Speaker 3 (00:47):
All Right, it's almost time, but I have one quick
question about a rumor that I'm hearing that I want
to talk to our loved Minnesota Viking, Brian Reneal about
you don't.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
I'm sure you.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Don't comment on rumors. But this is from a Reef
Hassan and he's he's hooked in. How would you feel
if it turned out to be true that the Vikings
are playing back to back international games.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
I'm reading that everywhere.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Now, that's a possibility.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
That's what I'm reading right now, hearing the Vikings will
be playing internationally and back to back weeks at Steelers
week four, at Cleveland week five, uh, week four, London
in week five, back to back weeks.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
That's what the internet's saying. And when is the internet
ever wrong?
Speaker 3 (01:28):
And this again, if there were just anybody, I wouldn't
say it. But that's a reef man. He's usually hooked in.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
I don't know how. I've never done that. Yeah, I can't.
I don't know, I don't.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
I think Jacksonville did it last year, but they played
in the same country, right, I.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Think it was London both times.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
I think you are correct, Yes, yes, sir, So.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Maybe the Vikings would be the first to ever do that.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
We'll see.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Crazy. How do you feel about the International Games in general?
Though you're fine with them?
Speaker 5 (01:51):
I think our team does the travel the right way,
like I think they.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
On an airplane. Yeah, she's a talking to take a
vote over actually tomorrow. No, I think just like your car.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
The protocol they have to like kind of keep us
time adjusted or with the time zones and everything. They
do a really good job, you know. They we get
a big plane and they do it the right way.
So I've liked him in the past.
Speaker 6 (02:18):
But is that Chad Lindin making all those notes and changes?
Speaker 4 (02:21):
And Chad does a great job. There's a whole team that.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
I can't believe how they do it. He says, it's
just him, but he.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Does a lot. But we got to give credit to
everybody else.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Kidding, heyya, justics must be absolutely insane. Yeah, I mean
to make it go.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
Every time we do an away game in the United States,
a team of people has to go there a couple
of days early to get everything ready.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
So I'm imagining they would have to go like a
week early.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
As somebody who's done a lot of two week road
trips mark, how good is it to be gone for?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
It can be pretty tough.
Speaker 7 (02:51):
I bet it can get tough, just mentally just getting
back to the you know, you need the home cook
and you need your home bed.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (02:59):
That's why you can when you get on those long
road trips near the end of them, that game those
games can kind of be scary. You know, in the NHL,
you can it's okay to lose a couple of games
at the end of a seven game road trip, right,
but it'll be I just be interesting to see.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
How the energy is, how the morale is.
Speaker 7 (03:18):
Coming up on that second game, because that's a long
time away from home.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
No doubt, that's a good point. I never thought about that.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Now it's time for the Saint Paul Federal Credit Union

which is be the caller that gets through. That's the
hardest part. And all y'all, all you have to do

you ninety five hundred dollars. Take a shot at it.
Corey and Roosevelt, go for it. Let's go s C,
s C as in California. That's correct, all right, S
is in Sacramento, C is in California.
Speaker 4 (08:37):

a shot? That a whole bunch of money.

or SC, but you went this way and you're taking
a shot at twenty thousand, five hundred dollars. Okay, Come on,
is Corey and Roseville the third ever jackpot winner for
ninety five hundred dollars? He's going the letter S in
(10:00):
the letter C. What can I hold this? This tension? Sorry,
son of a bitch? Sorry, yeah, stay there, that's really cool.
I guess absolutely take it?
Speaker 4 (10:19):
All right?
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Well, I would argue if I was the caller on
a weekly basis, and now this window for the foreseeable
future has closed. But this is the combo, I would
always guess doubles doubles. So he had the S part right,
he guessed SC. This is the this is the back
(10:40):
of your pocket combo to guests whenever you get in.
If it hasn't been used in a while, I think
it's the one I've used the most in the history
of the game. Double s Come Onty bucks. Thanks to

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Some people experience this.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
Clue number three.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
In a couple of different ways. You could argue this
is most often connected to nineteen to twenty four year olds.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Clue number four.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
This deals with increased expectations.
Speaker 4 (13:33):

Mark starting to run away, Mark with for sauce with one.
Here's number seven of doubles. Clue number one not easily replicated.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Clue number two.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
This can be an undefinable element. Clue number three sometimes
a catalyst of sorts. Paul, go for it, silver spoon, Hawk,
(19:16):
Secret Sauce. That's Chris gets O good one. All right,
secret sauce. This is hard. This is I said nothing
on that one. A bunch of notes that yeah, Brian.
The silver lining is she hasn't hit you yet, because
(19:38):
she also has not scored, and you did predict that
she would not win in so far Martins, that's looking
to be the case. Mark has four, Hawk and Sauce
each have one. Five to go. Everybody's stole. Mathematically technically,
in this Yere's number eight of double less.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
Clue number one.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Sometimes connected to evidence recovery. Clue number two involves a
level of suspicion.

Clue number three is a procedure.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Clue number four can be considered highly intrusive. Paul, strip search,
search strip search.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
You got that one, Brian, because I like to win.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yes, that's the right answer. Mark has four, Sauce has two,
Hawk has one. There's four raft. One of you has
to run it otherwise, Mark, Sauce and hawkstile. In this,
of course, here's numb nine of doubles.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Clue number one is.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Most commonly two or three.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
Clue number two.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
One of the words is the physical arrangement. Clue number three,
often ordered clue number four. This is a huge disadvantage
(21:36):
in poker.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Clue number five, most.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Commonly asked for in the mornings.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
Final clue clue number six.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
This is not a large amount of pancakes. First short staff,
that's right, stack short stock, shoot. Sauce is chipping away
and he's back in this with three to go. All right,
job Paul, all right, you, Brian and Marney are mathematically
keep playing. Get let's go. Yes, you can get one.
(22:24):
Here we go, Uh, Hawk, you need the last three.
You can still tie Mark. Otherwise, Mark, you have a
one point lead with three to All right, buddy, here's
number ten of double less Clue number one, no resistance
or friction. Clue number two without complications.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Marnie.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Marnie was first, smooth sailing. That's right, mars is smooth,
would alone on the board. Here we go. That that
takes Chris out of the running. The situation is as
simple as this. Now, Marky, Marky, Mark, you have a
one point lead with two to go. If you get
(23:17):
either of the remaining two, you mathematics listening up. Come on,
So Mark is going for the wind sausage at least
one of the last two. Here's number eleven of doubles.

specific light and heat. Clue number two this is a nickname.

all right, look at him. Wow. Comes down to this
number twelve. Mark, if you get this right, you win.
Sauce get this right, thanks, you win, Marnie. If you
get this right, we have a tiebreaker between those two.
(24:40):
Hawk if you get this right, We have a tiebreaker
between those two. Brian, if you get this right, we
have a tiebreaker between those two, and you pass.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
