1
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 1: W Pittsburgh, an iHeart radio station, guaranteed human.

2
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

3
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 3: Like my dishwasher has like Wi Fi on it, which

4
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 3: is not something I've wanted. It just has it. And

5
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 3: it's like you can start your dishes when you're on

6
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 3: the I cannot imagine what practical application there is for

7
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 3: this other than oh I forgot to start the dishwasher.

8
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 3: I can do it now. But my god, how little

9
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 3: advantage are you gleaning from that? Well that's what we

10
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 3: always joke because we got a lower lamp. It's like

11
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 3: an LED lamp and we're reading through the booklet and

12
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 3: it says how to use the microphone function, and I'm like,

13
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 3: why does a lamp need a microphone? And so now

14
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 3: whenever we're talking about something politically sensitive, I just yell

15
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 3: out to the lamp.

16
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 2: I go, what do you think, lamp?

17
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 3: It's like the lamp moved closer and you didn't notice it.

18
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 2: Is that edging over training.

19
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: Like Brandy Bellman and the DV morning shows.

20
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 4: So the great news is we're all here this.

21
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 3: Morning, and I mean all of us, all of you listening,

22
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 3: all of us here in the studio.

23
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: We're all here. We met half the requirement isn't it great?

24
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 4: We all are here and guess who else is?

25
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 3: Corner Griffin and Paul skiing your Bucko's with a big

26
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 3: win last night. And I say big, even the it's

27
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 3: against five and six Padres team big for this reason,

28
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: Number one, Paul Skeens dialed in on a cold night

29
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 3: six and a third. He had six strikeouts last night,

30
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 3: only let up two hits, put two guys on with walks,

31
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 3: So real good night for Paul Skeens again dominating in

32
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 3: control the whole time. But the thing I love is

33
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 3: Connor Griffin goes two for four, scores a run last night,

34
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 3: knocks to in a big one late in the game

35
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 3: that I think is going to get the kid on track.

36
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 3: He was making contact all night. You know his batting

37
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 3: average isn't that great at this point, very early one

38
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 3: week into his career, not even one week into his career.

39
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 3: And now the speculation begins. Hey, remember all that celebrating

40
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 3: we were doing about Connor Griffin and how he's signed

41
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 3: for a long term now with the Buckos and we

42
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 3: never do anything like that, and what a point departure

43
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 3: this is. And we all celebrated, and then Jesus came

44
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 3: back and we ate chocolate and we had a great

45
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 3: weekend and we didn't think about it again. And then

46
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 3: it started to dawn on everybody, Wait a.

47
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 2: Minute, has he signed anything? Is this story?

48
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 5: Should we go back.

49
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 2: And look at what's going on? Did we overreact? I

50
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 2: think we did.

51
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 3: I think in all of our excitement, we forgot to

52
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 3: find out if he was okay with it. We didn't

53
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 3: get consent from Connor Griffin on this contract. We foisted

54
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: it upon him.

55
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, and so yeah, so unfortunately that might not be

56
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 6: the case.

57
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk with Noah Hailes.

58
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 3: From the Post is that a little bit later on

59
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 3: this morning, who will help us understand what's going on

60
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 3: with the contract, because I think there was a lot

61
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 3: of misinformation.

62
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: A lot of people just kind of thought like.

63
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, isn't it like April ninth has something to

64
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 3: do it, Like, yeah, he can't sign it till Labor ninth.

65
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 2: April ninth.

66
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 3: No, not true. That's not the case. He could sign

67
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 3: on whenever he wanted. They had to call him up

68
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 3: before April ninth, or they were gonna lose a draft

69
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: pick or something like that. Well, that's why we're gonna

70
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: have no on he'll describe everything that's going on.

71
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: With the Connor Griffin situation.

72
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 3: But your Bucco's seven and four now, another big win

73
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 3: for them last night, Cold night at panc Park. As

74
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 3: I mentioned, Phil Bourk also will be joining us talking

75
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 3: Bucos or I'm sorry, talking Penguinews as they look down

76
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 3: the barrel at Thursday Night against the Devil. Now, the

77
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 3: Devil's lost to the Flyers last night, and the Flyers

78
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 3: all of a sudden looking pretty good.

79
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 2: So now I'm a little bit nervous. Both teams are peaking.

80
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 3: Look, the Penguins are peaking too as they head down

81
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 3: the stretch.

82
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 2: But boy, that Flyer team is on fire. And that's

83
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 2: not how I.

84
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 3: Want this Penguin season to end, then is If that

85
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 3: weren't enough, I'd be like, big show right there? Well,

86
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 3: you know you got mister Wednesday coming up at six

87
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 3: forty five. Okay, that's must see radio right there. And

88
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 3: as if that weren't enough right there, you're calling the

89
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 3: Broadcast Hall of Fame right there. You're going, hey, this

90
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 3: needs to be inducted pre eminently, like.

91
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 2: That's right.

92
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 3: Well, we also got PFT commenter from Pardon My take

93
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 3: Barstool Sports superstar PFT commenter, And why is that significant today?

94
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 3: Oh well, maybe one of the biggest sports journalism scandals

95
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 3: in quite a long time in the NFL dropping yesterday

96
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 3: with secret pictures being released of athletic reporter Diana Russini,

97
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 3: who is a big friend of Pardon My Take and

98
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 3: PFT commenter, at a vacation resort in Sedona, Arizona, with

99
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 3: Patriots head coach Mike Rabel.

100
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 5: Oh.

101
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 2: Now that would be.

102
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 3: Newsworthy in and of itself, just because of their relative jobs.

103
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 4: But they're both married and.

104
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 3: Have recently talked about like how happy they are in

105
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 3: their marriage.

106
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah.

107
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,679
Speaker 3: Both of them denied that they were there having an affair.

108
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 3: They both said, oh, well, we were there with other people.

109
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 3: You just didn't see the other people.

110
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 2: And we didn't know.

111
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 4: That the other person was going to be there.

112
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 3: And now it looks like we were there together and

113
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 3: we weren't.

114
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 4: We just ran into each other. Big coincidence.

115
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 6: What's this picture? Because I didn't get to see this

116
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 6: scandal yesterday? What's the picture? It happened late last night.

117
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 6: You were probably sleeping already Page six New York Posts.

118
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 6: You can go check that out if you like.

119
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 3: Now, the one picture is them holding hands like oh.

120
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 3: The other one is them embracing in what looks like,

121
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 3: I don't know, not the best embrace.

122
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 2: It looks like an awkward hug.

123
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 3: And then there's a third one of them both laying

124
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 3: in a pool together, like next to each other, in

125
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 3: like pool loungers, you know, something like that. Now, this

126
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 3: is not the first time that she Diana Rossini has

127
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 3: been involved in a controversy of this sort. When she

128
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 3: was reporting on the Washington football team whatever they were

129
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 3: known as at the time, the wife of the general

130
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 3: manager responded to a report from then ESPN reporter Diana

131
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 3: Rossini in which she was revealing some information about the

132
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 3: Washington football team and said, I'm pretty sure ESPN got

133
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 3: this scoop from my husband's new side piece.

134
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 2: The wife of the general manager said that.

135
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 3: She then went on to apologize and said she should

136
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 3: have never brought that up, and that was just something

137
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 3: that you know, she regretted saying and there's no truth

138
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 3: to it. Diana deserve better, et cetera, et cetera. But

139
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 3: Jeanie was out of the toothpaste too at that point,

140
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 3: so now she finds herself embroiled once again in controversy.

141
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 3: Is she having an affair with Patriots head coach Mike Crable.

142
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 3: We'll ask PFT commenter one of her good friends all

143
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 3: about it. That won't be awkward for him at all. Wow,

144
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 3: that's coming up in the nine o'clock hour today.

145
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 6: The handholding photo does look like they're about to, like

146
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 6: whenever you're with a little kid in the yard, like

147
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 6: you're about to spin them and then let them like

148
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 6: let their feet leave the air so that you can

149
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 6: spin them around.

150
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 2: Like, hey, mommy, spin me. But the pool.

151
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 6: Photo and the hug is not uh oh wow, we

152
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 6: just found each other on vacation.

153
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 2: No, No, I don't think any of them more.

154
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 3: I think anytime you have a two handed handhold too,

155
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 3: it's a weird thing. Yeah, you're facing each other holding hands, and.

156
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 6: There's really no one in those photos and the big

157
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 6: zoom out of the hug, there's no one around, like

158
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 6: what mountains the mountains.

159
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 2: Of Yeah, right, so yeah, they're they're very alone. I

160
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 2: think that's the case.

161
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 3: So, now is that any different than Jay Glazer going

162
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 3: drinking and uh, you know, doing all the cavorting that

163
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: he does with all those guys. I mean, there's potentially

164
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 3: a romantic element to this, but I don't know if

165
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: it's any different from a impartiality standpoint than what all

166
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 3: these guys do. Is it any less respectable than what

167
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: Adam Schefter does to get news?

168
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 4: How does Scheff get his school? That's right.

169
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 3: I was on vakishing this past week with Seattle Seahawks

170
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 3: head coach.

171
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: Make me dumb. I was hiding in the hamper, and

172
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 2: exactly he does creepy stuff, I think. So.

173
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 3: So all kinds of fun stuff to talk about this morning,

174
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 3: and a reminder that Abby and myself will be a

Speaker 2: This, please do so.

192
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 3: I told you that that Mel Blunt hit me up,

193
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 3: which is again the biggest honor in the world that

194
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 3: Mel Blunt even has my telephone number or got it.

195
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 2: And this is for a roast.

196
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 3: He asked me to be a part of the roast

197
00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:00,439
Speaker 3: of Charlie Batch, which is going on next Friday, the Teeth.

198
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: And this is a week or so ago.

199
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 3: And if you get a text from Mel Blunt, you know,

200
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 3: mister Blunt, whatever you need, I.

201
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 2: Will be happy to be of service. So his wife

202
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 2: is kind of in charge of everything. Now.

203
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 3: I had been writing some stuff and getting ready because

204
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 3: Terry Bradshaw is the master of ceremonies.

205
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 2: All right, that's pretty cool.

206
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 3: So he's like the roast master and I'm thinking, oh,

207
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 3: I mean, what a ripe target Terry Bradshaw. So then

208
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 3: I've been trying to find out some more information about it.

209
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 3: So Missus Blunt calls me yesterday and I got to

210
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 3: talk to the lovely Missus Blunt and she informs me

211
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 3: of the other people who are going to be on

212
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 3: the dais because I'm like, you know, I gotta know

00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 3: myself like, oh man, I already got some jokes. She's like,

224

00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 3: to her, I'm like, oh, zing, zing zing, I'm thinking

229
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: God, these are easy target. Elevis is gonna be so fun.

230
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 3: And she's and I'm like, so, the thing I need

231
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 3: to know is what kind of tone do you want

232
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 3: me to strike? Is I am up there roasting Charlie

233
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 3: Batch and all of these legends in the Pittsburgh Steeler

234
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 3: pantheon and she's like, well, we'd like it to be

235
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 3: something that's a little uplifting.

236
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm sorry, Okay, when.

237
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 3: You say uplifting, you mean really insult the hell out

238
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 3: of them, right, And.

239
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 2: Let's just reframe what do you say uplifting?

240
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 6: Because, as we know, Charlie Batch the last time he

241
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 6: was roasted, UH, wasn't quite familiar with what that meant.

242
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 3: When we roasted Charlie Batch when we were doing the

243
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 3: DVE roasts, he said to Bill and I one morning, a,

244
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 3: you guys are gonna be too mean.

245
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 2: I and We're like look at each other, like, oh no, no,

246
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 2: Charlie doesn't know.

247
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 7: What a roast is.

248
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 3: And all of his family's going to be there, yeah,

249
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 3: And they were and it was bad, and I was

250
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 3: very I did what you do at roasts, and Charlie's

251
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 3: entire like all of his aunts and his grandmother were

252
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 3: sitting at the front table, and they wanted to murder me.

253
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 3: I had to apologize to them. At the end of

254
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 3: the night, they accepted my apology. I mean, I was

255
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 3: making people.

256
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 2: Laugh, just that, not that table.

257
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 3: It wasn't like it didn't go over and then but

258
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 3: they hated everybody, not just mine, just so they couldn't

259
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 3: believe that people were saying mean things about Charlie's. Yeah, so,

260
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 3: as it turns out, this is not quite one of

261
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 3: those roasts.

262
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 4: So I had to retract my claws yesterday.

263
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 3: And it's not fair that I would be able to

264
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,479
Speaker 3: go in there and slang arrows at these guys anyways,

265
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 3: because what are they gonna They don't you know, John

266
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 3: Stalworth doesn't know who I am. It doesn't matter. I've

267
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 3: been here as long as I have. He he doesn't

268
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 3: live here. Some leeway to jokes Terry's we've had on

269
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 3: the show many times through the years, not enough for

270
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 3: my liking. As far as I'm concerned, I wish you'd

271
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 3: call in every week. I wish you would come back

272
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 3: to Pittsburgh every week. But you know, and Joey Porter,

273
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 3: you know, I mean, we know Joe so that that's

274
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 3: not that big of a deal. Some of those other guys, though,

275
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 3: I got no and I think I'm just gonna make.

276
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 2: It about that that I shouldn't be there, you.

277
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 3: Know what I mean, Like these are all these all

278
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 3: time greats and I'll just do a quick thing, and

279
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 3: they really do actually want to celebrate Charlie, which I

280
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 3: can easily do because you know what a fan I

281
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 3: am of Charlie and you and I spent time rapping

282
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 3: presents this past Christmas right at the Batch Foundation and

283
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 3: it was I mean, it's first of all.

284
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 2: I hope you agree with me.

285
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 3: We're doing that every year a thousand and we're going

286
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 3: to take more people with us each year and make

287
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 3: it more and more of it, like a DVE takeover day.

288
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 6: Couldn't believe the facility that they have and how many

289
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 6: resources that I think that's really undercovered in terms of

290
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 6: people understanding how many different elements of the foundation are

291
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 6: going towards the kids being able to access studio spaces,

292
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 6: learning spaces, spaces.

293
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 2: For comfort food programs.

294
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 6: There was a UPMC facility inside the Batch Foundation location

295
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 6: that we were at, like in addition to the toy drive,

296
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 6: so there were just so many elements that were outreaching

297
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 6: to the community that I did not expect that facility

298
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 6: to look like that.

299
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 2: No, it's incredible.

300
00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 3: So I kind of have to do a little bit

301
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 3: of a pivot, which is fine.

302
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 2: It's fine if you do. This is what's great about

303
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 2: a good roast.

304
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 6: And you know, even thinking about the Nicky Glazer things

305
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 6: that were successful or other roasts that are enjoyable, and

306
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 6: Billy Gardell would always say this, there always has to.

307
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: Be that element of love.

308
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 6: And you love the Steelers, and even as you're talking

309
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 6: about getting ready for.

310
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 2: It, you revere these.

311
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 6: Players enough that you can do the jokes, and then

312
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 6: you got to wrap it up in that bow.

313
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 2: That lets you know how much you love them. Can

314
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 2: I let to make fun of Pompey and his hair dye?

315
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 6: I think anytime you don't know what to do, you

316
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 6: turn the gun on pump and you're gonna be good.

317
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: Oh nice, the furniture matches. It's the same color wallnut.

318
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 8: Can.

319
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 3: I love pomp so much? He's I mean, if they

320
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 3: ever wrote to him, I would do the same thing

321
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 3: because he's one of my all time favorite people. I roll,

322
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 3: I know, I am full on just get to roast

323
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 3: Terry Bradshaw in the softest PG way.

324
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 2: That's kind of what I think I'm gonna do.

325
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do this like like love letter to the

326
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 3: Batch Foundation and what Charlie does talking to all the

327
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 3: drunks on the postgame show here on DVE and just

328
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 3: couch it all in soft landing jokes about Terry. You go,

329
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 3: that's my that's my strategy going into it. I think

330
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:25,360
Speaker 3: I think it'll work.

331
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 8: I do.

332
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 2: I was watching that clip yesterday. You heard me listening

333
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 2: to Terry Bradshaw sing like an angel? Yes, well, that

334
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 2: was the first joke I thought of. Is that trying?

335
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 3: You know how hard it is to roast Charlie Batch,

336
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 3: because something like trying to come up with something mean

337
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 3: about Charlie is like trying to come up with something

338
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 3: nice to say about Terry's country music career.

339
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 2: I think he has a great voice. He actually doesn't

340
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 2: have a bad voice. He really doesn't have a bad voice.

341
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 5: Well, it was either that.

342
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 3: Or make fun of his two pay, and I think

343
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 3: the two pay would have been bad. You know's I

344
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 3: might ask him what happened?

345
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 2: You're already ready?

346
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 3: You had such a lovely head of hair, what happened anyways,

347
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 3: Michael being here just a little bit to talk about

348
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 3: last night's Bucko win over the San Diego Padres Connor Griffin,

349
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 3: a couple of hits as I said, and Paul Skeens

350
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 3: does Paul Skeen's Things, and a look ahead at what

351
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 3: might be facing the Pittsburgh Penguins in the postseason as

352
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 3: the Flyers get another big win last night.

353
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 9: We don't know how to make the music, We just

354
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 9: know how to make it last longer.

355
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,000

Speaker 3: And he is not romantically linked to any member of

376
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Pirates, Pittsburgh Penguins, or any other of the

377
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 3: teams he's about to report on.

378
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: Although no comment on the porter of Mark Tungue.

379
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 12: You're starting to fall in love already, did oh man?

380
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 3: I hate that the Flyers are on the come up here.

381
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 3: This is driving me. It does make for an extra

382
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,679
Speaker 3: added element of injury in the postseason, to the point

383
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 3: a battle. And that's that's not something anybody saw a

384
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 3: month and a half ago.

385
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 12: And it's not something anybody saw for either team at

386
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 12: the start of the season.

387
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 2: That's true.

388
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 12: They've basically done since the Olympic break what the Penguins

389
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,719
Speaker 12: did all year, which is far exceed expectations and actually

390
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 12: looked like a pretty good hockey team. Way more often

391
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 12: than not. We'll get to that in a minute. Sports

392
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 12: Is are brought to you by Bridgewell.

393
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 2: Apply.

394
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 12: It's got to lead with the Buccos this morning, Randall,

395
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 12: because uh see, if you can envision.

396
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 2: This happening again and again and again, as.

397
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 12: The Pirates move forward, Paul Skis pitches really well, condor

398
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 12: gif Griffin gets.

399
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 2: A couple of aids and they win a game over

400
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 2: a good team.

401
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,120
Speaker 3: I just I can see ten years of this if

402
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 3: we can sign either one of them or four or three,

403
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 3: and then half start with this one.

404
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 2: We'll start with we do have this twenty twenty six. Yeah,

405
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:00,680
Speaker 2: see where it goes?

406
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 12: Seven to one bucks last night it was a pictures

407
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 12: tool between Skeens and Nick Pavetta. But the Pirates couple

408
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 12: together a couple of runs in the fifth inning and

409
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 12: then break it open late with a five run eighth.

410
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 12: Paul Skeins took a no hitter into the sixth. He

411
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 12: ended up giving up a solo home run to Xander Bogart's,

412
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 12: one of two hits allowed by Skiings on the night.

413
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 12: Two walks, six strikeouts, eighty seven pitches, fifty three of

414
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 12: them for strikes. Griffin went two for four with a

415
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 12: run scored and two RBIs got the batting average up

416
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 12: to one to seventy six.

417
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 3: He's making contact even when he doesn't get a base hit,

418
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 3: though the pitching is not too much for him defensively,

419
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 3: this kid is insane. And also because he had another

420
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 3: last night. I mean it's like every night he has

421
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 3: a web gem and then no.

422
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 12: By the way, that's pretty important to have a shortstop

423
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 12: that can do that. Oh, he's making plays.

424
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 3: Not a lot of short stops in the league, mate,

425
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 3: and certainly none that played for the Pirates would make.

426
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 2: He scored from first.

427
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 3: It had to be one of the quickest first to

428
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 3: homes of the year.

429
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 5: Yep.

430
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 3: He's got Clydesdale like speed out there on the base pack,

431
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 3: and he looks like he's just massive thoroughbred.

432
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:16,719
Speaker 2: Thoroughbred.

433
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, Clydesdale are not plotting. That's more like Ozo. They

434
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 3: haul crap. Okay, he looks like at Clydesdale, he runs

435
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 3: like a thoroughbread. My point is enough horsing around Connor Griffin,

436
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 3: sign your contract. I don't think that's gonna happen.

437
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 2: You know. I don't know if he has a nickname

438
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 2: or not.

439
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 12: It should be eye test because you know the old

440
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 12: school eye test. You watch this guy for five minutes

441
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 12: and that's a play. That's what it's supposed to look like,

442
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 12: which is why I think it's funny. Like Madden was

443
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 12: saying yesterday, like what if Connor Griffin never hits.

444
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 3: It's like, dude, if you're watching the games, you know

445
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 3: that's not what's going on here. He's already hitting, it's

446
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 3: just not getting through the infield.

447
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 2: There are rare players.

448
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 12: Rational gets thrown around a lot, probably too much, but

449
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 12: Skenes and Griffin are are that guy, Like if you

450
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 12: can't have better than that, if Griffin looked like Ozona

451
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 12: at the plate, then maybe that's a discussion we have.

452
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 3: But to your original point here, these are two superstars

453
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 3: that the Pirates have, like elite MLB players.

454
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 2: I mean, we're we're putting.

455
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 12: The Clidesdale a little bit before the beer wagon with

456
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 12: Griffin because he's just getting started. But it's a question

457
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 12: of when not if. This This is not Gregory Polanco,

458
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 12: this is not Henry d Henry Davis coming up as

459
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 12: the first overall pick, and oh he might be pretty good.

460
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 12: Like it's like, holy god, this guy's gonna be something.

461
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 12: I mean, I would go so far as to say

462
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 12: it's not even O'Neil Cruz, like.

463
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 3: Oh, because there's a little bit of jury still out

464
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 3: on his potential.

465
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's and the jury is, uh, it's gonna take.

466
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 2: Henry Fond the twelve Angry Men.

467
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 4: But point being, it's so fun to watch these games

468
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 4: right now.

469
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 12: Coincidentali had a little narrative about baseball in that movie.

470
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 2: He was the one juror had.

471
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 12: Baseball tickets in one of the quick verdicts, so they

472
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 12: could go watch the Yankees.

473
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 5: Oh that's right.

474
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 3: I forgot about that, or maybe it was a metsa

475
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 3: and I think it was the Yankees. It's spent a

476
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 3: long time since I seeing that one. But I'll tell

477
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:26,919
Speaker 3: you what, well, they had nine happy men on the

478
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 3: field last night. Yeah, ends up seven to one Pirates.

479
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 12: The series concludes this afternoon at PNC parts at least

480
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 12: the sun might be shining while you shiver twelve thirty five.

481
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 12: Mitch Keller for the Bucks, Michael King for the Pope.

482
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: Also, Mitch Keller is like that quiet story. It's just

483
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,959
Speaker 2: like their staff is really good. Yes it is.

484
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 12: Bullpen's not bad either. I think it all started this

485
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 12: off season with Greg Risoto, didn't it?

486
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 5: Yeah?

487
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 2: It was the first guy's like, hey, they signed a

488
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 2: real pitcher.

489
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 12: Like it wasn't a monster deal or anything, but it was. No,

490
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 12: he's a legit a better caliber of player than they

491
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 12: have been bringing in.

492
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 2: He had an inning last night, didn't he. Yeah? What

493
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: happened to Bob Nutting in the off season? I don't know.

494
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 2: Was he visited by uh the ghost of votership past.

495
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 2: I think it's just as simple.

496
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,679
Speaker 3: I think it's as simple as I could change a

497
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 3: potential lockout coming, we can keep coming with it. And

498
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 3: the finances, oh god.

499
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 8: You had to.

500
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 3: You had to invest this year to get back this year,

501
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 3: because if you went into a down year and got nothing,

502
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 3: you know, So he knew he had to at least

503
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 3: try this year from a financial standpoint whatever.

504
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 2: It's so there's so much fun.

505
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 3: I just love being able to turn them on and

506
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 3: being hopeful every night instead of waiting to see why

507
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 3: I'm disappointed in this team, And that's not what's happening.

508
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 2: It's glorious. The cones. I love him, keep stealing them.

509
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 2: It's the best thing.

510
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,239
Speaker 12: It's by the way, is that immunity for that like

511
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 12: if you get caught with pill The cop just said, look,

512
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 12: I know this is I know what you're doing, but

513
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 12: put him back.

514
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 3: I think still at the point where you're there's immunity,

515
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 3: But there's going to come a point in time where

516
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 3: somebody's gonna you know, they're gonna remove the road close

517
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 3: sign and the car is gonna go flying off a bridge,

518
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 3: you know, one of those things.

519
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 2: Uh, We're not quite there yet.

520
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:22,280

00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,600

Speaker 3: You know, as funny is they had the team pictures

549
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 3: and everybody's making a big deal about Sidney was taking

550
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 3: the chairs off the ice. You know, they're like, look

551
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 3: at sid He's helping move the chairs off the ice.

552
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 3: This guy team player topped to bottom and I'm like,

553
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 3: what if he's just like super o c D and

554
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 3: he's like I can't look at these out of here anymore,

555
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 3: like all the.

556
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 2: A little bit of that, yeah, yeah, the McDonald's thing.

557
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think a lot of the things that we're

558
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 3: attributing to him for being a great guy are because

559
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 3: he's a great guy. But I think a few of

560
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 3: them I got, he's just a little cuckoo. We're like,

561
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 3: look at him, he's crazy. He was probably like no, no, no,

562
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 3: that that chair can't be on the ice.

563
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 12: Last, but at least the Steelers began their off season

564
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 12: program yesterday. Uh, lifting of weights, thirty minute meetings, and

565
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 12: some on field stuff. Aaron Rodgers wasn't there, No coaches,

566
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 12: Aaron's not on a team. His wife was there though,

567
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 12: right I think I had ever seen he was there

568
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 12: A little it for schedule for Mike McCarthy this year,

569
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 12: they're going to do a voluntary mini camp April twentieth

570
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 12: to the twenty second, and then they're gonna have mandatory

571
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 12: mini camp June second to the fourth, and then three

572
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 12: more OTAs after that. Usually traditionally, mandatory camp was always

573
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 12: the last activity before training camp.

574
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 2: Boy, I'm looking forward to that just because it's so new.

575
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gonna be interesting to see how everything changes

576
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,959
Speaker 3: under Mike McCarthy and I think it's a welcome change.

577
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 2: And thanks for everything, Mike Tomlin.

578
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 3: To recap what we just talked about for months after

579
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 3: Tomlin's retiring.

580
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 12: Yeah, well, I think there's a narrative that they're going

581
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 12: to go to and seven and then lose.

582
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 2: You don't know, No, you don't know. On the way

583
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 2: for you, I do know.

584
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 3: Noah Hiles from the Postcasette will explain what's going on

585
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 3: with Connor Griffin and that contract that isn't signed yet

586
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 3: and whether he has to wait or something. I think

587
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 3: we've all been under a big misconception about what's going

588
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 3: on with Connor and the Pirates based on a report

589
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 3: that came out on Good Friday that got everybody or

590
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 3: on the Holy Thursday. I guess, I don't know why

591
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 3: I'm attaching it to that weekend. Uh, the holidays, I know,

592
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 3: but it's not like that's how everybody's delivered by Clysdale. Hey,

593
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 3: I'm just glad we're all here this morning. Mike, you

594
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, And uh, Phil Bork will join

595
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 3: us a day forty five talking.

596
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 12: The Clydesdale was skeptical that Griffin would sign the contract,

597
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 12: and Griffin looked at it and said, hey.

598
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 2: Why the long face PFT commenter.

599
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 3: Also, we'll ask him about his good friend Diana Rossini

600
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 3: and her connection with Mike Rabel.

601
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 4: I ask you, is it that much different than what

602
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 4: Jay Glazer does?

603
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 2: Mike? Is it that much different?

604
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 8: Uh?

605
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 5: No?

606
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 2: Is it appropriate? Either one?

607
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 3: No, that's what I'm saying. Both of them kind of

608
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 3: crossed the line, right, It's just one of them. But

609
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 3: I mean that's twenty years ago. There's no lines anymore. Yeah,

610
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 3: you're right, there's no standards and ethics in anything. You

611
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 3: just just roll, just through whatever the hell you want.

612
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 5: All right, we'll do that.

613
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 2: In the seven fove I'm driving my Semi Crossraandio Ohio

Speaker 3: This is the last I'm planting my balls after today. Yeah,

625
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 3: I think so changers.

626
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 2: That's risky. Think we're done with the frost.

627
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 3: Well, it was twenty seven degrees when I made my

628
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 3: way in this morning, twenty seven.

629
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 2: Now it's going up to like sixty sixty five.

630
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's nuts in a one day swing like that.

631
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 3: That Pirate's weekend, because I was downtown on Saturday night

632
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 3: at a show at the Arcade.

633
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 2: Went really well. It was a really fun show.

634
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 3: But I was there way early, like we were up

635
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 3: at my in laws for Easter, sort of pre Easter.

636
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 3: Coming back to the house, you know, after dinner, it

637
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 3: was like six o'clock. I'm like, well, I'm not gonna

638
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 3: go all the way back to the South Hills then

639
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 3: come back downtown. So I'm just gonna camp out downtown

640
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 3: and just take in the sites. There was a Penguins

641
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 3: game going on, there was the Pirates game going on.

642
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 3: It was warm outside. It was one of the great

643
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh walking around days I've been in in a long time.

644
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 3: I went and stood outside PNC Park. Didn't have a ticket.

645
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 3: I got down there right around the eighth inning. This

646
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 3: is the game that they wanted to walk off, and

647
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 3: I was I had my arms through the fence like

648
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 3: I was in Uzy Boy and that the fishing through

649
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 3: the hole, trying to like make my way in. I

650
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 3: stood like right when they hit the walk off. I

651
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: was right by the fireworks. I walked back over downtown

652
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 3: and went to kan Almut for one beer.

653
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 2: So I saw quarteent.

654
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 3: Going on and we're walking There's there's people all over

655
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 3: the place.

656
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 2: It was so fun. It was a phenomenal, phenomenal only.

657
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 3: You get an inordinate sense of civic pride when stuff

658
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 3: like that happens where you just you're like, this is

659
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 3: a real city.

660
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 2: Where can you get all this?

661
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 3: It's like, well, yeah, I mean the beauty of Pittsburgh

662
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 3: is that you get all the big city stuff with

663
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 3: the out having to deal with you know, the big

664
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 3: city traffic and the other perils of living in a

665
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 3: New York city, Chicago, Dallas, et cetera. Well, it is

666
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 3: funny too because you can tell where the draft epicenter

667
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 3: is and where they're cleaning up. Because over on the

668
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 3: north Shore, beautiful everything hunky dory, you go across the

669
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 3: bridge and you're on whatever whatever that Porto Kane Boulevard. Great,

670
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 3: they just did all the pavers right in front of

671
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 3: the bridge. Is everything all cleaned up. Then you get Penn.

672
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 3: Penn's still pretty good, pretty crowded, and you get the

673
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:13,240
Speaker 3: Liberty Liberty's Liberty is still a little little Marty.

674
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 2: Griffin's up there with a butterfly manh Yeah, that's true.

675
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, And then you get the Market Square You're like,

676
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 3: f this, I'm out of here.

677
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

678
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,439
Speaker 3: So so it's just it's just the ingradient you get

679
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 3: wilded on in Market Square, right, Yeah. Apparently they just

680
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 3: got done with the promenade that they were uh planning

681
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 3: on doing for so long, which the last time I

682
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 3: drove by it wasn't even close to being done on

683
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 3: the fourteen King Boulevard side.

684
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think that that's gonna look beautiful.

685
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 3: And I was wondering who who paid for all that,

686
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 3: because it's a lot of money, Like there's spent a

687
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 3: lot of money to make that look good, I know,

688
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 3: And it's it's sort of like this is just the

689
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 3: day and the age that we live in, where, you know,

690
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 3: I think the Mayor's office posted like, hey, you know,

691
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 3: look at these you know, uh you know uh side

692
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,959
Speaker 3: that we've redone all the sidewalks that everyone was always

693
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 3: complaining about, like right for the bridges, and someone like

694
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 3: he posted it they look incredible, and someone said the

695
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,479
Speaker 3: same thing like who, I guess we're having to pay

696
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 3: for that, And I'm like, you can't, Like he's trying

697
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 3: to do something nice here with the money.

698
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, that's but I know that they've had a

699
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 4: lot of.

700
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 3: Money come in from private business, like yeah, you know,

701
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 3: like UPMC is like, sorry, we haven't paid property taxes

702
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 3: in one hundred years. Yeah, here's a few million, here's

703
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 3: a pittance on the Yes, hundreds of millions.

704
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 2: We made them off of one prescription of you know what,

705
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 2: Gov or whatever exactly.

706
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,720
Speaker 3: Well, unless we delve into territory, that won't be terribly

707
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 3: fun to talk about. What else is cooking in your world?

708
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 8: There?

709
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear that that comedy show won't good

710
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:43,720
Speaker 2: on side. Yeah, that was really fun.

711
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 3: I took that fun and decided to not have fun

712
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 3: then at my house because I just started a bathroom

713
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 3: renovation with no plan, no forethought, no no planning whatsoever,

714
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 3: and so now we are down one bathroom. Because my

715
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 3: theory with remodeling is you just need to break it

716
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 3: first to give you some incentive to put it back together.

717
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 3: So I have a fully broken bathroom at this point.

718
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 3: So you've done this before, Yes.

719
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 2: I remember?

720
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 3: No plan house remodel. What was the first one? The

721
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 3: first one was a downstairs bathroom, same deal. I just

722
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 3: started ripping out the vanity and tearing drywall out.

723
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 2: My wife came home. It was like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

724
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 2: Like what are you doing?

725
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 3: I was like, well, you're always complaining about the bathroom

726
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 3: and everything.

727
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 2: I was like, I'll just started.

728
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 3: She's like, wait, like plumbers are like like six weeks out,

729
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 3: you know, ty, You know, if you order something, you're

730
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 3: not getting it the next day. Like, what's the plan here?

731
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 3: I was like, I don't have one. I'm just gonna

732
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 3: tear it up and swear a lot and we'll see

733
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 3: what happens. All right, So how'd the first one go?

734
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 3: First one was a slog but it turned out good.

735
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 3: But I also have a neighbor that does drywall, so

736
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 3: that was a absolute one percent saver. So I don't

737
00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 3: do any plumbing or electrical work myself like that I'll do.

738
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 3: But this one I don't have to do any of that.

739
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 3: I just like ripping stuff up. I could do a

740
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 3: little bit of toiework and uh. And so that's we're

741
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 3: just gonna see that. The kids are now having to

742
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 3: take showers and like they're they're taking like a horse

743
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 3: bath and the stationary top in the lawns. You know,

744
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 3: they're just doing their pits and their in their taints. Yeah,

745
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,839
Speaker 3: that's all you need. They're they're the middle school boys.

746
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 3: They smell bad. Anyway, Daddy's gonna teach you about a

747
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,439
Speaker 3: horse bad kids take a shot of whiskey right before.

748
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 3: All right, So YouTube is your friend on this stuff.

749
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 3: YouTube is your big time friend on this stuff. So

750
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 3: this is what I still have to do, which is

751
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 3: like the little daunting part. I got to get a

752
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 3: cast iron tub out of like a six by eight bathroom.

753
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,759
Speaker 2: So I don't know if you've heard tried to do that.

754
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 3: You can't. You can't. First of all, they weigh like

755
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 3: seven hundred and fifty pounds. It's one of those things

756
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 3: where you can't even believe that anybody got it in

757
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 3: in the first place at all. So you have to

758
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 3: either bust the thing up with a sledgehammer into like

759
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,720
Speaker 3: like it's like like with the legs.

760
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 4: No, all like old ceramic tubs are cast iron.

761
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 3: I didn't know that. I think they were just like

762
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 3: a porcelain or surround, but they're on They're on cast iron.

763
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 3: So you either have to get like a grind saw

764
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 3: and be showering your home with sparks, or you need

765
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 3: to bust it up with a sledgehammer. And so that's

766
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,399
Speaker 3: gonna be. I'm just gonna we should have a fan

767
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 3: duel or like one of those cashy things on how

768
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 3: many times I'm going to say the F word on

769
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 3: demolition day of the of the cast iron. I would

770
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 3: think that if you hit a cast iron tub with

771
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 3: a sledgehammer, be like in the cartoons when you hit

772
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 3: it and then the.

773
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 4: Body just vibrates, it.

774
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 2: Is going to be.

775
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 3: It's like when you hit like a if you're in

776
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 3: Little League and you just hit one right off the

777
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 3: not sweet spot and your hands hurt for like five

778
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 3: days afterwards, that's definitely gonna happen.

779
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 2: Why did you want to do this?

780
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:51,320
Speaker 3: You're doing okay becauseid someone?

Speaker 2: No, No, you can't. A lot of remodeling.

782
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 3: Now, if you've ever got a quote for remodeling, it's basically,

783
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 3: if you want to get your bathroom redone, it's like

784
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 3: how much you pay ad for your house? Initially yes,

785
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:03,879
Speaker 3: so I'm just because they don't need to work, right,

786
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 3: so they just af you price. And I live in

787
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 3: a kind of a you know, not a nice neighborhood,

788
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 3: but nice enough where you don't get any you get

789
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 3: the reverse discount, you get the old you know, the

790
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 3: Mount Lebanon reverse discount, the.

791
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 2: Ad for you to go on.

792
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 5: No.

793
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 3: No, But also this is just you know, it's sort

794
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,359
Speaker 3: of a reaction. My wife has been sort of very

795
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,280
Speaker 3: adhd with what she wants to do to the house.

796
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 2: She you know, wants to add like a pack.

797
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 3: This is what I feel like a lot of spouses

798
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 3: like to do, is that they just like to throw

799
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 3: projects out there. So I just picked the one that

800
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,720
Speaker 3: I thought was going to be the least amount of money.

801
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 3: And I think my wife played me right because she

802
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 3: came up to me.

803
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 2: We were sort of talking about doing a bunch.

804
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 3: Of things, maybe the bathroom, maybe do something with the lawn,

805
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,359
Speaker 3: blah blah blah, and she comes up to me while

806
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 3: I'm washing dishes one day and she just goes, I'm

807
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,959
Speaker 3: just throwing it out there, just so don't get mad,

808
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 3: just spitballing when I make sure we're on the same page.

809
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 3: What if we he added a second story to our

810
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 3: house and I was like, oh my god, are you?

811
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 2: I was like, are you? That's like that is an.

812
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 3: So I was like, let's just do the bathroom. So

813
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 3: she she overshot it. She totally played me, negotiated the

814
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 3: exact so she's getting her way.

815
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 2: Smart, very smart move. Absolutely, all right, let's do a

816
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 2: commercial work. We'll come back. Jeff Conkle's gonna.

817
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 3: Hang out with us a little bit more, and uh,

818
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 3: you know, I'm sure that there's gonna be people hitting

819
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 3: up with all kinds of tips on how to quickly

820
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 3: get that take on give me, and how to remove

821
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 3: a tub.

822
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 4: That to me is that's such a daunting task.

823
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 3: Also, the floor in these old houses, they did not

824
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 3: just put tile in like thin set.

825
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 2: They put it in three inches of concrete.

826
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 3: So I have to get a jackhammer into my house

827
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 3: to jackhammer out the floor.

828
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,760
Speaker 2: So that'll be fun too. There's no sub floor.

829
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 3: Huh, there is a sub floor, but there's three inches

830
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 3: of concrete that the tile is directly set in. This

831
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,399
Speaker 3: is like like when they talk about like this house

832
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:59,320
Speaker 3: has old bones, like those bones have calcified and they're.

833
00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,879
Speaker 2: Gonna kill me too. Abby's got news Necks.

834
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 6: Billy Idol is coming to town and we'll talk about

835
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 6: this weird phenomenon of ways that parents are getting their

836
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 6: toddlers to stop having tantrums, and it's pretty weird.

837
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 3: Barsol Sports Pardon My Take co host PFT comment and

838
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,759

839
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 3: ask you about his good friend Diana Rassini and her

840
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 3: relationship with Patriots coach Mike Raymond.

841
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 2: I like to hear the Debbie Brothers.

842
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: Socialist phone or the talkback button on the iHeart Radio app.

843
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,720
Speaker 1: Is how you reach us with your requests. You build

844
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 1: the menu bare Rocket weekdays at noon on the DVE Electric.

845
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:36,319
Speaker 2: Lunch have this out and trucks have Astoland you.

846
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: DVE Pittsburgh an iHeart Radio station, guaranteed human.

847
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 2: This is what's great about a good roast.

848
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 6: And you know, even thinking about the Nicky Glazer things

849
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 6: that were successful or other roasts that are enjoyable. And

850
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 6: Billy Gardell would always say this, there always has to

851
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 6: be that element of love. And you love the Steelers,

852
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 6: and even as you're talking about getting ready for it,

853
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 6: you revere these players enough that you can do the

854
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 6: jokes and then you got to wrap it up in

855
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 6: that bow that lets you know how much you love them.

856
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 2: To make fun of Pompey and his hair dye.

857
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 6: I think anytime you don't know what to do, you

858
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 6: turn the gun on Pump.

859
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 2: And you're gonna be good. Oh nice, the furniture matches.

860
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 5: Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning.

861
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I was just kidding.

862
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 3: I was telling people last hour, I'm doing the Mel

863
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 3: Blunt roast of Charlie Batch and Terry Bradshaw's the host.

864
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 3: And talking with the organizers yesterday, I had to find

865
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,719
Speaker 3: out the tone. Jeff, you you understand the importance of this,

866
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 3: and they were like, well, yeah, we'd like it to be,

867
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 3: you know, uplifting.

868
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 2: We want to be nice and funny.

869
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 3: But you know, the word convivial wasn't used, but I

870
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 3: think that that's kind of what they were. Something balcony here,

871
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 3: a little dignified, and but don't be afraid to make

872
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 3: people gifa along the way while you know, pumping Charlie's

873
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 3: tires and so I just I'm gonna have to turn

874
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 3: towards the table. And I don't know how Terry Bradshaw

875
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 3: doesn't get all of the darts either. They're gonna be

876
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 3: very soft. They're gonna be the velcro darts, you know

877
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 3: what I mean. And you think, like Terry, every group

878
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 3: of friends has one friend that they all make fun

879
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 3: of and that seems to be able to take it.

880
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 3: And I always feel like Terry Bradshaw has that vibe

881
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 3: about him, like if he was in a group of friends,

882
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 3: he's he's so charismatic and everything like that, that sort

883
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 3: of like that kind of thing just sort of bounces

884
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 3: and maybe falls off him or something like that, or

885
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:47,919
Speaker 3: he invites it a little bit. Yeah, to the point

886
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 3: where I think that that would be a fine pocket

887
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 3: to stick in for a little bit. Not fun at frank,

888
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 3: you know when he used to do that to cali

889
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:57,280
Speaker 3: Endo all the time. Yeah, convivial and roast, though very

890
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,120
Speaker 3: difficult to two adjectives.

891
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 2: It's more of a celebration of I'm glad to be

892
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 2: there for it Anyway's just.

893
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 3: The fact I'm like John Stalworth is on the day

894
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 3: is come on, I have Melbourne. In years past, people

895
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 3: have approached me and say, hey, at my wedding, I

896
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,360
Speaker 3: want you to, like, you know, come in and roast people.

897
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 2: And I'm like, I know, I don't know. That's a

898
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 2: bad idea.

899
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:24,799
Speaker 3: I was like, first of all, I don't know any

900
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 3: of you, so it doesn't it's just mean like and

901
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 3: they like, so I don't have that, like oh, we

902
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 3: share the same context deflector shield up where I can

903
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 3: say something about you, you know, pooping your pants when

904
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 3: you were twenty seven years old, and it not come

905
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:40,880
Speaker 3: off as like who the hell is this?

906
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 2: I was like, I think people think.

907
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 3: It's a good idea until it actually happens, Like it's

908
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 3: a roast is funny when it's happening to anybody else,

909
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 3: but when it's in your group, it's I don't know

910
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 3: that you really want it that that like like that,

911
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 3: it's like that episode of the Office where Michael Scott's like,

912
00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 3: I want to be roasted immediately.

913
00:44:59,280 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 2: That's it down.

914
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 6: I'll do that on reddits sometimes where they just put

915
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 6: up photos of themselves and they write roast me.

916
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,200
Speaker 2: Really, it is brutal, brutal, brutal.

917
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 3: It's a crossover from the self harm Reddit like it's

918
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 3: likely goes from one to the other like no, no,

919
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 3: no good that that's some kind of weird. I'm lonely.

920
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 3: I need some kind of human interaction. The only thing

921
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,760
Speaker 3: I can muster up that it will get any attention

922
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 3: is if you all everyone, I want the whole Internet

923
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,919
Speaker 3: to make fun of me, and boy do they. Yeah

924
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 3: again when people make videos uh about those posts and

925
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 3: then they make songs out of all the comments. That

926
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 3: is my favorite Internet meme. When there's like have you

927
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 3: ever seen that? We'll be like, oh yeah, Like someone

928
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 3: will like write a song that has all of the comments.

929
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 2: That's the lyrics of the song. And because I'm.

930
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 3: Telling you the Internet is full of hilarious comedy writers,

931
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 3: there's some jokes that get thrown out in those comments

932
00:45:57,880 --> 00:45:59,160
Speaker 3: that I'm like, I would have never thought of that,

933
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 3: million that's hilarious. Funnily enough, with the Reddit roast, it

934
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 3: does toe a line too, because reddit's sort of like

935
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 3: soft you know, you know, what do I want to say?

936
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 2: Mental health conscious?

937
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:15,280
Speaker 3: So even the roast jokes in there are not harsh

938
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 3: enough to warrant like serious you know, self conscious, self

939
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 3: doubt inducing you know, panic or anything like that. They

940
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 3: kind of even toe a line in that community. It's

941
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,399
Speaker 3: really weird. I think Bob Nutting should have the roast

942
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 3: of Bob Nutting. He should allow us to just go

943
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 3: in there and roast. I don't know, he might be

944
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 3: feeling his oats right now. The Buckos are the big

945
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 3: win last night. Paul Skin's looking pretty good, and Connor

946
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 3: Griffin is coming around. A couple of hits for Connor

947
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 3: Griffin last night, knocking in two runs, scoring one. He

948
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:48,280
Speaker 3: had the fastest sprint to first in Major League Baseball

949
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 3: all year long, thirty point two feet per second. Yeah,

950
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 3: the stats are remember remember what Hank Karen used to run?

951
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,680
Speaker 3: I neither do I because it didn't matter. Yeah, but still, oh,

952
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 3: I like it when your guys said record, why those

953
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 3: stats seem to keep popping up like, I don't know

954
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 3: that that does that moving the needle for anybody like

955
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:09,320
Speaker 3: which just means he's fast.

956
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 8: You know.

957
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 3: It's like Mike said earlier, the eye test is really

958
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 3: the only test. Honor Griffin tied his shoes tighter than

959
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:23,360
Speaker 3: over six hundred PSI shoes. You can never get that

960
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,360
Speaker 3: cleat off the kid. I mean, it's really one of

961
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 3: the things that they liked about him as a young man.

962
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 3: Abby's got a news update for you here. Jeff Conkle

Speaker 3: Shocked to find out how popular Billy Idle is. Oh yeah,

977
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 3: a friend of mine went and saw him in New

978
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 3: York at Madison Square Garden.

979
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 2: Sold out. That is shocking to me.

980
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, now, I guess I didn't check to

981
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 3: see if it was a half house, because I can't

982
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:26,880
Speaker 3: believe he's doing sixteen thousand people.

983
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 2: I can I can't really. Yeah, It's just it's like

984
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:32,600
Speaker 2: going to eighties night.

985
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 3: If you had an eighties night in Madison Square Garden, exell,

986
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 3: sixteen thousand tickets. It gives people a reason to dress

987
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 3: up funny and you know, put their Madonna lace, fingerless

988
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 3: gloves on and everything like that and go. And if

989
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 3: tickets are decently you know, cheap, then then they're gonna go.

990
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 3: And that's probably what it's going to be like out

991
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 3: at the Pavilion too. I mean, I'm old enough to

992
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 3: remember when he came out with Rebel Yell, and it

993
00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 3: was like he was one of the first, Like if

994
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 3: MTV was a Jim Henson creation, he was one of

995
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 3: the big muppets.

996
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:05,000
Speaker 5: It was a time.

997
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, Cydney Lauper, Billy Idol, Madonna. There are all these

998
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 3: crazy figures that just kind of popped up out of nowhere,

999
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 3: seemingly because I didn't know about Generation X or any

1000
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 3: of that stuff when I was a kid, you know,

1001
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 3: but I would have thought his staying power would have

1002
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,319
Speaker 3: been minimal. How many hits does he have rebel yell

1003
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 3: eyes without a face, dancing with myself.

1004
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 2: Money money if you want to count his co oh yeah,

1005
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 2: that's right, I forgot about that. It should come.

1006
00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:40,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, doing Tom James five, that's five. I mean that's

1007
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,839
Speaker 3: a third of a set. I guess for a guy

1008
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 3: that with that many hits, Like, I feel like you

1009
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 3: don't talk about an album with him, Like like nobody

1010
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 3: talks about like what the album is that had all

1011
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 3: those songs on, which is ye shocking to me. He

1012
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 3: also was like one of those guys like Bonjovi that

1013
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 3: had his own Richie Sambora and Steve Stevens, And I

1014
00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,160
Speaker 3: don't did Steve Stevens still play with him?

1015
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,920
Speaker 2: Yeah he does, Okay, I think he does. He's a badass.

1016
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll do well. People like you said the eighties

1017
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 3: night aspect of it. I wonder if those guys just

1018
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,920
Speaker 3: like steer into the skid with that and then add

1019
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:11,919
Speaker 3: covers from that era.

1020
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're definitely going like time after time or like

1021
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,319
Speaker 2: you know, issues a romantics. What I like about you? Yeah,

1022
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:18,839
Speaker 2: you know.

1023
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:25,080
Speaker 3: He shows up wearing a Ferris Bueller's Friends Detroit Red

1024
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 3: Wings shirt just because it's a that's a throwback to.

1025
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 6: All right, we're gonna talk about a weird phenomena in parenting.

1026
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:32,320
Speaker 2: Here.

1027
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 6: Some parents are using a new tactic to quell their kids' tantrums,

1028
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 6: and her name is Jessica. A new trend of parents

1029
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 6: calling out the name Jessica while their child is having

1030
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 6: an outburst has gained popularity on TikTok for its apparent effectiveness.

1031
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 6: Now nearly all of the videos play out in the

1032
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,760
Speaker 6: same way. And this is kind of hard to play

1033
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 6: back in audio form because you kind of need to

1034
00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 6: see the kids having the tantrum and then see how

1035
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:01,719
Speaker 6: they're reactions change visually.

1036
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:03,560
Speaker 2: But this is what happens.

1037
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 6: You'll see a crying toddler and then a mom or

1038
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 6: dad starts calling for Jessica and then even pretending to

1039
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,719
Speaker 6: search for an imaginary person, and then the response in

1040
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:17,720
Speaker 6: the kid is almost instant. The kid just stops crying

1041
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 6: and then in some cases just starts looking for Jessica too.

1042
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 6: So kid'll be like bawling their face off, and then

1043
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 6: the parents Jessica, Jessica.

1044
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:27,239
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, the kids starts to

1045
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:31,880
Speaker 2: start looking around, real Where's Jessica. This is so odd.

1046
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 2: I haven't watching it, Jessica. That's it, Jessica.

1047
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:43,520
Speaker 4: And the baby just stops crying and looks around Jessica.

1048
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:45,799
Speaker 2: Jessica, are you there?

1049
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 13: Baby stops Jessica, Baby looks for Jessica.

1050
00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:07,800
Speaker 2: Jessica, Jessica, where are you? Jessica. All right, Jessica, comer.

1051
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:10,760
Speaker 2: They all stop.

1052
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 6: So everybody's noting how successful this is.

1053
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 2: So why does it work?

1054
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,680
Speaker 6: Doctors say the so called Jessica trick can be effective

1055
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:25,440
Speaker 6: because it's a technique known as redirection. So doctor Mona Amn,

1056
00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 6: a pediatrician and social media content creator, told USA Today

1057
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 6: that the approach helps pause a child's nervous system during

1058
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 6: a moment of heightened emotion. So when you suddenly say

1059
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 6: something out of the ordinary, especially in a calm tone,

1060
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:42,320
Speaker 6: it interrupts that escalation pattern that's happening in their brain.

1061
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:46,400
Speaker 2: Nah nah, I'll tell you. I'll tell you what this

1062
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:46,919
Speaker 2: is doing.

1063
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 3: This is going to start a new genre of horror

1064
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:53,400
Speaker 3: movies in about twenty years. This is Jessica will be

1065
00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 3: the new bloody Mary that you have. You say her

1066
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,359
Speaker 3: three times in the mirror, she appears under your bed

1067
00:52:58,520 --> 00:52:58,799
Speaker 3: like not.

1068
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 2: This is going to be very very good.

1069
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 3: In my house, we just play the Almond Brothers.

1070
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 2: Jessica and then the kids.

1071
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:11,799
Speaker 4: I think I used to do this with my dog

1072
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:13,800
Speaker 4: all the time, Like you can.

1073
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:16,920
Speaker 3: Just pretend somebody else is there and your energy, as

1074
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 3: if is redirected.

1075
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 2: I don't know if it has to be that name Jessica.

1076
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 3: There's nothing in the like consonants in there that.

1077
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,400
Speaker 4: Because the hard cut part of it.

1078
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,279
Speaker 3: I would think maybe the baby picks up on but

1079
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 3: I would imagine any name like that.

1080
00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 2: Connor would do the same thing.

1081
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 3: I'm just also of the opinion of anyone who's filming

1082
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,920
Speaker 3: their kids and experimenting on them and then posting it

1083
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:47,320
Speaker 3: on Twitter to show that I just have derision for

1084
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,840
Speaker 3: for your life. Like then if if you're just throwing

1085
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 3: it out there and experimenting on your kids and putting

1086
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 3: it on TikTok, no good, no respect to you.

1087
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean there's something to be said for the disruption.

1088
00:53:57,960 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 6: I feel like there was just as much success with

1089
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,520
Speaker 6: parents that were throwing slices of cheese.

1090
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 2: On the yes, sorry remember that would start.

1091
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:08,560
Speaker 3: Crying and then they would take like hilarious genre of videos.

1092
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:10,279
Speaker 6: I will say it would take like a slice of

1093
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 6: American cheese and just throw it and it would land

1094
00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 6: perfectly on their kids foreheads.

1095
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 2: That distraction also, yeah, that was a huge distraction. Also

1096
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:19,720
Speaker 2: was fun.

1097
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,880
Speaker 6: About that is the kids would like register their first

1098
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:23,359
Speaker 6: taste of true humiliation.

1099
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:30,600
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Like this was awful. I'm embarrassed.

1100
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 3: But again, what kind of sexual deviancy are you downloading

1101
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 3: in your kid by throwing cheese on their face and

1102
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,360
Speaker 3: then like, I, mommy, shame me. I need some I

1103
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 3: need some goda. It does seem like you're planning the

1104
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:44,760
Speaker 3: seeds for some s weirdness.

1105
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:45,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, why not?

1106
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 6: Speaking of seeds of weirdness, is Red Lobster bringing back

1107
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 6: the promotion that bankrupted it? The food chain has already

1108
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:56,480
Speaker 6: brought back lobsterfest It and is now rumored that the

1109
00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:00,319
Speaker 6: endless shrimp offering is making its return. So so far,

1110
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,239
Speaker 6: Red Lobster has not confirmed this move, but you can

1111
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 6: be sure if the proach comes back, there will be

1112
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:06,800
Speaker 6: stricter rules.

1113
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,880
Speaker 2: So foodies keep a close eye on this.

1114
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:12,800
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, how can they be stricter rules. It's

1115
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 3: all you can eat, right, isn't that the rule?

1116
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 2: That's what I think. Endless shrimp means endless shrimp? Right?

1117
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:21,600
Speaker 3: Do you just go back to the Simpsons and the

1118
00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 3: old stains Mad.

1119
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 2: Is a shrimp feeding monster. It seemed like a.

1120
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 3: Very bad business plan from the get go, but then

1121
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:35,320
Speaker 3: when you read about it, they just like the guy

1122
00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 3: who took over at Red Lobster, completely screwed up their

1123
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:43,840
Speaker 3: supply chain system and they tried to buy their supplier

1124
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,439
Speaker 3: or something like that, and in doing so, they took

1125
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 3: on all this debt. And everyone assumed that the Endless

1126
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:51,480
Speaker 3: Shrimp is what did it, but that really wasn't what

1127
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 3: did it.

1128
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:53,720
Speaker 2: And then when their.

1129
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:55,960
Speaker 3: Previous business model was to just, you know, put that

1130
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 3: guy out of business, and now so they bought the

1131
00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,440
Speaker 3: guy that they were putting out of business. Now they're

1132
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 3: out of it, right, And so there's some new wonder

1133
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 3: kid that's running their company now and he was like,

1134
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:09,400
Speaker 3: the first thing we're gonna do is re establish at

1135
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:11,560
Speaker 3: the Shrimp, which I think is so funny, like the

1136
00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,279
Speaker 3: cornerstone of our business needs to be people can come

1137
00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 3: in here and pig out. I just like that the

1138
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,560
Speaker 3: fact that they had they have to have done focus

1139
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 3: studies with groups of people in all different quadrants of

1140
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 3: America and come up with a scientific algorithmic formula of

1141
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:33,919
Speaker 3: how many shrimp can the fattest, fattiest eat.

1142
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 2: It's an Excel.

1143
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:39,200
Speaker 3: Spreadsheet tab with pivot tables and macros.

1144
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:39,640
Speaker 2: And everything like that.

1145
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,239
Speaker 3: But yeah, and they get the median like what is

1146
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:44,640
Speaker 3: like what's the average person person?

1147
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 7: Right?

1148
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 2: And then you want to talk about analytics.

1149
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:51,400
Speaker 3: Catastrophically those people like, what's the shrimp eating version of war?

1150
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1151
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 2: Right, shrimp over replacement? Scampy? Can this guy take abby?

1152
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,920
Speaker 2: What's the weather going to be like today? Mostly sunny

1153
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:02,359
Speaker 2: in a high sixty three? That's great.

1154
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 3: It was so damn cold this morning. And I know

1155
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 3: the sun was great yesterday. It was cold. Didn't stop

1156
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:10,480
Speaker 3: Paul Skiing from being on fire though.

1157
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 2: Last night.

1158
00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:13,279
Speaker 3: Six and a third took a no hitter into the

1159
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:16,080
Speaker 3: sixth inning and the Connor Griffin gets the bats going,

1160
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 3: the Bucks blow out. The Padres and Michael have a

1161
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 3: full sports report for you when we came back.

1162
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:24,400
Speaker 1: Chad Tyson turns your car into a sonic playground at

1163
00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:28,080
Speaker 1: it every weekday afternoon. He's got a reloaded cut from

1164
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:32,080
Speaker 1: the DVE Morning show Sports and a Workforce commercial Free

1165
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 1: hour at three afternoons with Chad Tysodden on DVE.

1166
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:42,600
Speaker 9: Live from the Donz Appliances Studios where Pittsburgh's shops for appliances.

1167
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,840
Speaker 4: This is w DVEE Sports on DVE.

1168
00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 2: Sports Star, brought to you by Vigil Appliants.

1169
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 12: It is seven thirty, So we got three takes that

1170
00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 12: resonate Randall.

1171
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:56,560
Speaker 2: Take number one. How sweet it is. The debate can

1172
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 2: ray John.

1173
00:57:57,160 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 12: And likely will for a while as to what was

1174
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:03,400
Speaker 12: the most unlikely Wow, never saw that come in development

1175
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 12: in a Penguin season that has been defined by a

1176
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 12: slew of such occurrences, But Depends cleared up any doubt

1177
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 12: as to the most valuable of those transformations when they

1178
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 12: named Eric Carlson their team MVP for two years. Carlson

1179
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 12: was a big part of the problem. This season, his

1180
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 12: contributions have been so resounding. Carlson has become the first

1181
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:28,560
Speaker 12: Penguins player not named Sidney Crosby to win the award

1182
00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 12: in the last seven campaigns, and Crosby has been for

1183
00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 12: the most part healthy and productive. That's how good Carlson

1184
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,600
Speaker 12: has been. He's the biggest reason Depends have a chance

1185
00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:43,640
Speaker 12: in a season that began with debate unfounded but still

1186
00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,760
Speaker 12: unavoidable as narratives as to whether Crosby should be traded,

1187
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,840
Speaker 12: and as to whether the Penguins should tank for Gavin McKenna,

1188
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,960
Speaker 12: Glad they didn't do that for a couple of reasons. Oh,

1189
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:00,400
Speaker 12: you're not a fan. No, he's going to be fine.

1190
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,919
Speaker 12: He's not gonna be what people thought a year ago.

1191
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:05,160
Speaker 12: You don't think.

1192
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 2: He's gonna be. Maclin's celebrating, not cider Mario, that's one

1193
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 2: of Joe Bartnick's favorites. Is pretty good.

1194
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,240
Speaker 12: Yeah, mckett's going to be pretty good. But you should

1195
00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:20,720
Speaker 12: never tag. But I digress. Okay, take number two. The

1196
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 12: future is finally now. Last night's Pirates outlasting of San

1197
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:27,680
Speaker 12: Diego has a chance to really resonate because Paul Skins

1198
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 12: and Connor Griffin had their fingerprints all over it. Who

1199
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 12: knows what that means for the long term, but in

1200
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 12: the upcoming summer, the Bucks are going to be throwing

1201
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 12: the best picture in the game and the best prospect

1202
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:42,640
Speaker 12: in the game at opponents with relentless regularity. Griffin is

1203
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:45,440
Speaker 12: in the process of merging into what he will eventually

1204
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:50,000
Speaker 12: become before our very eyes. While still clearly unfinished, he's

1205
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 12: obviously outgrown the Miners. Skeins has already arrived. Both are

1206
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 12: going to generate headlines throughout the baseball landscape from now

1207
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 12: until October, maybe maybe beyond.

1208
01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:08,240
Speaker 3: H Jude start teasing. I mean, it's a pretty good

1209
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:10,240
Speaker 3: start to the season so far. And how many games

1210
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 3: connagraph and have five?

1211
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:12,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, so.

1212
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:19,800
Speaker 3: Three hits five games. I think whence the weather breaks,

1213
01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:21,680
Speaker 3: that's enough of a story. They've had enough of a

1214
01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:23,960
Speaker 3: hot start. That place is going to be jamming if like,

1215
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 3: if that, if this weather gets to be seventy and

1216
01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,440
Speaker 3: we're we're still kind of hovering around where we're at

1217
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:31,360
Speaker 3: right now, that's going to be a fun time down there.

1218
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:31,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1219
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:33,360
Speaker 2: I wish there would have been more people there last night.

1220
01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 3: But a six thirty start and his forty degrees, Yeah,

1221
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 3: kind of tough.

1222
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:40,959
Speaker 2: Take number three guarded optimism.

1223
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:44,040
Speaker 12: The draft simulators, for what that's worth, are starting to

1224
01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 12: repeatedly suggest Penn State guard Oliva Venga you Wanna will

1225
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 12: be selected well before the Steelers are on the clock.

1226
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:55,320
Speaker 12: But with twelve selections and no need to draft twelve players,

1227
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:58,400
Speaker 12: the Steelers have the opportunity to move up for a

1228
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:02,200
Speaker 12: guy they really covet, assuming you Wanta is such a player.

1229
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 12: If he's not, they need to reevaluate their evaluation. If

1230
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 12: he is trading their second round pick, fifty third overall

1231
01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:12,320
Speaker 12: and the twenty first pick to Miami for the eleventh

1232
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:15,920
Speaker 12: overall selection just might be enough to land the next

1233
01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:19,520
Speaker 12: Alan Fannica. And in Pittsburgh there could be no more

1234
01:01:19,640 --> 01:01:23,960
Speaker 12: appropriate celebration of a first round savior, even if he

1235
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:26,040
Speaker 12: plays guard and not quarterback.

1236
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 3: You know, I blame you for this guy's draft stock

1237
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:31,040
Speaker 3: rising so much.

1238
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 2: Early on.

1239
01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:36,720
Speaker 3: Should have had no problem getting him. Now we got

1240
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,200
Speaker 3: to give up. Negotiate yourself, right.

1241
01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 12: You know, I was talking about this yesterday with Matt

1242
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:46,440
Speaker 12: Williamson and Max Starks. We did a taping for Steelers

1243
01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:50,800
Speaker 12: dot Com. And you look at so much stuff when

1244
01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:53,200
Speaker 12: you evaluate these guys. I mean, I'm not a scout.

1245
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:55,000
Speaker 12: I'm trying to do as much as I can with

1246
01:01:55,120 --> 01:02:00,200
Speaker 12: the time I have. But you're looking at games you

1247
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 12: find on television or the Internet or wherever you're reading

1248
01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:08,200
Speaker 12: up on these guys. You're watching the combine in the

1249
01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 12: pro days, and there's just every year there's a couple guys,

1250
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 12: maybe one to maybe one more that you just can't

1251
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:18,560
Speaker 12: get out of your head. And you're looking at a

1252
01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 12: linebacker from Utah, and you know what, I want to

1253
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:23,919
Speaker 12: look at some more. You want it, and he's that guy.

1254
01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:24,960
Speaker 12: I mean, he's just.

1255
01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:26,960
Speaker 5: He.

1256
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:33,439
Speaker 12: Do you want one of the receivers or the guy

1257
01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:33,960
Speaker 12: at guard?

1258
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:36,680
Speaker 2: No, I think you want the guy at guard.

1259
01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:40,640
Speaker 3: It's never a fan favorite when you stock up on

1260
01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:44,680
Speaker 3: the hosses. Even defensive line, people don't love those picks.

1261
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,600
Speaker 3: But at least they get sacks, so yeah, there's something exactly.

1262
01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:50,280
Speaker 3: But offensive line is such an un sexy pick that

1263
01:02:50,320 --> 01:02:53,000
Speaker 3: people kind of get bummed out and they it's like,

1264
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:54,880
Speaker 3: you know, getting socks for Christmas.

1265
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 2: I need them, but you do need them.

1266
01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:01,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, it would be fun if they could get this

1267
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:02,800
Speaker 12: die well.

1268
01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 3: It would help considering they're gonna have a forty eight

1269
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:08,760
Speaker 3: year old quarterback, it.

1270
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,400
Speaker 2: Would help us. They had a twenty four year old quarterback.

1271
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 2: Well hired. I'm real, real excited about.

1272
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:16,480
Speaker 12: We'll hire seven one bucks over the Padres last night,

1273
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 12: Paul Skeins took a no hitter into the sixth, wound

1274
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:22,480
Speaker 12: up giving up two hits and one run on Axander

1275
01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 12: Bogart's solo homer, but the Pirates able to pull away late.

1276
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:29,680
Speaker 2: Ryan O'Hearn two for three again. He's only hitting three.

1277
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 12: Eighty nine Connor in amazing oh Man Connor Griffin two

1278
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:37,440
Speaker 12: for four with a run scored and two RBI. Bucks

1279
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 12: and Padres will finish things up at PNC Park this afternoon,

1280
01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 12: twelve thirty five.

1281
01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 2: Your schedule.

1282
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:47,200
Speaker 12: First pitch between Michael King and Mitch Keller. As I

1283
01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 12: mentioned in the Takes, Eric Carlson is the Penguins team MVP.

1284
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,439
Speaker 2: The other award winners players player.

1285
01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:58,360
Speaker 12: For leadership on and off the ice, Sidney Crosby, Unsung

1286
01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 12: hero Noel Achari. That's for a guy who consistently gives

1287
01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:05,440
Speaker 12: effort but is rarely, if ever recognized for doing so.

1288
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year Ben.

1289
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:12,400
Speaker 12: Kendall another just dramatic lamblation this year. This has been

1290
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:14,080
Speaker 12: so much else going on. I don't know if he's

1291
01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:15,320
Speaker 12: gotten the credit he deserves.

1292
01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:17,840
Speaker 3: I'm okay with that though, I think that might have

1293
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:18,600
Speaker 3: helped him.

1294
01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:21,959
Speaker 12: Might have Defensive Player of the Year split between Blake

1295
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:26,760
Speaker 12: Lazatte and Ryan Shay. And the Bass bestem Memorial Award.

1296
01:04:27,120 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 12: That's the media good guy that goes to Brian Rust

1297
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:32,280
Speaker 12: every year when they give this out. I recall Eddie

1298
01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:35,360
Speaker 12: Johnston talking about Bass Best Team, who was the Penguins

1299
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:40,280
Speaker 12: General manager back when the Penguins were horrifically bad and

1300
01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:47,280
Speaker 12: Bass made a questionable trade, let's say, and EJ's response was, Hey,

1301
01:04:47,280 --> 01:04:48,960
Speaker 12: you must have been looking at him his glass eye

1302
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,360
Speaker 12: on that one.

1303
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, back when it was fine to make these Kanda jokes.

1304
01:04:57,440 --> 01:04:59,320
Speaker 2: It's kind of always been that in the hockey. Yeah, well,

1305
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:00,120
Speaker 2: then no doubt about it.

1306
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:04,200
Speaker 3: On the way for you PFT commoner, We'll have to

1307
01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 3: ask him about this whole Diana residing Mike Vrabel.

1308
01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:09,440
Speaker 2: A well alleged affair.

1309
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:11,360
Speaker 3: And I don't know, I want to know who the

1310
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 3: TMZ photographer was that was following around Mike Rabel and

1311
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 3: Diana Residi.

1312
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:19,480
Speaker 2: Someone must have spilled the beans on them. One of

1313
01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:24,440
Speaker 2: these looks like a drone shot. Ah, that is weird, right, See.

1314
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:26,919
Speaker 3: This is what makes me think, like there's so much

1315
01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:31,440
Speaker 3: money at stake in the NFL that this this does

1316
01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:33,440
Speaker 3: not boil down to like a TMZ I got a

1317
01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 3: scoop to me, this is like corporate espionage. Like I

1318
01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:39,200
Speaker 3: bet you that drone had a Dallas Cowboys you know,

1319
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 3: logo on it or something like that.

1320
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:44,040
Speaker 2: That's what I think. Or a Washington Post or New

1321
01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:44,960
Speaker 2: York Post.

1322
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:47,800
Speaker 3: Like yeah, yeah, because She's employed by the New York

1323
01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:50,320
Speaker 3: Times essentially being an athletic reporter.

1324
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:53,320
Speaker 2: So this was a page six story.

1325
01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:55,680
Speaker 3: So this might have been Rupert Murdoch trying to take

1326
01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:57,919
Speaker 3: down one of their stars. She gets paid more than

1327
01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:01,120
Speaker 3: just about anybody on New York Times. It's like like,

1328
01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:03,640
Speaker 3: if all the reporters in New York Times have she's

1329
01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:04,680
Speaker 3: one of the highest paid.

1330
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,200
Speaker 2: That wouldn't be Washington Plus because they don't do sports anymore.

1331
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 2: That's true.

1332
01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 12: By the way, I got to clear up something I

1333
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 12: said last hour, the Glazer drinking with Tomlin another's things. Fine,

1334
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,360
Speaker 12: that's how it's done. That's what's been done forever. Yeah,

1335
01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,160
Speaker 12: you sell the people, you buddy up with them, and.

1336
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:24,240
Speaker 3: You get not the same as having a romantic relationship

1337
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,560
Speaker 3: with Yeah, I think that was a I think that

1338
01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:30,640
Speaker 3: was inferred and for clear distinction. I think that you

1339
01:06:30,760 --> 01:06:34,160
Speaker 3: were possibly letting spill over some of your other opinions

1340
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 3: about the way that he conducts himself that.

1341
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:40,480
Speaker 2: You were just kidding. That doesn't normally happen with me,

1342
01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:44,560
Speaker 2: but every once in a while, while you know, all right,

1343
01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:46,560
Speaker 2: we'll ask PFT all about that later on this morning.

1344
01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:49,360
Speaker 3: Phil Borg talking Penguins, Abby will have your news at

1345
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:50,120
Speaker 3: the top of the hour.

1346
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:52,240
Speaker 2: We've been paying attention to space a lot.

1347
01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:54,880
Speaker 6: This week we'll talk about how living in space could

1348
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 6: create a whole new human species.

1349
01:06:57,360 --> 01:07:01,080
Speaker 3: Well, we're all celebrating Connor Griffin with the Pittsburgh Pirates

1350
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 3: getting called up and that home opener performance is something

1351
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:05,640
Speaker 3: I'll never forget.

1352
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:08,200
Speaker 2: But Lott and all of this was the report that the.

1353
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:11,600
Speaker 3: Pirates were signing him to a long term contract, and

1354
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:15,080
Speaker 3: we were all thrilled about that, and then nothing's really

1355
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:19,560
Speaker 3: happened with that, and now everyone started talking about it,

1356
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:22,360
Speaker 3: like why would he sign that contract if he could

1357
01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:25,600
Speaker 3: sign one for one hundred million dollars more if he

1358
01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,040
Speaker 3: waits a couple of years, And then it started to

1359
01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 3: not make any sense. And now it seems like maybe

1360
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:33,959
Speaker 3: that's not gonna happen for all the reasons that didn't

1361
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,720
Speaker 3: make sense in the first place. Noah Hiles from the

1362
01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:39,080
Speaker 3: pg's gonna join us. He'll break it down for us.

1363
01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:41,040
Speaker 3: We heard all these days like oh wow, he's got

1364
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:43,440
Speaker 3: till April ninth, and all of that stuff. The truth,

1365
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,360
Speaker 3: the ins and outs on what's going on with Connor

1366
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:49,439
Speaker 3: Griffin and the reported offer from the Pirates and whether

1367
01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:52,160
Speaker 3: that's something that he and his team have accepted when

1368
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:54,800
Speaker 3: we come back. And also just to look ahead for

1369
01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 3: these guys, and they got a two thirty matchup today.

1370
01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,640
Speaker 3: Did you say twelve thirty five? So it should be

1371
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:03,600
Speaker 3: pretty warm by then? Thirty seven degrees? Okay, well it'll

1372
01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:07,760
Speaker 3: be sunny. At least there's that streaming on all your devices.

1373
01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 3: No matter where I go.

1374
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:10,240
Speaker 5: I always listened to.

1375
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:13,800
Speaker 9: DV, comedy, sports and the rock you grew up with,

1376
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:16,200
Speaker 9: save d V as a pre set.

1377
01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:18,240
Speaker 5: I'm a free iHeartRadio app.

1378
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:23,680
Speaker 2: I was walking up two flights of stairs.

1379
01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 3: Christener, mister Wednesday, Jeff Conkle hanging out with us, Buckos

1380
01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:29,679
Speaker 3: Ben on Fire last night, a seven to one victory

1381
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 3: over the Padres, Paul Skien's doing Paul Skien's things, Connor

1382
01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:36,760
Speaker 3: Griffin turning it on and Pirates fans have been so

1383
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:42,400
Speaker 3: excited since Connor Griffin's call up. Only one little problem

1384
01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:45,600
Speaker 3: with all of that. Did they sign him to the

1385
01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:48,080
Speaker 3: contract we all heard about or not? Noah Hiles from

1386
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:51,240
Speaker 3: the Postcazette on the line with us this morning. Noah,

1387
01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:52,160
Speaker 3: good morning, how are you.

1388
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 8: I'm great?

1389
01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:54,560
Speaker 7: Thanks for having me on.

1390
01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, buddy, thanks for making time for us. Here, here's

1391
01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 3: my question. Did we all just suffer like Mandela effect

1392
01:08:58,920 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 3: or something.

1393
01:08:59,280 --> 01:08:59,880
Speaker 2: Did we all just.

1394
01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:03,200
Speaker 3: Read the same thing going into a holiday weekend and

1395
01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 3: assume that Connor Griffin was signed long term to the

1396
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:10,120
Speaker 3: Buckos and our fortunes were changing as Pirates fans, And

1397
01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:12,720
Speaker 3: how did this all occur? Can you take us through

1398
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:16,160
Speaker 3: the timeline of where it started and where it stands now?

1399
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:17,639
Speaker 8: Yeah?

1400
01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:18,640
Speaker 7: Absolutely so.

1401
01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:20,640
Speaker 8: There's a lot of.

1402
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:26,200
Speaker 7: Interesting legislation and rules behind all of this. So some

1403
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:28,479
Speaker 7: of the incentive to get Connor Griffin up to the

1404
01:09:28,560 --> 01:09:31,240
Speaker 7: major leagues this year is if he plays a full

1405
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 7: year of Major League Baseball, which it has to be

1406
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:37,200
Speaker 7: at least one hundred and seventy two days, the Pirates

1407
01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:40,160
Speaker 7: are in position to get a draft pick should he

1408
01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 7: win Rookie of the Year or have a top three

1409
01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:46,160
Speaker 7: finish in MVP voting in any of his first three

1410
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:50,120
Speaker 7: seasons in the big league, So that incentivises them to

1411
01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:52,320
Speaker 7: move him up to the major league. Because they missed

1412
01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:55,200
Speaker 7: out on this opportunity with Paul Schemes, they kind of

1413
01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:58,719
Speaker 7: messed that up a little bit, so that's not exactly

1414
01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 7: one hundred percent brought him up, but it played a

1415
01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:01,960
Speaker 7: part of it.

1416
01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:03,880
Speaker 8: They also needed a shortstop, so.

1417
01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:07,120
Speaker 7: They promote him up here. And it's worth pointing that

1418
01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:09,800
Speaker 7: out because they've been trying to work a long term

1419
01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:13,479
Speaker 7: extension with Griffin since the beginning of March. But if

1420
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:15,800
Speaker 7: he signed that extension before playing a game in the

1421
01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:19,519
Speaker 7: Major League, he's no longer eligible to get them that

1422
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:23,320
Speaker 7: draft compensation should he win those awards. So I know

1423
01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:25,800
Speaker 7: that could be a little bit confusing, but so there's

1424
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:29,920
Speaker 7: some incentive behind all this, you know, contract hooplock. So

1425
01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:33,960
Speaker 7: he gets promoted on Thursday. Everyone's celebrating, and I've been

1426
01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:37,160
Speaker 7: following all this pretty thoroughly because you know, the extension

1427
01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:39,479
Speaker 7: is a is a piece of the puzzle, but typically

1428
01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:43,960
Speaker 7: the promotion is something that would activate the extension. Talk

1429
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:49,400
Speaker 7: not necessarily, oh okay, promotion extension. They weren't mutually exclusively. Yeah,

1430
01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:51,519
Speaker 7: they weren't like a one and one A and one

1431
01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:52,479
Speaker 7: B type of thing here.

1432
01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 8: So he gets caught up.

1433
01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:59,720
Speaker 7: And then a report comes out saying he's in the

1434
01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:02,920
Speaker 7: prose of finalizing this deal, that they're still working on it.

1435
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:05,880
Speaker 7: But they threw out a direct number and a length

1436
01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:10,200
Speaker 7: of contract, and to be candid, those don't align with

1437
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:13,280
Speaker 7: the terms that I've been told, uh are are in

1438
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:15,800
Speaker 7: the mix right now. So I was a little confused

1439
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:19,599
Speaker 7: when I saw that. I talked to five different sources

1440
01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:23,800
Speaker 7: and everyone told me that there was no deal. But

1441
01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 7: at that point in time, you know, when you're a reporter.

1442
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:27,120
Speaker 8: What do you do?

1443
01:11:27,280 --> 01:11:28,880
Speaker 7: Do you sit there and refute it or do you

1444
01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:32,120
Speaker 7: just wait to see if someone else has something similar?

1445
01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:36,360
Speaker 3: And so sores are telling you at the time, like, yeah,

1446
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 3: everybody's saying this deal is out there and he's cool

1447
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:40,439
Speaker 3: with it, and.

1448
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:42,320
Speaker 2: That's just not true.

1449
01:11:43,320 --> 01:11:45,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, but you did you just not want to

1450
01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:48,520
Speaker 3: ruin everyone's good times.

1451
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:51,240
Speaker 7: It's more just like, you know, I didn't want to

1452
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:54,920
Speaker 7: get into a source war with ESPN, like because because

1453
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:59,479
Speaker 7: there's a buster only right, there's a buster only report, right, Yeah, exactly,

1454
01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:02,400
Speaker 7: And I'm I'm not sitting here trying to make it

1455
01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:05,400
Speaker 7: about me and me versus this pian or whatever. I

1456
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:07,599
Speaker 7: just said, you know what, let's let this play out

1457
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:10,080
Speaker 7: and see what happened. Maybe he's right. Even if the

1458
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:14,200
Speaker 7: people who I'm talking to, some of them are directly

1459
01:12:14,280 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 7: involved in all of this, are telling me. One of

1460
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:18,639
Speaker 7: them even said this is BS.

1461
01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:21,320
Speaker 8: I was just like, all right, well, let's just wake

1462
01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:22,240
Speaker 8: this out and see.

1463
01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:26,840
Speaker 7: Because to my understanding, the contract negotiation talk didn't really

1464
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:31,280
Speaker 7: even resume until Easter Sunday, So when he was up

1465
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:35,120
Speaker 7: making a debut on Friday and playing Saturday, and everyone's

1466
01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:39,240
Speaker 7: thinking this, you know, is just kind of a given,

1467
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:40,760
Speaker 7: like he's going to play a couple of games and

1468
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:43,519
Speaker 7: then they have this handshake you already worked out and signed.

1469
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:45,080
Speaker 8: That just wasn't the case.

1470
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:47,840
Speaker 7: They're still working this out now. If you were to

1471
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:49,960
Speaker 7: ask me if I think a contract extension is going

1472
01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:52,120
Speaker 7: to get done, I do think it's going to get done.

1473
01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,400
Speaker 7: If you're looking for a date to pay attention to,

1474
01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:58,640
Speaker 7: it's April fourteen. Because if this, if this extension or

1475
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:02,479
Speaker 7: any extension is and after April fourteenth, it goes into

1476
01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:06,200
Speaker 7: effect next season, meaning that Connor Griffin continues to play

1477
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:09,000
Speaker 7: this whole year under the salary that he's making now.

1478
01:13:09,880 --> 01:13:12,799
Speaker 7: And if that's the case, then whatever terms are agreed

1479
01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:16,080
Speaker 7: to after April fourteenth are going to be a lot

1480
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:18,760
Speaker 7: more expensive because the pirates just got him for free

1481
01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:21,800
Speaker 7: for a year. So the pirates in his camp, they're

1482
01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:26,120
Speaker 7: both instentivized to get this deal done by Tuesday. So

1483
01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:29,720
Speaker 7: I do anticipate a deal eventually getting done. I've been

1484
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,479
Speaker 7: told that, you know, there have been extensive talk they

1485
01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:35,120
Speaker 7: picked up earlier this week. But the reporting that was

1486
01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:41,360
Speaker 7: done last week throwing out the nine one figure I'm.

1487
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:42,080
Speaker 8: Not sure that was the most accurate.

1488
01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:47,719
Speaker 12: No, fifteen a year relative to those figures, that seems

1489
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:48,680
Speaker 12: like a lot less than he.

1490
01:13:48,680 --> 01:13:52,920
Speaker 2: Would get if he just waits. Yeah, why is Connor

1491
01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:53,960
Speaker 2: Griffin interested in this?

1492
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,519
Speaker 7: I mean, well, I think his age plays a factor.

1493
01:13:58,000 --> 01:13:58,600
Speaker 8: You look at it.

1494
01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 7: I mean, anything he's signed less than ten years, He's

1495
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:05,679
Speaker 7: still gonna hit free agency before his thirtieth birthday, which

1496
01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:08,040
Speaker 7: means he would be in position to make two nine

1497
01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:10,680
Speaker 7: figure payds. And you just don't see a lot of

1498
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,760
Speaker 7: professional athletes with that opportunity. So, I mean, and this

1499
01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:17,400
Speaker 7: is a kid who he's been vocal about, like he's

1500
01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:20,920
Speaker 7: been appreciative of his experience in the Pirates organization. They've

1501
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:22,519
Speaker 7: done right by him in a lot of ways. They

1502
01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:26,200
Speaker 7: signed him above slot value, and they drafted him obviously,

1503
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:30,360
Speaker 7: They've let him develop in his own way. They've sometimes

1504
01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:32,799
Speaker 7: been a little two hands on with their hitting prospects.

1505
01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:35,640
Speaker 7: It hasn't been the case with Connor Griffin. They've let

1506
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,040
Speaker 7: him kind of develop in his own way to become

1507
01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:40,280
Speaker 7: the hitter that he is, and obviously that's worked.

1508
01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:41,800
Speaker 8: So he likes this.

1509
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,960
Speaker 7: And then yeah, I mean the money, it's could he

1510
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:46,800
Speaker 7: get a lot more in free agency in a couple

1511
01:14:46,840 --> 01:14:49,559
Speaker 7: of years, sure, But I think he's he's looking at

1512
01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:51,720
Speaker 7: the big picture here. I mean, this is a kid

1513
01:14:51,760 --> 01:14:54,680
Speaker 7: who's from a very small town in Mississippi. Pittsburgh's a

1514
01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:55,439
Speaker 7: big city to him.

1515
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,320
Speaker 8: So the idea of Okay, well.

1516
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:58,560
Speaker 7: I'll just play here for a couple of years and

1517
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:01,200
Speaker 7: then both to LA I don't know if that's something

1518
01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:05,439
Speaker 7: he's necessarily all about. So it's a it's a good

1519
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:08,439
Speaker 7: way to get some security, to secure, you know, a

1520
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:12,360
Speaker 7: nice payday, to uh, you know, plant roots in a

1521
01:15:12,439 --> 01:15:14,760
Speaker 7: town that he's come to like. And at the end

1522
01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 7: of the day, when he's twenty eight to twenty nine

1523
01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:20,040
Speaker 7: years old, he'll still have that opportunity to get probably

1524
01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:22,599
Speaker 7: a double if not triple payday down the line.

1525
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:25,559
Speaker 2: So could this change once he actually gets to LA.

1526
01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:34,519
Speaker 8: Wow, Yeah, you gotta you put him on the IL

1527
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:38,080
Speaker 8: for this, you know, Yeah, he can.

1528
01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:40,960
Speaker 7: He's only allowed to play road games in like Cincinnati.

1529
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,519
Speaker 3: Well no, And let me ask you this, does the

1530
01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:52,880
Speaker 3: Pirates willingness to shell out what previously we'd always thought

1531
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:56,439
Speaker 3: they were going to never fork over to somebody like

1532
01:15:56,520 --> 01:16:03,200
Speaker 3: Connor Griffin, does that spell any potential possibility that they

1533
01:16:03,240 --> 01:16:05,439
Speaker 3: would be willing to figure out a way to keep

1534
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 3: Paul Skins too.

1535
01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:10,640
Speaker 7: I mean, I think they would want to keep Paul Skiings. Uh,

1536
01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:13,160
Speaker 7: but you know what I mean, like, yeah, no, this

1537
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:18,000
Speaker 7: is it's a totally different situation here because they're so

1538
01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:20,720
Speaker 7: far into this process with schemes now where it's like

1539
01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:25,320
Speaker 7: he's he's just too far out of their price point

1540
01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:29,400
Speaker 7: because he's already I mean, if Paul Skins assuming next year,

1541
01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:31,759
Speaker 7: like there's there's a good chance we don't have baseball

1542
01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:34,360
Speaker 7: next year because of the lockout, which is also pushing

1543
01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:38,400
Speaker 7: the priority of extending Connor Griffin because any deal that

1544
01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:41,880
Speaker 7: gets done prior to the lockout gets grandfathered into whatever

1545
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:43,240
Speaker 7: do economic.

1546
01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:44,200
Speaker 8: System baseball falls under.

1547
01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:47,280
Speaker 7: So if there's a salary cap, whatever they're paying Griffin

1548
01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:51,880
Speaker 7: doesn't affect the cap. So with schemes, if you're Paul Skins,

1549
01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:54,320
Speaker 7: you're looking at it, this team has you under control

1550
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:57,960
Speaker 7: for three more years after this year you might lose

1551
01:16:58,120 --> 01:17:00,599
Speaker 7: one of those years just because of the locked out,

1552
01:17:01,160 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 7: and then the Pirates aren't going to take him all

1553
01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:06,000
Speaker 7: the way down the line, So this might be one

1554
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:08,240
Speaker 7: of his final years in Pittsburgh to begin with. So

1555
01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:13,559
Speaker 7: unless he really really really wants to stay free agency

1556
01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:17,040
Speaker 7: so close where it wouldn't make monetary sense for Paul's

1557
01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 7: teams to sign here unless the Pirates paid him. You

1558
01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 7: know what, the Dodgers would have been able to pay

1559
01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:26,960
Speaker 7: him a couple of years the Yankees. And if that's

1560
01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:30,479
Speaker 7: the case, I mean, even if they could match those numbers,

1561
01:17:30,520 --> 01:17:33,320
Speaker 7: I mean, if you could get the same money from

1562
01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:35,800
Speaker 7: the Dodgers but also play for the Dodgers, I mean

1563
01:17:35,840 --> 01:17:37,920
Speaker 7: the Pirates they're playing better and I think teams like

1564
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,120
Speaker 7: the year. But who wouldn't want to play on one

1565
01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:41,920
Speaker 7: of those teams right now? Look at them, they're loaded.

1566
01:17:42,040 --> 01:17:42,240
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1567
01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:45,400
Speaker 3: And he has been la too, right, so yeah he

1568
01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:51,840
Speaker 3: has yes, yeah, And while former teammates have supposedly said

1569
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:53,800
Speaker 3: that he has talked about wanting to play for the

1570
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:59,160
Speaker 3: Yankees already, so yeah, his aspirations melee elsewhere. Noah Hiles

1571
01:17:59,200 --> 01:18:01,439
Speaker 3: from the Post eat stuff, Buddy, I really appreciate you

1572
01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:02,599
Speaker 3: making time for us this morning.

1573
01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:04,960
Speaker 7: Absolutely, guys always happy to come on.

1574
01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:06,760
Speaker 2: Okay man, thanks so much. So there you go.

1575
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:09,840
Speaker 3: That explains things a little bit. It never made sense

1576
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:12,320
Speaker 3: those figures that were put out there. It's like, why

1577
01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:15,040
Speaker 3: would he only sign for this? But don't you think

1578
01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:16,960
Speaker 3: it's gonna be hard as a reporter because you know

1579
01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:20,240
Speaker 3: you're part of the negotiation game. So each source that's

1580
01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:22,120
Speaker 3: getting filtered to you, like you have to kind of

1581
01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:24,280
Speaker 3: pass that through a filter, being like, am I getting

1582
01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:26,800
Speaker 3: played because it's the information that I'm giving out?

1583
01:18:26,840 --> 01:18:29,960
Speaker 4: Does that gives which which party does give more leverage

1584
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 4: to him?

1585
01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:30,559
Speaker 8: Yeah?

1586
01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:33,280
Speaker 2: I like the way he's handling that, like he's he's

1587
01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 2: reporting his stuff. You can't.

1588
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:43,640
Speaker 12: Verify or yeah, or discount everything that's out there from everybody,

1589
01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:46,960
Speaker 12: like you do your job and other people do their job,

1590
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:48,519
Speaker 12: and you see who does it better.

1591
01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:49,320
Speaker 2: Right.

1592
01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:55,160
Speaker 4: It's a tricky situation though to me, because we always.

1593
01:18:56,400 --> 01:18:59,320
Speaker 3: Like if you like, if you're his editor, how do

1594
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:02,479
Speaker 3: you want to present that, like, oh, only he's got this, Well,

1595
01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:06,160
Speaker 3: we're gonna assume Buster only has impeccable sources on this

1596
01:19:06,800 --> 01:19:08,200
Speaker 3: just because of well I.

1597
01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 12: Would assume him and say, Joe Blow has this what

1598
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,679
Speaker 12: do you got Yeah, and as he told me, because

1599
01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:18,320
Speaker 12: I have nothing like that's not my information is that

1600
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 12: he's incorrect.

1601
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:22,120
Speaker 3: You don't report incorrect stuff, or you don't report that

1602
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 3: someone else has it wrong. Okay, I see what you're saying. Yeah,

1603
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:31,360
Speaker 3: you know, look journalism and the ethics tenets of journalism

1604
01:19:31,600 --> 01:19:35,200
Speaker 3: or you know, kind of a lost and we're going

1605
01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:37,679
Speaker 3: to talk to PFT comment or about his buddy Diana

1606
01:19:37,760 --> 01:19:45,120
Speaker 3: Rossini supposedly caught in uh well uh canoodling with Mike Rabel,

1607
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 3: which it might be the first time Rabel's ever cannodled.

1608
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:47,920
Speaker 2: I'm not sure.

1609
01:19:49,040 --> 01:19:52,040
Speaker 3: Seems to me not much of a cuddler. But he

1610
01:19:52,240 --> 01:19:55,960
Speaker 3: and Diana Rossini holding hands at a resort in Sedona,

1611

1629
01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:53,519
Speaker 3: I just started ripping out the vanity and tearing drywall out,

1630
01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:54,240
Speaker 3: and my wife came home.

1631
01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:56,840
Speaker 2: It's like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Like what

1632
01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:57,639
Speaker 2: are you doing?

1633
01:20:57,760 --> 01:20:59,920
Speaker 3: I was like, well, you're always complaining about the bath

1634
01:21:00,120 --> 01:21:01,960
Speaker 3: room and everything. I was like, I'll just start. She's like,

1635
01:21:02,040 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 3: plumbers are like six weeks out. You know, if you

1636
01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:06,479
Speaker 3: order something, you're not getting it the next day. Like,

1637
01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:08,360
Speaker 3: what's the plan here? I was like, I don't have one.

1638
01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:10,840
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna tear it up and swear a lot

1639
01:21:10,960 --> 01:21:13,120
Speaker 3: and we'll see what happens. So how'd the first one go?

1640
01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:16,240
Speaker 3: First one was a slog but it turned out good.

1641
01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:19,320
Speaker 3: But I also have a neighbor that does drywall. So

1642
01:21:19,479 --> 01:21:23,160
Speaker 3: that was a absolute saver. So I don't do any

1643
01:21:23,200 --> 01:21:25,760
Speaker 3: plumbing or electrical work myself like that I'll do, but

1644
01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:26,920
Speaker 3: this one I don't have to do any of that.

1645
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:29,200
Speaker 3: I just like ripping stuff up. I could do a

1646
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:31,920
Speaker 3: little bit of tiework and uh. And so that's we're

1647
01:21:31,960 --> 01:21:33,600
Speaker 3: just gonna see that. The kids are now having to

1648

01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:58,559
Speaker 3: how about that. We're talking to Noahhile no Hiles from

1656
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:03,240
Speaker 3: the PG about Griffin and his contract extension, and Mike

1657
01:22:03,320 --> 01:22:05,080
Speaker 3: Pursuda back in the studio.

1658
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:06,320
Speaker 2: Now, lo and behold.

1659
01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:11,880
Speaker 3: As we hang up with Noah, the Pirates announce they

1660
01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:17,440
Speaker 3: have signed Connor Griffin to a nine year contract extension

1661
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:20,720
Speaker 3: that runs through the twenty thirty four season. Mike, I

1662
01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:22,280
Speaker 3: had to check three or four times to make sure

1663
01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 3: I wasn't getting butt cracked on this.

1664
01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:26,280
Speaker 12: Oh, I got the official Just checked my email and

1665
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:30,040
Speaker 12: I got the official release from the Pirates. According to

1666
01:22:30,080 --> 01:22:33,400
Speaker 12: Bob Nutting, quote signing Connor as a meaningful commitment to

1667
01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:36,479
Speaker 12: this team, this city, and our fans. It reflects our

1668
01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:39,600
Speaker 12: belief in Connor, in this season's club, and in the

1669
01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:44,160
Speaker 12: future of our organization. Ben Sherrington, the general manager, says quote.

1670
01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:48,679
Speaker 12: Since joining the organization, Connor has consistently demonstrated the traits

1671
01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:51,639
Speaker 12: we want in a Pirate, a daily commitment to improvement,

1672
01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:54,680
Speaker 12: a team first mindset, and a strong desire to win.

1673
01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:57,040
Speaker 12: He has met every challenge in front of him, and

1674
01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:59,880
Speaker 12: we're excited to watch him continue that growth alongside his

1675
01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:04,280
Speaker 12: teammates in Pittsburgh. We are thrilled he will be with

1676
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:08,439
Speaker 12: the Pirates for a long time. No numbers though, no,

1677
01:23:08,800 --> 01:23:12,240
Speaker 12: not according to the Pirates. I'm sure they will surface

1678
01:23:12,320 --> 01:23:13,360
Speaker 12: sooner rather than later.

1679
01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:14,640
Speaker 8: But this is.

1680
01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:19,679
Speaker 2: Not something I ever thought would be a possibility me either,

1681
01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:23,679
Speaker 2: me either, never even considered it. Great news.

1682
01:23:23,880 --> 01:23:27,720
Speaker 3: That extension is a pointer departure, hopefully for the organization.

1683
01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:32,320
Speaker 3: As we spoke about with Noah, though the future of

1684
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:35,040
Speaker 3: Paul Skiens seems to be a little out of reach

1685
01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:37,240
Speaker 3: for the buckos.

1686
01:23:37,280 --> 01:23:40,360
Speaker 2: I mean that we kind of understand it all. Yeah, right,

1687
01:23:40,479 --> 01:23:41,200
Speaker 2: But I'll tell you what.

1688
01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:43,559
Speaker 3: I'll take an everyday player who has this much impact,

1689
01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:47,200
Speaker 3: and they do have other pictures who are pretty good.

1690
01:23:47,240 --> 01:23:50,120
Speaker 12: They don't have Paul Skiens, they have Paul Skins. They're

1691
01:23:50,160 --> 01:23:53,240
Speaker 12: not going to have another one of those, but pretty good.

1692
01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:56,280
Speaker 3: Is it now time to say officially thank you to

1693
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:58,640
Speaker 3: all the fans that put pressure on Nutting to the

1694
01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:01,960
Speaker 3: to the single prop engine pilot that flew over the stadium.

1695
01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:05,840
Speaker 3: There were people photo bombing interviews like are we saying

1696
01:24:05,880 --> 01:24:08,360
Speaker 3: that this worked? To the renegades of the rotunda who

1697
01:24:08,439 --> 01:24:11,160
Speaker 3: heckled Bob Nutting and made him do a shame walk

1698
01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:13,960
Speaker 3: as he walked up to his luxury box.

1699
01:24:14,120 --> 01:24:19,760
Speaker 12: You know, that's still the unreported or unknown. What was

1700
01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:23,320
Speaker 12: the catalyst to this really was that there's an impending lockout?

1701
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:27,880
Speaker 12: Was it the pressure that Jeff just referenced. Why was

1702
01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:31,400
Speaker 12: Bob Nutting who he was for so many years? And

1703
01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:32,800
Speaker 12: then why did it change this year?

1704
01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:36,439
Speaker 3: Is there some text code thing that we don't know

1705
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:39,280
Speaker 3: about that this is Connor Griffin? Is they full right off? Now?

1706
01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:39,680
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1707
01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:42,160
Speaker 3: No, I think it is as simple as what we

1708
01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:44,640
Speaker 3: were talking about earlier, with a looming lockout, that he

1709
01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:47,960
Speaker 3: knew he had to do something to get people's butts

1710
01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:51,760
Speaker 3: in the seats this year by season ticket packages.

1711
01:24:51,360 --> 01:24:53,519
Speaker 2: Et cetera, and cashing as much as possible.

1712
01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:56,320
Speaker 3: If they didn't actually have hope for the long term,

1713
01:24:56,800 --> 01:24:58,639
Speaker 3: I don't know that people would be invested the way

1714
01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:00,880
Speaker 3: they needed to. To me, this is you get a

1715
01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:05,000
Speaker 3: couple of advisors financial advisors in the room and they go, well,

1716
01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:06,519
Speaker 3: this is just the smart thing to do.

1717
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:10,720
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean it's always been hard for us to

1718
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,439
Speaker 12: wrap our heads around why would you not spend some

1719
01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:16,519
Speaker 12: more money. You know you're gonna pack that place. People

1720
01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:18,559
Speaker 12: are gonna go crazy. You're gonna make so much more

1721
01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:19,720
Speaker 12: in the long run.

1722
01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:23,960
Speaker 4: But to Jeff's point, he might have been broken last year.

1723
01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:24,640
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1724
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,640
Speaker 3: Maybe that that fan it was pretty hot. I mean

1725
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:30,519
Speaker 3: it was pretty intense last year's to say. I mean,

1726
01:25:30,640 --> 01:25:32,840
Speaker 3: there's always been a little simmering going on, but I

1727
01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:35,479
Speaker 3: felt like last year it boiled over a couple of

1728
01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:37,760
Speaker 3: times where I was like WHOA, Like that was some

1729
01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:41,000
Speaker 3: that was some incendiary.

1730
01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:44,760
Speaker 2: Well, and I think it wasn't just the losing and

1731
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:46,960
Speaker 2: the not signing players.

1732
01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:47,960
Speaker 5: It was the.

1733
01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:53,200
Speaker 12: Taking down the Clementy, Oh, you screwing up the bricks.

1734
01:25:54,120 --> 01:25:57,240
Speaker 12: Screwing up the bricks. Have one of your employees beat

1735
01:25:57,320 --> 01:26:00,559
Speaker 12: a fan? Well, I was in favor pay.

1736
01:26:01,560 --> 01:26:03,320
Speaker 2: I mean there was some stuff that was like even

1737
01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:04,519
Speaker 2: for the pirates, it was like.

1738
01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:09,519
Speaker 12: Took a digger off the one. Yeah, I mean that,

1739
01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:13,920
Speaker 12: and that'll happened in relative rapid Yeah. It was like

1740
01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:16,439
Speaker 12: the most terrible pr months. It's like, what could they

1741
01:26:16,520 --> 01:26:18,840
Speaker 12: possibly screw up worse next? And they would find a

1742
01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:19,639
Speaker 12: way to find something.

1743
01:26:19,720 --> 01:26:20,759
Speaker 2: Can I go a little deeper?

1744
01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:24,640
Speaker 3: Because the new the new mayor has successfully squeezed a

1745
01:26:24,720 --> 01:26:28,000
Speaker 3: couple owners that haven't been paying maybe their fair share

1746
01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:30,760
Speaker 3: of taxes? Did did maybe have factor into the whole thing,

1747
01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 3: be like hey Bobby, we're giving you some nice tax

1748
01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:36,200
Speaker 3: breaks here and you got eighteen hundred people every night,

1749
01:26:36,400 --> 01:26:39,400
Speaker 3: like it's time to start generating the tax code. Maybe

1750
01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:41,560
Speaker 3: there's some things that could go on, like levers that

1751
01:26:41,600 --> 01:26:44,000
Speaker 3: could have got pulled on that FRONTO. I mean I

1752
01:26:44,080 --> 01:26:49,599
Speaker 3: think did if anything that was one more like layer

1753
01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:51,840
Speaker 3: to it, I don't know that it had enough weight

1754
01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:54,920
Speaker 3: to do very much that was part of the pressure

1755
01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:57,360
Speaker 3: from the mayor's office. Yeah, yeah, you know, but more

1756
01:26:57,479 --> 01:27:00,320
Speaker 3: corporate wise, you know, if there was some sort of

1757
01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:03,680
Speaker 3: corporate allegiance like hey, but if Surf Side Vodka say hey,

1758
01:27:03,760 --> 01:27:07,360
Speaker 3: get your act together, pal, Yeah, More like if US

1759
01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:10,639
Speaker 3: Steel and U'll POC are like, hey, we're giving money

1760
01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:15,559
Speaker 3: that we don't have to. Yeah one, yeah, how about

1761
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:18,360
Speaker 3: we make sure this city doesn't collapse so we can

1762
01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:23,720
Speaker 3: say now with certainty they're actually trying. I mean, you

1763
01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:26,639
Speaker 3: gotta give him credit for this. It's hard to look

1764
01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:29,760
Speaker 3: at this and have any negative bend.

1765
01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:33,040
Speaker 2: If there's a DVS angle to this, I can't figure

1766
01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:38,880
Speaker 2: out what it is, only that here it is with

1767
01:27:39,080 --> 01:27:41,160
Speaker 2: Bob Nutting. There's got to be a TV.

1768
01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:44,639
Speaker 3: You just know that he's like, all right, this one time,

1769
01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:49,200
Speaker 3: I'll do it, and then it'll never happen again. It

1770
01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:52,200
Speaker 3: needs to be followed up by similar moves. Now they've

1771
01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:57,200
Speaker 3: made great baseball moves and fortifying the offense and the

1772
01:27:57,600 --> 01:27:59,280
Speaker 3: and the rotation, right, I.

1773
01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:01,559
Speaker 12: Mean, this kid's an You're not going to sign every

1774
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:03,720
Speaker 12: first round pick to a deal like this.

1775
01:28:03,840 --> 01:28:07,560
Speaker 3: Bob Notting's like, hey, everybody, we signed Connor Griffin congratulations.

1776
01:28:07,600 --> 01:28:08,760
Speaker 2: Hey, look over there for a minute.

1777
01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:10,640
Speaker 3: Also in a press release, we are going to be

1778
01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:12,960
Speaker 3: burying uranium under seven springs.

1779
01:28:13,160 --> 01:28:16,320
Speaker 2: So anyway, Connor Griffin, everybody, you know, he sold that

1780
01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:18,080
Speaker 2: to Veil Resorts. He doesn't even know.

1781
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:21,880
Speaker 3: I think it'll be more like you, like, I'll have

1782
01:28:21,920 --> 01:28:23,960
Speaker 3: a bud light and then they're like, that'll be seventy

1783
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:27,840
Speaker 3: eight dollars with the Connor Griffin tax underneath, yes, passed on.

1784
01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:30,120
Speaker 3: Pirate fans would pay the KG tax. They would have

1785
01:28:30,240 --> 01:28:31,720
Speaker 3: no problem with that. I mean, if that's sort of

1786
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:34,280
Speaker 3: beer costs, that's sort of beer cost They cost a lot.

1787
01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:39,640
Speaker 3: Apparently there was some review of average beer prices per

1788
01:28:39,800 --> 01:28:42,400
Speaker 3: park and the PNC park beer price was like nine

1789
01:28:42,439 --> 01:28:43,519
Speaker 3: dollars and twelve cents.

1790
01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:45,080
Speaker 2: I got to be honest with you, I don't know

1791
01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:47,360
Speaker 2: where you find a place.

1792
01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 3: No way, maybe that's the average after you sneak to

1793
01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:55,800
Speaker 3: into your cargo pockets. Yeah, and you buy one, it's

1794
01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:58,800
Speaker 3: at least twelve bucks. I mean, as you get the uh,

1795
01:28:59,840 --> 01:29:03,799
Speaker 3: the mortar shells, I hate them, yeah, and they're fifteen

1796
01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:04,720
Speaker 3: bucks or whatever them.

1797
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:05,080
Speaker 8: Ye?

1798
01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:09,439
Speaker 3: Why because you have to drink them so fast in

1799
01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:12,600
Speaker 3: order to enjoy it is true the beer, and I

1800
01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:15,840
Speaker 3: don't want to have to I don't so I had

1801
01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:20,280
Speaker 3: six beers by the end of the second innings. Well,

1802
01:29:20,439 --> 01:29:22,000
Speaker 3: I you know, sometimes I don't want to have that

1803
01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:25,679
Speaker 3: many that fast. I'd rather have like a delicious, refreshing beer.

1804
01:29:26,160 --> 01:29:27,799
Speaker 3: But there's something about a pounder.

1805
01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:30,280
Speaker 4: No powder's fine, twenty four ounces.

1806
01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:32,000
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that's true. That's true.

1807
01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:34,720
Speaker 4: It's like a powder I'm all in for. But the

1808
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:38,160
Speaker 4: twenty four ounces come on, that's true.

1809
01:29:38,280 --> 01:29:41,360
Speaker 2: It's just like spit. I don't know. I think that

1810
01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:42,320
Speaker 2: means party time.

1811
01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:45,400
Speaker 3: I hate that last Those last three swigs out of

1812
01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:49,120
Speaker 3: that are that are always nasty unless you're really getting

1813
01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:51,519
Speaker 3: after it, and then you can only go so long.

1814
01:29:51,600 --> 01:29:53,960
Speaker 3: This is what I'm saying, Mike. I'm like, it's a marathon,

1815
01:29:54,080 --> 01:29:57,799
Speaker 3: not a sprint. It's all I'm saying. He's a sprinting

1816
01:29:57,880 --> 01:29:58,639
Speaker 3: coast kind of guy.

1817
01:29:58,720 --> 01:29:59,280
Speaker 2: It's a game.

1818
01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:03,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well, I don't want to have six beers

1819
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:07,000
Speaker 3: and throw two innings sometimes, but sometimes I like that

1820
01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:07,880
Speaker 3: one or two beers.

1821
01:30:07,960 --> 01:30:10,080
Speaker 2: I like having it available to me. I don't say.

1822
01:30:10,080 --> 01:30:12,599
Speaker 3: I don't mind so much when it gets warm. Well,

1823
01:30:12,640 --> 01:30:15,120
Speaker 3: here's the good news today, your beer will stay cold.

1824
01:30:15,200 --> 01:30:18,400
Speaker 3: A twelve thirty five stars and it's only going to

1825
01:30:18,439 --> 01:30:19,240
Speaker 3: be in the I.

1826
01:30:19,240 --> 01:30:21,040
Speaker 2: Still can't believe they did this. Some sit here reading

1827
01:30:21,080 --> 01:30:21,439
Speaker 2: this in them.

1828
01:30:22,120 --> 01:30:24,200
Speaker 3: I was actually thinking as we were talking to No

1829
01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:27,120
Speaker 3: and he said that he thought it was gonna happen. Yeah,

1830
01:30:27,560 --> 01:30:31,479
Speaker 3: that I was surprised that that was his information, because

1831
01:30:31,560 --> 01:30:34,360
Speaker 3: that skeptic in me thought, like, you know, that was

1832
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:37,320
Speaker 3: some BS floater that they gave to Buster only to

1833
01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:39,800
Speaker 3: appease the fans and bring them up and just create

1834
01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:43,040
Speaker 3: some subterfuse, because that is totally a Bob Nutting move,

1835
01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:44,320
Speaker 3: or maybe an agent trying.

1836
01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:47,240
Speaker 12: To pressure the team, Like if people expect it's going

1837
01:30:47,320 --> 01:30:48,400
Speaker 12: to happen, then you have to make it.

1838
01:30:48,479 --> 01:30:52,880
Speaker 3: Even more pressure pressure happens, or it gets thrown on

1839
01:30:52,960 --> 01:30:54,240
Speaker 3: top of Bob Nutting and company.

1840
01:30:54,320 --> 01:30:57,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe that pressure makes diamonds and they play on

1841
01:30:57,200 --> 01:30:59,280
Speaker 2: a diamond and that might have been what happened there.

1842
01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:03,160
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I'm however, I'm shocked. This is

1843
01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:03,799
Speaker 2: a revelation.

1844
01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:07,000
Speaker 4: The kid is amazing. He's fun to watch, and you

1845
01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:07,679
Speaker 4: get to watch.

1846
01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:10,840
Speaker 2: Him every day. It seems like a guy that would

1847
01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:12,240
Speaker 2: be easy to root for, A.

1848
01:31:12,280 --> 01:31:17,360
Speaker 3: Nice young man married at nineteen has a Christian rock band,

1849
01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:23,280
Speaker 3: walk up Music. You know, every night the guy is tasteful,

Speaker 3: mustache and go tea combo. Everybody in his family's name

1851
01:31:26,479 --> 01:31:32,240
Speaker 3: starts with a K, but hopefully he won't be registering

1852
01:31:32,280 --> 01:31:33,120
Speaker 3: them at the plate mic.

1853
01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:38,200
Speaker 2: Last night, two for four drove in a couple scored ones.

1854
01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:39,240
Speaker 2: He doesn't strike out a lot.

1855
01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:42,439
Speaker 3: He like he strikes out, but when he's had trouble though,

1856
01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:43,639
Speaker 3: I think he's making contact.

1857
01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:45,120
Speaker 2: At this point, it's gonna take.

1858
01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:48,400
Speaker 12: It's not like with Whiff and he's three pitches and

1859
01:31:48,439 --> 01:31:50,439
Speaker 12: it's over and you know he's down, oh two, every

1860
01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:55,800
Speaker 12: everything swimming up there. I mean, it's it's gonna happen

1861
01:31:56,720 --> 01:31:58,560
Speaker 12: as it happens, and we're gonna get to watch it.

1862
01:31:58,640 --> 01:32:00,920
Speaker 12: That's the really cool thing because clearly, I mean he

1863
01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:03,840
Speaker 12: didn't spend very much time in the minor legs, but

1864
01:32:04,120 --> 01:32:06,200
Speaker 12: it was clearly past.

1865
01:32:06,040 --> 01:32:09,280
Speaker 2: That and he's hitting five hundred there. Yeah, I mean, I.

1866
01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:10,880
Speaker 12: Think I think that was I think they waited too

1867
01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:12,920
Speaker 12: long with Skings when they brought him up.

1868
01:32:13,280 --> 01:32:13,479
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1869
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:18,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, was that like midsummer when they brought him up

1870
01:32:18,640 --> 01:32:19,840
Speaker 2: late May, I believe late May.

1871
01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:24,120
Speaker 3: Al Right, Okay, Abby, I'm sorry that we had to

1872

Speaker 3: preempt the news there.

1873
01:32:25,320 --> 01:32:26,639

01:32:26,800 --> 01:32:29,040

Speaker 6: This is going to be tailgate food, but it's elevated,

1885
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:56,920
Speaker 6: so I don't know I reach for it.

1886
01:32:57,240 --> 01:33:00,120
Speaker 2: It's gonna be too high for me to yet. But

1887
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:07,479
Speaker 2: I also imagine that that means more cheat the tailgate food.

1888
01:33:07,520 --> 01:33:09,479
Speaker 6: I just assume that that means yet a little more

1889

Speaker 3: feet per second running the first base. But the biggest news,

1929
01:35:15,240 --> 01:35:17,559
Speaker 3: of course, what we just told you before the commercial break.

1930
01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:23,280
Speaker 3: The Pirates officially signed Connor Griffin to a nine year extension.

1931
01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:29,160
Speaker 2: Now this is what Buster only has. Do you supply

1932
01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:31,240
Speaker 2: I was a little tardy. No, that's fine.

1933
01:35:31,400 --> 01:35:31,960
Speaker 8: Do you have it?

1934
01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:34,679
Speaker 2: Yeah? One hundred and forty million over nine years.

1935
01:35:35,760 --> 01:35:38,240
Speaker 4: Isn't that what he originally said? Yes, so he had

1936
01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:38,599
Speaker 4: it right.

1937
01:35:38,800 --> 01:35:39,320
Speaker 2: Yes, he did.

1938
01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:45,160
Speaker 12: Largest guarantee in Pirates history, according to Jeff Passon and

1939
01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:48,840
Speaker 12: Buster one, and the largest for a player in his

1940
01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:53,880
Speaker 12: rookie season in baseball history. It's a little bit more

1941
01:35:54,320 --> 01:35:57,040
Speaker 12: than the Red Sox gave Roman Anthony last year. Eight

1942
01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:58,240
Speaker 12: years one hundred and thirty.

1943
01:35:58,040 --> 01:36:04,120
Speaker 3: Million, and this kid can actually throw the ball across

1944
01:36:04,240 --> 01:36:07,720
Speaker 3: the infield. Roman Anthony's having a tough time for the

1945
01:36:07,760 --> 01:36:08,599
Speaker 3: outfield that lately.

1946
01:36:09,320 --> 01:36:12,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's this guy too. I mean, his gun

1947
01:36:12,439 --> 01:36:13,559
Speaker 2: ain't where it needs to be though.

1948
01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:17,960
Speaker 12: It's also continuing a trend in baseball. Now third rookie

1949
01:36:17,960 --> 01:36:21,080
Speaker 12: to get a long term extension this spring, in the

1950
01:36:21,120 --> 01:36:25,040
Speaker 12: wake of Seattle signing shortstop Colt Emerson eight years, one

1951
01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:28,559
Speaker 12: hundred eight years ninety five million with a nineteen year

1952
01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:33,120
Speaker 12: club option, and Milwaukee giving shortstop Cooper Pratt fifty point

1953
01:36:33,240 --> 01:36:37,160
Speaker 12: seven to five million over eight seasons with two club options.

1954
01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:41,080
Speaker 12: Both of those figures, according to ESPN, both of those

1955
01:36:41,160 --> 01:36:46,479
Speaker 12: guys are still in Triple A. I just I'm having

1956
01:36:46,479 --> 01:36:49,120
Speaker 12: a hard time wrapping my head around this.

1957
01:36:49,240 --> 01:36:49,400
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1958
01:36:49,439 --> 01:36:53,439
Speaker 3: He seemed to just be completely surprised that they actually

1959
01:36:53,520 --> 01:36:55,640
Speaker 3: an the guy that you know, he'll play here for

1960
01:36:55,720 --> 01:36:59,080
Speaker 3: a while and when he gets to arbitration, or maybe

1961
01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:02,200
Speaker 3: after a year or two of arbitration, bye bye. We

1962
01:37:02,320 --> 01:37:05,719
Speaker 3: were talking about, you know, what's what, what's the upside

1963
01:37:05,760 --> 01:37:08,200
Speaker 3: here for Bob Nutting? And I just had a friend

1964
01:37:08,200 --> 01:37:11,200
Speaker 3: of mine text me and he said, the team is

1965
01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:16,840
Speaker 3: worth significantly more with a marketable young star, So potentially

1966
01:37:17,240 --> 01:37:21,280
Speaker 3: this might be Bob nutting signaling he's trying to pump

1967
01:37:21,360 --> 01:37:24,559
Speaker 3: up the value before a potential exit, which I think

1968
01:37:24,640 --> 01:37:26,040
Speaker 3: is a very interesting point.

1969
01:37:25,840 --> 01:37:29,519
Speaker 2: Pretty theory. I think, I don't know.

1970
01:37:31,080 --> 01:37:32,240
Speaker 5: Something besides.

1971
01:37:33,760 --> 01:37:34,160
Speaker 7: Of your heart.

1972
01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:37,320
Speaker 3: No, I think it's a smart business move, and it

1973
01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:39,240
Speaker 3: does increase the valuation of the team.

1974
01:37:39,320 --> 01:37:39,760
Speaker 2: Don't forget.

1975
01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:42,800
Speaker 3: I mean he has amassed over a billion dollars in

1976
01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:46,519
Speaker 3: value on this team from the purchase price, so he's

1977
01:37:46,600 --> 01:37:48,120
Speaker 3: already done pretty good.

1978
01:37:48,200 --> 01:37:49,960
Speaker 2: Sure having this guy in there.

1979
01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:54,400
Speaker 3: I don't know how much it changes the valuation of

1980
01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:59,680
Speaker 3: the organization, but I would imagine it's appreciably higher that

1981
01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:00,360
Speaker 3: he said.

1982
01:38:00,439 --> 01:38:04,080
Speaker 2: I don't see him selling it. If anything, I.

1983
01:38:04,120 --> 01:38:06,120
Speaker 3: See him doubling down and going, no, I want to

1984
01:38:06,240 --> 01:38:11,679
Speaker 3: create a you know, three billion dollar team and then dump.

1985
01:38:11,520 --> 01:38:13,479
Speaker 2: It in a couple of years.

1986
01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:16,400
Speaker 12: Depends, Yeah, what the long term plan is for their

1987
01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:19,360
Speaker 12: family and does somebody want to take over is there?

1988
01:38:19,640 --> 01:38:21,759
Speaker 2: Don't does he even have kids? I have no idea

1989
01:38:23,160 --> 01:38:26,040
Speaker 2: that I don't know anything about him other than he's

1990
01:38:26,080 --> 01:38:27,000
Speaker 2: a reviled.

1991
01:38:26,680 --> 01:38:29,840
Speaker 3: Chiefs well, his dad was supposedly such a chief skate

1992
01:38:30,280 --> 01:38:35,160
Speaker 3: that he would take like his own condiment packets, like

1993
01:38:36,439 --> 01:38:39,559
Speaker 3: around the restaurants and stuff, and he didn't like getting

1994
01:38:39,640 --> 01:38:43,800
Speaker 3: charged extra for anything ever, so he would I don't know.

1995
01:38:43,960 --> 01:38:45,960
Speaker 3: I think he would nickel and diamond, like doing the

1996
01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:46,760
Speaker 3: warm Buffett thing.

1997
01:38:46,840 --> 01:38:46,960
Speaker 8: You know.

1998
01:38:47,120 --> 01:38:49,280
Speaker 3: I think the interesting thing is that the Pirates actually

1999
01:38:49,320 --> 01:38:52,040
Speaker 3: paid Connor Griffin with Bob Nuttings communion money, which I

2000
01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:56,160
Speaker 3: think is a very strange. That's a very interesting No. Yeah,

2001
01:38:56,200 --> 01:39:01,800
Speaker 3: imagine them pulling it from Gick. I don't care. I

2002
01:39:01,920 --> 01:39:03,400
Speaker 3: want to be happy about it. I don't want to

2003
01:39:03,880 --> 01:39:06,400
Speaker 3: even worry about his motivation for doing this. It's just

2004
01:39:06,479 --> 01:39:08,439
Speaker 3: so fun to watch the Pirates right now, and it's

2005
01:39:08,479 --> 01:39:10,760
Speaker 3: been so long since it's been fun in April to

2006
01:39:10,840 --> 01:39:12,000
Speaker 3: watch the Pirates.

2007
01:39:11,840 --> 01:39:15,360
Speaker 2: And you know the reaction now, I mean, people know

2008
01:39:15,400 --> 01:39:16,360
Speaker 2: they're going to have this guy.

2009
01:39:18,000 --> 01:39:18,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2010
01:39:18,400 --> 01:39:20,559
Speaker 12: It's one of the biggest drawbacks to being a Pirate

2011
01:39:20,640 --> 01:39:22,280
Speaker 12: fan was, you know, do you want to buy a

2012
01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:23,559
Speaker 12: guy's jersey and then he's gone.

2013
01:39:23,640 --> 01:39:26,080
Speaker 3: Let me tell you I I sort of would dabble

2014
01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:28,640
Speaker 3: getting like a Pirate's like ten pack of tickets, you know,

2015
01:39:28,760 --> 01:39:31,720
Speaker 3: every summer, and last this past summer, I was like,

2016
01:39:31,720 --> 01:39:33,800
Speaker 3: I'm not doing this like no way. And then they

2017
01:39:33,840 --> 01:39:36,479
Speaker 3: were calling this spring saying like, hey, you want to

2018
01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:38,320
Speaker 3: re up and I was like, no, you guys were

2019
01:39:38,360 --> 01:39:39,920
Speaker 3: a train wreck last year. I was like, I'm not

2020
01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,280
Speaker 3: I'm not even taking this call. And now guess what

2021
01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:45,479
Speaker 3: I'm probably gonna do. I'm probably I'm I'm just a

2022
01:39:45,560 --> 01:39:48,120
Speaker 3: little more interested in that in those tickets than I

2023
01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:51,760
Speaker 3: was before to get Yeah, and exactly because you're gonna

2024
01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:55,320
Speaker 3: want to take your kids there, absolutely, And with Connor Griffin,

2025
01:39:55,320 --> 01:39:59,400
Speaker 3: you get to see him every day, every day a

2026
01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:03,600
Speaker 3: little different, not just Paul Skien's day. It doesn't have

2027
01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:08,360
Speaker 3: to be a holiday appointment. And if they stay relevant, Mike,

2028
01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:11,479
Speaker 3: it becomes so much more fun. On a weekend when

2029
01:40:11,560 --> 01:40:16,680
Speaker 3: they're playing the Brewers and Sunday even in May, they

2030
01:40:16,760 --> 01:40:18,280
Speaker 3: can take a lead in the division.

2031
01:40:18,640 --> 01:40:20,400
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, you're going, oh, let's go, let's

2032
01:40:20,439 --> 01:40:21,840
Speaker 2: go to the game. This is going to be fun.

2033
01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:24,200
Speaker 3: And then the crowds are crazy and they actually are

2034
01:40:24,280 --> 01:40:26,799
Speaker 3: invested in what's at stake. Which has been the biggest

2035
01:40:26,840 --> 01:40:29,000
Speaker 3: problem in that park for so long is it never

2036
01:40:29,200 --> 01:40:36,519
Speaker 3: meant anything? And now, God, it would just be so

2037
01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:40,599
Speaker 3: fun if he continued along this path of investing back

2038
01:40:40,640 --> 01:40:42,559
Speaker 3: in the team. Let's hope he does, but for now,

2039
01:40:42,640 --> 01:40:46,360
Speaker 3: let's just celebrate Connor Griffin is a Pittsburgh Pirate for

2040
01:40:46,479 --> 01:40:47,080
Speaker 3: nine more years.

2041
01:40:47,080 --> 01:40:51,200
Speaker 12: I mean, this is a landmark deal. But the off

2042
01:40:51,280 --> 01:40:57,679
Speaker 12: season was appreciably different this year. And I know Ozoon

2043
01:40:57,800 --> 01:40:59,960
Speaker 12: is off to a tough start, and you know, yeah,

2044
01:41:00,479 --> 01:41:03,080
Speaker 12: Law doesn't have much range at second base, but these

2045
01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:06,280
Speaker 12: are major league players. You know, Soto is a left

2046
01:41:06,280 --> 01:41:10,040
Speaker 12: handed reliever. He's not a closer, but he's a legit pitcher.

2047
01:41:10,160 --> 01:41:11,960
Speaker 12: Like they went out and got guys.

2048
01:41:11,760 --> 01:41:17,120
Speaker 3: That do this to to me, like o'hearne, Lao, like

2049
01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:19,800
Speaker 3: these kind of people who have been on successful teams.

2050
01:41:19,880 --> 01:41:22,160
Speaker 3: Right now, to me, the Pirates team feels like an

2051
01:41:22,200 --> 01:41:25,680
Speaker 3: episode of bar Rescue and like o'hearne and Loo are

2052
01:41:25,720 --> 01:41:27,600
Speaker 3: the guy coming and be like what are we doing here? Like, no,

2053
01:41:27,720 --> 01:41:29,360
Speaker 3: we're not doing that anymore. Like you got to get

2054
01:41:29,400 --> 01:41:31,479
Speaker 3: your act together, and it seems like that influence has

2055
01:41:31,520 --> 01:41:33,519
Speaker 3: already felt. I saw Brandon Low there was a piece

2056
01:41:33,560 --> 01:41:36,839
Speaker 3: of trash, like a popcorn bag that was blowing across

2057
01:41:37,479 --> 01:41:40,120
Speaker 3: panc Park and he went out of his way, stepped

2058
01:41:40,160 --> 01:41:41,639
Speaker 3: on it, picked it up, and put it in his pocket.

2059
01:41:41,680 --> 01:41:44,320
Speaker 3: I was like, that is leadership right there. That is

2060
01:41:44,600 --> 01:41:48,200
Speaker 3: leadership right there. I'm just surprised he had servant leadership.

2061
01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:50,439
Speaker 3: I'm surprised he had the lateral movement to do that.

2062
01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:55,840
Speaker 3: He had a step on it. First, A kid, I kid,

2063
01:41:55,920 --> 01:41:57,600
Speaker 3: one of our best hitters. You know, Griffin went to

2064
01:41:57,720 --> 01:41:59,439
Speaker 3: for four last night, his first two hit game.

2065
01:41:59,600 --> 01:42:00,599
Speaker 2: No, yeah, three hits.

2066
01:42:01,240 --> 01:42:04,200
Speaker 12: He's batten one seventy six as he evolves at the

2067
01:42:04,280 --> 01:42:07,320
Speaker 12: major league level, but it was his fifth game. Pirates

2068
01:42:07,320 --> 01:42:09,439
Speaker 12: speaks to Padres seven to one. They're four and one.

2069
01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:13,840
Speaker 12: Since he got here, proofs in the pudding. Let's do

2070
01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:15,960
Speaker 12: a quick break, can come back, play short and also

2071
01:42:16,040 --> 01:42:18,000
Speaker 12: run into the outfield after fly balls.

2072
01:42:19,360 --> 01:42:21,960
Speaker 3: I mean, you're just gonna see Connor Griffin jerseys all

2073
01:42:22,280 --> 01:42:22,960
Speaker 3: over the place.

2074
01:42:23,040 --> 01:42:23,200
Speaker 8: Now.

2075
01:42:24,360 --> 01:42:25,799
Speaker 2: This is such a fun development.

2076
01:42:26,040 --> 01:42:26,599
Speaker 5: So psyched.

2077
01:42:26,840 --> 01:42:30,479
Speaker 3: Also, Hey, not for nothing, Pittsburgh Penguins our playoff bound.

2078
01:42:30,680 --> 01:42:33,200
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk to Phil Bork, the old two niner,

2079
01:42:33,400 --> 01:42:34,800
Speaker 3: when we come back from the break. Abby, you'll have

2080
01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:35,920
Speaker 3: your news at the top of the hour.

2081
01:42:36,040 --> 01:42:38,559
Speaker 6: The hoisting of the cone phenomenon has reached its next

2082
01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:41,160
Speaker 6: logical step, and now people are stealing traffic.

2083
01:42:40,920 --> 01:42:44,400
Speaker 3: Codes PFD commenter in the nine o'clock hour, we'll ask

2084
01:42:44,479 --> 01:42:47,439
Speaker 3: him about his friend Diana Rossini and the big scandal

2085
01:42:47,520 --> 01:42:50,920
Speaker 3: that's brewing between her and Patriots head coach Mike Rabol

2086
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:54,519
Speaker 3: and what kind of standards of journalistic integrity does this breach?

2087
01:42:55,200 --> 01:42:57,640
Speaker 2: Ready, Willing and Rabel, we get it.

2088
01:42:58,600 --> 01:43:01,120
Speaker 5: Some of you tune in and two point five and

2089
01:43:01,240 --> 01:43:05,439
Speaker 5: others listen through their smart device. No matter how you listen,

2090
01:43:05,600 --> 01:43:07,160
Speaker 5: Pittsburgh's rocker is.

2091
01:43:07,479 --> 01:43:10,120
Speaker 4: W DV is always rocked and always well rocked.

2092
01:43:10,320 --> 01:43:14,839
Speaker 6: DV bring savings are here at Kenny Rossford Lisa Mustang

2093
01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:17,599
Speaker 6: Machi Premium for just five fifty month for thirty nine

2094
01:43:17,600 --> 01:43:18,360
Speaker 6: month with twenty.

2095
01:43:18,200 --> 01:43:18,880
Speaker 5: Five hundred do it?

2096
01:43:18,920 --> 01:43:19,200
Speaker 2: Sign it?

2097
01:43:19,320 --> 01:43:24,280
Speaker 5: Or do I have a Broncos.

2098
01:43:27,200 --> 01:43:30,280
Speaker 2: Pastor listen up.

2099
01:43:31,800 --> 01:43:41,919
Speaker 7: The zero.

2100
01:43:43,800 --> 01:43:47,400
Speaker 2: Two niner ladies and gentlemen, Phil Board joining.

2101
01:43:47,160 --> 01:43:50,479
Speaker 8: Us, Porky Top of the morning.

2102
01:43:51,240 --> 01:43:52,720
Speaker 2: You know we don't have a game for coming, so

2103
01:43:52,800 --> 01:43:53,960
Speaker 2: we wanted to save a little energy.

2104
01:43:55,240 --> 01:43:58,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, well done, No, that's okay, save it, save it

2105
01:43:58,760 --> 01:44:01,920
Speaker 8: because uh, the good stuff around the corner knock, knock, knock.

2106
01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:04,360
Speaker 8: It's that time of year, Randy, you know with the

2107
01:44:04,439 --> 01:44:07,639
Speaker 8: dogwood flowers of blooming. You know, we have a little

2108
01:44:07,640 --> 01:44:09,360
Speaker 8: bit of bite in the air in the morning, but

2109
01:44:09,439 --> 01:44:11,519
Speaker 8: then it gets warm and fuzzy in the afternoon. And

2110
01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:14,360
Speaker 8: you know what that means. Playoffs.

2111
01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:16,280
Speaker 2: Playoffs are around the corner.

2112
01:44:16,400 --> 01:44:19,040
Speaker 8: It's okay, it's okay now to talk about it. Okay,

2113
01:44:19,680 --> 01:44:22,519
Speaker 8: it's okay to talk about it all. A week, ten

2114
01:44:22,600 --> 01:44:25,360
Speaker 8: days ago, two weeks ago, I was saying, hold on,

2115
01:44:26,280 --> 01:44:29,759
Speaker 8: you know, no premature celebration if you know what I mean, Randy, Okay,

2116
01:44:29,840 --> 01:44:34,360
Speaker 8: I'm talking about you. Yeah, right, keep it where it belongs. Now,

2117
01:44:35,320 --> 01:44:37,439
Speaker 8: you should feel good about this team. It's okay to

2118
01:44:37,560 --> 01:44:41,440
Speaker 8: jump on the bandwagon. It's okay to yell from the rooftops.

2119
01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:42,920
Speaker 2: Let f and go.

2120
01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:47,240
Speaker 4: So it has been a surprising couple of weeks here.

2121
01:44:47,439 --> 01:44:49,280
Speaker 3: I thought that they were going to have a tougher

2122
01:44:49,360 --> 01:44:52,800
Speaker 3: time starting that road trip without Sidney Crosby, without of

2123
01:44:52,880 --> 01:44:53,519
Speaker 3: Guinny Malkin.

2124
01:44:53,680 --> 01:44:56,719
Speaker 2: I thought, boy, this is this is some tough sledding.

2125
01:44:56,760 --> 01:44:59,720
Speaker 3: Hear the fact that they got through that, you know,

2126
01:45:00,720 --> 01:45:04,120
Speaker 3: fairly unscathed, and then it seemingly only got better. They

2127
01:45:04,160 --> 01:45:07,360
Speaker 3: got said back who seems to slowly be getting back

2128
01:45:07,400 --> 01:45:10,479
Speaker 3: to for him, Gino having a monster day last Saturday,

2129
01:45:10,560 --> 01:45:13,200
Speaker 3: which part of this team right now?

2130
01:45:13,840 --> 01:45:16,200
Speaker 2: Are you most surprised by.

2131
01:45:16,160 --> 01:45:20,200
Speaker 5: Borky surprised by.

2132
01:45:22,920 --> 01:45:27,120
Speaker 3: I would just go with depth because the yeah, the

2133
01:45:27,200 --> 01:45:30,400
Speaker 3: people they are getting scoring from, I didn't anticipate, you know,

2134
01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:32,400
Speaker 3: the Anthony Mantha thirty goal season.

2135
01:45:33,720 --> 01:45:36,800
Speaker 8: Yeah, and the consistency of it. That was my knee

2136
01:45:36,840 --> 01:45:39,120
Speaker 8: jerk reaction. I was gonna say that before you jumped

2137
01:45:39,120 --> 01:45:44,840
Speaker 8: in and take your answer away from me. I'm kidding, okay,

2138
01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:47,400
Speaker 8: but what you know what, because I did, I hesitated

2139
01:45:47,640 --> 01:45:52,720
Speaker 8: because I was leaning more towards what the thirty eight,

2140
01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:56,880
Speaker 8: thirty nine, thirty five year old players have done on

2141
01:45:57,000 --> 01:46:00,120
Speaker 8: a consistent basis. Yeah, you need that part. I mean,

2142
01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:01,800
Speaker 8: that is the important part. And I talked about this

2143
01:46:01,960 --> 01:46:04,760
Speaker 8: before on this great show. That doesn't matter if we're

2144
01:46:04,760 --> 01:46:07,000
Speaker 8: talking about twenty twenty six, that we're talking about nineteen

2145
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:11,639
Speaker 8: ninety one. The equation is the same star players playing

2146
01:46:11,680 --> 01:46:15,840
Speaker 8: at their best, goalpenders that are just rock solid, and

2147
01:46:15,960 --> 01:46:19,160
Speaker 8: a bunch of third and fourth line Jabroni's that having

2148
01:46:19,360 --> 01:46:22,880
Speaker 8: career years. And so the third part is the hardest part.

2149
01:46:22,920 --> 01:46:25,479
Speaker 8: It's why a lot of teams can't get over the hump,

2150
01:46:25,880 --> 01:46:28,960
Speaker 8: is they can't get that consistent scoring from guys like

2151
01:46:29,080 --> 01:46:33,120
Speaker 8: Manta and Brazo and Kindle and Doer and Lozotte when

2152
01:46:33,120 --> 01:46:35,679
Speaker 8: he was in the lineup, but now al Marsola Bloom

2153
01:46:35,760 --> 01:46:39,160
Speaker 8: bumping pucks into the net. I mean, that's the recipe

2154
01:46:39,200 --> 01:46:41,880
Speaker 8: for success. That's what gets you over the top. And

2155
01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:44,519
Speaker 8: you're right, it is the hardest part. And so yeah,

2156
01:46:44,600 --> 01:46:46,519
Speaker 8: they have a bunch of guys that were kind of

2157
01:46:46,640 --> 01:46:49,439
Speaker 8: cast offs. Throw tinakoff in there too, if you're gonna

2158
01:46:49,600 --> 01:46:53,160
Speaker 8: talk about that, right, cast offs from other organizations, whether

2159
01:46:53,240 --> 01:46:56,920
Speaker 8: it's Boston or Dallas or Columbus or wherever, Detroit, wherever

2160
01:46:57,000 --> 01:46:59,880
Speaker 8: they came from. They weren't plug and play players for

2161
01:47:00,080 --> 01:47:02,400
Speaker 8: those teams, but they come here and they're like, well,

2162
01:47:02,840 --> 01:47:06,080
Speaker 8: this is fun. I like this group, I like this coach,

2163
01:47:06,320 --> 01:47:08,720
Speaker 8: I like this city. I want to really play and

2164
01:47:08,760 --> 01:47:09,880
Speaker 8: be part of something special.

2165
01:47:10,960 --> 01:47:14,160
Speaker 12: Porky, speaking of plug and play, not too many guys

2166
01:47:14,240 --> 01:47:18,599
Speaker 12: that are first round picks become that immediately anymore. Kendall has.

2167
01:47:21,120 --> 01:47:24,600
Speaker 12: How do you account for that? I mean just the

2168
01:47:24,720 --> 01:47:28,680
Speaker 12: numbers aside. I watched the way he plays, and I think, oh,

2169
01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:30,479
Speaker 12: this guy's been doing this at a high level for

2170
01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:31,120
Speaker 12: ten years.

2171
01:47:32,160 --> 01:47:34,320
Speaker 2: He just I think he knows what to do.

2172
01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:38,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think of so many times over the years

2173
01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:44,800
Speaker 8: where we've seen players like Ben and other organizations.

2174
01:47:44,160 --> 01:47:46,320
Speaker 2: And we're like, why didn't we get that guy?

2175
01:47:46,600 --> 01:47:49,600
Speaker 8: You know, right, why do they have that guy? And

2176
01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:53,600
Speaker 8: we didn't get that guy because because we have a

2177
01:47:53,680 --> 01:47:56,800
Speaker 8: general manager and a general manager that has built out

2178
01:47:56,840 --> 01:47:59,840
Speaker 8: his staff that have done their homework. That's that's the

2179
01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:03,120
Speaker 8: answer I have for you is we did our homework

2180
01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:05,519
Speaker 8: on him. Where a lot of people were saying, you know,

2181
01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:09,280
Speaker 8: either he's a late first rounder or an early second rounder,

2182
01:48:09,600 --> 01:48:11,759
Speaker 8: and you know what, we got him in the draft.

2183
01:48:12,600 --> 01:48:14,400
Speaker 8: Everybody was throwing their arms up in there and go,

2184
01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:18,120
Speaker 8: what the heck, and dude, what's doing? And that's fine,

2185
01:48:18,760 --> 01:48:20,920
Speaker 8: But now he's saying, this is what I was doing.

2186
01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:23,280
Speaker 8: I did my homework on this guy, and I knew

2187
01:48:23,439 --> 01:48:27,000
Speaker 8: just because he wasn't six four two twenty. There's a

2188
01:48:27,080 --> 01:48:30,320
Speaker 8: lot of other intangibles in this game. The two things

2189
01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:33,280
Speaker 8: that jump out to me, mikey are I mean, it's easy.

2190
01:48:33,400 --> 01:48:36,479
Speaker 8: I mean, you know Joe Blow eating scrambled eggs right now,

2191
01:48:36,560 --> 01:48:38,479
Speaker 8: can tell you this that you know his hockey IQ

2192
01:48:38,720 --> 01:48:43,120
Speaker 8: is hockey Smart's off the charts right, number one, number

2193
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:46,640
Speaker 8: two he's a tough soun son of a gun like

2194
01:48:46,760 --> 01:48:49,800
Speaker 8: he's taken some licks and he bounces up and not

2195
01:48:49,920 --> 01:48:53,600
Speaker 8: only gets right back in the fight, he's undeterred. It

2196
01:48:53,720 --> 01:48:56,240
Speaker 8: doesn't save him. And that's the part that's got me

2197
01:48:56,439 --> 01:48:58,439
Speaker 8: right from day one and Madison Square Garden where he

2198
01:48:58,439 --> 01:49:01,200
Speaker 8: plays the first National Hockey of a game. He's not

2199
01:49:01,400 --> 01:49:05,920
Speaker 8: overwhelmed by the venue, by the opponent, by the you know,

2200
01:49:06,040 --> 01:49:09,960
Speaker 8: the circumstance. He's not overwhelmed what just happened to him.

2201
01:49:10,200 --> 01:49:12,360
Speaker 8: The next shift, he goes, rolls the sleeves up and

2202
01:49:12,439 --> 01:49:15,200
Speaker 8: goes right back to work. He's Pittsburgh, right. And that's

2203
01:49:15,240 --> 01:49:18,120
Speaker 8: what's so cool about this kid, you know from Western Canada.

2204
01:49:18,960 --> 01:49:21,120
Speaker 8: He's come to the full one two seven, two four

2205
01:49:21,560 --> 01:49:24,479
Speaker 8: and he's kind of us right. He's not pretty right,

2206
01:49:24,600 --> 01:49:27,400
Speaker 8: he's not perfect, but he's but he's at one hell

2207
01:49:27,479 --> 01:49:30,240
Speaker 8: of a worker. That's got to set a kahuns on him.

2208
01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:35,360
Speaker 8: That he's not afraid at all of all the fire

2209
01:49:35,600 --> 01:49:38,439
Speaker 8: fireballs that the NHL can throw at you. He just

2210
01:49:38,600 --> 01:49:40,439
Speaker 8: beeps and dives and just keeps on keeping on.

2211
01:49:40,640 --> 01:49:42,240
Speaker 12: You know what I love about that answer is you

2212
01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:45,280
Speaker 12: just spent a lot of time talking about him. And

2213
01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:49,400
Speaker 12: you didn't mention seventeen goals, No, like I didn't.

2214
01:49:49,439 --> 01:49:52,080
Speaker 8: Because that comes that's the biprop Yeah.

2215
01:49:52,040 --> 01:49:54,280
Speaker 12: But it's just the way he does it which leads

2216
01:49:54,320 --> 01:49:56,600
Speaker 12: you to believe it's not only sustainable, it's going to

2217
01:49:56,680 --> 01:49:57,320
Speaker 12: keep getting better.

2218
01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:01,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, And and I don't The biggest goal that he

2219
01:50:02,040 --> 01:50:06,040
Speaker 8: has scored this year wasn't even in regulation or overtime, right,

2220
01:50:06,240 --> 01:50:09,680
Speaker 8: It was that shootout goal in Ottawa, a place that

2221
01:50:09,800 --> 01:50:13,080
Speaker 8: is just given the Penguins fits. But I think that goal,

2222
01:50:13,439 --> 01:50:17,160
Speaker 8: by him scoring it in that building against that opponent,

2223
01:50:18,240 --> 01:50:20,320
Speaker 8: those things and unless you've been there before. I'm not

2224
01:50:20,400 --> 01:50:23,639
Speaker 8: trying to big league anybody, Mikey, including you, unless you've

2225
01:50:23,680 --> 01:50:26,880
Speaker 8: been there before, It's unbelievable how things like that from

2226
01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:30,120
Speaker 8: guys like that can galvanize a team. It really brings

2227
01:50:30,160 --> 01:50:30,800
Speaker 8: a team together.

2228
01:50:30,880 --> 01:50:33,680
Speaker 3: And I think it has Borky walk us through the

2229
01:50:33,840 --> 01:50:38,160
Speaker 3: resurrection of Eric Carlson. He was about to be probably

2230
01:50:38,240 --> 01:50:41,960
Speaker 3: considered one of the worst signings in Penguin's history outside

2231
01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:43,840
Speaker 3: of a Jerome A Ginlaw or something like that. And

2232
01:50:43,960 --> 01:50:47,760
Speaker 3: now he's team MVP. What has happened with him? Why

2233
01:50:47,800 --> 01:50:48,679
Speaker 3: has he turned the corner?

2234
01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:50,720
Speaker 9: Wow?

2235
01:50:51,080 --> 01:50:56,559
Speaker 8: I mean the easy answer again would be Mike Sullivan's

2236
01:50:56,600 --> 01:50:59,920
Speaker 8: not here. Damn music is here. Yeah, right, and I'll

2237
01:51:00,040 --> 01:51:01,880
Speaker 8: I'll be honest with you here we are in April.

2238
01:51:01,960 --> 01:51:04,080
Speaker 8: I stopped doing the double shoulder check when I talk

2239
01:51:04,160 --> 01:51:07,479
Speaker 8: about Mike Sullivan. Okay, I'm not going to do that anymore. Okay,

2240
01:51:07,520 --> 01:51:09,840
Speaker 8: it didn't work out for Sally. We love Sully. He

2241
01:51:09,920 --> 01:51:12,479
Speaker 8: brought us two cups here, right, But with that being said,

2242
01:51:12,840 --> 01:51:15,960
Speaker 8: it wasn't working. Okay, that's okay to say that, right.

2243
01:51:16,200 --> 01:51:18,960
Speaker 8: It was just time to move on, and thank god

2244
01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:23,360
Speaker 8: we did, because not only has Dan Mues been the

2245
01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:26,000
Speaker 8: right guy for this team and for the city, he

2246
01:51:26,080 --> 01:51:28,920
Speaker 8: seems to be the right guy for Eric Carlton. And

2247
01:51:29,040 --> 01:51:31,280
Speaker 8: I'll throw Mike Stuthers in there too, because Mike Stuthers

2248
01:51:31,360 --> 01:51:34,400
Speaker 8: runs of the defense right, and really the whole coaching

2249
01:51:34,479 --> 01:51:37,560
Speaker 8: staff have just I think struck a chord with this

2250
01:51:37,720 --> 01:51:40,559
Speaker 8: guy and allowed him to just play free number one

2251
01:51:41,280 --> 01:51:45,679
Speaker 8: and number two. I think, okay, listen, I'm just gonna

2252
01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:47,280
Speaker 8: kind of rip the band aid off here. I think

2253
01:51:47,360 --> 01:51:49,559
Speaker 8: he got tired of sucking, right, I think he got

2254
01:51:49,640 --> 01:51:53,760
Speaker 8: tired of sucking and realized realize, I'm way better than

2255
01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:56,679
Speaker 8: this I'm tired of this. I'm tired of bad pinches,

2256
01:51:56,720 --> 01:51:59,360
Speaker 8: I'm tired of turnovers. I'm tired of people, you know,

2257
01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:02,120
Speaker 8: you know, saying this, that and the other thing about me.

2258
01:52:02,560 --> 01:52:04,639
Speaker 8: I'm just gonna play. And now I've got a fresheet

2259
01:52:04,680 --> 01:52:06,840
Speaker 8: of ice. I got a new coach that I like.

2260
01:52:07,320 --> 01:52:09,080
Speaker 8: And but we're not in the good the guy business.

2261
01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:11,320
Speaker 8: We're in the win hockey games business. And so this

2262
01:52:11,439 --> 01:52:14,320
Speaker 8: guy has struck that core, that fine line you have

2263
01:52:14,439 --> 01:52:17,800
Speaker 8: to walk, right, Randy, to be not their buddy, but

2264
01:52:17,920 --> 01:52:20,240
Speaker 8: they have to like you, but also to be their

2265
01:52:20,280 --> 01:52:23,160
Speaker 8: hockey coach to get them to play up to their potential.

2266
01:52:23,240 --> 01:52:26,000
Speaker 8: I think Dan Muse has walked that tight rope.

2267
01:52:27,360 --> 01:52:30,400
Speaker 2: In his first year. That is an amazing in the

2268
01:52:30,479 --> 01:52:34,639
Speaker 2: first year. Yeah, it is an amazing as a real head.

2269
01:52:34,479 --> 01:52:38,840
Speaker 12: Coach dealing with the player who is clearly had an

2270
01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:39,920
Speaker 12: elite reputation.

2271
01:52:40,160 --> 01:52:43,200
Speaker 2: It's not elite results, you know what I mean, Like it.

2272
01:52:43,280 --> 01:52:45,559
Speaker 8: Never it never played the game. That's the other part too,

2273
01:52:45,760 --> 01:52:48,080
Speaker 8: It's not like he, you know, played the game for

2274
01:52:48,240 --> 01:52:50,639
Speaker 8: eighteen years and played twelve hundred games in the league.

2275
01:52:50,920 --> 01:52:52,040
Speaker 8: You know, this is a guy and this is not

2276
01:52:52,280 --> 01:52:55,000
Speaker 8: this is not my words either his words, Mikey and Randy,

2277
01:52:55,320 --> 01:52:57,519
Speaker 8: you know this is I was a borderline Division III

2278
01:52:57,600 --> 01:53:00,360
Speaker 8: hockey player, you know. And to walk into that room

2279
01:53:00,400 --> 01:53:04,040
Speaker 8: with future Hall of Famers and Stanley Cups galore. To

2280
01:53:04,200 --> 01:53:06,479
Speaker 8: walk in that room and to number one get their attention,

2281
01:53:06,600 --> 01:53:09,400
Speaker 8: Number two get their respect and in such a short

2282
01:53:09,439 --> 01:53:12,240
Speaker 8: time pretty incredible when you really talk about it.

2283
01:53:12,640 --> 01:53:16,479
Speaker 3: It's one of the most undersold stories of the season

2284
01:53:16,680 --> 01:53:19,320
Speaker 3: in the NHL, as far as I'm concerned, I would

2285
01:53:19,320 --> 01:53:22,800
Speaker 3: agree nobody talks about dann Use outside of Pittsburgh. Well,

2286
01:53:22,880 --> 01:53:24,920
Speaker 3: it doesn't seem like it, I should say, other than

2287
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:27,400
Speaker 3: you know, the casual reference when they're playing. But yeah,

2288
01:53:27,400 --> 01:53:30,560
Speaker 3: they have to start to Now do you do the

2289
01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:32,360
Speaker 3: flyers on the come up? Scary at all?

2290
01:53:34,479 --> 01:53:39,000
Speaker 8: Oh? Please please, Randy, what do you say scare me?

2291
01:53:39,240 --> 01:53:40,640
Speaker 3: Well, that was the wrong word to do, is I

2292
01:53:40,720 --> 01:53:42,920
Speaker 3: realize in retrospect, I immediately regret it.

2293
01:53:43,080 --> 01:53:45,760
Speaker 2: This is not this is not nineteen eighty six.

2294
01:53:45,920 --> 01:53:49,000
Speaker 8: Okay, this is not the Broad Street Bullies anymore. And

2295
01:53:49,120 --> 01:53:52,160
Speaker 8: I like that Rick Hacketts the head coach, and I listen,

2296
01:53:52,520 --> 01:53:54,720
Speaker 8: I'm not being arrogant, I'm not being cocky, but I

2297
01:53:54,760 --> 01:53:58,360
Speaker 8: think it would be a fantastic first round matchup. That's

2298
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:00,479
Speaker 8: the way it's going to go. Let's bring them on,

2299
01:54:00,840 --> 01:54:04,880
Speaker 8: Let's bring them on. Number one eighty seven would be

2300
01:54:05,040 --> 01:54:07,040
Speaker 8: like a bulldog on a pork chop, all right, he'd

2301
01:54:07,080 --> 01:54:09,920
Speaker 8: be salivating to play that hockey team. You know what,

2302
01:54:10,120 --> 01:54:12,240
Speaker 8: you know when he sees that color orange, you know

2303
01:54:12,280 --> 01:54:15,080
Speaker 8: what happens like, yeah, fireworks go off?

2304
01:54:15,160 --> 01:54:15,280
Speaker 7: Right.

2305
01:54:15,760 --> 01:54:19,120
Speaker 8: So I just think, listen, they're hot, they're playing well.

2306
01:54:19,600 --> 01:54:21,519
Speaker 8: Any team he gets into the playoffs is going to

2307
01:54:21,600 --> 01:54:24,240
Speaker 8: have assets. But you look at any team, and I

2308
01:54:24,360 --> 01:54:26,479
Speaker 8: mean any team East or West, They've got warps, they

2309
01:54:26,560 --> 01:54:28,639
Speaker 8: got cracks, they got problems. Their fan base is going,

2310
01:54:28,680 --> 01:54:30,400
Speaker 8: oh boy, what about this? And what about that? And

2311
01:54:30,479 --> 01:54:33,560
Speaker 8: what about this? I'm worried about this, So everybody has that.

2312
01:54:34,560 --> 01:54:36,920
Speaker 8: I just like the way the Penguins have kind of

2313
01:54:36,960 --> 01:54:39,520
Speaker 8: buttoned things up. Do they need to be better defensively? Hell,

2314
01:54:39,640 --> 01:54:41,800
Speaker 8: yeah they do. They got to really tighten up and

2315
01:54:41,840 --> 01:54:43,840
Speaker 8: start winning games one nothing, two to one, to three

2316
01:54:43,840 --> 01:54:45,840
Speaker 8: to two, which they haven't done much of all year

2317
01:54:45,920 --> 01:54:48,400
Speaker 8: because those are playoff type of wins. But with the

2318
01:54:48,440 --> 01:54:52,160
Speaker 8: Philadelphia Flyers, it's a young, fast, hungry team, a lot

2319
01:54:52,200 --> 01:54:54,000
Speaker 8: of inexperienced I don't even know if they have a

2320
01:54:54,040 --> 01:54:56,040
Speaker 8: player on their team that's won the Stanley Cup before

2321
01:54:56,480 --> 01:54:59,320
Speaker 8: besides their head coach. But that's neither here nor there.

2322
01:54:59,360 --> 01:55:01,240
Speaker 8: I just think it would be a great matchup. They're

2323
01:55:01,280 --> 01:55:03,640
Speaker 8: playing some of their best hockey. The Penguins are back

2324
01:55:03,680 --> 01:55:05,840
Speaker 8: playing some of their best hockey. We'll see which way

2325
01:55:05,880 --> 01:55:07,600
Speaker 8: it goes, but that's the way it's looking right now.

2326
01:55:07,760 --> 01:55:09,320
Speaker 2: Who's some playoff goalie game one.

2327
01:55:10,880 --> 01:55:15,920
Speaker 8: To a skinner? All right? Answer, he's been too, He's

2328
01:55:15,920 --> 01:55:18,560
Speaker 8: been two Stanley Cup finals before. He's got the experience.

2329
01:55:18,640 --> 01:55:21,959
Speaker 8: That's nothing against she lost, that's nothing against Sergei Marishoff.

2330
01:55:22,000 --> 01:55:23,720
Speaker 8: If that's the trailer you're.

2331
01:55:23,520 --> 01:55:28,360
Speaker 2: Trying to take me down, No, no with you, And

2332
01:55:28,400 --> 01:55:29,840
Speaker 2: I appreciate you answered it quickly.

2333
01:55:29,960 --> 01:55:33,560
Speaker 12: I get the mirrorshof is you know the long term

2334
01:55:34,040 --> 01:55:36,560
Speaker 12: perceived answer, But it doesn't have to be that now.

2335
01:55:37,880 --> 01:55:39,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, and you don't know. And that's and that's the

2336
01:55:39,880 --> 01:55:42,480
Speaker 8: thing I caution people like I get it. If you're

2337
01:55:42,520 --> 01:55:44,360
Speaker 8: sitting around eating your cereal and each to say, let's

2338
01:55:44,360 --> 01:55:46,600
Speaker 8: get that Russian kid in here. He's been unbelievable in America.

2339
01:55:46,720 --> 01:55:48,800
Speaker 8: I get I get all that, you know, I mean,

2340
01:55:48,840 --> 01:55:50,520
Speaker 8: it's a part of me that would love to see

2341
01:55:50,600 --> 01:55:52,560
Speaker 8: him play another game down the stretch here if I'm

2342
01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:55,040
Speaker 8: being real honest with you guys. But with that being said,

2343
01:55:55,480 --> 01:55:58,400
Speaker 8: be careful because these two other guys she lost the

2344
01:55:58,480 --> 01:56:01,360
Speaker 8: Skinner had played their ass off all year. Okay, And

2345
01:56:01,440 --> 01:56:03,920
Speaker 8: I know the numbers aren't getting you jumping up and down,

2346
01:56:04,320 --> 01:56:07,280
Speaker 8: but these are competitors. These guys have track records of

2347
01:56:07,360 --> 01:56:10,360
Speaker 8: winning before okay, and when they have the ability to

2348
01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:12,680
Speaker 8: elevate their game at the most important time of the year,

2349
01:56:12,680 --> 01:56:15,720
Speaker 8: whether it's in season, I think more importantly in the postseason,

2350
01:56:15,800 --> 01:56:18,640
Speaker 8: they both have proven they can do that. She lost.

2351
01:56:18,680 --> 01:56:20,160
Speaker 8: I know it's in the American League, but it was

2352
01:56:20,240 --> 01:56:22,560
Speaker 8: just last year, and Skinner in the last two years

2353
01:56:22,920 --> 01:56:25,800
Speaker 8: took a team that was leaky defensively, great offensively, and

2354
01:56:25,840 --> 01:56:28,200
Speaker 8: the Edmonton Oils took them to the Stanley Cup Final twice.

2355
01:56:28,440 --> 01:56:31,640
Speaker 8: So I think you've got two guys that are chopping

2356
01:56:31,680 --> 01:56:34,240
Speaker 8: at the bid to do it in the postseason. I

2357
01:56:34,400 --> 01:56:36,480
Speaker 8: just think it's great to have that safety net of

2358
01:56:36,960 --> 01:56:39,720
Speaker 8: the Russian kid Ameraschoff down in the American Hockey League.

2359
01:56:39,800 --> 01:56:41,760
Speaker 8: That's knock knock knocking on the door. I think those

2360
01:56:41,800 --> 01:56:42,960
Speaker 8: are just all good things.

2361
01:56:43,200 --> 01:56:45,760

2378
01:57:32,840 --> 01:57:35,840
Speaker 14: mom to another. Winter in this city wrecks your house.

2379
01:57:35,960 --> 01:57:38,520
Speaker 14: I'm talking wet boots by the door, road salt everywhere.

2380
01:57:38,600 --> 01:57:47,480
Speaker 14: Keep w DV E Pittsburgh and iHeartRadio station Guaranteed Human.

2381
01:57:50,920 --> 01:57:53,480
Speaker 8: I think if we had just had if if Sienna

2382
01:57:53,560 --> 01:57:56,440
Speaker 8: had had one bench player that could have played longer

2383
01:57:56,480 --> 01:58:00,240
Speaker 8: than ten seconds at Yeah, I think Duke, and then

2384
01:58:00,280 --> 01:58:02,680
Speaker 8: then everybody would be talking about what a great tournament

2385
01:58:02,760 --> 01:58:05,320
Speaker 8: this is. I think we definitely don't need to expand

2386
01:58:05,400 --> 01:58:08,560
Speaker 8: the tournament. I think sixty eight teams is plenty. I

2387
01:58:08,680 --> 01:58:11,800
Speaker 8: don't want expansion. I don't think anybody involved in the

2388
01:58:11,840 --> 01:58:15,200
Speaker 8: sport once expansion, except for the powers to see this

2389
01:58:15,320 --> 01:58:17,800
Speaker 8: that are gonna be cashing checks about it. But I

2390
01:58:18,120 --> 01:58:20,200
Speaker 8: think if anything, we can say we've found the perfect

2391
01:58:20,240 --> 01:58:22,440
Speaker 8: amount of seas. Let's not go any further and just

2392
01:58:22,520 --> 01:58:24,520
Speaker 8: give it a couple of years, because I'm sure next

2393
01:58:24,640 --> 01:58:26,960
Speaker 8: year there will be some upsets, there'll be some Cinderella's.

2394
01:58:27,040 --> 01:58:28,800
Speaker 8: But the bottom line is, if you look at the

2395
01:58:28,840 --> 01:58:30,800
Speaker 8: sixteen teams that are playing right now like we have,

2396
01:58:31,600 --> 01:58:34,240
Speaker 8: we've got some great basketball come up this weekend. So

2397
01:58:34,320 --> 01:58:35,320

01:58:35,840 --> 01:58:38,080
Speaker 3: Is there a coaching matchup that's coming up this weekend?

2401
01:58:44,040 --> 01:58:45,640

Speaker 6: it's insane.

2444
02:00:30,280 --> 02:00:33,520

2445
02:00:33,600 --> 02:00:37,520
Speaker 3: running and marathons have become like big deals across the

2446
02:00:37,560 --> 02:00:40,440
Speaker 3: country and more people take up running.

2447
02:00:40,840 --> 02:00:42,520
Speaker 2: I will never run a marathon.

2448
02:00:45,280 --> 02:00:47,400
Speaker 3: As soon as they're like, you have to grease your

2449
02:00:47,480 --> 02:00:49,880
Speaker 3: nipples pretty much any activities out, I don't know what

2450

Speaker 3: I have to do that part. But so that that

2451
02:00:55,000 --> 02:00:58,080
Speaker 3: isn't the weird part to me, uh, just the sheer

2452
02:00:58,120 --> 02:01:00,440
Speaker 3: grind to that. Man, I have great respect for people

2455
02:01:07,000 --> 02:01:09,520
Speaker 3: a neighbor of mine ran. He trained all year for

2456
02:01:09,600 --> 02:01:12,600
Speaker 3: a marathon, and he had like a playlist, and he

2457

Speaker 3: trained on a treadmill and did some outside stuff and

Speaker 3: he went to go run a marathon. It was fifty

2459
02:01:17,920 --> 02:01:22,680
Speaker 3: one degrees pouring down rain and his bluetooth wouldn't pair

2460
02:01:23,000 --> 02:01:26,040
Speaker 3: at the start line, so he had to look down

2461
02:01:26,080 --> 02:01:28,160
Speaker 3: the barrel of you know whatever. That is like a

2462
02:01:28,680 --> 02:01:32,760
Speaker 3: four hour run with no ra raw dog in it

2463
02:01:32,920 --> 02:01:34,000
Speaker 3: and just having to deal with it.

2464
02:01:34,040 --> 02:01:36,520
Speaker 2: And he made it through. But he's like, that was atrocious.

2465
02:01:36,640 --> 02:01:37,320
Speaker 2: That was not fun.

2466
02:01:37,640 --> 02:01:40,640
Speaker 3: The ultimate raw dog, as far as I'm concerned, is

2467
02:01:40,760 --> 02:01:44,280
Speaker 3: Joe Strummer from The Clash deciding I'm going to run

2468
02:01:44,320 --> 02:01:45,200
Speaker 3: the London Marathon.

2469
02:01:45,800 --> 02:01:49,360
Speaker 2: No training at all shows up.

2470
02:01:49,560 --> 02:01:52,520
Speaker 3: I think he had cut off Jeene shorts and wore

2471
02:01:52,880 --> 02:01:57,960
Speaker 3: Converse flat, no cushion and ran it in a not

2472
02:01:58,720 --> 02:02:01,600
Speaker 3: unrespectable time asking for shin splints strip.

2473
02:02:01,760 --> 02:02:02,800
Speaker 2: That is painful.

2474
02:02:03,640 --> 02:02:04,760
Speaker 5: I just can't.

2475
02:02:04,800 --> 02:02:06,480
Speaker 3: I know there are people who can do stuff like that.

2476
02:02:06,640 --> 02:02:12,120
Speaker 3: That is an athletic ability that is unfathomable to me. Anyways,

2477
02:02:12,160 --> 02:02:14,880
Speaker 3: great news for Pittsburgh. Yeah, really, the hits just keep

2478
02:02:14,960 --> 02:02:19,680
Speaker 3: on coming. Carter Griffin, the Draft, the Marathon, is all healthy?

2479
02:02:19,800 --> 02:02:21,080
Speaker 3: What a year for four to one two?

2480
02:02:21,560 --> 02:02:23,800
Speaker 6: There is a waitless available for anybody who still wants

2481
02:02:23,840 --> 02:02:26,760
Speaker 6: a chance to run the marathon, and if you relays

2482
02:02:27,960 --> 02:02:30,480
Speaker 6: and fitness challenge options that are still available, so you

2483
02:02:30,600 --> 02:02:32,600
Speaker 6: still go to the marathon website.

2484
02:02:32,480 --> 02:02:35,280
Speaker 3: Ask you probably a dumb question if I wanted to

2485
02:02:35,360 --> 02:02:38,360
Speaker 3: run the marathon but didn't pay, what's to stop me

2486
02:02:38,560 --> 02:02:40,879
Speaker 3: from just running out in the middle of the marathon

2487
02:02:40,960 --> 02:02:43,800
Speaker 3: at some point and doing twenty miles of it?

2488
02:02:46,360 --> 02:02:47,040
Speaker 2: I thought this one.

2489
02:02:47,320 --> 02:02:49,640
Speaker 3: The same scenario popped up when I was one time

2490
02:02:49,760 --> 02:02:51,480
Speaker 3: heading in for a kolonoscopy and they.

2491
02:02:51,400 --> 02:02:54,440
Speaker 2: Asked me for ID, and I was like, so are

2492
02:02:54,480 --> 02:02:56,720
Speaker 2: you just like who is this preventing?

2493
02:02:56,800 --> 02:02:56,840
Speaker 3: What?

2494
02:02:56,920 --> 02:03:00,360
Speaker 2: Are you someone gonna fake getting a kolonoscopy? Like so,

2495
02:03:00,520 --> 02:03:02,760
Speaker 2: I think it's the same thing, Like who's gonna do that?

2496
02:03:04,960 --> 02:03:07,240
Speaker 3: If you're that with it that you train for a marathon,

2497
02:03:07,400 --> 02:03:09,560
Speaker 3: I think you can fill out the form right beforehand.

2498
02:03:09,720 --> 02:03:12,560
Speaker 2: I'm here for a goal and osgabye you are? I sure, am?

2499
02:03:12,680 --> 02:03:14,440
Speaker 2: I don't born you, buddy, I mean I don't have

2500
02:03:14,600 --> 02:03:15,800
Speaker 2: you on the list, but come on.

2501
02:03:15,880 --> 02:03:19,080
Speaker 9: In, all right.

2502
02:03:19,160 --> 02:03:22,680
Speaker 6: The Pirates voist The cone phenomenon has its natural next

2503
02:03:22,720 --> 02:03:26,960
Speaker 6: step with people stealing traffic cones. The borough of Jeffferson

2504
02:03:27,080 --> 02:03:30,160
Speaker 6: Hills posted on social media acknowledging the pirates trend but

2505
02:03:30,360 --> 02:03:34,000
Speaker 6: telling people to please leave traffic cones where they are.

2506
02:03:34,560 --> 02:03:39,120
Speaker 6: ABM Parking Services mid Atlantic District manager told CBS that

2507
02:03:39,360 --> 02:03:42,600
Speaker 6: twenty five cones were stolen on pirates opening down.

2508
02:03:42,680 --> 02:03:43,440
Speaker 2: That is so funny.

2509
02:03:43,560 --> 02:03:46,960
Speaker 6: It is illegal to steal a traffic cone, with fines

2510
02:03:47,040 --> 02:03:51,120
Speaker 6: starting at fifty dollars plus the cost of replacing the cone.

2511
02:03:51,280 --> 02:03:54,160
Speaker 3: I don't want to scare anybody, but you know, in college,

2512
02:03:54,240 --> 02:03:56,800
Speaker 3: I'm sure, like most people, you get a little curious

2513
02:03:56,840 --> 02:03:59,920
Speaker 3: about stealing road signs. I'm pretty sure it's a fel

2514
02:04:00,440 --> 02:04:03,120
Speaker 3: And if somebody runs a stop sign that you've stolen,

2515
02:04:03,360 --> 02:04:05,800
Speaker 3: or goes through an area of a cone that was

2516
02:04:05,840 --> 02:04:08,320
Speaker 3: put out there officially that you've taken, you might be

2517
02:04:08,800 --> 02:04:11,000
Speaker 3: on the hook for some civil damage.

2518
02:04:11,040 --> 02:04:13,640
Speaker 2: And that's what I was wondering earlier, like what is

2519
02:04:13,680 --> 02:04:15,360
Speaker 2: your liability if you take.

2520
02:04:15,240 --> 02:04:17,440
Speaker 3: A stop sign in a four way intersection someone blows

2521
02:04:17,480 --> 02:04:19,800
Speaker 3: through that, you better believe if they find that stop sign,

2522
02:04:20,040 --> 02:04:22,200
Speaker 3: you're in big trouble. So bury them with the bucko

2523
02:04:22,280 --> 02:04:24,040
Speaker 3: bricks if you if you got them, but yeah, not

2524
02:04:24,120 --> 02:04:26,120
Speaker 3: a good idea. It is funny the tons of cones

2525
02:04:26,760 --> 02:04:29,240
Speaker 3: at the park. At the ballpark, people dressed up as

2526
02:04:29,360 --> 02:04:31,560
Speaker 3: the traffic cones also very funny.

2527
02:04:32,000 --> 02:04:32,640
Speaker 8: No, I like that.

2528
02:04:33,000 --> 02:04:33,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2529
02:04:33,720 --> 02:04:37,160
Speaker 3: But the guy that we talked about that used to

2530
02:04:37,200 --> 02:04:40,680
Speaker 3: be employed here. Yeah, he really missed his moment.

2531
02:04:40,920 --> 02:04:44,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, you can't take a well, you know, I think

2532
02:04:44,840 --> 02:04:47,800
Speaker 6: you you can take a traffic cone or anything else

2533
02:04:47,880 --> 02:04:49,680
Speaker 6: and put it at your crotch level.

2534
02:04:49,760 --> 02:04:52,120
Speaker 2: And that's what he did and he got fired for it.

2535
02:04:52,360 --> 02:04:55,520
Speaker 3: But what I'm saying is had he done that now,

2536
02:04:55,920 --> 02:04:58,040
Speaker 3: he would have had a plausible deniability.

2537
02:04:58,520 --> 02:05:01,160
Speaker 2: I'm just a big fan. Yeah, I love thee love

2538
02:05:01,240 --> 02:05:04,520
Speaker 2: the Pirates. This Connor Griffin deal has me really excited.

2539
02:05:05,920 --> 02:05:08,800
Speaker 6: There's i mean, traffic cones a plenty in Pittsburgh, but

2540
02:05:08,880 --> 02:05:10,720
Speaker 6: you can't buy a traffic cone.

2541
02:05:11,520 --> 02:05:14,080
Speaker 2: I mean you can go to home depot or lows well.

2542
02:05:14,120 --> 02:05:16,880
Speaker 3: I think even just like a regular pylon, you know,

2543
02:05:17,080 --> 02:05:20,640
Speaker 3: like a soccer field, football field, you know, like the

2544
02:05:20,760 --> 02:05:24,480
Speaker 3: stuff you'd put out on a practice field. But people

2545
02:05:24,560 --> 02:05:27,560
Speaker 3: have the hats they're wearing, the cone hats, they have

2546
02:05:27,720 --> 02:05:30,200
Speaker 3: the tiny ones they have on their fingers, They're all

2547
02:05:30,240 --> 02:05:30,760
Speaker 3: over the place.

2548
02:05:30,880 --> 02:05:32,920
Speaker 2: Have we been down to the Strip District recently to

2549
02:05:33,000 --> 02:05:34,440
Speaker 2: see what we've done with the T shirts?

2550
02:05:34,600 --> 02:05:37,120
Speaker 3: No, but I guarantee you there's plenty of hoist the

2551
02:05:37,200 --> 02:05:38,120
Speaker 3: cone shirts down there.

2552
02:05:38,280 --> 02:05:42,480
Speaker 2: Make a cone braw from myself. Let me tell you

2553
02:05:43,040 --> 02:05:44,400
Speaker 2: that cone cone.

2554
02:05:47,120 --> 02:05:49,440
Speaker 3: It would be like if you could wear the terrible

2555
02:05:49,520 --> 02:05:54,720
Speaker 3: towel dress and the cone brad Lady Pittsburgh across the streams,

2556
02:05:55,680 --> 02:06:04,040
Speaker 3: Lady Pittsburgh like Lady mar Yeah. Well, I never watched that.

2557
02:06:04,160 --> 02:06:06,680
Speaker 3: I never understood the phrase Lady Marmalade. What what was

2558
02:06:06,760 --> 02:06:07,440
Speaker 3: that all about?

2559
02:06:08,120 --> 02:06:11,200
Speaker 2: I believe a brothel? Oh okay, that's what it was. Yeah, okay.

2560
02:06:11,600 --> 02:06:14,320
Speaker 6: I was always under the impression that the lyrics of

2561
02:06:14,400 --> 02:06:18,520
Speaker 6: that song were very scantled, scant scandulous, scandalous for the

2562
02:06:18,640 --> 02:06:20,000
Speaker 6: scantily clad women.

2563
02:06:20,480 --> 02:06:23,720
Speaker 3: Yes, scandalous. Well, she wouldn't be Lady Marmalade, but she'd

2564
02:06:23,760 --> 02:06:26,560
Speaker 3: be Lady Marinera. The Rasini scandal is something that we'll

2565
02:06:26,600 --> 02:06:28,240
Speaker 3: be talking about here and joining us right now.

2566
02:06:28,720 --> 02:06:29,640
Speaker 2: Brought to you by Yingling.

2567
02:06:29,720 --> 02:06:31,920
Speaker 3: Make it a Yingling traditional logger from the oldest brewery

2568
02:06:32,000 --> 02:06:35,400
Speaker 3: in America from Pardon My Take, Barstool Sports, PFT comment

2569
02:06:35,440 --> 02:06:36,240
Speaker 3: or PFT good morning.

2570
02:06:36,320 --> 02:06:36,640
Speaker 2: How are you?

2571
02:06:37,680 --> 02:06:41,120
Speaker 8: Good morning, Lady Marinaia is crazy. That's a crazy na.

2572
02:06:41,880 --> 02:06:44,760
Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, what a what a weird day online? It

2573
02:06:44,880 --> 02:06:47,160
Speaker 8: was yesterday, but before we touched me that, I just

2574
02:06:47,240 --> 02:06:50,240
Speaker 8: want to say congratulations, Happy Nutting day to you guys.

2575
02:06:50,320 --> 02:06:54,440
Speaker 8: Bought Nutting, spent some money. Yeah, pretty impressive stuff. You

2576
02:06:54,520 --> 02:06:55,840
Speaker 8: guys have to be pretty happy about that.

2577
02:06:55,960 --> 02:06:59,400
Speaker 3: I mean ecstatic. But of course we immediately were skeptical.

2578
02:06:59,400 --> 02:07:01,680
Speaker 3: You know what I mean, It's like dad stopped yelling

2579
02:07:01,760 --> 02:07:05,000
Speaker 3: at us. What's you know, what's lurking around the corner.

2580
02:07:05,040 --> 02:07:07,320
Speaker 3: You don't know how to react. It's never happened to

2581
02:07:07,440 --> 02:07:07,920
Speaker 3: us before.

2582
02:07:08,320 --> 02:07:12,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I mean I guess your thoughts

2583
02:07:12,120 --> 02:07:14,240
Speaker 8: have to go to like the lockout potentially next year.

2584
02:07:14,280 --> 02:07:18,120
Speaker 8: But this is a it's a great move because signing

2585
02:07:18,160 --> 02:07:20,960
Speaker 8: players to contracts right now before the lockout is that's

2586
02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:23,640
Speaker 8: actually a very a very smart thing to do. From

2587
02:07:23,680 --> 02:07:26,080
Speaker 8: like a payroll perspective. You have to assume that once

2588
02:07:26,120 --> 02:07:29,440
Speaker 8: they get a new CBA in place, every contracts would

2589
02:07:29,480 --> 02:07:33,520
Speaker 8: be more expensive. Yeah, so now, great move, good job, pirate.

2590
02:07:33,640 --> 02:07:36,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, these get grandfathered in, so I mean I'm excited

2591
02:07:36,280 --> 02:07:39,120
Speaker 3: about it. Watching the buckos every night now and having

2592
02:07:39,240 --> 02:07:43,640
Speaker 3: some hope and feeling like there's actually, you know, something

2593
02:07:43,720 --> 02:07:46,000
Speaker 3: to root for is such a foreign feeling. And I

2594
02:07:46,120 --> 02:07:48,520
Speaker 3: know you dealt that with that with your football team

2595
02:07:48,560 --> 02:07:49,200
Speaker 3: for a long time.

2596
02:07:50,280 --> 02:07:53,200
Speaker 8: Yeah. Yeah, it's a strange place to be. You're gonna

2597
02:07:53,200 --> 02:07:54,480
Speaker 8: have a lot of people being like, act like you've

2598
02:07:54,480 --> 02:07:56,440
Speaker 8: been there before. You can't do that because you haven't.

2599
02:07:56,760 --> 02:08:00,240
Speaker 8: So congratulations. I hope that this is a star of

2600
02:08:00,640 --> 02:08:02,800
Speaker 8: a new era for you guys. Now, is there a reason?

2601
02:08:02,960 --> 02:08:06,240
Speaker 8: Like what change with Bob Bedding? Why? Why does he

2602
02:08:06,880 --> 02:08:07,600
Speaker 8: spend money? Now?

2603
02:08:07,920 --> 02:08:09,960
Speaker 4: I think you just answered your own. We're all trying

2604
02:08:09,960 --> 02:08:10,840
Speaker 4: to figure that part out.

2605
02:08:10,880 --> 02:08:13,400
Speaker 3: We're like, you know, is he going to sell the team?

2606
02:08:13,560 --> 02:08:15,760
Speaker 3: Did he just up the valuation to move the team

2607
02:08:15,840 --> 02:08:18,840
Speaker 3: somewhere else? What is the real motivation here? Because it

2608
02:08:18,920 --> 02:08:21,080
Speaker 3: can't just be good business sense. But Jeff, you had

2609
02:08:21,240 --> 02:08:25,440
Speaker 3: a PFD. You're let me take you through a hypothetical here.

2610
02:08:25,680 --> 02:08:29,120
Speaker 3: You're nineteen years old and you're now possess in theory

2611
02:08:29,400 --> 02:08:33,320
Speaker 3: one hundred million dollars. What happens next? What do you

2612
02:08:33,440 --> 02:08:36,160
Speaker 3: buy at nineteen now that money is not an issue?

2613
02:08:36,240 --> 02:08:37,760
Speaker 3: How do you keep it under? How do you keep

2614
02:08:37,800 --> 02:08:38,480
Speaker 3: it under control.

2615
02:08:39,400 --> 02:08:43,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, nothing constructive. I don't buy anything constructive. It has

2616
02:08:43,520 --> 02:08:45,440
Speaker 8: a recipe for disaster. If you were to give me

2617
02:08:45,520 --> 02:08:47,440
Speaker 8: that much money at such a young age. I think

2618
02:08:47,440 --> 02:08:49,400
Speaker 8: it's probably gonna a little bit different with Connor, but

2619
02:08:49,840 --> 02:08:52,360
Speaker 8: it's for me. If I was a part of Scent,

2620
02:08:52,400 --> 02:08:54,680
Speaker 8: I'd be like, it'd be like your your husband coming

2621
02:08:54,720 --> 02:08:57,520
Speaker 8: home and just bringing you flowers for absolutely no reasons,

2622
02:08:57,880 --> 02:08:59,800
Speaker 8: Like what what does this mean? What did you do?

2623
02:09:00,480 --> 02:09:00,680
Speaker 5: Yeah?

2624
02:09:02,440 --> 02:09:04,800
Speaker 8: So yeah, I mean it's it's exciting for you guys.

2625
02:09:04,880 --> 02:09:07,440
Speaker 8: I hope that this is the start of a new trend,

2626
02:09:07,800 --> 02:09:09,600
Speaker 8: that the pirates are now going to spend money and

2627
02:09:10,000 --> 02:09:13,440
Speaker 8: keep their own homegrown talent in house and build something

2628
02:09:13,480 --> 02:09:16,280
Speaker 8: for the future. But I do understand the apprehension from

2629
02:09:16,320 --> 02:09:19,360
Speaker 8: your perspective. It's like, this is it's such a such

2630
02:09:19,400 --> 02:09:21,320
Speaker 8: a break in what they normally do in the way

2631
02:09:21,360 --> 02:09:23,600
Speaker 8: they do business, that you you have to expect that

2632
02:09:23,680 --> 02:09:25,760
Speaker 8: something else is coming. But you know, I enjoy it

2633
02:09:25,840 --> 02:09:27,800
Speaker 8: for to that because we don't we don't have to

2634
02:09:27,840 --> 02:09:31,880
Speaker 8: be cynical just yet. I always like to see, you know,

2635
02:09:31,960 --> 02:09:35,200
Speaker 8: the teams that historically have had, you know, diehard fan

2636
02:09:35,320 --> 02:09:38,760
Speaker 8: bases that have been disrespected by their ownership. I like

2637
02:09:38,840 --> 02:09:41,560
Speaker 8: to see those fan bases have some success and those

2638
02:09:41,600 --> 02:09:43,880
Speaker 8: teams do well. So I'm not gonna say anything. I'm

2639
02:09:43,880 --> 02:09:46,280
Speaker 8: not gonna raid on the parade. I'm just gonna say congratulations.

2640
02:09:46,560 --> 02:09:48,440
Speaker 8: And I hope this is a start of a new

2641
02:09:48,480 --> 02:09:49,160
Speaker 8: trend for you guys.

2642
02:09:49,400 --> 02:09:51,040
Speaker 3: So I you know, I don't want to make you

2643
02:09:51,080 --> 02:09:52,680
Speaker 3: talk about that receiving thing, because I know you guys

2644
02:09:52,720 --> 02:09:53,160
Speaker 3: are friends.

2645
02:09:53,640 --> 02:09:55,440
Speaker 2: If you if you'd rather not talk about it, I

2646
02:09:55,480 --> 02:09:57,360
Speaker 2: don't want to make you feel.

2647
02:09:57,240 --> 02:10:00,760
Speaker 8: I mean, it's like the biggest story in sports right now,

2648
02:10:00,800 --> 02:10:04,040
Speaker 8: which is kind of crazy and it's sallacious and you know,

2649
02:10:04,200 --> 02:10:06,920
Speaker 8: like it checks all the boxes of things that people

2650
02:10:06,960 --> 02:10:08,840
Speaker 8: want to read about. I am friends with her, so

2651
02:10:08,960 --> 02:10:11,080
Speaker 8: it it definitely put me in Big Cat in a

2652
02:10:11,920 --> 02:10:15,080
Speaker 8: tough position because we're not like friends with Diana, but

2653
02:10:15,160 --> 02:10:18,360
Speaker 8: we're also friends with Mike Rabel. And if this was

2654
02:10:19,040 --> 02:10:21,240
Speaker 8: a story where it's like, you know, two people that

2655
02:10:21,400 --> 02:10:24,320
Speaker 8: are are meeting up and you know, having a secret

2656
02:10:24,320 --> 02:10:27,120
Speaker 8: affair in a hotel, but there's no families involved, that

2657
02:10:27,160 --> 02:10:28,840
Speaker 8: would make it easier and more.

2658
02:10:28,720 --> 02:10:30,320
Speaker 2: Fun for us to joke around about it.

2659
02:10:30,720 --> 02:10:32,680
Speaker 8: But like we know the families and it's just it

2660
02:10:32,720 --> 02:10:35,480
Speaker 8: would feel weird to like make fun of them and

2661
02:10:35,600 --> 02:10:38,480
Speaker 8: to pile on, so we we you know, admittedly we

2662
02:10:38,560 --> 02:10:41,520
Speaker 8: kind of took the coward's way out on this morning's

2663
02:10:41,600 --> 02:10:44,160
Speaker 8: part of my take and just said like, yeah, we're

2664
02:10:44,200 --> 02:10:46,640
Speaker 8: a really bad spot right now and we're not gonna

2665
02:10:46,640 --> 02:10:47,200
Speaker 8: make fun of them.

2666
02:10:47,240 --> 02:10:48,040
Speaker 5: But it does.

2667
02:10:48,800 --> 02:10:50,760
Speaker 8: I don't think that the story's over. I feel like

2668
02:10:50,800 --> 02:10:54,320
Speaker 8: there's gonna be more wrinkles that come out and we'll

2669
02:10:54,320 --> 02:10:56,440
Speaker 8: see what's going on. But yeah, it's pretty crazy news

2670
02:10:56,560 --> 02:10:58,720
Speaker 8: to just have break on a casual Tuesday.

2671
02:10:58,960 --> 02:11:01,200
Speaker 2: Do you think Belichick is behind the photos?

2672
02:11:02,640 --> 02:11:04,440
Speaker 8: Oh, that's I mean, that's a great point. They were.

2673
02:11:04,880 --> 02:11:07,920
Speaker 8: The photos were remarkably clear. That's the first thing that

2674
02:11:08,000 --> 02:11:08,360
Speaker 8: I noticed.

2675
02:11:08,440 --> 02:11:10,840
Speaker 2: It's like Jordan got good at photographing.

2676
02:11:12,040 --> 02:11:15,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, somebody's got to telephoto lens. Ernie Adams. Maybe Ernie

2677
02:11:15,480 --> 02:11:19,400
Speaker 8: Adams might have been hanging out there, but they were

2678
02:11:19,720 --> 02:11:22,480
Speaker 8: remarkably clear photos that I don't know if somebody was

2679
02:11:22,560 --> 02:11:25,760
Speaker 8: like staking them out or how that went down, but

2680
02:11:25,840 --> 02:11:28,320
Speaker 8: it seems like also the fact that it took place

2681
02:11:28,400 --> 02:11:31,000
Speaker 8: like two weeks ago and it's now just coming out,

2682
02:11:31,680 --> 02:11:33,920
Speaker 8: there's like there's something that's going on behind the scenes.

2683
02:11:33,960 --> 02:11:36,560
Speaker 8: I don't know what it is, but yeah, this is

2684
02:11:36,600 --> 02:11:38,280
Speaker 8: one of those stories where I really wish that I

2685
02:11:38,400 --> 02:11:41,160
Speaker 8: wasn't close friends with both of them, because this would

2686
02:11:41,200 --> 02:11:43,880
Speaker 8: be a story that I would absolutely just love to

2687
02:11:43,880 --> 02:11:45,880
Speaker 8: stick my teeth into. But you know, at the end

2688
02:11:45,880 --> 02:11:48,680
Speaker 8: of the day, it's like I'm friends with her family,

2689
02:11:48,760 --> 02:11:51,760
Speaker 8: and like I just I feel bad for everybody that's

2690
02:11:51,800 --> 02:11:55,360
Speaker 8: even like tangentially involved in the story. So it makes

2691
02:11:55,400 --> 02:11:57,160
Speaker 8: it just like a little bit less funny for me.

2692
02:11:57,400 --> 02:12:00,560
Speaker 3: So let me just tell you that, like you being

2693
02:12:00,640 --> 02:12:03,040
Speaker 3: connected to the story and making it hard and awkward

2694
02:12:03,160 --> 02:12:05,880
Speaker 3: for you to have like funny takes on and everything

2695
02:12:06,200 --> 02:12:09,000
Speaker 3: because you're so close to it and we're so close

2696
02:12:09,080 --> 02:12:12,840
Speaker 3: with you, I also now feel once removed awkward about

2697
02:12:12,880 --> 02:12:15,200
Speaker 3: it and would rather not discuss it very much more.

2698
02:12:17,120 --> 02:12:19,400
Speaker 8: That's how you do pr That's that's how it's done

2699
02:12:19,480 --> 02:12:21,960
Speaker 8: right there now, Like it's like, have at it. If

2700
02:12:22,000 --> 02:12:24,120
Speaker 8: I were, if I were in your position, I would like, Okay,

2701
02:12:24,240 --> 02:12:26,240
Speaker 8: we got we got a week sport material on the show.

2702
02:12:26,320 --> 02:12:29,640
Speaker 2: Let's let it rip. We'll do it when you're not on.

2703
02:12:30,960 --> 02:12:32,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, just get as soon as I hang up, just

2704
02:12:32,640 --> 02:12:33,840
Speaker 8: like go right back to it.

2705
02:12:35,160 --> 02:12:36,480
Speaker 3: So well, let me ask you this one thing I

2706
02:12:36,520 --> 02:12:39,120
Speaker 3: did want to ask you about. Troy Aikman just came

2707
02:12:39,200 --> 02:12:42,400
Speaker 3: out and said, the Dolphins are hiring me because I

2708
02:12:42,520 --> 02:12:48,400
Speaker 3: have inside information. Okay, well should we let NFL teams

2709
02:12:48,920 --> 02:12:53,080
Speaker 3: continue to hire Tom Brady, Troy Aikman, people who get

2710
02:12:53,200 --> 02:12:57,160
Speaker 3: inside information via their broadcasting jobs each week from the

2711
02:12:57,200 --> 02:13:00,400
Speaker 3: teams that they're covering stuff that is supposed to be secret,

2712
02:13:00,480 --> 02:13:04,520
Speaker 3: insider things that they use to bolster their the foundation

2713
02:13:04,960 --> 02:13:07,840
Speaker 3: of their analysis, and now he can just give that

2714
02:13:08,000 --> 02:13:11,600
Speaker 3: to another team. Brady's been criticized for this already. How

2715
02:13:11,760 --> 02:13:13,200
Speaker 3: is the league allowing that?

2716
02:13:14,280 --> 02:13:17,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, well it's it's because they use the kid gloves

2717
02:13:17,080 --> 02:13:19,400
Speaker 8: on Tom Brady that now they can't. They set the precedent.

2718
02:13:19,520 --> 02:13:21,400
Speaker 8: So Troyan's like, yeah, I want, I want some of

2719
02:13:21,440 --> 02:13:23,480
Speaker 8: that conflict, and just give me some of that. And

2720
02:13:23,720 --> 02:13:26,280
Speaker 8: the league is in no position to do anything at

2721
02:13:26,280 --> 02:13:28,400
Speaker 8: all about it. Nothing really matters anymore when it comes

2722
02:13:28,440 --> 02:13:31,480
Speaker 8: to ethics. So I don't think that there's the like

2723
02:13:31,560 --> 02:13:34,360
Speaker 8: you'll get the watchdogs and the people that have a

2724
02:13:34,440 --> 02:13:36,760
Speaker 8: couple functioning brain cells that are looking at what's going

2725
02:13:36,800 --> 02:13:39,320
Speaker 8: on saying, hey, this is really beast stuff, and I

2726
02:13:39,400 --> 02:13:42,640
Speaker 8: don't know if I can trust anything that Troy ever

2727
02:13:42,760 --> 02:13:45,840
Speaker 8: says on TV, if he's doing Monday Night Football, I

2728
02:13:46,200 --> 02:13:49,560
Speaker 8: can't believe that he's actually delivering like the best product

2729
02:13:49,640 --> 02:13:52,160
Speaker 8: to the viewer and not just thinking about his other

2730
02:13:52,240 --> 02:13:54,800
Speaker 8: job with the Dolphins. But none of that really matters anymore.

2731
02:13:54,840 --> 02:13:57,280
Speaker 8: If people watch when a Night Football and they watch

2732
02:13:57,400 --> 02:14:00,960
Speaker 8: while Troy's on, nothing's gonna change. And that's just kind

2733
02:14:01,000 --> 02:14:03,160
Speaker 8: of that's the world that we're in right now. So

2734
02:14:03,920 --> 02:14:06,040
Speaker 8: we can we can try to fight it, or we

2735
02:14:06,080 --> 02:14:08,680
Speaker 8: can just kind of sit back and just be like, yeah,

2736
02:14:08,720 --> 02:14:11,560
Speaker 8: phoebe that slop Danny and just have have Goodell keep

2737
02:14:11,600 --> 02:14:13,680
Speaker 8: shoving it down of throats. Because I don't think anything's

2738
02:14:13,680 --> 02:14:15,240
Speaker 8: gonna change. I don't think that there's going to be

2739
02:14:16,520 --> 02:14:20,280
Speaker 8: like unless Troy does something that's like blatantly obvious or

2740
02:14:20,360 --> 02:14:24,560
Speaker 8: Tom Brady's something this blatantly obvious and blatantly underhanded. I

2741
02:14:24,600 --> 02:14:27,720
Speaker 8: don't think that Candel is going to be motivated to

2742
02:14:28,160 --> 02:14:30,520
Speaker 8: do anything. Get up at the Apple, Cark, those checks

2743
02:14:30,560 --> 02:14:31,360
Speaker 8: are cashing right now.

2744
02:14:31,480 --> 02:14:34,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, nonsports related question for you, does the

2745
02:14:35,840 --> 02:14:40,040
Speaker 3: current Artemis two mission that is happening going around the moon,

2746
02:14:41,040 --> 02:14:43,800
Speaker 3: what does that do to the moon landing deniers.

2747
02:14:45,200 --> 02:14:47,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a tough day for them. Don't don't find

2748
02:14:47,200 --> 02:14:50,000
Speaker 8: a way though they always do. They're creative. They'll find

2749
02:14:50,160 --> 02:14:52,120
Speaker 8: like some artifact of the picture of those doom in

2750
02:14:52,280 --> 02:14:53,640
Speaker 8: on it and be like, this is not real.

2751
02:14:53,800 --> 02:14:54,240
Speaker 5: I found that.

2752
02:14:54,680 --> 02:14:57,520
Speaker 8: This is like NASA forgot to remove the waterka getting

2753
02:14:57,600 --> 02:15:00,960
Speaker 8: watermark or something like that. Don't figure out way. The

2754
02:15:01,160 --> 02:15:04,800
Speaker 8: very resourced lunch and honestly, this is like, this is

2755
02:15:05,560 --> 02:15:07,600
Speaker 8: I think good for them. I think it's really good

2756
02:15:07,640 --> 02:15:11,560
Speaker 8: for the for the flat earthers, for the moon landing denialists,

2757
02:15:11,560 --> 02:15:13,720
Speaker 8: because it gives them brand new material to work with

2758
02:15:14,320 --> 02:15:16,240
Speaker 8: and they get to be creative. They get to come

2759
02:15:16,320 --> 02:15:19,320
Speaker 8: up with the stories and find new new slants and conspiracies.

2760
02:15:20,080 --> 02:15:22,320
Speaker 8: So this is like, yeah, this is a great day

2761
02:15:22,360 --> 02:15:24,080
Speaker 8: for them. They've got a whole bunch of new source

2762
02:15:24,160 --> 02:15:26,800
Speaker 8: material that they can come through and figure out weird,

2763
02:15:26,880 --> 02:15:29,520
Speaker 8: weird stuff to talk about. But this is we are

2764
02:15:29,640 --> 02:15:31,200
Speaker 8: going back to the moon, right, This is like a

2765
02:15:31,280 --> 02:15:34,880
Speaker 8: prep mission for twenty twenty eight I think where we're

2766
02:15:34,880 --> 02:15:37,560
Speaker 8: gonna be landing on the Moon again and starting to Yeah,

2767
02:15:37,800 --> 02:15:38,480
Speaker 8: put together.

2768
02:15:38,320 --> 02:15:40,400
Speaker 2: It's like going down to the game and parking your

2769
02:15:40,480 --> 02:15:42,200
Speaker 2: van for the tailgate the day before.

2770
02:15:43,520 --> 02:15:45,600
Speaker 8: Oh I love that. Yeah, I I love that idea.

2771
02:15:45,600 --> 02:15:48,160
Speaker 8: We're scouting out the best, the best location, the best.

2772
02:15:48,480 --> 02:15:50,360
Speaker 8: Like it's we got access to a porta potty over

2773
02:15:50,440 --> 02:15:54,520
Speaker 8: here right stage, so we're gonna have the uh yeah,

2774
02:15:54,560 --> 02:15:55,880
Speaker 8: the thirty eight special cover band.

2775
02:15:55,840 --> 02:15:56,440
Speaker 2: Is gonna be set up.

Speaker 8: Oh yeah, yeah, it's gonna be great. We'll put to

2777
02:16:00,160 --> 02:16:03,440
Speaker 8: take it perfect perfect, gest Yeah. I do like the

2778
02:16:03,920 --> 02:16:06,080
Speaker 8: high definition pictures that we're getting back because for a

2779
02:16:06,200 --> 02:16:08,280
Speaker 8: long time, all we have, like most of the pictures

2780
02:16:08,320 --> 02:16:10,800
Speaker 8: we had of space just they felt like they were

2781
02:16:10,800 --> 02:16:13,640
Speaker 8: from nineteen twenty. So it's good to get some content out.

2782
02:16:13,640 --> 02:16:14,840
Speaker 2: Like the Bigfoot film or something.

2783
02:16:14,840 --> 02:16:17,000
Speaker 3: It does seem like a long way to go all

2784
02:16:17,080 --> 02:16:19,880
Speaker 3: the way to the moon and just not land on

2785
02:16:19,960 --> 02:16:22,160
Speaker 3: the moon, don't you think, Like I mean driving the

2786
02:16:22,280 --> 02:16:24,720
Speaker 3: Disney World and turning around, Yeah, or like driving through

2787
02:16:24,760 --> 02:16:26,960
Speaker 3: a nice neighborhood and being like we could live there,

2788
02:16:27,040 --> 02:16:27,760
Speaker 3: but we can't.

2789
02:16:27,960 --> 02:16:28,360
Speaker 2: We won't.

2790
02:16:29,400 --> 02:16:29,600
Speaker 7: Yeah.

2791
02:16:29,600 --> 02:16:31,760
Speaker 8: It's like, yeah, taking a road trip to the Grand

2792
02:16:31,840 --> 02:16:34,840
Speaker 8: Canyon not getting out of the car, or like going

2793
02:16:34,879 --> 02:16:37,280
Speaker 8: to Mount Rushmore and not not walking a little bit

2794
02:16:37,320 --> 02:16:39,320
Speaker 8: closer to it. I kind of understand, like as a

2795
02:16:39,400 --> 02:16:44,600
Speaker 8: lazy man myself. Way better than getting up and moving around.

2796
02:16:45,040 --> 02:16:46,640
Speaker 8: They're just looking out the window, Like I get the

2797
02:16:46,720 --> 02:16:49,119
Speaker 8: gist stuff on the moon, you get like if you're

2798
02:16:49,120 --> 02:16:50,840
Speaker 8: the first person to see stuff on the moon, you'd

2799
02:16:50,840 --> 02:16:53,000
Speaker 8: be like, I get to name that. Now, that's pretty cool.

2800
02:16:53,000 --> 02:16:55,280
Speaker 8: We don't have that much in the way of like

2801
02:16:55,400 --> 02:17:00,640
Speaker 8: discovering brand new landmarks and features geographical feature in America

2802
02:17:00,800 --> 02:17:03,200
Speaker 8: or really the world anymore. So it's good to see

2803
02:17:03,280 --> 02:17:05,199
Speaker 8: new stuff and get new names for it. I would

2804
02:17:05,280 --> 02:17:06,200
Speaker 8: like to do that. I would like to be in

2805
02:17:06,320 --> 02:17:07,200
Speaker 8: charge of naming stuff.

2806
02:17:07,720 --> 02:17:10,039
Speaker 3: PFT comment I brought to you by Yongling this morning

2807
02:17:10,520 --> 02:17:12,800
Speaker 3: may get a Yingling traditional logger from the oldest brewery

2808
02:17:12,800 --> 02:17:14,640
Speaker 3: in America. I didn't even think about the flat earthers,

2809
02:17:14,959 --> 02:17:16,560
Speaker 3: like this has gotta be a tough moment.

2810
02:17:18,200 --> 02:17:20,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, I did think that. That was my original take,

2811
02:17:20,360 --> 02:17:23,200
Speaker 8: which is like that this is a really really bad

2812
02:17:23,280 --> 02:17:24,880
Speaker 8: day for them. Pour one out for the flat earther

2813
02:17:25,040 --> 02:17:26,880
Speaker 8: if you know, somebody's given a call and checking on them.

2814
02:17:27,280 --> 02:17:30,200
Speaker 8: But then but if you just flip your perspective on it,

2815
02:17:30,640 --> 02:17:32,560
Speaker 8: like this is a great day. They've got so much

2816
02:17:32,640 --> 02:17:35,959
Speaker 8: new stuff to work with, new conspiracies to find it's

2817
02:17:36,120 --> 02:17:38,680
Speaker 8: it's perfect. So I think they'll figure out a way

2818
02:17:39,360 --> 02:17:41,680
Speaker 8: and they'll make it through just fine. So don't worry

2819
02:17:41,720 --> 02:17:42,680
Speaker 8: too much about PFT.

2820
02:17:42,760 --> 02:17:45,240
Speaker 2: Always a pleasure. We'll talk to you soon, all right,

2821
02:17:45,280 --> 02:17:46,440
Speaker 2: have a great week day man. All right?

2822

2837
02:18:34,280 --> 02:18:37,560
Speaker 12: brought to you by Bridgeville Plants. You know, Jeff said

2838
02:18:37,600 --> 02:18:40,040
Speaker 12: something last hour that has really stuck with me. In

2839
02:18:40,080 --> 02:18:43,880
Speaker 12: the wake of the official announcement of Connor Griffin's nine

2840
02:18:43,920 --> 02:18:47,800
Speaker 12: year extension for a report one hundred and forty million dollars,

2841
02:18:48,240 --> 02:18:50,480
Speaker 12: Jeff said, it might have to rethink that ten game

2842
02:18:50,520 --> 02:18:56,480
Speaker 12: ticket plan thing because the game just changed. And what

2843
02:18:56,600 --> 02:19:00,160
Speaker 12: I've been thinking about along with that is I have

2844
02:19:00,240 --> 02:19:02,280
Speaker 12: a real good friend of mine. He's one of the

2845
02:19:02,320 --> 02:19:04,480
Speaker 12: guys that's going to the Frozen four with me today.

2846
02:19:04,800 --> 02:19:07,720
Speaker 12: And I played softball with this guy forever. He is

2847
02:19:07,800 --> 02:19:10,360
Speaker 12: a baseball guy to the court, likes all sports, but

2848
02:19:10,480 --> 02:19:13,800
Speaker 12: baseball's number one. And for the last I don't know

2849
02:19:13,840 --> 02:19:17,240
Speaker 12: how many years, he has refused to buy Pirates tickets

2850
02:19:17,320 --> 02:19:21,640
Speaker 12: because of Bob Nunning. Refused yea, even when Skeen's got it. Hey,

2851
02:19:21,680 --> 02:19:24,080
Speaker 12: come on, man, they're playing the Cardinals, let's go Nope.

2852
02:19:24,040 --> 02:19:25,400
Speaker 2: Not doing it. Not doing it now.

2853
02:19:25,879 --> 02:19:27,560
Speaker 12: He knows a guy who knows the guy who knows

2854
02:19:27,600 --> 02:19:29,000
Speaker 12: the guy, and every once in a while he gets

2855
02:19:29,040 --> 02:19:32,920
Speaker 12: freebies exactly so he has gone to PNC Park when

2856
02:19:33,080 --> 02:19:36,760
Speaker 12: it's free to go see the Pirates. He has gone

2857
02:19:36,840 --> 02:19:39,400
Speaker 12: to Philly, he has gone to Saint Louis, he has

2858
02:19:39,480 --> 02:19:40,360
Speaker 12: gone to New York.

2859
02:19:40,600 --> 02:19:41,640
Speaker 2: He's gone to Arizona.

2860
02:19:41,760 --> 02:19:44,959
Speaker 12: I think he's seen every nationally ballpark since he's bought

2861
02:19:44,959 --> 02:19:48,360
Speaker 12: a ticket at PNC Park, all because of Bob Nunning.

2862
02:19:49,360 --> 02:19:51,920
Speaker 12: And I bet he's not the only guy that has

2863
02:19:52,000 --> 02:19:53,240
Speaker 12: refused to buy tickets.

2864
02:19:53,400 --> 02:19:56,240
Speaker 3: I know he's not because I know several people who

2865
02:19:56,800 --> 02:20:00,680
Speaker 3: have the exact same rule about this. And I ran

2866
02:20:00,720 --> 02:20:02,720
Speaker 3: into one at the home opener and I was like, Wow,

2867
02:20:02,800 --> 02:20:04,040
Speaker 3: what are you doing here? And he's like, I got

2868
02:20:04,120 --> 02:20:06,840
Speaker 3: a freebee. Yeah, otherwise I wouldn't be here. I think

2869
02:20:06,920 --> 02:20:11,240
Speaker 3: that changes now, It might, It might lab it. I mean,

2870
02:20:11,320 --> 02:20:15,080
Speaker 3: he's they have made the commitment. Yeah, I think it's

2871
02:20:15,080 --> 02:20:18,000
Speaker 3: gonna get crowded down there, I hope, so, you know,

2872
02:20:18,040 --> 02:20:19,960
Speaker 3: and I'm a guy I would wake up on an

2873
02:20:19,959 --> 02:20:22,840
Speaker 3: odd Sunday morning, I think I'll go to the game today.

2874
02:20:23,840 --> 02:20:26,320
Speaker 12: It goes sit wherever you want, or you know, you

2875
02:20:26,440 --> 02:20:31,280
Speaker 12: could get relatively expensive seats on the secondary market for.

2876
02:20:31,480 --> 02:20:33,480
Speaker 3: Pretty cheap, and he's on the dollar. But I kind

2877
02:20:33,520 --> 02:20:35,320
Speaker 3: of hate to say it, like going to a bait.

2878
02:20:35,440 --> 02:20:38,280
Speaker 3: That's one of the appeals of the Pirates game is

2879
02:20:38,320 --> 02:20:40,959
Speaker 3: that you can do that. You can go on Sunday

2880
02:20:41,000 --> 02:20:43,840
Speaker 3: and there will be tickets available. Like I said, like

2881
02:20:44,000 --> 02:20:47,240
Speaker 3: the baseball in this town is like golf. Golf is

2882
02:20:47,320 --> 02:20:50,160
Speaker 3: more enjoyable the less people you have to contend with

2883
02:20:50,360 --> 02:20:52,720
Speaker 3: to do it, and baseball is kind of the same way.

2884
02:20:52,840 --> 02:20:54,480
Speaker 3: Like I don't feel like you get a lot out

2885
02:20:54,520 --> 02:20:56,520
Speaker 3: of a huge baseball crowd because a lot of times

2886
02:20:56,600 --> 02:20:58,280
Speaker 3: a lot of families run around. You feel okay with

2887
02:20:58,320 --> 02:21:00,280
Speaker 3: your kids kind of going up in the play place.

2888
02:21:00,320 --> 02:21:03,360
Speaker 3: If there's you know, forty thousand people there every single time,

2889
02:21:03,640 --> 02:21:05,440
Speaker 3: maybe that takes away from a little bit of the

2890
02:21:05,480 --> 02:21:05,920
Speaker 3: appeal of it.

2891
02:21:05,959 --> 02:21:08,600
Speaker 2: Oddly enough, like a in a weird kind of way.

2892
02:21:08,640 --> 02:21:11,080
Speaker 12: Well, I think you're certainly more willing to put up

2893
02:21:11,120 --> 02:21:13,560
Speaker 12: with that. In fact, you probably want that in September,

2894
02:21:13,680 --> 02:21:16,160
Speaker 12: but maybe not July, you know, if you just want

2895
02:21:16,200 --> 02:21:17,880
Speaker 12: to go. But I think the game has changed. I

2896
02:21:17,920 --> 02:21:20,600
Speaker 12: think Pire tickets are going to get harder to come

2897
02:21:20,680 --> 02:21:22,400
Speaker 12: by it. You're gonna have to advanced plan.

2898
02:21:22,720 --> 02:21:24,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, you'll be able to get those Sunday tickets. You

2899
02:21:24,480 --> 02:21:26,040
Speaker 3: just won't get the seats that are as good as

2900
02:21:26,080 --> 02:21:28,520
Speaker 3: you want them to be, not for the same price.

2901
02:21:29,320 --> 02:21:33,280
Speaker 2: But it's uh, this is a fascinating time. Uh, no question.

2902
02:21:33,440 --> 02:21:35,080
Speaker 3: And like I said, I think one of the fun

2903
02:21:35,160 --> 02:21:37,600
Speaker 3: things will be if they can keep playing well, keep

2904
02:21:37,640 --> 02:21:41,400
Speaker 3: winning games and staying contention as they get to the

2905
02:21:41,480 --> 02:21:44,279
Speaker 3: All Star break, you know, if they can keep hovering

2906
02:21:44,360 --> 02:21:47,120
Speaker 3: in first second, bouncing up and down there and then

2907
02:21:47,480 --> 02:21:50,760
Speaker 3: because the National League is not gonna you know, Central

2908
02:21:50,840 --> 02:21:54,240
Speaker 3: is not gonna set the world on fire. Shouldn't And

2909
02:21:54,400 --> 02:21:57,120
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, those series start to take on

2910
02:21:57,240 --> 02:22:00,320
Speaker 3: a whole new vibe when it's like, hey, they can

2911
02:22:00,360 --> 02:22:02,240
Speaker 3: take two out of three from the Brewers, They're gonna

2912
02:22:02,240 --> 02:22:04,320
Speaker 3: be in. If they can, you know, wipe out the

2913
02:22:04,400 --> 02:22:07,320
Speaker 3: Cubs today, that's gonna knock the Cubs back another game.

2914
02:22:07,640 --> 02:22:10,959
Speaker 3: All of that stuff starts to play into what you're

2915
02:22:11,000 --> 02:22:13,640
Speaker 3: paying attention to, which previously none of that matter because

2916
02:22:13,640 --> 02:22:15,039
Speaker 3: you were in the basement and you were like, oh,

2917
02:22:15,120 --> 02:22:17,440
Speaker 3: let's hope Skeens has a good outing today. Oh I'm

2918
02:22:17,480 --> 02:22:20,040
Speaker 3: interested to see if Bubba Chandler cannot stink today, you know,

2919
02:22:20,120 --> 02:22:23,000
Speaker 3: stuff like that, And now it's completely different. Or I

2920
02:22:23,040 --> 02:22:26,080
Speaker 3: want to watch Poolholes or or somebody from the other side,

2921
02:22:26,200 --> 02:22:27,760
Speaker 3: like Yachty Air Molina's in town.

2922
02:22:27,879 --> 02:22:28,760
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see them.

2923
02:22:28,840 --> 02:22:30,879
Speaker 3: But like I told you, like you know, years ago,

2924
02:22:31,480 --> 02:22:34,720
Speaker 3: just pissed me off, so bad sitting in that crowd

2925
02:22:34,760 --> 02:22:37,120
Speaker 3: of people, and whoever was pitching for the Pirates that

2926
02:22:37,200 --> 02:22:39,520
Speaker 3: and I can't even remember, was about to strike out

2927
02:22:39,560 --> 02:22:42,760
Speaker 3: the side and two strikes on the battery. Not one

2928
02:22:42,840 --> 02:22:46,760
Speaker 3: person in the entire stadium is paying attention to that,

2929
02:22:47,400 --> 02:22:49,560
Speaker 3: And like, now you're gonna people will be on there,

2930
02:22:49,840 --> 02:22:53,240
Speaker 3: you know, just that idea of paying attention to baseball

2931
02:22:53,280 --> 02:22:56,200
Speaker 3: and pitchsburg again. Could you not see the excitement in

2932
02:22:56,320 --> 02:23:00,680
Speaker 3: that home opener crowd. It was elect trick in there,

2933
02:23:00,800 --> 02:23:03,520
Speaker 3: and it can be like that for most of the year.

2934
02:23:03,840 --> 02:23:06,040
Speaker 12: And although they've been doing this the way they've been

2935
02:23:06,080 --> 02:23:08,520
Speaker 12: doing it for too long now, I don't think they've

2936
02:23:08,680 --> 02:23:13,000
Speaker 12: lost the hardcore baseball people like baseball is a sleeping giant.

2937
02:23:13,320 --> 02:23:19,320
Speaker 12: In this sleeping giant, that the popularity of it will explode.

2938
02:23:20,080 --> 02:23:22,160
Speaker 2: I have friends who have remained positive through all of this.

2939
02:23:23,040 --> 02:23:29,560
Speaker 16: Through all of it, they have seen positive rays of

2940
02:23:29,720 --> 02:23:33,560
Speaker 16: light and only focused their attention on that and didn't

2941
02:23:33,680 --> 02:23:36,480
Speaker 16: understand why nobody else could see that that kind of pirate.

2942
02:23:36,440 --> 02:23:39,120
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, like you know, the Penguins are clearly

2943
02:23:39,320 --> 02:23:42,160
Speaker 3: the town's second team, but if the Pirates get good,

2944
02:23:42,520 --> 02:23:43,920
Speaker 3: they are third.

2945
02:23:44,080 --> 02:23:47,560
Speaker 2: In a split second, there is no doubt about it.

2946
02:23:47,920 --> 02:23:48,320
Speaker 2: And that's not.

2947
02:23:50,000 --> 02:23:54,279
Speaker 12: At all much more traditional American sport in this market,

2948
02:23:56,120 --> 02:23:58,320
Speaker 12: hockey's done very well, and you know it's going to

2949
02:23:58,360 --> 02:24:00,200
Speaker 12: be an exciting time for them as well, with the

2950
02:24:00,240 --> 02:24:02,760
Speaker 12: playoffs for the first time in four years and what

2951
02:24:02,920 --> 02:24:06,080
Speaker 12: that team might be possible of achieving. But people have

2952
02:24:06,240 --> 02:24:09,600
Speaker 12: been thirsting for meaningful Pirates games.

2953
02:24:11,680 --> 02:24:14,080
Speaker 2: Well, Bob Nutting just gave you a drink. He's going

2954
02:24:14,160 --> 02:24:16,040
Speaker 2: to charge you for it, and it's going to be

2955
02:24:16,080 --> 02:24:20,240
Speaker 2: forty eight ounces, but still it's available. It's available.

2956
02:24:21,560 --> 02:24:25,200
Speaker 3: Welcome back, nine year extension for Connograph one hundred and

2957
02:24:25,200 --> 02:24:29,200
Speaker 3: forty million, five million bonus up front. I saw like

2958
02:24:29,320 --> 02:24:33,760
Speaker 3: ten million dollars possible elevation for hitting certain benchmarks.

2959
02:24:34,080 --> 02:24:35,760
Speaker 2: Just it's remarkable.

2960
02:24:37,000 --> 02:24:39,720
Speaker 3: I still think I still feel like the Pirate's got

2961
02:24:39,760 --> 02:24:43,440
Speaker 3: a deal at one hundred and forty million because he

2962
02:24:43,480 --> 02:24:45,200
Speaker 3: could wait a couple of years and sign the big one.

2963
02:24:45,280 --> 02:24:46,840
Speaker 2: But I guess, yeah, although I have.

2964
02:24:46,879 --> 02:24:48,440
Speaker 3: To tell you they must have got their act together,

2965
02:24:48,480 --> 02:24:51,080
Speaker 3: because I feel like sometimes these extensions, you know, the

2966
02:24:51,160 --> 02:24:53,400
Speaker 3: Pirates don't have a great reputation for being in it

2967
02:24:53,520 --> 02:24:56,200
Speaker 3: for the long haul, so I mean they must have

2968
02:24:56,320 --> 02:24:59,000
Speaker 3: really impressed him with future plans for him to even

2969
02:24:59,160 --> 02:25:00,760
Speaker 3: consider it, because I don't care if you have a

2970
02:25:00,800 --> 02:25:02,920
Speaker 3: lot of money. If I'm not going to win, or

2971
02:25:03,040 --> 02:25:04,760
Speaker 3: you're not going to put anything around me or anything

2972
02:25:04,800 --> 02:25:07,120
Speaker 3: like that, then I'm not really I don't even know

2973
02:25:07,160 --> 02:25:08,560
Speaker 3: if the money matters to this guy.

2974
02:25:08,720 --> 02:25:11,600
Speaker 12: You know, everybody that we've talked to and we've been

2975
02:25:12,360 --> 02:25:15,320
Speaker 12: talking about seemingly nothing but him since spring training started, right,

2976
02:25:16,680 --> 02:25:22,280
Speaker 12: different breed of cat, different guy, nineteen going on thirty, married, mature, grounded,

2977
02:25:23,200 --> 02:25:24,640
Speaker 12: knows who he is and what he wants to do.

2978
02:25:25,240 --> 02:25:28,560
Speaker 12: And during our chat with Noah Heiles today, Noah talked

2979
02:25:28,600 --> 02:25:33,000
Speaker 12: about his perception that Griffin thinks he's been treated really

2980
02:25:33,040 --> 02:25:34,840
Speaker 12: well by the Pirates, and part of that might be

2981
02:25:34,959 --> 02:25:35,680
Speaker 12: he just doesn't have.

2982
02:25:36,040 --> 02:25:38,199
Speaker 2: Anything to compare it to who would at that age.

2983
02:25:38,800 --> 02:25:40,879
Speaker 2: But you know, if you're happy, you're happy.

2984
02:25:40,680 --> 02:25:43,000
Speaker 3: Right, I don't know, the Aljuna Curve treated me pretty

2985
02:25:43,160 --> 02:25:43,760
Speaker 3: nice up there.

2986
02:25:44,520 --> 02:25:46,920
Speaker 12: If you don't care what other people think about what

2987
02:25:47,040 --> 02:25:48,680
Speaker 12: you like or who you want to be or what

2988
02:25:48,840 --> 02:25:50,520
Speaker 12: you want to do, that's the best place to be

2989
02:25:50,600 --> 02:25:51,879
Speaker 12: in the world, right, no question.

2990
02:25:53,840 --> 02:25:56,160
Speaker 2: I think, like what Noah Heile said earlier, you know,

2991
02:25:57,400 --> 02:25:58,600
Speaker 2: this is the big city to him.

2992
02:25:58,800 --> 02:26:04,440
Speaker 12: Yeah, and the huge the huge payday relative to this one,

2993
02:26:04,440 --> 02:26:07,520
Speaker 12: which is huge, is still attainable at twenty seven, twenty eight.

2994
02:26:07,760 --> 02:26:10,920
Speaker 3: That's imagine one hundred and forty in Pittsburgh. Yeah, it's

2995
02:26:10,959 --> 02:26:13,240
Speaker 3: not chump change, you know, it's not one hundred and

2996
02:26:13,240 --> 02:26:17,080
Speaker 3: forty in New York. That goes a lot further. You

2997
02:26:17,160 --> 02:26:19,800
Speaker 3: could buy one of those townhomes in the Strip District

2998
02:26:19,879 --> 02:26:20,800
Speaker 3: probably maybe one.

2999
02:26:21,000 --> 02:26:26,160
Speaker 17: Yeah, fifty five thousand watch at one O two point

3000
02:26:26,240 --> 02:26:31,160
Speaker 17: five and streaming on all your devices everywhin save us

3001
02:26:31,200 --> 02:26:33,720
Speaker 17: as a preset on the free iHeart radio.

3002
02:26:33,600 --> 02:26:39,199
Speaker 5: App Pittsburgh's w DV. Running a small business means juggling

3003
02:26:39,280 --> 02:26:42,160
Speaker 5: a lot. Your network has to handle it all. That's

3004
02:26:42,200 --> 02:26:44,360
Speaker 5: where a fiber only provider falls short.

3005
02:26:44,879 --> 02:26:46,119
Speaker 2: You need a partner who get.

3006
02:26:46,000 --> 02:26:51,520
Speaker 4: Conkle hoist the cone. Just don't steal the cone.

3007
02:26:51,920 --> 02:26:55,760
Speaker 3: Hoist a cone that you buy because traffic's already buy

3008
02:26:55,840 --> 02:26:59,480
Speaker 3: a code. You can buy cones. Go to the Cone store. Yeah,

3009
02:26:59,520 --> 02:27:02,120
Speaker 3: and down to the Cone District on Cone Street, So

3010
02:27:03,040 --> 02:27:08,440
Speaker 3: what od con That's right, traffic's already a mess. And uh,

3011
02:27:08,680 --> 02:27:11,199
Speaker 3: there's so much construction leading up to the draft. Jeff

3012
02:27:11,200 --> 02:27:14,000
Speaker 3: you're out about driving around out there. You see how

3013
02:27:14,160 --> 02:27:18,480
Speaker 3: rough it is already. This spur of cone stealing can't

3014
02:27:18,520 --> 02:27:18,880
Speaker 3: be good.

3015
02:27:19,000 --> 02:27:19,600
Speaker 2: It doesn't.

3016
02:27:19,600 --> 02:27:23,080
Speaker 3: It can't make anything any worse, And I'd like, okay,

3017
02:27:23,840 --> 02:27:28,040
Speaker 3: it can't, because we're already horrible drivers in here in Pittsburgh.

3018
02:27:28,160 --> 02:27:32,120
Speaker 3: And in addition to a comedian, I also dabble in poetry,

3019
02:27:32,680 --> 02:27:34,800
Speaker 3: and I have a poem that i'd like to read

3020
02:27:34,840 --> 02:27:37,800
Speaker 3: on the air today, and it's called an ode to

3021
02:27:37,920 --> 02:27:41,160
Speaker 3: the guy trying to merge right before the Fort pitt Tunnels.

3022
02:27:42,160 --> 02:27:43,800
Speaker 2: Do you want like music? Do you give me a

3023
02:27:43,840 --> 02:27:45,360
Speaker 2: little bed? Yeah? Sure, sure.

3024
02:27:45,640 --> 02:27:47,920
Speaker 3: Now I want to say this is a poem about

3025
02:27:48,000 --> 02:27:51,640
Speaker 3: patience and understanding. Okay, an ode to the guy trying

3026
02:27:51,680 --> 02:27:53,560
Speaker 3: to merge right before the Fort Pit Tunnels.

3027
02:27:53,600 --> 02:27:56,720
Speaker 2: Okay, and uh let me cue this up here.

3028
02:27:56,800 --> 02:28:02,119
Speaker 3: You go in two one hundred feet. Our paths will

3029
02:28:02,200 --> 02:28:05,960
Speaker 3: soon meet. As we drive. When the morning begins, you

3030
02:28:06,120 --> 02:28:09,520
Speaker 3: think that you're slick. It's a well known trick. But

3031
02:28:09,680 --> 02:28:13,360
Speaker 3: there's no way I'm letting your ass in. Are you

3032
02:28:13,400 --> 02:28:16,320
Speaker 3: out of your brain? Riding the right lane? Now you're

3033
02:28:16,360 --> 02:28:20,120
Speaker 3: breaking the zipper merge code, your turn signals on. But

3034
02:28:20,240 --> 02:28:23,560
Speaker 3: we're too far gone. Your chance passed back at Banksville Road.

3035
02:28:27,520 --> 02:28:31,760
Speaker 3: He's probably older. He's up on the shoulder. Learn to

3036
02:28:31,879 --> 02:28:35,840
Speaker 3: drive right, you pufthetic clown. I'm afraid you're too late.

3037
02:28:36,080 --> 02:28:39,520
Speaker 3: Now you've sealed your fate. Yes, you're going to Union Town.

3038
02:28:42,560 --> 02:28:43,800
Speaker 3: Now he's up on my bumper.

3039
02:28:43,959 --> 02:28:45,080
Speaker 2: Go after your mother.

3040
02:28:47,320 --> 02:28:47,440
Speaker 8: Now.

3041
02:28:47,480 --> 02:28:51,400
Speaker 3: The four Pit Tunnel Road road rage is bruin. I

3042
02:28:51,520 --> 02:28:53,280
Speaker 3: slam on the brakes. He swerved in.

3043
02:28:53,400 --> 02:28:56,680
Speaker 4: For Christ's sakes, I scream out, oh, what are you going?

3044
02:28:58,480 --> 02:29:02,280
Speaker 3: I must see his face, the awful disgrace. I speed

3045
02:29:02,360 --> 02:29:05,760
Speaker 3: past him, yelling, son of a whore. He's got a

3046
02:29:05,879 --> 02:29:10,959
Speaker 3: dumb hat. I take it all back, it says, veteran

3047
02:29:11,320 --> 02:29:14,800
Speaker 3: Vietnam War. Sorry, never mind, come right in.

3048
02:29:17,800 --> 02:29:19,880
Speaker 2: That is my ode to the guy trying to merge

3049
02:29:19,959 --> 02:29:21,320
Speaker 2: right before the four pins on us.

3050
02:29:21,520 --> 02:29:26,280
Speaker 3: Pretty good stuff right there. I am the expert at

3051
02:29:26,400 --> 02:29:29,199
Speaker 3: making that merge move and I'll.

3052
02:29:29,160 --> 02:29:32,240
Speaker 2: Let's hear it. I will always say to my Uber.

3053
02:29:32,200 --> 02:29:35,280
Speaker 3: Driver Lyft driver most actually, I always say Uber is

3054
02:29:35,360 --> 02:29:38,199
Speaker 3: like a general, you know, it's like xerox ying something

3055
02:29:39,360 --> 02:29:43,039
Speaker 3: I usually use Lyft. But I'll always say to them,

3056
02:29:43,520 --> 02:29:44,600
Speaker 3: is they're going down banks Fall?

3057
02:29:44,800 --> 02:29:45,200
Speaker 8: Like now?

3058
02:29:45,360 --> 02:29:48,440
Speaker 3: If you'd like I'll tell you how to navigate the

3059
02:29:48,959 --> 02:29:52,920
Speaker 3: interchange here, you know, really easily, because.

3060
02:29:52,720 --> 02:29:54,680
Speaker 2: Not every lyft driver or uber.

3061
02:29:54,560 --> 02:29:59,800
Speaker 3: Driver knows that intersection, knows the merge from coming from

3062
02:29:59,840 --> 02:30:02,880
Speaker 3: the so Hills into that traffic, and a lot of

3063
02:30:02,959 --> 02:30:07,040
Speaker 3: them want to do the immediate stop and try to

3064
02:30:07,080 --> 02:30:09,240
Speaker 3: get in as soon as you meet.

3065
02:30:09,080 --> 02:30:13,039
Speaker 2: The merge point. And that is that's bad for everybody, jeff.

3066
02:30:13,440 --> 02:30:16,160
Speaker 3: It clogs it up. And here's what you have to do,

3067
02:30:16,280 --> 02:30:19,200
Speaker 3: as someone who does this a lot. You got to

3068
02:30:19,240 --> 02:30:20,880
Speaker 3: go pick your spot, but you got to see it

3069
02:30:21,080 --> 02:30:23,400
Speaker 3: four hundred yards like you got to pick your line.

3070
02:30:23,520 --> 02:30:26,280
Speaker 3: You got to see an SDS truck, four pit truck

3071
02:30:26,760 --> 02:30:28,720
Speaker 3: something like that that you need to get out of

3072
02:30:28,959 --> 02:30:31,160
Speaker 3: neutral into first gear and takes them a little bit.

3073
02:30:31,400 --> 02:30:35,200
Speaker 3: Or or you find a Toyota, Yaris or a Prius

3074
02:30:35,280 --> 02:30:37,240
Speaker 3: and you say, there's my bitch, yeah, and you go

3075
02:30:37,800 --> 02:30:40,320
Speaker 3: right in front of them. And that's just what you do, yes,

3076
02:30:40,400 --> 02:30:42,520
Speaker 3: because they don't have the they don't have the zero

3077
02:30:42,600 --> 02:30:43,320
Speaker 3: to sixty on those.

3078
02:30:43,360 --> 02:30:43,480
Speaker 8: Now.

3079
02:30:43,600 --> 02:30:46,000
Speaker 3: The nice thing about that merge point, though, is even

3080
02:30:46,080 --> 02:30:47,720
Speaker 3: if you are screwed, it just takes you to the

3081
02:30:47,760 --> 02:30:49,400
Speaker 3: west end. So it's not like you have to go

3082
02:30:49,560 --> 02:30:51,360
Speaker 3: like one hundred and forty miles out of your way.

3083
02:30:51,440 --> 02:30:53,600
Speaker 3: It's it's a detour, but it you know, even if

3084
02:30:53,640 --> 02:30:55,640
Speaker 3: you have to hit the eject button, you can still

3085
02:30:55,720 --> 02:31:01,240
Speaker 3: get downtown or go to them Standbridge. Yeah, that's what

3086
02:31:01,240 --> 02:31:04,720
Speaker 3: I'm saying. I was thinking, Okay, the first turn off

3087
02:31:04,800 --> 02:31:06,920
Speaker 3: which takes you fifty one saw mel Um, Yeah, you

3088
02:31:07,000 --> 02:31:07,680
Speaker 3: go Union out.

3089
02:31:07,720 --> 02:31:09,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, either one of those.

3090
02:31:10,360 --> 02:31:13,680
Speaker 3: There's recovery, but there's a lot of I'm telling you

3091
02:31:13,760 --> 02:31:16,640
Speaker 3: from the draft, you're gonna have out of town drivers

3092
02:31:16,959 --> 02:31:19,760
Speaker 3: doing some of what I think are the most difficult

3093
02:31:21,440 --> 02:31:25,160
Speaker 3: pit stop maneuvering traffic situations that you're gonna have. It

3094
02:31:25,320 --> 02:31:28,360
Speaker 3: is going to be you better get the cones back

3095
02:31:28,400 --> 02:31:30,240
Speaker 3: out on the road because there's gonna be some fender

3096
02:31:30,280 --> 02:31:32,560
Speaker 3: benders from people from Tennessee that didn't know that a

3097
02:31:32,640 --> 02:31:34,840
Speaker 3: tunnel turns into a one way street turns into.

3098
02:31:34,680 --> 02:31:36,920
Speaker 2: A cul de sac. Well, I was talking about yesterday.

3099
02:31:36,959 --> 02:31:39,000
Speaker 3: My ways app on Easter morning, I drove up to

3100
02:31:39,040 --> 02:31:41,680
Speaker 3: Eerie to spend the day with my mom and coming

3101
02:31:41,720 --> 02:31:43,440
Speaker 3: out of the four pit tunnel and there's no traffic

3102
02:31:43,520 --> 02:31:45,959
Speaker 3: at that time when I was leaving it, it did

3103
02:31:46,080 --> 02:31:48,480
Speaker 3: not know what to do with all of the options,

3104
02:31:48,640 --> 02:31:51,560
Speaker 3: Like the voice on it immediately started like breathing into

3105
02:31:51,600 --> 02:31:55,560
Speaker 3: a paper bag, and then the Matthew McConaughey meme from

3106
02:31:55,640 --> 02:31:58,840
Speaker 3: True Detective of him smoking all nervous like on the

3107
02:31:58,959 --> 02:32:01,920
Speaker 3: screen because like there's two lefts, there's two straights, and

3108
02:32:01,959 --> 02:32:03,440
Speaker 3: there's two rights, but I don't know what it's one

3109
02:32:03,520 --> 02:32:06,120
Speaker 3: unique because each one of those has a different offshoot.

3110
02:32:06,240 --> 02:32:08,040
Speaker 3: And give me a second to figure this out, would

3111
02:32:08,080 --> 02:32:10,800
Speaker 3: you now that's a computer dude? Yeah, exactly, Like what

3112
02:32:11,000 --> 02:32:14,359
Speaker 3: kind of non Newtonian physics do you need to navigate?

3113
02:32:14,600 --> 02:32:16,879
Speaker 2: Like the forty first Street bridge pull off.

3114
02:32:16,840 --> 02:32:18,400
Speaker 3: When you get off of the left and then turn

3115
02:32:18,480 --> 02:32:20,280
Speaker 3: to the right, you gotta go overwatch his land. It's

3116
02:32:20,320 --> 02:32:24,280
Speaker 3: a nightmare, nightmare, thirty first and fortieth oh thirty four. Yeah, yeah,

3117
02:32:24,320 --> 02:32:24,640
Speaker 3: that's true.

3118
02:32:24,720 --> 02:32:26,080
Speaker 2: That's all right, And I can flame them all the time.

3119
02:32:26,480 --> 02:32:28,360
Speaker 3: There's nothing worse than picking the wrong bridge when you

3120
02:32:28,440 --> 02:32:31,280
Speaker 3: need to get over there, because sometimes that's thirty first

3121
02:32:31,280 --> 02:32:31,720
Speaker 3: Street bridge.

3122
02:32:31,720 --> 02:32:33,360
Speaker 2: You think it's going to be so much easier, but again,

3123
02:32:33,440 --> 02:32:35,760
Speaker 2: if you're going in between those two, it's it could

3124
02:32:35,760 --> 02:32:36,240
Speaker 2: be a tough call.

3125
02:32:36,320 --> 02:32:38,040
Speaker 3: The nice thing with Pittsburgh, though, is if you miss

3126
02:32:38,080 --> 02:32:40,320
Speaker 3: one bridge that there's another one that's true.

3127
02:32:40,440 --> 02:32:42,119
Speaker 2: It's literally right down the street. And if you missed
