Starting point is 00:00:15 Everybody welcome to the show on a Friday. It is a barn burner. It's slipper season, Dino. It is slipper season. It is slipper season. I don't know if I need new ones or just another piece of tape. Maybe somebody needs a pair of stocking on Christmas. Anyone got any nice slippers out there?
Starting point is 00:00:34 What's going on there? I'm moving back in. I just wanted you to see the type of season we're into it. Yeah, I was thinking about it when I walked in today. It's like, it's, we're going to be pulling the slip. out here anyway. Son of a beeswax. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:49 Did we know the snow is coming? I don't pay attention to anything. I woke up. I saw the weather app telling me the blustery, wintry conditions should end up. What? What? You're talking about? No.
Starting point is 00:01:00 So did we get everything done we needed to? No. Yeah. I was going to have a fire pit last night. Oh, by the lake. Shoot. Yeah. Like the.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Son of a. The things that you use to the hoses. I didn't get that put away. No? No. Oh, boy, you're way behind? I get my, my hoses put away. I was,
Starting point is 00:01:26 you keep your hoses put away. I was going to definitely, uh, well, I was kind of, I was going to encourage one of, the other people, dumb young men that live with me to get the leaf blower out and get the leaves figured out.
Starting point is 00:01:41 That hasn't been done. Oh, shit. They can hire people for that. Your kids are busy. Yeah. Yeah, they got a lot on the go. Five days off school after three weeks off. Well, sounds like a barn burner.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Summer vacation kind of thing. Hey, you know, welcome to the show. Presentation of Bet365. Ooh, baby. Today's the day, Dino. Football picks coming up later in the show. Can't wait. Going to get back towards the road to respectability begins today with our bet 365 picks.
Starting point is 00:02:15 Use that code nation when you sign up if you haven't done that already. And by golly. Super chat. They're already coming in. I see a big one is already in. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, big one coming in. The money goes to the U-S centers of Calgary, if you are so inclined.
Starting point is 00:02:32 During the course of the show, you put a comment, put a little bing ding on the little cash deal. And we'll give them money away. We'll take it. And we'll put you thing on the show. Little siphon some out and then we'll slide the rest. No. Oh, although guaranteed that the one event we were adding the guy handed him. cash. That never made it.
Starting point is 00:02:55 An accountant for? Unaccounted for? Yeah, I don't believe that. He's pretty. I feel like that was funding. Freebird on course last weekend, perhaps. This lovely studio that we're in that houses us and our
Starting point is 00:03:13 slipper, our array of slippers and perhaps more after our pre-game or pre-show conversation. We've got lots of ideas from the retro. McLeod. Law, LLP Studios. McLeod-Dashlaw.com is the website. Whether it's something that's just run of the mill, you need some legal assistance, or maybe there's a serious issue that's come up in your life and you need help and you need
Starting point is 00:03:36 it and you want the best. You want to be able to have some peace of mind than they are the very best. Very proud of those Calgary routes that they've established over the years. And it seems like every two or three weeks or a month, there's another. It's like, well, this person has won the litigator of the year. law, a bider of the year, a top something or other of the year. They're very good is what it comes down to. Business, personal, they're in it with you, McLeod Law.
Starting point is 00:04:03 They would probably be interested in my idea, too, and sponsoring that part of the studio. I don't know. Right? Like, they're in into. I might need them when I bring in all my. So what are you? Wonky medical gear. You want to bring in your?
Starting point is 00:04:20 Oh, I got all kinds of stuff. around the house and I'm like, geez, we got two. Have you been using it? Right. Have you poked your head in those rooms? Because they're already full of somebody else's. Somebody's scarred. Yeah, it's discarded. There's already household junk. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Stuff they don't want laying around their house. They brought in here and is, what is this? This is a guitar, is a framed jersey? This is some kind of. No. There's literally lumber sitting in the back off. There's stacks of wood. I feel like that's an odd thing. Like, if you are going to dump stuff, Just dump it on the side of the road. Don't burn it all the way down. Don't dump it on the side of the road.
Starting point is 00:05:00 I mean, there's, there is, I was driving out near Ders Place once a couple years ago. And there was a whole, I don't know how much, but damn near a dump truck full of shingles. Some ass hat. Just right middle of the road. I'm not paying to take this to the dump. Yeah. Just right there. Right here.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Someone will pick it up. Yeah. So whoever's house just got shingled. Right. It's probably wouldn't be hard to figure. Yeah. Somebody's probably got a nice new shingling job done somewhere. That's nice than roof you got there.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Who did that work? Well, it was Jimmy and Johnny at the Mobile Depot. That's right. Fellas. Do we still have the table in the hallway? I was going to say there's tables there. If anyone needs a good white table. With no legs.
Starting point is 00:05:50 What? Yeah. Those men are. the garbage. They did, right? Yeah. So if you just want a tabletop, I can't live in these conditions,
Starting point is 00:05:58 do. Yeah. So please don't bring anything else in here. Oh, but this is medical, miracle stuff. This will get you straight and right out. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Well, we'll talk about it. We'll get into it. So, yeah, it's the winter. Jack, big thank you. Sorry, Dean, but I've got to get to South to forget. Jack's old man, wonderful human, much like Jack.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Peanuts? Unbelievable. They're good, eh? Alabama peanuts. So, I was extremely hung over when they were explaining to me, but this is like a big thing.
Starting point is 00:06:33 It's a big thing. It's old. And the Heritage peanut plant and the whole thing. So it's not just, these are not janky peanuts. Yeah. The crowd come out of a cracker jack.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Yeah. This is a real high quality. And they just started serving booze there. So I think it's their new hangout spot. It's, they're kind of like spits where they're hard to stop. Hard to stop. If they're good, they're hard to stop.
Starting point is 00:06:57 Like I was going to have one in the truck. You should see the mess. I bet. The absolute disaster whirlwind, the tsunami of. In high school, Rined. Our shop teacher. It's not important what his name is.
Starting point is 00:07:15 But he, you know what? Sometimes when you're a kid, you just see everybody, all adults kind of at a certain level. It's like, well, they have their life together. They are their teachers, their business people, their professionals, obviously they have their life in order.
Starting point is 00:07:29 And as we got older, it was kind of like, I think Mr. Sebulski might be a bit of a mess. He was a heavier gent. He was our shop teacher. And he drove a big kind of a rusty colored Chevy van that was a POS for sure. and I don't know why, but we thought one day, well, I wonder what it looks like in that van.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Like, what do you think he's got in there? So you broke it? No, you just kind of do, do one of these, right? So you're like,
Starting point is 00:08:02 oh, there's a bunch of garbage and shit in the back of this van. Like there's, it's chip bags, it's this. It's like rapper, food wrappers. This is gross.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Is he living in here? And, you know, in the, people, it doesn't, really matter. But in a, in a full-size van, the engine and transmission are here. So it's kind of, there's the tunnel thing that comes right here. And he had just, he loved spits, apparently. So he
Starting point is 00:08:33 was just like, like you. Not going to open a damn window. No spitty cup. It's winter. It's a damn cold. So the, the tunnel where the engine is, it was just kind of like a slow, like a long, steady. So it would, where the tunnel would go down to the floor, it just kind of continued like this with sunflower seeds. There's some builds up. There's a snowdrift. Yeah. It was just a snowdrift of eaten sunflower seeds. I don't know that. Rest in peace. Maybe he's got the right idea. I don't know if he ever got around to it. I'm not sure if he ever did clean that down. That detailed. No problem. Gross. How do we get here? Yes, the peanuts. Thanks, Jack's dad. The more I hear about Alabama from your old man, it feels like we should make a road trip. I think we should. I've been once, so, and it was a good time.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Could we roll tide? We could roll tide. Can you get tickets to go and roll tide? I would go roll tide. I've never been to a college game. That's one. I haven't been to a college game either. What?
Starting point is 00:09:39 Then we got to go. What else can you? I mean, we can, uh, we'll go to the peanut place because they serve booze now. Yeah, we can do that. Pender would want to go.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Yeah, there's live music in Muscle Sholes. Muscle Shoals, Alabama is a historic. I mean, bluesy. Kind of, yeah, bluesy, Southern Rock, obviously. But there's Scholes like S-H-O-A-L-S. Like, yeah. Like in the ocean, sure. S-H-O-A-L-S.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Sure. Muscle, like, dude. And then Scholes like how I just spelled it. Yeah, that's important. And I'm sure there's other things down there. there. Yeah. You do it, Alabama, Jack.
Starting point is 00:10:21 We're only two hours from Nashville, so once we do everything we can, it's a quick drive. I missed that. I thought he said it was four. Is it two? No, it's only two. From Birmingham. From Birmingham. Paint me of Birmingham.
Starting point is 00:10:35 Trace of Lawrence. I miss Nashville. Me too. God, I love Nashville. I said when I came in today, I kind of feel like shit. I'm going to feel like shit and it's snowing and cold in Calgary. I may as well be in Nashville and feeling hungover and shitty. That's a good point, though.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Why not be so more great when you feel like shit? Yeah, if you're going to feel not great, may as well be hung over, hung to the tith somewhere you want to be. Time to welcome in. You know what this guy's done? Everything. Upset the apple cart. Tipped the damn thing?
Starting point is 00:11:08 Upset the apple cart. How do you tip the apple cart? Oh, he did it. No after. Sure. Ty, sitting there. TV voice going. Apple cart. Crystal waters plumbing and heating.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Wow. Inside our hotline. Crystal Waters, they are doing, they, I mean, they do everything within your home. They're coming to look at my furnace, make sure everything's copacetic. They're going to get in there, take a look at this. Okay, we'll take this. And while they're there, they're going to put in a brand new garage heater, whatever, just the mechanical heartbeat of your home. Crystal waters.
Starting point is 00:11:44 When something goes wrong, hot water tank, this ain't working. Did you hear that noise? When your apple cart gets tipped over in your house. Who do you call? Crystal Waters, plumbing and heating, crystal clear choice for home comfort, crystal clear Calgary.com. The, the big apple cart tipper himself, TSAHawk, how to do and take your joists. Way to go, drags, thanks.
Starting point is 00:12:04 Appreciate it. I didn't know what you were doing. I mean, the hands were going there. I thought you were doing that teenage six, seven. Yeah. I didn't know. I mean, the hands are flipping around. It's you.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Yeah. You're sitting out there in your big palatial estate. You don't drive into the city anymore because you're a big deal. You don't have to do that kind of stuff. I don't. I'm just going to sit here. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to enrage an entire NHL team fan base today.
Starting point is 00:12:34 Now, why is that? And I haven't looked at social media, so I don't know what the comments of the feedback is. But why is the fan base enraged? Enlighten me here. Well, I'm just going to, again, I just, we've started the show. it's already a fraud. Drager doesn't know he's talking about Dragger doesn't know what he's talking about.
Starting point is 00:12:53 No, it's not so much that. It's, uh, we need Marie Edwards to sell the team. This team's never going to tell Edwards is out. You know what? Just move the team. Just get them on it. I can't handle any more of this. Uh, you, you went on your insiders thing there on the TSN and you're like,
Starting point is 00:13:16 yeah, stuck in a Murray Edwards. Well, you're not, you'd say it now. I would say, if you're expecting a Nossam cadre deal, I'd maybe pump the brakes because Murray Edwards loves the core of this team. This is what loves the core of this team, no trades, believes in this team. And people have lost their shit because they finally believe, they believe that for once, this team is not going to give you that, well, maybe, you know, they're within four points. well, trade deadline.
Starting point is 00:13:48 No, they can't trade. Maybe that whole shit stuff that happens every year. Right. No, they're last in the league. Finally, everyone can look and not be confused. And then they hear you. Well, in fairness, in fairness, I was specific to Nazim Khadry. Now, I did say that he likes the core.
Starting point is 00:14:09 I did say that. I did say that. So I'm not going to retract that. And what I reported was that ownership. has told people that they're not interested in trading Nazim Kadri. They're not trading Nazim Kadri. But we're having this conversation, what is it, 7th of November? So I said that, you're right, on television, November 6, 2025.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Let the record indicate. Now there's some caveats to this. Owners, managers, coaches, and players can change their mind. You know, look, it's a shock to know that Nazim Kogh and his family love Calgary, right? He loves playing for the flames. He wants to win with the Calgary Flames.
Starting point is 00:14:56 And that's, you know, before the 1000 game celebration this week, that's current status of Nazim Kadry. But if this team flounders and you get closer to the trade deadline, who's to say, Nas, where he's at in his career, doesn't go,
Starting point is 00:15:15 this is a tough spot. And I don't want to be part of a renovation if you're using an R word, right? I just don't have enough runway left here. And I want to win. I want to win. And so there is opportunity for some minds to change.
Starting point is 00:15:35 Maybe that's the owner's mind that changes. Maybe his mind is changed by Craig Conroy in the management group. And there's lots of voices as you guys, as you guys know in that process, maybe it's Cadrick. We don't know. But when I talk about the core, I think we also have to be mindful here, guys. What are we talking about? I mean, from the outside looking in, I would include Rasmus Anderson in that core. But Murray Edwards' ownership, these aren't dumb-dums. I mean, they're looking at contractual situations. If you can't get a deal done,
Starting point is 00:16:06 which it doesn't look like it's going to happen with Anderson, well, of course, that's a trade piece. That's a trade piece. So that core maybe isn't as large as some of the fan base is looking at. Yeah. And of course, I'm having some fun with you. The other thing is, too, that, yes, it is November 7th. Now, I'm not a shrewd negotiator. You sure aren't, Dean. I have never done well for myself in any capacity when it comes to contracts or negotiating.
Starting point is 00:16:35 But I do know this. If I had an asset or if I had something that someone else deemed desirable, I would not come out and I would probably try and steer away from well we're in a bad spot. I mean, we'd probably just take about, we'd take anything. Whatever you do.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Yeah, you know, pennies on the dollar. No, I would try. We're not, I have, why would anybody, I love that. It's very important to me.
Starting point is 00:17:01 You, it, there's different layers to it. Right. Craig Conroy, it's, oh, no, we're looking to improve.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Well, you want to send the message to your dressing room that you're trying to find help that you're not just sitting on your hands doing nothing. Oh, no, there's a player on the market. No, we love him. I would take something pretty special. But no, we're not really. There are some games that are played as well. Yeah, to a degree. But I think we also have to be careful here. Let's look through it through a lens of ownership. And it's different than management or anyone else involved in the organization. because Edwards and company are looking at the new building coming
Starting point is 00:17:40 and probably have done their due diligence. I think we've talked about the whole Detroit remodel rebuild, right? And I'm reminded of the conversation I had with Mark Chipman and the Winnipeg Jets. And before they extended Shifleyn Hellebuck, he did that research. And he talked to other owners, high-level executives, with clubs who have been through the dark of going through, a full rebuild and recognized in Winnipeg it just wasn't going to fly you can't go through a seven year eight year nine year rebuild you know now you look at the Detroit red wings and eyesman and
Starting point is 00:18:17 company you're doing the McMahon strut because everything everything is clicking but it took a decade to get there and and can Calgary sustain something like that probably not probably not so yeah I mean, the owner is grasping on the pieces that he knows they're going to keep his organization competitive. And a guy like Nazim Kodry keeps it competitive, and he's under contract. So why wouldn't you want to hold on tight and make sure? And it's not like he did this in a public forum, right?
Starting point is 00:18:50 And he's probably somewhat annoyed that a guy like me found out about it, to be fair. But that's just the way the business says. I understand the angst from a fan-based perspective, but I don't think there's anything wrong with the position of Murray Edwards or anyone else there. Who runs the best operation? Florida's one, they've gone to the finals three years in a row. Yeah. But they were terrible.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Even in one of the greatest destinations to live, nobody wanted to go forever. Tampa Bay, they've been good, but they were down and out a little bit for a while. Vegas has run a pretty tight ship. I'm just, I look, right? Like, who's been middling all long and who's looks good? You know what I mean? Like, there has to be cycles of success to a certain extent.
Starting point is 00:19:43 Boston was really good for a really long time. They might have been, but I'm just, you look at Anaheim. They look pretty damn good. Well, yeah, they were terrible. Yeah. You know, Dallas is another team that comes to mind, right? Yeah. You know, Dallas is a team that, you know, kind of is Carolina.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Carolina. But I think Adela. and I, hey, when you can, now granted, Amigo Randin was part of the trade, but when you can move a young piece like Logan Stankovin, right, then you know that you're a real well-structured organization. And they have that in Dallas. But Red, as you're talking about this and asking,
Starting point is 00:20:20 the first team, first team, with all due respect to the others, because there are so many well-run organizations. And the best run are the owners that are involved but don't get in the way of their general managers and their hockey operations department from functioning the way you have to function with a focus on long-term success. And I'm reminded of the Vegas Golden Knights
Starting point is 00:20:46 when they broke into the National Hockey League and nobody could have predicted they were going to be that good that quickly, right? But the owner there, Bill Foley, has told Kelly McCrimmon, George McPhee, the head of hockey operations here, you do whatever you got to do. I want to win a Stanley Cup every single year.
Starting point is 00:21:02 It's impossible, obviously. That's not attainable. But when you have that direction from ownership and you're allowed to make calculated and creative hockey decisions, oh, that can be a fun time, I think. But yeah, you've got to dangle it out there every once in a while as McCritman has.
Starting point is 00:21:22 And you have to have a destination of choice, which Vegas is. But for me, it's hard to top teams, Vegas, Dallas. I would throw Winnipeg in there as an outlier. Is ownership like that in many spots? Sorry to cut you off a little bit there, but, you know, that is a great, he's got lots of money, and he's got the destination,
Starting point is 00:21:42 and he's got guys that are doing a good job for him. They're making something like, are most owners? Like I think about Buffalo, and it's like, well, Pagula can't just, he's got the wealth to do it. Yeah. But if he's looking at it as some sort of business. this operation. They don't have the dough or the destination to just, hey, like, is that, I'm sure that all
Starting point is 00:22:07 owners want heads up, hey, we're making a mover, we're trying to go this direction, or we're going to do this. Yeah. Is it rare to have that sort of response or carte blanche a little bit? A little bit rare, I would say, sure. You know, I think Colorado, I mean, every year this team is a top contender to win the Stanley Cup. and it's based on obviously
Starting point is 00:22:30 than the players that they have. That's where it starts. But when you look at the bigger picture of the Colorado Avalanche, there's a team with one of the wealthiest owners, period. Not just in hockey, period, right? And yet they still operate more or less as a budget sensitive team, right? So that's not necessarily financially resources, ways, going all in. But as you're asking, like I'm thinking,
Starting point is 00:22:56 the league has done a good job. job, I think, of finally vetting out the problematic owners, right? You know, like we had Bill Armstrong of Utah in Toronto this week. I wasn't able to attend, but I know he held court with some of the local media people here. And he wasn't making light of it. It was a statement of fact. And now it's near impossible to compare what the Utah mammoth are now is compared to what Arizona was in a previous life, just from a resources perspective.
Starting point is 00:23:34 And the fans out there are going, yeah, well, you know, so they're not getting wagoo as part of their pre-go. No, that's nonsense. That's not what we're talking about here. We're not talking about high-end creature comforts. For some organizations, that's part of it. But you just need the simple things inside a hockey operations department to function. and Ryan Smith has done that in Utah times a thousand, right?
Starting point is 00:23:59 So any excuse has been eliminated. And that stuff kind of matters. So there isn't really a team. I hear horror stories about this owner or that owner, but none of that is resource-driven. A lot of that has to do, honestly, without competitive these men are. They become billionaires by being dumb-dums.
Starting point is 00:24:19 I mean, they're super good at what they do from a business platform, and they expect the same from their pro sports franchises. And when they don't get that, they get pissed off. And I get it. So I think the league has done a pretty good job of cleaning a lot of that up. Yeah. I mean, it's, I remember Ken King would always say,
Starting point is 00:24:41 he's like, if you think there's a team or a general manager out there that is running with complete autonomy and carte blanche, she's like, you're fooling yourself. You run things up the flagpole, and there's just different levels to it. You've got Tom Dundon and Carolina who feels, not Jerry Jones level, but it feels like he's very much in the mix. Oh, no, no, he's Jerry Jones level. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:01 And then to your point, it feels like Foley is a, if I'm in Bermuda and I've left my phone on the yacht, and you need to pull a deal immediately, then go ahead. Yeah. Just let me know. Yeah. What's happening with the St. Louis Blues? Last year, the Flames and Blues finished tied with 96 points, and the flames were the odd man out.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Now here they are at the bottom of the league, and there are the St. Louis Blues. Doug Armstrong, was it last year? I think he had kind of thrown out the, we're open for business. It's time. And then they turned things around. Is that where we're at right now? Yeah, I mean, full credit, I think was it our pal Franks, Zervali, who reported something about that earlier today, using that phrase open for business. And I didn't see it, but obviously across my desk.
Starting point is 00:25:48 And I chuckled because you're bang on. This is the playbook of Doug Armstrong, and I love it because it was a year, maybe two years ago. And managers don't want to go into dressing rooms. They just don't. They don't mind talking to players on the bus, on the plane, in the hallway. General managers don't want to go into the room. But I think he did. Again, maybe it was last year the year before.
Starting point is 00:26:14 It doesn't matter because St. Louis always seems to find a rut at some point earlier in the season. and Army basically went in at that point and said, I don't give a rats, you know what, what your contract protection is or what your deal looks like. I'm going to start moving bodies, and we're going to take this organization in different direction. We've leaned on our experience veterans, and if we can't do that anymore,
Starting point is 00:26:39 then I'm shipping you out, and we're going young, and we're going to take it in the teeth for a while, and the team responded. So now you fast forward to where we're at, And the team has been inconsistent, and I think that's being complimentary. You know, they beat the Oilers earlier this week, and Jim Montgomery, I think after the game or around that game said, you felt like the team had played well the previous two, three games,
Starting point is 00:27:03 and so they get rewarded. And then they lay another egg, right? And now Jordan Kairu is partly to blame. So he gets parked in the press box, and everybody's going, oh, geez, didn't see that coming. Well, Kairu hasn't been up to form. he's not 100%. He knows that. His healthy scratch was unexpected. He didn't see that coming. But why wouldn't you do that with a player of that stature? And it's not like this guy's won a ton.
Starting point is 00:27:32 You know, he's still more less than up-and-comer, but they need to be able to squeeze more out of the guy like that. And when you do it with a player of that significance, you're sending the message to everybody on that bench. It's going to be you next. Like, wake up. Like, what are we doing? And so that goes hand- in hand with Army talking other general managers and saying, hey, you want to talk about a player, let me know which player you're talking about, and I'll have a conversation. But again, history tells me because I've been down this road a hundred times with Doug Armstrong. He's one of the best at putting the bait out there. But he also, if we're talking Braden Shinn as an example, and I carried water on that one,
Starting point is 00:28:16 a hundred times last year. And Braden Shend drifted through the trade deadline. Nothing to see here. I saw him in Winnipeg. He was doing this workout in the pool. And believe it or not, you guys are going to be shocked. I was actually on a treadmill at the Delta. I know.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Yeah, I know shocking. I was on the treadmill. And he's doing a workout in the water. And he looks over and sees my fat carcass on the treadmill. And he just started shaking his head and giggling. And I don't know if he was giggling at me because it was post-trade deadline. who's in the playoffs. Or he says he laughing at me in the treadmill or felt like he said,
Starting point is 00:28:53 at a score to settle because I carried the mail on the possibility of Braden Chen getting traded right up to deadline day. So honestly, man, I think that's what it's all about. Whatever we're talking about, Braden Chen, other pieces, Cairo, just name any blues player you want. He wants penthouse value for these guys. That's what he wants. And he's not going to get at 15 games into the year.
Starting point is 00:29:17 Yeah. it's it's so we we we we kind of because we do a show every day and you you kind of have a take or an opinion and you always have to preface it well now I understand it's early and this is small sample size but we're we're into november and it's 15 games in and boy the penguins are the penguins are winning some hockey games and Montreal hasn't sagged and like you said Detroit is I mean they're nine and five and the Anaheim ducks are you talk about a team that went through a long dip but they went young and they bit the bullet and now they look to be strong. Utah's come back a little bit.
Starting point is 00:29:51 I guess of these teams that are mostly shocking to start the season, who's got the staying power to maybe be here down the stretch? Oh, that's a good question. I do feel like Utah is more of a lower to middle of the pack team. I still think there's some growing pains there. And, you know, Chris Johnson reported on the insider trading last night that Bill Armstrong's looking for a top four defenseman. He's looking for a center.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Okay, good luck. I mean, what encourages that possibility is they have a good young, you're still, you're ready to go, Red. We've got two. We got both. Yes, that's what you said. Yeah, no, 100%. So, I mean, maybe there's a possibility there.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Let's see how it all plays out. I mean, the reason that I take that sort of shopping list seriously is because I look at two teams. I look at Utah, I look at Montreal, I look at their young talent pool and what they have available that could sweeten the deal to make it make sense, right? And it's just too early for that. So I do think Utah comes back to the pack a little bit, injured by Seattle, whether or not that's a team that can hold its head up. I'm happy for Pat Verbeek in the Antioam Ducks, only because they made some tough decisions there, moved out some really, really good players brought in a decorated, very experienced coach, Joel Kwanbalt.
Starting point is 00:31:18 You don't bring in Joel if you think that you're going to be a bottom feeder again. You just don't do that. But they're not done there either. So could Verbeek be an aggressive general manager that finds a way to bolster the lineup? And then we come back to Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins. Yeah, I'm surprised. I think they're overachieving. I don't think that they're over all this good, but maybe they can be,
Starting point is 00:31:41 if their Hall of Fame or stay healthy. I mean, I did not expect Sidney Crosby would be tied for first place in goal scoring at this point, at any point of the regular season, yet there he is, right? So how much of any of it is sustainable? Don't know, but it just slaps you in the face one more time with just the parity that exists. You know, if you've got good players that get on a bit of a heater,
Starting point is 00:32:06 you can make ground. You can make ground. Yeah, it's funny. because it's Cutter Goce and Sidney Crosby tied for goals. They're 17 years apart. Like it's so much a young man's league. You've got Celebrini tied for the league leading points and gochase, whatever he is. And then Sid still manages to get it done.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Is there any kind of panic? Like those are the teams that are maybe overachieving. I mean, the Rangers, I don't know what the expectation is, but they're tied for last in the east. Well, they could win a game on home ice. That would help. I mean, maybe, again, I'll concede to red here. I'm asked about this all the time on radio.
Starting point is 00:32:47 I don't have an answer. I can't explain how this team can be that much better on the road than they are on home ice. It doesn't make any sense. I don't know. Well, you're right. I don't think there would be a rational reason. I think it's more. I would, from sitting here, I don't think those guys trust management.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Yeah. I don't because the rug could be pulled at any moment. I don't think they trust the management and what they're trying to do. I think that the talent pieces you could argue should be doing much better or worse. But I think there was so much disruption last year for no reason. It felt like to me, I'm not in there. Maybe there was tons of reason. Maybe it was a Vancouver situation.
Starting point is 00:33:32 But they make all these changes. Yeah. to go into the semifinals and it's like, what are we doing? It's a fair point. And there's a way of like, you know, you've been around,
Starting point is 00:33:45 there's ways of doing it, but it felt very public and, yeah, and muddy and gross. That was also, right? And then not with throwaway players either, right? No.
Starting point is 00:33:57 You know, you're talking about Jacob Terube, you're talking about Chris Krieger. Now more and more we're going to be talking about the future of our Tammy Panarin. Like, these aren't. You're willing to treat your captain that way? Yeah, it's a tough one.
Starting point is 00:34:10 It's a fair point. And again, if you want to get rid of your captain, there's ways to do it without being a public shit show. I guess the counter to that, though, fellas, would be this. That's why you hire Mike Sullivan and give him a bazillion dollar contract, right? Because, you know, again, this guy's been there and he's done it all. if he can't close that door, his dressing room door and say, boys, I don't know what went on here in the past.
Starting point is 00:34:40 I mean, if you have issues with management, okay, but management isn't running this room? I agree with you. I just don't know that he's ever had to handle that. And I don't know if any coaches had to handle it. If what were these rumors that I'm throwing out there might be true, I don't know. And I think Sullivan's a good, really, really good coach.
Starting point is 00:35:00 But if you've never had to manage that, part of like he was in Pittsburgh forever he had guys that were i feel like sydney leads that obviously it feels like a fairly tight-knit group with a certain connection they want to go and there's a level of professionalism right for management all the way down uh those different situation i actually feel bad for solven like big job big money in the big apple this is great you could be right i because i'll tell you know five games in all right, the players are still growing accustomed to a different style from Mike Sullivan, maybe the structure and systems and all of that coach, blah, blah, blah is different and all of that.
Starting point is 00:35:45 We're not five games in anymore, right? Like, whatever their identity is, we should know this. You're professional hockey players. You know how to play the game and whether the coach wants you to play the trap or the one two. It's irrelevant. Here's the last thing I'll say. I don't understand It's almost a cheap shot
Starting point is 00:36:03 How the F is JT Miller you're capped And the reason I say that is because if you're so disruptive On another team that the team has to dismantle And you're the captain of the next team I like how you play I like your style I think you're hell But something doesn't jive You're either a team guy
Starting point is 00:36:23 Where you don't create issues And you're all in on success for your team, which makes you a good captain, or you're not. Right. You can't go from last year at this time in Vancouver being one of the biggest problem issues in the NHL to leading a team the next year. I'm the captain.
Starting point is 00:36:44 That does not make sense to me. Yeah, but, and look, if the New York Rangers are challenging for top spot in the east or in their division, we're not having this conversation, right? They're not. They're not. So, you know, the players and the captain do have to accept the responsibility of why they're not. And if there are distractions around that team or they're still distracted by what management has done in the past, well, then ultimately that's on them. But, I mean, there have been a lot of positive surprise teams. We've talked about them here in this segment, but the New York Rangers just continue to surprise me from a negative standpoint. nobody seems to be able to answer why that is. Well, thanks for being a good sport.
Starting point is 00:37:29 I knew you'd be able to roll with it. We were just having some fun. Because you know what? As you sit here and I get, there's all kinds of fans that. They want to win. They want playoffs or this or that. And we just kind of have to sit here and run it right down the middle. We've got to try and be as impartial as possible.
Starting point is 00:37:46 But before, with Christmas coming, if you were interested on our website, nationgear.ca, you can grab a, Mission McKenna T-shirt. Interesting. It comes in black and white, different colors, and I think
Starting point is 00:38:03 make sure. Great Christmas gift. Okay, I got a homework assignment for both you guys because you're well-connected dudes, right? We love school.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Have we talked to anyone who has watched a fair amount of Gavin McKenna in Penn State this year? I don't even know who that is. Who? Like,
Starting point is 00:38:24 like this McKenna, this mission, it's just a T-shirt. It's just a Christmas gift. No, I'm just curious. So who is this year talking about? No, I did. No, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:36 We were potential to trap pick. I don't know. I don't know. That's your homework assignment, Red. I want you to watch. A watch?
Starting point is 00:38:43 Well, my kid is with the Tigers, so I got to see him last year with Willie. That's different. That's in the Western League. This is in the NCAA. Are you suggesting there's challenges a foot?
Starting point is 00:38:56 Only in the sense that it is an adjustment, huge adjustment, to go from the Canadian hockey league to playing against 20-something men. And there's growing pains.
Starting point is 00:39:09 I got all the time. Some math homework in there. I don't think he was, there was a lot of tutoring and a lot of class time down at the co-op place. Yeah. Smother now Burr.
Starting point is 00:39:23 I got, Science 101 at 8.8. What? What? That's going to be a good, I'm going to have that conversation with you. That's going to play out and be interesting. I think he's going to be terrific. Don't get me wrong.
Starting point is 00:39:38 But I just, I'm always intrigued by the jump and how hard that is. And this kid was lights out, lights out in major junior hockey. And you're playing against men. It's a different beast. I'm intrigued. Well, you've got to go. That's fine. one more quickly i'm intrigued when the schools will be able to come to a determination
Starting point is 00:40:00 of whether this is worth it or not and not that he's not good or bad or indifferent and i don't know how much money he's getting but there is a financial component to this and you're losing it's a one-year commitment i feel like there's too much meat on that phone do you got to go drugs because we can let you go uh yeah i and i guess the short answer would be we don't know um and it's It's probably a three to a five-year process, honestly, before you know. And then, you know, there's a number of good, really good teenage, 14, 15-year-old kids making their way. But what are they going to look like at 17? You know, we don't know that.
Starting point is 00:40:44 To play in the NCAA, you've got to be a special talent. And McKenna is a special talent. but when you're talking about running away with first overall as an NHL draft back, that's a different conversation. Need to see it. Right on. Thanks, Dreggs. Have a great weekend.
Starting point is 00:41:01 We'll talk to you next week. Hey, boys. Have a good one. Darren, TSN Hockey Insider, our insider here on Barnburner for the Crystal Waters, plumbing and heating insider hotline. They have a hydronic heating division. Yeah, I like those. Yeah, those are good.

It's not generally. Boy, did we get hosed on our steak down there, hey, Jack? I almost sell this place out so nobody goes. That was $80 U.S.
Starting point is 00:43:58 That was atrocious. Piece of goat. That's as bad as it gets. Cold goat we had for 80 bucks U.S. The Caesar salad was disgusting. You know what? I was thinking about that night. As Calgarians and Albertans, when we travel,
Starting point is 00:44:15 you just think, oh, go have a nice, we go have a steak. have something else. Yeah, go for pasta. Because we have the best steak you're going to have here. You can go down the street. You can, within the city limits, you'll find some of the best steak

Starting point is 00:44:58 Everybody sent their steak. Everyone's steak was cold in the middle. Cold. Cold. And so then they took all of them back. Yep. To heat them up, it was still. It was not.
Starting point is 00:45:11 I don't know how they could do it. I don't know how they accomplished. It's accomplished it. Is that a thing down there? Blue rare. No? It's like, no, medium rare would be great if you could. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Sorry. Got sidetrack. I'm looking forward to the breakfast sandwich. I've got strong opinion on breakfast sandwich. Do you? Interesting to see. Star saying it's one of the best. Well, that's good then.
Starting point is 00:45:43 What would investment say about? Depends. You're eating. eating goat steak. Not good? Cold goat steak. Is that all right? Probably good to serve me cold goat steak because I'll have less of it. Any bean salad with the goat steak?

Starting point is 00:47:56 fandom you haven't watched three plays of the bears all year you're a sports broadcaster a professional game seven world series hard to find a better event to be interested in crickets
Starting point is 00:48:13 you know what rat i saw boom watching the bears on his phone at the bar in Nashville. So don't stand up for him. I'm going to stand up for him. He pulled the game out on his phone. He's, he might be a diehard now. He's dialed in.
Starting point is 00:48:29 There's a roll. Got those boys rolling retro. No, I think you are aware of what I was doing during game seven. It's game seven. You still should have no, seen some. I was,
Starting point is 00:48:42 uh, there was video, a video earlier this week. It looked like I was singing George Jones. I think is what was happening. George Jones. Yeah. Flames, Chicago Blackhawks.
Starting point is 00:48:52 We'll get into it in the Pinder Report, I suppose. But it was not that long ago where, remember we had Dregs on. He was talking about Chicago. Rouse not great. All of a sudden, do free agents maybe not see Chicago as a destination? The city's still great, all of that. But has the brand kind of taken such a beating?
Starting point is 00:49:11 Is Connor Bedard going to be in a spot where he wants to stick around? Time helps. six, five, and three. They are one point back of a wild card spot. And Badad is starting to round into form. And that other kid that Pindersbroke. Yeah, Frank Nazar. Nazar.
Starting point is 00:49:32 Yeah, good young player. They've got talent. They're not quite there yet. But I think you said it yesterday because they beat Vancouver five to two. Connor Badard, goal in an assist, and Spencer Knight made 43 saves. Spencer Knight, kind of the forgotten guy. first round pick of the Florida Panthers goes the other way
Starting point is 00:49:47 in the Seth Jones trade. This is what a great trade for Florida. Seth Jones, this guy's unbelievable this. If Spencer Knight wants to evolve. Spencer Knight spent some time dealing with some of his own bullshit, so he's maybe
Starting point is 00:49:59 back to finding himself and be a first round highly regarded. Yeah, a first round talent and they're in pretty good shape. We can get into the Pinter Report. He's excited for the Pinder Report. Bender calling in today? God, I hope.
Starting point is 00:50:13 Anyone heard from him? Did he send Picks in for football. Yeah, I got his picks. Thank God he has. I mean, yeah, we don't need him.
Starting point is 00:50:23 What's he going to say? I kind of feel bad, but we kind of took a run at him yesterday. I never, I don't feel bad. He was taking runs at me. That's true. All we was taking runs at you.
Starting point is 00:50:33 And in fairness, the stuff we said about him, we say to his face all the time. I feel it's no difference. Just it's harder to get it out. Because he's always talking. Because he's talking. Pike came through off the top rope
Starting point is 00:50:45 yesterday with that shot. So great. Well, He's a writer. He's a poet. Rett can really get into a rant when Pinder's not there to interrupt them all the time. I get thoughtful Pike. It's just the said.
Starting point is 00:50:57 I got this guy over here in my ear. Eventually, you just kind of shut down. It's like being a prisoner and torture chamber. It's just that music and lights are blatant. It starts to twitch and spas. It's like being pinderboarded. Yes.
Starting point is 00:51:19 I'll do the thing. When people don't take shots at you and are indifferent, that's when you worry, right? Yeah, you're. If you're, if people are totally indifferent towards you, then that's when you should be concerned. But if people are still very much, if you elicit a reaction from folks, you, does that hold true in your own home? No one talks to me. I come and go.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Because I feel like. Is dinner going to be ready soon? Oh, hey, son. How was your day? Slam. Oh, I guess I should get to making dinner. Kids got to eat. Pinter report presentation of Village Honda.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Anthony up at Village Honda. Oh, he's going to be wound up, Calvary this weekend. He'd probably going on a road trip. He'd be nervous. He's probably so nervous in there. Might be a time to take advantage of him. Get in there and get a hell of a deal. Hybrid Turek, CRV.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Could be back-to-back champs for Calvary this weekend. Did I just say? sell a ridge line for $9. That's not going to happen. But you could get a hell of a deal with village honda, village honda.com. Pinder report, yep, flames game date.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Chicago Blackhawks, first of three meetings between these two teams this season. Hawks, six, five, and three, as I mentioned. Flames remain last with their record of four, nine, and two. That's correct. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:55 Chicago, they got a hat trick out of Tyler Bertuzi. Todd's boy. Yeah. Bedard's on a nice little roll. Four goals, five assists in his last six games. I can remember when I was in Buffalo,
Starting point is 00:53:09 spread in the Barn burner brand. Badard coming to town was a hot ticket. Yeah. I wonder if it's still so. I'm really disconnected from everything. Everything. So I don't know, yeah, I don't know what excites people or gets them talking.
Starting point is 00:53:26 It's Friday. Barthards in town? Yeah. Blackhawks. Original six. Maybe we should go. Doing anything? And then on the flip side.
Starting point is 00:53:33 Oh, you've got to go to Madison Hat. Macklin-Cellebrini, another recent first overall pick. He's at the top of the charts. He's got a number one record there. Is it because he's in San Jose? Do people even know? Are people excited? Well, they're going to know when you're number one in the league.
Starting point is 00:53:49 And on Team Canada. That feels like it's going to happen here. Yeah, not too. So anyway, Flamesnation.com. You can find out more about the last game, all the rumor mills that are chugging away out there. And of course, this game coming up tonight, Flamesnation.ca. Articles, thoughts, page, Pike, editorial.

You know, like this compressed schedule. They've done this. That's what they've done. They will play nine of their next 12 on the road.

Starting point is 00:57:32 lead with Cutter Goce as Drake threw out there. It's a lot of goals. Good for him. Good for him. Anyway, that was the score in that game. St. Louis, they, remember, they had lost eight of nine. Yeah, there's a shite. Dregor threw it out there.
Starting point is 00:57:50 Jordan Kairu, a healthy scratch last night. Sit your ass down, boy. Joel Holfer, 28 save shut out. Oh, the safe. of Sabres. Sabers had a seven-game point streak that ended with this game. So not all is horrible. Minnesota, the Wild got a pair from Matt Boldie. They lose three to two. Nikolai Eilers, the big off-season signing. This Minnesota thing is not, it's not, yeah,
Starting point is 00:58:17 I mean, chugging along. They had one two in a row. Now it's a setback, but no, they are not. We're supposed to be one of the upper echel. You know what they're going to have to do is round into form. Yeah. Anaheim, another seven spot retro. They beat the Florida Panthers, what, 7, 2, 7, 3, 2 nights ago? You want to come to our town? Play our team?
Starting point is 00:58:40 Touchdown. The ducks have won 5 straight and 7 of 8. They are top. You know what happens when you're young and feeling good? What's that? You get on a roll. Yeah. You don't get fatigued.
Starting point is 00:58:52 The schedule stuff doesn't slow you down. Boy, see, having any fun around here? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Life's good. Hey, Joel Quentville, you've been through this roller coaster?
Starting point is 00:59:03 Yeah, yeah. You're used to working with young talent that needs to be harnessed and directed in the property, 9, 3 and 1, tops in the Pacific. Chris Kreider, that young guy,
Starting point is 00:59:15 he's also up to, I think, nine goals. He's probably feeling young because you said you came in today. He said, need some vitamin D. He's still getting it. He's getting it.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Yeah. Dallas, they get two and an assist from Wyatt Johnston, ran in a 3.9. Hayeskinen four assists. Dallas seven game point streak ends. But that was a banger. Vegas. Tampa Bay, four in the third for the lightning.
Starting point is 00:59:38 They win six to three. Tampa has won six of seven. Florida, get a win in Los Angeles. Marchand, a pair of goals four in his last three games, six in his last five. He's not a young guy either. He saw these old basketball. That's what it is. It's early.
Starting point is 00:59:54 Medical devices. They're using. Early in the season, there will be. some taper. Another guy, Cory Perry, scored for the Kings. He's got six goals and nine points in nine games and shoot, was shooting
Starting point is 01:00:08 the old Dukes with A.J. Greer. You don't say. I don't know if he got an assist for the old hatty thing there. You've gotten older and lamer. He is getting older and yeah, he's, and I was going to grab the goal. You think, oh, so what, we'd go off your pants and not stretch past took a breakaway in from the
Starting point is 01:00:26 blue line scores. he should pee in a cup because there's something there is something going on he's not human there is some robotic like activity you know when you look into those eyes those those are dead eyes those beady blue eyes of his stubborn old god imagine if you didn't if you didn't hate the guy how great it would be to be a fan of cori perry because he's kind of the best he's still still still doing it you beating Nashville. Nashville has lost three in a row,
Starting point is 01:01:01 and Ryan O'Reilly had a, I think he said he was, quote, pathetic last night. Well, maybe he shouldn't be out on Broadway. Dan, right. I was six-foot pass to save my life, so I reckon I have much success of, you know, I'm playing pathetic like that. So it's, yeah, it's stupid.
Starting point is 01:01:20 I don't know the answer. If I've won good year in my career, and I don't have any answer, that's for sure. He's not, truthfully, I'd say he's, you can hear his voice break and he's emotional there. Probably taking on more than he should be. It's a team that's losing these games, but his name's in the room sport. His name's in the rumor mill. Last year of his contract is he going to be traded.
Starting point is 01:01:48 But, uh, pick him up. We need center. Yeah. Tim O'Meier tied the game with just over a minute left. and then yes per brat game winner big win for the devil's over those two teams dean they're near the tops in their division dougie hamilton lower body injury in the second and didn't return brother can't stay healthy wow the baggage here i don't know what's in there what's they expect this guy's carrying his own bags now maybe had a samsonite issue yeah getting off the bus
Starting point is 01:02:25 Noah Dobbs and two assists. Jacob Dolbush, 24 saves. Boston, five straight wins. They beat Ottawa three to two in OT. That's last night. This evening there's four games, one of which involves the Calgary Flames, as we have prefaced earlier in the segment.
Starting point is 01:02:41 I feel like Friday night's a better night for games. It's Friday night. It's Friday night. It's Friday night. Is that a song? Detroit. It hosts the Rangers. Original six matchup, Dino, let's go.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Another original six is Minnesota plays the Islanders. Yes, sir. Mike Bossy. Yeah. And the Jets. Take on the Sharks. J-E-T-E. That's right.
Starting point is 01:03:10 J-E-T-E-Jets. Oh, baby. There's nothing quite like jerseys and uniforms that engages fans. When, if a team comes to, out like your Buffalo bills like hey look at our icy hot jersey oh the codes text me about those jerseys I'm like these are terrible
Starting point is 01:03:32 these are bad these are great woo yay boo people get all wound up there's some Olympic game or something coming next year just one I think and you have to wear uniforms for that team Canada's hockey team
Starting point is 01:03:49 I believe it's probably both men's and women's side will be wearing uniforms and they were unveiled yesterday. Strength of a diamond. Every stitch reflects our resilience, pride and belonging, forged through time and pressure. Canada's 2026 Olympic Jersey, a symbol forged in ice. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:04:15 So there are three. There's only two there. One is basically all black. Can't we get a picture of all three? We can get a picture of all. You know what, this is typical Pinder bullshit. It kind of is. I mean, why wouldn't they put the third one on the video?
Starting point is 01:04:29 That is dope. I like the jersey. I just think it's stupid if there's three. We don't even get to sleep. There are, you can just leave that up. There are many who don't like it. Well, like you said, people are idiots, Dean. Some of the issues that I, again, I'll be it briefly, read online, the white jersey.
Starting point is 01:04:48 The stripes on the arm, they're different colors. It's not the same color of red. one is the bottom one is darker than the top one. Okay. And, and if you turn, if you turn this rig around, the stripes don't go all the way around. They come out to about your kidney area and then stop so that there's just kind of white on the back. Well, you've got to have room for the stop sign. Maybe. I, uh, I'm fine with them. Put names and,
Starting point is 01:05:21 yeah that's terrible I hate it Dean yeah it would be so much better if the stripe went all the way around yeah Courtney you idiot and I'm not sure if that they do it color is that both red um are those the same reds
Starting point is 01:05:38 uh you know what explaining to do cheer for the Americans yeah the font the font of the name bars people don't like oh no why are they wearing black It's red and white and it should never be black in a Canadian jersey. I kind of could see that story.
Starting point is 01:05:58 It's red and white. It does make sense. But you know what else? It's okay. They don't have to wear the black ones. They can just make them available. People like to wear black because guess what? It's thinning.
Starting point is 01:06:08 Black's thinning. Yeah. Some of us need that. Not you anymore. You see sandwiches. That's why you're wearing neon and pastel colors out of them. So there you go. People hate.
Starting point is 01:06:21 I love them. Seven minutes, Rhett. I love them. People hate things. Us? No, I just in general. But you knew that was coming because people hate things.
Starting point is 01:06:34 Wow, you know what's also nice is that people have a place to go bitch. It's true. Yeah. What would we do if we didn't have that place to go and just? And felt the need and it was very important for everyone else in the world to hear that you have an opinion on everything that happened. that happened. Two different colors of red, W-T-F. Yeah, I'm going to gift that.
Starting point is 01:07:00 There was a football game. I know you were all penguins. You were penguins and peanuts last night. I was back and forth because I thought you were an idiot yesterday with your picks, and I proved to be right. I don't know what. Oh, that, yeah, yeah. You did throw the I-N-T.
Starting point is 01:07:17 It was good of Gino to fake an injury and make it real obvious that he was kind of hurt, but when he needed to run was fine. Felt that was. Got sacked six times by the Denver defense. The Raiders should have won this football game. They really should have. Penalties, Dean. Penalties sold them back and drop pass by some dust or wide receiver.
Starting point is 01:07:38 Come up. Catch the ball. Are the Broncos? Are they horses yet? I don't know if they're good. That's the saying yesterday. I don't know if the Colts are good, the Patriots, or the Broncos. did I send you this the one sad thing yeah yeah so okay let's take a look so the not well okay
Starting point is 01:07:55 there's this one yeah okay is there another one uh I don't know if I said it to you only two times in the last 40 years as an NFL team had a game with 10 or more penalties more penalties than points more penalties than first downs an entire quarter without a first day oh under a hundred yards rushing under 150 net yards passing and a missed field goal it's only happened twice in the last 40 years, both happened last night by opposing teams in the same. So they were both equally bullshit. Neither the Raiders nor the Broncos top those. When this Thursday night stuff started, it was god awful.
Starting point is 01:08:33 Yeah. And then there's been the odd game now that's been more entertaining, but then there's also dog shirt. Yeah. What about a Friday? One more day. I don't know how that, uh, I'm serious. If you're the league, if you're looking at it and going, this is probably they're getting enough viewership. They're like, I don't care if the game's good or bad.
Starting point is 01:08:53 But maybe Friday, may? Yeah, I don't know. One more? A lot of times they're either blowouts and the good team just cruises or we get some of this kind of nonsense. But yeah, the Broncos, so they've won seven in a row. Who have they beaten? The three and six, Jake Browning led Bengals. Love Jake.
Starting point is 01:09:17 The two and seven, Gino Smith led raiders. by three points, the 3 and 5 Davis Mills led Texans by three points, the 1 in 7 Justin Fields led Jets 1311, they beat Jackson Dart and the 2 and 7 Giants by one point
Starting point is 01:09:35 and the 1 and 8 Cam Ward led Titans by one score. So maybe do some of this. Look a little deeper than just the record when it comes to the Maracos. You picked them. I kind of did.
Starting point is 01:09:53 Yeah. Bad news for Antonio Brown. Former NFL wide receiver looks to be in, I don't know if you can classify it as bad news. Bad person. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? Like bad news is like, I don't deserve this. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:14 Okay. Troubling. There you go. Yeah. Arrested on an attempted murder charge. Stemming from a shooting after a celebrity boxing event in Miami. Well, at least he failed at it. That's why I never go to a celebrity.
Starting point is 01:10:29 I get asked all the time. You know, Steinberg's fighting Francis. Are you coming? I'm not doing it. Someone's going to get shot. Brown is accused of grabbing a gun from a security guard and firing two shots at a man. He'd gotten into a fist fight with earlier in the evening. Took the gun right from the security guard.
Starting point is 01:10:49 Give me that out of the guy that he was already. he fight with? Bang, bang. Flaw's the guy. To Dubai. Or was it in Dubai? Uh, sorry. Miami. But he's, then he, he went up to Dubai to get away.
Starting point is 01:11:02 Oh, he's got out of your flood. That's fleeing. Yeah. Yeah, you can't flee. Not to Dubai anyway. Flight rules. Send your ass back back. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:11 A second degree murder charge carries a maximum 15 year prison sentence. So, uh, I mean, we're not, he needs some help. Yeah. He's, like we said, it's an attempted. So that's the positive. It was unsuccessful.
Starting point is 01:11:28 Now, I, again, I didn't get that deep. He is a key. Stemming from a shooting. I don't know that the man he was shooting at actually was shot. There was some grazing of the bullets is what I think I read.
Starting point is 01:11:43 So luckily no one's died here. But the man, and again, just to be serious. for a moment. Somebody put on online interviews of him from earlier in his career because the joke, oh, he's CTE or whatever.
Starting point is 01:11:59 And this has all the makings of someone who's suffered head injuries and is a troubled person. Moving on. Anything positive out there? Cavalry FC.
Starting point is 01:12:16 Oh. Looking to go back to back. They are in Ottawa ought to take on at Letico. There you go. And now give me the fight song. What fight song? The Calvary, forget the song.
Starting point is 01:12:35 Ola, Ola, Ola, Ola, Oleg, O'Le. Beautiful. Yeah. Go get it, boys. Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, 3 p.m. Mountain time will be shown on TSN. The, both teams, oddly, defeated Forge to get to this point. And not only do you get the CPL title, but you get a birth into the 2026
Starting point is 01:13:01 Concaf Champions Cup. Is that where you play Macy or Messi? I don't even know. I don't think so. You know, Pinder's a bit of a fraud, I think. No. Because we were in Nashville. And as it turns out, there was a big, like an ML.
Starting point is 01:13:17 Remember when he was harassing me and I had to say, you're an idiot, have you ever been gone to a World Cup? Right. Oh, you're a real soccer fan. Yeah. And now you're finished? because whatever is inter-m Miami. Mr. Huge soccer fan.
Starting point is 01:13:28 Lionel Messi's team was in Nashville when we were there. He didn't even know about it. No, but he's a huge soccer guy. Massive. Watches it every weekend. It's dialed in. So it's a playoff game? Get out of here.
Starting point is 01:13:42 Frue, fru, fake soccer. I feel like we probably should all have a sit down. Feels like there's some real kind of pent-up stuff that comes out when he's not around. No, we could. What? If you sit down, it goes the wrong way. It comes
Starting point is 01:13:58 to shanko. This is better. Hey, would you and Pinder like to? No. If I'm not getting paid, I'm not going anywhere with that guy. I sat by him during game seven.
Starting point is 01:14:16 We were dialed in. Yeah. I was holding his hand. I told him you can't stand. He stood up. We were winning. And he stood up out of his bar seat to stand in wards. I'm like, what the,
Starting point is 01:14:26 you're doing? Sit your ass down. You want to jinx this? You know how you get? Yeah. You don't want to be jinxy. He was jinxed him. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:36 It's Pinders' fault. And the third brace coach. That was a rough go. Looking back. It was great. Like, I'm a Jays fan and I had fun. I thought it was very entertaining, but I didn't get upset.
Starting point is 01:14:50 No. I think there's some Jays fans that are still having a very hard time. Oh, yeah. Because I think they thought they were going to win because they had a series lead and everything. They kind of got screwed. And then last, the game six,
Starting point is 01:15:04 The ball thing. I didn't really say that. And then you look at that, was 18 innings, like if one little thing, remember that Davis Schneider, if he's, he's kind of there and if he's safe,
Starting point is 01:15:16 or maybe if he even holds up a third and doesn't go, then he comes in on a, like that sort of thing. Well, congrust to the dog show, Jack. Time to eat. The Village, Village Haunted presents.
Starting point is 01:15:29 The Pinda Report. God love you, Ryan. God love you. another week with Otto take it delicious swing by Village Honda

Starting point is 01:16:12 No. You don't, you don't want people to see you eat or you're, I actually don't want people to see me eat because it's disgusting when you have to watch someone eat. It's not a pleasant. Well, you look great right now. What the hell just happened there? We had a power surge.
Starting point is 01:16:27 No, it's, I think what it is. Jack? How is it? Everything still working. I haven't taken a bite. Why? I'm waiting for you guys.
Starting point is 01:16:37 Go ahead. We're going to break bread together? Can you go one shot on retro? No, don't. They don't want to see it. Of course they do. So Star sent this over? Yes, sir.
Starting point is 01:16:51 Shouldn't he be working instead of eating sandwiches and sending us sandwiches? What's the bread situation? So they've taken like a chunk. There's some sweetness. Look at the side. It's like they've taken a chunk of the loaf and then look at the bottom. Show the people the bottom of the, It's still solid.
Starting point is 01:17:10 Yeah, so it's a solid part. It doesn't go. This is a good salad. Can I get it off me? Another chunk of bacon or two would be good. Is it, what kind of bacon is? It's just like run of the mill or is it some kind of maple deal? There's definitely a sweetness to it.
Starting point is 01:17:36 I don't know if it's in the bacon or the bread. I think it's just you. It's a French toast. You're a sweetheart. We'll do our football picks for Bet365. Game props. props totals the money line whatever your bet is it's never ever ordinary at bet three six five download the app get in in the game must be 19 or older the thing about bet three six five
Starting point is 01:18:00 they don't control the games don't be upset at bet three six five because maybe last night's game was a bit of a dud and that's the thing about dud games if you got a little stuff if you got a little bit three six five action going in your life all of a sudden you're who let's go block kicks let's come on now that's be great look how scared pender is he's only going three games chicken. Can I have the scarf to wipe? No. Jack, can you go get some some napkins or something?
Starting point is 01:18:32 Yeah, I'll start walking through picks and you could get our man some paper towel or something. Also, well, I'll go through the Pinder Picks here and I will call up my bet 365 just so I can kind of walk you through what's happening here. That's super easy because I got the app in my phone. And it's all right there. He's got the Patriots.
Starting point is 01:18:54 minus five, the Patriots have had a hell of a good season. They're on the road in Tampa Bay. The bucks, I believe, are coming off a buy. Bucks have been good. That's not the right line. So it's either Pinder has messed up or you've messed up. The Pats are plus two and a half on the road in Tampa Bay. That's way better.
Starting point is 01:19:20 Pats minus five. Or I'm on. No, you're right. That's on me. Okay. Panthers, they are five and a half point favorites at home. So I'm guessing he's taking the Patriots, but it's plus two and a half. Yes, Pat's plus two and a half.
Starting point is 01:19:40 Okay. So they're getting that on the road against the Tampa Bay box. They were tremendous. Everybody was pumping up Baker Mayfield as MVP. It's quite just a little bit. Mike Evans done there. Bucky Irving has been out. Maybe he's back this week,
Starting point is 01:19:57 but it's been a bit of a soft little spot here for the E-box. Panthers at home against the New Orleans Saints. Five and a half point favorites are the Panthers. Pinder is not, he's not afraid. He's going to take the Panthers at home. And then the Vikings, they're getting McCarthy back. They are four-point favorite.
Starting point is 01:20:18 They're getting four points, pardon me, at home against the Baltimore Ravens, who are the Ravens back. Jack are the Ravens back? Looks like it. Looking at the other three donkeys on the screen, they think so. That's what we believe.
Starting point is 01:20:32 So Pinder, Weird, the contrarian to the group with his record of 12 and 17, he's looking for three big wins. There we go. Retro, give us your picks.
Starting point is 01:20:41 Those are the bills at the top there, do you know? They're the top of the food chain, so you take the bills, minus nine and a half. I don't know who they're playing. It doesn't matter. It's irrelevant.
Starting point is 01:20:49 They're the Buffalo bills. Run the ball. They do it all. Go, bills, go. Who do the Jags play? Do you have it there? They're in Houston to play in Texas. Who's the quarterback for Houston?
Starting point is 01:21:00 It's Davis Mills. Oh, old DM, direct message. David Mills, he's horseshit. Jags aren't. They're going to go on a run here. Another win. Yeah. The Lions.
Starting point is 01:21:12 What up last weekend? It wasn't good. Blip on the radar? Yes, Dean. Yes. They're going to go and smack over the hell they're playing against. Yeah. And I am.
Starting point is 01:21:22 It saddens me to say this because I don't want the bills to have to beat Ravens at home into playoffs, but that's what's going to happen. The Ravens are good. They're back. Lamar's back. Look out. So last week, you went home teams. Look at, I love these home teams.
Starting point is 01:21:38 Now you're going all favorites. Yeah. There you go. This is a week for you. Oh, I'm coming. Really put some respect on your name. Get over 500.
Starting point is 01:21:48 I'm going to get over 500 here. And distance yourself from this group that has had a rough go. I am going to take the Colts. Look at Jack and me. We got Bill's, Ravens, Colts, we're almost the lockstep here, Jackie Boy. Colts, minus six and a half. They lost last week.
Starting point is 01:22:07 It was a down game for Danny Dimes. They made a big trade this week. Big trade. Sauce Gardner. And they're playing the early game. Where are they? That's why I didn't take it. I was going to take the Colts,
Starting point is 01:22:22 but it's 6 a.m. Berlin. Good football. They're in Berlin. They're bouncing back is what they're doing. That locker room sees sauce gardener come in. Ownership spends big picks and dough to bring in this guy. Fellas.
Starting point is 01:22:35 Fellas. We're for real. Let's go. They're back. Minus six and a half. You can eat that? Huh? You can eat that?
Starting point is 01:22:44 Go ahead. Ravens. They're in Minnesota. I'm on the other side of Pinder on this one. I think that the Ravens are bad. I don't know. Yeah, McCarthy's back for the Vikings, but I have no problem taking the Ravens minus four. I think that's actually some really good value.
Starting point is 01:23:04 I'm with you retro on the Bills. They're in Miami to play the Dolphins. I know it doesn't matter to you, but. They like beating up on the Miami. Dolphins are broken. The Steelers plus two and a half. I'm, you know what, I'll just say that's who I'm taking. I'm going to let Jack give his rationale as to why.
Starting point is 01:23:20 And also on the other side of this, Jaguars, what do you like about the Texans? I don't think Davis Mills is as bad. It's like, oh, geez, Stroud has not been very good. He could be as good or better as Stroud. When your coach is playing Stroud, ahead of you, that usually means that if Stroud's not good. No, I understand.
Starting point is 01:23:42 I just don't think he's had a good year. And I don't think the Jaguars are very good. What? The receivers are in. At Dian, that day. Yeah. I'm taking a home team that's getting a point. Well, also, you're 10 games under 500, so I should buy into your bullshit.
Starting point is 01:23:57 Yeah, that's right. Jack, over to you. Over to me. Colts. Lions bounce back this week. Lions play the commanders. Jaden Daniels looks like he's going to be done for the season, probably. Lions run up every single team.
Starting point is 01:24:13 They're coming off a bad week. Colts lose to the Steelers. They're traveling to Berlin against the Falcons. I don't know what the Falcons are. they either get blown out or beat some good teams. So we'll take the Colts. It's a bad game for you guys to touch because it's over in Europe. It does feel a little bit out, but I like the bounce back spots.
Starting point is 01:24:31 I'm with you guys, Bill's, Ravens, Bills against the dolphins. The dolphins are just quit. Just throw the season. Ravens are back. Lamar Jackson. I hate to say it. They looked really good in his first game back. Who are they playing even?
Starting point is 01:24:48 I don't know. The Viking. They're in Minnesota to play the Vikings. McCarthy looks solid, but I will take the Ravens minus four. And then the Steelers, boys. Let's talk about the Steelers. Let's talk about the Steelers. Talk about the Steelers.
Starting point is 01:25:01 I didn't get to watch much of last week. It's probably a good thing. But, man, their defense showed up. Six turnovers. Sacks everywhere. And we just saw the Chargers play. They had O. Lyman going down. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:17 They've got no tackles. Steelers defense is back plus two and a half on the road Sunday day football Mike Tomlin's got the boys going that's right the steel curtain that's right I'm happy for Jack
Starting point is 01:25:32 I would say it's full of shit yeah I'm happy for him I've no take as a stealer he's last two and a half in 20 years he told us yeah but didn't watch any on the weekends I got a little bit I think it's going to be a wake-up call for the Chargers
Starting point is 01:25:47 here like you talked about their old line is been has been beat up. They went into Tennessee last week. I mean, they had an easy day. They still, they gave away 14 to the Titans to make that thing close. But to me, this is, I'm trying to read, you know what I'm doing? I'm reading my bets 365 here. I'm trying to, so what are you trying to get me to do here? I don't think you should dig into it too much. You're trying to get me to take the chargers, minus two and a half. So if they win at home by a field goal, that's all they need to do. That's it. They just beat the Texans.
Starting point is 01:26:21 Herbert's great. I'm not fooled. Don't be fooled. Road team under a field goal. I can tell by your record that you're not wanting to get fooled, you know? I'm, this is the thing. I'm changing it up. Oh. I'm thinking, I'm thinking, I'm thinking, I'm thinking, you're recognized your own weaknesses and you've decided to address them.
Starting point is 01:26:38 Nice. I've been thinking like a fan. Now I'm thinking like a sharp. I'm on this. A shark or sharp? Yep. Gotcha. Bet 365, whatever your bet is, it's never ordinary at bet 365.
Starting point is 01:26:52 That's just some of the games. There's a bunch of other games. A bunch of games. So many. Was hockey game. Were you attempted by any? Seahawks. I'll give you a bet tonight.
Starting point is 01:27:00 Flames win, Badard scores. There you go. Parlay that. Huh? Mm-hmm. How about that? How about that? I was taking the Bears.
Starting point is 01:27:14 I was a little concerned about that performance against the Bengals last week. I mean, they needed some heroics. I was not. impressed with your bears. Some heroics at the end to get that. They've got, they're at home to the giants. This Jackson Dark kid.
Starting point is 01:27:30 He's an athletic little guy. He can play. He's got no one to play with there anymore. No. Everybody is hurt. I'm just going to let it lie. Let the chips fall where they may. Hearing loss clinic.
Starting point is 01:27:51 Hearing loss. I'm not worried about it anymore because pender's not here yelling him. know it's there's peace in the valley peaceful if you've got a pender in your life stop by the hearing loss clinic and they'll get you sorted out yeah it's it's less about hearing hearing aids or to help it's about hearing protection custom ear protection for you just the one side for sure um Travis and Sabrina rose they're great calgarians they've been recognized numerous times in the city for their generosity and philanthropy and on top of all of that they are the best in the business when it comes to hearing loss.
Starting point is 01:28:28 It's not about hearing loss or impairment. It's about empowering people to be socially active, engaged with loved ones and friends where. Be who you can be. If you struggle with hearing, you may not even notice, but you're avoiding certain things. You do that.
Starting point is 01:28:42 Where are you sit in a restaurant? I caught myself the other day when we were in Nashville doing the, uh, right? You're kind of, I don't know what you're saying, but I'm nodding and kind of engaged in the conversation, even though you're being left out.
Starting point is 01:28:55 And that's a big part of it. Studies also show the health risks like dementia and depression linked to untreated hearing loss. And it doesn't need to be that way. Just get in front of it because you have the best in the business, like I say, right here in our city with five locations. There's five more in BC. Hearingloss.ca is the website. And it will, I would think, shock you when you sit in the room and they test your ears and you're hearing and they do different things. And then why don't you try these on and see if you notice a difference?
Starting point is 01:29:23 and it's amazing. If, in fact, you have some hearing loss. Well, they tell you, thanks for stopping by. You're a great gent. Yeah. Carry out your way. Yeah, for sure. That's what it was like for me.
Starting point is 01:29:40 Well, what are you up to this weekend? I don't know. You go on a medicine hat? I do have to go to a medicine hat, yeah. You want to go together? It's a day trip. We're leaving in the morning. I got a place rent, tiny house.
Starting point is 01:29:55 Yeah, you were saying. So it's just sitting there empty right now? Yeah, very important. Why'd you rent for a week? There's lots to the story, Dean. Yeah. Yeah, I don't just talking to you. You're like, I might be here.
Starting point is 01:30:10 I don't know where I'm going to. I don't really know what I'm doing. But you've been here most days. So that's nice. Nice having you around. Yeah, it's great. Great to be here. Yeah, I wasn't going to miss out on Pinder being gone.
Starting point is 01:30:22 That's right. Red's top five before we head out for the weekend. Top five, Rhett? Top five breakfast. sandwiches. I'm going to start with Mickey D's. Okay. It's classic. It's good. Which ham, sausage,
Starting point is 01:30:42 which I like the sausage. Okay. The ham I feels like it was a little chewy and a little, yeah. No, I like the sauce. With, with the egg. Well, what I do, yeah. Yeah, I get it with the egg and I take the top off of one half, one half of the Yeah. And then I put a hash brown on.
Starting point is 01:31:00 Really? Yeah. Because yeah, whether it's the top or the bottom, one is the cheese is glued to it, so you're kind of committed. The other one's just kind of hanging out. You can fire him out your car window. Yeah. Number four. Number four, homemade.
Starting point is 01:31:17 And I'm just going to say homemade because you can do it or the F you want with it. Sometimes I put taco meat in it. Sure. Whatever you got hanging around? Yeah. Yeah. So I can't really make it as specific. What's your carb of choice for the English muffin?
Starting point is 01:31:33 I like the English muffin. You can buy the extra crispy. English muffin, which I actually quite enjoy. Okay. Are we toasting those things? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Of course.
Starting point is 01:31:42 If you're, if you're putting egg, do you have like a, like a ring that you pop the egg into that they have done that? I have done that. I've done scrambled. I've done wraps. Like,
Starting point is 01:31:51 the beauty of the homemade. Homemade is that I can. Yeah, you call the shots. I call all the shots. Yeah. I can eat two or seven. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:32:02 50? Feels like a lot. I'm going to say number three. Rockies sausage house in the farmer's market the chorizo
Starting point is 01:32:14 rap effing phenomenal just top and phenomenal now be careful because when they give it to you yeah it's hot oh yeah
Starting point is 01:32:27 right so you got to be careful they give it to you hot unlike that steakhouse in Nashville where they take the meat out of the fridge and then just put it on your plate. Straight to, yeah.
Starting point is 01:32:40 Forgot the fire. I'm going to go. Egg club, what I just had here is number two. Wonderful. And number one, the bacon, avocado crisp from the Holy Grill. That's been, uh, it's right. It's been up there for a long, long time in my world. And, uh, I would not argue if somebody else wanted to come in and shuffle those
Starting point is 01:33:05 Top five's around. Tell us about the bacon avocado. I don't even know what's all on it. They've got spinach and lots of mayo and a brioche bun and a fried egg and crispy good bacon and avocado and they've got
Starting point is 01:33:22 like a pickled there's some pickled onion or pickled something on there. It's a pickled vegetable on there. Yeah. Jack's by your house. You should get one. It's good.
Starting point is 01:33:34 Yeah. It's real good. And you have been on that. It almost... It almost feels like it's trying to fool you into being healthy. Because I got some spinach or avocado here. People have avocado toast. That's healthy.
Starting point is 01:33:47 Then there's some delicious bacon and all kinds of other shit. That bacon is crisps. Yeah. It's real good. Now, this is an interesting addition. It jumped right into number two. Number two. I love how it's not cut at the bottom so you don't have...
Starting point is 01:34:03 Yes. Look it. not cut like you. Ved out. No, I'm saying there's no slop on my shirt. Right. I find that's the biggest challenge when it comes for me to pick a breakfast sandwich.
Starting point is 01:34:22 Because if you put it on a biscuit, a home style biscuit, I'm not fooled, it's crumbly, it's fallen apart, it's bullshit. Dry. No thank you. Sometimes the English, muffins.
Starting point is 01:34:37 When are these from? They can be... Who baked these and when did they bake them? Because this is like two pieces of friggin cardboard. The croissant is nice, but it's very
Starting point is 01:34:53 bad for you. Is it? It's loaded with butter. It's almost all butter. I'm okay with that. Best med would probably. But even there, yeah, It can get a little greasy.
Starting point is 01:35:07 You've got some egg, and then you've got bacon or sausage, and then the... I always forget about the croissant. Yeah, the croissant's a nice vessel. The bagel is, you're now into another tier. I'm on eating a bagel. I don't get the bagel. The bagel and the, what did you call the other thing? The biscuit.
Starting point is 01:35:26 The biscuit, they're in the same, what are we talking about? Yeah, I don't know what I want to. That's what you're doing. Yeah. It's the same thing. You're eating a cardboard ball. I don't, that preosh bun there again. Oh, it's a breakfast sandwich.
Starting point is 01:35:42 Well, that feels more like a big, I don't care. Just make it good. And a bagel is not, it's chinty. Now bagel and cream cheese. What about the locks? Do you like the locks? No. Okay.
Starting point is 01:36:01 That's a hell of a top five. Well, you bring one in and try and battle me on it. I'm never. I won't do it. No, you won't. Surprised by the, I didn't even know about Rocky's sausage. You gotta have one. I'm telling them they got that like Chipotle sauce and it's chorizo sausage and scramble
Starting point is 01:36:19 and they throw tater tots right in. Is it fair to say that some days you're just, you're by yourself and you'll just go to the farmer's market, not to shop, but just to eat. Some days? Okay. Weekly. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:41 It's a great spot. I was doing some running around a couple weeks ago. by myself, of course, middle of the day, after the show, did that some stuff to do. And I don't know, I'm guessing you've never done it, but I was right by IKEA. Oh, I don't go in there, but I know what you're saying. I can hammer some meatballs right now.
Starting point is 01:37:02 They're delicious. So I went into the restaurant that is IKEA, had a bite to eat and then left. Used to go to Zellers, right out of IKEA. Would you like to? Like, yeah, I'll have the meatballs, gravy on the, yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you want the jam? Yeah, okay, sure.
Starting point is 01:37:22 Because they got the kind of whatever that is. Lingenberry. Yeah, some green peas in there. Healthy, delicious. Like six bucks for here. I don't even know what it does. Tell me, I can be so good. Yeah, I know we can do the, uh, do a super chat, I suppose.
Starting point is 01:37:41 Because, yeah, they've been coming in. Now, that's not a, not a big day. But it started early. Apologies, if you were in. early. But it is Pinder related, so we'll get to it. Money raised here goes to the U-Sitters of Calgary from Jeremy. Hey, oh, hey, Jeremy, 699.
Starting point is 01:37:57 I was at the Heritage Classic two years ago. And even though they lost, it was still a great time. No one cared about their costumes except Pinder. Move on. Yeah, whenever he talks about, it's a Pinder thing. It's like his backpack items. There's things that he will just assume. as you go down a certain, because I've worked with him for so long, and you have to, as soon as it starts going down a certain, if you could just press pause on him, but you can't. It's like, well, he's going to talk about this. And when he says this name, he will then do this. It's like Kevin Chattencirk. He's going to call him shatduces. When it's Frank Vitrano, he's going to call him the pizza man. Like it's just for the rest of time, whenever he hears these names or these things come up. So whenever the Heritage Classic.
Starting point is 01:38:47 game is brought up. He talks about Nossam Khadry and what they wore and how it was either the village people and YMCA or Dexie's Midnight Runners. So yes, Jeremy, I know. And good luck with that because you will die long before Pinder
Starting point is 01:39:05 stops referencing Dexie's Midnight Runners and the heritage classic games. Not going to relent. This was 2799. Jeremy's on a he's on a fellas drinking game going on I'm tallying up
Starting point is 01:39:21 every time Pinder brings up Dexie's Midnight Runners at the Heritage Classic so far it's 16 times since I've noticed if it gets to 20 I'll have a 20 beer weekend
Starting point is 01:39:33 you're for well I feel like we have a hand in that he's not here next week so it won't be next weekend but I could we could lead the window I was going to say
Starting point is 01:39:42 I could probably just kind of casually drift the conversation towards those sorts of things. Oh, that's one of your talents, dude. How many more? Four more? Four more. That feels like a challenge.
Starting point is 01:39:56 Yep. How, I don't want him to hear this then, though, but how long do we have? By Christmas, it's Christmas. Oh, Christmas. End of the month. Might do it twice a one day. Could be. He'll forget.
Starting point is 01:40:15 He'll do, he says so many things. things he'll forget he was talking about it. Oh, yeah. We could probably get him in like two weeks. He wouldn't even know. Because you know what? With Goddry, with Goddry being in the news.
Starting point is 01:40:33 It's, I feel like it's a challenge. We're going to try. We're going to try. So four more. 20 beer weekend. You're on, Jeremy.
Starting point is 01:40:42 Then we need footage of your 20 beer weekend. We need some video, a bit of a countdown if we're keeping track. How to mind that? fellas, Ozzy Brad update, keep punching. Pinder's kind of the conduit to
Starting point is 01:40:55 here. He's kind of the go between. I wonder if Pinder pissed him off and he's out. Well, I don't know. But he will. Because he really liked this.
Starting point is 01:41:04 I would see him off or at least regularly enough where it was a thing. And now Pinder took control of it. To be completely honest. It worries me a little bit because he was a regular in that country where people
Starting point is 01:41:20 Yeah. I mean, you could go to the store and get bit by a snake and you're done. So I hope that's not what's happened. But no, we have had, it has been a while since we've had a month. An Aussie Brad update. So we're sincerely. T's Ozzy Brad. Hoping good things there, thinking good thoughts when it comes to our longtime buddy, Ozzie Brad, who is a beauty.
Starting point is 01:41:46 Flames tonight, Chicago Blackhawks. You called it, right? You had a Flames win and a Badard goal. Badard goal, but Flames win, yes. All right. And then the. This little parlay for you. There it is.
Starting point is 01:41:59 And then they will head off to Minnesota, 6 o'clock Sunday evening. It's going to be tough going up against the steel curtain. Sunday evening. A lot of flipping back and forth. It's available in St. Paul for that one. St. Louis on Tuesday, but we'll be back before that. What a weekend we're going to have.
Starting point is 01:42:19 react to. Are we working Tuesday? Keep asking. That's right. No, we will not be. Well, certainly it's Remembrance Day, so we'll be off that day. And, but I, we'll do a show Monday. There's a lot of people like kids and school and that's You can drop your kids off here because we've got rooms. Yeah, we've got lots of trash laying out. Daycare. That's what we need. What do you want to do with those rooms, right? I was going to bring in my, uh, my medical devices. Oh, yeah. What would that look?
Starting point is 01:42:49 What kind of devices are you talking about? Well, there's all kinds of devices. You got to buy a membership to get access. You arrange the junk guy and then we'll get it set up. That's why we bring the kids in child labor. Get to work. This table isn't going to move itself. Losers.
Starting point is 01:43:07 Jack, how was the show today? Fantastic. I was late getting here. Last on, first off. I guess so. Yeah, that's what you want. that's the kind of coming
