It was yesterday, 195 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: but before we touched me that, I just want to 196 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: say congratulations, Happy Nutting Day to you guys. Bob Nutting 197 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 2: spent some money. Yeah, pretty impressive stuff. You guys have 198 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 2: to be pretty happy about. 199 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 3: That, I mean ecstatic, But of course we immediately were skeptical, 200 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. It's like dad stopped yelling 201 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 3: at us. What's you know, what's lurking around the corner. 202 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 3: We don't know how to react. It's never happened to 203 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 3: us before. 204 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I mean, I guess your thoughts 205 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 2: have to go to like the lockout potentially next year. 206 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 2: But this is a it's a great move because signing 207 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: players the contracts right now before the lockout is that's 208 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 2: actually a very a very smart thing to do. From 209 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 2: like a payroll perspective, you have to assume that once 210 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 2: they get a new CBA in place, every contract should 211 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 2: be more expensive. Yeah, so I now, great move, good 212 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 2: job pirate. 213 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, these get grandfathered in. So I mean, I'm excited 214 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 3: about it. Watching the Buckos every night now and having 215 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 3: some hope and feeling like there's actually, you know, something 216 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 3: to root for is such a foreign feeling. And I 217 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 3: know you dealt that with that with your football team 218 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 3: for a long time. 219 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's a strange place to be. You're gonna 220 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 2: have a lot of people being like, act like you've 221 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 2: been there before. You can't do that because you haven't. 222 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: So congratulations. I hope that this is a sort of 223 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: a new era for you guys. Now, is there a reason, 224 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: like what change with Bob Bedding? Why does he spend money? 225 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 10: Now? 226 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 3: I think you just answered your own. We're all trying 227 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 3: to figure that part out. We're like, you know, is 228 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 3: he going to sell the team? Did he just up 229 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: the valuation to move the team somewhere else? What is 230 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 3: the real motivation here? Because it can't just be good 231 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 3: business sense. But Jeff, you had a. 232 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 8: PFD, You're let me take you through a hypothetical here. 233 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 8: You're nineteen years old and you're now possess in theory 234 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 8: one hundred million dollars. 235 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: What happens next? 236 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 8: What do you buy at nineteen now that money is 237 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 8: not an issue? How do you keep it under how 238 00:10:58,720 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 8: do you keep it under control? 239 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? Nothing constructive. I don't buy anything constructive. Uh, it's 240 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 2: it has a recipe for disaster. If you were to 241 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 2: give me that much money at such a young age. 242 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: I think it's probably gonna be a little bit different 243 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: with Connor, but it's for me. If I was a 244 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: Pirates fan, I would be like, it'd be like your 245 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: your husband coming home and just bringing you flowers for 246 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 2: absolutely no reason, Like what what does this mean? What 247 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: did you do? 248 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 3: You know? 249 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 2: So? Yeah, I mean it's it's exciting for you guys. 250 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 2: I hope that this is the start of a new trend, 251 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 2: that the Pirates are now going to spend money and 252 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 2: and keep their own homegrown talent in house and build 253 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 2: something for the future. But I do understand the apprehension 254 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: from your perspective. It's like, this is it's such a 255 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 2: such a break in what they normally do in the 256 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 2: way they do business, that you you have to expect 257 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: if something else is coming, but you know, enjoy it 258 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 2: for to that because we don't we don't have to 259 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 2: be cynical just yet. I always like to see, you know, 260 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 2: the teams that historically have had, you know, die hard 261 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: fan bases that have been disrespected by their ownership. I 262 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 2: like to see those fan bases have some success and 263 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 2: those teams do well. So I'm not gonna say anything. 264 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna raid on the parade. I'm just gonna 265 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 2: say congratulations, And I hope this is a start of 266 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: a new trend for you guys. 267 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 3: So I you know, I don't want to make you 268 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 3: talk about that Recidi thing, because I know you guys 269 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 3: are friends. If you'd rather not talk about it, I 270 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 3: don't want to make you feel. 271 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 2: I mean, it's like the biggest story in sports right now, 272 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: which is kind of crazy, and it's sallacious and you know, 273 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 2: like it checks all the boxes of things that people 274 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 2: want to read about. I am friends with her, so 275 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: it put it definitely put me in Big Cat in 276 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 2: a tough position because we're not white friends with Diana, 277 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 2: but we're also friends with Mike Rabel. And if this 278 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 2: was a story where it's like, you know, two people 279 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: that are are meeting up and you know, having a 280 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 2: secret affair in a hotel, but there's no families involved. 281 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: That would make it easier and more fun for like 282 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 2: joke around about it, but like we know the families 283 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 2: and it's just it would feel weird to like make 284 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 2: fun of them and to pile on, so we we 285 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 2: you know, admittedly, we kind of took the coward's way 286 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 2: out on this morning's part of my take and just 287 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 2: said like, yeah, we're a really bad spot right now, 288 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: and we're not gonna make fun of him.

I don't know if somebody was like staking 302 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: them out or how that went down. But it seems 303 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 2: like also the fact that it took place like two 304 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 2: weeks ago and it's now just coming out, there's like 305 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 2: there's something that's going on behind the scenes.

How 339 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 3: is the league allowing that? 340 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's because they use the kid gloves on 341 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 2: Tom Brady that now they can't they set the precedent. 342 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: So Troy Aigman's like, yeah, I want I want some 343 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 2: of that conflict, and just give me some of that. 344 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 2: And the league is in no position to do anything 345 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 2: at all about it. Nothing really matters anymore when it 346 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 2: comes to ethics. So I don't think that there's the 347 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 2: like you'll get the watchdogs and the people that have 348 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 2: a couple functioning brain cells that are looking at what's 349 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 2: going on saying, hey, this is really best stuff. And 350 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if I can trust anything that Troy 351 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 2: ever says on TV. If he's doing Monday Night Football, 352 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: I can't believe that he's actually delivering like the best 353 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 2: product to the viewer and not just thinking about his 354 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 2: other job with the Dolphins. But none of that really 355 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 2: matters anymore. If people watch when a Night Football and 356 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 2: they watch will Troy's on, Nothing's gonna change, And uh, 357 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 2: that's just kind of that's the world that we're in 358 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: right now. So we can we can try to fight it, 359 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 2: or we can just kind of sit back and just 360 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: be like, yeah, phoebe that slop daddy and just have 361 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: have Gondell keep shoving it down our throats. Because I 362 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 2: don't think anything's gonna change. I don't think that there's 363 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 2: gonna be like unless Troy does something that's like blatantly obvious, 364 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: or Tom Brady's something this this blatantly obvious and blatantly underhanded. 365 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 2: I don't think that candel is going to be motivated 366 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 2: to do anything get upsets the apple cart. Those checks 367 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: are cashing right now. 368 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, nonsports related question for you. 369 00:16:55,440 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 3: Does the current Artemis two mission that is happening going 370 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 3: around the Moon what does that do to the moon 371 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 3: landing deniers. 372 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a tough day for them. Don't find a 373 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 2: way though they always do. They're creative. They'll find like 374 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 2: some artifact of the picture of those doom it and 375 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 2: be like, this is not real. I found that. This 376 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 2: is like NASA forgot to remove the water the Getty 377 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 2: watermark or something like that. 378 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 8: They'll figure out a way. 379 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 2: They're a very resourced launch and honestly, this is like, 380 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 2: this is I think good for them. I think it's 381 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 2: really good for the for the flat earthers, for the 382 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 2: moon landing denialists, because it gives them brand new material 383 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 2: to work with and they get to be creative. They 384 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 2: get to come up with the stories and find new 385 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 2: new slants and conspiracies. So this is like, yeah, this 386 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 2: is a great day for them. They've got a whole 387 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 2: bunch of new source material that they can comb through 388 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 2: and figure out weird, weird stuff.

That's one 501 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 8: of the appeals of the Pirates game is that you 502 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 8: can do that. You can go on Sunday and there 503 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 8: will be tickets available. Like I was said, like the 504 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 8: baseball in this town is like golf. Golf is more 505 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 8: enjoyable the less people you have to contend with to 506 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 8: do it, and baseball is kind of the same way. 507 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 8: Like I don't feel like you get a lot out 508 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 8: of a huge baseball crowd because a lot of times 509 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 8: theres a lot of families run around. You feel okay 510 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 8: with your kids kind of going up in the play place. 511 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 8: If there's you know, forty thousand people there every single time, 512 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 8: maybe that takes away from a little bit of the 513 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 8: appeal of it. Oddly enough, like a in a weird 514 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 8: kind of way. 515 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 6: Well, I think you're certainly more willing to put up 516 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 6: with that. In fact, you probably want that in September, 517 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 6: but maybe not July, you know, if you just want 518 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 6: to go. But I think the game has changed. I 519 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 6: think Pire tickets are going to get harder to come by. 520 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 6: It You're gonna have to advance plan. 521 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll be able to get those Sunday tickets. 522 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 3: You just won't get the seats that are as good 523 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 3: as you want them to be, not for the same price. 524 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 6: But it's uh, this is a fascinating time, Uh, no question. 525 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 3: And like I said, I think one of the fun 526 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 3: things will be if they can keep playing well, keep 527 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 3: winning games, and stay in contention as they get to 528 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 3: the All Star break, you know, if they can keep 529 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: hovering in first second, bouncing up and down there and 530 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 3: then because the National League is not gonna you know, 531 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 3: Central is not gonna set the world on fire. Shouldn't 532 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 3: And all of a sudden, those series start to take 533 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 3: on a whole new vibe when it's like, hey, if 534 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 3: they can take two out of three from the Brewers, 535 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 3: they're gonna be in for. If they can you know, 536 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 3: wipe out the Cubs today, that's gonna knock the Cubs 537 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 3: back another game. All of that stuff starts to play 538 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 3: into what you're paying attention to, which previously none of 539 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 3: that matter because you were in the basement and you 540 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,479 Speaker 3: were like, oh, let's hope Skeens has a good outing today. Oh, 541 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 3: I'm interest to see if Bubba Chandler cannot stink today. 542 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 3: You know, stuff like that and now it's completely different. 543 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: Or I want to go watch Poolholes or somebody from 544 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: the other d yachty air Molina's in town. I can't 545 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 1: wait to see them. 546 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 3: But like I told you, like you know, years ago, 547 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 3: just pissed me off so bad sitting in that crowd 548 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 3: of people and whoever was pitching for the Pirates that 549 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 3: and I can't even remember was about to strike out 550 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 3: the side and two strikes on the batter. Not one 551 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 3: person in the entire stadium is paying attention to that. 552 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,880 Speaker 3: And like now you're gonna people will be on their 553 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 3: you know, just that idea of paying attention to baseball 554 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 3: and Pittsburgh again. Could you not see the excitement in 555 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 3: that home opener crowd. It was electric in there and 556 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,880 Speaker 3: it can be like that for most of the year. 557 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 6: And although they've been doing this the way they've been 558 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 6: doing it for too long now, I don't think they've 559 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 6: lost the hardcore baseball people like baseball is a sleeping giant. 560 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 6: In this sleeping giant that the popularity of it will explode. 561 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: I have friends who have remained positive through all of this. 562 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 11: Yeah, through all of it, they have seen positive rays 563 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 11: of light and only focused their attention on that and 564 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 11: didn't understand why nobody else could. 565 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: See that that kind of piratey. 566 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 8: I'm telling you, like you know, the Penguins are clearly 567 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 8: the town's second team, but if the Pirates get good, 568 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 8: they are third. In a split second. Agree, there is 569 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 8: no doubt about it. Agree, And that's not no offense 570 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 8: to no, no, not at all. 571 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 6: Base basing much more traditional American sport in this market. 572 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 6: Hockey's done very well, and you know it's going to 573 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 6: be an exciting time for them as well, with the 574 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 6: playoffs for the first time in four years and what 575 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 6: that team might be possible of achieving. But people have 576 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 6: been thirsting for meaningful Pirates games. 577 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: Well, Bob Nutting just gave you a drink. 578 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 3: He's going to charge you for it, and it's going 579 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 3: to be forty eight ounces, But still it's available. 580 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: It's available. 581 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 3: Welcome back, nine year extension for Connograph one hundred and 582 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 3: forty million, five million bonus up front.

I still think they get that. 585 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 3: I still feel like the Pirate's got a deal at 586 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 3: one hundred and forty million because he could wait a 587 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 3: couple of years and sign the big one. But I 588 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 3: guess yeah, although I have to tell you they must 589 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 3: have got their act together because I feel like sometimes 590 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 3: these extensions, you know, the Pirates don't have a great 591 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 3: reputation for being in it for the long haul, So 592 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 3: I mean they must have really impressed him with future 593 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 3: plans for him to even consider it, because I don't 594 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 3: care if you. 595 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: Have a lot of money. 596 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,719 Speaker 8: If I'm not going to win, or you're not going 597 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 8: to put anything around me or anything like that, then 598 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 8: I'm not really I don't even know if the money 599 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 8: matters to this guy. 600 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 6: You know, everybody that we've talked to and we've been 601 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 6: talking about seemingly nothing but him since spring training started, right, 602 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 6: different breed of cat, different guy, nineteen going on thirty, married, mature, grounded, 603 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 6: knows who he is and what he wants to do. 604 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 6: And during our chat with Noah Hoiles today, Noah talked 605 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 6: about his perception that Griffin thinks he's been treated really 606 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 6: well by the Pirates, and part of that might be 607 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 6: he just doesn't have anything to compare it to who 608 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 6: would at right age. But you know, if you're happy, 609 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 6: you're happy. 610 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: Right, I don't know. 611 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 8: The Alatuna Curve treated me pretty nice up there. 612 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: If you don't care what. 613 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 6: Other people think about what you like or who you 614 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 6: want to be or what you want to do, that's 615 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 6: the best place to be in the world, right, no question. 616 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 3: I think like what Noah Haile said earlier, you know, 617 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 3: this is the big city to him. 618 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, and the huge the huge payday relative to this one, 619 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 6: which is huge, is still attainable at twenty seven and 620 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 6: twenty eight. 621 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 3: Not to mentionine one hundred and forty in Pittsburgh.

Your network 631 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: has to handle it all. That's where a fiber only 632 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: provider falls short. You need a partner who can concole 633 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: hoist the cone. 634 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 3: Just don't steal the cone, hoist a cone that you buy, 635 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 3: because traffic's already buy a code, you can buy cone, 636 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 3: go to the Cone store, getting down in the Cone 637 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 3: district on Cone Street. 638 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: So what, David Cone. 639 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 3: That's right, traffic's already a mess.

This spur of cone stealing can't be good. 643 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: It doesn't. It can't make anything any worse. 644 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 8: And I'd like to okay, it can't because we're already 645 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 8: horrible drivers in here in Pittsburgh.

Oh I take it all back, it says 674 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 8: veteran Vietnam War. 675 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: Sorry, never mind, come right in. 676 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 8: That is my ode to the guy trying to merge 677 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 8: right before the four pintoms. 678 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 3: Pretty good stuff right there. I am the expert at 679 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 3: making that merge move and I let's hear it. I 680 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 3: will always say to my Uber driver Lyft driver most 681 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 3: actually I always say Uber is like a general you know, 682 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 3: it's like xerox ing something, because I usually use Lyft. 683 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 3: But I'll always say to them, is they're going down 684 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 3: banks fall? Like now, if you'd like, I'll tell you 685 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 3: how to navigate the interchange here, you know, really easily, 686 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 3: because not every Lyft driver or Uber driver knows that intersection, 687 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 3: knows the merged from coming from the south hills into 688 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,959 Speaker 3: that traffic, and a lot of them want to do 689 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 3: the immediate stop and try to get in as soon as. 690 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: You meet the merge point. And that is that's bad 691 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: for everybody, Jeff. It clogs it up. 692 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 8: And here's what you have to do, as someone who 693 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 8: does this a lot. You got to go pick your spot, 694 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 8: but you got to see it four hundred yards like 695 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 8: you got to pick your line. You got to see 696 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 8: an SDS truck four pit truck something like that that 697 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 8: you need to get out of neutral into first gear 698 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 8: and takes them a little bit. Or or you find 699 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 8: a Toyota Yaris or a Prius and you say, there's 700 00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 8: my bitch yep and you go right in front of them, 701 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 8: and that's just what you do, yes, because. 702 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: They don't have the they don't have the zero to 703 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: sixty on those. 704 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 2: Now. 705 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 8: The nice thing about that merge point, though, is even 706 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 8: if you are screwed, it just takes you to the 707 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 8: West End. So it's not like you have to go 708 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 8: like one hundred and forty miles out of your way. 709 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,239 Speaker 8: It's a detour. But you know, even if you have 710 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 8: to hit the eject button, you can still get downtown or. 711 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: Go to the West Endbridge. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. 712 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: I'm thinking. 713 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 3: Okay, the first turn off, which takes you fifty one 714 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 3: saw Mill ru Yeah, you go Union Town. Yeah, okay, 715 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 3: either one of those, there's recovery, but there's a lot 716 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 3: of I'm telling you from the draft, you're gonna have 717 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 3: out of town drivers doing some of what I think 718 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 3: are the most difficult pit stop maneuvering traffic situations that 719 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 3: you're gonna have. It is going to be you better 720 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 3: get the cones back out on the road because there's 721 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 3: gonna be some fender benders from people from Tennessee that 722 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 3: didn't know that a tunnel turns into a one way street. 723 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: Turns into a cul de sac. 724 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 3: Well, I was talking about yesterday my ways app on 725 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 3: Easter morning, row up to Earie to spend the day 726 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 3: with my mom and coming out. 727 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,959 Speaker 1: Of the four pit tunnel and there's no traffic at 728 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: that time when I was leaving it. 729 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 3: It did not know what to do with all of 730 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 3: the options. Like the voice on it immediately started like 731 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 3: breathing into a paper bag, and then the Matthew McConaughey 732 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 3: meme from True Detective of him smoking all nervous, like 733 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 3: wopped up on the screen because like there's two lefts, 734 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 3: there's two straits, and there's two rights, but I don't 735 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 3: know which one unique because each one of those has 736 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 3: a different offshoot. 737 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: And give me a second to figure this out, would you? 738 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 8: Now that's a computer, dude, Yeah, exactly, Like what kind 739 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 8: of non Newtonian physics do you need to navigate?

You think it's going to be so much easier, 750 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 3: but again, if you're going in between those two, it's 751 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 3: it could be a tough call. 752 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 8: The nice thing with Pittsburgh, though, is if you missed 753 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 8: one bridge, there's another one.
