He just said on the news that Nelson played the whole game with Leidner out with a hip pointer?

He is confused. Nelson has the hip pointer. Kill said that they didn't rotate the quarterbacks for fear of Nelson getting stiff sitting out a series or two and his hip pointer would end up hurting worse because of it.

Remember, TC media is TC media.

I hate the incompetent idiotic uninformed Twin Cities media. It's their effing job. SMH.
 

Last week it was Ben Vereen, how he stays in the media is beyond me.

Most people get and keep jobs based more on who they know than their abilities to competently do the job.

On the KFAN post game Claeys said they kept Leidner out of the game due to a hip pointer, that it would have been tough for him given the cold weather combined with the hip pointer to play. That's where Max got that from.

Actually, I listened to the post game show. And Coach Kill (possibly Claeys, because they interviewed both right after each other, but I think it was Kill) said that Leidner didn't play because of a hip pointer. I know all week that it was Nelson who had the bad hip, but that's clearly what he said and I noted it. So that's where Max got it...


Or I could just say what Josh087 said right above. He obviously heard it too...
 



So if I have this correct Leidner didn't play because of Nelson's Hip Pointer.

Dynamite investigative work by Max. His research for the week consisted of him listening to the radio.

Great work Maxy!

Astute observation. This time you are perfect! No other explanation in view of "the facts." If someone misspeaks we just make up new facts.
 

The clarification I heard on the Leidner not playing due to Nelson's hip pointer is that if Nelson sits too long he would tighten up in the cold weather.
 


Mike Max was actually right this time. Coach Kill said yesterday after the game that leidner was out with a hip pointer
 


I listened to the post game. Whoever was doing the interview asked Kill why Nelson played the whole game and Leidner did not play. Kill said he had a hip pointer and they were afraid if he came out and sat on the bench it may tighten up.

Maxy heard him wrong.

The 'he' could have referred to either one, but those in the know knew Nelson had a hip pointer. Should have been easy to figure out.

Ya think?
 



Lundy. Coach misspoke. Husker cleared that up using his sardonic wit (derisive mocking).
 

So the next time a sports reporter gets something backwards can we call it the Mike Max hip pointer award?

Or should we just call it the Sid Award?

"What do you know, you're from Chicago."

...and they still have a certain rating share of people whose radio never leaves the frequency because the knob's been frozen there since the '40's. They could run 24 hours of Sleep Number ads and the sheep would still listen intently. What a racket.
