Speaker 2: There's no wood close by for me to knock on.

3
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 3: I have not been burnered on Facebook Marketplace, and I

4
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 3: don't know why, but I have not. But also I

5
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 3: love to see the terrible pictures that people take when

6
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 3: they are posting something.

7
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: Sometimes there's feet in the picture. Sometimes.

8
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 3: I like particularly to see the challenge of people figuring

9
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 3: out how they're going to take a picture of a

10
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 3: mirror that they'd like to post, and they're just.

11
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: Like, I can't figure out where to a minute but myself.

12
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 2: And also, there is a picture of my foot. Make

13
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:51,720

00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 2: I don't love.

Speaker 3: What is the weirdest thing that you've bought on Facebook Marketplace?

21
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: Have you bought anything weird? Yeah?

22
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 5: I bought a.

23
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 4: Metal chalice because I made a fantasy football trophy and

24
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 4: I met a guy behind Busy Beaver in Lawrenceville and

25
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 4: gave him seven bucks seven.

26
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 3: Did the chalice have a story? Was he like this

27
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 3: has been in my family for decades.

28
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 5: No.

29
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 2: I wanted him to be like it was my grams,

30
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 2: but it wasn't. He was just like, here's your thing.

31
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 5: You have the seven bucks.

32
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: Don't never call me a kid. Yeah. I got a

33
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 2: juicer like a jack Uelane juicer for fifteen bucks. It's

34
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 2: pretty Jackelane. Yeah.

35
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: I've been in a parking lot at waterworks. It was

36
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 3: great and it was again, haven't been burned yet. Nice

37
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 3: lady put it in an Aldie bag for me. The

38
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 3: pieces were there very nicely cleaned.

39
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 6: That oral good before he used it again.

40
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 3: Right now, you scrub it because you know, listen, she

41
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 3: seemed like a nice lady.

42
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 2: But I don't know the body parts didn't go through that.

43
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 6: You don't know what she's juicing.

44
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: We don't know what she likes to juice human meat,

45
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 2: just a little bit.

46
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 6: I have not purchased on Facebook. I've sold on Facebook Marketplace,

47
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 6: and by sold, I mean put a couch I didn't

48
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 6: want and said, first one who gets here gets it,

49
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 6: and then I had a problem solved. But I saw

50
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 6: one going around and it was one of the mirror

51
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 6: pictures and the dude did not know that his hole

52
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 6: junk was in the phone hole junk in reflected in

53
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 6: the mirror, which begs the question, why was that the

54
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 6: moment when you took the picture? Yeah, like, you get

55
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 6: out of the shower and you better take that picture

56
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 6: for Facebook? Can I put pants on first?

57
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: No?

58
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 6: Right now?

59
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 3: He just like caught himself in the mirror, and he

60
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 3: was just like, Oh, that mirror's gotta go. Instead of

61
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 3: thinking I need to change my life because I'm.

62
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 6: Disgusting, That'll be better if I didn't see it anymore.

63
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. I hope the mirror was a deal.

64
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 3: It is the DVE Morning Show. Randy is off today,

Speaker 3: Basementsystems dot com. Very warm today with times of clouds

81
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 3: and sun. It is high of seventy. A Pittsburgh area

82
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 3: hookah lounge was ordered closed after numerous health code violations

83
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 3: were found during a recent inspection. The Alleghany County Health

84
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 3: Department has issued a closure notice for the Paradise Island

85
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 3: Hookah Lounge in Ducane Plaza in Ducane. According to the

86
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 3: inspection report, a pan of spoiled raw chicken was discovered.

87
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 2: The chicken quote.

88
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 3: Has a strong odor and is slimy and discolored. Additionally,

89
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 3: dog feces found on the floor under a swing in

90
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 3: the swing bar room. So this hookah lounge has a

91
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 3: lot of features. As the inspection report noted, dogs are

92
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 3: not allowed in foods facilities or hookah bar.

93
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 4: That is really gross. I didn't think it could get worse.

94
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 4: After the chicken.

95
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: No, I was done.

96
00:04:54,320 --> 00:05:00,559
Speaker 3: After the chicken, the restroom was deemed not fully functional either.

97
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 2: Oh listen, you can't have it all.

98
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,359
Speaker 3: No lounge requires two restrooms. A closed placard is posted

99
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 3: at the establishment when an imminent health hazard is identified

100
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 3: at a restaurant or kitchen, or if it has been

101
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 3: operating without proper permits. It's unlawful to operate a food

102
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,799
Speaker 3: facility with a closed placard. So my misunderstanding. A hookah lounge,

103
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 3: in my mind's eye, is where you're hookah ing.

104
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 6: It's been a long time, but I did enjoy those

105
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 6: in my youth. You know, the years where you want

106
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 6: to go somewhere but you can't go to a bar yet.

107
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 6: That was key. Yeah, you're a hookaha eighteen to twenty one,

108
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 6: and how don't you went in? You sat on the floor,

109
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 6: they brought you a hookah, You talk to your friends

110
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 6: and past the Sometimes they'd have like hummus. You could

111
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 6: get like a little side, yes, but chicken and swings

112
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 6: and dog feces were not part of the experience that

113
00:05:59,520 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 6: I recall.

114
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 2: I don't remember the dog feces.

115
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 4: Just standard hookah bar fair, come in, bring your dog,

116
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 4: get some chicken, sit on a swing like you're in

117
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 4: a music video.

118
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 3: I remember thinking the hookah bar was a good idea.

119
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 3: At one point, I think I did utilize that idea

120
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 3: for a date. But then I realized that when you're

121
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 3: at a hookah bar, you're just sitting down and smoking

122
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: like two packs of reds. So if you're not a

123
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 3: smoker in that capacity, you are just destroying yourself for

124
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 3: a night, just absolutely annihilating every cell in your body.

125
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 2: Like Alice in Wonderland. I'm gonna try this one, sandal

126
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: would I'll try this one? Yeah?

127
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 4: Some of them are pretty harsh sounding on like the

128
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 4: menu because it's got ninety flavors.

129
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 7: Yeah.

130
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 6: Right, I'm trying to work out. You said Paradise Island,

131
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 6: and I thought Neville Washington's landing. Yes, is it no Duqueane? Yeah,

132
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 6: not an island far from Paradise. This is a branding.

133
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 2: Issue, all right. We talked about this story a lot.

134
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: Yesterday Tim Ben's and west Uller were in the studio

135
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 3: with me and we were talking about Dak Prescott and

136
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 3: Sarah Jane Ramos have informed now their wedding guest that

137
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 3: their ceremony is officially off. Did you guys catch the story?

138
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: I did not, Okay, So Dak Prescott and Sarah Jane.

139
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 3: They've been together for a long time. They have two

140
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: children together, and this past weekend they had a Jack

141
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: and Jill bachelorette bachelor party, which I didn't know that

142
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 3: that was actually a term until Tim brought it up yesterday,

143
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 3: so I guess that's a thing you can do. They

144
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 3: went to the Bahamas, had all of their friends come down,

145
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 3: and they do a joint bachelor bachelorette party. It does

146
00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 3: not go well to the point that they call off

147
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 3: the wedding after this party. Now, it sounds like there

148
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 3: were clearly problems that were leading up to that, but

149
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 3: that was the straw that broke the camel's back. So

150
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: because of that, now they've informed the wedding guest that

151
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 3: the ceremony is off. TMZ Sports obtained the email that

152
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 3: was sent to all of the guests apologizing for what

153
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 3: is being called the last minute cancelation, and it just says,

154
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 3: it is with heavy hearts that we privately inform our

155
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 3: attendees that we have made the very difficult decision to

156
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 3: cancel our wedding. We peopily apologize for any inconvenience they

157
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 3: may cause you, and we welcome your prayers.

158
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 6: A lot of hope in the word privately in.

159
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 3: That statement, Yeah, it's so private. The TMZ had a

160
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 3: copy of it. That note went to two hundred and

161
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 3: fifty people who were slated to attend their destination wedding,

162
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 3: which was supposed to be in Lake Cuomo in Italy

163
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 3: on April the tenth. So with that, there was a

164
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 3: lot of speculation as to why you know that happened.

165
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,719
Speaker 3: One of the stories going along was that there was

166
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 3: an argument about a prenup and TMZ kind of squashed

167
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 3: that story, saying that they had reached out to a

168
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 3: bunch of sources and saying that was not it.

169
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 6: Uh.

170
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 3: One of the things that we talked about and when

171
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 3: we were throwing around in the room is this concept

172
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 3: of not being able to have your spouse or your

173
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 3: partner out of your site for a bachelor or a

174
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 3: bachelorette party, and that.

175
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 2: Indicating some issues set in the tempo for not a

176
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 2: great one.

177
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, somebody banged somebody and the word got out. No,

178
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 6: it's if they hadn't had this elaborate Jack and Jill

179
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 6: bachelor and bachelorette party. This is a non story. Now

180
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 6: they call off the wedding, I'm sure it makes the news,

181
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 6: but no one's speculating. I hate things happen. It's a listen.

182
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 6: I got married two years ago. We never had any problems,

183
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 6: but just the process of planning a wedding for six months.

184
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 6: I wish had on the verge of saying no more

185
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 6: wedding every day costs how much to rent table? Clause

186
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 6: we're doing it?

187
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're fine.

188
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,079
Speaker 6: As we are. You would speculate that. But because there

189
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 6: was a giant party on an island, a paradise, isl

190
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 6: you're you're inviting, You're inviting the speculation.

191
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot.

192
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 3: I mean, the only thing worse than uh, planning a

193
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 3: wedding might be the cringe factor of being at a

194
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 3: wedding when you know it's.

195
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: Going wrong for the bride and the groom.

196
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 3: There was a Reddit thread that I stumbled upon the

197
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 3: kind of I wanted to link to this story that

198
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 3: loves what is a wedding moment that screamed they.

199
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 2: Are not going to last long.

200
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 3: So a couple of responses that I saw in here

201
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 3: when the bride's parents speech included the note about the groom,

202
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 3: you weren't who we envisioned for our daughter, But you

203
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 3: have children together.

204
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 6: That didn't get better after the butt.

205
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 4: We are forever linked no matter what. This is simply

206
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 4: signatures on a piece of paper. Brad, welcome to the fold.

207
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 2: It's going to get worse.

208
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: The groom's mom kissed the groom on the lips for

209
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 3: a while while the bride stood next to them awkwardly.

210
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 2: And it was not a religious tradition.

211
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 4: What's weird about that? Sorry, that's not funny. That is real, gross,

212
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 4: very strange, very close family.

213
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 2: Let's see.

214
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 3: I'm a wedding photographer, and I'd say the intensity that

215
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 3: a bride and groom shove cake in each other's faces

216
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 3: correlates to how.

217
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 2: Long I think they'll last. Did you do that? Wait,

218
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 2: you didn't do that at your wedding? Did you guys

219
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 2: smash cake in each other's face?

220
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 6: Maybe a drop? Maybe like a little bit, like and

221
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 6: that was it because the day isn't over yet and

222
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 6: I don't want sugar on my face.

223
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, you had a long way to go.

224
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 3: You no, no, no, no, I feel like that.

225
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 2: You have to discuss that and.

226
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: Also like the relationship, like that has to be a

227
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 3: tone between the two of you. You have to either

228
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 3: be like hyper competitive and everybody would know that that's

229
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 3: kind of the vibe.

230
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 2: Obviously, we did not do that because I.

231
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 3: Think I I think we knew each other well enough,

232
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 3: but like you know, you have to love that look

233
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 3: at each other. I'd be like, you see how I

234
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 3: am dressed. This makeup is salapped on my face.

235
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 2: So even if you.

236
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 3: Have an inkling that you can get away with that,

237
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 3: I am prepared, but don't do it.

238
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 4: I will go nuclear right now, I will destroy I

239
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 4: will make a mockery of this VFW right now.

240
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,359
Speaker 3: The groom got super drunk to the point of passing out.

241
00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 4: I've been to some weddings where you know, the groom

242
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 4: is the drunkest guy. Yeah, it's not good. It's not

243
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 4: a good it's not a good look.

244
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

245
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 4: I was gonna ask you, guys, if you've ever been

246
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 4: to a wedding where you're like, ooh, this is uh

247
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 4: who this is gonna be this is gonna be tough.

248
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 3: Yes, I've watched the bride and groom fight at the

249
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 3: ted table and and being you know, the the our

250
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 3: table of friends watching them fight the whole time, Like

251
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 3: could not get enough of it at the time, Like

252
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 3: could just.

253
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 2: Every conversation was obsessed with. But then like also there's

254
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:43,959
Speaker 2: a level of carrier like should we.

255
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 8: Do something like should the ladies at the table like

256
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 8: should we go talk to the bride and be like, hey,

257
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 8: whatever it is, let it go tonight, or should we

258
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 8: be like should we all run?

259
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 3: Like should we all should we grab you? And should

260
00:13:59,280 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 3: we all leave?

261
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,959
Speaker 6: You know we're within the annulment? Wouldn't do right?

262
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 2: It's still not too late. I've had six rum and diets.

263
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 4: I think it's I don't know, it's sort of my

264
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 4: obligation to get involved in this.

265
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 2: I can help somehow, somehow.

266
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 3: I mean, what you have something that comes to mind

267
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 3: when you think about that, when you're just like this

268
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 3: is not good, because I feel like in some ways,

269
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 3: like if you're invited to the wedding, you've had some

270
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 3: indication along the way it probably wasn't going to be good.

271
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 6: How's it one where you know, you know the dollar dance,

272
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 6: which which is kind of an alarming.

273
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 2: Is that like a Polish thing?

274
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 3: Because I used to do that a lot whenever I

275
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 3: was like a little kid going to weddings and like

276
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 3: I have an adult holding me, like while we were

277
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 3: doing the dollar dance.

278
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 6: You get to dance with the bride, but you have

279
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 6: to pay. It's it's it's.

280
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 3: A little dowry, little villagy. I you know, we also

281
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 3: get a go toady for something like that.

282
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 6: Back to the bachelor party, I got paid to dance before.

283
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 6: But no, I just had the impression that like they

284
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 6: needed the money. Like like it's like like the ants

285
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 6: and the nanos were going around the room like, no,

286
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 6: you can get money.

287
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 5: You have to.

288
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 6: They need they need some, So get get in line

289
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 6: for the not a twenty, you need to have two twenty.

290
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 6: And it's like I think they are already experiencing the

291
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 6: financial problems that will doom their marriage. Here at their marriage.

292
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I want you to kick up or you

293
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 4: get a kick up at least twenty bucks.

294
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 6: Yeah.

295
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not good. It's not a good. I was.

296
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 4: I was at a wedding and uh, just the groom

297
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 4: was was pretty in the in the bag he was yeah,

298
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 4: he was pretty.

299
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 2: He was feeling pretty good.

300
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 4: And it was also, uh, it was one of those

301
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 4: weddings where like the bridal party represented like a fourth

302
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 4: of the people twenty six people, okay, thirteen and thirteen

303
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 4: on each side down the aisles of the church.

304
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a lot. That is that is I

305
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 2: just I don't know.

306
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 3: I mean, have you ever seen anything go wrong like

307
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 3: technically at the wedding, like a unity candle that won't light,

308
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 3: like something that forebode like some kind of phantom of

309
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 3: the opera level, like oh no, something in the rafters.

310
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 6: I definitely saw them almost lose the bride on the

311
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 6: lifting the chair thing. It was one of those It

312
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 6: was where they they're like, everyone's got to let and

313
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 6: they're doing that and and and she held on, but

314
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 6: there was a moment where I thought they're about to

315
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 6: throw this woman to paralysis on this hard dance floor.

316
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 3: I like the entering the reception to November Rain, which,

317
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 3: if anybody was obsessed with that video, not a good song.

318
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 4: But they're in the desert slashes taking the solo outside

319
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 4: of like a chapel in the desert.

320
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but when they come back in the video, the

321
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 2: bride is dead. Really yes, Yeah.

322
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 3: Because at the beginning of the video, Axel's like, you know,

323
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 3: they're they're getting married and everything, and then there's a.

324
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 2: You know, they're in the church and everything.

325
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 3: But then when they come back in and then the

326
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 3: music's like, you know, the full symphony's coming in. She's

327
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 3: in a coffin and Axel is mourning her. I've never

328
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 3: really followed the video because I couldn't tell if like

329
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 3: it rained at the wedding, and then somebody dove on

330
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,120
Speaker 3: a table, and it's just like did she die at

331
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 3: the wedding?

332
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:39,719
Speaker 2: Like did somebody trip? Like what happened at the wedding?

333
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 6: Then all of a sudden you have now thought about

334
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 6: it more than guns and roses?

335
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 3: Did I think I did? It's like do we have

336
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 3: a bad cake? Did they go to the hook a

337
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 3: lounge and have.

338
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 2: Like dog and chicken? Dog Pecey's and chicken?

339
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 4: What the concerning thing for Dak Prescott and his ex

340
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 4: fiance maybe is to close a statement with we welcome

341
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 4: your prayers at this time.

342
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: It's like, how bad is it? We need God to intervene?

343
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 2: That's how bad it is.

344
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 3: It's a it's a disarming comment because like, now, how

345
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 3: mean can you be to me?

346
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 2: I've asked for your prayers? What do you get?

347
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 6: What are you gonna?

348
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 4: You're gonna come at me over your over the money

349
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 4: for your flight, you scumbag?

350
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 2: My relationships in the toilet.

351
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 5: Now.

352
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 3: You know what I think I'm gonna do is any

353
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 3: time that I've done something that is question asked.

354
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 5: For your prayer.

355
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: That's a great idea.

356
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 3: This is the best hack I think I've ever heard.

357
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 3: The next time, yeah, I just do something that just

358
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 3: like cannot be defended at this point. I'm just gonna

359
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 3: be like, yeah, I understand that I asked for your

360
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 3: prayers at this time, and then just like I'm gonna

361
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 3: put all the onus on you pass that book.

362
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 4: I regret to inform you now. A day later I

363
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 4: was unable to meet you at Grove City to sell

364
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 4: you a filthy mirror from Facebook marketplace. I welcome your

365
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,160

Speaker 9: From Mike Pursuit of Ford DV Sports, brought to this

387
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 9: hour by Bridgeville Appliance. This being the seven thirty sports cast,

388
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 9: let's kick things off as we always do it. Seven

389
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 9: thirty with Mike Pursuit has three takes that resonate number

390
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,439
Speaker 9: one and then number two. Chuck Lowell was a Hall

391
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 9: of Fame coach for a multitude of reasons, but one

392
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 9: of them wasn't because of the attention he paid to

393
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 9: special teams, and the Steelers' special teams periodically disappointed even

394
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 9: as Super Bowls were being won. When Noel finally got

395
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 9: around the hiring a special teams coach. The Steelers were

396
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 9: either the last or one of the final NFL teams

397
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 9: to do so. Legend has it that no justified finally

398
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 9: making the move by admitting, quote, if you hit a

399
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 9: donkey in the head with a two by four enough times,

400
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 9: eventually he'll get it.

401
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 6: Or die one of the two.

402
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 9: The wide receivers room has had too many donkeys and

403
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 9: not enough wide receivers in recent seasons. Welcome to Pittsburgh,

404
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 9: Michael Pittman, Junior. The personnel department apparently has finally been

405
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 9: hit in the head enough times for the light to

406
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 9: go on.

407
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 6: Number two Dean's list.

408
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,360
Speaker 9: Jamal Dean is a very good NFL cornerback, not an

409
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 9: all pro, but an upgrade. The same can be said

410
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 9: for running back rico'dowell, although he's technically replacing team MVP

411
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 9: Kenneth Gainwell. These are the type of acquisitions that would

412
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 9: be worthy of headlines had the Steelers not been so

413
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 9: wide receiver starved in recent seasons. But this just then

414
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,160
Speaker 9: they have been, so if you're so inclined, do backflips

415
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 9: in honor of Pittman initial There should be enough love

416
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 9: to go around for Dean and Dowdell eventually, and they'll

417
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 9: be worthy of such a response. But the headline today

418
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 9: remains Steeler Nation's long national nightmare is finally over. Number

419
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 9: three one one frustrating moment. Robert morris dream of reaching

420
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 9: a second consecutive evn C double A tournament died hard

421
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 9: last night in Indianapolis, seventy to sixty four at the

422
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 9: hands of Detroit Mercy in the Horizon League Tournament semi finals.

423
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 9: There's a reason they cut down the nets after such events.

424
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 9: It's because they're incredibly difficult to win. The silver lining

425
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 9: for the Colonials is this season's near miss might mean

426
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 9: head coach Andy Toole won't get poached by a big

427
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 9: school with big money to spend, and maybe, just maybe,

428
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,199
Speaker 9: more than one player will return to RMU next season

429
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 9: along with tool.

430
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 6: Hey, they can dream, can't They?

431
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 2: Sure?

432
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 6: I want to hit the donkey in the.

433
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 9: Head one more time about this don again receivers thing.

434
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 9: When the Steelers lost to the Houston Texans in the

435
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 9: postseason this past season thirty to six, they started Ben

436
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 9: Scarronic and DK Metcalf at wide receiver. They also threw

437
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 9: passes to wide receivers Marquez Baldez, Scantling, Calvin Austin third,

438
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 9: and Adam Thielen when the Steelers lost in the first

439
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 9: round of the playoffs. At the conclusion of the twenty

440
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 9: twenty four season. Down in Baltimore twenty eight to fourteen,

441
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 9: the start is at wide receiver were George Pickens, Austin,

442
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 9: and Van Jefferson. They also had a wide receiver that

443
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 9: they attempted to have catch passes named Mike Williams.

444
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 4: Man Mike Williams bringing that up, there's a very forgetable list.

445
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,959
Speaker 4: It's going to be extremely funny in five to ten

446
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 4: years when it's like, remember Marquez Voudez, Remember him?

447
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 9: Remember Cleveland when he ran the wrong route at the

448
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 9: goal line on third down and the ball just went

449
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 9: into the end zone.

450
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 2: Threw it to him four times in a row.

451
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 9: Michael Pittman junior sixty four to two hundred and thirty

452
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 9: three pounds, formerly the Indianapolis Colts, reportedly a swap of

453
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,400
Speaker 9: late round picks brings Pittman to Pittsburgh and he reportedly

454
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 9: gets a three year, fifty nine million dollar contract.

455
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 2: Do you hear the McAfee reaction to that?

456
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 9: I did not.

457
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 2: Can you stand it? If I played sure.

458
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 6: Sorry, sorry drinking news.

459
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 10: Oh no culture trade.

Speaker 2: It's in his name.

463
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 11: He'll die, will play in the game weekend.

464
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 10: Colt's lost him.

465
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 6: Now I'm little bomb.

470
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 11: through and through for this Indianapolis Colts team. There's a

471
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 11: lot of rumors coming out about the way the culture

472
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 11: was behind the scenes. People late the things, people doing this,

473
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 11: people making business decisions.

474
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 2: Not this guy.

475
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 11: This guy would dive head first into a freight train

476
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 11: if he had to to make a catch or first

477
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 11: down for a team. We are very grateful for what

478
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 11: he did for the Colts and heading to Pittsburgh seems

479
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 11: like it's on the up and up. Mike McCarthy's gonna

480
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 11: love this guy, and so are the injuries. He's a farmer,

481
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 11: he doesn't talk much, and he balls.

482
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 6: He's got that reputation.

483
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, is Pittman the guy that was killed by de

484
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 4: Monte Casey like three years ago, remember that.

485
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 2: Spending.

486
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 9: Now that you bring it up, I can't remember who

487
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 9: it was.

488
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 2: One of the coltswide receivers was murdered by Caz.

489
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 9: Apparently he got better.

490
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess it was. If it was Bittman his back.

491
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 9: No, it's just this had to be done. I mean

492
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 9: it had to be done.

493
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 2: It had to be done last year and the year before.

494
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 9: Yeah, I do the Eddie Murphy, but I really don't

495
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 9: know any lines from that movie.

496
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 2: Oh from track? Yeah, I can't help you with that

497
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:22,719
Speaker 2: too much.

498
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 9: Wasn't he a donkey?

499
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 4: And yeah, sure it doesn't do a whole lot of

500
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 4: donkey stuff though.

501
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 3: It's not Yeah, it's not really a donkey. It's it's

502
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 3: it's Eddie Murphy. So you're you're all right on that one.

503
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 3: But it is a donkey, right, Indeed, it is a donkey.

504
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 6: But his name is donkey.

505
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 2: His name is donkey.

506
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 6: That's what I knew.

507
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 2: That's the most donkey thing that happens.

508
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 9: Hey, you know, Jamel Deane's a really good corner. Ric

509
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 9: o'dowdell is a very good back. Pittman's the guy, and

510
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 9: you know they're not done. They're going to sign some

511
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 9: more people, and they're gonna draft some people and all that.

512
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 9: But nice to see him get in front of this

513
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 9: wide receiver thing for a change.

514
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, and now they don't have to. It's been tough, Mike.

515
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 4: I don't know if you at all follow the mock drafts,

516
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:11,959
Speaker 4: but unfortunately I do. Okay, well, I this makes you

517
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 4: know they got to get in a wide receiver in

518
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 4: the first round. This makes that less necessary. Of course,

519
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 4: my fear as I read these mock drafts is ty

520
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,959
Speaker 4: Simpson the quarterback from Alabama?

521
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 9: Can't imagine? I mean, unless Rogers decides not to come back,

522
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 9: then I think the quarterback thing is a discussion again.

523
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, he has to decide before the draft, or he

524
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 4: has to tell them, maybe not publicly before the draft.

525
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 9: I actually should have said the headline should have been

526
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 9: one of our long national nightmares is over.

527
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 2: And the new nightmare the quarterback.

528
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 6: Right now, it's just irritating again.

529
00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 9: But if Rogers doesn't come back, welcome to my nightmare.

530
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 3: Well yeah too, do you what is what is your

531
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,959
Speaker 3: gut feeling like about Rogers's coming back but before the

532
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 3: draft or is this going up to June fourth?

533
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 9: See, they are so publicly and enthusiastically in Will Howard's

534
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,880
Speaker 9: corner in terms of wanting to develop him, not start him,

535
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 9: but develop him. If you draft another guy, you know,

536
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 9: assuming Rogers is coming back. If if you draft another

537
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,919
Speaker 9: young I know, you have two guys to develop behind

538
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 9: the starter, which is really difficult to do, to the

539
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 9: point of I think it's impossible to do to go

540
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 9: around right.

541
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 3: Without Rogers, and Rogers seems like the kind of person

542
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 3: that wants to be involved in the Will Howard as well,

543
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 3: very much.

544
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 9: So, very much so that everything that I can deduce,

545
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 9: every tea leave, I can read, every comment I can

546
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 9: try to dissect every time I try to add two

547
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 9: and two together, it comes up with four. But that's

548
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 9: in my world, not Aaron Rodgers world.

549
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 3: The only thing that was counterintuitive to it was the appearance.

550
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 2: On McAfee, because he hadn't done that, Because.

551
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 3: He hadn't done that, because he got so quiet and

552
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 3: poised and kind of out of that sort of spotlight

553
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 3: where he was talking and drawing attention to himself. That

554
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 3: was the only thing that was counterintuitive to what he's

555
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 3: been doing in this past year.

556
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 9: He also did that last year before he came here.

557
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 9: That's true and said nothing's for sure, said anything, stop

558
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 9: taking my picture of stop it. Leave me on television

559
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 9: for an hour and a half to ramble about whatever.

560
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 2: Now, you guys are the drama. Pursue me, fawn over me.

561
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 9: What are some other famous donkeys?

562
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 6: Turn into a donkey?

563
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 2: He does?

564
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,719
Speaker 9: And is there an Italian Christmas caromedic?

565
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 4: The Christmas Donkey, the Donkey of the knuck out veto

566
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 4: Corleone after his father was killed.

567
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 3: Man, it's the day for donkeys, you guys. It's also

568
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 3: a day for a bit of baseball talk. We're gonna

569
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,239
Speaker 3: do that with Kevin Gorman coming up here. Pirates and

570
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 3: Steelers beat writer for the trip. We'll talk a little

571
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 3: bit of Paul Skiens. We'll also talk a little bit.

572
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 3: As opening day approaches, the Pirates begin to shrink their

573
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 3: spring training roster.

574
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 2: Kevin Gorman joining us next on the d d Morning Show.

575
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 6: Streaming on all your devices.

576
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,440

00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 6: To DVE, Comedy, sports and the rock you grew up with.

578
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: Save d V as a pre set on a free

579

Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app.

580
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 2: Imagine all that could happen. It is the DV Morning Show.

581
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 3: Randy Bauman is off today, I'm Abby Prisoner, Mike Persuda

582
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 3: in studio Tad Whistle and Sean Collier, and Paul Skens

583
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 3: dominates in his first World Baseball Classics start, and the

584
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 3: Pirates also begin to shrink their spring training roster is

585
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 3: opening day approaches and joining US now Pirates and Steelers

586
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 3: beat writer for it the trip. Please welcome from Brandenton, Florida.

587
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 3: Kevin Gorman, Kevin welcome. I think that we got to

588
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 3: start with Paul Skeens because he handled the pressure in

589
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 3: his first starts, and not like we needed it, but

590
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 3: another chance with Buggos fans, even without his presence at

591
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 3: spring training, to see how dominant he's going to be

592
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 3: this year.

593
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it was electric.

594
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 12: I mean that's Paul Skens has talked and even written

595
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 12: for the Player's Tribuner about how much it means to

596
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 12: him to wear the letters USA across his chest, you know,

597
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 12: as the guy who attended the US Air Force Academy

598
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 12: for two years before transferring to LSU and becoming the

599
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 12: number one overall pick.

600
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 5: And he's certainly pitched like it meant the world to him.

601
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 12: You know, four scoreless innings, one hit, one walk, seven

602
00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 12: strikeouts through sixty pitches, two thirds of them for strikes

603
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 12: and a quarter of them went for whiffs. So I mean,

604
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 12: this is a guy who just he put on a

605
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 12: performance that let everybody know why he was the National

606
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 12: egu Saw Young Award winner and why he intends to

607
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 12: not only repeat that but carry the Pirates to the

608
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 12: playoffs for the first time in a long time.

609
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 9: He apparently is a little more into this than Trek

610
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 9: schoobl the World Baseball classes.

611
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 12: Yeah, I don't think Scooble really, you know, from what

612
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 12: he said, he doesn't know. I think he realized exactly

613
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 12: what it was all about until he was part of it.

614
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 12: And that's a shame, you know, because I think now

615
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 12: he wishes he hadn't made that commitment to the Tigers

616
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 12: to return and stay on schedule. But yeah, I think

617
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 12: people that get involved in this, you know, all of

618
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 12: a sudden, when they're out there playing for you know,

619
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 12: their country as opposed to just a team that selected them.

620
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 5: This is a team that chose them.

621
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 12: For one and then they get to where you know,

622
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 12: their country or in in some cases it's their you know,

623
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 12: their heritage. Not all these people are from the countries

624
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 12: they're playing from, but they have relatives who were, But yeah,

625
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 12: I think probably is in the land of regret right now.

626
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 9: Kevin, I wonder if you've been around Connor Griffin enough.

627
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 9: Is he a guy who if he would start the

628
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 9: season just for the sake argument in the major leagues

629
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 9: and fail, would that destroy him or would that be

630
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 9: something that he would just shake off and go down

631
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 9: to Triple A and then be back sooner rather than later.

632
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 12: Well, you don't have to be around him for very

633
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 12: long like to understand that this kid's built different, and

634
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 12: not just physically but mentally. I think he's been I

635
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 12: think he's been a superstar all of his life. So

636
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 12: none of this is overwhelming to him. The thing Don

637
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 12: Kelly that told me the other day, I asked him

638
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 12: about Connor Griffin and he said, you know, the thing

639
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 12: that he loves about him is that he embraces failure.

640
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 12: You know that this is a kid who understands we're

641
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 12: going to fail at this game and with the failures

642
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 12: come lessons that you learn, and that Connor embraces all

643
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 12: of that. He wants to learn the lessons. He wants

644
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 12: to learn as much as can, as quickly as he can.

645
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 12: So you know, I don't think that's a concern for one.

646
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 12: The other thing that he you know that Don Kelly

647
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 12: talked about, and it wasn't necessarily about Connor Griffin, but

648
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,839
Speaker 12: about all great players. And another player echoed this is that,

649
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,240
Speaker 12: you know, the great players, when they get into a slump,

650
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 12: they figure their way out of that slump faster. You

651
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,280
Speaker 12: know that they don't get down on themselves. They trust

652
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 12: the talent, they trust the work that they've put in.

653
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 12: And I think that's where you know, Connor Griffin may

654
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 12: separate himself from not just you know, your average nineteen

655
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,720
Speaker 12: year old, but from other you know, major league baseball players,

656
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 12: is that this is a guy who adjusts from a

657
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 12: bat to a bat, and who adapts from a.

658
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,919
Speaker 5: Bat to a bat. And I think you know that

659
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:42,760
Speaker 5: that he has had two.

660
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 12: Of his best performances, or two of his most notable

661
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 12: performances against the Yankees and the Red Sox and spring training.

662
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 5: Yes, they're only great for league games.

663
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 12: No, this isn't the same as a major league game

664
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,759
Speaker 12: in a lot of ways, but that the stages has

665
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 12: never shown to be too big for him. You know,

666
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 12: he did this at Fenway South, you know, hitting two

667
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,760
Speaker 12: runs over the replica Monster. He did this at George

668
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 12: Steinbrenner Field going against the Yankees, and I think that

669
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 12: just tells me this is a kid who rises to

670
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 12: the occasion. Now, you know, could he start the season

671
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 12: the Miners for sure? It sounds like the Pirates have

672
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,479
Speaker 12: every intention of doing so unless he just really gives

673
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,359
Speaker 12: them no choice by being so much better than everyone else,

674
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 12: and they.

675
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 5: Say, hey, we have to roll with the kid.

676
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 12: But it looks like they, you know, they're concerned his

677
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 12: long term development, not you know, the first month and

678
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,919
Speaker 12: a half or so of the season when he could

679
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,879
Speaker 12: be facing pretty quality pitching in Triple A. Because that's

680
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 12: what I've been told from people around baseball, is that

681
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 12: you're going to get your best pitching in Triple A

682
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 12: in the month of April, when guys who didn't make

683
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 12: the major league roster, or guys who are rehaving from injuries,

684
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,760
Speaker 12: or guys who are on the cusp of making the majors.

685
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 12: It's the best collection of pitching they're going to have

686
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 12: in the miners the rest of the season.

687
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 9: Have you seen him play enough to be able to

688
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 9: rate him among the Pirates shortstops shortstop candidates as a player,

689
00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 9: I mean.

690
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 12: He's a cut above you don't you don't have to

691
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 12: see him for very long.

692
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 5: Like him.

693
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 12: That's the one thing people in Pittsburgh need to brace

694
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 12: themselves for is this kid. You know, people for around

695
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 12: the term unicorn, and I don't like it because it's

696
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 12: it's supposed to mean you know that you're unique. And

697
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,720
Speaker 12: you know when you start saying there's more than one unicorn,

698
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 12: that it takes away from the unicorns. You know, something

699
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 12: I've never seen in person. Be honest with you, but uh,

700
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 12: but this kid is he's different. You know, he's six

701
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,359
Speaker 12: foo four, two hundred and twenty five pounds. He runs

702
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 12: like a deer, he's got a great arm, he's he's athletic.

703
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 12: The other shortstops they kind of rave about him. They're

704
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 12: kind of like, yeah, you know, this guy can do

705
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 12: things we can't. And you know I've heard you know,

706
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 12: Corey Dickerson, who used to play for the Pirates is

707
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 12: now the first base coach and outfield coach for the

708
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 12: Tampa Bay Rays, and he talked about well, you know,

709
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 12: he compared him to Taylor Walls, the race starting shortstop

710
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 12: who's a phenomenal defender and who without you know, it's

711
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 12: not for injuries, would probably be you know, a multiple

712
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 12: goal glove winner and said, you know he's not a

713
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 12: gas pedal guy, and meaning that he doesn't have to

714
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 12: stop start. He can do it all one motion. It's fluid,

715
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 12: it's effortless to some degree, and it's dynamic to watch.

716
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 12: You know, you saw Bobby Witten make those dynamic plays

717
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 12: a shortstop for Team USA last night. Connor Griffin is

718
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 12: just as athletic and bigger and has the ability to

719
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,839
Speaker 12: make those same types of plays. And we've seen him

720
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 12: make diving stops that we're still a single as an

721
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 12: infield single, but the ball didn't get through, and you know,

722
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 12: maybe the next time Connor Griffin knows that he can

723
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 12: get to that ball and stops it and makes the

724
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 12: throw because he has that awareness that oh okay, I

725
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:32,240
Speaker 12: can get to that ball, I can make that stop,

726
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 12: and I know I can make the throw because he

727
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 12: has the arm.

728
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 5: So yeah, it's it's just different. It's one of those things.

729
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 12: Until you see it, you might not understand when we

730
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 12: keep saying this how over and over about how Connor

731
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 12: Griffin is just a special player, but it is not

732
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 12: one where like just for comparison's sake O'Neil cruise. It's

733
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,439
Speaker 12: six with seven two hundred and forty five pounds. It's

734
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 12: these moonbeam home runs, and we say, this guy's packed

735
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 12: with potential, you know, if he can only realize his potential.

736
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 12: I think people look at Connor Griffin, they're like superstar.

737
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 12: So that's what we're going to have here. We're gonna

738
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 12: have a superstar. And I think what's special for the

739
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 12: Pirates is that they're going to have potentially, you know,

740
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 12: the best pitcher in baseball and and maybe the best

741
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 12: young player in baseball. When Connor Griffin makes his.

742
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 9: Debut, when do you suspect that would be?

743
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean I think it should be opening day personally,

744
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,320
Speaker 12: just just as it's just my opinion.

745
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 9: Any other reason wouldn't be that. But financial.

746
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 12: Well, I mean yeah, there's a reason, and it has

747
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 12: to do with two things. One is that he has

748
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 12: ninety eight played appearance is above high A, so he

749
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 12: has not faced the quality of pitching that you're going

750
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 12: to face, and he hasn't done it on a consistent basis.

751
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 5: He still strikes out quite a bit.

752
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 12: You know, this is not a guy who's a complete

753
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 12: player at the plate just yet that there's going to

754
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,399
Speaker 12: be a learning curve. He's going to hit some home

755
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 12: runs that are majestic, and he's also going to strike

756
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 12: out and walk away shaking his head and leave everyone

757
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 12: else doing the same. The other part of it is,

758
00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 12: you know, his defense is still a work in progress.

759
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 12: This is a who is a natural center fielder and

760
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 12: they put him at shortstop last year and thinking, Okay,

761
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 12: we think he can play this position. Not only if

762
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 12: he played the position, he played about one hundred plus games,

763
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,280
Speaker 12: had three errors in one of minor league gold gloves.

764
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 12: And that's not just for whatever level he's at, that's

765
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 12: for all of the minor leagues. The best shortstop in

766
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 12: the minors. So I think he's you know, proven the

767
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 12: Pirates okay, I can play that position and play at

768
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 12: a high level. They just have to see if he

769
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 12: can play at a major league level. And perhaps some

770
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,439
Speaker 12: time in Triple A would help that. But I don't

771
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 12: think the Pirates have a short stuff who's better than him.

772
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 12: And in fact, you know, I've heard people say that,

773
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,479
Speaker 12: you know that the Pirates are better off with Jared

774
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 12: Triolo at third because that's his natural position. They're better

775
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,320
Speaker 12: off having nicken Zalz being able to play multiple positions

776
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 12: because he can play second, short and third, but he

777
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 12: doesn't really have the you know, the arm or the

778
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 12: range to play short stuff the same way Connor Griffin does.

779
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 12: The guy, the guy who you know who's raved about.

780
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 12: Connor Griffin to me is much or more than anybody

781
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 12: as a league of Williams. He's a guy who isn't

782
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 12: on the forty man roster and might have a chance

783
00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,800
Speaker 12: to be on this team because of his ability to

784
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 12: play short stuff very well defensively.

785
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 6: Good stuff.

786
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 2: Kevin.

787
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 3: You know we didn't get to go to Bradonton this year.

788
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 3: We had a blast for spring training last year. When

789
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,839
Speaker 3: you're down there, is there a must visit that you have,

790
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 3: like a place that you got to stop anytime you're

791
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 3: at spring training?

792
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, you.

793
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 12: Know, to watch the sunset on Holmes Beach on Anna

794
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 12: Marie Island is a real treat and.

795
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 5: I got to do that.

796
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 12: But my favorite place to eat is a place called

797
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 12: Starfish Company. It's on the inlet at Cortes Village and

798
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 12: they quite literally serve you food in a paper box.

799
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,920
Speaker 12: But it's the best seafood I've had down there. It's

800
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 12: just a fantastic nol. You sit on the dock at

801
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 12: a picnic table and eat out of a paper box

802
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 12: and it's it's fantastic. So that's that's my go to spot.

803
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 12: I hit it a couple of times. I'm actually driving

804
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 12: out of Bradenton, you know today and heading home, so

805
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 12: I got a good sixteen hour drive ahead of me.

806
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 12: But but yeah, that that that was one of the treats.

807
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 12: But you know, just I tell people, you know, I said, listen,

808
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 12: you work every day for a month when I'm down

809
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,399
Speaker 12: there for a month, I work every single day. I said,

810
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 12: but you know, you get sunshine, seafood and baseball. What

811
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 12: more can you ask for?

812
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 2: Oh, that's good stuff, Kevin. We'll have a safe drive man.

813
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 2: That is, that's a long haul man.

814
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 6: You've given me.

815
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 9: Plus Kevin, if Connor Griffin is striking out too much,

816
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 9: because we can't have that on the Pirates, I mean,

817
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 9: maybe you should say.

818
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,880
