I feel like we should
be playing better than what we are.
Speaker 4 (35:13):
I'm so glad I played hockey. You didn't have to
explain yourself getting heated hockey.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Yeah, effort.
Speaker 8 (35:21):
The quarterback slash wide receiver relationship is huge.
Speaker 4 (35:26):
Adam Adam Weber would.
Speaker 8 (35:28):
Know your relationship, your connection with Eric Decker, I mean,
one of the all time great wide receivers.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
That had to be.
Speaker 8 (35:39):
A relationship that stayed consistent. You were with him, I
want to say, two, three years, three seasons.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
Yeah, no, I mean no question.
Speaker 5 (35:46):
You have to be on the same page, read body, language,
have trust with each other, and so that does take time.
And I know with like Justin Jefferson being the elite
wide receiver he is, having to work with a developing
quarterback can be frustrating at times, right because I look
at even like Eric Decker, he's in Denver. We were
(36:06):
in Denver together and Tim Tebow's the quarterback, and yes
we're winning games, but he's not getting the ball right.
And then all of a sudden, Peyton Manning comes in
and all of a sudden we got one of the
best quarterbacks of all time, throwing all the guys to
Mary's Thomas, Eric Decker, all these guys the ball, and
all of a sudden, Eric Decker goes on and has
the nine ten year career he has puts up all
these numbers. If Tebow's still there, and again I loved him.
(36:28):
Couldn't really throw the football very well in the NFL.
Those wide receivers were really wide blockers, right, And no
guy in the NFL is saying I'm going to make
money blocking.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
They don't make you know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (36:37):
So you got to You gotta be able to feed
these guys the ball without forcing it, or else you're
gonna deal with, you know, guys getting a little little.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
Pissy asking for a friend? How often does Eric Decker
take his shirt off? Just wondering?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Not your question for me, I'm asking for a weird question,
but you asked it then everywhere.
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Immedia, Yeah right, ye both lea.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
Now or then now we're then that now please stop?
Speaker 4 (37:14):
How often does he do? Now? How often does he
take a shirt off? Now daily?
Speaker 5 (37:18):
I would imagine, so well, you know, the thing is
there's any he is truly Uh, it's probably maybe over
over set at times, but he truly has like the
body of a Greek god, right like where he could
eat whatever he wants. Well, I mean, like in kind
of in general, that guy's got a body of agreed.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Maybe a photo shoot in college, yeah, yeah, the University
of Minnesota.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
That's brought up on the show both times very quickly.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
Yes, I mean he's got you know, four four percent body, fat,
good lucking guy, tall athletic. You don't play in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
I mean, what more do you want?
Speaker 4 (37:55):
Exactly? What more do you want? What do you look
at me? I made it awkward?
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Sech all right, Adam Webers here, we'll do a fan
five in a second Giant game to night for his Gophers.
Speaker 4 (38:07):
The Gophers are at number eight Oregon. We'll talk about
that in a second.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
During fan five, initials like fifteen to twenty minutes from now,
and wanted to get to crack at one hundred and
three thousand and five one hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
This is the power to remote chow on the fan

Speaker 2 (00:28):
All right, Chris, I'm sure you've already seen this on Twitter,
but somebody tagged us and said that Billy the Kid
and Billy Claiborne are two different people.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
See that? Now, here's what I looked at you. Obviously
they're right. History Channels Today in History says eighteen eighty
two on the State in History, Frank Leslie kills Billy
the Kid Claiborne, but doesn't say to Dangel got there
being two different Billy the Kids.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
So his nickname was also the Kid, but he's not
Billy the Kid.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
If that makes sense, that sucks?
Speaker 5 (00:55):
Now?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Can we have to Billy the Kids?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
So the Billy the Kid was Hen McCarty, who got
killed in eighteen eighty one.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
It's not even Billy by the way, it's no.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
His alias was William H. Bonnie b O N N
E Y. So that's the Billy Party alias was William,
but he's actually Henry McCarty.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
They didn't have like a you know, Facebook or Instagram
for people to be arguing about who was the real
Billy the Kid back then, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
No, they just shot off your face.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
They shot people. But either way, Billy Claiborne was killed.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, I was, Uh, we're screaming at the radio, screaming
history buff over.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
There, Billy, Billy the Kid.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
No, it's too bad though. Still he did get killed
because he didn't stop rough talking.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
That was yeah, he meets. Yeah, a lot of the
story just the wrong one.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
And by the way, that Billy Claiborne, that Billy the
Kid was also at the OK Corral.
Speaker 6 (01:50):
Oh really, yeah, man, Billy the kids got around. Yeah,
they did, a lot of kids, a lot of the kids,
a lot of Billies.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Why were there any Corey kids?
Speaker 6 (02:00):
You know, it was William such a popular name back then,
easy to I guess.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
There wasn't Corey the Kids until the late seventies early
eighties that's true.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
It was Cornelius.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Oh god, oh yes, yeah, oh boy.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
I've definitely had people ask if that was my full name,
and I say absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
I wish to give me a break.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
I wish it was.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Can we confirm that? Like, does it say you want
to see my birth certificate? Yes? I was born in Hawaii, Zach,
I promise.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
You honestly, there's no chance you were born in Hawaii.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yeah, look at you.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
You're melt it. You and me as you and me
came from Transylvania.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Kid, what if my parents were vacationing there and that's
where I was born?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Possible? Doesn't mean I was conceived there.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Do you know where I was born, Zachary, Saint Paul,
Saint Paul, Minnesota Asians.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Or what St. Joe's Upper Thank St Joe's. I don't know.
I don't remember. I wasn't there. I I mean I
was there, but I wasn't there.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Closed the hospital and they found out you were born there?
Why because you were the spawn of Satan and they
don't want to be attached to that. Well, that could dark.
I don't think they knew that immediately. No, no, well
when you came out, ah, yeah, you did.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
That was Dave Draymond.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
You were auditioning fun disturbed.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
This is Camp News with Chris Hockey, presented by the
twenty twenty six IIHF World Junior Champion.
Speaker 3 (03:31):

Speaker 4 (03:50):
Yeah, now here's hockey.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Thank you. Coyote signings, that's not right. Coyote sidings in
northwest Minnesota are prompting mornings from authorities. The Wilkins County
Sheriff's Office as it has received multiple reports of coyotes
sidings in the city of Breckenridge. I don't know, I
mean I see them all times.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Yeah, they're always off by us, and that's Colorado, so
who cares.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
It's a different It's actually a Breckenridge of Minnesota.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Where's that. It's very next to Aspen.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
In northwest Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Oh, oh, it's yeah, it's like about an hour and
a half outside of Denver.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Coyotes. Is it because they haven't seen him in a while?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Maybe maybe that's it. I don't know, man, but I
hear them in my from my place on Yeah. Yeah,
and I actually saw one. I can't remember what it was,
maybe a year ago.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
The department recommends securing all garbage containers to keep coyotes away.
They're scavengers, as well as supervising small dogs and cats
unless you don't like them anymore.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Yeah, and if you want to, if, if, if you
ever heard a pack of coyotes get on something too,
it's a pretty horrifying sound.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Yeah, it's screaming. They just scream.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I guess they're more active in the morning, because my
neighbors have told me multiple times that, like, there's coyotes
by my house howling from like five thirty to nine
during the weekdays.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Is that right? Wow?
Speaker 2 (05:07):
It's interesting. And you know, my ring cam's off right now,
so I don't I don't. I can't confirm that, but
I guess it's annoying as hell.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I was driving just getting on ninety four in Rogers
yesterday and I saw, uh sad, I saw a red
fox that had just been hit outside the road. I'm still,
you know, hanging on and he kept going, it's the
big one.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
That is a dated jail. Yeah, I got it, we
got it.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Like this asiated at the studio there. He comes to
mind because I watched the Eddie Murphy Eddie Murphy documentary
last night on Netflix. Really really good. I'm huge fan,
especially as a kid, really really interesting documentary about his
life and his younger life and about his brother's big
brother too, who was obviously a big part of Jelle
Chappelle Charlie Murphy, that story man at the uh The
(05:59):
Chappelle Show when Charlie Murphy Watson and Rick James punches
him in the face The Chappelle Show.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Man out of ten genius, ten out of ten genius.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (06:15):
I first of all, I want to go back quick,
just not to rehash it, but I'm stupefied that the
NHL NFL does not have professionals apparently. I am absolutely
stupefied at that, just just as another professional athlete.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
What the heck is the NFL doing? Yeah.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Uh and two, I watched In Waves in war Hawk.
It's about this like iba game and like it's an
hallucinogenic that that helps with like PTSD and everything it is.
It looks it's an incredible, incredible documentary In Waves and
war It's on Netflix Netflix.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
Man, very relatable for a guy like me. Obviously very
different jobs. But man, what they're going through that at
that hit home.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
But is it a hopeful thing?
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Though?
Speaker 6 (07:04):
It is, it's pretty incredible, but it's of course it's
a schedule one in this country, so you got to
go to Canada or Mexico, you got to go somewhere
else you get it done. But the results in the
military has been incredible, no, man.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Looking at it. Yeah right now. In Waves and More, yeah,
well it's winning all kinds of awards. Holy right a bull.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
So yeah, there you go. Looking for more information out
here the trailer, Yeah, just go to in Waves and
warfilm dot com if you want information. I'll watch that.
Speaker 4 (07:33):

Speaker 3 (08:42):
They have it on differently, it's they show it upside down.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, that's not exactly like every other one, and they
show it just a third slower than everybody else.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
You can really watch it.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Oh that's cool, I think. So then you can't with
Pa and Pete and stuff.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
I like.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
I love watching I do not to catch off, sorry
is echo. I really do like listening to our coverage
and watching it on television because I know what's going
to happen before it happens, and I can kind of
see what they're talking about because often Peter'll be like, yeah,
the guard blah blah blah, and as he's singing, I'm
actually watching it happen.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
I like that.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
I don't mind the delay. I'm a weirdo.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
They apparently synced it up for Mead Sauce's watch party
last week there, which was also unlike any other It
was unlike idiot.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Well they just you know, they just keep up in
the ante every week, right.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
That's right. Well listen, uh, it's time for some sports
and we are are our own top story.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Can I bring something to tell to a fan?
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Five on the Power Trip presented by All Around, your
Timber Tech deck building contractor.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Thanks all Around, Zachary. What you were going to bring up?
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Is it more important than the Adam feel n quote,
which is cracking me out.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
It's second a second.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Uh so, yeah, we had Feeling on forty five minutes.
We're not trying to you know, we're not in the
breaking news business. But man, as soon as he said it,
Chris and I both put you to are like, whoa yo.
Like that was an interesting line when you basically say
that the refs are fanboying for Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
That's awesome.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
But yeah, this was on our show what forty five
minutes ago, Adam Feeling, and.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
He's on our show every Friday at six thirty place.
Speaker 7 (10:19):
I don't know if I should be going here, but
I'm going to. Okay, But I think I think we
need to have full time referees. I think I think
it's ridiculous that we have and no offense to these guys.
I mean, they obviously love their job and they put
a lot of time into and I know they do,
but it's like we have these guys that are kind
of fanboys a little bit, like they love they love
(10:40):
the fact that they get to go out there and
they get to shake hands with Patrick Mahomes, they get
to hang out with these professional athletes, and then they
go to their real job on Monday through Friday and
tell everybody how cool cool are their side job is.
I think that there should be full time referees. I mean,
the NFL has billions and billions of dollars. There's so
much money in the game, there's so much betting on
(11:02):
the game that these games matter so much than not
you know, obviously the people that are gambling, but what
about the people that put so much time and effort
to try to go and perform well and win games
and and all the time the coaches put in that
they deserve to have full time referees, and you know,
that's that's my take on it. And I think it's
(11:24):
very easy, easy to do, and I don't know why
it hasn't been done.
Speaker 6 (11:28):
He's wrong, He's not wrong, he's absolutely I cannot believe
that a professional sports organization does not have full time
professional refs.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
So you're saying the NHL does have full time professional.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Reps, yes, And obviously, I mean the schedule for football
is a little bit different, so I kind of I
can understand that. But yeah, you got full time professional refs, that's.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
What they do. You pay him enough to do it
year round.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
And like feeling said, like for the NFL to not
have that the amount of money that they make.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
That's a joke. Yeah, I mean that's that's a drop
in the bucket.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
It literally doesn't even mean anything regard I mean, they
could pay him a million bucks.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
Who cares? That's nothing to them?
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah, and it would be aggravating. I mean it's you know,
every job. I'm sure Corey has examples like this, but
there is such thing as a radio consultant who comes
in and tells morning shows how to do their morning
show better. And it's normally a person who doesn't live
in your market and hasn't done radio before, or at
least hasn't done morning radio before. And it's like, wait,
how do you how can you? What if you're talking
(12:25):
about a referee who has a regular job the rest
of the week and has never played the game before,
which you know, neither here nor there in some ways.
But I can see his point as well, why not
have people who do this full time? Why not make
this their full time job? As I know, it's it's
not an eighty two game season like in the NHL,
but it's still a very long season and it's very
(12:46):
very important to do the job right.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Absolutely, and that's you know, the NHL refs obviously you
learn about it as players. I mean they get broken down,
they get clips sent to them, whoever the director or
the referees is, whoever the over site. They're constantly getting critiqued,
they're constantly working on their craft, they're constantly getting better,
and the game's getting better because of that as well.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Well.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
That just blows my mind that they're just don't have
people focus on that one job, like feeling the gambling,
the amount of money everything, close.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
The leaks right, tighten it up with all these gambling controversies.
The last couple of weeks to the NFL is probably
gonna have to tighten it up. Good morning, Marny, good Marning.
But also you know, back to not that gamblowers here,
but we could talk about you know, Sauce likes to
tweet out.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Like the NFL's rigged. The Chiefs would have gotten this call.
That's my saw some pressure.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
That's pretty good. I thought I was saying it was
pretty well. But think about what theland just said. I
think it's obviously ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (13:39):
I don't, I don't.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
There's the risk isn't worth the reward that Roger Goodell's like,
make sure the chiefs get all the calls. But if
feeling but feeling's thing makes a lot more sense. It's
it's not like some refs like I'm going to make
sure that Patrick Mahomes gets all the calls. It might
just be human nature to be like, man, if I'm
gonna lean fifty five forty five one way, just instinctively,
(14:01):
do I want to have Patrick Mahomes yelling at me
because I made the wrong call, I'm going to lean
towards making the right call for him. It might just
be instinct. It might be human nature to not want
a guy that you're a little starstruck by to yell
at you.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Your cousin made some controversy.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
I know.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
As soon as he said, I don't know if if
I should go.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
There, but I'm good.
Speaker 8 (14:21):
I'm like, yeah, no idea what you're gonna say.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
But you're right, Corey.
Speaker 8 (14:25):
When you are a veteran player who understands his role
a little bit and doesn't have as much to.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
Lose, it's good stuff. It's the best and he made
a great point end of his career. Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Adam Webber Marniy Gellner, marniey Gelner, Adam Webber.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
To see.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I don't know why I'm introducing you. I've never met you.
I'm introducing you like I know ad I've never met
What do you guys meet? I mean go for stuff
across paths there hanging out, Adam, thanks for joining means
appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Yeah to Tommy, is so pumped that you could do this.
That's Chris Hockey back there. That so you like the
sash stash man man. He didn't get a little hockey
here going there? I don't, I mate, say, did.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
You play hockey at all at any point in your life?
Speaker 5 (15:10):
No? Just a little pond hockey girl on that account?
Speaker 6 (15:12):
That count all right?
Speaker 4 (15:13):
There you go, pond hockey man man.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Nothing better, nothing's all right? Well, yeah, cool, Thanks for
joining us, man, It's going to be super cool. We'll
talk ducks, we'll talk gophers. I want your opinion on
Drake Lindsay. We want to talk about J. J. McCarthy.
You've been through this process in the past. Can't wait
to ask you about all of it.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Yeah, and I want to talk to you about what
we were just talking about. Adam Dielon said, I don't
know if you were listening on the way in, but
the controversial comments about the referees, did you hear any
of that?
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Zach filled me in on the way up.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Yeah, what are your thoughts?
Speaker 5 (15:41):
A spicy but well, no, I mean I think where
he's coming from makes sense. And then he's you know,
he's later on in his career, he doesn't really care,
and he's an opinionated guy, and I think a lot
of guys feel that way, and he just voiced it. Obviously,
it's going to be probably be big news that he
said that, but you know, he's he has every right
to have his opinion, and I think it's warranted.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
You dipped your toe in the NFL.
Speaker 8 (16:03):
I mean you were on a couple of practice squads,
so you know that level of play, and I would
assume that level of refereeing should be right there with.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Oh yeah, no doubt. I mean, there's so much money
on the line for these games and to have some miscall,
I mean, there's gonna be miss calls. And then you know,
you look at like Baseball where they're trying to get
things more automated. Uh, there's there's a you know, referee
there's gonna be some miss calls. There's gonna be some judgment.
I think back in that Saints game where there's a
really bad you know, PI that they missed, like they
(16:33):
just didn't call. I can't remembers, and it was a
NFC Championship game. There was a big one, right, and
it's like, that's a big miss. That's part of the game,
and it's always been part of the game.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
So I don't know what.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
The answer is, you know, I don't know if it's
full time rest. I know the issues that have been
brought up is referees that can would be influenced by
outside money, right, and so having guys that come from
wealth or you know, have a you know, a good
income themselves to really focus in on just doing it
full time does make sense. I thought I always thought that.
(17:06):
I guess they were full time at least like during
the season. But uh, yeah, you can't have miss calls.
There's too crucial. So I get it.
Speaker 8 (17:15):
When do they have time to work out, they're reffing games,
they're going to the regular job.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
When do they have time to do arms?
Speaker 2 (17:21):
It's the burden of all of us, Marty. It's like
that's My excuse too, is I'm just too busy. Otherwise
I'd be working out like eight hours a day. Too busy,
way too busy.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I got to work out during halftime mars, is what
I'm thinking. You know, Yeah, maybe.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
When this came in the past, when this came up
in the past, didn't we hear Like some of the
guys work for like three AM or whatever, so it's
like or DuPont So it's like you're you're reffing a
game on Sunday and then you're selling post it notes
the rest of the week.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Well, and I gotta believe they would rather be full time.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
Yeah, Scotch tape all day?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Well, what's wrong with Scotch?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
It was a three M guy. I'm not ripping three Am,
just saying that. My guess is they would rather talk
football and more time.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Football sell Scotch tape those This is stickier than the
other tapes out there.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Man, you're gonna love the Scotch tape. That's one strategy.
What's wrong with that? Why wouldn't you want the stickiest tape?
Speaker 3 (18:08):
How about this Scotch tape that smells and taste like scotch. Ooh,
now we're talking right, talk about a good Christmas like
lickable wallpaper? Yeah? Has there ever been anything more frustrating
than every Christmas? Running out of Scotch tape? Every Christmas?
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Literally?
Speaker 6 (18:27):
So you wrapped the presence in your house Christmas?
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I had ninety five things to wrap and I'm doing
it with a silver tape from the garage because I
ran out of the Scotch.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
It doesn't taste at all like scotch cartie are you?
Are you a believer?
Speaker 2 (18:41):
What is it like if you can't wrap a present
with like six is it six pieces of tape or less?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
I forget the number. Then you're doing it wrong.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
I've not seen this a challenge or something. Yeah, but
it's like again, since when is there a tape shortage?
I'll use as much tape as I want.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Mine always looks like the person who wrapped it has
never wrapped a present in their life.
Speaker 8 (18:59):
Always, I will say, you have to get the tape dispenser,
the one that's weighted down a little bit, because you
have to one.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Hand, got the feelings, and the gers just fire hot tapes.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
All day long?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
What about their reusing tape, hold it in one hand,
getting posted stamps off I'm much glad you came in.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
What are your thoughts on taping the if you get
clothes taping the box before you wrap it?
Speaker 4 (19:33):
What do you take for sure.
Speaker 8 (19:36):
Painters tape so that your kids can open. What are
your thoughts of throwing in the bottle of ketchup so
they when they shake the present, you.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Throw the bit? Yeah, ketchup? What a lot of things?
I got paper weights? I mean he a bottle of ketchup.
Hear me say one of your kids asked for like
air pods or something. Sure, they know the.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Size of the air pods box and got you.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
Then they shake it and you just hear this small on.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
You just use all that tape of yours.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
It just tape the box doesn't shake like you. Everybody
knew what a video game looked like.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You know that video game case, you know, so my
mom would wrap it with like a jar of pickles.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
Thank you can.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
We just got a box of cigarettes.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
My mom used to get me every Christmas. She would
get me a bottle of Ketchup and then put a.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Video game in the box with it, so I wouldn't
know that it was ketchup.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
Yus genius.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Wonder if this sounds like a video game. This can't
be what I asked for. This can't be Super Sprint.

the board. Yeah, I can't really pick it down. The
one thing that I like a particular genre that I
listened to. I'm I'm open to everything. Yeah, you know,
you know you want to sing tonight?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
You want to come? No, you don't want to hear
this voice?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Do you like Canadian reggae rap? Are you familiar with
the artist Snow?
Speaker 5 (22:34):
You know?
Speaker 4 (22:35):
Is that the informer Oh, yes, you know what I'm
talking about.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
That's a terrible song.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
And you know, out of ten entering, Adam Weber happens
to be the all time leader for the Minnesota go
Can Gophers in passing yards and touchdowns. Still right, that's right,
which is pretty awesome. Seven through ten, pretty cool, man,
I was. I was kind of snooping around because I
had to find a photo to promote that you were
going to be on the show. So I was snooping
your Instagram and I'm scrolling back, and I'm scrolling back.
(23:01):
You don't have a lot of photos of yourself. It's
a lot of family stuff, and yeah, geez, I don't know.
You're just like whatever, It's cool. You're not an ego maniac.
That's fine. So I scrolled so far back. I have
a question that has nothing to do with anything timely.
You You, like, a decade ago went on a three
and a half month ten country vacation, three and a
(23:22):
half months.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Trip of a lifetime, correct, Yeah, So what happened to go?
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Well, I had just gotten done playing, so I had
like a little stand up in the CFL, and when
I didn't make the team, I was a little bitter,
but I knew like it was time to hang up
the cleats and had a little bit of money from
my time in the NFL, but not a lot, and
it was like, Hey, before I do anything serious, I
want to get on and explore. I've never been able
to really do that before. And so my wife doesn't
(23:50):
like this because I was seeing another girl a full times.
But it was really cool because just about one way
tickets to Ireland and then from there it was there
was an app at the time called Skyscanner, and you know,
after we got tired of exploring all of Ireland, it
would be like, Hey, I'm in Ireland right now, let's
(24:11):
search anywhere. Where's the cheapest I can go? And then
it was like, oh, Perris, we can fly there for
twenty bucks. We're going to Paris tomorrow. And so I
kept on doing that and then staying in hostels talking
to people, where's another cool place to go? Hey, go
to Thailand? Okay, and cool, let's go to Thailand. You know,
somebody's kept on doing stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
How did you know when the end date was or
did you just say all right, I've had enough after
three and a half months.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
Yeah, yeah, I know I wanted to get back it
has a little forest company. No, it was I want
to get back for the holidays. Okay, you know, so
it was like I think left in September and got
back in the middle of or end of closer, end
of December.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
How did you pack for a trip like that?
Speaker 5 (24:52):
So that was the tricky part. It was easy for me,
hard for the girlfriend at the time, yeah, because we backpacked, right,
and so then kind of telling her even myself, it
was we're collecting memories, not momento or like, you know,
not real stuff, buying souvenirs, not buying so you can't
(25:12):
because you know, it was like, I don't know they
do kilos. It was like whatever, seventeen kilos for your
backpack was X amount of dollars. If you anything more
than that was more. So it's like we're trying to
budget this thing. So every single time I had like
a little special uh.
Speaker 4 (25:28):
Weight you know, it's a suitcase sure weight thing.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
Yeah, and so yeah, we just always make sure. Sometimes
we would leave stuff behind or like what I was
doing too is there's books in different hostels, so like
I would read a book and when I got done
with it, I would like you know, leave it at
a new hostel and grab another one. And so it's
like you're kind of changing things out and always trying
to maintain the weight.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
So no lifestyle, I love it. A couple pieces.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
Underwear, you know, keep it simple.
Speaker 4 (25:52):
You know, I mean that was going to be a
Max five. Well, of course that's all right. So at
the top of your head, do you remember every country
you went to in that uh that trek?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
I could, I could give it a shot, but probably I.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
Go and do as many as you can. Remember.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
We got Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Thailand, Australia, China.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
I know I'm missing a few, jeez. I mean that's
the same. Wow, So that's you know, that's Thailand, China.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
It was so essentially went around the world. I just
kept on going east. We never really went back west.
We could just kept on going east until we made
it around.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
And then went to the west coast of the States
at some point land in la or something.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
So it was a direct flight from Hong Kong to Chicago.
It was sixteen hours seventeen flight.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
That's cool, you're right though, Like that's why you know
all the European kids take that gap year, because once
you have a career and kids and family, it's like
that that just doesn't that window doesn't happen again until
you're an empty nester and you're in your like sixties.
It's so different traveling in your mid twenties when you
can hike a mountain or two a day and not
say my life is ending, I'm so tired.
Speaker 5 (27:04):
And then you're kind of you're not, you know, I
wasn't trying to stay in fancy hotels and things like that,
So you're kind of cool staying in a hostel with
you know.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Twelve other people you know, and that's awesome.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
That gets a little different when you're you know, thirty
eight and have two kids.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Yeah, that's kind of what our guy Max does. Max
just flies around the world and finds a hospital and
just it does the budget trip and then he can
go wherever he wants.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
It's awesome.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, he ain't taking a girlfriend.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
He wants unattached options. The women like you treated the.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
Books, well done, well done, well done. Before we get
into Vikings news, Adam Webergan is our guest, a former
Golden Gopher quarterback and also a former Denver Bronco quarterback.
You were on a squad that also had quarterbacks Brady
Quinn and Tim Tebow. What was it like to be
(27:55):
Tim Tebow's teammate and what was he like?
Speaker 4 (27:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (27:58):
So him and I were actually locker buddies, right, We
had lockers right next to each other. And that is
a question I do get because he is so, you know,
kind of polarizing the popular, but Tim is kind of
the what you see is what you get, which is
really refreshing because what he stands for and what he
you know, uh, kind of portrays himself. That's who he
(28:18):
really is as a person, really respectable. He didn't push
any of that on anybody. But he also just was
just a genuinely authentic, good, yeah, authentic human being, which
was was great.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Good.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
That's very cool. I'm glad to hear that.
Speaker 8 (28:33):
You know, Adam, when you played for the Gophers, your
head coach was Tim Brewster. Outside of your red shirt
freshman season, that would have been still Glenn Mason, right, yep, okay,
And then so he recruited you Mason, So you went
to the U thinking that would be your coach and
then it ends up being Tim Brewster and that was
not a great run. And I'm not trying to rip him,
(28:55):
but from someone who actually played for Brewster, how would
you describe that experience? And you don't have to be kind,
but I'm not trying to set you up to run.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
He wasn't the most super likable guy.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
Yeah, So you know, when you're there and doing it
and you're part of the team, you have to buy in, right,
so you can't really get caught up of like any
of the noise or else you're you're going to just
get distracted. You know, you're not gonna be able to
fight for a starting spot. But I would say it
was noticeable for him, and I think coach Brewster would
(29:33):
even admit this that you know, he was a first
time head coach, and I think some of that played into,
you know, the misses and the losses we had along
the way. He changed coordinators often right when things got sour.
He would fire, you know, fire guys. I mean we
(29:55):
had a lot offensive coordinator changes. We had a lot
of defensive coordinator changes too, and there's just no consistency.
And I think after a while, especially with him being
so you know, voistous and animated, if you don't have
the production behind it. People get tired, especially in this state,
and I think he just overstayed. Is welcome here, right,
(30:17):
But now you know he's still coaching, he's still doing.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
It, especially after Glenn Mason, who, in my opinion, man
if we pulled the trigger on him too quickly, my
goodness man. And we had some success with that guy.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Yeah, you don't know what you got to.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Let's go exactly exactly.
Speaker 5 (30:34):
We were in six. We had to win the last
three games to get Bowl eligible, right. I think we
ended the season six and six that year, and uh,
coach Mason. You know, every coach to every head coach,
they got an ego to them, unless you know. And
after a while, you got an athletic director that has
an ego as well, and you're bound to bump heads, right,
And then you have donors kind of voicing their opinion.
(30:56):
They feel like, if I donate X amount of dollars,
my opinion matters, and it does because they're gonna say
I'm gonna pull my money. And after a while, I
think as an athletic director, you get tired of that.
And then you start hearing little, you know, whispers outside
like hey, you know, there's other people. We can take
a look at this guy. And Brewster was probably really
good in interviews, right, that's what he is. The first
time you meet him, he's going to be like, Wow,
(31:16):
look at this guy. He's animated, he's got a plan,
he's focused, he'll change up, you know, go for a nation,
all this stuff, And I think it was just it
also didn't help that we lost the Bowl game in
six Uh we had a what thirty one point or
thirty four point comeback and lost that, So that doesn't help, right,
And I think that was the final straw that broke
the relationship with coach Mason. But yes, to Corey's point,
(31:40):
it would have been interesting to see what those next
couple years would have been like.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
All right, let me ask you the question that you've
probably been asked ten thousand times, but I've never actually
heard you answer this. What changes in your career if
you had had one offensive coordinator and not had to
start over essentially every year for the four years you
were there.
Speaker 5 (31:57):
Yeah, Well, you just you just build momentum out so
perfect example, you know when we make a change that
happens right at the end of the year, Well then
you know there's a lot of rules involved where the
coaches can't be around and stuff, where then as myself,
as like the quarterback or the leader of the team,
I could be getting guys, pulling them in, going out
and running the system and working on stuff, working on routes,
working on time, and working on whatever.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
We didn't even know what it was.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
So just like the whole summer was kind of like
just relearning stuff every single time. And then on top
of that, you go from coach Mason system, which is
more of like outside zone, heavy run, you know, lean
on the running backs, hard play action. So then Tim
Brewster comes in brings Mike Dunbar in. It's the spread system.
So then we go from big old boys down to
like more speedy guys up front. More so thinking about
(32:43):
the guys up front. Dunbar's there for two years, he
gets fired, and then they bring in Jeff Jeff Jet
sorry Jet Fish, and he's more pro style. So then
it's like you know, when you're when you're recruiting players,
it takes a year or two or maybe even three
to develop the guys up front, and every year we're
making a change in systems. We were just a hodgepodge
(33:03):
of spread to pro to you know, all this stuff
that we were just a bunch of misfits out there.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Fifteen years later, you'd have been in the transferred portal
so quick.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Ye, not to kiss hands, but think about it. You
had again, historic Gopher production despite that, right, all time
passing yards leader, all time touchdowns leader, despite not having
a consistent coordinator, consistent group, consistent offensive line.
Speaker 4 (33:27):
That's pretty nuts. That's pretty cool that you had.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
And like Chris's point, way before the transfer portal, you
still stuck it out. Yeah, because back then you could
have sat out a year and transferred. Could have done
that if you're just like I can't handle this inconsistency,
stuck it out, played four years and put up gigantic
numbers here.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Awesome.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
You know when I when I committed to Minnesota, I
grew up a Minnesota Gopher fan. My dad played there,
going to games every Saturday. So I committed to the school.
I didn't commit to a coach, although I really like
coach Mason.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
I knew that.
Speaker 5 (33:58):
I went on a visit with my mom. We went
to the Union along the River. You know, if if
my football career granded ended, would I be happy here,
and I was like, yeah, I would, so then I
was like, this is Where'm going to be and so
regardless of what happened, uh, coaching wise, I was going
to stick it up because I wanted to play there.
I wanted to be a golden Gopher.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
That's great, that's super impressive. Now it's a lot of fun,
a lot of those games. Man, it is Viking to do.
So brought to you by rag COO and we have
some other things we can comment on as well, because
Justin Jefferson spoke to the media yesterday and of course, uh,
I would guess people thought he had some explaining to do,
so he did some explaining, I guess, and he did
talk about I guess his demeanor and his body language
(34:43):
last week during the game. And here's what he said.
Speaker 9 (34:45):
A lot of emotion goes into towards that by at
the end of the day, I want to win, and
I'm an ultra competitor and a lot of people that
don't play this game and don't play sports don't understand
the competitive side of it. So, uh, yeah, I want
to win, and emotionally, things things you heat sometimes you
know so and things weren't going our way at that moment.
So I just want a better outcome, and of course
(35:09):
the office that we have, I feel like we should
be playing better than what we are.
Speaker 4 (35:13):
I'm so glad I played hockey. You didn't have to
explain yourself getting heated hockey.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Yeah, effort.
Speaker 8 (35:21):
The quarterback slash wide receiver relationship is huge.
Speaker 4 (35:26):
Adam Adam Weber would.
Speaker 8 (35:28):
Know your relationship, your connection with Eric Decker, I mean,
one of the all time great wide receivers.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
That had to be.
Speaker 8 (35:39):
A relationship that stayed consistent. You were with him, I
want to say, two, three years, three seasons.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
Yeah, no, I mean no question.
Speaker 5 (35:46):
You have to be on the same page, read body, language,
have trust with each other, and so that does take time.
And I know with like Justin Jefferson being the elite
wide receiver he is, having to work with a developing
quarterback can be frustrating at times, right because I look
at even like Eric Decker, he's in Denver. We were
(36:06):
in Denver together and Tim Tebow's the quarterback, and yes
we're winning games, but he's not getting the ball right.
And then all of a sudden, Peyton Manning comes in
and all of a sudden we got one of the
best quarterbacks of all time, throwing all the guys to
Mary's Thomas, Eric Decker, all these guys the ball, and
all of a sudden, Eric Decker goes on and has
the nine ten year career he has puts up all
these numbers. If Tebow's still there, and again I loved him.
(36:28):
Couldn't really throw the football very well in the NFL.
Those wide receivers were really wide blockers, right, And no
guy in the NFL is saying I'm going to make
money blocking.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
They don't make you know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (36:37):
So you got to You gotta be able to feed
these guys the ball without forcing it, or else you're
gonna deal with, you know, guys getting a little little.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
Pissy asking for a friend? How often does Eric Decker
take his shirt off? Just wondering?
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Not your question for me, I'm asking for a weird question,
but you asked it then everywhere.
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Immedia, Yeah right, ye both lea.
Speaker 1 (37:09):
Now or then now we're then that now please stop?
Speaker 4 (37:14):
How often does he do? Now? How often does he
take a shirt off? Now daily?
Speaker 5 (37:18):
I would imagine, so well, you know, the thing is
there's any he is truly Uh, it's probably maybe over
over set at times, but he truly has like the
body of a Greek god, right like where he could
eat whatever he wants. Well, I mean, like in kind
of in general, that guy's got a body of agreed.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Maybe a photo shoot in college, yeah, yeah, the University
of Minnesota.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
That's brought up on the show both times very quickly.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
Yes, I mean he's got you know, four four percent body, fat,
good lucking guy, tall athletic. You don't play in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
I mean, what more do you want?
Speaker 4 (37:55):
Exactly? What more do you want? What do you look
at me? I made it awkward?
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Sech all right, Adam Webers here, we'll do a fan
five in a second Giant game to night for his Gophers.
Speaker 4 (38:07):
The Gophers are at number eight Oregon. We'll talk about
that in a second.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
During fan five, initials like fifteen to twenty minutes from now,
and wanted to get to crack at one hundred and
three thousand and five one hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
This is the power to remote chow on the fan

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
