1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,160
Speaker 1: I'm tired of Aaron Rodgers, but we're going to talk

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: about him anyway. Joining me now is Post Casette columnist

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: Paul's iis, Paul, what did you make of what Rogers

4
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: said on McAfee, which was mostly a big nothing burger.

5
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just think that he's a guy who at

6
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 2: this point, I'm with you, Mark, I wish he would

7
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 2: just go away. I don't know, you know what his

8
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 2: angle is. And he says there's no decisions that have

9
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 2: been made, that the Steelers haven't offered him a contract

10
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 2: I had written maybe I don't know, three weeks ago.

11
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 2: That quite frankly, Aaron Rodgers shouldn't change the Steelers' plans

12
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: one way or the other. You know, if they want

13
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 2: to wait are out for him for a couple of weeks,

14
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 2: that's fine, but you know they need to if he signs,

15
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 2: it doesn't change the fact that if they wanted to

16
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: draft the guy, they could, or if they wanted to

17
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: get will in a shot, they could still do that.

18
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: I mean to me, they've got to figure out what

19
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: they want to do at quarterback and go from there.

20
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 3: But they never look past the next year.

21
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 2: Paul.

22
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: You know that, and that is the attraction of Aaron Rodgers,

23
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: and to me, he's playing the Steelers again. He planted

24
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: the Seeds yesterday that they don't really want him, that

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: they haven't made an offer. But why would you make

26
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 1: an offer to him until you know for sure he's

27
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: gonna play.

28
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 3: Well?

29
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 2: And I'd go one step further, Mark, I would make

30
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: sure that he understands that whatever we offer you, that's

31
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 2: that's it. There's no negotiation. You know, you know it

32
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: will take you if you want to come back, but

33
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 2: this is what the terms are. And if you don't

34
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 2: like him or don't can't live with him, then you've

35
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 2: got to move on. And we're gonna move on, right

36
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: I think. I think last year, you know, it's not

37
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: a lot last year, Mike, Mark, like they were trying

38
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: to sort of go all in, even though they kept

39
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 2: saying they weren't. So it kind of makes sense that

40
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: they were holding out for Aaron Rodgers and they were trying.

41
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 2: You know, this year makes no sense. You've got a

42
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: new coach, a new era, a new regime, whatever you

43
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: want to say. You know, if your plan is to

44
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: try and flop together another nine or dead win season

45
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 2: and hit lightning in a Bottle. Well, then to me,

46
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 2: you're the most short sighted organization that there is out there.

47
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: Well, they are the most short sighted organization there is

48
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: out there, and that's indicated they're desperation, Paul, to just

49
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:33,399
Speaker 1: win a playoff game.

50
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 3: I mean, they're so attached to Rogers.

51
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: They ran Ben off, they ran Troy off, they ran

52
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: Hines off, they cut Franco. But why are they letting

53
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: this guy do what they didn't let those guys do

54
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: who certainly did a lot more for this logo?

55
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: Right? And I think it's because they believe that Aaron

56
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 2: Rodgers still has a little bit of something left in

57
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: them to win. But I mean, if you look, if

58
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: you remember the last season of Ben Roethlisberger, was he

59
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: really that much different than what they got from Rogers

60
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 2: last year?

61
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 3: Statistically? He was better?

62
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: That's what I mean. My point is, I just don't understand.

63
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 2: You know, the flip side of it is, if you

64
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 2: look at the scrap heap of guys that are going

65
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: to be available at quarterback this year, Rodgers probably so

66
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 2: is the best of them. But that's not because he's great.

67
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 2: It's because that crop of guys, you know that we're

68
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: looking at the Zach Wilsons, and you know, the mac

69
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 2: Jones and some of these guys. It's just there's not

70
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: a lot out there. If they're gonna try and through

71
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 2: the whole, let's get a veteran quarterback and see if

72
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: we can win eight or nine games.

73
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: To me, we'll see where the Steelers are headed on

74
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: the first day of free agency, which is next Wednesday,

75
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: with the tampering proceeding on Monday.

76
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 3: If the Steelers are serious.

77
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: People, they need to sign a wide out for whatever

78
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: they got to pay a legit wide on on the

79
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: first day of free agency, somebody like Alec Pierce, and

80
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: I bet they don't, right.

81
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: They need to do that, Mark, and they also need

82
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 2: to commit early in the draft to get at least one,

83
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: if not two wide outs, And they also need to

84
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 2: get a tackle. I mean, you know, Frederick Jones, you

85
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 2: don't know what you have in him. And if you're

86
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 2: gonna wait for him to get back and get healthy

87
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: before you try and address that position, you're gonna end

88
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: up with another guy off the scrap heat. So to me,

89
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: I mean, they've got some really easy to see gaping holes. Receiver,

90
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 2: one of them, tackle, one of them, defensive line either

91
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 2: even I would say they need one and probably another quarter.

92
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 2: They need to get to work and get to work early.

93
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 1: We're talking to Paul Seiss of the Postcase at this

94
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: segment brought list by eighty four lumber Dynasty partner the

95
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. Cutch just signed a minor league deal with Texas.

96
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: Doesn't that prove the Pirates correct not want cuts back?

97
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: No other MLB team wanted them.

98
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you know, he's signed a minor league deal. Uh.

99
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 2: But but but this is sort of like the same

100
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 2: conversation we just had about the Stewards. At some point,

101
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 2: you have to move on and move forward. And I

102
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 2: think one of the things that the Pirates looked at

103
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 2: Andrew McCutcheon and basically said, you know, no disrespect to

104
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 2: Andrew McCutcheon, but we can get that kind of production

105
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: from a million other people, and we don't have to,

106
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: you know, uh, feel like we we we have to

107
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: bend down and kiss the brass ring because of who

108
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 2: he is. I mean, that's really what it comes down to.

109
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: Because think about it, Mark, if if they sign him

110
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: again and he stinks, you know, and and he's not good,

111
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 2: then what you got then what you're gonna do. You're

112
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: gonna be the guy that you know puts the DFAs

113
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 2: Andrew McCutcheon, Uh, you know, or or or he's gonna

114
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 2: run away on the bench. Uh. He's already proven that.

115
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: Even though you know, he's been a great uh ambassador

116
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 2: for the Pirates and all that other stuff, he's also

117
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: mark not very good when he comes just Grounalds. And

118
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 2: I just don't know that, you know, I think of

119
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 2: you're pirates, You're looking at your clubhouse and you're like,

120
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: we can't take the chance of having Andrey McCutcheon sitting

121
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 2: in the you know, at the end of the bench,

122
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 2: and we can't you know, playing because we've got other

123
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 2: better options every day and who knows what's going to

124
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: happen if you know.

125
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 3: No, No, I agree.

126
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: I think he's a good clubhouse guy as long as

127
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: he gets his own way and gets.

128
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 3: His at bats.

129
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: And I never got cut his self importance Paul with

130
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: the Pirates. I never felt like they treated him bad.

131
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: And I think he sees himself like in a Clemente light.

132
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think the one thing about him

133
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 2: is you know, you you said it exactly the right way.

134
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 2: He's a great leader and a great clubhouse guy as

135
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 2: long as everything is going his way and he's getting

136
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 2: what he wants. I mean, we've seen in the past

137
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 2: at times when he didn't get what he wanted, or

138
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 2: he didn't feel like he was being being respected the

139
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: right way, whether the team or if he was upset

140
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 2: about it, or you know, when they started transitioning him,

141
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: you know, to to play other positions and at DH

142
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 2: he's never really handled that, you know, with grace, and

143
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 2: I think that you know, at the end of the day,

144
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 2: you look at Andrew McCutcheon, and yes, he is sort

145
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: of the catalyst and the cornerstone to what was a

146
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 2: renaissance you know era for the Pirates by the same token,

147
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: they never won anything. So you know, putting him in

148
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 2: a category where some of the guys from the seventies

149
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 2: or the sixties, you know what I mean, or whatever,

150
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 2: it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I mean,

151
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 2: I think he's a very you know, he's probably one

152
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 2: of the most popular Pirates ever and you know, but

153
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 2: I don't know where he fits among like the all.

154
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: Time great Well there has not been this great fan

155
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: outcry because of his departure, there's been you know, the

156
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: usual bitching on Twitter and talk shows, but the enthusiasm

157
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: about the Pirates with maybe Connor Griffin coming up, you know,

158
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: for opening Day and schemes back for a third season,

159
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: it's just the excitement has overwhelmed his departure, and that

160
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: tells a story too.

161
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely. I mean I think when you, you know,

162
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 2: take a look at a hole of the Pirate fan base,

163
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,559
Speaker 2: I think most of them are really excited about the team,

164
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 2: and most of them, if you ask them, their position

165
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 2: is we loved Andrew McCutcheon and what he did for

166
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 2: the Pirates, but it's time for them to move on,

167
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: and we're excited because you know, it looks like in

168
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 2: moving on they have a chance to be pretty good.

169
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 2: So you know, it's it's I've said it before. I

170
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 2: don't like, kind of completely like the way the Pirates

171
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 2: handled it, but it absolutely needed to be this outcome

172
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: where the outcome is they moved on from Andrew McCutcheon.

173
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 3: What kind of deal do the Penguins need to make? Big, little,

174
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 3: no deal. I don't think there's any urgency. I don't

175
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 3: think they're.

176
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: Poised for a playoff run and I think one reason

177
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: why they're in the playoffs is because their chemistry and

178
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: the way the team fits right now is good. I mean,

179
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: i'd take an extra center for while Sid's out, but

180
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: but again I don't see the urgency poll.

181
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 2: No, And then you know, I actually actually was sorrying

182
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 2: about this a couple of days ago. I think one

183
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: of the biggest things about this team is I don't

184
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 2: know that there's an obvious move, you know, like over

185
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 2: the over the course of time, you know, like a

186
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 2: Jim Rutherver type of move, where there's an obvious move

187
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 2: that they need a wing or they need a you

188
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 2: know this, or they needed that to get over the

189
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 2: top or give themselves a chance to get over the top,

190
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 2: you know, the the big, big, big move. I don't

191
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 2: think it's there. I don't know that there's really a

192
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 2: whole lot you could do with one move to to

193
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 2: significantly change this team. I do think if they could find,

194
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 2: you know, they could find maybe one more defense than that,

195
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 2: you know, to add to their their their arsenal at

196
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 2: the blue line type thing, they could maybe make themselves

197
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 2: a little bit deeper in that area and maybe a

198
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 2: little bit better and maybe have a little bit more

199
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 2: versatility in terms of the kinds of defense that they have.

200
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: But you know, you know, I guess, like you said,

201
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 2: if you if you want to come find it just

202
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,479
Speaker 2: one more center. But the problem is, you know Crosby's

203
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 2: going to be back in three weeks, so I don't

204
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 2: know if you want to make a move. It's that temporary.

205
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: And somebody else could get hurt. I mean you look

206
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: at Lazat, who's supposed to be back tonight. So so yeah, no,

207
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: I don't think they need anything drastic. Come with you,

208
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: how do you think it's going to play out with

209
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 1: the getting Malk And it's very much a McCutcheon like situation.

210
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: And uh and how do you think it should play out?

211
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 4: Uh?

212
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 2: Well, I've been on the train that you know it

213
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 2: probably should have ended with Malk and you know, probably

214
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: a year or two ago that you know they need

215
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 2: to move forward, and that sort of keeping him around

216
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 2: and and and even to a lesser degree, La Tang,

217
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 2: I mean, keeping those guys around sort of kept you

218
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 2: from really fully embracing future and rebuilding and all that stuff.

219
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: That being said, I believe that he might actually get

220
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: one more year out of this, just because you know,

221
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 2: everything I've read and listening to guys like you that

222
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 2: are real close to it, you know, it sounds to

223
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 2: me like the captain wants some around.

224
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: Well, no, there's no question about that. But that's not

225
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: even depending on how Gino's playing. It just likes his right,

226
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: his cocoon, and I would bring Geno back if I

227
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 1: had to make the decision right now, Paul. But but

228
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: nobody has to make that decision right now. A lot

229
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: can happen between now and seasons end with both Geno

230
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,599
Speaker 1: and the team. So I don't think Dubas and the

231
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: Penguin should be all excoriated for wanting to wait.

232
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,599
Speaker 2: No, absolutely, Especially the other part of it is, I

233
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 2: think it's important. I think it's really important to know

234
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 2: what are the terms of that, Like, what does the

235
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 2: contract look like, you know, for him? Because I think

236
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 2: that that would be Another part of the equation is

237
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 2: how much, like how much you'd be willing to pay Mark.

238
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: I mean to me, if you start getting more than

239
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 2: like four four and a half million, I don't know

240
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 2: if I love that deal that much.

241
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 1: Well, he's he's getting six point one now. I mean

242
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 1: to be honest, I don't think you should get more

243
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: than four point five or five. But I wouldn't quipple

244
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: over giving him six point one again because they have

245
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 1: a lot of cap space and the caps going up,

246
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: so I wouldn't let a million bucks be a deal breakers.

247
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, if I saw the value in bringing

248
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: him back.

249
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean I think, obviously, you know, the

250
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 2: biggest thing that obviously he brings is he's he's still

251
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: a guy that can score, you know, and so you know,

252
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 2: you can live without, you can live with some of

253
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 2: the some of the negatives of his game. But I

254
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 2: just think that I like really what Kyle Dubis has

255
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 2: done in terms of really starting to transition the team

256
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 2: away from you know, this last arrow, which was an

257
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: incredible error obviously, you know, and you the three cups

258
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 2: and everything else that went with it. But to me,

259
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 2: I like the fact that the Penguins have been a

260
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 2: lot more progressive and forward thinking than the Steelers, and

261
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 2: that the Penguins would have, you know, they were willing

262
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 2: to make some bold moves, and I think moving on

263
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 2: from a guy like Gino would be a full move.

264
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 2: I know, you know, we've talked about it for a

265
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: year or two, but uh, my point is sometimes these

266
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 2: organizations they're not they're not willing or able to do

267
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 2: those things. I think cal Dubis has a really good

268
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 2: plan and I think you can see it if you

269
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 2: look at what they have coming and all the draft picks.

270
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 2: He's a mass and everything else. So to me, uh,

271
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 2: you know, I'm on the fence about Gino, But to me,

272
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 2: I feel like cal dub is, if he really wants

273
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 2: to turn the page and move forward, it might not

274
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 2: be the worst thing in the world to move on.

275
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 3: Paul, great stuff. We'll talk again soon. Thanks for joining me.

276
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 2: Oh, thanks man, we'll talk to you.

277
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: That's Paul's that actually will be talking real soon because uh,

278
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to Johnstown tomorrow night to see Junior a

279
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: hockey at the War Memorial, and Paul will be hosting

280
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 1: for me and I will be joining him as his guest.

281
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: To wrap up the trade deadline tomorrow at about four o'clock,

282
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: we got Steve burn in the studio. At the bottom

283
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: of the hour. We got the DV comedy Jam coming up.

284
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that and up next, what do you

285
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: think about Rogers, about Malkin, about McCutcheon. That's a pretty

286
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: big menu to pick from A three, three, four, one

287
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: two w x eed is a lot of loose talk.

288
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 2: I like it.

289
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 3: I like it t X at one five.

290
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: Nine, Yeah, I'll gubus sweet nectar. We got Steve burn

291
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: just around the corner and studio. The DVE Comedy Jam

292
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: is coming up. We'll talk at length about that. Tickets

293
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: going on sale real soon. We would try to decipher

294
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: all the gibberish Aaron Rodgers put out there yesterday. He

295
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: lit the Will Howe match well, really poured gasoline in

296
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: an already existing fire, said how great it was to

297
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: work with Will Howard and he can play at this level.

298
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. Hey, I would play Howard ahead of Rogers.

299
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: Either go three and fifteen or you get Arch or

300
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: he plays great and it's a happy accident. You find

301
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: your guy. I think Rogers is the worst of the choices.

302
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: I don't think you can go right by bringing back Rogers.

303
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: But they really really want to now, Rappaport said, the

304
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: Steelers expect the decision from Rogers before free agency. Well, okay,

305
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: but that's next Wednesday, and Tampa starts Monday. And we

306
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: keep hearing from guys like Rappaport and schefter any minute now,

307
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: any minute now, Any minute now, any minute now. It

308
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: reminds me when I'm a kid and we're driving someplace

309
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: for vacation and I kept sitting to my mom, are

310
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: we almost there yet?

311
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 3: And she would say, yeah, more minutes, and she was lying, Uh, yeah.

312
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: So free agency starts Wednesday, Tampa starts Monday, and Rogers

313
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: on McAfee. He gave no indication of deciding imminently. Rappaport

314
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: also said the Steelers won't offer a contract to play.

315
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: No Rogers is gonna play, which is as it should be,

316
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: but it makes the situation so chicken an egg.

317
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 3: But the yolks on the Steelers chicken egg yoke get it.

318
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: Like I said on the first day of free agency,

319
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers need to get Alec Pierce the Wide not

320
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: from Indy, but he's too good and too expensive, and

321
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: they're gonna be so busy worrying about Rogers that everything

322
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 1: else is gonna pass them by.

323
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 3: Uh, let's go to Ray Ray your own double.

324
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 2: M a big sexy. I was just gonna ask you about.

325
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: Will Howard, what happened to him and why did they

326
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: draft him if they're not gonna use them because twenty

327
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: of six round players get drafted and barely used. If ever,

328
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: it's not an uncommon phenomenon. You don't draft the sixth

329
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: round quarterback with the intention of him being your starter.

330
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 1: You draft him with the intention of him being at

331
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: first just practice fodder and then maybe your backup.

332
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 4: What round was Tom Brady drafted in?

333
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 3: You're right, every.

334
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: Time I think of Tom Brady, I think it will Howard?

335
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 1: Are you really that stupid? Are you really seriously? You

336
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: need you need to take a look in the mirror

337
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: and say, am I so stupid that I just compared with?

338
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 3: Are we that stupid?

339
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 4: I forgot more than your no, fat boy?

340
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,160
Speaker 1: Really, well, you'd certainly stooped to the fat insults right away.

341
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 1: There's another real good six round pick, Mark Bulger. My friend,

342
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 1: he's not him either, fat boy. I'd yank your ass

343

00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 5: other day and somebody paid exact change. It like put

Speaker 5: two pennies, and I was like, I totally get like

401
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 5: a mass shooting. I get it now. It's like I understand,

402
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 5: I can't I ought to go home.

403
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: I was doing my taxes today with my accountant, which

404
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 1: is like you know Roller Derby, you know in the

405
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:48,400
Speaker 1: New Millennium, right, And he said that you can't pay

406
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: by check anymore with Federal income text. You have to

407
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 1: do it on a computer, and if you don't have

408
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 1: access to a computer, you have to file for an exemption.

409
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking, yeah, all the homeless people at the

410
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: top of the where I live here, I'm gonna hand

411
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 1: these out. You gotta you gotta file these so you

412
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: can pay your taxes without a check.

413
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 3: Well you do not have a check either.

414
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 5: Oh okay, yeah, well this year this year, you oh,

415
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,640
Speaker 5: three grand of venezuela, another two to Ukraine. Right, It's

416
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 5: just like where's all the and and and Somalia. I

417
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 5: mean that's where I figured.

418
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: Venezuela would be kicking in by now. I think they could.

419
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 1: You know what we're getting there, kudov set Yeah.

420
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 5: You know, Venezuela is responsible for eighteen percent of the

421
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 5: world's oil production, so we we own that.

422
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 3: Now, we're in possession of that.

423
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 5: So I think Americans we should be stocked up between

424
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 5: Venezuela and Diddy.

425
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,199
Speaker 1: You know, Iran qualified for the World Cup, which is

426
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:38,479
Speaker 1: in North America this summer.

427
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 3: I'm thinking them coming here could be uncomfortable.

428
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 5: I'm no detective here, but uh yeah, you know it's

429
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 5: gonna be a little dicey, and I figured, like it's

430
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 5: in it's in the US, Canada and Mexico.

431
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: Okay, so I okay, they're not going to advance to

432
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 1: the knockout rounds. Just put them in Mexico and Canada. Nope,

433
00:21:58,320 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: two in two, right to the middle.

434
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

435
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 3: When Calli won in Seattle.

436
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, it's like, uh, we're we're gonna be They'll

00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 5: be the home team.

438
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 3: Well, security is gonna be pretty tight.

439
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 5: The World Baseball Class was pretty interesting scene Canada and

440
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 5: Mexico fighting that big, big bench bawl yesterday it was like, oh, look,

Speaker 5: start over.

453
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 3: Well, does he have a wife? He says he does.

454
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 1: Nobody's ever seen her, and ordinarily I'd say that's nobody's business.

455
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: But no, he's dated nothing but actresses and race car drivers. Yeah,

456
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, why wouldn't I be curious? And

457
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,880

00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 3: but he's not.

462
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's dated all tens and now it's a zero.

463
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 5: It's like what you've created, this legend of Sasquatch. Everybody's

464
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 5: waiting for the for the visual. So I think all

465
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 5: it takes is just like just give us a little

466
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 5: little pink spoon, even just like half a face and

467
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 5: a selfie. That's it and then it's over.

468
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,959
Speaker 1: Or like tweet out, like like you posing with the

469
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: cardboard cutout of somebody famous and say that's her.

470
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 3: At least at least have a sense that you were

471
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 3: about the law exactly. Yeah.

472
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that dude is not going anywhere obviously. There's

473
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,640
Speaker 5: look anybody in that position, there's a bit of an ego, right,

474
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 5: I mean he's been he's been the top chiese since

475
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 5: he was fifteen or sixteen.

476
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 3: I get it for that.

477
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, So its just like let's just just

478
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 5: admit you're you're going to be part of the media sphere,

479
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 5: whether it's his own or whatever. He's got great personality.

480
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 5: If you could date a celebrity, who would it be?

481
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 5: Oh boy, if I could date a select you know

482
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 5: what this would be. People are gonna think that's disgusting,

483
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 5: But I'm telling you, Jessica Lang, I've always had a

484
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 5: crush on her since I was a kid, but King Kong. Yeah,

485
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 5: and if I could, I think she's still like beautiful. Look,

486
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 5: I wouldn't be like romantically, but I would love to

487
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 5: go on a date with Jessica Lang. How about that

488
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 5: I take her to Chili's, I treat her like a

489
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 5: I walk her hand up the ramp, the handicaper ramp.

490
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 5: But one date with Jessica Lang, that'd be it. I

491
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:25,959
Speaker 5: just still think she's fantastic.

492
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: You and I were talking off fair that that we've

493
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: both reached the age where like drooling over you know,

494
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 1: young women, whether you on stage or or me on

495
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: the radio.

496
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 3: It's it's very distasteful.

497
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: But yes, and that said, you know how I've gotten

498
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:44,199
Speaker 1: around that the celebrity I would date would be Zach Effern. Okay, no, no, no, no,

499
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: I'm straight, But somehow that doesn't seem as creepy.

500
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 3: And he is hot. I mean I would, I'm not. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I.

501
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 5: Did kill Tony and he was there, he was in

502
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 5: the audience and saw him and yeah, he's still like

503
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 5: even it all takes us a bad picture online, right, he.

504
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: Had the harreck and he had a little facial reconstruction. Yeah,

505
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: but still handsome, you know, I mean he still looks

506
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 1: the same in jeans. That's my big concern. Yeah, yeah,

507
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: what but uh okay, Penguins talk. You're a Penguins guy.

508
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it. Should have Getty Malkin stay or

509
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 3: should he go?

510
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 5: I think he's earned the contract. I think what Dubas

511
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 5: is doing is probably right. He's he's staving it off.

512
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 5: He's playing it smart. And I think the minute your committal,

513
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 5: then all of a sudden, maybe you kind of cool

514
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 5: the jets a little bit. I think you you always

515
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 5: dangle that carrot and you know he's he's producing this year.

516
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 3: And in theory, you're right, But I think he might

517
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 3: go booboo face. You think he's boo boo face because

518
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 3: there's a ego right.

519
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: Just yet, but like, like, see, here's the thing, if

520
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: if if I made the decision, I would bring him back.

521
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 3: He's a point per game.

522
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: You know, he's looked good, he's ignited that China Koff

523
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: guy they got from Columbus.

524
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, here's the thing. I wouldn't do it. Now, I'll

525
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 3: do what Kyle's doing and wait, there's no reason to

526
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 3: not wait.

527
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you incentivize a contract you give. You

528
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 5: want to be respectful, but you incentivize it, right, and

529
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 5: then give him something to work towards.

530
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 3: And I think even if he starts to.

531
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 5: Peter out, well you got you got a still a

532
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 5: power play specialist.

533
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there's a lot he can still do.

534
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: But I don't see a problem. I mean, what if

535
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: he blew out his knee the day after you give

536
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 1: him the contract? Now, what if they lose every game

537
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: from here or not, he doesn't get any points? You know, right,

538
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: there's twenty games left, Steven, he's thirty nine.

539
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 3: A lot can happen.

540
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

541
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 5: I almost think it's kind of like when you have

542
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 5: somebody like him, when you have somewhere like Crosby. Granted

543
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 5: it hasn't affected him yet, but Latang, you're seeing the

544
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 5: wear and tear. It's like, why not just kind of

545
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 5: play these guys every few games and then as you're

546
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,239
Speaker 5: marching towards the playoffs, then you kind of go all in.

547
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 5: So let him rest up a little bit, get into

548
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 5: the rhythm of the season, and eventually like then go

549
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 5: full gas.

550
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 3: Will you be at the Mari Lem New Fantasy camp

551
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 3: coming up? I will, Oh, you are tremendous. Yeah, do

552
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 3: you your coffee backed out?

553
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 2: No?

554
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: Really selfish Jerky took the job helping coach the Oilers.

555
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell you this.

556
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: He was coaching them and they had a great defense

557
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: and especially power play quote unquote retired, and now they're there.

558
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: They've dipped in every way the Oilers could possibly dip

559
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:06,359
Speaker 1: it in. Hey, you better come.

560
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,360
Speaker 3: Back right right.

561
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 5: Well, look, during that whole tenure at the Fantasy camp,

562
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 5: when I got to skate with all those guys, he

563
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 5: is beyond the biggest chirper I've ever heard a questions. Yeah,

564
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 5: it was hilarious. I was like, you look like Henry Winkler.

565
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 5: He's like, I look like Henry wink I look like

566
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 5: the Fonds. I'm like, no, you look like Henry Winkler.

567
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 5: That was my chairp against them.

568
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 1: Did you ever see that that dice game he plays

569
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: in the locker room. No, it's like he has this

570
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: game he gets the campers used to get, you know,

571
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: his teammates involved. It's take this five dice out of

572
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: hot works. I think he's the only guy that really

573
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 1: knows how it works.

574
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 3: Yeah. So so he wins all the time, and it's

575
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 3: for money. Of course.

576
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: But you know, if I'm a rich guy and everybody

577
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: is at that camp, right, you get to play a

578
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: dice game with Paul Coffee.

579
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 3: That's awesome.

580
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that him him playing a dice game

582
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 5: that's got bitcoin. Only he knows what's going on, right,

583
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 5: It's like, I guess I'll give you my money.

584
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: I walked into the room at the camp a couple

585
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: of years ago and I see him with the dice

586
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: in the campers, and I go, oh my god, you

587
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,959

Speaker 1: respect anybody who didn't try to.

619
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 5: Steal a little Well, we did the show. Look, it

620
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 5: started off with the Roxy. Every comedian that you know

621
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 5: has done the show. So comedians come out, we do

622
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 5: ten minutes a stand up, and then we sing any

623
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 5: song we want with a live band. Usually it's like

624
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 5: sing along as everybody knows, you know, don't stop believing,

625
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 5: you know, living on a prayer, all those kinds of things.

626
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 3: Billy Gardell, what like, Paul, what did he did last year?

627
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 3: You did Tom Petty and it was quite open right right.

628
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 3: It was tremendous.

629
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, Brian Quinn did it last year from Practical Jokers.

630
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 5: He doesn't sing, and he's like, I don't sing. I'm

631
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 5: petrified to sing. Michael, we got to sing something, and

632
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 5: he did the most genius thing. And these guys have

633
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 5: been doing the show for ten years. I go, have

634
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 5: you ever seen anybody do it? They go never he

635
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,239
Speaker 5: sang tequila. So all he did was every time they

636
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 5: did tequila, he had four shots lined up and you

637
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 5: say tequila.

638
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 3: Just he did it and then he throw the pee

639
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 3: wee herman. It was great, not bad now, Uh, you

640
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 3: know it was great last year. Is he going to

641
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 3: be back? dB?

642
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 5: Sweetey, DB's gonna come down. He's gonna be a special guest.

643
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 5: He's tremendous. Everybody knows him from the cutting Edge, Lowsom Dove,

644
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 5: eight Men Out, Joe Yah Hulis, Joe Jackson. So he'll

645
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 5: be here. And he told a great peer Lewue story.

646
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 5: But he still plays hockey. He and I played in

647
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 5: a Beer League team together for a while. So he's

648
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 5: a special guest. And another special guest is Brendan Wayne,

649
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 5: who's the Mandalorian. So everybody knows Pedro Pascal takes the

650
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,719
Speaker 5: helmet off for a scene in the movie or a

651
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 5: scene once every season in the Mandalorian, but Brendan's the

652
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 5: guy behind the mask ninety nine percent of the time.

653
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 3: So he'll be here, and he did. He did a

654
00:30:58,240 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 3: meet and greet last year.

655
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 5: He took pictures and signed picked sign things for people

656
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 5: the whole time before the show.

657
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 3: Well, I got up there last year and did it

658
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 3: tight forty five seconds. I killed it. You did great? Yeah,

659
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 3: I do.

660
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: I lied about the the Peng was traded Crosby. Is

661
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: that what I said?

662
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 3: I lied?

663
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. And then I think

664
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 5: you're saying the in the the last thing.

665
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 2: And sing along.

666
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: You know, it's great, it's it's a tremendous event. And

667
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: you know what else was a tremendous event was the

668
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: US men's and women's hockey teams winning double gold. And boy,

669
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: we tried to ruin it, didn't we. I said beforehand? Yeah,

670
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: I was talking about the nineteen eighty Miracle on Ice

671
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: documentary on Netflix, right, and I said, if nineteen eighty

672
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: occurred now, would ruin it? And I don't think we

673
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: ruined the double gold. But this great nation of ar

674
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: certainly did its best.

675
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

676
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 5: I think you know, if Rocky four came out today,

677
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 5: half the country would be rooting for Ivan Drago.

678
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 1: I really think, like I said, I Wan would be

679
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 1: the home team in Seattle for the World Cup.

680
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 5: It's right, Yeah, it's it's crazy, but you know, it's

681
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 5: like leave it to the media, leave it to the

682
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 5: talking heads.

683
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 2: You know.

684
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 5: It's like anytime God forbid this mass shooting, it's politicized instantly.

685
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 3: What party can you blame?

686
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 2: Right?

687
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 5: And I think that it's the same thing what they

688
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 5: did with this thing. They politicized it instantly. I think

689
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 5: if anybody's at fault, it's Cash Betel. Cash Betel knows

690
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 5: he's going to walk into the room, He's going to

691
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 5: politicize the moment, and I think he should have had

692
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 5: a little more foresight.

693
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 3: Especially going in and acting like a frat boy.

694
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

695
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: I don't agree with Aaron Rodgers on much, but he

696
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 1: said that Cashptel should have read.

697
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 3: The room, and he didn't.

698
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 5: He I think he knows he's HyperWare, right, It's like,

699
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 5: do you do you want to do you want to

700
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 5: polarize this moment for these kids. Basically there's a bunch

701
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 5: of guys in their twenties, you know, they're just they're

702
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 5: getting shredded there there none of that.

703
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 3: Happens, None of it happens.

704
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 1: Well, no, I think I think the president would have

705
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: called it anyway. And look, it's like he signed a

706
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: contract to always say something stupid.

707
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 3: He said something stupid.

708
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 5: But I'll tell you this, I think if the roles

709
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 5: were reversed, just as a comedian, okay, and the women

710
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 5: won second okay, and the men had won the day before,

711
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 5: and that won't call it curred.

712
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 3: He'd say, you.

713
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 5: Know, I got to invite the guys too, otherwise they're

714
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 5: gonna get empitched. It's like that joke would have worked

715
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 5: both ways. And then I'll tell you that joke worked

716
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 5: on SNL when they did the thing they provided a

717
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 5: great callback. And I think to your point, we're talking

718
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 5: off air the way those two Hughes and and the

719
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 5: young lady, I think they did a great job.

720
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: No, no question, Hillary Knight, Megan Keller, just everybody did

721
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: their part. And and I think that turned it back

722
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: around that SNL and and again being on Fallon too.

723
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: I think that put all the all the attempts to

724
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: sabotage out of people's mind.

725
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 5: I think most rational American human beings would look at

726
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 5: that and go, they're just kids. They they're living their

727
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 5: best life right now. Let's enjoy it. Yeah, rational American

728
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 5: human beings. Yeah, we're not exactly overrun by those.

729
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: By the way, I thought the host Connor's story from

730
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: The Gay Hockey Show he did rivalry And I always

731
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,479
Speaker 1: tell people, I don't I love the show. I've watched it.

732
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: You've seen it, and it's really good. And I just

733
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 1: call it the Gay Hockey Show because it's easier to identify,

734
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: like everybody knows what you're talking about.

735
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 5: But if you've seen it, I've not seen it, no

736
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 5: is uh. I think it's just I'm such a hockey fan.

737
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 5: Even when I took my son to that to see

738
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 5: a movie the other day I saw the New young

739
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 5: Blood trailer. Now I was a new young Blood. Yeah,

740
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 5: they're well making young Blood. The Rob Dane remade it,

741
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 5: and Mark, I'll give you what did they do?

742
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 3: What do they do? Take a guess, how'd they cast it?

743
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 2: Oh?

744
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 3: Black guy? Yep.

745
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 5: And and now the minute you do that, okay, but

746
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 5: it almost seems like it's mandatory. Well now it's now

747
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 5: it's of course they're racist and all this other stuff,

748
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 5: and you're just like, let me tell you what.

749
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: I'm mad about. And this if my horror comedian, this

750
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 1: would be my lead bit for years. Brendan Frasier won

751
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 1: an Oscar for that movie The Whale, right right right?

752
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: Why wasn't a fat guy played by a fat guy?

753
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,760
Speaker 1: I hear that gay guys should play gay guys, lesbians

754
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 1: should play lesbians, all that stuff. Why didn't a fat

755
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 1: guy play the fat guy?

756
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 3: That's right?

757
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 2: Get why?

758
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: Because we are the last American group that can be oppressed.

759
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: And everybody says, well, if you don't like it, lose weight.

760
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,879
Speaker 3: Right exactly? Yeah, yeah, you look fantastic, by the way.

761
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's because I knew I couldn't get cast in

762
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: that role. So what was the point of, you know,

763
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: weigh in three thirty or whatever it was. Then No,

764
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: but seriously, and don't get me wrong, I watched the

765
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 1: movie Brendon Fraser was brilliant.

766
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, but still get a fat guy. There's enough fat guys.

767
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, well it's the classic. Like de Niro puts on

768
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 5: forty pounds to play al Capone. It's like every actor's challenge.

769
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 5: It makes a great story, right, But I agree with you. Now,

770
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 5: if you're going to go to Hollywood and cast a

771
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 5: fat guy in that world, just.

772
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,240
Speaker 3: Here's what Pie Goldberg? Oh that no kidding?

773
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you see she was walking a runway somewhere. Is

774
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 1: that the most recent she looked bad?

775
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 3: She looked bad?

776
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, don't get me wrong. You get to

777
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,359
Speaker 1: a certain age everybody looks bad. But I don't like her.

778
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:57,959
Speaker 1: So she looks really bad.

779
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 5: But you're in a Hollywood you have every excuse you filters,

780
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 5: you have makeup artists, you have access to the greatest

781
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 5: surgeons in the world.

782
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 3: It's like, why would you you know?

783
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 5: But part of me then I kind of respect somebody

784
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 5: that's just gonna bottom out and just be like, you

785
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 5: know what, it's RB's twenty four to seven, I got

786
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 5: the meats.

787
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 3: We haven't talked about the Pirate chair. Are they still

788
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 3: going to soccer?

789
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 5: You a Pirates guy, you know it's become hard to

790
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 5: be a Pirates fan. But knowing what they've done, it's like,

791
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 5: all right, they're they're attempting, I think in their best way.

792
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 5: They're taking big swings and they're making an attempt. So

793
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,720
Speaker 5: there's a lot of intrigue. I'll watch see. But that's

794
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 5: the thing. They didn't take big swings. They took a

795
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 5: few middling swings when prior they are never taking any

796
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 5: swings at all.

797
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,439
Speaker 3: Right, Right, so let's perspective, right.

798
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,760
Speaker 1: They got they got Ryan O'Hearn, Marcelo Zuna and Brandon

799
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: Lyle to this, you know, starved for a winner baseball title.

800
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,720
Speaker 3: Looks like they got Mickey Mantle, Babe Ruth.

801
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 5: And ty Cop right, right, But the question is is

802
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 5: it gonna be enough?

803
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 3: And we'll find out the end of this year.

804
00:36:56,200 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: Most some we have to be better not make the playoffs.

805
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 3: Is still gonna be gone? Right, I think?

806
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: You know, you know what's funny, I didn't realize how

807
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: little pitchers generally get an arbitration, which he enters next year. Right,

808
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 1: like that Trek Scooble, who's kind of like the American

809
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: League left handed Paul Skans. Right, he got like like

810
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: this year, I think twenty one million for his third

811
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 1: year of arbitration, which isn't a ton, So maybe they

812
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 1: can keep him longer than I originally thought. But then again,

813
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,760
Speaker 1: people think, well, they'll sign Connor Griffin long term because

814
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: they have a chance to win now, right, They'll sign

815
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: Paul Skins long term because they have a chance to win.

816
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 2: Now.

817
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: Those guys have a calendar on their wallet home, maybe

818
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 1: it's in their phone, and they cross off a day

819
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: closer to escape every day that passes with them still

820
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: a member of the Pirates, and that that just means

821
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 1: that they play for a small market, low budget team.

822
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: The object of baseball, now, Steve, isn't to get good

823
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,879
Speaker 1: enough to help your team win. It's to get good

824
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,959
Speaker 1: enough so that a team that can win wants you, right, right,

825
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: It's funny.

826
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 5: I think the Pirates clubhouse is literally just the Shawshank

827
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 5: prison cell. There's a poster of Rita Hayworth in the corner,

828
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 5: and eventually and you get when it's your turn, you

829
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:02,320
Speaker 5: get to lift it up and crawl.

830
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 1: Out, except it's supposed to commente you know, you know

831
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,280
Speaker 1: probably you know, probably used that exit rod as cuch.

832
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel bad, I mean, yeah, I'm not au love.

833
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: Am I the same token we talked about the beginning, like,

834
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that that's a subject that's not going away.

835
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 3: But but I don't blame them. At some point, you

836
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 3: got to turn the page.

837
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,879
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, whether it's Gino, whether it's Rogers, whether it's

838
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: the Pirates, And I give the Pirates and Penguins credit

839
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 1: for doing what the Steelers won't.

840
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:34,439
Speaker 5: Sure, Yeah, you know, it's a tough it's a tough

841
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 5: call because you how much how much? What's the barometer

842
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 5: in terms of being grateful to turning page? Thank you

843
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 5: for your story years you know. But eventually we do

844
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 5: have to move on and get some fresh legs.

845
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 1: I would think they can't wait to fire me here.

846
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: I don't think, but I am. I don't think it'll

847
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: play out like like it'll play out like Cutch. Yeah,

848
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:58,879
Speaker 1: not Rogers, not Mulking, but Cutch.

849
00:38:58,960 --> 00:38:59,399
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.

850
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 5: Slowly, the contract windows gets a little less, gets a

851
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 5: little less, and then eventually you say, well I'm not

852
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 5: doing this, and then you go and it's like, all right, well,

853
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 5: I guess I'm doing a podcast.

854
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 3: From my basement.

855
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 5: Well that's where the money is it is. Now, Yeah,

856
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 5: you have a podcast. No, you know what I did.

857
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 5: I haven't had a podcast a long time. But I

858
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 5: love writing monologue jokes. I love reading the news. I

859
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 5: love just looking at the left and the right and

860
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:21,760
Speaker 5: skewering both.

861
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 3: Like today I wrote a.

862
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 5: Christy Nome joke and then yesterday I did a Somalian

863
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 5: Minnesota joke.

864
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:27,479
Speaker 3: So I love to dump on both of them.

865
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: The problem with comedy, your stuff's great in that regard,

866
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: and the one whether it's good or bad, I don't

867
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,759
Speaker 1: know because I'm in the same boat, right, but both

868
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,959
Speaker 1: the left and right think you're on the other side

869
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: and thus hate you.

870
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 5: Well, it's funny because to me, it's day by day

871
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 5: what I'm called depending on the joke I do. You know,

872
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 5: I'm either maga or a socialist. You know, it's like

873
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 5: there's no in between. But people that slowly know me,

874
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 5: it's like, yeah, I dump on both sides. So I

875
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 5: basically do a late night talk show form where I

876
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 5: take all my monologue jokes from that week and I

877
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,280
Speaker 5: do about ten minutes of jokes just to camera.

878
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 1: Well, it's like, I mean, either I'm maga or I'm

879
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 1: socialist and throwing the zach Effron thing, and you got

880
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff for Cachet and around.

881
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 3: That's right. See where you're going from here.

882
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go to sleep and I'm gonna take a

883
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 5: Jamison map as they say. But I'm gonna go back home.

884
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 5: This is my first weekend home in Nashville in six months.

885
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 5: But I'm gonna be back at the Lemieux camp. So

886
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,840
Speaker 5: I'm excited to see you there, and I'm excited to

887
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 5: do the again, the comedy jam for the Lemieux Foundation.

888
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 5: Nancy Angus everybody with the Foundation are incredible and just

889
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 5: getting to be around Mario and and and everybody, it

890
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 5: is first class. And I'll tell you what I love

891
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,400
Speaker 5: about Mario. And I saw this the other day. I

892
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 5: think you'd appreciate this. I was watching the TV the

893
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 5: other day and Wayne Gretzky's in a commercial with Jennifer Coolidge.

894
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 5: It's like Capital one and she's dumping on him. Who's

895
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 5: this guy? Oh, I gotta gotta put my card. It's like,

896
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,399
Speaker 5: what are you doing? You're the butt of the joke.

897
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 5: You're the greatest hockey player quote unquote on paper, not

898
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 5: to us, right, Lemieux is the greatest hockey player for me.

899
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,839
Speaker 5: But in that commercial he's just getting dumped on. It's

900
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,800
Speaker 5: like if I was here, was like flip the commercial.

901
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 5: I'm Wayne Gretzky. She should be impressing me. Hey, here's

902
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 5: my card. That's how I'd write it, That's how I'd

903
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 5: wanted if I was in his shoes. It's not ego,

904
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 5: it's just like matter of fact. But he lets himself

905
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 5: be sold on a far right on TNT on he

906
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 5: should be in the center. I don't understand the guy

907
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 5: and not respecting his own legacy.

908
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.

909
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 1: Maybe just needs the money. Really, I mean I don't

910
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 1: think so. But I mean I don't know.

911
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 5: You played in two of the biggest markets in the States.

912
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 5: You made a mint, and I'm sure all the endorsements

913
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 5: you still make it.

914
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: I will say this though, Yeah, he's better on TNT

915
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: than I thought he would be.

916
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:41,320
Speaker 3: And he's improved.

917
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he's gotten better with time as time's

918
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 5: going on.

919
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. You know what I just thought of, Steve,

920
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 3: I forgot you lived in Nashville.

921
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if you heard what July twenty

922
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 1: fifth at Giodas Park. Okay u Sunderland AFC against Liverpool

923
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 1: Football Club, my favorite team besides the Penguins.

924
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 5: Oh wow, really you Nashville. Well, you let me know

925
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 5: when you're there. I'll get for some good barbe.

926
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:04,840
Speaker 1: Don't expect you're going to go to the game, but

927
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 1: we'll get It's like like Mark Bulger, the old Rams

928
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 1: quarterback from Pittsburgh Central Catholic. He also lives in Nashville,

929
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: so I'll get together with him as well. But like

930
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 1: if I ask him to go to the game, he'll

931
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: say soccer no, and he'll like, f me, you know

932
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: to death.

933
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,080
Speaker 3: Well, my daughter plays soccer. That's her that's her sports.

934
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 5: So we actually do watch a lot of We watched

935
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 5: World Cup and all that stuff. So she's into it.

936
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 5: So I've I've slowly gotten to really appreciate it. Look,

937
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 5: I'm a huge Oasis fan, so you know, I hate

938
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 5: you know what.

939
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 1: I hate Oasis because I think there are a couple

940
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 1: of dorks and I don't like their music.

941
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 3: But they're Man City fans, so I hate them more.

942
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 3: You hate them even more?

943
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 5: Yes, I would I would think that you would appreciate

944
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 5: them because they shoot from the hip and they just

945
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 5: don't care. I think their interviews are as entertaining as

946
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 5: any song that I love.

947
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 1: Oh God, Man City, Sabbi, Blood Money. They win all

948
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 1: those championships.

949
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 5: But I mean, no Gallagher is hilarious. Here's the perfect example, right.

950
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 5: He tells his story. He's he's out being himself, right,

951
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 5: and he goes to this party and this kid comes over.

952
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 3: He's like, hey, I'm gonna band. You inspired him? He's like, oh,

953
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 3: abanu and he's like Maroon five. He's like, Maroon five,

954
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 3: how did you get inspired by anything? I do?

955
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 5: Get the hell away from a piss off. He tells

956
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,600
Speaker 5: his kid to beat it. So he's out drinking. He's

957
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 5: out drinking. He's out drinking.

958
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 3: He's in la. He goes to this mansion.

959
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 5: He's having a great time at this mansion party, right,

960
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,720
Speaker 5: and then he's going to the bathroom and he's knocking

961
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 5: on the door. This guy's taking a while. The door opens.

962
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 5: It's the guy that talked to him earlier. He goes,

963
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 5: he goes, are you still here? And Noel and the

964
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 5: kid comes out. He goes, this is my house. He's like, oh,

965
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:29,799
Speaker 5: great house.

966
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,759

00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 3: I'm Mark Madden. We go.

970
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 1: Jenna Harner, new sports director of Chen eleven. She's just

971
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,919
Speaker 1: around the corner one oh five nine joining me now

972
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: a great on air talent, now the new sports director

973
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:54,400
Speaker 1: Channel eleven. A pleasure to welcome to the program, Jenna Harner. Jenna,

974
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 1: congrats on the appointment. First off, how's the feel to

975
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: be a trailblazer, the first female sports director in Pittsburgh

976
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:01,280
Speaker 1: TV history.

977
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 6: Well, Mark, thank you so much for having me. It's

978
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 6: a pleasure to be here. But it's pretty cool. It

979
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 6: feels pretty surreal and just I think Pittsburgh has been

980
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 6: such a city that you know, has had people who

981
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 6: have been here for their whole lives and they do

982
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 6: incredible work. But to be kind of, you know, the

983
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,919
Speaker 6: first in this position is is pretty remarkable and.

984
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 4: Pretty cool to show.

985
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 6: I guess how far that how far we've come, But

986
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 6: you know, just in all the amazing things that the

987
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:29,400
Speaker 6: city has.

988
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 1: Here on a lighter note. Don't you think Aaron Rodgers

989
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 1: should just go away? Where do you stand on all this?

990
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: It's driving me nuts.

991
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh.

992
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 6: As soon as after his appearance yesterday on the McAfee show,

993
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 6: it's just like, oh, we're doing this again, like we're

994
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 6: fully going into last year in its entirety. So it

995
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 6: kind of felt like a foregone conclusion to me that

996
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:51,520
Speaker 6: he was going to return and to face on all

997
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 6: the conversation that we've been hearing from you know what

998
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,240
Speaker 6: the front office has been saying, what Mike McCarthy's been saying,

999
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 6: what we heard of the combine. But now now it

1000
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 6: seems like it's going to potentially be delayed a little bit.

1001
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 6: Maybe this is a little bit of a game that

1002
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,839
Speaker 6: he's playing. But we're doing it again. Mark, We're right

1003
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 6: back in last year where we're waiting on the big

1004
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 6: decision from Aaron Rodgers as he's coming back, Is he not?

1005
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 4: What's he going to do?

1006
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 1: If you're the Steelers, would you wait for Rogers? And

1007
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 1: what would your plan be be if things don't work out?

1008
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1009
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 6: I feel like you have to have some timeline, And

1010
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 6: I know Omar Khan of the Combine said that they

1011
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,480
Speaker 6: really weren't having this hard timeline in. Rogers echoed those

1012
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 6: comments yesterday on the McAfee show. But to me, I

1013
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:38,400
Speaker 6: feel like you got to have something in place draft time.

1014
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 6: And I'm not saying that they're going to be, you know,

1015
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 6: drafting a quarterback in the first round.

1016
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 4: I actually don't think they're going to be doing that

1017
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 4: at all.

1018
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 6: But you need some foundation of a plan to say, hey,

1019
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 6: are we going to have to go look elsewhere? If

1020
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 6: Rogers decides maybe I'm hanging him up, maybe Minnesota is

1021
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 6: a better option, because again, you can't sit and wait

1022
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 6: around all day.

1023
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 4: And I know that a lot.

1024
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 6: Of people are looking at Will Howard and want to

1025
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 6: see what he has. But I've been saying this for

1026
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 6: a while, and I know a lot of us have.

1027
00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:09,360
Speaker 6: There's a reason Will Howard is a sixth round pick,

1028
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 6: and there's a reason that, you know, Rogers said mcavie

1029
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 6: wasn't this lost year for Howard by any means. But

1030
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 6: I don't see, you know, Will Howard leading this team

1031
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 6: to the playoffs if he's the starter next season. And

1032
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,839
Speaker 6: I don't mean that in a disparaging way, and just

1033
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 6: the reality of it.

1034
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:28,400
Speaker 1: Talking to Jenna Harner, new sports director at Channel eleven.

1035
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:33,760
Speaker 3: Cut signed the minor league deal with Texas. Is that sad? Good?

1036
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 2: Bad?

1037
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 3: What in did the Pirates drop the ball on this one?

1038
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,359
Speaker 4: No, I don't think they did.

1039
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 6: And I know there's a lot of, you know, animosity,

1040
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 6: just in the way of people looking at it and saying, oh, well,

1041
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,839
Speaker 6: you know what he did for the Pirates and all

1042
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,960
Speaker 6: that he's done, and yeah, everything he did was spectacular

1043
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 6: and great. But you look at Ozuna and you look

1044
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 6: at Cutch, and I think there, unfortunately, is a noticeable difference.

1045
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:00,759
Speaker 6: There is a Zuna going to be the guy he

1046
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,280
Speaker 6: was a couple of years ago in the Braves. Maybe

1047
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,840
Speaker 6: not entirely, but I think he's a better option and

1048
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 6: a more versatile option. And I give Cuch credit for,

1049
00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:11,360
Speaker 6: you know, saying, hey, I do want to bet on

1050
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 6: myself a little more. I want to take at least

1051
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 6: another chance to see if I have a shot here.

1052
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 4: But there were some how do I phrase this?

1053
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 6: You could just see the way that Kutch was reacting

1054
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 6: when the Pirates were making these moves and when the

1055
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,879
Speaker 6: initial reports came out that they were going to bring

1056
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,920
Speaker 6: in Azuna, and just I can see why it rubs

1057
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 6: him and some people the wrong way. But at the

1058
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,279
Speaker 6: end of the day, it is just kind of a

1059
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 6: business decision from my take on it, and I think

1060
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 6: that the Pirates are looking to say, hey, look, we

1061
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 6: have to find ways to get better and thank you

1062
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 6: for all that you did. And ben Cheriton said, you know,

1063
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 6: Cutch is always going to be a Pirate. We hope

1064
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 6: he feels the same way, and I do think that's

1065
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 6: the case.

1066
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:49,839
Speaker 4: But I just think the end of the day, it's, hey,

1067
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 4: you got to move on.

1068
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,040
Speaker 6: You got to look for, you know, a better opportunity

1069
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:54,320
Speaker 6: to get better in certain areas.

1070
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 3: Would you start the season with Connor Griffin at shortstop?

1071
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 4: I would not, And I know that that really.

1072
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 3: I'm surprised that you're in the minority.

1073
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 4: I was gonna say it might not be a popular decision.

1074
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:10,640
Speaker 6: But Don Kelly, when he talked not only with Shelby

1075
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 6: Casassi at spring training, but when he's talked with reporters,

1076
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,719
Speaker 6: he said that he's had such he's had such a

1077
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 6: limited experience at that position, and not only that, but

1078
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:24,120
Speaker 6: limited at bats. Not just he hasn't you know, had

1079
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 6: any obviously up in the bigs, but even in Triple

1080
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 6: A I think that this is going to feel a

1081
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 6: little bit to me like the situation where we see

1082
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 6: what we saw with schemes, where he's gonna be in

1083
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 6: triple A for a good majority of the early portion

1084
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 6: of the season, and you know, early June.

1085
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:40,720
Speaker 4: Maybe even late.

1086
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 6: May, he's gonna get called up.

1087
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 3: But I don't know.

1088
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 6: I don't entirely think it's gonna be the best idea

1089
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 6: for his development. Maybe I'm wrong if he continues to

1090
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 6: have this really solid spring, and again I know I'm

1091
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:54,360
Speaker 6: in the minority there, but I think he needs to

1092
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 6: develop him just a little bit more, let him get

1093
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,319
Speaker 6: as comfortable as he can be, and then bring him

1094
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:00,880
Speaker 6: up knowing that he's going to be here for the

1095
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 6: long haul.

1096
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 1: Are the Penguin's legit right now, even with Crosby heart

1097
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 1: and he's not going to be hurt.

1098
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 3: What three more weeks, I guess he'll be back.

1099
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 6: He's skating, which is obviously is I'm sure you know,

1100
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,399
Speaker 6: and you've talked about as a phenomenal thing to see

1101
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 6: him do. And I know that with Sid and the

1102
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,879
Speaker 6: way that he comes back from his injuries, he'll take

1103
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 6: that little extra bit if he feels like he's not

1104
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,319
Speaker 6: as opposed to his best that he can be at.

1105
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 4: But I think with how wide open everything.

1106
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,719
Speaker 6: Is, the Penguins definitely have a shot now if they're

1107
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,879
Speaker 6: a matchup against the Islanders, like it seems like they might,

1108
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,240
Speaker 6: and god, how many times have we seen those series

1109
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 6: in the last handful of years. When they do get

1110
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 6: into the playoffs, I'm going to be a little iffy,

1111
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 6: but I think that with how wide open everything is,

1112
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 6: there is a really good chance for them to at

1113
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:51,239
Speaker 6: least I should say they're ceiling. To me, seems like

1114
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:54,640
Speaker 6: they have a shot at winning a playoff series if

1115
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:55,880
Speaker 6: they get the right matchup.

1116
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,280
Speaker 4: And I don't know if the Islanders.

1117
00:49:57,800 --> 00:49:59,720
Speaker 6: Are the right matchup, but as long as they continue

1118
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:02,719
Speaker 6: to stay consistent and I know obviously the offense wasn't

1119
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 6: there for them or Tuesday Monday night whatever we're on

1120
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,600
Speaker 6: against the Bruins, but I mean, they have the goaltending

1121
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,879
Speaker 6: that's been playing really, really well. Your defense has been,

1122
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,719
Speaker 6: you know, elevated, and I just love what we've seen

1123
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,759
Speaker 6: kind of from this team as a whole, and I

1124
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:18,840
Speaker 6: think it was very unexpected. Tonight's going to be a

1125
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 6: big game for me, though, I'm really intrigued to see

1126
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 6: how they play this Buffalo Sabers scene that's been playing

1127
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:23,959
Speaker 6: really well.

1128
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,840
Speaker 1: You mentioned that Shelby Cassi is at Pirate Spring training.

1129
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 1: She's been hired full time now by Channel eleven. I

1130
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,120
Speaker 1: know you think she's a talent, just like I think.

1131
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,880
Speaker 6: Yes, she is not only one of the most talented

1132
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 6: and hard working people that I have ever ever been around,

1133
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 6: but she is also a great friend. And I'm so

1134
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,520
Speaker 6: lucky to get to call her that both in and

1135
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,400
Speaker 6: out of work, and she is somebody that makes me

1136
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 6: so much better on a daily basis and just pushes me.

1137
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,560
Speaker 6: And I love all that we do in the sports department.

1138
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,279
Speaker 6: I know it's gonna sound kind of corny and.

1139
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:58,680
Speaker 4: Made me a little cliche, but just the way that.

1140
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:02,360
Speaker 6: The stories that she finds and that we get to tell,

1141
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,960
Speaker 6: and the way that we worked so well together, you know,

1142
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 6: I just I feel like we've elevated so much in

1143
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 6: this sports department, and it's such an honor to get

1144
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 6: to work alongside her every single day and to get

1145
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 6: to be part of a team with her.

1146
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:15,080
Speaker 4: She's phenomenal.

1147
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: I agree with all of the above, Jenna, and again,

1148
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 1: congratulations to you, Congratulations to Shelby and we'll talk again soon.

1149
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:21,320
Speaker 2: I hope.

1150
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 4: Thanks so much for having me Mark really appreciate it.

1151
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 4: We'll talk soon.

1152
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: That's Jenna Harner, new sports director at Channel eleven TV,

1153
