1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: Gavin McKenna got arrested for felony assault. The Penn State freshman,

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: the presumptive first pick overall in the next NHL draft,

3
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: broke a guy's john a bar fight that was after

4
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: the outdoor game at Penn State on Saturday.

5
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 2: I wonder if that ends his season at Penn State.

6
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: And I was gonna wonder if he would still be

7
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: the first pick overall. But I've been told by those

8
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: who know ain't gonna be no problem. This won't affect

9
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: his draft status at all. In fact, it might even

10
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: help it. And I'll tell you why just a little

11
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: bit later. I wonder if the guy that McKenna punched

12
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: had blue hair, come and get some Actually, there's a

13
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: story the man was harassing McKenna's mom. I'm not kidding,

14
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: and that's why McKenna flipped out, broke the guys jaw

15
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: effed him up, knocked him out. And there's some sound

16
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 1: out there we're trying to get from a street camera.

17
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: The moment's right before the fight.

18
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: We'll have that.

19
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: We're hoping a little bit later in the show, What's

20
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: Now Welcome Tommy Radio.

21
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: Tom.

22
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: I look at the Baltimore staff and the Steelers' staff,

23
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: and I feel like Baltimore has given itself a higher

24
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: ceiling with that staff and for their team.

25
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 3: Baltimore kind of did what you think the Steelers would

26
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 3: do right, or like what the Steelers pass track record

27
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,639
Speaker 3: had been when it came to firing and stuff, especially

28
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 3: when it came to mentor right, the head coaching higher,

29
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 3: the young up and coming guy and the declan Doyle Hile.

30
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 2: Of course it's exciting.

31
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 3: Maybe he sucks, he hasn't had experience calling plays yet,

32
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 3: but I want to take that risk at least I

33
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,639
Speaker 3: want to at least see what is under that stone.

34
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 3: Would rather not leave that unturned. So of course it's

35
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 3: more exciting in this moment. But same with Baltimore and Pittsburgh,

36
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 3: Like you can't glean that much.

37
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: Out of these coaching staff hires, not until the actual

38
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 2: season starts and you see what these offenses look like,

39
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: how the defense are.

40
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: At least with the Baltimore's I'm interested. I'm more interested

41
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: intrigue there. I'm more interested in this declan guy, the

42
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: twenty nine year old offensive coordinator, than I am anything

43
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: the Steelers have done. I wonder how Lamar Jackson is

44
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: going to relate to an offensive coordinator who's twenty nine

45
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: and relatively inexperienced.

46
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 2: Will that guy have his respect?

47
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: Then again, maybe Lamar with an OC the same age

48
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: as him, will relate. Maybe that's the hidden value in

49
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: having a young guy if he knows what he's doing.

50
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 3: Of course, and the Doyle guy is gonna get to

51
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 3: be the offensive coordinator in full play calling on game day.

52
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 2: Right because Minner's a defensive guy. Yeah, exactly.

53
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 3: Coach Angelicio for the Steelers is just gonna be the

54
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 3: details guy. He's gonna kind of be what Tara Austin

55
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 3: wants for Mike Tollin, just for Mike McCarthy on the

56
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 3: offensive side of the ball, installing the offense, teaching it,

57
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: helping McCarthy put the script together.

58
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: But it's all on McCarthy come game day.

59
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: And make no mistake, I have no problem with the

60
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: hire of Angelicio by all accounts. He works hard, he

61
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 1: does detail in his diligence in that job, and you know,

62
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: and he'll learn under McCarthy for sure.

63
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 2: From what I hear.

64
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: Mccarthy'll let the guy have great input. It's just on

65
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: game day, McCarthy's gonna call the place.

66
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, It's not like he's iced out of the playbook

67
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 3: or like he gets the playbook with You know, there's

68
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 3: no where wiggle room for you to have any input

69
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 3: on this. And I'm sure even on game days he

70
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 3: might be like, hey, Mike, I think this play would work.

71
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 3: We've been hitting a lot in practice, and Mike might

72
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 3: take that into consideration. But at the end of the day,

73
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 3: the call going into it's gonna be Aaron Rodgers' helmet

74
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 3: is gonna be from Mike McCarthy, and then Rogers will

75
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 3: ignore that call and do whatever he wants.

76
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: Did you seem like Tom and his wife won some

77
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: kind of an award? It was all over Twitter. What

78
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: did Shakespeare say? Me think Stall does protest too much?

79
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: And Jay Glazer said, and I quote, Mike is happy

80
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: being a dad, Happy being a dad.

81
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: Come and get some.

82
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 4: Uh.

83
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 2: The pirates did it again.

84
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: Tom almost got somebody almost got Schwarber, suadez Okamoto and

85
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: now Valdez. Those four guys could beat the Pirate's just

86
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: them four. The speed they're better than the power's best

87
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: four way better come.

88
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 3: Against some The speed with which they just missed on Framber.

89
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: Valdez too, was just so glorious ken Resenthal getting that

90
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 3: pumped up just yesterday, and then I think it was

91
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 3: passing broke it that night up. Nope, he's going to

92
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 3: the Tigers mega deal.

93
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: And then the guy down the dial he says, don't

94
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: count this out. It could happen. And then when Valdez

95
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: signs he makes fun of how it didn't pin out again.

96
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: I mean, well, which isn't for hectice sake, have a

97
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: little credibility.

98
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 2: What are the Tigers doing? Can't believe they overpaid full

99
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 2: of franchise? You know.

100
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: It is weird though, And we'll get to the Schooble

101
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: arbitration figure he's demanding in a little bit.

102
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 2: It is weird.

103
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: I mean, do you think they signed Valdez to to

104
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: replace Schooble?

105
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 2: Yes? Do you yeah?

106
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 3: Replacement it's a three year No, it's not. It's it's

107
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: definitely a downgrade. You could only replace school with one

108
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 3: pitcher to be an upgrade. It's Paul Skans. I think

109
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 3: he's the second.

110
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 2: But you think you think they'll keep Schooble this year.

111
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 3: This year they'll do the arbitration. If he gets big arbitration,

112
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 3: they'll take that. But then if he gets the big

113
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: arbitration reward. He's gonna want a long term contract after that,

114
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 3: worth more than what the arbitration award was annually. Franbervaldez

115
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 3: is their insurance. Isn't it like thirty five thirty eight

116
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 3: million a year for Valdez, Like it's super expensive for

117
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 3: him too.

118
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's too much. It's three years a buck fifteen. Yeah,

119
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: that's way overpay, but you gotta do that. Yeah, but

120
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: like that's less than I'm looking for the figure because

121
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: I've peased the Scooble number and now I might as

122
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: well just just just yell it out. But it's more

123
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 1: than scoobale once that that's in arbitration.

124
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 2: That's kind of weird.

125
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: That part is well, I mean, maybe they're gonna push

126
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: for one big last year with Scooble.

127
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 3: Or maybe the Tigers are just gonna say fit and

128
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 3: they're gonna sign Scoble too, and they're gonna just put

129
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 3: all their chips into the middle of the table and

130
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 3: have Scooble and Valdez head up their rotation and go for.

131
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 2: A world series. And you can always trade Scooble.

132
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, Maybe not Valdez because he's older and that

133
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 3: contract's crazy.

134
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: Here here's the figure. Scooble wants thirty two mil in

135
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 1: this his last year of arbitration. The Tigers have offered

136
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: nineteen mili vers.

137
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: Nineteen mil though, I feel like they'll meet him right

138
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 2: at thirty two million. He's a nineteen million is such

139
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 2: a low ball from.

140
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 1: The Tigers there, Well, baseball arbitration, it's either or correct?

141
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 3: Can the panel come back with a middle figure? And

142
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 3: I think you're right. I think they just awarded to

143
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 3: either or. I think it's the party wins.

144
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

145
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,919
Speaker 1: Uh, you know what the consolation prize is gonna be

146
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: for Bucco fans, don't you Kutch Couch is gonna.

147
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 2: Come crawling back to be a mascot? Is that going

148
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 2: to be their next like quote unquote big signing?

149
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 3: Because did you see the little fart move that they

150
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 3: made before the show started, the pitcher Jose Iquity or

151
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 3: whatever they signed.

152
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: Some I thought that was the martial arts guy. No,

153
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 1: that it's Bennity Jet Equities. Now this guy had elbow surgeries.

154
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 2: Pitched.

155
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: I thought, this is Grady's pitched two and a third

156
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: innings total over the past two years.

157
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 3: And rocked in those two and a third innings, like

158
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 3: he had two appearances last year as he are's over seven.

159
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: I mean what I mean just I don't know. Well,

160
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: that's a typical Pirates.

161
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 3: It's just a fart in the wind. It means nothing.

162
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 3: And I guess he was a starter at one point.

163
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 3: I don't know if he will be anymore, though he

164
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 3: might move to the bullpen. It's just it's such a

165
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 3: meaningless move.

166
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: And you know, I believe the Pirates and their fanboy media,

167
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: because everyone who covers the team in this town is

168
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: a Pirate fan. I believe that the Pirates just planted

169
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 1: that for hype. Even I knew that right away, like

170
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: like the Schwarber thing, I knew they never get hit yep.

171
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: I thought they had a chance with Suarez. Me too,

172
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: I thought it was real.

173
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 2: And the Japanese guy, I mean.

174
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: I think there's a chance theah, But like I said

175
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: before we closed on the comma, we're not gonna sign

176
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: the Japanese guy. Come and get some and we wouldn't

177
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: put it in the bidet right right, Yeah, I can't

178
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: afford a bidet. Plus, I mean, does everyone use the

179
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: same bidet or is there like like all kinds of

180
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: different like, is it in each toilet?

181
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 2: Is it separate? I know there's different ways of doing

182
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,559
Speaker 2: a bidet. I never used the bidet personally, I would

183
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 2: for sure, I would definitely use it. Would I kind

184
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 2: of want to install one in my house, even not

185
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: using one, I'm that confident i'd like it.

186
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: You know what I use without being too graphic, is

187
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: I have the shower nozzle you take down, like the handle.

188
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 2: That is so clutch when you're in the shower. Well,

189
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 2: you know, you know, you know, we can just get everywhere.

190
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: You know.

191
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: What helps a lot too when you're old. Oh, no questions,

192
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: there's my my reach is my limited?

193
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: Yeah? My so was my grasp for that matter. But

194
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 2: what's the heaven for?

195
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: To paraphrase some old famous philosophizer quote. But no, I

196
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: knew the Valdez throws crap right away because let's say

197
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: they were going to spend money, it wouldn't be on

198
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: a pitcher.

199
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that. I mean their pitching staff

200
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: is pretty loaded up right now. It would be on

201
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 3: the hitter. The Valdas and the Shore were one were

202
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 3: total bs from start to finish. I think they were

203
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 3: in on some of the other candidates that they missed

204
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 3: on but these were planted, just misses. There was never

205
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,199
Speaker 3: a chance they landed these ways.

206
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: And Naylor too, Naylor was I forgot. I forgot to

207
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: put him at my list.

208
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: Naylor. That was BS two because that happened so fast too.

209
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: Remember the five names three were total BS. Suarez they

210
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: probably went for fifteen million. I have to assume there

211
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 1: was some. But yeah, here's the thing. If they if

212
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: they had a chance, they should have got them. That's

213
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: a failure on their part, no question.

214
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

215
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: I mean, like guy said, if it would have taken

216
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: two years, forty million do that.

217
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 3: I'm sick of the excuses that people make too with that,

218
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 3: where it's like, ah, he's bad for the ballpark. Okay,

219
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 3: so he hits twenty six home runs this year and

220
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 3: he hits a billion doubles into the north side, notch,

221
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 3: I'll take that. That's better than anything you got. How

222
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 3: much better are the pirates right now?

223
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,959
Speaker 1: Because I think what they got now, aside from maybe

224
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 1: you know, dotting some eyes and crossing some tea, some

225
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: minor move like the guy they just got whose arm

226
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: fell off a couple of years back, I'd say maybe tops.

227
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 2: This is tops seventy six seventy seven wins.

228
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: But that is dependent on everybody, especially the new guys

229
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: Wile and O'Hearn having very good.

230
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 3: Years and the staff's staying healthy and being the number

231
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: one staff in baseball. Like that's I think being assumed

232
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 3: by a lot of people when they have these delusions

233
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 3: of grand around the Pirates, you're spot on where the

234
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: number is. I was thinking like seventy eight seventy nine

235
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 3: in my mind, approaching that eighty and eighty two mark,

236
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 3: finishing just a game under five hundred two games under.

237
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: If I covered the Pirates, I'd be embarrassed by well,

238
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: you know what, though they're fan, they just think that

239
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: the way they cover the team is like I don't know,

240
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: I mean, like, are they journalists or are they fans?

241
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 2: Or are they journalists? Do think it's okay to be

242
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: a fan.

243
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: It's a brave new world out there, Okay, But I'm

244
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: a fan the way I mean. I watched ESPN this

245
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: morning and I I just kind of let my mind wander.

246
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: Next thing, I know, I was watching the First Take Show,

247
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: which is even dumber than the the Get Up Show,

248
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh God, it's come to this but

249
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 1: you know what it has come to this.

250
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 3: Okay, But I'm a fan of the Pirates too, Like

251
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 3: I want them to win this year. I want them

252
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 3: to do well. I want to see that. But like

253
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 3: I also know what I'm looking at right now. You know,

254
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 3: I follow baseball. I understand that this roster's not good

255
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 3: enough right now.

256
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: Nobody's nobody's a bigger Penguin fan than me, and nobody

257
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: win the time is appropriate. It is harder on them

258
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: than me, and it rings truer because I know what

259
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: I'm talking about.

260
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 3: You have every excuse right now for the Penguins mark

261
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 3: to cannonball on into the waters of playoffs. This that

262
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 3: become a total fanily, and you have been resisting that

263
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 3: at every turn. You know why, because you don't think

264
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 3: they might make it, or there's a chance they might not.

265
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 2: Because I'm just not sure coming in.

266
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 5: So listen to the X everywhere you go, everywhere, tell

267
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 5: your sport device, Ale's a play one oh five point

268
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,719
Speaker 5: ninety X on iHeartRadio.

269
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 2: You know what time it is.

270
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 1: Everybody gave our twenty wallet Tom. The Penguins are Buffalo tonight.

271
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: Here all the action right here on the X. Lots

272
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: of guys are out, uh Raquel out, Lazatte on paternity leave.

273
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: A charis a game time decision. Avery Hayes is up.

274
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,199
Speaker 1: We know mcgroarty's going in, and I'm assuming Kevin Hayes.

275
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 1: I guess Avery Hayes would be if a Chari can't go.

276
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: But but boy, that's a lot of guys to be missing,

277
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: and especially to take that fourth line two thirds out

278
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: of the mix.

279
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 2: Potentially that ain't good. Yeah, that really sucks.

280
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 3: So I hope a Chari can go and then just

281
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 3: put Kevin Hayes in the middle there, have him center

282
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 3: the fourth line, and then what do you do with

283
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 3: Sid's line? Do you just put Rutger up there? I

284
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 3: know Sid, he's very adverse to that, But you just

285
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 3: tell them the suck it up for this.

286
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 2: One game, one game.

287
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,719
Speaker 1: I'm not disrupting the other lines, although, oh, you are

288
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,959
Speaker 1: going to have to disrupt some of them, know, Although

289
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 1: I would be tempted to put chinacoff with Sid just

290
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 1: to see if it works, But I don't want to

291
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 1: break up the Malke go back and Chinacough line.

292
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't want modern communism to digest yet. Now,

293
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 2: what if you put Mantha up on Sid's line and

294
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 2: then had Kindall stay with McGroarty because they were playing

295
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 2: really well together and just have Brazil play the right wing.

296
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 2: I actually bet that's what they do. I don't hate it, No,

297
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 2: I don't hate it because it's basically what you did

298
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 2: with Brazo when Rust was out. Just on the other side.

299
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: If Sid's more comfortable with with Mantha than McGroarty, because

300
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: like you said, Kindle and McGroarty have shown decent chemistry

301
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 1: together the two young guys. So yeah, I wouldn't be

302
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: adverse to doing that at all. I find myself wondering

303
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: Tom if for Kel you know, might have a small injury,

304
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: but he's thinking about getting ready for Sweden and the Olympics,

305
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 1: which honestly I have no problem with because you look

306
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: at what happened last night to Charlie McAvoy of the

307
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: Boston Bruins and Team USA. He got his head taken

308
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: off and his status for the Olympics is unknown. You

309
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: might recall he was wearing a full face shield because

310
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: he took a slap shot to the melon at the

311
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,719
Speaker 1: beginning of the year. Like I said, big chicken wing

312
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: to the head from some Florida player last night, and

313
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: after what's happened to him, I mean the facial injury

314
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: this year, he hurt his shoulder last year at the

315
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: Four Nations, had an infection after that injury, and now

316
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: this from some cheap shot knitwit right before the Olympics.

317
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 2: Hockey used to have honor hockey.

318
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: I mean, never mind that it's a hit to the head,

319
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: which shouldn't happen, but you know, to do that to

320
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: a guy in a full face shield right before, you know,

321
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 1: a big moment in his career. That guy, I forget

322
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 1: the guy's name, just some knit wit, but he got

323
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 1: no honor. Yeah, I wonder what Marshan's thinking about. Who

324
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: was a McAvoy teammate. He's on Florida and he sees

325
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: that that's a great question.

326
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 3: And we were talking about with Pegeot, who's a Canadian

327
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 3: budding sid two games before the Olympics there and there's

328
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 3: no honor in that at all.

329
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 2: And beyond the Olympics, that's Sidney Crosby. You should just

330
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 2: respect him anyway.

331
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 3: I'm not saying you have to treat him with bubble wrap,

332
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 3: but there should be a sense of respect paid to him.

333
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: The league should be protect from Sidney Crosby. I have

334
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: a blog about that going to go up on the

335
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: X website. The league should be protecting him.

336
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 3: The thing he said about Raquel, though, that's absolutely crossed

337
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 3: my mind, not just with Raquel, but with a lot

338
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: of players that are dealing with injuries right around this

339
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 3: time who are on Olympic rosters. Because the players themselves

340
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 3: have made no secret about how important this is to them.

341
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 3: I'm not going to say that it's more important to

342
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 3: them than winning a Stanley Cup, but I think there's

343
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 3: some doubt, right and some of these guys. We played

344
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 3: a Jack Hughes sound by like a month ago when

345
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 3: they named the rosters, where he was like, this is

346
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 3: a huge thing, like a dream to win a gold medal,

347
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 3: and now we're back and the pros have a chance

348
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 3: to do it. So I do wonder if Raquel is

349
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 3: thinking with an eye towards Team Sweden. Again not saying

350
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 3: like he would just shut himself down like that's the priority.

351
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 3: But if I had to choose him fifty to fifty

352
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 3: on the fence, maybe I sit out this one game

353
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 3: so I'm good to go in Milan.

354
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 2: I would have a problem with that. Would you wouldn't.

355
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: I wouldn't either. I wouldn't either for one game. Now

356
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: the stuff something I do have a bit of a

357
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: problem with. You got Landis Coggin in the in Colorado

358
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: who's barely played for how many years now, and he's

359
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: just about okay to play when the Olympics come around,

360
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: so we can go play for swed and get hurt,

361
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: then come back and resume stealing money from the Avalanche.

362
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 3: That example is why I'm kind of thinking that Raquel

363
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 3: might be thinking in a similar manner, like with an

364
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 3: eye towards the Olympics, because Landis cog is clearly trying

365
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 3: his best to get back to play in the Olympics.

366
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 3: And yeah, if I was Colorado, I would really hate

367
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 3: that because you're important, man. You will help us on

368
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 3: this push in the second half if you're back, if

369
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 3: you can stay healthy. And there's no guarantee of that.

370
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 3: So what's with these extra six to seven games you're

371
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 3: gonna have to play?

372
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 2: Tom The plot thickens.

373
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody just made a big deal

374
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: out of this, but just I looked up the guy

375
00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: who hit McAvoy Sandisville Mannis. He's played in the Olympics

376
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: for Latvia. Guess who the US play in their first game?

377
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 2: Laatiyah. Wow, So you think this might have been an

378
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 2: inside job here as far as the Olympics are concerned.

379
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: What else could I possibly conclude?

380
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 3: It has legs? Yeah, no question about it. Those dirty

381
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 3: Latvians she LOFs. He should pay for this.

382
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 2: Do you really hate Latvians?

383
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 4: No?

384
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't even know anything more than these

385
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 2: two hockey players from what comes out of Latvia. We

386
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 2: had Peter screwed to he was Latvian, I think one

387
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 2: of the goalies. So just hockey players really always, as.

388
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: Far as I know, as far as the Penguins are concerned,

389
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: you know, the Olympics kind of negate momentum, Tom, but

390
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: the points count and you got to keep that cushion.

391
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: I see tonight as a not a huge game, but

392
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: you'd like to win it. And Buffalo, as I said

393
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: earlier this one twenty one and twenty seven, you read

394
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: that lot.

395
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: It almost seems like is this a lie or a typo?

396
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: I can't believe that, But I do like their defense, young,

397
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: tough and mobile Page Thompson, just don't compare him to Mario,

398
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 1: which you hear sometimes because he's tall.

399
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 3: Really, I've never heard that. That's absurd. They gotta win tonight.

400
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 3: They got to at least guarantee that they're gonna go

401
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 3: into the break in second place in the Metro. The

402
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 3: Islanders could lose to the Devils tonight and you just

403
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 3: get it by default anyway, but make sure you go

404
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 3: out there and take it, get into second place, go

405
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 3: into the break. And I'm excited for this break for

406
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 3: the Penguins. It's an older team in a lot of

407
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 3: areas that aren't sending their older players to the Olympics

408
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 3: other than sit In Carlson, So this is gonna be

409
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 3: much needed time off.

410
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: Who's the most likely team, Well, Carolina's gonna.

411
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 2: Win the Metro? I think, yeah, probably.

412
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: Most the Penguins sweep them into three games the teams

413
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: play in March. But besides the Islanders, who are the

414
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: Penguins going to worry about for finishing second or third

415
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: in the Metro?

416
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 3: Are you talking about, like, as far as a matchup

417
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 3: is concerned, and they're catching.

418
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: Them, who could catch them and knock them out the playoffs?

419
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 3: It really looks like Philly's done, So I want to

420
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 3: write them off. They're eight points back of the Penguins

421
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 3: and they play the same amount of games. They stink

422
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 3: Columbus seven straight wins. I mean, they're red hot right now.

423
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 3: I'd be worried about Columbus. And with a plus ten

424
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 3: goal differential in Washington, I guess you can't quite write

425
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 3: them off. But you got three games in hand on

426
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 3: them and are up five points.

427
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they have guys who have been there and done.

428
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 2: They could get really hot a few of them anyway.

429
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: Actually, I wonder I bet they have like maybe only

430
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: two or three guys left from their cup team back

431
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: in eighteen, because that's the way the NHL is.

432
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 2: It's quick turnover.

433
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 1: Look at, look at the Penguins only have only have

434
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: what is a three left from their cup teams in

435
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: sixteen and seventeen, right sid what, Tang and.

436
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 2: Malts the big three?

437
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: So yeah, I I I feel like I should worry

438
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: about New Jersey, but like they're so far down I'm

439
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: fond of saying about them. Whatever it is they never had,

440
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: they still haven't got.

441
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 2: Ovis starting to score a little bit too for the Caps.

442
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: Is twenty two goal start and fill it up more

443
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 3: if he gets out of the Olympic break hot with

444
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 3: that little rest, they could be a problem.

445
00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 2: Mark my words.

446
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: At least two guys on teams they're contenders will sustain

447
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: bad injuries at the Olympics because the breakneck pace. For example,

448
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: I wish I could bet it at at bet Parks.

449
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: How many Kachuks get injured and can't play in the

450
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: aftermath of the Olympics because they play every game like

451
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: a five car pole up, even worse when they're playing

452
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: for their country.

453
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 3: Would you throw some on Keith too, just in the

454
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 3: booth somehow getting hurt as well Keith Kachuk just a

455
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 3: three way parlay with Kachuk's getting hurt.

456
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 2: I don't know how we get hurt. Is he in

457
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 2: the booth? No, I've just meant he's probably in the

458
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 2: press box or something like that.

459
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: I thought he was doing media because everybody else is

460
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: like a box seat for the players.

461
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 2: We got to get to this Tom that McKenna's story

462
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 2: is crazy.

463
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 1: The kid at Penn State he broke a guy's jaw

464
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 1: outside a bar after the guy reportedly insulted McKenna's mom.

465
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: Now we actually have a sound bite of that from

466
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: a street camera. This is this is immediately before the fight.

467
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 2: The wonder somebody calls my mama or is she that

468
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 2: sounds familiar? Uh? Tom, I get it.

469
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: If indeed his mom wasn't Selta, but nonetheless got to

470
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 1: walk away just like DK Metcalf should have.

471
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 3: That's exactly where I land on this. I mean, when

472
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 3: you call his mother a whore, you're opening yourself up?

473
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 1: Is that what it was at the exact first That's

474
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: what is being reported that he called his mother a whore. Yeah,

475
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: like you heard it happened in the bar. They threw

476
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: the guy out and the guy waited outside. But mind,

477
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,440
Speaker 1: why weren't Why didn't Penn State have like security with

478
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: exactly can you do that? It's you know, it's after

479
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: a game. You know, the players go their own ways.

480
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: I'm not sure all of them were in the same place.

481
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 2: Maybe they were. Maybe he was a private party. I

482
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 2: just want more information about it, like and and now

483
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 2: that I think about it, I would bet it was

484
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,439
Speaker 2: a party for the players and their family's there and listen, like,

485
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 2: it doesn't have to be like Penn again, hod that

486
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 2: guy get in in the first place, doesn't.

487
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,959
Speaker 3: Have to be a Penn State security situation at all?

488
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:53,679
Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe one section of the bar was

489
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 3: closed down. But you'd think everybody knows what McKenna is

490
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 3: a Penn state.

491
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 2: You'd think that someone in that bar would have stepped

492
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 2: up and just been like, you gotta walk away or

493
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 2: told that other time blunt.

494
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: And this may or may not have happened years ago

495
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: at Club Eotic and mcke's rocks with someone who's giving

496
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: me a hard time. The guy who's giving me a

497
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: hard time persisted, I just could have happened. I forget,

498
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: I don't remember, probably not, and uh, the bonxers escorted

499
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,400
Speaker 1: him outside and is a favorite customer of the club.

500
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 1: They made sure he was in no position to give

501
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 1: me a hard time if I did leave and he.

502
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 2: Was still there. Yeah, that's the part that they did wrong.

503
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 3: They escorted him outside, and then they forgot that he

504
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 3: could just be literally milling around outside the bar. For

505
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 3: when McKenna and his mom walk out of the bar

506
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 3: and just continued to harass them, they just got to

507
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 3: I also don't understand how Nobles.

508
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: When guy when I left Club Erotica, the guy was

509
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 1: milling around outside, but.

510
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 2: They made sure that he wasn't gonna come near you, right, like.

511
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: No, he was nearly unconscious up against the dumpster, but

512
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: as fine that Tom, that's just a story.

513
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 2: Who knows Scott Hall may have been near to Barry Saturn.

514
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 3: What I just don't understand how no one could have

515
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 3: been the cooler head there too, Gavin and like gotten

516
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 3: in his face and been like, you just need to

517
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 3: walk away, budd.

518
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 2: He could have been after a house show in John's

519
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 2: time that night, could have.

520
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: Been no, no, I mean, yeah, he's gotta walk away.

521
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 2: But but I get it.

522
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: I mean, if somebody like would have been like, I

523
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: mean as close as as my mom and I were,

524
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, uh. But but here's here's the

525
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 1: funny part. This will help him in the NHL Draft

526
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: one hundred. The only question mark about McKenna with NHL

527
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: teams is he tough enough? Because he never had to

528
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 1: be you know, protected in junior you know, nobody, nobody

529
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 1: fights it in college hockey. So the question mark was

530
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: his toughness. And he just knocked a guy out in

531
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,880
Speaker 1: a street fight. Okay, that not only doesn't hurt him,

532
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 1: it helps him. He's gonna go number one overall now

533
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: for sure. And I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding. This

534
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: absolutely helps.

535
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 3: You're right, even if hockey wasn't about that, you know, macho, Like, yeah,

536
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 3: he's super tough. Way to knock that guy out. That

537
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 3: helped hep you. He'd still go number one overall because

538
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 3: he's just such an immense talent. And as the details

539
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 3: to the story come out, it really seems like, yeah,

540
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 3: he made a mistake as an eighteen year old kid,

541
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 3: but nothing super great. He's like, I don't look at

542
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 3: him as like a total bad guy now, and he

543
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 3: could have committed a lot of other crimes that you're

544
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 3: just like, oh, this kid's a creep.

545
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,120
Speaker 2: This ain't even close to that.

546
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 3: It paints him in an honorable light, even though I disagree.

547
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 3: You shouldn't just go punching somebody in the jaw. Also,

548
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 3: he's this kid from the Yukon mark like, this might

549
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:25,879
Speaker 3: be the first time he's ever heard somebody insult his

550
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 3: mother to his face.

551
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 2: He might have just snapped. I would hope that mothers

552
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 2: in general aren't getting insulted. Leave the mothers out of this, yeah, right, right, right?

553
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: What will Ferrell leave the moms and the sisters in

554
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: the porking out of this?

555
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

556
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: And McKenna like he has thirty two points and twenty

557
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: four games at Penn State. Yeah, as a guy who

558
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 1: just turned eighteen. Just think if this would have happened,

559
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: Like when did he turn eighteen? He turned eighteen on

560
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: December twentieth. If this would have happened in the first

561
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: half of Penn State season, he would have got to Juvie,

562
00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: think about that.

563
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 2: That's wild to think about.

564
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 1: But like in junior's he had a buck twenty nine

565
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 1: and fifty six games, like like over two points a

566
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: game last year, and some people don't understand that that

567
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: Division one college hockey's much tougher against older players, and

568
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: he's doing just great.

569
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the thing he had to prove to the

570
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 3: NHL about his toughness, Like that was the main reason

571
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 3: to go to Penn State. Not to get into bar

572
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 3: fights and knock some dude out, but to play against

573
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 3: twenty two year old men and show that I can

574
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 3: do this.

575
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: And everybody I know and d Rizzo, my buddy, the

576
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: most famous resident of Greenfield, you know, who works with

577
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: Pat Prosson, Sid's agent. They represent McKenna two, and Sid says,

578
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: Gavin's a great guy and like somebody just tweeted, what

579
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 1: texted me one of my friends giving me a hard time?

580
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 1: What's the difference between you know, McKenna, Why are you

581
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: defending McKenna and not DK Metcalf And well, okay, I'm

582
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 1: not defending McKenna. I said he should have walked away. Yeah,

583
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: but McKenna is a good guy and DK Metcalf isn't.

584
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 1: And that cues the accusations of racism. Come and get some.

585
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 4: Tonight's the Pens go head to head against the Sabers.

586
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 4: Game time is seven. Our coverage starts at six here

587
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 4: every game and the best coverage right here on your

588
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 4: home of the Pens one O five nine d X.

589
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 1: Super Bowl sixty deserves a sports book built for the moment.

590
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 2: We're just down the mark MEDDX.

591
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: Tom Uh, how would you say the experiment? My catchphrase

592
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: has been working, Come and get some.

593
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 3: I think it's fantastic. But I am a huge Dana

594
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 3: Carvey fan and a fan of comedians, so I.

595
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 2: Gonna try come and get some. Is that good? It's good? Yeah,

596
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 2: come and get some. Don't get he like goes a

597
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 2: quick one too, sometimes just a real quick one.

598
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: Can't like a quick hit joke? Almost if Dana Carvey

599
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: found out about this. Don't you think he would say

600
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 1: all the stuff I've done in you stole Red red

601
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: NECKI the red Neck Comedian, which I think he's only

602
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 1: done the one time on The Conan Show on DBS.

603
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing.

604
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 3: It wasn't even like an SNL character or an actual

605
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 3: stand up bit. It was just really a throwaway guest

606
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 3: appearance on show. I think he would respect it, though,

607
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 3: that we're latching onto red red Necky. I think if

608
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 3: I do T shirts he'll want he won't want to

609
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 3: cut cuss. Yeah, for sure.

610
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: Hey, you brought up a good point during the break.

611
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: The New York range is their third bottom in the

612
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,959
Speaker 1: NHL standings. There's a lottery. Would the NHL fix that

613
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: lottery to get McKenna to New York.

614
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 3: I'm not saying that they would, but I'm also not

615
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 3: saying that they would. And I mean you look at the.

616
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm saying they definitely would. They definitely would.

617
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 1: I mean if they if they were ever going to

618
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 1: do it, Like I'm convinced the NBA did the Cold

619
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: Frozen envelope and get Patrick Ewing to the Knicks. For sure,

620
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: the NHL desperately needs somebody of that ilk in the

621
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 1: biggest market possible.

622
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:57,920
Speaker 3: They they need it absolutely, And you look at the

623
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 3: teams that are around the Rangers at the bottom. He

624
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 3: could be a Canuck, he could be a Saint Louis Blue,

625
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 3: a Calgary Flame of Winnipeg Jet. I mean, those last

626
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,160
Speaker 3: two are just toxic for the NHL. That's just another

627
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 3: McDavid situation. New York just makes a ton of sense.

628
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 3: If if they finished bottom three, even you know, second

629
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,360
Speaker 3: from bottom, how does the league not take that opportunity?

630
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, but is that a team headed in a good direction?

631
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 3: But it would be with him, That's the thing, no

632
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,439
Speaker 3: matter what, it would just be the jolt that they

633
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 3: would need.

634
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Sully coaching, I mean, I mean, I'm in

635
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: bench mckenneth for veterans for a couple of years.

636
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 2: But ease him into it. Put him in the miners

637
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 2: for a little bit.

638
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 1: You know what Sully said to you the other night,

639
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: the other day, the Saturday, yes, Saturday afternoon, for the reunion.

640
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: He goes, he goes up, he goes. Madden says, I

641
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: know he used my because men thinks I never played

642
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: young players. He goes, but he goes, we didn't have

643
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: young players back then. Well, sure you did, you didn't

644
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 1: play him.

645
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 3: I do see kind of what he's saying, though, a

646
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,239
Speaker 3: little bit like the quality of younger players now are

647
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 3: a lot better that du Missus put to.

648
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,679
Speaker 1: The biggest defense of Sully is that Muses gravitated to

649
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: the veterans once he got the smell of the playoffs, and.

650
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 2: His nost very true too. That's very true too.

651
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 3: It's weird like the cupboard is fuller now for younger

652
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 3: guys to use and still not kind of going that

653
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 3: way except for Kendall, who's just fool proof.

654
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: Today's shows all over the place. But that's good. And

655
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 1: in that vein we go back a callback to Trek Scuoble.

656
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 1: He has won his arbitration. The Tigers offered nineteen mil,

657
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: but is either or SCOOBAA wanted thirty two mil, representative

658
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: of course by Scott.

659
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 2: Boris, the Uber agent, and he got the thirty two mil. Now.

660
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: I think Detroit will keep them, I mean for this

661
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: year anyway. I just think they're going to be so good.

662
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: By the trade deadline, they'll probably be in first place.

663
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,239
Speaker 1: It would be such a tough look to move him.

664
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: How good in Valdez is though he's not been great

665
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 1: for Fears, he was what was his e R last

666
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: year three point six.

667
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 3: He's still pretty damn good. And they won the division

668
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 3: last year, and now they're adding Framer Valdez. I just

669
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 3: think they're a really good team.

670
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,719
Speaker 1: And against teams with righty lineups, they'll just that rotation,

671
00:28:58,760 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: will just stick it up there.

672
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 2: Excuse me, lefty lineups. That's two out of three out one.

673
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: Scooble, Yeah, how much do you think Skeens will get

674
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: when he goes arbitration?

675
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 3: He'll put in probably like thirty five thirty six, don't

676
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 3: you think?

677
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: Okay, we should we should clarify. Scooble got thirty two

678
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: mil in this his third year of arbitration.

679
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if that matters.

680
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 1: Sodo got the crazy number, I think in his first

681
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: year of arbitration. But but will they give Skeens the

682
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: Schooble payday? In Skeens his first year of arbitration.

683
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 3: Schooble's a two time cy Young winner. I think Skeens

684
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 3: will probably be a two times thy Young winner too.

685
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 3: Go away to project up, but maybe predict that he

686
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 3: probably wins it. This year, He's definitely the favorite in

687
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 3: the end now to win it this year. They really

688
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 3: want to take his youth into account right when it

689
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 3: comes to an arbitration panel, like it's just for that

690
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 3: one year, or would they I don't know.

691
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: I'd you like to be Sharington enough to argue against

692
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 1: Scoop with the arbitration hearing skeens, I mean, oh my gosh,

693
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: pointing out his shortcomings.

694
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 2: Like that famous Sean Casey story that he tells I

695
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 2: just yet the Reds just dumped them. Yeah, Casey wanted

696
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,479
Speaker 2: to kill the Reds GM Bob and I think it

697
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 2: was then because they came out with a big smile

698
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 2: like we got your case.

699
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying, this fat guy he can't run, and case

700
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: He's like you. And then and then case goes we

701
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 1: gotta get him on to tell that story again, because

702
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 1: then he goes about like two minutes in.

703
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 2: I'm thinking, Wow, maybe they're right I suck. Maybe maybe

704
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 2: I sucked.

705
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 3: Sherrington's gotta be like, look at this Casey win that

706
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 3: I think he did. I think he did win it.

707
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 3: Sherrington would be like, Hey, look at this guy. Do you

708
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 3: see him throw a hundred miles per hour. His arm

709
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 3: is gonna explode any minute.

710
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:26,719
Speaker 4: Now.

711
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 2: You can't give this guy a ton of money? Are

712
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: you kidding me? We gotta get Case.

713
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: You want to tell the arbitration this time of year too, Yeah,

714
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: it just did that. That's the one Well. Case can

715
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: tell stories again and again and they're always good. But

716
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: that story is tremendous.

717
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 3: That story and him getting thrown out from right field

718
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 3: are all time, all time stories.

719
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: Only because I retweet the video every time somebody posts it.

720
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 2: I thought the short stop had it. Hey, here's something.

721
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 1: We got a sound bite later from Chris Long of

722
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: NBC that I think is interesting. He thinks that Rogers

723
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: will go to Minnesota if Minnesota wants them.

724
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 2: I totally agree with that.

725
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 1: I think that's a better receiving corps, it's a better everything,

726
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: it's a chance to win. I don't think Minnesota would

727
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: or should want him, But what if Justin Jefferson puts

728
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: his two cents in and doesn't want to wait around

729
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: for JJ McCarthy to get as good as he needs

730
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: to be.

731
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 3: Plus with the GM being out in Minnesota now, there

732
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 3: were some reports I saw come out where Kevin O'Connell

733
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 3: wasn't all on JJ McCarthy, and that was more like

734
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 3: the GM pool in those strings, saying like, we gotta

735
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 3: go with JJ. He's the first round pick. O'Connell wasn't

736
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 3: down on him, but just was big on it. He's

737
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 3: not ready yet, like we're not ready to give him

738
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 3: the reins.

739
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: So I think from what I read, I think O'Connell

740
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: wanted to franchise Donald and go with that again and

741
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: keep the it's only one year, it's only kicking the

742
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: can one year down the road for young quarterback.

743
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 2: I don't think that would have been a preposterous notation.

744
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 3: He's Kevin O'Connell from all counts, is a great quarterbacks coach,

745
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 3: great developer of that talent. He recognized McCarthy's not ready,

746
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 3: the GM didn't listen to him. Now that GM's out

747
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 3: of the equation, I don't know if macart he's ready yet.

748
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: How do you think Jefferson and Jordan Addison would feel

749
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,959
Speaker 1: about another year with McCarthy Addison still, you know what's

750
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: funny Adison does is that much room of talk, right,

751
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: But Jefferson's the best receivers.

752
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 2: He has a lot of rear Here's.

753
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 1: The thing about Jefferson, though I thought he was older

754
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: than he is. He's been so good so long. I

755
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: thought he was like thirty. He's only twenty six. Unbelievable,

756
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: so he can kind of wait not too long. But

757
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: on McCarthy and McCarthy has a much live or arm, Yeah,

758
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 1: he does. And Jefferson it ain't. It ain't the Rogers

759
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: of green Bay that would be throwing, you know, moon

760
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 1: balls for Jefferson to go get.

761
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 3: And I've always viewed Jefferson as kind of a Larry Fitzgerald.

762
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 3: It really doesn't matter who's throwing him the football. He'll

763
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 3: get his stats, and we know that's what receivers really

764
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 3: care about. It is getting a thousand yards, getting one

765
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 3: hundred catches.

766
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: But make no mistake, I mean you agree Rodgers total Mercenariyo,

767
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 1: he'll go to the Vikings, Yes, if they want him.

768
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 2: Better receivers, better tight end, better line, better coach. You

769
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 2: know what his excuse would be?

770
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: Well, I like Big Mike, but I really only want

771
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: to play for coach TA. Maybe the Vikings can can

772
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: hire coach T to be like the assistant to the

773
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:06,719
Speaker 1: assistant general manager.

774
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 2: You think he would come and coach coach T.

775
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 3: No, b I would be the assistant to the assistant

776
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 3: general manager right the front office.

777
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: So exactly exactly again, biting my tongue on a joke,

778
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:16,880

00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 3: movies where someone just rocks someone in the face, just

789
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 3: a total punch to the face.

790
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 2: Number three.

791
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 3: You don't like this movie, so I'll flip this in

794
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: I don't just like I thought you hated Back to

795
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: the Future the second one, you know, except for the

796
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: Pleasure Palace of course.

797
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 2: The first one's okay, but.

798
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 3: That punch iconic and winding up and boom punches Biff

799
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 3: so hard that he spins around like a cartoon. Top

800
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 3: Number two Mike Tyson in the Hangover punching Zach Alfanakus.

801
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 3: After this singing, Phil Collins just boom right to the face.

802
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,879
Speaker 2: I mean, Mike, you still got it. But I think

803
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 2: the number one punch. And I watched this while I

804
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 2: was researching these before the show Drago on Apollo in

805
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 2: Rocky four where they kind of stand them up before

806
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,839
Speaker 2: that last left hook that actually kills him.

807
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: That is earth shattering. It comes through your screen every

808
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: time you watch it. I'll tell you when you left off.

809
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 1: That might be number one. Yeah, go ahead, Uh Friday's

810
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: Debo getting just rocked by Debo.

811
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a pretty good one. Yeah, I mean those

812
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 2: are all good, you know what?

813
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 3: As another one that I was thinking of and dumb

814
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 3: and Dumber when that guy's bothering I forget what the

815
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 3: actor's name is, but the gangster that's with them, that's

816
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,959
Speaker 3: riding with them and he's talking to oh right, Charles

817
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 3: Rockett on the show.

818
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 2: The guy who takes his hard pills.

819
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 3: In the Yeah, and the guys bothering him in the

820
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 3: phone booth, and he just punches through the glass and

821
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 3: knocks him out cold.

822
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 2: He's like, sorry about that, Please go ahead.

823
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: Trifecta brought to us by Danny's Pets and Hogies Up.

824
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 1: Tom we talked a moment ago. How Chris Long and

825
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: we'll play that song later thinks Aaron Rodgers might wind

826
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: up with the Vikings. That's not what he said. He

827
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: said it's a possibility. He said he could see it happening,

828
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 1: and I could. Would the local reaction here be if

829
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: that happens betrayal?

830
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 3: Right, they would feel like Aaron Rodgers double cross them,

831
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 3: betrayed them.

832
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: Which would just demonstrate they never understood what Aaron Rodgers

833
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,360
Speaker 1: was all about in the first place. Aaron Rodgers, you

834
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:40,919
Speaker 1: know what main character syndrome is. Yeah, Aaron Rodgers thinks

835
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: he's the main character in a movie about his life

836
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,360
Speaker 1: and everybody else is at best an extra.

837
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 3: Rogers will say too, like I love Pittsburgh, right, but

838
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 3: it was all about Mike Tomlin, right, Like when he

839
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 3: put it on Tomlin, he'd be like, I would have

840
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 3: come back if Mike t was back.

841
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 2: But I love McCarthy.

842
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: But I think when he talked about how you know

843
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: he came here to play for Mike tom when he

844
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,080
Speaker 1: was setting up a potential exit stra.

845
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 3: And then McCarthy gets to be the head coach and

846
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 3: they bring back Tom Arth and they're kind of insulating

847
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 3: a lot of staff members to bring Rogers back.

848
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 2: He's probably like, crap, they really want me.

849
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: Well, I do think that they brought McCarthy in, you know,

850
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: for one reason. Is just one reason, is to try

851
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: to retain Rogers.

852
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 2: For this year. Yeah, but I think they were going

853
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 2: to bring him in no matter what, and this is

854
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 2: their best route. I think they decided very early.

855
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: Well, look, they only interviewed the two token men of

856
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: color to satisfy the Rooney rule. I think that's one

857
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 1: story that will never get play in Pittsburgh, but it should.

858
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 2: It should could play everywhere. The Floras and Weaver interviewed

859
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 2: the Rooney's.

860
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 1: Oakie doped their own rule, you know what I mean,

861
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 1: They did the minimal to satisfy their own rule. They

862
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: reduced their own rule with their dad came up with

863
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: what Art's dad came up with the token.

864
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 3: Iss And they didn't even have to do that because

865
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy one going anywhere. You could have interviewed Schula,

866
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 3: you could have interviewed Shielhouse. You could have interviewed a

867
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 3: ton of people to cover your cast that way, even

868
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 3: though well Sheaas is a man of color. But the

869
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 3: third one sprang out a.

870
00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 2: Bunch of interviews. But look, but it just looked the

871
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 2: way he did it.

872
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: We interviewed two black guys to Choky Doak, and now

873
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 1: we're hiring the big fat white guy from Greenfield.

874
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 2: Run the shifter and tell him now we got our

875
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 2: due diligence done.

876
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: I mean, anybody doesn't think that looked bad, just doesn't

877
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: want it to look bad, which is why nobody thinks

878
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: it looks bad.

879
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 2: Come and get some
