1 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: The Tiger Woods phenomenon is fascinating. He got popped for 2 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:20,959 Speaker 1: DUY number two on Friday, car action number four in 3 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: a couple of those. 4 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 2: He didn't even get. 5 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: Tested for DUI because the cops cut him slack. 6 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 2: As I recall, on Friday, he rolled his car, could. 7 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: Have killed somebody, and yet most people are defending Tiger 8 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 1: like a wolverine. Oh he has a problem, show some compassion, okay, 9 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,160 Speaker 1: but if it was somebody you didn't like, you'd want 10 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: the death penalty. 11 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 2: This is DUI. This is endangering others. Oh, he has 12 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 2: a problem. Why can't you have empathy? 13 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: He has a problem, and that problem is Tiger Woods 14 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: is a scumback and not just this adultery hormongering. 15 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 2: And this is drugs, not booze. Oh it's so tough 16 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: in the spotlight. 17 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, him and his net worth a one point five 18 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: billion real difficult hire a driver if you're pilled up, 19 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: have one on call twenty four to seven. Oh, his 20 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: father pressured him. Okay, back when you made that dink 21 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 1: into a hero for creating Tiger Woods. Oh, but he's 22 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: done so much for golf, right, but a what if 23 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: I don't care about that? And b that doesn't undo 24 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of DUIs. If this was Britney Griner, the 25 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: right wood Wanner in jail again, if this was Kurt Schilling, 26 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: the left would want to gag him with his own 27 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: bloody sock. It's not what's done, but it's who does it. 28 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: And ain't that America? This is the Mark Madden Show. 29 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: You like it, you love it, you want more of it. 30 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: Eight three, three four one two wxdx number to call, 31 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: go ahead calling it. Defend Tiger, but I've blown up 32 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: every single defense you could muster in my monologue. Tiger's 33 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: not a good guy, and you can't give him sympathy 34 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: for that because he's not. After two DUIs and four res, 35 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,839 Speaker 1: he should go to jail. Although Florida law the time 36 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: between the DUIs, it's been almost a decade. He ain't 37 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: gonna go to jail, but you might. 38 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 2: I might. A lot of. 39 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: Normal citizens would two DUIs four car recks, but Tiger won't. 40 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: But Tiger should go to jail, or at least be 41 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: on mayor of Kingston, be in the prison. 42 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 2: There something. 43 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: Anybody who's not a Tiger fan agrees with me, But 44 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: most of America is a Tiger fan. And the weird 45 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: thing about the footprint Tiger left behind in golf is 46 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: it's like everybody is waiting for him to come back, 47 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: and he's not had those severe leg injuries a few 48 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: years ago in that car wreck popped as achilles tendon, 49 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: had back surgery recently to replace a disc. He's not 50 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: coming back unless it's, like, I don't know, a token appearance, 51 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: maybe the Senior Tour because they can use a cart, 52 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: that indoor golf, that thing he's doing, but he ain't 53 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: gonna win the Masters again. And because though he bigfoots 54 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: golf still, however unintentionally on his part, because of that, 55 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: nobody else could be a superstar, not even Scotty Scheffler, 56 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: who's won what is it, three majors the last two 57 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: years for total okay, look, two DUIs and four car res. 58 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: There's simply no logical way to defend Tiger Woods. But 59 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: Barstool's golf guy, and I know they're not journalists, but 60 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: he basically said, we're not gonna mention that we're gonna 61 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: defend Tiger. F you your thoughts on Tiger, but you 62 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: won't want to talk about it because you know I'm right. 63 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna call the eight three to three, four 64 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: one two WXDX. I want to talk about the hockey 65 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: game tonight. It's always the Islanders that it up, Volick Bailey, 66 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 1: Tanelli westfal Chico Resh, Glenn Healy. It's always the Islanders 67 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: that fed up. I hope they don't f it up tonight. 68 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: Maybe they won't. It's not the playoffs. That's when they've 69 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: done the damage to the Penguins. But I'm still nervous, 70 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: especially with Geno out and and Sid. I don't think 71 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 1: Sid's gonna play. Uh, he's a game time decision. I'm 72 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: sure I'd like to play. But Sid, if he has 73 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: any dot airs on the side of not playing. And 74 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: that's not a criticism, that's just the way it's been 75 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: for basically his entire career. And that is why when 76 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: he comes back in the lineup, he stays in the lineup. 77 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 1: But I do not expect him to play tonight. I 78 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: went to the Penguin game Saturday, a very disappointing result 79 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: against Dallas. 80 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 2: Not well. 81 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: Disappointing, but certainly not surprising was sitting Gino out. Penguins 82 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: only got twelve shots. That's like among the all time lows, 83 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: especially at home for the Penguins. Skinner wasn't good in goal. 84 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: The third and fourth goals went right in the center 85 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: of the net. They should have called up Morrishoff. I mean, 86 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 1: I'm tired of saying it. They're probably tired of me 87 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: saying it, but they should have called up Morrishoff. I 88 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: know the plan was to leave him down there all year, 89 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: but when they got in a playoff spot, well that 90 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: went the plan. Back when the plan was to finish 91 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: bottom five and get the corresponding draft pick, get those 92 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: balls in the lottery. But now they are in a 93 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,119 Speaker 1: playoff spot, so the plans have changed, so they should 94 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: have called up Morrishoff. I don't criticize Dupas for a month, 95 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: but they should have called up Morrishoff. But anyway, I 96 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: was at that game against Dallas on Saturday, and I 97 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: find my phone, so I went to the game without 98 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: my phone. 99 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 2: I felt so free. 100 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: It was so liberating to be someplace without having to 101 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: pay attention to something that buzzes every ninety seconds. Well 102 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: not that often because I got no friends, you know that, 103 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: but it felt good to be at that game without 104 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: the phone. I had an easy weekend. I spent the 105 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: weekend watching elite cornhole on TV. You've heard that plug, 106 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: No pun intended up on this radio station. Isn't it 107 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: weird that elite cornholing was sponsored by Falcon Studios. No, 108 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: I didn't watch elite cornholing. I listened to Las calsha 109 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: restas that elite cornhole thing. I mean, come on, you're 110 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: throwing bean bags. There's no such thing as elite throwing 111 00:06:52,640 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: effing bean bags. Meantime, in baseball, Griffin is in Triple 112 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 1: A and he's ripping it up. And that weather hold 113 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: kid from Mars, JJ Weatherholt. We have a crappy infield 114 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: and we need hits now called JJ Weatherholt eight seven 115 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: seven hits now and he is getting hits now for 116 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: the Cardinals U Saint Louis. Same draft here as Griffin. 117 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: Weatherholt had a home run in his first MLB game 118 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: and a walk off hit in a second. He's in 119 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: the majors while Griffin is in Triple A. Sorry, but 120 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: it makes zero sense to me. If somebody can explain 121 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: the difference between Weatherholt and Griffin, weather Holt got drafted earlier. 122 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: He's three years older, but still but still also that 123 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: ABS system for balls and strikes. 124 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: Everybody says how great it works. I'm gonna tell. 125 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: You in just a little bit how it doesn't really 126 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: work like you think. How in some ways it makes 127 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: things worse instead of better. Gonna talk a lot more 128 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: about the NFL Draft later too, coming to Pittsburgh. 129 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 2: Not who the Steelers are gonna pick. I don't care 130 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 2: about that. 131 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: I know with the draft being here, the Steelers are 132 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: gonna pick the wrong guy. 133 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 2: But boy, it's gonna make such a mess. 134 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: And if you're tired of me complaining, I'm tired of 135 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: anticipating how big the mess will be. Then again, have 136 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: you been down town lately? How much more wreck could 137 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: it get? How much worse could it be? But I guarantee, 138 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 1: except for the people making money from it, an art Rooney, 139 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: because it fulfilled daddy's dream. Ain't nobody gonna be glad 140 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: we had the Draft in Pittsburgh. Ain't nobody gonna be 141 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: glad that we had to endure that for three days 142 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: plus Wednesday and Sunday, the bookend days won't be no 143 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: bonus either. Yeah, Dan Rooney's passed away, God bless him. 144 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: We act like somehow he knows the draft was here 145 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: he does not, and if he does, I bet he 146 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: thinks alright. I was like kind of just run in 147 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: my mouth. It's not really a good idea. Dan Rooney 148 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: from beyond the Grave here on one oh five ninety X. 149 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: Big game tonight, biggest game of the year, Penguins at Islanders, 150 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: which will be followed by a game just about his 151 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: big Detroit at Penguins. Johnny Whitehall presumably in goal for Detroit. 152 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: John Gibson in his first year with the Red Wings, 153 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: Gino app Sid a game time decision, shilloffs in goal, 154 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: Avery Hays called up. 155 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 2: And I always hate it when people say next man up. 156 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: Because you got to say that, especially if you're on 157 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: the team or if you're the coach. 158 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: But that doesn't apply. 159 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: You act like it's simple, Well, babe, Bruce Ott, we'll 160 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: put in, you know, Mario Mendoza, next man up. It 161 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: just don't work that way. And you can only overcome 162 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: so much for so long. And I think the Penguins 163 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: are at the point where they've overcome a lot for 164 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: a long time. And if Sid doesn't play tonight, I 165 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: think it's gonna go bad. And who knows about Tomorrow 166 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: night against Detroit you lose these two games, you are 167 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: bang in trouble and the goaltending won't steal the game 168 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: hasn't done it all year, why would it start now. 169 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: So the Penguins there, they're kind of up against it, 170 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: actually not kind of their period up against it. 171 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 2: Uh, Pirates have won one out of three. 172 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: That's a good batting average, but not a good winning percentage. 173 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: And we were talking about that ABS system for balls 174 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: and strikes, the appeal process. Everybody says, I'll go it works, okay, 175 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: So if it works, great, don't make it an appeal. 176 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: Just use ABS on every pitch and get every call 177 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: right and speed things up. Boy, do the umps get 178 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: the red ass when they get overturned. So that's one 179 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: good thing about it. And you don't want to take 180 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: the human element out of the game. Well, by having 181 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: replay and appeal and YadA YadA in every sport, you have. 182 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 2: Taken the human element out of the game. 183 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: And in terms of replacing the umpswall, that's just too bad. 184 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: Humans have been replaced by machines in our society dating 185 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: back to what the seventies, the eighties, and it's gotten 186 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: worse and it's gotten more, and it's put people out 187 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: of work. So it might sound callous to say, but 188 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: why should the umpires be any difference? Yesterday when the 189 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: Pirates bad in the fifth Brian Reynolds struck out and 190 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: two of the strikes weren't strikes. The Pirates didn't challenge, 191 00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: they were already running out of them and letting bad 192 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: calls stand. When you have the means to get it 193 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: right every time, get it right every time, that just 194 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: does not make sense. Then again, there's a lot of 195 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: dumb stuff in sports, dumb everyone's accusing me. And high 196 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: on that list is when baseball players talk behind their gloves. 197 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: You ever see that they're on cameras they talk behind 198 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: their gloves like they're hiding nuclear secrets or lower body 199 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: injuries and hockey, or who's banging the right fielder's wife 200 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: behind his back? Actually, maybe it is that last part, 201 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: like with Dorn in Major League, somebody stole twelve tons 202 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: of kit cats in Europe. I bet it was armor, Yager. 203 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: Let's go to Denny and Rhode Island. Denny your own 204 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: double m. 205 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: Oh hi, mark A love you show a big fan 206 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 3: and I think you're hilarious. But I wanted to talk 207 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 3: about the tens and the playoffs. Just want to say that, 208 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:08,119 Speaker 3: you know, short of the top two teams, Avalanche, the Dallas's, 209 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 3: even the Wild and some others, but mostly the team 210 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 3: is easily in comparable to any of the other teams 211 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 3: they're competing. 212 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 2: With, not with sen Gino on, not with the goaltending. 213 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 2: It's getting. 214 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 3: Well, that's true, I'll give you that. 215 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: But you think you think they could compete with Caroline 216 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: in a playoff series, You think they could compete with 217 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: Tampa or Buffalo in a playoff series. 218 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 2: I don't think so. 219 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 3: No, no, that's what I'm saying. That's my point. But 220 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 3: everybody else they can and you know what, do we expect? 221 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 3: They're not going to win the Stanley Cup? 222 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 2: Right, so everything they do is okay, right? Miss it? 223 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: Make it doesn't matter to you. We love the Penguins, correct, No, no, 224 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: so make makeup points, sir, Make a point please. 225 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 3: They can make a playoffs and do well win a 226 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 3: series maybe two if. 227 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: Like, okay, now, you know, to win two series, they'd 228 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: likely have to beat Carolina or Tampa. 229 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 3: They can beat one one. 230 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: Great, thanks for the call. Four one two three excuse 231 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: me eight three three four one two w XDX. I 232 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: know I scare callers off, but I like them to 233 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: have a clue. By the way, were mentioned about Connor Griffin. 234 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I just forgot to do the Buco 235 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: round up. Oh my god, I forgot to do the 236 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: Buco round up. Well, it's time for the Buco round up. 237 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: Connor Griffin has a one point one three five ops 238 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: after three Triple A games. As a expected should have 239 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: been here at seasons beginning. Hopefully we'll be here soon. 240 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: What's the magic date? April ninth? Let's hope. I forgot 241 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: to do the Bucko roundup? Oh I suck, But that'll 242 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: have to stand for buckle round up. But I'll tell 243 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: you later. Uh why they should bench O'Neil Cruz for 244 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: Jake Mangum. 245 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 2: Oh I suck. 246 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: Then again, we don't have a sponsor for the buckle roundup, 247 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: so who cares. I'm gonna talk hockey with Phil Bork 248 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: next one oh five to nine Penguins at New York 249 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: Islanders tonight, big game in Queens, joining me now on site, 250 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: the two time Stanley Cup champion on TV on radio. 251 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: He's awesome doing everything and anything. He is the old 252 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: two to niner. Phil bork Borky Malkins ad sid's a 253 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: game time decision. I want to be optimistic, but boy, 254 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: they've had to overcome a lot of stuff like this 255 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: for a long time. 256 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 4: God foon devil, I'm good to be on with you 257 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 4: like always, and I concur yeah, I mean, you go back. 258 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 4: It just seems like this has been a trail that 259 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 4: we've been walking down for quite a while where we're 260 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 4: just trying to deacon and diving right. We don't want 261 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 4: to get bit by the snakes, we don't want to 262 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 4: get jumped by a lion. You know. We just want 263 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 4: to keep putting one foot in front of the other. 264 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 4: And I think for the most part they've done that. 265 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 4: And I know that, you know, we've had some stinging losses, 266 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 4: but we've also had some incredible comeback victories, whether it's 267 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 4: just getting a point or actually winning the hockey games. 268 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 4: To be without sitting Gino, as long as we have 269 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 4: and don't break, we's gotten there too, because you know, 270 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 4: some of the numbers are starting to bear out just 271 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 4: how important he is into the Penguins, not only their 272 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 4: special teams as far as the penalty killing, but wins 273 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 4: and losses without a guy like Lozo. So at the 274 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 4: end of the day, you really got to give them 275 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 4: a lot of credit that it's a team with a 276 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 4: lot of heart. It's a team that likes each other, 277 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 4: a team that fights for each other with each other. 278 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 4: It's a fun team to watch. But you're right now 279 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 4: we're getting down to big boy hockey. Now. You can't 280 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 4: have any moral victories. You can't just say good try, 281 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 4: way to work. You can't have that. It's all about 282 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 4: getting the points and getting into the playoffs. 283 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: What would you do tactically against the Islanders because they're 284 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: a top heavy roster. They got shape for Serroken, barzol 285 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: Horvat has a ton of goals, but it drops off 286 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: from there. How do you play them? I would just 287 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: hitch Shafer every time I could. 288 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 4: He's eighteen, right, But I'm sure teams are saying that 289 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 4: about ben Kindall too. But Ben Kindall is not Matthew Schaeffer. 290 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 4: This kid is unbelievable. You look at him and you're 291 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 4: thinking he could still be playing bantam hockey by the 292 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 4: way he just looks his appearance. But then you walked 293 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 4: him played for thirty seconds, You're like, oh, that's different. Oh, 294 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 4: that's special. And yeah, you got to dump in this 295 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 4: corner and run the snot out of them every single 296 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 4: chance you get. I mean, I'm sure other teams have tried, 297 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,959 Speaker 4: but you got to continue to try to do it 298 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 4: because he is such an important part of their offense, 299 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 4: such important part of their power play. But tactically, to 300 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 4: get back to your original question, it's got to be 301 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 4: an unbelievable simple game and all the little plays, Mark, 302 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 4: and I'm talking about taking a hit to make a 303 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 4: play to get the puck out of your own blue line, 304 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 4: you know, making sure that you take a hit to 305 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 4: get to the red line to dump it in, to 306 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:19,959 Speaker 4: dump it in with the purpose to get in on 307 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 4: the fore check, get in on Schaeffer, get in front 308 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 4: of the eyes of Soroken. All those little things that 309 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 4: never end up on the score sheet. You have to 310 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 4: do them as close to perfect as it possibly can 311 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 4: against the New York Islanders, because you're right, there's nothing 312 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 4: fancy about them. They play a very simple game. They 313 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 4: play a bit of a heavy game. They're physical as 314 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 4: a group. Even the guys that don't look physical, they 315 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,199 Speaker 4: play physical. Patrick Wader, head coach, demands that, and so 316 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 4: listen there's no smoking mirrors, there's no I can't give 317 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 4: you any magic recipes of magic words, Mark because they 318 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 4: play a simple game. They've got guys like Barzel and 319 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 4: Lead and hole Bats that can hurt you offensively. But 320 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 4: it's a team that you've got to beat them at 321 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,959 Speaker 4: their own game. And it sounds like a boring answer, 322 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 4: but it's the right answer. You have to play simple, 323 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 4: boring road hockey and find a way to get in 324 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 4: front of. 325 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: Seropen one hundred percent agree, And in that vein, you 326 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 1: got to simplify. Like on Saturday, they had twelve shots 327 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: against Dallas, which is unacceptable, and I don't care how 328 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: many were Grade eight chances. You got to give yourself 329 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: a chance to get lucky in a game like tonight, 330 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: just get pucks on that. 331 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 2: I'm not saying Srokean would blow it. 332 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying maybe you wear him down and at any 333 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: rate that keeps the puck in their end, which I 334 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: think is is paramount because I'll be blunt, I could 335 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: see Sorocan stealing this game. 336 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 2: I'm not so sure about hilloffs. 337 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 4: Fair enough, Crocan all time agains the Penguins twelve six, 338 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 4: and oh it sounds like a pretty good record, and 339 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 4: it is, but his goal against average mark is three 340 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 4: point two. Oh so they got to him before. And 341 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 4: I try to run my brain a little bit about 342 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 4: how they have scored against him, and it's been a 343 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 4: lot out of you know, pucks from behind the net, 344 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 4: banking it off his backside. Second and third opportunities were 345 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 4: just real greasy type of goals. I don't remember. Remember 346 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,959 Speaker 4: a lot of fancy, you know, tic tac toe goals 347 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 4: against him. Guys coming down the left wing and blast 348 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 4: him from thirty five feet and blowing the past him. 349 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 4: He just don't do that against the guy like this. 350 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 4: He's very athletic, very aggressive, and at times you could 351 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 4: take advantage that if you cause chaos in front of 352 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 4: his goal and you want to park a little bit 353 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 4: more than the New York Islanders. So I don't discount 354 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 4: archer Shee lost either. He's on a little bit of 355 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 4: a run. You know, that game against Ottawa I thought 356 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 4: he was really good in. And he's twelve five to 357 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 4: two in his last nineteen games. So he's got some 358 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 4: traction and he has the ability to play bigger and 359 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 4: better and more important games. And as you mentioned, and 360 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 4: I concur doctor, this is the biggest game of the year. 361 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 4: You win this one, and if you can do anything 362 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 4: tomorrow night against Detroit, you have put yourself in an 363 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 4: unbelievable spot before you head down to Tampa Bay to 364 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 4: take on the Lightning Later in the week. 365 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: We're talking to the old two Niner, Phil bork here 366 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,199 Speaker 1: on the Mark Madden Show. This segment brought to us 367 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: by brick Layers and Allied craft Workers Local nine. Borky, 368 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: and you'll sympathize with this because you were in the mix. Well, 369 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: actually just left when ninety three happened, that vullet goal. 370 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: But why is it always the frigate Islanders nineteen seventy five, 371 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty two, nineteen ninety three, twenty twenty one. I 372 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: have all that memorized, Borki, the villains Vallock, Tonelli, Bailey, 373 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: west Fault, Chico Resch. I hate that they do this 374 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 1: to us because I don't necessarily hate them. They're not 375 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: the Flyers, but they frustrate me. 376 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 4: I figured it out, and that's it. You just brought 377 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 4: it up. They're not the Flyers, but they have that 378 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 4: color orange in their uniform. I thought it this morning, 379 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 4: and I crimped I had a little bit of the shakes, 380 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 4: you know, geez, you said it perfectly like this team. Man, 381 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 4: Why did the names have changed? The coaches have changed, Hell, 382 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 4: the venue has changed. They don't even play at that 383 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 4: old barn anymore, the Nasau Coliseum. They play at the 384 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 4: Ubs Arena. It's all bright and shiny and new. But 385 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 4: it kind of seems to be the same story. But 386 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 4: you know what, I will say this, Mark, we are 387 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 4: talking about the same kind of not maybe the history 388 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 4: of the Penguins in the Islanders, but we talked about 389 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 4: a tough building and a tough team to play against, 390 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 4: especially in Ottawa. We talked about that and what do 391 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 4: they do. They went into Ottawa and they found a way. 392 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 4: It's going to be one of those games too. I 393 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 4: will say this. I wanted to kind of take this 394 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 4: and think about this as the game's going on. Do 395 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 4: you know all season long, the Penguins have not won 396 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,719 Speaker 4: a game won nothing or two to one. They have 397 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 4: not won a game by those scores all year long. 398 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 4: In fact, they've only won one game all year long 399 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 4: by the score of three to two, and that was 400 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 4: against the worst team in the league, that Vancouver Canucks. 401 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 4: Why do I bring that up Because I truly believe 402 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 4: if the Penguins don't win this game, they have to 403 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 4: win it off of defense. They have to win start 404 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 4: winning these one nothing, two to one three two games, 405 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 4: which I again, they've only won one of them all 406 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 4: year against the worst team in the league. That's how 407 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 4: you got to win this game. That's the mentality you 408 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 4: have to have going into this hockey game that we 409 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 4: are going to win with our defense. We've got enough 410 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 4: guys that can score. If we get eighty seven in 411 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 4: the back in the lineup, that changes a lot to 412 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 4: the way they defend and the way we feel about 413 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,439 Speaker 4: ourselves in our game. And so there's a lot of 414 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 4: moving parts right there. But at the end of the day, 415 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 4: they got to win one of these low scoring games 416 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 4: because that's how you win down the stretch, that's how 417 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 4: you hopefully win in the playoffs. 418 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: Do you have a feeling about Sid any inside information 419 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: on whether he goes. 420 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 4: I don't have any insider. I go fifty one to 421 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 4: forty nineties in I know that's that's sitting on the 422 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 4: fence and I hate to do it, but yeah, I 423 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 4: kind of get that stut feeling that he knows what's 424 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 4: on the line, he knows how important these games are 425 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 4: down the stretch, and he doesn't want to do the 426 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 4: one step forward, two steps back by coming back a 427 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 4: little bit early and then having regrets right and saying, 428 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 4: oh damn it. If I just waited a few more days, 429 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 4: I think I would have been good for the whole stretch. 430 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 4: So I think he's got that tightrope right now of 431 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 4: where he is. And listen, he's a lot like Mario, right. 432 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 4: I would never count him out. I'm going fifty one 433 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 4: in his favor, obviously. But you know Mario, you know 434 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 4: said that when the team needs them him the most, 435 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 4: more times than not, they find that stallion in the 436 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 4: back carriage there and saddle him up and come riding 437 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 4: in to help save the day. 438 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: Right, the white horse, and speaking the white horse, Eric 439 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: Carlson certainly saddled his up. I had somebody on Twitter 440 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: earlier work he say, well, maybe Carlson could pick it up, 441 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: and I tweeted back, how much more can he do? 442 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: I mean, look at how great he was against Dallas 443 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: Saturday and we still lost. He is on such a 444 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: heater it is coffee esque, and I don't say that lightly. 445 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 4: It is coffee es. I don't know if you caught 446 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 4: him after the Mantha goal, but it was his shot 447 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 4: that Mantha deflected. He went by the bench in the 448 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 4: conga line and he had had a leaning back, huge 449 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 4: smile on his face, and he's kissing his stick. I mean, 450 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 4: this guy is in such a sweet spot. He is 451 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 4: on the long board, He's on top of the wave, 452 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 4: and the beach is way way in the distance. He 453 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 4: is just riding that wave and he is He's got 454 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 4: his pants down around his ankle. That's how much call 455 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 4: Eric Carlson's feeling it right now. I mean he is. 456 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,360 Speaker 4: He's having a blast doing it, and I don't see 457 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 4: him slowing down. He is in this unbelievable sweet spot 458 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 4: that any athlete wishes we could be in for more 459 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 4: than one game. But he's been in the whole month 460 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 4: of March. I don't see it slowing down. I think 461 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,439 Speaker 4: he's just having a blast doing it. And no, he 462 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 4: needs to ride this thing all the way to the beach, 463 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 4: which would be April fourteenth, last Penguins game in Saint 464 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 4: Louis Well. 465 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: I hope he can, and I'd like to see one 466 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: other Blue liner tonight. 467 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 2: Borkie. 468 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: You're not going to play to Carl's level, but but 469 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,719 Speaker 1: get close, because that's one thing that's hurt. Whenever Carl's 470 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: not on the ice. I think the blue line play 471 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: drops off considerably. 472 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 4: Well. Yeah, I mean it's pretty obvious that you know, 473 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 4: we need more from Crystal Tang, we need more from 474 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 4: Sam Gerard. I think you're getting a lot. I hope 475 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 4: you'll concur from Parker World of Spoon and from from 476 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 4: Chilly Ryan Shait. 477 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 1: No, I'm not saying anybody sucks s worky, far from it. 478 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: I'm just saying it'd be good if somebody just picked 479 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: it up to some degree, Like Carlson has a fraction 480 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: with Carlson ass. 481 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 4: Well, I'm going to agree with you, but respectfully disagree 482 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 4: with you a little bit because that's not where my 483 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 4: eyeballs are tonight. My eyeballs are in the bottom nine, 484 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 4: the bottom six. We're getting goals from the same guys again. 485 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 4: It's we're starting to lean into that again. Mark, it's 486 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 4: sixty seven, it's seventeen, it's sixty five, and it's fifty nine. Yeah, 487 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 4: I know, you got a goal from a chari the 488 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 4: other night, and you got one from look at me. 489 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 4: I just ran my brain here, Anthony matter. But other 490 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 4: than that, that's it. That's it. Over the last five games, 491 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 4: you haven't got a goal from anybody else. So it's 492 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 4: gotta be Brazo, it's gotta be do or, it's gotta 493 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,239 Speaker 4: be you know, a lot. There's a lot of other 494 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 4: guys that are on a bit of dry spells. I 495 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 4: don't mean to point them out, and I'm not saying 496 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 4: they're playing bad, but at the end of the day, 497 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 4: we got nine games to go. Man, we can see it. 498 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 4: We can see the playoffs right there in the horizon. 499 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 4: But we're not gonna make it. We're not gonna make 500 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 4: it unless these guys start chipping in goals. I'm not 501 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 4: saying you gotta score, you gotta school, you gotta score. 502 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 4: But for the love of all that's holy, if you 503 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 4: really want to be a PA playoff team, you need 504 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 4: to start getting goals from other guys. 505 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 2: Four key. 506 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: I will guarantee that if the bottom six scores one 507 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: goal each game from not till season's end, they will 508 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: make the playoffs. 509 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 4: You heard it here first. 510 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 2: That that seems to be what's what's required. 511 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: Hey, this is kind of a dicey topic because I 512 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: hate to come off as whiny, but how much have 513 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: the refs hurt? The paying was in replay too, like 514 00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 1: that non call against Dallas when Carlson got his snatched 515 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: the way and then they scored right after no call, 516 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,959 Speaker 1: like he went insane, and I don't blame him. 517 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 4: I don't blame either. It's flagrant. I mean, listen, you're 518 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 4: like me. You know, I can remember what we're talking 519 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 4: thirty almost thirty five years ago, ninety one, ninety two 520 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 4: of those playoff runs. I can remember, either on the 521 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 4: bench or in the locker room. Hey boys, let's go. 522 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 4: We gotta beat the opponent, and we got to beat 523 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 4: the refs tonight. And it's not gonna change, okay, But 524 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 4: I will say this. You've been around long enough. I've 525 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 4: been around long enough, and when when it smells like poop, 526 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 4: it's probably poop. And what's going on right now? I 527 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 4: hate to say this because I'm not. 528 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: Like, oh yeah, the league is against us, Oh yeah, 529 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: the league wants to screw the Penguins. 530 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 4: I never bought into any of that. But what I'm witnessing, 531 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 4: and then I'm being down between the benches the other night, 532 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 4: I think it's an absolute disrespect to DMN use. That's 533 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 4: what I truly feel, Mark, That's what I feel. It's 534 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 4: like this rookie coach, screw you man. You're getting initiated. 535 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 4: You're gonna learn the hard way, and I feel like that. 536 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 4: It just seems so and again I sign like the 537 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 4: whiny bitch that you just talk about, and I never 538 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 4: do that, but it just seems it's too many times. 539 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 4: It's just too many times, and it just seems like 540 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 4: something's just not right and it smells like poop pork. 541 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 2: You know what bothers me more than anything. 542 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: Right now, the Philadelphia Flyers are coming on strong, just 543 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: two points behind the Penguins, freaking pocket, I mean, and 544 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: then and then almost done the same side of that coin. 545 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: And you'll understand Torts is back coaching. It's a world 546 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: gone mad. 547 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 4: The world has gone mad, Yes, it officially has. Yeah. 548 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 4: The Flyers have won three in a row, four of 549 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 4: the last five, and then the month of March to 550 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 4: ten three and one, and I just beat the Dallas 551 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 4: Stars in overtime. It's just another team in the mix, right, 552 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 4: you got seventeen separated by six, but. 553 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 2: They're the hot team. Borky, and that's what worries me. 554 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 4: Okay, Well, rip the rearview mirror off, mister Madden. Okay, 555 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 4: and sorry about finishing seconds. Well, no, you stay sober 556 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 4: when you drive. Listen, listen. Just it's another team that's 557 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 4: in the mix, where the peng we need. It's not 558 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 4: gonna be easy, it's gonna be heart wrenching, it's gonna 559 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 4: be entertaining. It's just who we are. And if you 560 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 4: want to bring the flyers and bring them in the mix, 561 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 4: let's go. If you're good enough, if you're really good enough, 562 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 4: don't back yourself into the playoffs. Take care of your 563 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 4: own business. You still control your own destiny. Take care 564 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 4: of your business. Wherever the flyer is finished, who cares? 565 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 4: Who gives the rats? You know what? Take care of 566 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 4: your business and get to the playoffs. 567 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: Fourky is always great stuff.

We'll catch up with 575 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: with well we already technically did a bucko round up 576 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: with that little Connor Griffin status thing. But we'll talk 577 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: about O'Neil Cruz at the top of the hour, who 578 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: should be benched? 579 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 2: And U up next? What do we got? 580 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: I can't find it, the hell with it, but I 581 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: will be back one O five to nine. Here's some 582 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: breaking news, although it's not news, not really. 583 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 2: It's fresh sound, is what it is. 584 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: It's Steelers coach Mike McCarthy on the Pat mcabee Show 585 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: talking about the possibility of Aaron Rodgers coming back to 586 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh to play a second season. 587 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 5: I've talked of Aaron regularly and we'll we'll continue to 588 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 5: do so. And and we're just working, you know, we're 589 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 5: just working through it, you know, and when it was 590 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 5: when it's time to you know, fully address if we will, 591 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 5: but it's you know, it's a process that he's going 592 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 5: through and I'm coming aboard it. But we've had very 593 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 5: very positive conversations on a weekly basis. 594 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: Now what McCarthy said is being described by wishful thinkers 595 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: as big Mike. Knowing that Aaron Rodgers will be coming 596 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: back to play quarterback for the Steelers. I didn't hear 597 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: that at all. What process is there? That's laughable. He's 598 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: either inter out, do you gotta talk Rogers into it? 599 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: Is he gonna flip a coin? Does his wife have 600 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: to write him a note? What process inter outs? And 601 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: if McCarthy does know for sure? I certainly didn't sense that, 602 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: But then again, I don't care at all. That's probably 603 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: part of it. Here's Peter Schrager on ESPN about the 604 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: possibility of replacement refs in the NFL if they can't 605 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: come to an agreement with the referees union. 606 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 6: Everyone in the league got a memo saying, don't talk 607 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 6: publicly if you're a team official about this. 608 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 2: Let's leave this for forty eight hours. 609 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 6: Don't have any comments, try to dismiss that was from 610 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 6: the league, a memo from them. So already you feel like, okay, Well, 611 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 6: then that means tensions are heightened. And then you got 612 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 6: some talking points that everyone got. The same people that 613 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 6: always get all those same information. They all got the 614 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 6: same information about what the league has opened up as 615 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 6: far as conversations go. And then Scott Green, who's the 616 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 6: officials union leader, he came out and was. 617 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 2: Like, that's bs, here is this, this and this. 618 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 6: So it's very public right now, everyone's kind of chirping 619 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 6: back and forth. But the league learned its lesson in 620 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 6: twenty twelve when they went through the replacement ref situation. 621 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 6: A lot of those people were unprepared. So I would 622 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 6: not be shocked if you see some D one, D two, 623 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 6: D three officials getting a little bit of extra work 624 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 6: maybe during training camp or potentially during OTA's at these teams, 625 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 6: just to see if we can get those balls in 626 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 6: motion if this thing doesn't come to be. 627 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: I don't think replacement referees in the NFL would be 628 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: the disaster that some seem to think. The regular refs 629 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: are all fat, can't move, a lot of them washed up. 630 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 1: They blow calls all the time, they concede to replay. 631 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we'll sort it out later. You can see 632 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: that on a lot of calls. Some young legs and 633 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: new blood with the refs might be good. You shouldn't 634 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 1: be bullied by the replaceable, and NFL refs are replaceable. 635 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: This thing but brought to us by the Steelers Pro Shop. 636 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,720 Speaker 1: Get it direct from the team at shop dot Steelers 637 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: dot com. Greg Brown the Bucko anncer. He's a homer. 638 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: That's not a knock on him. He's paid to be 639 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: a homer, but he's still called out O'Neal. Cruise during 640 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: Sunday's game at New York. 641 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 6: Goes back and gets to it, underneath it, finds it. 642 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 5: I do want to see a look a bit more 643 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 5: enthusiasm to get the ball in Brett Batty. Yeah, still 644 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 5: he went back to tag. 645 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Brett Batty. 646 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: If he had tagged, he probably is at second base, 647 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: but he decided not to advance. 648 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 2: Oh a lock of days ago on Cruise's part. 649 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 1: That's Greg Brian. You heard Matt Capps's voice in there 650 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: as well. And let me reiterate, I love the Pirates 651 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 1: broadcast team. I think they do a terrific job. It 652 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: was a sacfly Cruise couldn't have made the play at 653 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: the plate, but he just lolligag you know what. 654 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 2: That makes him a lolligagger. Again. 655 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:49,760 Speaker 1: I'm definitely not knocking Brownie, but it's just a Cruise 656 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: is such a dog that even the home team ANNOUNCERR 657 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: got to say something.
