Hi, buddies. How are we doing? It's time for another one of these.
Rabbit, rabbit. One of these.
Rabbit rabbit. Rabbit, rabbit. Indeed. It's Barn Burner on a whatever day it is.
First day stampede, Dean, rabbit, rabbit. Is it? I mean, for the show.
That's not accurate. We haven't done a show since it's been started, I don't think.
Have we been taking part? Have we been stampeding?
I was, I took the young lads, two of the young lads to the, uh,
to the midway yesterday.
Oh, yeah.
Spent some dinarrows and some,
sweated a little bit and probably a lot.
Watched a lot of...
There has been a lot of major sightings around town, Dean.
I know that'll keep you away from the grounds, probably.
Major swass is in town.
And I think is...
Right from the parade.
Yeah, taken up residents right around Stampede Park,
maybe a few of the tents.
I love watching those people walking the midway and stuff,
just dutted, right?
up and you're like you are so uncomfortable it's just jeans just like heavy denim black button up long sleeves
black hat oh yeah but you look good yeah you look good how's uh how's carrying major the major around all
uh all stamp to the real we should have a real cowboy on on maybe thursday you're looking pretty
close this is impressive shit you're basically there and and ask like on a typical tuesday outside of stampede do you
this sharp. Are you
in the same gear? Is this what you're
rocking when you're changing tractor
tire? Are you like in basketball
shorts and a beater? Right? Because you're not
going to ride in shorts and a t-shirt.
You're not doing shorts. I feel like the
Wranglers or whatever, that's 24-7.
But I do see
the t-shirt
hat, like
hat combo. Like mesh
back, let it breathe a little. Farmer.
Farmer, not cowboy. Yeah,
that's right. Yeah.
But, yeah, it's major, major swass.
Now, this is already people in the comments making note.
It's quite a duster that you've got on the go there.
I think we could put this almost at the level of Fire Chief,
which is the top of the mustache food chain.
Jesus.
That's a fucking gross.
Like, unless you want to go, like, spin-ly side microbrewer,
this is as good as a mustache gets.
It's phenomenal.
You've talked about it three years.
What's it like walking around through Stampede with that with that on?
I still had the handlebars yesterday.
One guy beaked me about it.
Oh.
A game show host.
I'm like,
easy,
buddy.
Game show host.
Really?
Like a guy you didn't know,
some stranger.
Knock over two bowling pins.
Yes.
The kids were going to throw a ball and the guy,
oh,
I got a little white there.
Oh,
for a hell.
Jeez.
Easy.
Have you got any just for men going in there?
there?
Nope.
A little bit.
Thinking about it, though, there's one side over here.
Some of those Jim Benning ink.
Just rub it in.
I don't go in here that's distressing.
Well, it's, it's uncontrollable.
I can tell you that.
It's common, Dean.
Yeah.
Die that shit.
Undefeated.
Inders still well.
No, it's all on the sideburns.
I just keep it tight here.
That's where all the gray side.
Keep it tight.
So, do they still have the zipper?
What's, uh, the,
the scrambler?
What are the big rides over at the stampede?
Well, there was one ride that was, I'm walked over.
No one in line, this big thing with just two people.
Like it was like zipping around.
Oh, yeah.
50 bucks per person.
Oh, 50?
What did you just say?
50 for 15.
No.
5.0.
And be sure to buy the USB stick to go with it.
Right.
Is that the one that goes?
Yep
They put Steinberg on that a few years ago
Remember he screamed like a girl
It was unbelievable
That was probably about 20 years ago
When you think about it, right?
Like when you think about it now, shit
There was no zipper
No, hey
Skydanser is the one
My kids were tall enough last year
And Skydanceer was the crazy
Spinning around while you're going to be
Yeah, that was our favorite
We did that a couple times
The zipper was great
I remember in my younger days
because inevitably people would lose their shit
in the zipper.
So there'd be change and stuff falling.
Ring ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
You'd hear all the...
It's like a wind term.
Oh, yeah, it was great.
It was like hitting the lot.
It was like playing the slots.
Just grab all the coins at the bottom.
I really, and especially, I was telling Ryan,
I have a bit of a sour tummy.
I don't know what happened.
It started yesterday.
I would not be good on the midway,
especially today,
but I just think in general,
I think my midday or midway your riding days are over.
Midway days are over, Dean.
Yeah.
I saw a few people, not in relation to you, but girth does come into play.
It's not a, see, it's not the girth.
Girt does come into play when.
Yeah, when you got to get the bar all the way to last week.
The O-line tried to get on the street.
Right.
Yes.
big fellows are allowed to try to get on rides some of them just a little less safe i think yeah
yeah did you go or did you do any rides were you i did more than i wanted i'll say that
you sucker you in they call you chicken what are they doing did you go on the gravatron the big
no i hate the gravitron oh i like that one you climb up the wall yeah yeah slides up the wall no
you call that centrifugal force is that what the is that what the drop a doomy thing
centrifugal, centrifical, one of the two.
A lot of kids out there acting like pusses, though.
Oh, yeah.
No, the stampede's been huge for that.
Honestly, I can't name a better spot to watch shitty teenage behavior.
Yeah, it's high in.
Exhibition grounds.
Yeah.
Good times.
12-year-olds vaping.
Things you don't need to see.
Oh, great language.
Great, thanks, respectful behavior.
Tidying up after themselves.
Just barging right to the front.
What?
Have you taken any?
Any musical events?
Have you done any of the
adult type stuff?
I went to Mercado on Friday night.
There was a band playing
and there was a lot of folk
I hadn't seen for a while.
Great time.
Had a wonderful time.
Even some GM of the Calgary Flames.
Is that right?
Wow.
Tried to avoid me, but I cornered.
Yeah, sure you did.
That's the party.
My wife is the big scenester and she's like,
oh, it's the Friday at Mercado.
and boy, if I could ever get an in, yeah, okay, whatever.
See, they're going with me.
Yeah, they are.
It's in the town.
Perfect.
Woo!
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good one for sure.
What was the food?
Oh, come on.
I didn't eat.
What?
Not eating.
Wow.
And Mercados?
I get it if you're somewhere else, like cowboys.
Oh, but it's not Mercado food.
It's not the Mercado food.
They got it kind of set up outside.
Ah, okay.
I clearly haven't been.
Pizza.
beef and a bun, that kind of bullshit.
I got no time for that stuff.
Where's the tag?
I got no time for that peasant food.
Let's go, Dom.
Where's the bestecha?
Let's go.
Now, Peter, you were,
you were, well, you know what,
let's do this.
I was going to, before we move off of Stampede.
Our buddies at Greta, I don't know if you saw,
they have been, they have been going straight,
right pinned, right to the floor
from day one,
Biz. Paul Bissonette was in on Sunday for their dasted party. So they just, it's,
they've taken our, our special little where we would do our Greta parties, our little,
yeah, the alley. They've turned that into the alley. So now the roof comes off and the doors come up,
and it is full on. And look at what they are, uh, look what they're firing out over at Greta here.
This is a little video, but yes.
Quit donking around. Come to Greta in the stampede.
Cobury's biggest seizure, baby.
No.
Look at that, son of a bitch.
No, no, no, no.
Calgary's biggest seas are chicken wings,
cheesy erincini, steak takitos,
pizza grilled cheese, pickled vegetables.
It's got two skewers.
They may as well be javelins.
Yeah, and it's a big fish bowl full of season.
Jeez.
Well done, Casey.
Well done, buddy.
Well done.
Raising the bar.
And, uh, right there too.
10th Ave.
Yeah, not far from the grounds.
You just, I'll warn you, you may not get there, though, if you start with that type of behavior.
I'm telling you, I don't know how people do this.
I got some, like you, everyone's got pals that are in sales and they got a host all week.
And, and they're doing like eight of the 10 days, nine of the 10 days, 10 of the 10 days.
Starting with a pancake breakfast downtown at like 7, 8 a.m.
straight into the sauce.
And then, oh, yeah, we got the Chuck's Firework Show.
And then we got the VIP, this concert at CalW.
well you know what it is it's like when we go to Nashville retro we're we're powerless
there's a live band on at 10 11 in the morning what are we supposed to do just walk by it's the
it's what they're doing at greta they got DJs they got bands they got all kinds of stuff what are you
going to do you can try to have Casey I think that's your pit stop between the downtown
pancake thing well you're not walking a whole way if you're going far because you're going to
need to ac yourself take care of the major the caesar the old major he's love it yeah check
out Greta, our boys and girls,
but everybody at Greta fired it up for
Stampede. You'd expect no less.
I think I could get a job there for
creepy. What would you do? Younger demo.
Short shirts.
I look good. What are you talking about?
Beer tongue.
I do look pretty deadly. I'll give you that.
Dr. Casey, I don't know.
I don't know. I won't work.
It won't work.
Fine. I won't work.
All right. Now,
Pinder, you were, you were away on the weekend for Seattle, Jason Seattle, Jason Seattle, Jason Seattle, Jason Seattle.
Been a few years since I've done Jason Seattle. It is even better than it's ever been. It's the best.
Now, what do you mean even better? Like, what would expect? Because didn't people attend with you this time that would throw a wrinkle in your?
We had four dads, five kids, and it was the dad's kids' first ever baseball trip.
which was pretty bleeping awesome.
And what I mean by better is just like,
there's just more Canadians.
The Seattle fans are now like, okay, I,
what?
No, I'm selling these.
Like, I'm not even going to the ballpark that weekend.
So it's the full takeover.
The Mariners fans that are there, you feel bad for them.
It's like if someone just barged into your home
and started having a house party at your house,
like it's beautiful stuff.
Well, don't feel too bad.
I mean, their teams leading their division, aren't they?
Mariners are pretty good this year.
J's are kind of shit.
It's okay, yeah, they're fine.
Yeah, it's a shitty division, but yeah,
and they've been good.
They beat the Jays in the playoffs a couple years ago.
They're certainly had a better spot in life.
Jays won the series, which is lovely to see,
but it's been pretty slim pickings for the last few months for Toronto.
Are your eyes going too?
No, just St. Pete.
Yeah.
So I guess just the question for you.
What, so have four dads, five kids?
Is that what you said?
May we?
Yeah, that's right.
Because you would have, yeah, you'd be taking more.
more than your fair share.
So you're,
you're over there.
What airline did you fly?
Do we.
Why do you like that?
We got spoiled, buddy.
Because I know that, you know, it can be top of your flights.
It can really start to the prices go up.
You know what we noticed.
Those damn security lines, they take a lot of time.
Uh-huh.
And then they got you lining up and you're doing the security dance and then it's
customs.
Touching you and the bags.
No, Zone A, zone 2 were boarding.
And then, oh, any kids that need any extra time?
I was wondering, because you had just gone through a nightmare hell with getting back from Vegas.
So I just wanted, which airline did you choose?
So we had a caucus and we decided we would choose no airline.
We would just find some sort of freelance vehicle.
PJ Air?
Just jet air.
Private's jet.
You flew PJ?
completely ruined. Private jet
to Seattle with the kids.
Yeah, why wouldn't you? I guess.
Totally ruined. Totally ruined.
Yeah.
Insane.
Well, I've been on them. I know.
There's no way I'd allow my children.
Like what kind of...
Yeah, they're ruined. Like I said.
Yeah, if you're going to use up your points for a PJ,
I wouldn't be taking my snot-nosed kids on a ball trip.
Yeah. Well, I sure here they were not my points, but, uh, well,
the tip of the kids.
cap to the other hardworking
dad's in the curb. What a way to live
though, hey? It's insane.
Yeah, it makes insane.
So, like, what time should we get there if it leaves it this time?
At that time?
Huh? Yeah, if we want to fly at 930, just be there at 9.30.
And if you're late, we'll just hold it.
Probably just wait. We'll just wait until you get there.
You guys want to sit down a beer? Do you want to drop on it now?
You let us know, we're ready. We're ready when you're
not bad.
Streaming the socks.
game flying over the Rockies.
Part of it makes part of me is impressed.
The other part wants to bite you in the nose.
Yeah.
Well,
that's a Pender experience.
Yeah.
It really is the Pinder experience.
Yeah.
Do they nose dive it?
Oh,
no.
No,
a beautiful day to land in Seattle.
You get the Puget sound like Washington.
No,
she's the first jet.
Well,
jet.
Flying out of Frontier,
my dad took me the company.
I had a little prop job.
Right.
And I don't know why.
I was like five.
years old i got to go for some reason and on the way home my dad thought he'd be funny and
told the pilot to scare the shit out of you yeah and i did literally yeah crying and pissing and
good wow the end of life coming so it's like the dad on the rest of the development would do that
with his kids he'd scare them within an inch of their life and then have some life lesson that's why
we don't steal our pal of the show jeff glass who's uh working with san diego gul's
I'm ducks.
He's a pilot.
And part of your training to get certain levels,
you have to literally kill the engine.
I did,
no,
no,
you don't kill it.
You nose dive it till it.
No.
Or you go up until it stalls out.
And then you have to learn how to,
I got to do that.
That was fun.
Oh,
boy.
Yeah.
So how close are you?
I mean,
I know you're not one for just bailing on things
without them coming to full fruition,
but well,
you got someone with you.
So,
yeah.
Pilots.
But I mean,
are you close?
Let's,
because I'm thinking.
The idea is not to get close, Dean.
No, what I mean is close to getting your pilots license.
Me?
Oh, yes.
I was 15 out of 40 hours, but usually it's even more.
Well, on the textbook stuff, apparently is an absolute nightmare.
You end up becoming like meteorologist.
If you don't know what you're going to do the cloud formations.
Well, I used to do weather on TV.
So I'd be.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
It's the trough lines and high pressure cells and bridge.
ridge, yeah, yeah, ridge of high pressure or something like that.
A bit of a different vibe than you ever see the weather reporters in South America?
Deadly.
If you turn on and find boom one day, you're like, oh, Jesus, this is terrible.
I mean, his clothes are tight, but this is not what I was hoping for.
It is a tight shirt in fairness.
A tight shirt in fairness.
So, I mean, I'm kind of caught up, eh?
I guess that's it.
When did we last do this show last week?
Tertster.
Yeah, right.
Not quite.
We're getting, we're going on.
There's anything going on?
Because we talk about this when we're not.
July 1st hits free agency.
Fire hose.
Yeah.
Huge amount of action.
Over a billion dollars sounded out that day.
July 2nd, things start to trickle.
Some things, though.
Don't tell me about them.
July 3rd, July 4th, July 5th.
they put the summer vacation sign on all the NHL offices.
The LRGM was happy to be heading somewhere soon.
I bet he would be.
To roll down the garage door.
We're closed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it feels like that's kind of where we're at right now,
even though it's,
I mean,
we're well past that point.
July 9th by now,
but still it's just like a kid going to the draft that thinks they're going early
and then slides and slides.
So you work,
you've made the NHM.
You've been in it.
I'm going to go.
There's a lot of teams I'm talking to.
We've heard from a lot of teams,
Redd.
Finally.
Finally.
It's my day.
My day to shine.
We're going to strike while they are.
Day two.
I mean,
there's,
yeah,
yeah,
maybe I'm going to,
yeah,
okay.
They were in the sweepstakes for Gensel,
but yeah,
they didn't have time.
Yeah.
So they're going to.
It's coming.
I can't believe my agent.
Did his phone die?
Like,
this is a big day for me.
Why is he not calling me?
I'm just, I'm sitting here waiting for him to call.
Well, that's in the ticker.
Yeah, Bill, it's your agent.
They're sweating you out.
You will take anything offered to you after September 1st.
Listen, my advice, my advice is just turn your phone on September.
Well, guarantee.
So when you say, when you say no offers, like, do you mean no good offers?
Like, what, uh, I'm just, because like, no offers makes it seem like nobody's called.
Um, and I know that can't.
Oh, that is the case.
So no one has called.
So do we need to start calling teams?
Is that how it works?
Because usually I was told it you get to UFA.
It's just a, let's go.
Let's see what we got in HL.
Hey?
A buffet.
I'm the sexiest gal at the ball.
Let's see who.
Hi, it's,
no,
no,
he's,
that's the one that plays in Toronto.
This is the other one.
I was wondering,
are you looking for somebody?
It would be.
But the thing is when you're at the draft,
you're a kid,
you still got your tire.
Oh,
you're moving.
Ford, yes.
Your career, you're still playing.
You know, you're playing.
These guys are thinking, do I got to be in Russia in August?
Where the hell am I going next year?
This is Sergey.
I want you to come play.
Make me to go.
Good money.
Cash only.
No win.
25 liters of kerosene.
There be a few guys.
Is there anybody now?
I'm kind of putting you on the spot because I haven't looked.
Who's sweating?
Are there some guys out there?
Oliver Shillington, I wonder about.
I don't want to go on that.
Anyone without a contract.
That's really broad.
up anyone without a contract right now is going it is not gone to plan if you don't have a contract
we're talking about ufa is not ours and arbitration yeah yeah yeah but like you're a straight
free agent you don't have a deal things have not gone the way you've wanted even if you know
wow it's not how you've wanted it to go and even if you thought there was a chance you wouldn't
be getting an offer early your summer is awful that's true this is all hang over you just
Lou just, yes.
It's like, well, I guess I should go to the gym.
Guess I should get on the ice and skate.
Hard to stay motivated.
Clark, we were on a fishing trip.
And Clark Wilm was not, I forget how it went.
I don't think he was offered.
He wasn't offered, he wasn't made a,
they didn't give him a qualifying offer.
That's the words I'm looking for.
Yep.
But the, and he was with the flames.
And you could hardly get a signal up with the fishing camp.
But the,
so he'd get five minutes of phone call.
And he's like,
yeah,
they offer.
They never made the,
oh my God.
So he starts sniffing around to go somewhere else.
It takes a deal in Nashville,
we'll only find out later on that there was a two-year deal in Calgary.
It wasn't a qualifying offer.
It was actually better.
We were doing.
Oh, Clark.
Because that happens.
Sometimes we're not going to qualify you,
but let's talk.
Yeah.
get another deal. That's what they said. And a lot of times that'll have to do with at certain times,
qualifications can be two way or one way. And so teams and players will want to avoid some of those.
But yeah, that's tough. Get that cell phone service.
What's up for Starlink? I got to have the Starlink for up north.
I don't know they had it back then, but yeah.
Is that how it goes?
Ryan Pike, we're starting to get into PTO season if you're not signed at this point.
Yeah, there's no, I can't imagine there would be any teams out there, urgent.
scouring the market.
The money's been spent.
Yep.
And all it is now is just wait for the best deal.
Well, and the thing is, most of these teams are,
if you're missing stuff, you're missing the hard things to collect,
not the easy things to collect.
Like, you can go find a fourth line winger right now,
but everyone has those.
What you can't find is like top six winger or number one center.
We're at top 4D.
Those are the things you can't find.
And, oh, yeah, this guy might be able to be an eight.
Like, yeah.
There's a whole league of those in the American League.
What you just said there is an interesting, my take, Shillington.
Yeah.
You can't go fire to top four.
So clearly no one else thinks you're a top four.
I'd agree.
Except that if you stayed here, you'd probably play as a top four.
You'd have a shot at it for sure.
Your opportunity to play in the top four is not going to get better in many places.
Great.
We kind of took our runs at all over last week.
The runs is too strong.
I just, look, it doesn't mean we don't think he's a right guy.
It just looks like a bad decision.
That's all.
Well, he doesn't have a team.
Unless there are some standing offers out there that he's happy with and he's deciding,
but it seems,
teams probably want an answer by now,
but it's hard to say.
It feels like maybe they've misjudged the market a little bit.
Two-year deal on the table, one point I was told.
Yeah, not sure.
Anywho.
Anywho, Eric is in here.
Jonathan Taves getting a PTO from any team.
Yeah, this is the second or third summer we're doing that game?
How long has it been?
Is this the second summer?
I missed one to COVID and then we're like, oh, he's going to come back midseason.
Watch he's going to sign in Colorado.
He's going to come in mids.
And then I don't know if it was COVID.
It was some weird thing.
He had long time or something like it.
Yeah.
Was it long haul?
COVID or whatever.
Or something like it.
It was one of those things.
It was tough to diagnose.
He couldn't shake it.
Yeah.
Don't have that.
Tick disease almost.
Which is crazy.
Do you mean like a laugh?
Like a neck twitch?
or like I would tick?
No, it wasn't a tick.
It's not lime or tick.
Like, I don't think it was it,
but it was like a mosquito with like a blood.
It's got a weird name.
Is that right?
Mountain Buffalo diseases.
Yeah.
I didn't know that.
Really?
Dude, Jane don't.
Oh, yeah.
She was all messed up.
Yes.
No, I didn't know.
I didn't know.
But I didn't know.
Yep.
That was the tail end of his career,
if not right after, wasn't it?
No, I think it was the tail end.
I think he played a little bit afterwards.
But it sapped him about it.
Really.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Shane, don't know illness.
Well, Shane, I did not mean to, I did not mean to laugh.
I just sounded kind of...
Did somebody through?
Well, I had to take the dog to the vet last week because he was scratching and he thought
to me it was like a tick thing or something.
So it was his first thing in my mind.
The Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
There it is.
A health scare as he battled Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
Jeez.
At the last...
I don't like the sounds of that day.
Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
favor?
No.
It doesn't bring.
Top free agents, according to daily face-off.
You know, before we get any further, hey, Frank Baum.
Whatever your situation is, business personal, if you need legal help, legal assistance, legal guidance.
Yes.
It's only McLeod law.
If something goes sideways at Stampede, you're going to lean on your house?
You don't, they're not far, it's not far from you.
Probably.

Shane king partner in the litigation and dispute resolution group but it's across the board
whatever it is maybe it's trouble maybe it's just say hey we're buying selling a house getting
married whatever it is whatever it is that you need legal help for it they are the very best
calgary base they know the city they may even know you chances are good people living in our city
mcclough dash law dot com so we will take a look just the remaining free agents and it depends how you want to
most points last year, highest salary last year, age, that sort of thing.
It's probably a blend, I'd think, eh?
Yeah.
Kind of at the top of the list, James Van Reimsdyke.
Actually, had a pretty okay year last year.
I think 11 goals, 38 points, $1 million deal.
Feels like that's probably something you can get again, right?
That's PTO.
Yeah, I don't know that you need to rush to get him done.
Ryan Suter.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I kind of did too.
Kind of sneaky.
35.
Ryan Suter,
39 years of age,
bought out twice.
Not sure what's there now for the 39-year-old.
Yeah.
I would think that if you could get Ryan Suter at less than a million bucks to come
to be a 6-7 if he wanted to.
But that's a big decision that you would understand,
right?
Because that's a guy that's always played minutes.
Is he going to be okay watching hockey games?
Well,
and if you're the GM,
I want to evaluate,
do I need to see a kid have that opportunity
or do I close the door by getting an older guy,
veteran guy?
How's your attitude going to be if you're up there for 40?
Right.
Yeah.
That's an interesting one because he's been,
he's getting paid by two teams this year to not play hockey.
It's the wild and now the stars.
And wasn't he one of the ones that this was the first time he made the postseason?
Or it was the,
or it was the,
or I guess he's played a bunch of all the games,
without making
He played in Asheville too, wouldn't he?
Yeah, he would have most games without a cup, maybe.
Yeah, maybe something like that.
Active lists, I don't know.
Beyond that, Daniel Sprung, interesting guy.
Again, it seems like he shows up for teams.
He plays well in spurts and then can't find long-term.
Two million dollar cap hit was with Detroit last year,
had 18 goals, 43 points, and 76 games.
What are you?
Right shot?
been everywhere, man.
He's been everywhere.
Was he a Pittsburgh draft pick?
Yeah, and I can remember.
Seattle for a bit.
Strong.
Always kind of wondered about him.
From Amsterdam, believe it or not.
Oh, well, maybe that's it.
It's into the weed.
Pittsburgh draft pick second rounder and then goes to Anaheim, then Washington,
then Seattle, then Detroit, and had 21 goals in Seattle.
Seattle, they didn't bring them back.
18 goals in Detroit didn't bring them back.
14 for the Ducks, didn't bring him back.
Yeah, we're there.
Not sure.
Not sure.
Good or good.
Your buddy Tyson Barry, Ryan.
Yeah.
You want a third pair guy that could run a powerful unit?
It's available.
It's probably it.
He's available.
What do we know?
Is he well-liked?
Is he, any intel?
I think he's a well-like, dude.
I know he had the most of that big,
Oilers crew out for his wedding.
We saw the photos.
Mike Smith.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Good stuff.
But I don't know what, what's, well, how much is left there.
And, and he's never been an ace defensively.
So if the offense is starting to dry up, that might be tough.
But also, you know, there's teams that just aren't, don't have good enough power play
personnel in the blue line.
You could bring them in and put him in the third pair guy.
You're going to phone him and was it going to be a million bucks again, right?
Right.
It's a, it's PTO season.
It's PTO season.
and if our kids don't show up in camp and look like they can do it.
You busy, Tyson?
What do you want to play?
Yeah.
What do you think, kid?
Do you want to do this thing?
Tony DiAngelo, another skilled guy, has a hard time sticking around in any place.
I think there's just character questions.
That's all.
He had the fight with Georgiav when they were both on the Rangers.
Some guys have worked their way through a few dressing rooms,
and it's like, you know what?
in the right place at the right time we could insulate this guy,
but most teams are just like, we can't do this.
We don't want this in our room.
But he's also had some pretty good years when people had counted him out.
Coming off a buyout, I think he had a monster year a couple of years ago.
Was a first rounder in 2014 by Tampa, then moved to Arizona,
played 39 games there, got shipped to the Rangers.
They had them for four seasons, all three and changed,
and then off to Carolina and then Philadelphia, then back to Carolina.
but the guy can the guy could be said 40 31 points two years ago 41 or sorry
51 the year prior to that guy could put up points but two years it's like well you
need to have a room that's established so he think he can but then chances are those things
they don't want some shithead coming in there it's like no we don't we got a good room we're
an established group we don't want this guy coming in and then on the flip side you bring him into
a room that isn't established and he starts you know throwing his waiter up I don't I think
those kinds of guys are better and established rooms because there's already
culture and leadership and there is not a void that he will fill he will have to fit in
I kind of think of how like evander cane arrived in edmonton they've already had their
leaders they had you know that that was the right spot to bring him into if you were
considering employing him whereas a team without leadership that maybe doesn't have um designs
uncontending.
It just feels like it can go more sideways.
Yeah.
Some forwards.
Tyler Johnson, long time lightning,
member of the talk of Blackhawks.
He's 33, had 17 last year,
but would have been playing.
Oh, I know, would have been playing prime minutes.
Kevin LeBank, who had two goals last year.
Just.
Wasn't Kevin LeBlank, the guy that had a bunch of points
and turned down that big car?
He did them a favor.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Kind of did the one-year deal.
Oh, boy.
Jesus.
Yeah.
They're like, we're in a pinch here.
You mind?
Kevin, you don't, you saw one year.
We'll bring you back.
The cap will be higher.
Yeah, they have him,
Daily Faceoff has him in that 893K range,
which is still.
Oh, so not five.
Coming off his $4.73 million
dollar contract.
So he did get that big deal.
You do it, well, if only for a year.
But that's, you know what you have to do?
You have to alter your lifestyle a little bit.
bit from 4.7 when you do your estate planning dean does you take a different are you back to
find commercial so it's yeah that's right you're not taking your kids on a fj for some friggin
baseball it's just not happening uh mike hoffman he cute man he could score goals is he still he just
choose he had 10 last year chooses not to uh max just not to yeah max patch ready 35 injury issues there
what was it with him ACL double Achilles killies wasn't he
The old Achilles.
Devastating.
Yeah.
We talked about Shillington.
He's in there for whatever.
I don't know what metric or what gauge they're using to forecast potential contracts,
but daily face off.
Schillington coming off the deal that paid him two and a half million a year.
They have them at one year,
1.1 million as a forecast.
That would be a lot lower than what his camp was asking for.
Yeah, probably less than what the flames had offered.
Quite a bit.
Would be a guess.
On both term and dollars, I'd suggest.
I wonder.
if there's a kiss and makeup there.
I don't want to get back into it.
We talked about it last week,
but I just, I don't know.
Hey, and I don't think,
look, people can make mistakes and,
you know, come back,
but I just don't,
Jake Bean's kind of the,
that's why you got him,
because that was the Oliver Shillington hole.
There's enough holes on defense.
Yeah, and you might move another blue liner
at some point this year, who knows.
Feel like whoever wants to play real good,
we'll take them, please.
What are you saying?
What are you saying?
I just looked down the left.
I guess you could move Weger to the right side.
He's a righty that's played the left.
So yeah, you're fine.
If you,
if you want Oliver Schillenten back and he wants to come back,
you can make room for sure.
Yeah.
And then there's some other,
Jacob Rana.
He's been available on waivers.
There's some.
Rana was in the player assistance program and has scored
at a prolific rate when he's been right.
He hasn't been right for a while.
Justin Schultz,
remember he was,
he was going to do it all for the Oilers.
Didn't do much for the Oilers in the end.
He is,
killed just in Pittsburgh, didn't he?
Yeah.
Coming off a contract in Seattle, he's 33.
Klingberg signed in Toronto did not work.
It did not work.
It's over.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Burnt toast.
Remember when he was turning down 40 million because he wanted 70?
What are you doing, bud?
Yeah.
If you're paying, if you're going to pay him,
yeah, that's Merrill Hayeskin and though.
Like that's, what are we talking about?
Okay, then.
I'll sign one year.
I'll prove it to you guys.
Nope.
I've seen a...
When you're in Toronto.
Yeah.
I've seen...
Throw that back up, Jackie Boy, if you don't mind.
Near the bottom, Alex Neelander, 26.
Fascinating case.
I have seen his name pop up as...
Buffalo draft?
Maybe.
I'm trying to remember because he's moved around.
But some Flames fans online and that they're saying,
what about throwing this guy a lifeline?
Is Buffalo, Chicago, Columbus to the place he's played?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He got traded.
Pittsburgh maybe?
Yeah, he was on Pittsburgh.
Mid-season.
And there was a weird trade condition
where if he got super hot
and reached this number of goals,
and you're like, that's hilarious.
This guy's never going to,
and he was on absolute heater when he got there.
Yeah.
And if you look at the games played in the points,
like you're talking about a 26-point player in 28 games.
He's 26 years old.
What?
That's a.
Went to Columbus, had 11 goals and 23 games.
15 points.
Not the 28-6, yeah.
I don't know.
It comes back to the do they need more wingers?
Eat the girl.
But then on the flip side,
is this another guy that you could say, well, you bring him in.
He's going to play.
If he gets some sort of pick for him at the deadline.
I don't know.
Where does he end and where does Jacob Peltje,
Connor's area, Ryan Longberg?
I don't know.
You could absolutely bring him in.
Well,
I'm surprised that someone else hasn't, to be honest.
Born in Calgary, guys.
Yep.
That's not forget that.
He has a Calgary guy.
Got to reenite those Calgary brothers.
Calgary guy.
What if you brought cousins in?
See, was he on that list?
Yeah, he's on that list.
He's a major pain in the ass.
Let him Lomburg play the same way.
Go.
He would drive you nuts because he is more rat than tough,
but he lives under the skin of opponents.
How old is he?
Cousins would be like 20s.
Oh.
Nick Cousins, 30.
Yeah.
Got into 69 games.
a year ago.
I wonder if to me,
he's more the you already are paying Lombard.
I know, but I'm thinking from a coach and GM.
All right.
We're going to struggle this year.
What's going to be,
what's going to be the hardest part of playing games in January
when you're out of the frickin playoffs for a month already?
Emotion.
Who's going to get more,
more games suspended?
Pospisal or cousins?
Well, no, it's just about having emotion in the barn
and in the room.
And if you've got guys that play a certain way,
maybe that's your confidence in Pospicil doing again what he did this.
I'm not,
I absolutely think he can do it again if he's healthy.
I don't.
I don't worry about his motor.
I worry about his health.
I'm the same.
100%.
I am one.
But you've got Pospicil and Lomburg.
Those are two of the more difficult pain.
You're not playing Pospital though on the fourth line.
No, I'm just saying like you want a bit of that through your lineup.
When you talk about that mid-Jan.
You need guys that.
bringing energy. And Pospicil absolutely did that all year when he was helping.
I am wondering. Sorry, I jumped on you there. But I am wondering how far, like what it would
take for him to get onto that fourth line, whether it's elevated play from one other player.
And if he struggles for a little bit, you can see him with, with Lomburg and Rune.
And Rune. And Runei on that fourth line, right?
Hunter, Schwinter, whoever you're liking that four hole. I think he's a hot Matthew
Coronado away. That's all it is.
Coronado's on your fourth line as it stands.
Because as excited as we were,
yet, you know, eight goals.
So now you're going to shit on your favorite player?
I'm not. No, he's my guy.
He's my guy.
But, you know, I just,
you're all both team.
And this is kind of why I keep bringing up the winger conversation, right?
Because it's like, you do want to allow someone like
Pospisal or Coronado or Pellate to be great and have a role
rather than be like, yeah, we're kind of full.
We don't want to wrestle the feathers of this.
veteran with $70 million
off. So you're going to play the fourth line.
Woof.
Woof.
70 million.
How old is Peltier now?
He's getting old enough where he can't make it.
Three,
I guess.
Is it?
Maybe a little less.
Okay.
All right.
We could probably let's see.
He was the first rounder.
What I want to say?
2019?
2018.
22, 23.
Okay.
All right.
It's like he's not in that 26,
27.
No, God, no.
No.
Okay, good.
And again, he only, like, the injuries really hurt.
Comes back.
Injuries do hurt.
Boom.
Yeah.
Well, it hurt his development more than just the pain, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
23 turns 24 in March.
So, yeah, it's a 23-year-old season here.
Do or die.
He was a little, uh, underwhelming.
I don't want to overstate it, but it's a playoffs.
He did not stand out.
You'd hope he would have.
Yeah.
We're guys like Coronado and, and,
Wolf, you're like, yes.
Like these guys are, they're too good for this league.
Yeah.
These are NHLers playing in the American league.
It did not feel that with Peltje, at least down the stretch.
It's late first round pick.
Like it's,
it wasn't a guarantee that this guy was going to produce.
No.
I think what you love to see is him get to a spot where he could play on line with
Backl and Coleman and like, but I don't know.
Like, I go, I get what you're saying.
then there's the other side of it.
It's like so.
So the security blanket.
If you want to go play,
like who do you want to play with?
Like,
frick,
come on.
Pastor knock was also a late first round pick.
He's proven to be more than that.
Yeah,
stay healthy,
for sure.
Stay healthy.
Camp,
get strong.
He played a little timid for my liking after that.
And maybe that's Jacob Trubo laying you out.
You don't want that to,
if that shows up in camp,
I'm worried.
If you're 5'9 and you're timid,
I'm worried.
If that's just a little recovery.
from injury thing i can live with it feels like maybe a big year i would suggest so yeah it feels
like it could be a big year because i i think the flames have used they've drafted a lot of players
they've been drafting a lot of players there's a lot of use this is the kind of draft this is the kind of
player that when you miss screws up like that's you better hit somewhere else to make up for it
because you've wasted a first round pick yeah the if it goes
that way. Yeah. No, this is the, this is the thing
about drafting in the mid-20s, right? Like, it's tough.
Like, there are absolutely good players
in there, and there are absolutely guys that will not get
a single game in the NHL. But that's how you
see it when you start
doing one of my favorite games.
Let's look back at the draft history.
And you look, it's like, well, they use the first on this guy
and a first on this guy and the first on this guy
over a five-year period where maybe
one guy is a regular NHLer.
Well, and especially for these
guys in the situation they're in,
I said it when they drafted.
Yeah.
Hope those two guys
that got the first round are good
because if you're starting to miss on these
when you're in a rebuild mode.
It just extends it.
Just adding years onto the end of it.
And it's funny because even a couple of years in,
we think we know, oh, this guy's good,
this guy isn't.
Like Vinie High-Hinole played right away for Winnipeg.
Tobias Bjorn fought played right away.
Say that again.
Tobias Bjorn fought and Vinny High-Lah.
We're both picks 20 and 22, that same draft class.
Bjorn Fought's a Stanley Cup champion, Ryan.
there you go.
So these guys step in right away and you're like, they're good.
They don't have jobs anymore.
Like, isn't that not crazy?
Like, they stepped into the league.
And by 23, he was like, no.
On the way out.
Like, you're just, you're probably a tweener.
You should go make money in Europe or whatever.
Like, it's just, you do have to remember it is not a game of who's going to be the best at 19.
It is who's going to be the best in their mid-20s.
And Peltier, that window hasn't closed yet, but it's getting close.
Yeah.
I was pretty good at me.
You were.
It's true.
What was your peak?
You're in the show.
What was your peak?
I didn't peak.
I was all.
No, come on now.
19 to 30.
I mean, numbers being,
numbers aside,
when do you feel like this?
I'm,
I'm a big swinging D over here.
Buffalo?
Yeah, Buffalo days.
Yeah.
It's pretty damn good when you got here.
Veteran.
Yeah.
Well, he was drunk when he got here.
But then was.
He was drunk before.
he got in.
It's a drug since he got here.
Yeah, yeah.
It's hard to stay over here.
It's weird.
Like when you're down in the States,
people drink a lot,
but I've found it much more difficult.
Yeah, now that you're back.
Yeah, Canadians.
Um, do we have any, uh,
any, any reviews?
Anybody reach out from the, uh,
development camp over the, uh, course of the weekend?
I had some,
the snowy cup.
We heard some, uh, you know,
some, uh,
William Stromgren.
Bill Stromgren.
Billy Strong.
You need a nickname for this cat
because he's going to play NHL games next year.
That's my bold prediction, Philis.
Oh, already, bold?
Really good second half.
Had an unbelievable highlight real goal in the playoffs early on.
And now by leaps, well, I should, like standout at development camp.
So got Ben.
Stromgren, next best player.
So a bunch of playing against a bunch of junior kids.
He's good.
And college guys and whatever.
Like guys that aren't dissimilar in age, but.
Hey, you've got to stand out there.
Hey, listen, it's better than not standing out.
Damn right.
It sure is.
Ask Mason McDonald.
You don't want to fit in in that camp.
You keep coming back to it.
Dominate and don't come back.
He was great in the playoffs.
Six games, one goal, four points.
So, I mean, it's more than just numbers.
But he was the second rounder in 2021.
He's 21 years of age.
Yeah.
Came over from Sweden this year, I believe,
first year in North America.
Yeah.
For Brinnis,
some Rogal and some Modo Jr.
over there.
Oh, wow.
Some good clubs there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But 6-2 and there's some tools here.
Did we talk about this?
Is the, our kids bigger again?
Yeah.
Byron Bader had a tweet about it.
Size is right back into,
you know, fashion cyclical dean.
Okay.
Sorry, I kind of cut, didn't know you're going to keep going.
So size good again.
In the draft, there was...
Is it good because the big guys can move now?
Because the old days, old Chris Wells, my buddy, he was out there.
He was grinding, dinger.
Oh, yeah.
Right?
Like, there's lots of girth, lots of size.
Straight lines.
These guys, boy, when they get going.
Big kids now.
Everyone has to be able to skate now, but you still like size for what size does.
And I think they, Byron had noted there was five guys, six, seven, were taller that
were drafted, there was like one or two, five, nine or under. It was like, what? So are you going to
freak out again about this? No, you need to be able to play. The problem with the big guys they drafted
is they were never players. Like that's the point. Like freaking big rig in his draft eligible
year had like no points. They drafted him as a 19 year old. It was idiotic. And then, you know,
Keegan Kansig, God bless his heart being the best Keegan Kanzig he could be fighting fires in
Calgary now. But that was not a dominant player. And then, you know, you're just, you're looking at the
guy's height, not his ability to play hockey when you're drafting that. Six.
Oh, six.
Boy, you dream on that.
Meanwhile, the Salaia of 17 playing in the K. You're like, okay. And oh, he's a great skater
and hits everything. That's not size for size. That's a huge, good hockey player.
Should I, maybe I should send my kid over to Russia. Could he play, make some money,
start paying some bills? Because I'm sick of him. In Russia?
You can get anything done. You can get any done.
That's been drinking red wine since he was 10 or 11?
If you get them on to the vodka, he'll fit right in.
Yeah.
It'll be like his old man at that wreck hockey game, vodka and the water bottle.
Do you know who I ran into in Seattle?
Sure, don't, Ryan.
Like six Bymore bleeping blues.
No word of a lie.
We'd hardly sat down.
Yeah, they punch you in the nose.
And I'm like, we're in Seattle.
And I'm like, hey, fellas, how you doing?
I have no idea who these guys are.
And the ones like, we're the Buymore Blues.
I'm like, oh, you assholes.
I remember you.
Darcy Tucker's brother nearly killed that man.
Ret was the worst ref we've ever seen.
I nearly got knocked out in a tap room.
They loved it.
They remembered it all.
Eventful night, as it turns out, as we remember.
It's a little bit as long.
There's only one first ever.
Speaking of development camp, we had some people on the scene.
Oh, yeah.
It's a little floaternob.
What?
They're draft nerds, prospect nerds?
You're in Seattle.
drinking whatever you
as a jet juice on your PJ
some guys go to the development camp to work
it and you're going to rip them as a nerd.
Here's to our
Flames Nation colleagues who were actually
working this. Our pals.
Well, it was a Saturday morning in
July and unlike many other
places in the world, this rank
was full of Calgary Flames fans
for the final day of on ice action
at Calgary Flames Development Camp. It was
one of those days where you
can find some optimism about the future of the
chavvy flames. A lot of players look good. Zane Perek opened the proceedings with a behind-the-back
pass that left-on lookers going. Oh, so that's the guy. That's the top guy.
No, I was just trying to have fun, show my skill. I was trying to make plays. Like, I'm not playing
the game properly out there. I'm trying to show my skill and have some fun.
We'll give a shout out to the goaltenders who, unfortunately, they gave up 17 goals combined.
I don't think we saw a lot of amazing box-out defensive performances, though.
One defenseman that really stood out outside of Perak was Axel Hurtig from Team White.
Hurtig was drafted late in the 23 draft class.
He's coming over to play with the Calgary Hibman this fall,
and he played quite well, and I think what he did in this kind of environment
really provide a bit of a glimpse of what he could be in North America.
2021 picks Matt Coronado and William Strongren.
They looked like you'd hope they would.
Stronggren is also really composed with the puck.
He created a lot of scoring chances for his team by holding on to the puck and letting defenders come to him and opening up space for his teammates.
Luke Nisa scored a really nice goal off of a feed from Strongren where he simply held the puck inside the blue line, waited for the defender to come to him, and it opened up a ton of space for Mesa.
And there's a lot of examples of those kind of plays.
Well, that'll probably do it for the cavalry flames for the next few months.
Development camp is in the rear view window, and most of the flames players will be going there separate ways the remainder of the summer.
overall they're probably going to be fairly quiet between now and September.
They will reconvene in the second week of September
for preparations to the Benedict Young Stars tournament.
Sounds like us. Reconvening in September, second week.
Oh my, Pike?
Yeah, there you go.
Don't try and change what you just did.
Pike and I literally did a two and a half hour,
completely nerdy show on the draft.
Like, it is a term of endearment in the community
when you can, like, gush about players and prospects the way that he can.
Let's just make sure we all know that it was three on three hockey as well.
Not real hockey.
They did, I believe, blocks of five on five, four on four, three on three reset.
Yeah, they were doing all kinds of stuff.
They don't want real hockey.
You don't want guys getting hurt.
I do.
Yeah, I guess you do.
Tell me what you got.
Let's go.
No fights.
Do you want fighting inter squad?
The hell you got all this size?
Well, I'll tell you what, you know who did?
Old Captain Todd Simpson wanted fighting an inner squad.
he went and fought Sandy McCarty
are on the same team. How the hell you get noticed?
It's getting noticed out there.
You know what I'm realizing?
This mustache you have has you
extra surly and rugged.
He starts looking like Todd Simpson now.
Right? I think if you were clean shaving,
you'd be, I'm just glad no one got hurt.
You know, let's just get these guys to training camp.
You get the mustache going.
Is there any fights?
These freaking kids nowadays.
Those kids.
Like your damn bad.
So thanks to, uh,
to Pike and was it RJ?
Doing something.
By RJ came into town.
Pretty impressive, you know,
the hottest weekend of the summer.
People sitting inside watching Flames prospects.
Also nerds.
Yeah, maybe that was it.
It was just hot outside.
Those nerds need to get cooled off.
It's a nerd herd.
Yeah, all right.
Fair enough.
Anyway.
So that's,
oh yeah, see,
walking along.
Thank you.
Yeah.
So that's,
I mean,
aside from some sort of a random signing,
Or a contract, is there anybody that needs a contract extension?
Anybody in that final?
There's some RFA's, but nothing too crazy.
I mean, Wolf needs a new deal.
Peltier needs a new deal, but these are guys that don't have Arbrites or leverage yet.
So the GM really is putting on a speedo for a good couple months here.
Wow.
And Jesse said he needs it.
It's been stressed out.
Yeah, I bet.
Yeah, we'll look at them.
Yeah.
Well, that's, that's the story there.
there'll be a lot of overlap, I imagine, from the numerous CHL players that you saw there going to Penticton.
The NCAA guys are not eligible to come to the Penticton Youngstars tournament, but to be fair, not a lot of NCAA guys in the system right now.
It's a bit of Russians, a lot of Canadians.
It breaks your heart.
This is not your Calgary flames, Ryan.
If we could just draft some guys that might stick around and not be too.
Hey, Coronado's sticking around.
Where's David Vandergulik when you need them, you know?
Oh, DVG.
Because those worked out.
You and Feaster.
You loved your NCAA kids.
There was a few Kenny Morris and Matthew de Blas in there.
We could have done without Dean.
I'll be honest.
Oh, God.
Ice band brabants.
There is a lot of hand washing in that college ranks.
I could say that.
Price Van Walsh.
Well, they take care of each other.
Yeah.
Let's.
because that you want to talk about things that have changed remember that it still happens
but that was a big thing it was the whole kind of a festival for the undrafted u.s.
college who's going to win the sweepstakes for Spencer foo you know who's going to win the sweepstakes
cliff poo and Spencer foo well the first man that you talked about wasn't uh Justin
Justin Schultz he was drafted though he was I believe a second rounder out of west side in the
BC League and then he went and played
four years of college and so he
said no thanks to I think the ducks to
become a free agent and then signed in Edmonton.
But yeah, it was
I guess a theoretical free agent
frenzy. Yeah.
Who was the other defenseman that the flames
had? It was a Connor Mackie
you know? Oh yeah.
Connor Mackie, Minnesota
State Mancato this guy
the blames have won the sweepstakes
and in doing so also
lose.
you so uh melamaki and then lose connor macky to that same team that's correct ill-fated
richie for richie swap we should go back over it's too soon you richie for richie swap might
have been rock bottom can he play that again dude well i've got a few that would work here
okay let's hear him oh fuck yeah um no he was safe at no no no no
This is going great.
God damn it.
You probably get the idea.
There's a lot there.
You blow it!
Don't need to keep playing all of these things.
We get it.
Got it. Yeah, that's fine.
Boo!
All right, it's time for the Pinda Report.
It's presentation of Village Honda.

Ryan Pindon.
This is a Pinder report with Ryan Pindor.
Thank you, Dean.
All.
Let's start with the Calgary Flan.
You guys have been boring us all this nerd talk.
Let's get to the good stuff here.
Ilya Sloviov, the Bell Russian, using dome ice when no one else is.
Look at him putting in the extra hours, you know.
Is that his coach?
That's some sort of a...
Is that Fuji?
No.
Is that Fujita?
No, that looks actually like his girlfriend and he's doing...
Who's running the camera?
Hardest shot competition?
What do we got here?
Let's Sloviov to the slot.
It's a boy.
It's a boy.
It's a boy.
slap shot. There we are.
Oh, boy.
Actually, don't mind this kid for a late, late pick.
I thought you were going to say something else.
I don't mind this idea for a gender reveal.
I like the gender reveals.
I got to talk to one too.
I'm sorry.
Retro, that's how you did yours, right?
Yep.
Lots of blue pucks.
Mm-hmm.
Blue balls.
Blue pills.
Blue pills.
Oh, we'll move.
Pucks.
Now, now it's just blue balls.
And you were talking about, uh, blue pills?
well i mean we'd advise you to go to be aroused that's right don't you don't need medical clinic you
don't need the bills fix the problem get to the root of the issue don't be i assure taping band-aids to it
you know pelvic floor exercises that's where it's right the um solid chair go have a seat in that
check it up okay so uh you know who did get a new deal it's a fair amount of money is jason tatum
who of course won the NBA championship the larry ob b uh 62 point
million next year.
That is more than the salary of...
The greatest player ever, baby.
The top five paid players in the NHL combined.
All added up?
All added up.
That will combine me.
62.8 for Tatum.
So Matthews, McKinnon, McDavid,
Elias Pedersen, and the Breadman
makes 61-6.
Tatum makes more by himself.
That's unbelievable.
Wow.
I always think about like,
if pasta sees him at like the private air terminal and they just like wave at each other
something and it's just like those guys it's next level it's a different level 10 times more than
pasta basically this isn't pasta 6.8 no pasta just got paid he's at 12 or 13 but yeah still a lot
pasta just okay just it might even be taking in this year so so four or five times more
for every every paycheck you get I've had five already that month now just
let's just assume that maybe we're in the process of negotiating contracts for something sure how did it get how do for you to lob out a number we want 62 million dollars this season what is how do you base that where does it start do you start at 90 million and then wiggle your way down to 62.
How that works? Jack? Jack, how did you?
You're the boss.
Is that what we call a supermax?
I believe so.
There's a maximum salary.
No one in the NFL has even made max salary.
Frickin Conner's giving out sweetheart deals to chia
so we can overpaid donkeys. Like, what are we doing, guys?
Go get paid.
Yeah. Because I mean, that's amazing.
Because I don't even know
how you absorb or comprehend that kind of money.
you could make half of that
and it's still all the money in the world.
Right?
You're making half as much of Jason.
You're making $30 million a year.
I don't know that would be so much money.
He's making more than NFL quarterbacks.
That's good stuff.
The only guy making more is probably like
Ronaldo and Saudi playing soccer against some scrubs.
Yeah.
Anyway.
I don't know how you negotiate to there,
but I think probably you just look at LeBron's contract
and go, I want more than that.
there's uh yeah what what's the maximum yeah okay we'll take that thanks because i don't think jason tayton
i'm not coming back i want to see your books can i see all of your financial financials no
because then i can then judge how much i don't want to put you guys out i think they got a 51 49
rest or something like that don't they i'm pretty sure they do they get more than that nachel and
owners are 50 50 mbys 40 51 49 something like that's you i know what it's not jason tatum's fault
these deadbeat hockey players.
Raise the revenues.
Yeah, seriously, guys, let's go.
Raise the revenues.
We've got the four nations cup that everyone's excited about.
I can't wait.
Also internationally, tonight,
the biggest soccer game in Canada's history.
Let's go, fellas.
Damn, beef-eaten Argentinians.
We got a...
Woppa.
Messy and the baby blue club.
Big, big beefers.
Yeah, it's not as good as Alberta Bee, but...
quite good. Some will say it's better.
But what's the, uh, do they put it on the swords and stuff?
Gouchos. Yes. Is that, uh, yeah, they'll stab you too. Yeah. Dean, you're a coucho. You don't
leave your couch. A gau show has this. I am. I'm a hardcore coucho, especially when it's this
hot. It's, you flip that thing over and it's always go for the couch. Couchos. Not chas.
Yeah.
All right.
That's tonight.
It's going to be fun.
Ryan, that's all right.
Did you see after they beat Venezuela in penalty kicks, who rolled into the room to celebrate?
This guy is never seen publicly, but of course, here he is in what?
Dallas, Texas?
Tell me he's getting killed.
Eddie Crosby.
What's the wearing?
The fellas are fired up.
Big winning kicks.
And they're saying.
doing the rounds happy to meet them
can you get a smaller shirt
I'm a smearish media for sure
I heard Chuckie was in
Stampede so is that kind of the same thing
that's similar
quads
I saw yesterday he was on
was a supporter
no that's not
okay
uh
Crosby was on the ice yesterday
it's like
guys an animal
it's the
it's the second week of July
What do you want to do, Sid, you want to go?
Yeah, it's been off for a while.
A vacation.
Hey, vacation.
What are we going to do, hang out at the lake?
And the older you get, the more you have to make you keep that engine just like you, Dean.
On the couch.
You go choos.
You make it look easy.
Calvary FC, speaking of soccer, back in action this week.
They got a big win against Valor.
And look at this Western match.
Ah, this is a cat.
Can you ask them to play a game when I can.
take my kids i know
scheduling any ret they just now
what i've done is i've actually told them that and they said
cool just let us know when ret will be in calgary and then i've asked you i'm on a
saturday know that well we'll put it on the weekend in the middle of the day so it's not
too late it's not too early where's my nine a m tuesday game who is looking
the schedule this is bs middle of the weekend oh the f are they allowed to have a
game here and the stampeters can't i don't has anything to do it allowed
I think it's probably just good decision-making.
Because the Stampeders were like,
oh, we can't get a hotel rooms for the other team.
So I think I saw that online.
I have not paid that close attention.
Does it happen every year during Stam's?
Yes, the Stamps have been on the road for ever.
Yeah, they go to Montreal and get their asses in.
They always lose in Montreal, yeah.
Yeah.
And they'll be in Winnipeg this week where hopefully they can hand the bombers another loss.
Wow.
Oh, geez.
Come on, Dave.
As of the surge, they play Thursday.
We'll have a show that day.
We'll tell you more than it's a home game.
Is it?
It's up for grabs, fellas.
Anyone wants to go?
You got the VIP table,
courtesy our friends of paybilt.
My daughter.
Thursday night at seven,
who's scheduling these things?
That pay belt guy's going to be there.
I ain't going.
He's in trouble.
I know.
That's true.
My daughter,
after because we were in Manitoba,
and then she went with her aunt and grand,
they were going on a Manitoba adventure.
They were going to plan a bunch of these things.
Hang on.
They went to the Winnipeg Sea Bears game.
Trader.
The Sea Bears?
anyone but the sea bears.
We're just going to go see it. What's going on?
102, 101, the sea bears won.
My daughter's like, this is unbelievable, fantastic.
Well, we have that in Calgary, you know.
I've been trying to get Dean to go for two years.
If your dad would just get off, if the Coucho could drive you there.
Do you think we could go?
I don't think.
How about El Coucho and El Camino?
It's sold out.
I just, you know, it's at Winsport.
Do you know Thursday?
That ring road is a song.
Didn't they finish the rest of it?
They did. It's time to go
Dean.
Really is.
Go sea bears.
Were you going to say something, Warren?
I closed.
That's fine.
It's good.
No.
Jack's a massive Pittsburgh sports fan.
He's wearing a P hat right now.
Yeah. For penis.
Maybe.
Loves the penis.
Jesus.
He's a huge fan.
No, not judging.
Well, Jackie.
Everybody goes, you're talking about that damn team.
Jack, I'm in his P.
Hey, guys.
This weekend, are we doing this or what?
Because the baseball team, they're the pirates.
They're playing a game at P, NC. Park.
And you won't believe what happened.
John Boy breaking it down for us.
Carlos Azuei in the box, second career home run.
He's hoping, isn't it going to clear the fence.
It hits something.
It bounces back.
Cutch grabs it.
fires it back in he's digging for three no one knows what's going on this um's gonna call him out
damn then the um says hold up son we'll take a look at this for you the um say yeah okay review it
all right they're putting it on the big screen for everyone to watch let's see if anything interesting
happening uh okay and hits that kid right in the nuts i do appreciate that that kid didn't want to
interfere with the ball got to protect yourself though and then everyone's watching now so and
Andy Green is laughing.
He's like, okay, I can't laugh.
Hold it back.
His buddy and his friends are just laughing right in his face.
Look at it.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Just right in the junk.
Yeah.
It's going to have a hard time.
Thinks he's going to get a souvenir.
He doesn't.
Just takes it.
Takes it right there.
Which probably didn't feel good.
John boy with a great breakdown.
Yeah, they're good, man.
He's good.
Yeah.
A new star, new basketball star from China.
Let's have a look.
I think this lady's Kevin put five.
Someone said this is like when the out of the dads are playing the five-year-old.
It's St.
Clint Clark, stop that.
Yeah, I'm sure.
Are we back to draft in size again?
Is it about big, be big again?
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe a little too long in the.
No, no, it seems to be working.
Oh, she has.
That's no fun.
That's no fun.
I can't watch that.
I mean, proud of her.
I can't watch that.
That's.
You got to get her in a taller league.
Oh.
Is there anyone in the WNBA that can?
Not that tall.
Defend?
She'll be there soon enough, though.
I would guess.
Now, because you're that tall, do you,
do you ever have to jump?
And if you don't ever have to jump, is it going to be, like,
you don't even.
mean there's been some big men like that too i'm trying to think of a few like uh what are you
saying Dallas mavericks had a guy you don't develop that ability he just was like just this all day
you don't need to when you're that big is she john bradley no is it Sean bradley seven
foot three guys some for friday come on seven cover that it's like playing friggin at the why
with bender yeah boom you got two more i'm not
Bender, I'm not going to play hoops.
I'm not playing pickup with you, Bender.
Okay.
I got something written down here.
I don't even know what it is.
Let's go to it, Jack.
Number 80.
Oh, yes, here it is.
So, Rhett is all out.
I've watched this.
This is wonderful.
This is quite something.
So this is our Coney Island 4th of July hot dog eating contest,
but they've added some new sports.
Now, Dean, our boy, who we love is boycotted.
Joey Chesson.
not the goat, didn't go this year.
I don't know that I saw any highlights.
The guys eating hot dogs.
They were that impressive, but I did see this.
It is a liter.
No, check that.
It's a gallon of lemonade these guys are trying to chug.
I mean, look at, try and find any drips.
Badlands in a zone here.
I don't know the, it's like a wave machine.
Ladies and gentlemen, Badlands Booker, a new world record.
21 seconds a new world record
one gallon of Nathan's famous lemonade
That's what I would expect someone to say
Greatest victory speech I've ever heard
After a world record Jack can you go back to the tape on that
Just you know emotions it's tough sometimes to find the right words
World record 21 seconds
Oh
Badlands ladies and gentlemen
Badlands Booker a new world
record.
21 seconds on new world record.
One gallon of Nathan's famous lemonade.
There was people puking all over,
like not even halfway done.
He's already just growling at him.
You love it.
How do you feel about lemonade?
I like lemonade, but I like the combo better.
I was going to say, Arm Palmer.
Because it's kind of a quintessential,
that or iced tea, it's the summer drink.
I don't know how much lemonade I end up
drinking at the end of the year. Life gives you lemons, Dean. I guess so. Yeah, you make chicken
salad. Do you guys drink, uh, Jack, are you a lemonade guy? Because he's from the U.S.
and they get all frigging weird with their iced tea. You order ice tea and some bullshit shows up.
I'm a mixed guy. Just a little, a little bit of lemonade. It's too. Tart. Yeah, it's too
can be. Can be. That's also can be what you need on a hot day. I don't touch sugars.
I was going to say, it's a lot of sugars.
And you know, you look back because you know how conscious I am about stuff like that.
But remember you'd get like the good host, the big container of the powdered ice tea.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you just keep putting it in there until it tasted right.
You never thought about it.
Is there any sugar in it?
You get a little older.
Like, Jesus.
I just drank.
Andy Karen used to make Tang like it was.
Wow.
I just drank a box of sugar cubes.
Oh, my Lord.
It's so much sugar.
But yeah, I mean, do we need to bring lemonade back?
What do we got to do?
It's there.
It's down in the ground.
I can tell you.
A lot of, uh, yeah.
You'd see kids doing their lemonade stands.
You don't see that.
A bunch anymore.
The odd time.
I've seen a few this summer.
It's there, Dino.
You just got to get out a little more.
I'm telling you.
You can bring it back, though.
Yeah.
You should do a stand.
You got a good spot.
Everyone's got to drive by you.
It hurts to stand up.
My knees and my back.
It's not good.
The last time we checked in in Australia,
we had the guys with the splash me sign
sitting on the side of the road by the big puddle.
Shades of that, here we go.
A lot of rain overnight.
A lot of the canals around Jemison Park.
Just slow down, buddy.
Otherwise, you go.
Woo, woo, woo.
It's like, oh, fucking, come on.
Fucking you.
Oh, excuse the language,
but that's a smart ass if ever I've seen.
how hard is he working to not drop a see you next tuesday listen this one way
it was like oh fuck a couple
fuck a new
excuse the language but that's a smart ass if ever
i've seen my
only a couple f bombs in there
trimmed it down to a couple
they're disdain in his voice
so good
when we are in Phoenix
getting not banged up taking people to places they shouldn't go
I took a autonomous vehicle home.
You know an autonomous vehicle is.
Because when we were sober and we saw them around,
we're like,
I'm never doing that.
But then at like 3 AM I was paying them,
I'm doing that.
Can't wait.
No driver.
You can hail one like it's an Uber kind of thing or a ride chair.
And they have like sense and calming music because a lot of people be freaked out.
Now here's some video from an officer that had to pull over one of these autonomous vehicles.
Yeah, it stopped. It's 92 Adam Sam, or 92 Adam 2 Sam Paul. And there's no driver. Hi.
Connected to rider's report. This call may be recorded for probably the assurance.
Hi, this is. There's a great looking at a clock for a line.
Yeah, it's Officer Hines, Phoenix, BD. So your car here drove into oncoming lanes of traffic.
Yeah, there's like a little bit of a construction area and it went into opposing lanes of traffic, which is real bad.
So far?
Yeah.
I couldn't help to come over and just had a more of a curiosity.
Yeah.
I thought maybe there's a passenger or something.
No, like, you know, the construction here?
Yeah.
It was eastbound in the westbound lanes, which is real bad.
Yeah.
And then so I light it up and then it takes.
off through the intersex.
I appreciate the thing.
I appreciate the time.
I'm going to all the
opinion. Okay. Yeah. I don't
know if you're able to kind of like review the
video or something.
Jesus.
Yeah. Okay.
Great.
Cops like, what the hell am I supposed to do?
Do you give a ticket?
Do you know what to
look forward to how fast you were going
right there? Yeah, exactly.
I look forward to our benevolent dictators.
It's going to be good.
Robot army that will take over
a society. Yeah.
I'm ready to report for you.
Were you at all anxious or?
No.
Is there any trepidation about getting into the driverless car?
Quite loose, to be honest, not tight and anxious.
It's trying to take the wheel.
Yeah.
Whoop, whoop.
Did you ask the non-driver if he had any mushrooms?
I didn't think of it.
Oh, so you're not going to talk to me?
Well, you can't hear me.
You'll fuck you, dude.
Rider support.
Hello, this is Paul.
Time for some snakes.
We don't do as many shows.
We got to get more snakes in each show.
Dean, this is at Robre's pool right before Rhett left.
What a treat this is when you can get a 50-foot snake.
I don't know this is a toy, like the greatest one ever, or an actual snake.
I think it's an actual snake.
Well, that mom is.
She's not afraid.
That kid is not happy.
That old crocodile Dundee comes sliding in there to save the day.
That's right.
Yeah. And there's guys that are happy to take those snakes and take them to a place where they'll be loved, taken care of, and make sure those snakes get their workouts in.
Yeah.
Because this guy spent the pressing snakes.
Well, this is stupid.
Are there any snake videos that you don't put on?
Like, are there any that don't make the show, or is it just, is there a snake filter?
Dean, I'm going to get back to you in just a moment.
I first have snakes fight followed by toilet snake.
Okay, here we go, Jack.
I think that guy knows the other guy's bigger.
Yeah.
Those are scary.
I'm just going to scoge right by you.
You know, I didn't need to go that badly.
You turn.
I was just going to go for a walk anyway.
I'll go around.
It's fine.
I'm a snake.
I'm a snake.
Snake.
A slippery snake.
Yes, you are.
Very vocal.
Yeah.
But it doesn't happen, right?
It doesn't happen.
It's crazy.
No, you kid, that's a weird nightmare, Dean.
That's totally fabricated.
It would never happen in real life.
What do you talk about boo?
With spiders in the toilet.
That would happen.
Oh, Dino.
Hey, you did pretty good there, tread and water.
Trying.
What do you?
You need your red badge or your orange badge when you were taking swimming lessons.
Maroon.
Maroon?
Yeah, it's a tread water for however many minutes.
I had tread water yesterday for like 30.
Oh, that's so.
Now, is that sitting in a kiddie pool or are you actually treading water?
Oh, is it a lake?
Really?
Boy, not easy.
Uh, some people have pet spiders.
I don't know if we've met this young lady yet, but I've seen.
her work for a while.
Dean might have been on vacation last time we showed her.
I believe she's an Aussie.
It would all make sense.
Let's have a listen.
And before you know it, there he is.
Sweet.
A plunded a little bite right there and you're done.
Tango.
Tango.
Yeah, it's not the best situation.
Tango.
The tarantula.
Oh.
Tarantula spiked me.
Weird.
Finally,
Jack has labeled this.
appropriately. He's called Real Hangover. Because we all remember the movie The Hangover.
Here's some footage from, I believe, Thailand?
Surely not. Oh.
Is that a fucking bat?
Bro, what the fuck?
No. Huge.
Who the fuck is that?
Oh, don't do actual bond, but I don't know. Is this?
Oh!
No.
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Oh, bro, what the fuck is going on?
Is that your bat?
Right, I don't know who he is.
Oh, no!
It's a hell of a night.
That's a hell of a morning, yeah.
Yeah.
That's all the above.
Oh, that's all we got for the Penderport all day.
I do have some footage from one of the ways to beat the heat down on the grounds.
I don't know if you've tried this technique before.
If you can climb into a mascot suit and walk for 90 minutes in 32-degree weather.
Oh, jeez.
Yes.
So this is me becoming a grandma cow.
If you see there, we're adjusting my legs.
Mm-hmm.
I see something.
And then you stop at the bar.
The way.
I'm on the left there.
Beautiful stuff.
Good work, everyone.
Wait, which one are you?
Oh, that one.
Okay.
With the lipstick.
Grandma cow.
Yeah.
So, a big thank you to downtown attractions.
NASCAR people.
Is that what you were doing
yesterday?
Kind of blew my cover, but yeah,
it was kind of the move.
Can you take those shades off
because your eyes do look like shit?
That's your pinned report on a
whatever day they just say, Dean.
Just want to hold him that one for a sec.
So you go away
for three days on a ball trip.
You then return home
and rather than spend,
in time with the family, you, you get into a, a cow costume and go get buckled.
Grama cow.
Right.
It's quite a, it's quite a, uh, collection.
You've got the couch show on one end.
And then you've got private jet Seattle cow costume day drink guy on the other end.
Was it hot?
I have never sweat that much.
incredible.
So this was just, you know what would be fun.
Let's go rent mascot costumes, which I didn't know was a thing.
Let's just go rent costumes and just walk around downtown.
These are legitimate official Calgary Stampede mascots.
What?
I've never seen these things in my life.
Well, it's because you're always banged up at Cowboys with Kachuk.
You're not out on Stephen Avenue walk.
You weren't at the square rope thing.
Anyway, how do you get?
I just need more details, I guess.
It's just, well, I wouldn't want to out our good pal and sponsor the program, Derek Newman, with the CIA R realty and the Derek Newman group.
Right.
Derek's proud member of the mascot committee for that falls under downtown attractions.
Stampede.
The good news is after you peel those off and you're soaked in your own sweat, stinking, you get to drink at the Legion for a couple of.
couple hours.
Oh, I love going to the Legion.
That's something else, man.
And either right on the back of a Jeep on the way back or you take the sea train.
So like if you had two drinks, you'd be just buckled after I'm sweating like that.
We were in rough spot yesterday.
Getting back to sea level was first battle.
Oh, yeah, I suppose.
Yeah.
Well, it's good you thought that through.
Yep.
Let's get totally dehydrated.
and then drink a hundred beer.
Well, let's get totally dehydrated in Seattle, fly home.
Yeah.
Go out in the heat feeling like crap and then try to recover.
And then really pour it on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's how are things at home, Ryan?
Well, it's funny.
You mentioned that.
I just was looking at this text that says,
guess which one of these dressed up idiots is my husband?
And, yeah.
We have the kids at camp this week, Dean, which I think is
A plus parent move during the week of Stampede.
8.30 to 9 a.m. drop off window and a
4 to 4.30 pickup window.
Are your kids, would you send them in that driverless car to get them?
Be safer than dad taking them.
That's a bit of report.
On now, it's the Village haunted demo.
Clear Out Village is ready to move on from their 2024 demo
models and you could save hundreds.
Even thousands of dollars on these vehicles, they're like new, extremely low mileage.
Check them out today online or better yet.
Head to the Northwest Automall and see them yourself.
Village Honda, your dealership for life.
For life.
So is this the, this isn't even the parade.
Like this is just Sunday.
Pender's private parade.
This is Monday.
This is Monday.
Better yet.
Right.
Guess who the goose is?
Is it Derek?
What do they see through?
The goose can see through his band-a- what?
I know.
I'll never look at that, is it a goose?
It's a Canadian goose.
I guess so, yeah.
The goose, got to be careful.
It's loose.
Yeah.
That pig actually is a chicken under its arm, that big white fluff.
That's his chicken.
And that chicken is a troublemaker.
Who's the swine in this photo?
It's obviously a stampede pig, Dean.
What are you talking about?
Don't want to blow up their spot.
Good for you.
Well, yeah, there is that.
Good stuff.

You have buddies of the show.
Canada geese don't have orange beaks. Come on now.
Orange.
Black, right? Black beaks?
I couldn't see too well because the thing with Grandma Cow is that that mouth you're looking out of.
So if you try to look up top.
There's only one.
Is that how it goes?
Always look down.
You basically can see someone's knees and lower.
That's it.
What about when you fall down face first hammered?
Is it, are there people there to help you get up or are you on your own?
Everyone's got a walker.
So each mascot can't be overwhelmed with that.
I thought for sure you'd be his walker, Dean.
Yeah.
They didn't get back to me.
weird weird dine you want to walk outside for two hours and plus 30 while i'm being an idiot mascot
not today uh there's always there's an ongoing battle even now the playoffs are long since gone the flames
season ended months ago the oilers have been done for whatever but yet a oilers fans watch the show
because of course they do because the show is so good uh despite the fact we don't talk about the
Oilers unless they go to the Stanley Cup final, in which case we have to.
But there's still an ongoing battle between the odd oiler fan who jumps in and the
Flames fans who are here on a regular basis.
And Travis is one of them.
They were going back and forth.
Eberley wasn't a first. He was.
So if you're going to ship talk in the chat, at least have your shit.
Yeah.
It would be the thing.
And finally today, this one from the Seerze.
Searzy here, I still have my Cowgirls Gone Wild, 2003.
Stampede staff t-shirt from Rhett.
That was one hell of an effed-up day.
You got them.
Welcome to the city.
What was the date of the trade?
July 3rd.
So you had shirts made up?
We were coming in hot.
We were ready to go prior to being part of the Flames organization.
Because this was your get rich.
game, right? Oh, I was dialed in. This was another one of my ideas. Yeah.
Because Calgirls going wild was massive back then. Yeah. There was no online.
No internet. No internet online. Right. Quick Google search to find what you needed.
You had to order that late at night. Two easy installments of 1999.
Send money order to P.O. Box 44. Calgary, Alberta.
Uh, did it, how, how far off the ground did it get?
Cause clearly you had shirts made up.
It, it was a hit.
Uh, it was a hit with the right people, uh, for a short amount of time.
I don't know that there was a lot of video taken.
Right.
There was, but it was a great icebreaker.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
People, oh, I think this guy was part of it.
He must be listening because.
Is that your lawyer?
He said, you'd know what to talk about this?
Peter Klein?
Uh, Peter, my trouble?
I shouldn't listen?
Oh, okay.
So now for the, so it wasn't just the t-shirt, it was a staff t-shirt.
Oh, well, you were, you trust you.
There was, yeah, if you wanted to be upper echelon, you had to be part of the staff.
Then there were other things that we handed out for certain.
Yeah.
You know, you could earn beads and t-shirts and other things.
We had boxes of it.
It's so covert and under wraps.
I just don't know that anyone even understands what you're talking about.
Cowboys was very accommodated.
Yeah, we'll do the
Betway bets of the day.
Oh, you know,
and yeah, we'll do Betway and then I got this.

Odd that we were talking about
mascots today.
I think we've all kind of agreed
that there is one mascot in the NHL.
I'll do respect to the locally out of it.
But Gritty is just a level high.
You know what maybe it is?
He's what, be a teenager now?
All right. Harvey's, that old.
Harvey's been around a long time.
I don't know what year that Gritty started,
but Gritty in Philadelphia still has,
has it going.
Scott Lawton is a long time flyer forward,
and they spent some quality time together recently.
Good.
Oh.
Nice, and then?
Very.
I'm just happy.
They're happy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You need to have,
guys got to have a good sense of humor, right?
You know, we were thinking,
I know it's the summer and you're on vacation,
but we were thinking it might be funny.
If you and Gritty went to J.C. Penny for some love,
some love photos.
Sure.
Why not?
Yeah, I'll free my calendar.
Yeah, sounds good.
Glad you asked.
Yeah, glad you have.
Okay, so today is Tuesday.
We're back Thursday.
and there will be nothing to talk about then either,
but we'll find a way to talk about some stuff.
Yeah, we'll find a way to talk about some stuff.
All right.
So I shudder to ask.
So with the kids in camp,
what do you now have planned?
Because it's your-
Watch the soccer today.
I know, I got to work out.
I haven't sweat outside of a mascot suit for a while here.
We've got to get back on to normal human terms.
Ivy drip at some point in the record.
That's probably a good idea, right?
I have me IV saying it.
Oh, no, that's a good one.
But it is Stampede and you get that mint flavor that one you are you.
So I just wonder where.
So you've got to work out.
I'm going to pick up kids at four-ish or 30.
Yeah.
Might be too hot for the pump track.
I do have to watch that soccer game tonight.
That's probably the move.
Yeah.
After your workout, you'll feel good.
And then you'll feel, oh, crap.
The kids drop mom.
You don't have a lot back.
Maybe I'm back.
Yeah.
Could watch soccer at home or at the ship.
Which was going bananas for Canada, Venezuela.
Saw some video.
My God.
Have a nice origin pint.
Yes, the Mexicans on tap there.
You ask them, they got it.
What about you retro plans for the week?
Are you, uh, you've done the midway?
You've been on rides.
I'm going to Sask tomorrow.
Are you really?
Northern Sask.
You can pull over officers with that mustache.
Tell them how it is.
How fast think you're going.
You got something.
Yeah, that's right.
Talk to me about, buddy.
Yeah.
Don't think you're part of the cartel or something with that thing.
I need to look in your trunk, sir.
Excuse me, Jorge.
Could you get out of the car, please?
How long do I should keep this?
I'd say forever personally, but I mean, you do you?
They're super in, right?
Kids are wearing them.
A lot of people.
What do I need to be in for?
Good question.
Yeah.
He's already read.
Yeah, you are already you.
Do you have a staff t-shirt from 03?
Oof.
The guy that just found, I guarantee you he's got paraphernalia still kicking around.
He's a hoarder when that stuff comes.
Oh, well, Jack, how about you?
What are you got going on?
Are you doing anything for Jack?
I'm still in recovery mode.
Oh, what a what?
I think I spent about half.
half a paycheck at Cowboys, and then I was the two-day hangover, and then I was sick today.
So three-day hangover or separate instance?
But totally worth it, right?
Oh, yeah.
Three awful days, spent a bunch of money.
Can we tell you to go to one-dish?
I really dropped the ball.
Yeah.
I couldn't have been more straightforward with you.
I know.
Very simple.
Stampede's always here.
You're not that smart that you should be thinking you can overrule us.
No.
I hate the wrong choice.
Yeah.
And now I'm paying the price.
But now my dad's here from Alabama for the week, grandparents, so it's a little crazy.
Do you have a question moving forward, Dean, that I wanted to raise?
Since Friday is Hawaiian T-shirt Day, but we're not doing shows on Fridays,
how do you feel about Hawaiian T-shirt Thursdays?
Because if it feels forced, I'm not going to do it.
We can do Hawaiian T-shirt Thursdays moving forward, but it's Stampede Week.
Yeah, not this week.
You've got an A game.
Oh.
Maybe you throw that bad boy.
Throw the old,
your bowling shirt from Nashville.
Throw that one on.
Yeah.
Cover your ribs.
Yeah.
I'm going to,
you know what?
I'm going to defer to you.
I'll be here on Thursday,
I think.
And I'll take my cues from you.
You know what?
Just do it makes you happy,
dude.
Yeah.
Fair enough.
Subscribe and like to the YouTube,
to the podcast.
There's no more Google podcast or something.
Yeah.
I also saw that YouTube is the number one vehicle for people to consume podcasts.
I believe that.
I would not have believed that two years ago.
I wouldn't be far stretched to think that YouTube's the number one vehicle for entertainment.
It's the number two search engine in the world after Google.
And yeah, I can only, it's a YouTube world.
I'm glad you got some ownership in that, Dean.
Yeah, I'm glad you started that.
company right from ground the ground floor i was part of it you and what's his name the guy that
started youtube yeah yeah this is stors storstice the stovkowski william stromgren
