00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 1: WDV Pittsburgh, an I Heart radio station, guaranteed Human.

2
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 2: It's the DV Morning Show, Ladies and gentlemen, Randy, but

3
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 2: I'm going alone with Abby Christner ted whistles with us.

4
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 2: Mike pursued it and on the line from the Football

5
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: America Podcast, brought to you by the Gateway Clipper.

6
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 3: It's Dave Damashek. Ladies and gentlemen, Randy.

7
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 4: I don't want to get all formal with you or

8
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 4: anything here out of the gate and I don't want

9
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 4: you to treat me any differently, but please, going forward

10
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 4: and forever, I am no longer Dave Danishek. I am

11
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 4: now national champion Dave Damnishek.

12
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 3: Thank you, all right. I will keep that in mind now, Dave.

13
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: In an effort to create some sort of framework for

14
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: this segment, we are now calling this six at six

15
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,639
Speaker 2: from Sheck in the six o'clock hour, starting things off

16
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 2: with six topics from Dave Danasheck.

17
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:10,279
Speaker 3: You will be timed. You will have a TikTok sound effect.

18
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,039
Speaker 2: We'll let you know when there's ten seconds left, and

19
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 2: then you will get Gateway Clipper horned off for the

20
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: next time.

21
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 4: All right, fine, I mean I don't know why you're

22
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 4: trying to cage this bird, but so be it.

23
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 3: Here we go.

24
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: At number one the Steelers' locker room, Dave wants Aaron

25
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: Rodgers to return as quarterback.

26
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 3: They said, as much, what say you, sir?

27
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 4: Do these guys think they are? Are they not aware

28
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 4: of their history? They haven't won a playoff game. I

29
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 4: don't know if they if they caught wind them all

30
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 4: that as Mike Tomlin walked out the door. They're in

31
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 4: no position to be talking about what they want. Who

32
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 4: gives a crap to quote somebody else? Shut up and

33
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 4: tackle you. Guys have led this team and it's the

34
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 4: leadership group. By the way, the leadership group was a

35
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 4: part of chasing Russell Wilson on purpose a couple of

36
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 4: years ago, and now they want Russell. Now they want

37
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers back. They are going to be very embarrassed

38
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,119
Speaker 4: if they happen to stumble across any of the game

39
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 4: film from the Houston Texans game when he looked every

40
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 4: bit of forty two years old. He doesn't want people

41
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,399
Speaker 4: hitting him. Is that going to change when he gets

42
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 4: to be forty three? By the way, go through all

43
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 4: of the twenty twenty five season. As I told you

44
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 4: before it kicked off, Aaron Rodgers is just fine if

45
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 4: he has time, if you heat him up, which some

46
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 4: pro football teams aren't just capable of doing. It's what

47
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 4: they want to do. They want to sack the quarterback

48
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 4: and hit him. If you've noticed, the teams that do

49
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 4: that successfully make Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers offense unsuccessful.

50
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 4: What are we even talking about here? Run it back,

51
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 4: run back? What that c minus?

52
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you're not a big fan of that.

53
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 3: That is for sure.

54
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 2: Mike is selling the combo McCarthy Rogers and getting the

55
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: band back together.

56
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 5: What would be good about that?

57
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 4: Why would that be the hirable spot that landed in

58
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 4: the Year of the Lord twenty twenty six? My goodness, Well,

59
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 4: they won a Super Bowl together sixteen years ago.

60
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 6: It intrigues me potentially because you get a coach that

61
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 6: you know knows how to coach, as opposed to a

62
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 6: guy you're guessing knows how to be a head coach,

63
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 6: and you get by far your best quarterback option for

64
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 6: twenty twenty six back in the fold.

65
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 4: It's fine with me, except for the fact that it

66
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 4: seems clear that R two has prioritized on some level

67
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 4: the idea of the remarkable Steelers head coaching streak. I

68
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 4: don't know if you heard three coaches since nineteen sixty nine,

69
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 4: and he wants to maintain that. So obviously, if you

70
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 4: go with Mike McCarthy, you are with purpose disrupting that.

71
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: I get the idea of stability, but what are we

72
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 4: stabilizing mediocrity essentially a tick above mediocrity in the hierarchy

73
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 4: of the AFC status quo for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I

74
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 4: understand first place sounds good, but I think anybody who

75
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 4: was thinking rationally in the moment, everybody got swept up

76
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 4: after the Ravens, after the Tyler Luke kick and all

77
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 4: of that, and oh my god, it got John Harbaugh,

78
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 4: whose job in reveling and all of that. People got

79
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 4: insured from reality.

80
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 2: Number two six verst at six for sheck number two.

81
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 2: Did Bill's onner Terry Pagoula's Bizarro press conference on Wednesday

82
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 2: make the Steelers a more attractive job than Buffalo with

83
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 2: Josh Allen.

84
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the thing people keep ignoring about this with

85
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 4: all the national talking heads weighing in on how the

86
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:52,160
Speaker 4: Steelers gig is undesirable compared to the Atlanta Falcons and otherwise,

87
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 4: I mean, yes, as I just touched on, and maybe

88
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 4: R two is ready to move off of that. But

89
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 4: is there a gig in sports that is more stable

90
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 4: in the volatile world of coaching? And you get fired

91
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 4: if you have a bad season in a lot of places,

92
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 4: if not most places. What you seek above all else

93
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 4: is the idea that you're going to have a job

94
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 4: next year, in five years from now, buying a house

95
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 4: and raising your children and all of that. That's the

96
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 4: virtue of being the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

97
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 4: And so yeah, I mean you get to work with

98
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 4: Josh Allen, who, by the way, as we've talked about,

99
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 4: is likely now not maybe likely to not ever get

100
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: a Lombardi Trophy. And that is the same for Lamar

101
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 4: Jackson and Joe Burrow and a number of other high

102
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 4: end quarterbacks who may wind up with a gold jacket

103
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 4: on their back, but never a Lombardi in their hands.

104
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 3: It's interesting.

105
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 2: I'm surprised they got Rhydy McDermott also as a result

106
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 2: of the owner basically saying it was the rest fault

107
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 2: we lost.

108
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 3: Well, then why'd you fire your coach because he lost

109
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 3: the game.

110
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 4: Well, it's ridiculous, But I also think the definition of

111
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 4: insanity and all of that. I mean, what are you

112
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 4: going to do? I mean, the guys your all time

113
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 4: I mean, I think the thing with Josh Allen and

114
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 4: maybe Lamar Jackson two and he could have really had

115
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 4: three MVP's Lamar, if they would, I think they properly

116
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 4: should have given last year's MVP the Lamar, which make

117
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 4: it three, and Josh Allen wouldn't have either. But both

118
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 4: of those guys, I think we all in this conversation

119
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 4: care about our Super Bowl era history. I mean, are

120
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 4: those two guys firmly in the top ten of all

121
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 4: time super Bowl era quarterbacks? I think he can make

122
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 4: a decent case for one or both of them, and

123
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 4: neither one has ever been to a Super Bowl. I mean,

124
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,919
Speaker 4: you have to change this. You're going to just stick

125
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 4: with it and assume that the William and Mary defensive

126
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 4: minded coach is finally going to catch up with the

127
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 4: times and start playing modern football. I think it makes sense.

128
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 4: It's scary to go out into the abyss, but it's

129
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 4: the right thing to do for Josh Allen and for

130
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 4: the rest of the team, even if they don't necessarily

131
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 4: understand why it makes sense to move on and try

132
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 4: something else.

133
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 2: At this point, realistically, is there any way Denver can

134
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 2: beat the Patriots with Jared Stidham at quarterback?

135
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 4: Dave, here's the thing with this, and I think we

136
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 4: really need to look in our souls. Everybody, take a

137
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 4: moment and look at the look at the man looking

138
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 4: back at you in the mirror before this game kicks off. Yes,

139
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 4: if you're if you're on the banks of the Three

140
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 4: Rivers and you've been paying attention to pro football, rooting

141
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 4: for black and gold, and keeping an eye on the

142
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 4: NFL at large these this last quarter century, you probably

143
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 4: have some raw feelings about the New England Patriots.

144
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 5: You know, I was there.

145
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 4: I heard Cheryl Crow come out at halftime.

146
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 5: How you doing, Pittsburgh that get off the stage?

147
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 4: You'll bat read the room?

148
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 3: You all bet? Yeah, it was like twenty nine when

149
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 3: that game happened.

150
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 4: Feelings, my feelings are still free, Okay, I was down

151
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 4: in the dumps. I remember after the game, listening.

152
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 3: To the radio on the way home.

153
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 4: Stevie probably and definitely, and then Cordell was getting interviewed

154
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 4: and they were like, are you are you disappointed with

155
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 4: the way the season ended here, Cordell and he said, no,

156
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 4: not at all, No, not at all. Well, guess what, Cordell,

157
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 4: sixty five thousand people are disappointed. This had happened, and

158
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 4: you had a lot to do with it. Sail on

159
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 4: those passes in the second quarter, and what.

160
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 5: Was the listen, I don't want to get big. Don't

161
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 5: do that to me. I'm National champion day damage.

162
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 4: I'm not here to talk about past disappointments, but really

163
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 4: consider it would be fun to see the Patriots lose

164
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 4: and not get to the Super Bowl because all the

165
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 4: Boston sports fans are puffing their chest out again Bill

166
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 4: Simmons and all the other guys out here.

167
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 5: Oh, we did it.

168
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 4: We made it through the miserable walk through the quarterbackless

169
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 4: desert for two and a half years, and now we've

170
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 4: reached it on the other side clean. I don't want

171
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 4: them to be happy, but I want to be happy

172
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 4: myself too. On Super Bowl Sunday and Stidham either either

173
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 4: a survivor of the NFC title game would be a

174
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 4: real stinker. So we have the things for our future selves.

175
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 4: What makes for the better game, Drake may be Stafford

176
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 4: or Darnold is a superior super Bowl. And the other

177
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 4: thing I'll throw into is it's funny. The Patriots have

178
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 4: caused us a lot of pain and the Flyers have

179
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 4: cost Penguins fans a lot of pain. But the Islanders

180
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 4: have caused more pain. But we hate the Flyers more

181
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 4: than we hate the Islanders. The Patriots are awful and

182
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 4: everything else, but the Bronco you could make a case,

183
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 4: have caused the most pain for the Steelers fans since

184
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 4: roughly about nineteen seventy eight.

185
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 3: Say the A two thousand and nine AFC Championship.

186
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 4: Well, we gave it back to him. Yes we have

187
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 4: beat them too, but I mean, I don't know that

188
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 4: there are many losses, if any really. I mean, those

189
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 4: two title game losses to the Patriots and hints Field

190
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 4: were miserable, But I mean that Broncos lost man to Lway.

191
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,839
Speaker 4: When Cordell again through the interception in the third quarter

192
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 4: in the end zone and Romanowski came over to him.

193
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 3: He just was excited.

194
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 4: Romanowski. There was nothing in his body that would have

195
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 4: made him to get extra crazy. But either that game

196
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 4: was bad and then twenty fifteen a decade ago. I

197
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 4: mean that one still kind of bugs me. I don't

198
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:41,959
Speaker 4: know what happens on the other.

199
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 3: Side of it.

200
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 4: If the Steelers would have plausibly been in it, but

201
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 4: Antonio Brown gets knocked out at the end the funniest

202
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 4: football game of all time the seal if BoNT has

203
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 4: perfect running off the field's finger wagon and all of that,

204
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 4: and then ninety seconds later Chris Boswell and the Bengals

205
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 4: season hysterics up.

206
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 3: Do you not hear the horne? Are you not hearing

207
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 3: the horn that?

208
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 4: I don't hear the horn now? I don't hear your horn,

209
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 4: and I'm above the lawn anyway. I don't know if

210
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 4: you heard. I'm a national champion now, Randy Bowman, I

211
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,239
Speaker 4: don't want to play the I don't dance for your horn.

212
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 3: At number five or four.

213
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 2: Rather, who would be the worst hire of all these

214
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 2: coaching candidates for the Steelers.

215
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 4: I mean, Mike McCarthy would be up there, makes it

216
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 4: really would be so uninspired to do that. But the

217
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 4: one that would be the funniest would be just for

218
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 4: the reaction, would would have been Mike McDaniel. I mean,

219
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 4: what with that guy if he got hired? Who I

220
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 4: happened to think is in fact the real deal, and

221
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 4: things just got weirdly sideways for him down with the Dolphins,

222
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 4: but people kind of ignored that. He did keep that

223
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 4: team relevant well past the the date that people said, oh,

224
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 4: he's got to be fired, he's out, he's he's dead

225
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 4: man walking, and then they kind of rallied and got

226
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 4: back into the thing.

227
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 2: I mean, he was like universally well regarded in that

228
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 2: in the front office and among the players. It was

229
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 2: his interactions with the press that drove everybody crazy because

230
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 2: he would come off like just such a loof stoner

231
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 2: every time.

232
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 5: Right, that's exactly right. He right.

233
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 4: It was the way he comported himself. And if you

234
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 4: drop that into Pittsburgh, I think it would be hysterical.

235
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 4: But I refer you to one Dan Muse. Look at

236
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 4: Dan Muse. How you feel about him Pittsburgh. He seemed

237
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 4: like a dork when he walked in the door. Right,

238
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 4: certainly not as rugged, didn't cut a rugged, intimidating figure

239
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 4: like Mike Sullivan. But I think everybody's okay with that. Now,

240
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 4: give that as it's not gonna happen. But boy, would

241
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 4: that be a hysterical offseason if Mike McDaniel was the

242
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 4: new face of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

243
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think that. Yeah, I don't think it

244
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 2: would go over well, there would be tables flipping over.

245
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 5: Everybody.

246
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 4: If anybody has seen a picture of Chris Julie, you're

247
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 4: like Dave, that Dave looks like he should catch the

248
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 4: experts Steelers. They look at his notes already got broke,

249
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 4: you know, Yeah, it's going to be that. I wouldn't

250
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 4: be surprised pursued to I say, Chris ula and they

251
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 4: bring sheel Hass with him out from l A. After

252
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 4: this weekend, we will get the announcement.

253
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 3: How say you so to intriguing Daily double? Is he

254
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 3: too short to be a head coach? Who's the shortest

255
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 3: best NFL head coach ever?

256
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 4: He's certainly I mean he looks tough, but he is not.

257
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 4: He's not sufficiently handsome for today's NFL coaches. I don't

258
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 4: know if you've taken a look around the boys real

259
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 4: eye candy out there.

260
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 6: Do they say that coaching genius skips a generation?

261
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 4: Well, it's good thing, because yeah, that would be idea right.

262
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, because then that would check another box for the

263
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 6: grandson as opposed to the father and the ocal and

264
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 6: the dad was well, the.

265
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 4: Complete the Pittsburgh, the Miami to Pittsburgh circle. Let's not

266
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 4: forget that that Don Shula did hind a sword of

267
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 4: people don't like to talk about this in NFL circles

268
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 4: because you're supposed to genuflected Don Shula, but he did

269
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 4: waste Dan marinos prime. He is the number one guy

270
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 4: who is culpable for why Dan Marino never won Super Bowl,

271
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 4: more so than Dan Marino or anyone else.

272
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: He also, okay, I hear the clock. He also recommended

273
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 2: Chuck Knowle to the Pittsburgh Steelers. All Right, was your

274
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 2: boy Mendoza's performance in the postseason there in the College

275
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 2: Football National champion Chip the most clutch performance from a

276
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 2: Heisman winner in the Natty.

277
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 4: Boy, that's a great question that I hadn't considered clutch.

278
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 4: I'll tell you this, man. He there was talk I

279
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 4: was in Miami this week around the National Championship, and

280
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 4: everybody down there, understandably is more cane centric, and they

281
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 4: were talking about how Carson Beck looked like he got

282
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 4: concussed just before he threw the interception. And my response

283
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 4: to that is and was, maybe but also did you

284
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 4: see Fernando just getting the crap kicked out of him?

285
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 4: From the first drive on. They were intent. You could

286
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 4: see that Chrystal Ball or whoever else got in their

287
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 4: ear and said, really, put some hits on this guy early.

288
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 5: Let's see if we.

289
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 4: Can disrupt him. I mean the one kid put his

290
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 4: helmet under the chin of Fernando several seconds after Fernando

291
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 4: had the ball out of his hands, give him a

292
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 4: bloody mouth. I mean, they just beat him up all

293
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 4: game long, including on the iconic run. Answer I guess

294
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 4: is yes, that he steps to the line. That they

295
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 4: went for it on fourth and five with all the

296
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 4: pressure in the world on them. They were supposed to

297
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 4: win this game. They had it in hand a couple

298
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 4: of times it felt over, and yet they still needed

299
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 4: to convert not one, but two fourth and five. I

300
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 4: didn't even understand the wisdom necessarily of going for it

301
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 4: on fourth and five in that spot. But obviously I'm

302
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 4: glad they did make. A Look at this, this is

303
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 4: not coach sig Love Coach sig doing it for on

304
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 4: behalf of Pittsburgh, PA and Bloomington, Indiana. But take a

305
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 4: look at that play when he runs it in as

306
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 4: he gets too roughly back to the line of scrimmage.

307
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 4: If he doesn't cut back across the middle, he gets

308
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 4: tackled there and it's Cane's ball, and instead he cuts

309
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 4: it back and then on top of it the cherry.

310
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 4: On top of that is he survives a big hit

311
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 4: and runs it into the end zone. So I guess

312
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 4: the answer is, yes, I'm over the movement. I'm right

313
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 4: over the mo.

314
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 2: I mean statistically, DeVante Adams, DeVante Smith's rather and.

315
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow, you know, were lights out.

343
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 8: So much of the country is also going to be

344
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 8: dealing with cold temperatures this weekend.

345
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 3: Every winter, the same debate pops up.

346
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 8: So National Champion Dave danishek, what is the perfect thermostat temperature?

347

Speaker 4: Have to set it and it stays there three sixty five?

349
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 3: Yes, that's what she's saying.

350
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm going to try to weigh the factors here

351
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 4: and tap into what it's like when it's when it's

352
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 4: late January in Pittsburgh or Chicago or Bloomington, Indiana. Home

355
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 4: I like the and maybe it makes me a weird,

356
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 4: weirdly nostalgic guy. I love what it's cold because it

357
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 4: reminds me of winters in Pittsburgh growing up. And I

358
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 4: love the idea of it being a little bit too

359
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 4: chilly for my wife and other normal people. I like

360
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 4: having to put a sweatshirt on at home. I like

361
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 4: having to put on the woolen socks a little bit

362
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 4: because it's January to sit down and watch football all day.

363
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,719
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go sixty nine degrees. Nice.

389
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 2: Just now brought to you by yinglink PFT. What was

390
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: the deal with NBC and Michael Jordan where you got

391
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 2: paid like eighty million dollars and only had to do

392
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 2: one interview? How did he weasel out of not providing

393
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 2: more content.

394
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 5: I'm not sure what it was. I think he was

395
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 5: just negotiating from a position of strength where he doesn't

396
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 5: talk to anybody in the media, and so Mike Trico

397
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 5: was like, how about I do a canned ninety minute

398
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 5: sit down with you and we'll roll it out five

399
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,679
Speaker 5: minutes by five minutes as the season goes on, and

400
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 5: we'll call that a day. Huh. I don't know exactly

401
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 5: what the what the obligations were up front, but it

402
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 5: seems like that's that's really all he's done so far.

403
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,679
Speaker 5: Maybe they're going to bring it back later on the

404
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 5: season and get him on a panel. I thought that

405
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 5: he was going to be like NBC's gambling Correspondent's that

406
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 5: you who better to do it? Yeah, Jordan's picks of

407
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 5: the Day. Yeah, I would love to see that, but

408
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 5: it seems like it's a big waste of money. If

409
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 5: we totally honest.

410
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 3: It wasn't eighty. Yeah, it wasn't eighty.

411
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 2: That was like a widely circulated, you know, parody account apparently,

412
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 2: but it was somewhere north of twenty.

413
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 5: I think Jordan's done a great job of making himself

414
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 5: scarce enough where now people will overpay like that just

415
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 5: to have, you know, his presence on their screen for

416
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 5: any period of time, just so they can say we've

417
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 5: got Michael Jordan. Nobody else was able to get him,

418
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 5: and we finally close the deal. I feel like that

419
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 5: since he doesn't talk to anyone, it seems like it's

420
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 5: a it's a great place for him to be, but

421
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 5: I don't understand the whole premise behind having him on

422
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 5: that pregame show or on the the NBA on NBC.

423
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 5: If they're not going to be talking about anything that's

424
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 5: currently happening in the NBA. It's just like, Okay, let's

425
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 5: flash back to this interview with Michael Jordan where we

426
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 5: talked to him about his life and like we already

427
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 5: saw the last dance, like we got a good plumpch

428
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,479
Speaker 5: into his life with that. I would like to hear

429
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 5: Michael George's roasting the youngsters in the NBA, Like I

430
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 5: want to hear Michael Jordan talk about Trey Young. I

431
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 5: want to hear him talk about you know, John Moran.

432
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 5: I want to hear him just like take that Charles

433
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 5: Barkley route where he's not afraid to go in on people.

434
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,679
Speaker 5: But since Michael Jordan is like so mean and so competitive,

435
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 5: I want to I want to hear him take that

436
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,239
Speaker 5: to the next level. And we're I don't think we're

437
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 5: going to get that.

438
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 2: Well if you're going to pay him that much and

439
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 2: it's only going to be about things that happened in

440
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 2: the past, I want him to at least explain what

441
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 2: he was thinking with the Hitler mustache.

442
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, Yes, in the Haines commercial. Yeah that would

443
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 5: be Uh had.

444
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 3: A Hitler mustache in the Haines chaplain.

445
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 5: And no one talked about it, which is crazy. It's

446
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 5: like we'll overlook anything that Michael Jordan does because he means.

447
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 5: He means so much to like popular culture in America.

448
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 5: But yeah, I want to see him on the panel.

449
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 5: I want to see Michael Jordan talking about the NBA

450
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 5: and talking about sports that are happening right now. I

451
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 5: don't want to see just like an interview with Michael

452
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 5: Jordan about what he does on a day to day basis.

453
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 5: I thought that if you if you get Michael Jordans

454
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 5: to sit down and watch enough modern day NBA and

455
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 5: force him to commentate on it as much as possible,

456
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 5: eventually you're gonna get him trying to come back into

457
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 5: the NBA because he's gonna get get angry state of

458
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 5: the league that he's gonna be like, you know what,

459
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,159
Speaker 5: get my shorts out. We're gonna we're gonna run this

460
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 5: back one more time.

461
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 3: Dick Cheney. Yeah, you know, I'm gonna be the vice president.

462
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 2: So Indiana winning the national championship the other night, I

463
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 2: know your JM you alum, it does does it feel

464
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 2: like with Kurt Signetti and a staff of people and

465
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 2: some players from James Madison, does it feel like the

466
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 2: Hoosiers are guilty of stolen valor from James Madison.

467
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 5: No, listen, I'll be I'll be completely honest with this.

468
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 5: It's anything I'm going to steal some valor from Indiana's

469
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,920
Speaker 5: national championship because we were missing a giant piece of

470
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 5: Jamie and that was Fernando Mendoza, who is the best

471
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 5: college football player in America. But it was it was

472
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 5: very cool watching that game, not just for the story

473
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 5: of Indiana, but if you watch after the game, in

474
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,400
Speaker 5: the postgame ceremony, they're all gathered around the trophy and

475
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 5: when it's time to put their hands on the trophy

476
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 5: for the first time and they lifted up in the air.

477
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 5: There's five guys that are standing around that trophy up front.

478
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 5: And it wasn't Mendoza that was up there. It was

479
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 5: Signetti and the five starters from James Madison University that

480
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 5: transferred with him and went to India. Those were the

481
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 5: first five guys right up front that all listed it

482
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,719
Speaker 5: up together, and that's a very cool story for them.

483
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,959
Speaker 5: They followed Signetti to JMU. They got to know him,

484
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 5: got to play for him, believed in him enough that

485
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 5: when he left, they're like, yeah, let's do it. Let's

486
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 5: just keep the same core together, go to Indiana and

487
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 5: see what we could do there. And then they became

488
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,120
Speaker 5: the most dominant team in modern college football history. From

489
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 5: a record standboy, I still think that that twenty nineteen

490
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 5: LSU team would probably beat him by ten, ten to

491
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 5: fifteen points, but they were dominant this year. They were

492
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 5: sixteen and zero and that that was very cool to see.

493
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 5: And in the national championship game, you had guys all

494
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 5: over the field from JMU that were making these plays

495
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 5: like the block punt by Kamara. He went to JMU.

496
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 5: He was I think a zero star recruit that followed

497
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 5: Signetti across the country and he made what could could

498
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 5: have been the game altering play in that game. But

499
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 5: I also, I was joking a big cat about this yesterday.

500
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 5: I think a lot of people would expect me to

501
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 5: try to claim like a share of the national championship

502
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 5: of this, but I and I've thought about doing that,

503
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 5: but also in the back of my head, I think

504
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 5: to myself, like, how did this team possibly lose to

505
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 5: app State at home? Like this national champion Indiana team,

506
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 5: the one blemish on that record back in twenty twenty

507
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 5: three was they got beat by Appalachian State at home

508
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 5: at the only game that I attended watch. And so

509
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 5: it's like I'm such a personal loser that I'm the

510
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 5: only one that can make this this incredible juggernaut Indiana

511
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 5: squad lose to a to a what is it amounts

512
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 5: to an FCS team? Well with app State.

513
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 2: They did it to Michigan before too though, I mean

514
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 2: App State. That's the only thing they do is they

515
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,959
Speaker 2: pull out that occasional crazy upset.

516
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 5: That's very true. They know app States a good team.

517
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 5: I just you know there as a rival, They're probably

518
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 5: I would say it or Jamie's number one rival. So

519
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 5: I got to take a shot at them when I can.

520
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 5: But then they will always have that over me, is

521
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 5: that they took away that perfect season with a team

522
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 5: that you know, the core of it would go on

523
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 5: to win a national championship. It's an awesome story and

524
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 5: it was also really it felt really strange because Indiana,

525
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 5: in the big picture, is the biggest underdog in the

526
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 5: history of college football. The fact that they were able

527
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,920
Speaker 5: to do this is incredible. But in that game last night,

528
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 5: it was like Miami was the underdog that nobody expected

529
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 5: anything out of, Like the University of Miami with Michael

530
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 5: Irvin and ray Lewis and Ed Reid on the sideline

531
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 5: just sweating buckets. Those guys were the ones that were

532
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 5: like the underdog that, Oh man, I wonder if this feisty,

533
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 5: little no name school from southern Florida can take out

534
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 5: the big, bad juggernauts of college football in Indiana. So

535
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,120
Speaker 5: that was kind of like a weird dynamic that we had.

536
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 5: But I mean, it's such a great story. I could

537
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 5: be cynical when it comes to sports, especially with college

538
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 5: football the way that it's still one for the last

539
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 5: five years. It has its fair share of problems, but

540
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,719
Speaker 5: this is such a cool story that Indiana did it.

541
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 5: But it's also like the meanest thing ever that's happened

542
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 5: in college football because now every single school in America

543
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 5: is singing to themselves, oh, we could win a national championship.

544
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 5: So it's going to give so many people hope that

545
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 5: they can do it, but I think that there's only

546
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 5: one Kurt Signetti and everyone's going to try to find

547
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 5: the next one. And that's probably going to add up

548
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 5: to people just hiring Jamius coaches after they have two

549
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 5: good years with us, and then they'll leave like Bob Chesney.

550
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 5: And it's going to be a cycle for me where

551
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 5: I'm just gonna have to keep, you know what, America,

552
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 5: I'll keep finding your Kurt Signetti's for you and if

553
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 5: you need one, if you want to go shopping, just

554
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 5: consider me the Kurt Signetti Store. So just come take

555
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 5: my coaches whenever you want, and best of luck.

556
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 3: I just feel bad for Michael Irvin.

557
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 2: It's it's just no fun to do cocaine when you're sad,

558
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 2: you know, all right, So let me switch.

559
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 3: To the pros. I do want to ask you about

560
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 3: this weekend.

561
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 2: The script writers have done it again and bow Nicks

562
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 2: has a fake injury. As we all know in this place,

563
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 2: it's Jared Sidham at the Helm for Baltimore, thus granting

564
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 2: Robert Kraft, member of the Illuminati, access to the super

565
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,719
Speaker 2: Bowl once again. We all know this, and that's how

566
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 2: and why it happened, but I know that you're very

567
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 2: much in Ctiti's camp.

568
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 5: Well, I have to be. I have to this is

569
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 5: this is going to be a difficult maybe my most

570
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 5: difficult assignment yet, which is just gassing up Jared Sidham

571
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 5: for a week and falling into a trap where I

572
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 5: believe in city as they call him. Uh and I listen,

573
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 5: I am. I'm going to all the darkest, weirdest places

574
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 5: of the Internet trying to find any sort of fun

575
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 5: tidbit about Jared Sidham, any sort of reason to believe

576
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 5: in him. What I've uncovered so far as that he's

577
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 5: one of the best preseason quarterbacks of all time. Mister yeah,

578
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 5: mister Augus. There's a few guys out there that that

579
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 5: come to mind when you think of preseason quarterbacks, at

580
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 5: least for me personally. I remember Colt Brennan was, you know,

581
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 5: out of Hawaii. He was a guy that was like

582
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 5: preseason all start, maybe the next Brett far of the

583
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 5: w that he played the preseason. There's this Kyle Sloter

584
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 5: who played in Denver, played in Minnesota. I think by

585
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 5: the stats, he is the best preseason quarterback of all time.

586
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 5: Never got a shot to start. You root for these guys.

587
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 5: You just want to see him get a shot. Stidham

588
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 5: has had a lot of success in the preseason. I'm

589
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 5: hoping that translates to the AFC Championship game. That it

590
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 5: seems like it's a big jump. But there's really not

591
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 5: a lot that I'm working with with Jared said him

592
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 5: out there, so if anybody knows any sort of fun

593
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 5: fact about him. The one thing that I've seen that

594
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 5: I'm trying to get to the bottom of is back

595
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 5: in two thousand and sixteen twenty seventeen when he was

596
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 5: in college. For some reason, multiple fan bases had the

597
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 5: same parallel thought. I don't know if they were even related,

598
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 5: but I found multiple message board posts in twenty sixteen

599
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 5: in twenty seventeen speculating that Jared Sidham might have a tail,

600
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 5: and I need to know where. I need to know

601
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 5: where this came from, because it seems like the weirdest

602
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 5: possible thing for different people to come up with on

603
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 5: their own, Like does Jered send them have a tail?

604
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 5: And if so, is that just a mass? But then

605
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 5: it's like a pre inintile tail on an NFL quarterback.

606
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 5: I'm gonna do more work on it. Because again I'm just.

607
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 3: Of NFL conspiracies.

608
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 5: I'll take it. I'll take it whatever. It's better than

609
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 5: the Alex Jones. I'll see if I can look into

610
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 5: it a little bit more. But I have found three

611
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 5: separate incidents of SEC fan bases thinking that Jorge Sidham

612
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 5: might have a tail, So there's something to that. More

613
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 5: to come on that story.

614
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 2: I'm more I'm more likely to bet on him now

615
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 2: I didn't know he had the tail. I mean, that's

616
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 2: gotta gotta come in handy at some point you gotta

617
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 2: tail him.

618
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 5: You gotta tail the guy. And uh yeah, we'll see.

619
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 5: We'll see what happens with this as I look into

620
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 5: a little bit more. But it does seem like a

621
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 5: juicy little nugget there that I'm I'm gonna have to

622
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 5: do some some boots on the ground lake work for

623
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 5: I know that speaking of jam you've ben to Nucci

624
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 5: is now the backup quarterback in Denver. I might have

625
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 5: to reach out to him, get some information, you know,

626
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 5: inside the locker room, what's it looking.

627
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 3: Like in the shower?

628
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 5: Turns back to you. Yeah, he is he always keeping

629
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 5: a towel on? Is he trying to hide something?

630
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 7: Yeah?

631
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 5: So we'll see what happens with that. But I mean,

632
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 5: ultimately it's like, yeah, congrats to the New England Patriots.

633
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 5: You guys, you know, the schedule really broke your way

634
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 5: in every single way possible. I'm sure. I'm sure you'll

635
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 5: get to the super Bowl and you play against I

636
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 5: don't know, Jimmy Garoppolo or Stetson Bennett and the Los

637
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 5: Angeles Rams, and then you'll be world champions in New

638
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 5: England and lack like everything's back and perfect again and

639
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 5: everyone else is gonna be miserable. So I'm sure that's

640
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 5: that's what we'll see happen. So congratulations to them.

641
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 2: We're running very short on time, but I did want

642
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 2: to ask you about how funny you think it is

643
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 2: that McDaniel took the job with Harbaugh for the Chargers

644
00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 2: as his OC and now we have one of the

645
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 2: best meathead and dork combos in the NFL.

646
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 5: It's incredible, It is absolutely awesome. It's gonna be like

647
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 5: like Sean Salisbury and John Clayton going at it on

648
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 5: first and ten or six pack of cold Heart facts

649
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 5: from from the ESPN back in the day. I can't

650
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 5: I can't wait to see other shakes out because like

651
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 5: Harball is, You're right he is. He's a football psycho,

652
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 5: and I can't imagine them speaking the same language to you.

653
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 5: I think maybe he was just fascinated from from Mike

654
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 5: McDaniel from a like a like a nature standpoint, like

655
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 5: who is this man? But like I've never seen I've

656
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 5: never seen a human that's that operation uses these words.

657
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 5: I must. It's like keep your friends close, but your

658
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 5: enemy is closer. He's like, I don't like this guy,

659
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 5: but there's something about him that I need to keep

660
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 5: my eye on, so I'd like to have I'd like

661
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 5: to have him close. He might just need like a

662
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 5: a guy that he feels super comfortable yelling at all

663
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 5: the time, Like he might be the equivalent of, you know,

664
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 5: like a pillow that you punched in therapy and just

665
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 5: get your aggression out on it. So we'll see how

666
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 5: it goes on. I think McDaniel's a brilliant offensive mind,

667
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 5: and if he is able to show results, then the

668
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 5: hardball is just gonna be like I don't understand you,

669
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 5: but I love you. But I think I think it

670
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 5: could be very, very funny, and I hope they have

671
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 5: hard knocks next year.

Speaker 3: He's been here twenty years.

706
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 2: I refuse to believe he doesn't know how to speak

707
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:07,800
Speaker 2: English better than that. It's just a ruse to not

708

Speaker 2: have to talk to you guys.

709
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,640

711
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 6: right about now. Malkin a goal and an assist last night,

712
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 6: playing right wing with Thomas Novak and Igor Chinikoff. Chinnikoff

713
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 6: got another goal the Reclamation Project from Columbus.

714
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is I mean we were all clamoring for

715
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,760
Speaker 2: Novak and Chinnikoff to bring Malkin out of his punk.

716
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 6: I mean, he's got twelve goals, twenty seven assists, thirty

717
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 6: nine points in thirty five games, and he is plus fifteen.

718
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 2: Oh man, what was he this time last year? I

719
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:45,399
Speaker 2: under yeah a mess. Penz started fast last night.

720
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 6: Anthony Manta to twenty the first period, Mantha again at

721
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 6: two forty two of period beauty, and Sidney Crosby is

722
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 6: twenty seventh at two fifty seven. That's three goals in

723
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 6: thirty seven seconds. How you been Jars?

724
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 3: Oh my god, port Jarry is.

725
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 2: I mean that guy's got to be standing on a

726
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 2: bridge like somebody should keep an eye on him.

727
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,320
Speaker 3: The reader act from sid was sick. That was beautiful.

728
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 6: Pens improved to twenty five, fourteen and eleven sixty one

729
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 6: points that second in the Metropolitan Division. They are really

730
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 6: solidifying their playoff position and if getting walking. The emphasized

731
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 6: in the wick of that happening that he has no

732
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 6: desire for this current season to wind up being his last.

733
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 10: It's not easy, I mean, but again I try uh

734
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 10: dud my bads because I knew I won't play it

735
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,879
Speaker 10: like I want on my year. You know, I want

736
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 10: to show like I steal a good player. You know,

737
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 10: I want to see like I want to see everybody

738
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 10: see like, uh, I can't play next year? You know

739
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 10: it's uh, it's my vote right now.

740
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 3: It's his goal to play next year.

741
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 6: Yeah, contracts up, they get one more year. I tell

742
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 6: you what, if he's gonna play wing, it doesn't block

743
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,280
Speaker 6: young prospects at center. If he's gonna be plus fifteen

744
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 6: and evera's more than a point a game, yep, who's

745
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 6: to argue? I mean, maybe thirty nine is the new

746
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 6: twenty nine in the NHL that not Varon Rodgers could

747
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 6: do it at forty two.

748
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:14,879
Speaker 7: Why can't he do it at forty?

749
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 3: I mean, typically hockey is not as forgiving.

750
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 5: You know.

751
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 2: The quarterback position and being a kicker are the two

752
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:25,280
Speaker 2: things where I think you can kind of beat Father

753
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 2: time a little bit.

754
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 7: Some guys do it though.

755
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 6: You know, Chris Chelly has played in his forties, Gordy

756
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 6: how played into his fifties outlier obviously, But but just

757
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,479
Speaker 6: what the Pens have going on right now? That's three

758
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 6: for three on this three game road trip to Seattle, Calgary,

759
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 6: and Edmonton. It finishes in Vancouver on sun.

760
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 2: Joe Barnik will join us for soft dumps later this

761
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 2: morning from Boston. He's gonna call in and he was

762
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 2: saying before this, gotta get six points.

763
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 6: Well, there's just six points. And you know it's it.

764
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 6: It's legit. They're keeping the puck out of their neck.

765
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 6: They're playing well on special teams. They're playing with structure

766
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 6: and pace. News it doesn't look fluky, you know what

767

00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 6: had to say about the Steelers coaching search. I'm a

781
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,359
Speaker 6: great follower of Baldinger on Twitter. When he's breaking down

782
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 6: on line play, which is kind of his yes stuff.

783
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 6: He went on he works to the NFL network. He

784
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 6: went on a show called The Best Football Show and said, quote,

785
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 6: not out here trying to play reporter or doing any

786
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 6: of that nonsense. But I hear the Steelers are very

787
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 6: interested in Mario Cristi Ball, the coach at the University

788
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 6: of Miami. I think Mario Crystal Ball actually would really

789
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,840
Speaker 6: translate to the NFL. I watched his practices in the spring.

790
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 6: The way Mario coached that team reminded me of what

791
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 6: old school coaches used to do. Christ Ball also reportedly

792
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 6: grew up a Steelers fan. For what that is, Well,

793
