Take a shot every time he says "yeah" with a disinterested tone after asking a question.But that means i'd have to listen to Paul Allen...
Wow. PA is such an unbelievable hack. I actually tuned in to catch some Gopher coverage. Missed the Fleck interview, but was listening to the producer's analysis of the program and what is in store for this season. PA was just chiming in with his "Yup, yeah, ok" disinterested crap. Then PA started talking about Ron Johnson being the featured WR this year for the Gophers. Annoying, but the producer tried to keep going with his takes. But PA would not stop talking about Ron Johnson being the best WR on this year's team and just kept going and going. That guy is such a frickin tool. Every time I accidentally listen because my radio was still on KFAN from Barriero, I am reminded why I dont listen to him anymore. Just a moron.
He's a Vikings pimp first, last and always.
Nope strike that. Bad analogy. The Vikings pay him not the other way around.
Then you wonder why I love it everytime they lose. The Twin City media and hacks like him. Enough said.

What season is he talking about? Is it the year 2000? Is Glen Mason still the coach?

The thing that bothers me is by doing the Ron Johnson shtick you're basically dismissing the Gophers. Saying they're not worth any time or attention. On the flagship station of Gopher football.
I honestly don't expect him to know all the Gopher sports. I don't even expect him to know much about the football team. But if it's being discussed, then either ask questions (Do they have a go to receiver this year? Do they have the talent at X position? Etc.) or shut up. Don't belittle it. If you are a sportscaster on any station that doesn't carry the Gophers? Belittle all you want. I won't like it, but I don't feel like you're obligated to promote the program.
I would think the bosses there would say something. He's basically telling people not to tune into KFAN anytime they have a Gopher Sports program.
So, did anyone actually listen to the Fleck interview? Did anyone say anything relating to Gopher Football? Will our heroes ever find true happiness? Will Flash Gordon defeat Emperor Ming and save the Earth?

What did PJ say?
-Only seen QBs in winter conditioning and 15 practices. Won't get complete mastery of offense until Year 2. 22 guys out. First appearance in front of us in training camp, haven't evaluated yet. Very unique year. Give them things they can handle.
I don't remember all the questions but it was basically nothing at all new to those that follow Gopher football even somewhat closely. I think he asked about quarterback and which side of the field they'd be on. You can probably guess what the answers were.
-Fallen in love with Twin Cities. A lot of people when they first come here aren't too sure about it, but eventually they never want to leave. It's that type of a place to us already. Other than Pitino, all our neighbors are amazing. So much to do here. People have been incredible. Still in honeymoon stage, but people have shown their hearts to us.
-Failing is growth. If we expect these 17 to 22 year olds to be perfect, we're crazy. We're going to strive to be perfect. Perfection is what we're chasing.
-We all want to focus on winning a championship, and everyone will celebrate on that day, but that's a long time from now. The dream is in the process....it's built in. When we get there, it'll be a big deal to us. Gotta enjoy the process. Failing is what makes the success actually happen, because of how we respond.
-Players one week left of summer workouts. Coaches have time off with families. Unofficial visits coming up.
-Fall training camp completely different from spring. No time allotments. Grow a lot during training camp. Player-friendly.
-Talked about time with 49ers. Doesn't matter the number of reps, but how you do on every rep.

All this anti-PA talk here is odd. I feel some gopherholers are just negative toward all media for some reason. PA is on board with the Gophers, and he has very positive takes about them.
Did you listen? He said Ron was playing for the gophers this year. Obviously joking but still dumb.You clearly misheard PA. He is great friends with Ron Johnson, and he is a regular on his show. Ron will be working with the wide receivers this year, and PA was talking about how great that will be for the team. He always refers to Ron as the greatest WR in Gopher history...he was not calling him the best WR on the team this season. You either misheard, or are blatantly lying just to go with this whole anti-PA crowd.
PA is also a big fan of PJ Fleck.
