17
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 4: the point. You could see I was at the point.

18
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 4: I remember, I was the blast zone. I was down

19
00:00:58,360 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 4: there right.

20
00:00:59,680 --> 00:00:59,800

Speaker 4: I'm gonna be part of a class action lawsuit.

22
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 8: Were you at the Three Rivers implosion or stationed at

26
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 3: Thelioma is one of the great Pittsburgh words of all time.

27
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 4: Is that next to Verona?

28
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: Jeff Conklin studio with us. Right now, Abby Krisner has

29

00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 4: Can I ask you something?

34
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 9: No to you?

35
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: Is there a modern equivalent to the implosion? Have we

36
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 3: had anything that? Is that Pittsburgh and bizarre where the

37
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 3: whole town acted like a super Bowl was happening, and

38
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 3: we all got like when that bridge came down in Greenfield,

39
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 3: maybe maybe maybe the mister Rogers statue reveal might have

40
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 3: been in that there was a little little little bit

41
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: of hubb up, not quite as much as three rivers

42
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 3: or anything.

43
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what.

44
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 3: The duck, Oh, the duck, you're right sure caused a

45
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 3: big stir. Yeah, that Miking Bob made that happen. Basically

46
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 3: they saw the duck happen in another town and they

47
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 3: were like, we want the duck here.

48
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 4: I got to tell you that duck Day was one

49
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 4: of the best.

50
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 3: Like my wife and I actually went on it like

51
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 3: a full tilt walking date of Pittsburgh, like we went

52
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 3: to the Strip District and we walked around down like, yeah,

53
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 3: it was it was phenomenal. It's a great thing. And

54
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 3: see the Duck did that. It brought us, They brought

55
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 3: you together. The duck has that power, all right, Abby?

56
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 4: What's up?

57
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 2: Ratings are in for Super Bowl sixty. NBC announced that

58
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: Sunday's Super Bowl between the Patriots and Seahawks averaged just

59
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 2: under one hundred and twenty five million viewers, making it

60
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: the second most watched Super Bowl ever, only behind last year.

61
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 3: Okay, so the original numbers we heard were not as

62
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,399
Speaker 3: rosie great as they ended up being what I think

63
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty five million was the early estimate

64
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 3: I read after that report came out last night that

65
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 3: they like compiled all of the views from all of

66
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 3: the major streaming platforms and it's gone over four billion. Now,

67
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 3: I don't know how many people sat there and watched

68
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 3: it on a loop over and over again. And I

69
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 3: don't know how you can quantify the accuracy of that figure,

70
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 3: because it seems like you can bot anything these days.

71
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: But I have a hard time believing that more people

72
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: didn't watch that just out of curiosity than the Kendrick

73
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 3: Lamar won only.

74
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 4: Because it turned into such an event.

75
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: Prior to the Super Bowl Kendrick Lamar, there was some anticipation,

76
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: but it was unless you were in you had some

77
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 3: semblance of understanding what that dynamic was like. It wasn't

78
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: as clear as this time around, right, and this one

79
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 3: became completely a cultural event. My friend's daughter is nine,

80
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 3: and she had this insight. She was sitting there at

81
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 3: the super Bowl party with her arms crossed, looking bored

82
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 3: af and I go, I go Violet, like, I go,

83
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 3: don't you like the super Bowl?

84
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 4: And she goes no.

85
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 3: And I was like, well, I go, do people in

86
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 3: your school like the super Bowl? She goes, no, one

87
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 3: likes the super Bowl. I was like, well, it's the

88
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 3: most watched thing, like little Girl on Earth, and she

89
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 3: goes I said like something like you know, like like

90
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 3: I said, like, you know, one hundred million people watch

91
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 3: the super Bowl, and she goes, some of us are

92
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 3: being forced to. So I was like, that's smart because

93
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 3: there's probably at least six people here that don't would

94
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 3: rather be watching Bridgerton right now, Like they don't want

95
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 3: to be here.

96
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 4: We're being forced being forced to. That's good for you, Violet.

97
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 2: Bad Buddies halftime show did average just over one hundred

98
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: and twenty eight million viewers, which breaks NFL social media records.

99
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 9: But you were right on some of those numbers that

100
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 9: you said.

101
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 10: Randy.

102
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 2: NBC did set an all time record for peak viewership

103
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 2: with one hundred and thirty seven point eight million viewers

104
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 2: from seven to four five to eight pm on social media,

105
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 2: recording a total of four billion views in twenty four hours.

106
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 2: So when they kind of go through the numbers, yeah,

107
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: once you get repeat views and you get through everything.

108
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 3: Repeat views, Like I don't get who's repeat view in

109
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 3: the super Bowl?

110
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 4: Not the super Bowl, the halftimes? Oh oh oh got

111
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 4: you got?

112
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 11: You got? You got? Yah? Yeah?

113
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, that makes sense.

114
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: So that's more than double the total from last year's

115
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 2: show on that.

116
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 3: Right, which it's about eyes on it, I guess, and

117
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 3: I have nothing invested in the success or failure of it,

118
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 3: one way or another. It's just like the biggest dumbest

119
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 3: distraction ever. If you didn't like it, that's fine, and

120
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 3: if you liked it, that's fine too. Are you shocked

121
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 3: that they haven't shoehorned some serious product? I mean, if

122
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 3: that's getting four billion views? Aren't you surprised that? Like

123
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,119
Speaker 3: Bad Bunny isn't like answering a Nokia phone like during

124
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 3: his performance and then taking a swig of gatorade or

125
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 3: something like that. Like that's the one thing that's free

126
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 3: of product placement as far as I can tell, and

127
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 3: it's the thing that gets them those views. Well, they

128
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 3: don't pay the performers. Okay, you don't get paid. You

129
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 3: don't exposure so people know who bad money is.

130
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't. You don't get paid.

131
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 3: Oh, I guarantee you though that just the people swell

132
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 3: and streaming from that was worth it for him and

133
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 3: then but they don't pay the uh performers at all.

134
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 4: And I would imagine that you would be Now.

135
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: The endorsement would be tied in through the performer and

136
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 3: the network and the NFL, and that was probably a

137
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 3: few hoops to jump through in terms of representation on

138
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 3: that one. But it's already sponsor, right, isn't it like

139
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 3: the Nokia Pepsi.

140
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 4: Or something like every Yeah, that's true.

141
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 3: I liked when they would sponsor the gates at Hinzfield

142
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 3: and you like you going through that, we're going through

143
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 3: the high mark gate and we're going like, I don't

144
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 3: think they do that anymore. If they did, it always

145
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 3: felt like are you really getting a bang for your

146
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 3: buck on this one?

147
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 4: I always said that.

148
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 3: I was like, when you start seeing product placement that's

149
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: like egregious. You know, a company has totally run out

150
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 3: of quality product like the WWE. Now ever, since they

151
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 3: got bought by the same company that does TKO, they

152
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 3: can't figure out how to increase viewership, so they just

153
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 3: tried to increase ad revenue. So people are getting put

154
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 3: through tables, but instead they're getting put through the fireball

155
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 3: whiskey table, and they're jumping off the taxac dot com

156
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 3: ladder like it's it, and you're just like, you have

157
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 3: no ideas left. You're just trying to milk this so

158
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 3: that your your earnings per share goes up less.

159
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 4: Scent, you know.

160
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 3: And that being said, that jackass who jumped onto the

161
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 3: field and streaked and put his whatever his trading company

162
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 3: was on his back, like the sec or SEC should

163
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: step in, calm down hard completely, like revoke any license

164
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,239
Speaker 3: of associated with that, Like, oh, you think you're gonna

165
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 3: be able to just do this, No, this is the

166
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 3: problem with those polymarket things like if the odds are

167
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 3: will there be a streaker on the field, and you

168
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 3: bet you know one to one hundred thousand that there

169
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 3: isn't going to be and then you do it.

170
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 4: You get paid for that no happen.

171
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 3: That they will not pay you if you you perpetrate it, yes,

172
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 3: or orchestrate the perpetration of it. Well, the one guy

173
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 3: we were talking about it yesterday who was like a

174
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 3: part of Drake's entarage or in his camp, was tipped

175
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 3: off that Cardi B was not going to perform, and

176
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 3: so he bet like six figures she won't perform at

177
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 3: halftime and then she didn't sing, and he was like, ah,

178
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 3: you know, I hit for one hundred and fifty K,

179
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 3: and they're like, no, she was on the field.

180
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 4: Oh so it's like she danced. Yeah, she performed performing,

181
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 4: so you lose.

182
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 3: So it's like it's like they'll bet, like what color

183
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 3: is the gatorade gonna get dumped? And I was like,

184
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 3: if you're the gatorade guy and you have a choice

185
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 3: between orange and blue, aren't you tipping off your friend

186
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 3: with just with no digital track record, You're just like

187
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 3: having a paper mailing conspiracy between the I'm gonna make

188
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: it glacier freeze.

189
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 4: Bet on glacier freeze.

190
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 3: But that part you can bet on that through regulated sites.

191
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 3: The polymarker stuff is completely unregulated, and there were members

192
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 3: of the government who were betting on things the government

193
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 3: was going to do before they did them last year.

194
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 3: To me though, that like this whole that whole stuff

195
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 3: is like organized crime. Like but but what I mean

196
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 3: is that like if normal squares don't participate in you're

197
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: not they're not going to mess with you.

198
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 4: Like, it's not going to affect you.

199
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 3: It's all the people who get screwed or the people

200
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 3: that try to you know, get in bed with the cartel,

201
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 3: you know, and try to make money. So they're the

202
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 3: ones that are gonna lose their ass on that stuff.

203
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 4: Well, that being said, I don't know where that money

204
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 4: comes from.

205
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: So it's like if the government is manipulating something and

206
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 3: these guys are all cashing in and it's all you know, grift.

207
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 3: It's not coming out of my pocket when they win. Right,

208
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 3: it's not like a tax funded polymarket. It's a private entity. No,

209
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 3: I don't know, stick your money in your walls for

210
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 3: a little bit. I think it is probably the safest thing. Yeah, Yeah,

211
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 3: it's weird. It's a weird time they put a ten

212
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 3: day freeze on any air traveler that FAA has stopped

213
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 3: air travel above l Passo for ten days and won't

214
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 3: say why. And if you fly anything around there, they're

215
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 3: gonna shoot you down, but they won't say why. The

216
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 3: head of security for one of the biggest AI platforms

217
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 3: quit yesterday and said that the world is in peril

218
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 3: and I want to go do poetry in the United Kingdom.

219
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 3: These are strange events that are happening concurrent and then

220
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 3: you know, there's the whole the epstein List thing, and

221
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 3: it's impossible to grasp anything that is going on right

222
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 3: now because all of it feels like it's all combined

223
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 3: into one huge story that none of us can get

224
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,319
Speaker 3: our arms around. But that's the thing, is like you're

225
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 3: never gonna like, I'm not going to read through the

226
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 3: three million documents, so like I feel like I'll do it,

227
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 3: I know, but right and then they'll tell you what

228
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 3: you're supposed to think about the whole thing.

229
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, forget it.

230
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 9: Ha, So do I have to buy a Valentine's Day present?

231
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 3: I think you're okay? Yeah, yeah, oh god, I think

232
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 3: we're good until Monday, yeah till yeah. Yeah, so yes,

233
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 3: all requirements are still on the table for the weekend.

234
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 9: Well, in that case, the clock is taking.

235
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 4: More, the doomsday clock, the one more minute closer to midnight.

236
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 2: Valentine's Day is coming up this Saturday, so it's time

237
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 2: to figure out what to get for your someone special.

238
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 2: But before you run out and grab roses in a

239
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 2: box of chocolates like you've done so many times before,

240
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: A Least Turmer, founder of luxury gift concierge service Mister Considerate,

241
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 2: has some advice for you. She often sees her clients,

242
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: who are mostly men in relationships with women, scrambled to

243
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 2: find a present for the holiday, and while being a

244
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,559
Speaker 2: thoughtful gift giver takes time and effort, Dermer points out

245
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: that it's not impossible. She explains the perfect gift says,

246
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 2: I hear you, I see you, and I appreciate.

247
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 3: Cracking up right now, because I'm just realizing that my wife,

248
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 3: I think, like a lot of women, will even with

249
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: the most dense men, they will put the puzzle piece

250
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 3: almost all the way together, and they'll leave like two

251
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 3: pieces out, and they'll say shouldn't those go there? Like,

252
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,599
Speaker 3: That's the kind I'm realizing right now. And this is

253
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: why I'm laughing. My wife gave me a softball and

254
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 3: I'm whiffing on it right now because on Sunday we're

255
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 3: gonna go see a concert. She wanted to go out

256
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 3: to dinner beforehand, but we have a wrestling tournament that day,

257
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 3: and I'm like, now we gotta go to the wrestling.

258
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:22,199
Speaker 4: She's given me a softball.

259
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 3: She's saying, I want to go to I want to

260
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 3: go to dinner with you for Valentine's. They were not

261
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 3: doing anything for Valentine's. They go to dinner with me,

262
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 3: and I'm like, yeah, but the kids gotta make weight

263
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 3: and then I gotta, you know, I gotta make sure

264
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 3: that we're all squared away there. Just totally don't whiff

265
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 3: on the softball. Think about this. Men listening right now,

266
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 3: think if there's a softball being pitched your way. But

267
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 3: this is this is the key to it all. You

268
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 3: don't have to even if it's a last minute thing.

269
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 3: If you personalize something some way, shape or form, it

270
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 3: doesn't have to be the roses and chocolates and stuff

271
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 3: like that.

272
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 4: If your significant other is into knitting.

273
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 3: Hmm, do something related to that says like, hey, I

274
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 3: pay attention to what you dig and it can really,

275
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 3: it can really do a lot of work for you.

276
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,439
Speaker 3: It can make up for a lot of your insufficiencies

277
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 3: as a partner. All this takes is an effort. This

278
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 3: is what I think women like out of Valentine's Day.

279
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 3: And if you can be the most you can be

280
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 3: inconvenienced about doing something.

281
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 4: That's where they think, oh, look how much effort.

282
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 3: Like if you had a horrible time getting together whatever

283
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 3: you had to get together, she will appreciate that because

284
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 3: they love when you're inconvenienced, because that means that you're

285
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 3: you're trudging through the mud for them a little bit.

286
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 3: I had to go to Harmerville to get these flowers.

287
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 3: Oh that's nice, like you to just pick them up

288
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 3: a giant eagle along with the pork.

289
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 4: Roast, you know. Yeah, I got drem the guy on Banksville.

290
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 4: Yeah they're almost not dead. Yeah no.

291
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 3: But it's so funny though that so many guys I

292
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: know treat Valentine's Day like their wife is working for

293
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 3: their company, and instead of giving them a Christmas bonus,

294
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 3: they like, how about you just be happy you're employed,

295
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,719
Speaker 3: like there won't be a bonus this year. Yeah, you

296
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 3: think you can go and get another job, Well, have

297
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 3: at it. We had a rough fourth quarter. Yeah we can't.

298
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,439
Speaker 3: Which is the wrong way to go about it.

299
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 2: Well, some things that are on the list you guys

300
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 2: have mentioned, give a gift that shows that you are

301
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 2: paying attention.

302
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 9: And I agree with Jeff.

303
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: I think most of the time women are giving you

304
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 2: the signs. All of the keys are just waiting for you.

305
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 2: So I notice that your partner might have left a

306
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 2: few hints. Think of things that they could use every

307
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 2: day that would be an upgrade, things that they never

308
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: buy for themselves. If you can remember something that they

309
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: mentioned liking even better. I did see an article earlier

310
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 2: in the week where people were admitting to using their

311
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 2: notes apps a little more frequently.

312
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 9: I do it all the time too. Be careful about

313
00:14:58,760 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 9: going too practical.

314
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 2: Another point of advice, because giving your partner something that

315
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 2: they can use regularly that would solve a.

316
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 9: Problem is appreciated.

317
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 2: But they might not be super excited about unwrapping a

318
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 2: toaster for valid.

319
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 4: Didn't you give wait was it you? They got your

320
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 4: wife of a vacuum it wasn't you.

321
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 3: Somebody got their wife a vacuum, and I was like, what,

322
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 3: how do you not think that that's gonna bad?

323
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 4: Father of the Bride.

324
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 3: I remember there was a big scene in Father of

325
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 3: the Bride where the groom or whatever gets the daughter

326
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 3: like a kitchen aid mixer and she flips out on him.

327
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 3: She's like, what am I like some barefoot pregnant woman.

328
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 3: I just gotta cook for you all the time. Like, okay,

329
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 3: don't do that next on those are like five hundred.

330
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 4: A lot of women would like that thing.

331
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 6: I thought this vacuum would be a good idea because

332
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 6: place is a dump and we could sort of work

333
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 6: together to clean it up to be an US event.

334
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 2: Experiences over material things makes the list. People love to

335
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 2: give things, but experiences can be enjoyed far longer. Sure,

336
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 2: a new piece of jewelry can be an exciting present,

337
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 2: but buying tickets to see your partner's favorite band creates

338
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 2: a special memory. Giving the gift of something that lets

339
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 2: you spend quality time together is always a big hit.

340
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 11: Yeah.

341
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 3: See, like that's why I always thought jewelry. I don't

342
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 3: know why I always thought that was a little teeny

343
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 3: little bit lame, Like I just do too. And I

344
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 3: know that that maybe it's just because it's probably just

345
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: because I'm a cheap skate, but like, and I rationalize,

346
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 3: rationalize it down, but like, I just don't feel like

347
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 3: there's any like what I don't know unless it's something

348
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 3: that actually is meaningful. Like I have a hard time

349
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 3: that that you know, she's going to need a chocolate

350
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 3: diamond from K Jewelers or whatever like that that I

351
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: don't know if that means a ton.

352
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 2: Jewelry has to be big occasions. Yeah, yeah, I think

353
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 2: if after a while one always go to jewelry, it loses.

354
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 3: Like the only time I ever got her jewelry was

355
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 3: on our tenure wedding anniversary. I got her a ring

356
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 3: with all the birthstones of me, Her and both my sons,

357
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 3: and I was like, Okay, that's it for the next decade,

358
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 3: Like that's all that I got to do.

359
00:16:58,480 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 5: That.

360
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, that just that that clicked that.

361
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 3: I just want to point out one thing in no

362
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 3: discussion about Valentine's Day, is anybody ever saying, women, here's

363
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 3: what you need to do for your man on Valentine's.

364
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 4: That is true? Correct, That is true.

365
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 3: You're Bavvy saying correct as in keep it that way.

366
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 4: Yeah.

367
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is exclusively a one way road. Yeah, okay,

368
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,479
Speaker 3: just like making it clear Valentine's Day is all about scared.

369
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: The three of us are to ask any follow up

370
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 3: questions right now. You feel like I feel a little

371
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 3: threatened right now. I'm just making clear for the course

372
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 3: that Valentine's Day a man should expect nothing in return.

373
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 4: It's a one way street.

374
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 9: You has one to hear the last ones so you

375
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 9: can live.

376
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, the last thing on the list. Presentation makes

377
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 2: all the difference. There's nothing wrong with Valentine's Day classics

378
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 2: like roses or chocolates, but you don't want it to

379
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 2: look like you're just checking the boxes with your gift.

380
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 2: If you buy grocery store flowers, take the plat stick

381
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 2: off and in a base to make it look like

382
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 2: you thought of a thoughtful present or a fill a

383
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 2: jar with chocolate candies and you know, take all the price.

384
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 3: One time did that, and I was, but I bought

385
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 3: a vase also, So I was in the parking lot

386
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 3: of Giant Eagle because I was going home, and I

387
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 3: was I had like my utility knife out and I

388
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 3: was like cutting the stems off of roses off the

389
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:21,199
Speaker 3: back of my bumper.

390
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 4: And these two women looked at me and they go look.

391
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 3: At that, like they could see, like look at this

392
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 3: poor idiot, like trying to make something happen here, Like

393
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 3: he's at least trying to he's inconveniencing himself horribly. Like

394
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 3: he took the plastic off. He's sawing rose stems in

395
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 3: the giant Eagle parking lot. Like this guy at least

396
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 3: at least kind of knows what he's doing. That's how

397
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 3: low the bar is, that's how he took the wrapper off.

398
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 4: He's a keeper.

399
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you're DoD cloud these guys with a

400
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 2: high of thirty five.

425
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 4: Morning here on the d Morning Show Mike he Does.

426
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 13: Sports is Starre, brought to you by Bridgeville Appliance. The

427
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 13: US women smashed Canada on the ice at the Winter Olympics,

428
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 13: and pit basketball no match for number four Duke.

429
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 4: But before we.

430
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 13: Get to any of that, it is time for the

431
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 13: aforementioned three takes that resonate. Number one, Eddie Osumigo and

432
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 13: thank you neither Don Kelly nor Ben Charrington could bring

433
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 13: themselves to officially say Andrew mccutchen's time with the Pirates

434
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 13: has finally come to an end yesterday. But as they

435
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 13: spoke of McCutcheon on a media zoom with a respect

436
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 13: that bordered on reverence, they delivered that very message, and

437
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 13: it was one that needed to be delivered. McCutcheon is

438
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 13: an all time Pirate and should be remembered as such

439
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 13: for both of his Pittsburgh ten years. But if the

440
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 13: Pirates are to finally take the steps necessary to regain

441
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 13: their long lost credibility and actually compete this season, it

442
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 13: isn't going to be with a thirty nine year old

443
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 13: who hit thirteen home runs last season at DH. All

444
00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 13: good things come to an end, even if the vest

445
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 13: majority of them, and badly number two.

446
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 4: So how serious are today?

447
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 13: The bats that have been added, the ones that signaled

448
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 13: and end to McCutcheon's viability in Pittsburgh, likewise, have sent

449
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 13: a message Bob Nutting is actually spending a little money

450
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 13: for a change.

451
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 4: The next step.

452
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 13: Would be giving nineteen year old Phenom Connor Griffin every

453
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 13: opportunity to become the opening.

454
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 4: Day shortstops you're here, and if that.

455
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 13: Starts his eventual free agent clock ticking this season, so

456
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 13: be it. Analyst Keith Law has maintained Griffin is baseball's

457
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 13: best prospect since Mike Trout, and it's not as if

458
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,679
Speaker 13: the Pirates improved as they potentially are have a Bobby

459
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 13: Witt junior or a Francisco Lindor to beat out it

460
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 13: short might the next step be Paul's schemes like buzz

461
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 13: and paul schemes like anticipation every day as opposed to

462
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 13: only when its schemes turned in the rotation number three?

463
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 13: Just win baby? So what are we talking about here?

464
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 13: In terms of a number? The hunt for Reds October

465
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 13: ended at eighty three wins this season, and the Bucks

466
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 13: finished with seventy one and haven't won as many as

467
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 13: eighty two games in the season since twenty eighteen. Kelly

468
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 13: is relying initially on the admittedly cliched approach of just

469
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 13: trying to get everyone to pull the rope in the

470
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 13: same direction. Terrington's focus at president is on the team

471
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 13: doing what it takes to win on a daily basis

472
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 13: and letting the actual number of wins take.

473
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 4: Care of themselves.

474
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 13: It's a bolt strategy cout and let's see how it

475
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 13: plays out for them as it does. Both men better

476
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 13: understand there are actual expectations this time.

477
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 4: There sure are well done, Mike.

478
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 13: If Ikes take again, there's gonna be a new manager

479
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 13: in a new GM.

480
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 3: Connor Griffin's gotta play as long as he can do

481
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 3: it in the spring.

482
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 13: I mean, I know the spring is unrealistic, but if

483
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 13: he goes to Bradenton and excels, they gotta play.

484
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 3: But Mike, I read secondhand about it, possibly apocryphal story

485
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 3: where he adjusted his stance and hit Skeens on his

486
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 3: second facing, second time facing him, so he must be ready.

487
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 4: That was yesterday. That did it happen?

488
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 11: I'm sorry Monday?

489
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 4: Okay, Well that's good enough for me. Will Donny Kelly

490
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 4: talk about that if you like, I would like, I

491
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 4: would like. Indeed.

492
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 13: Yeah, the kids struck out and then he made a

493
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 13: couple of adjustments and the line went into the outfield.

494
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 4: He's ready for prime time. Then I heard it was

495
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 4: even like Charlie Brown.

496
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 13: It gets spun around and skins got.

497
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 11: Undressed and.

498
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 4: Dust all over the place.

499
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 13: I feel strange talking about pirate baseball, not me. Let's

500
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 13: go in with realistic anticipation.

501
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 3: Well, we get suckered into this all the time. You

502
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 3: want to use the Charlie Brown in analogy. They have

503
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 3: been lucy to our Charlie Brown for so long and

504
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,679
Speaker 3: just ripping that football away as we go to kick it.

505
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 13: But here has been every year to start fresh. Yeah,

506
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 13: and then let them tell us what they are exactly,

507
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 13: and usually they tell us by late April that they stink.

508
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 3: And then we move on to OCAs we're willing to

509
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 3: give you a chance. They get a third basement and

510
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 3: the kid can play short.

511
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 13: Hey, who knows man Red's got in the playoffs with

512
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 13: eighty three wins, five hundred, eighty one and eighty one.

513
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 4: Shelty going to Minnesota.

514
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 3: Did you see that whole he left Pittsburgh they increased

515
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 3: their payroll twenty million, and goes to Minnesota.

516
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 4: They slack it last thirty five million.

517
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like he's like the doge of baseball managers.

518
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 13: Yeah, he's making a lot of money to lose.

519
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 3: Someone posted that actually underneath the They replied, like Myron

520
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: used to say, he can cry himself to sleep in

521
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 3: his mansion.

522
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 4: Like geez, all right.

523
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 13: Uh, Pirates first official workout for pictures and catchers is

524
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 13: today in Bradenton, and uh, everybody is heading there. Well,

525
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 13: once they'll get there, Ben Sherrington is gonna have potentially

526
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 13: more at his disposable disposal excuse me, than he's had

527
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 13: in any of his previous six season.

528
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 4: Is this general manager?

529
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 14: From a spring training perspective and just thinking about the

530
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 14: players that we'll have in camp, it's it's probably the

531
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 14: deepest most.

532
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 4: Talented group with that.

533
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 14: We actually talked about this today in our first staff meeting.

534
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 14: That sort of stops mattering today. You know, all the

535
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 14: matters today is and from today on is are we

536
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,360
Speaker 14: doing the things every day to give ourselves the best

537
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 14: chance to win games?

538
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,400
Speaker 11: And we go to New York and beyond.

539
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 14: During the season, so, you know, belief in the players, yes,

540
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 14: and also clear to me, clear to us that whatever

541
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 14: the roster says, whatever the you know, projection say, whatever

542
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:50,120
Speaker 14: the estimates say, whatever the prognostic ostion prognostications say, we've

543
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 14: got to go out and do the work that leads

544
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 14: to winning baseball games.

545
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 4: Keep our energy there.

546
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 14: And I know that's what Donnie is singularly focused on

547
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 14: what our players. I believe that's what players are singularly

548
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 14: focused on that's that'll be the job of spring training

549
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 14: and make sure we're doing now.

550
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 13: Yeah, Don Kelly and Charrington are on the same page,

551
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 13: although Kelly's a whole lot more enthusiastic about it.

552
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 4: Oh man.

553
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 15: I mean, the emotions are the excitement is is real.

554
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 4: It's high.

555
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 16: I think that there's always excitement going into spring.

556
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 15: And looking at this one with the moves that we've

557
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 15: been able to make in the off season, to pair

558
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 15: with the guys that we have coming back, it's real there.

559
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 15: It's it's you can feel it around camp, you can

560
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 15: feel it in in the clubhouse, out on the fields.

561
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 15: Guys are excited to go, and for me personally, just

562
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 15: it's it's the same.

563
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm that excitement is real. It's it's a it's.

564
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 16: A good vibe and pumped to get to the field

565
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,679
Speaker 16: every day and be out there with with the staff

566
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 16: and the players.

567
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 4: I think that for me.

568
00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 16: As far as anything changing, you know, just really want

569
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 16: to be that stable force for the staff and for

570
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 16: the players and to again let them know that I'm

571
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 16: there for them and with them.

572
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 4: And you know, whether highs. We talk about the roller

573
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 4: coaster all the time and how.

574
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 16: Do we as a staff, how do we stay in

575
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 16: the middle and try to keep the players off.

576
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 4: The roller coaster.

577
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 13: Translation, when the analytics department gives me the computer print

578
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 13: out of the lineup, I'm gonna post it and then

579
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 13: clap and say get it.

580
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 4: Come on, buccos, let's do it.

581
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 3: Little cynicism for the analytics invasions, No, I know, but

582
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 3: you can't get away from it. It's all about like

583
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 3: how much leeweight does he have to use his gut?

584
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 3: And I know if you bail out on analytics part way,

585
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 3: you're not really doing it the way you have to

586
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 3: play the percentages.

587
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 4: You have to play the percentages.

588
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 13: Another thing I can find a little curious about Mike McCarthy.

589
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 13: He said that you use it sometimes, right, Like that's

590
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 13: the wrong way to use it.

591
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:02,239
Speaker 4: Analytics you either do or you don't. Well, and in

592
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 4: football especially you better not.

593
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 13: Like the analytics don't decide whether you can block will

594
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 13: Anderson or not. They just decide what the percentages are

595
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 13: on third and two, Yes, just what they go down

596
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 13: when you have to blow.

597
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 3: But that's what I'm saying, is that I think that

598
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 3: you can use them like in independent situations. Does the

599
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 3: percentage possibility of heads or tails ever change.

600
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 11: It's a little over my head.

601
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 4: No, this is my point.

602
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 13: So if it's heads fifty times in a row, it's

603
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 13: still fifty to fifty.

604
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, it's not because you wouldn't call it.

605
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 11: Somebody than decided that.

606
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 4: It's not me.

607
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 3: My probs and stats class at IEP didn't it schooled

608
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 3: me that well?

609
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 4: But Abbam's got your new Top.

610
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 11: Of the hour.

611
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 4: What we're talking about there.

612
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 9: Is renewed scrutiny in the death of kin.

613
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 4: This is an interesting story.

614
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 3: I know that you have a little more or a

615
00:28:54,840 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 3: little less enthusiasm for the potential of this being a

616
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 3: juggernaut of a news story.

617
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 4: But I think there might be something there. I don't know.

618
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 3: We'll dig in, Merril Hodge when we come back to

619
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 3: Whistles with us this morning, and Ted, you're gonna take

620
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 3: us through some of the most exciting names in the

621
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 3: NFL Draft this year. And by that I don't mean

622
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 3: exciting players. I mean literally they're literal names, their names.

623
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 3: There's some great names out there this year.

624
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 6: It's not just Tank Bigsby and a bunch of guys

625
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 6: named Steve. This is a bumper crop of names.

626
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:36,680

Speaker 4: I know, yeah, it seems like the thaw is here.

663
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 3: I was anxious to talk to you because I wanted

664
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 3: to hear your thoughts on Drake May and the Super Bowl.

665
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 3: Was that a performance from Drake May that he's going

666
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 3: to have a hard time living now or was that

667
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 3: just a Seattle defense that nobody should hang their head

668
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 3: for not having success against.

669
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 11: Well, you know, it's a good question, you know, littless night.

670
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 7: I was not a big fan of Drake May coming

671
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 7: out for a bunch of reasons. Actually he's probably he

672
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 7: was one of the most interesting studies I've ever had,

673
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 7: and I learned a lot from him, you know, just

674
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 7: in the transition from college to the NFL. I mean,

675
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 7: there's so many tedious things that you got to be

676
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 7: aware of and watch for, and one of them was

677
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 7: like his overall footwork, how he was in college versus

678
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 7: what they did in the NFL, which changed his inconsistencies.

679
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 7: Now that being said, they took advantage of his youth

680
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 7: and his inexperience. I mean, Seattle did him, but like

681
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 7: our Seattle's partly like that all year long.

682
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 11: And they didn't do it because they had two weeks.

683
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 7: They did it because he's so inexperience and the left

684
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 7: side of their obviously line is inexperienced, you know, and

685
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 7: as a whole, they took advantage of that. You know,

686
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 7: they that that's that's honestly when you you look. I

687
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 7: don't think Drake May has to you know, I don't

688
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 7: think this should be a knock on Drake May. I

689
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 7: think anybody in that scenario and listen, see how the

690
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 7: best they're the best team in in football, no matter

691
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 7: who who won in the ANFC, they were going to

692
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 7: be better.

693
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 11: They weren't going to be as good as Seattle, but the.

694
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 7: Way they pressured him, the disguising and the timing in

695
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 7: which they did it as we're put a lot of veterans,

696
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:42,719
Speaker 7: you know, in trouble.

697
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 11: But I don't think it's that it's a knock on him.

698
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 7: I think what he has done and how better much

699
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 7: better he has gotten, and how he has played is

700
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 7: a credit to him and how hard he's worked. So no,

701
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,719
Speaker 7: I do not think it's a knock on Drake May

702
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 7: at all. It's the experience. Experience. Listen there, But there

703
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 7: were wide receivers were busting things too when they were pressuring,

704
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 7: you know, some of them were running pots.

705
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 11: So they got everybody. They didn't just get Draken May,

706
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 11: they got everybody. Meryl I.

707
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 13: I emerged from watching that game really confused, because I've

708
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 13: been told a million times it's all about quarterbacks and

709
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 13: passing in points in the NFL, And yet there was

710
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 13: a team that ran the ball, that had a running

711
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 13: back that ran for over one hundred yards and that

712
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 13: team won. And there was a team that protected the

713
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 13: football and won turnovers and that team won, And there

714
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 13: was a quarterback that kind of game managed it towards,

715
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 13: you know, protecting the ball and winning turnovers. And that

716
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 13: team won. And there was a team that played the

717
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 13: hell out of defense and that team won.

718
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 4: How that happen?

719
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,239
Speaker 7: Well, if I was your boss, I'd fire you right

720
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 7: now because I don't I don't know, I don't know

721
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 7: how long. And I've been doing shows.

722
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 11: Did that one go over my head? Yeah? But what

723
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 11: an opportunity to run you over before I do that?

724
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:09,240
Speaker 4: Thanks, pardon.

725
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 11: Well, this is that's why I go back. This goes

726
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 11: all the way back.

727
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 7: This is not new new to the NFL. This has

728
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 7: not changed. I mean Chuck Nole taught me this in

729
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 7: nineteen eighty seven. Okay, teams win championships number one and

730
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 7: number two the two things that.

731
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 11: You have to do.

732
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 7: And this this is not only Chuck Noles, but it's

733
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 7: kind of like Bill Parcells, John Gruden, Tony Dungee, Marty Schottenheimer,

734
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 7: Mike Dick.

735
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 11: I mean, going along all the people that the coachman,

736
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 11: Bill Cower.

737
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 7: You control the temple of the game, there's about the

738
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 7: eighty percent chance of being able to win the game.

739
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 7: Then if you win the turnover battle, you've just now

740
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 7: emerged into a ninety percent chance of winning the game.

741
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 11: What did they do? They controlled the line of scrimmage.

742
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 7: They eventually won the turnover battle, you know obviously, but

743
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 7: I mean if that's a matter of fact, because you

744
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 7: can't predict that they won the one area that is

745
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,959
Speaker 7: most pivotal, most critical in football at the NFL level.

746
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,760
Speaker 7: If the closer the better you are closer to the ball,

747
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 7: the better your overall team is.

748
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 11: Going to be.

749
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 7: And then and then listen, if it's an even match,

750
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 7: well then yeah, you got to go to your Then

751
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 7: you go to your skill players, and you start weighing

752
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 7: that out. And then how many phases does the defense

753
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 7: have an offense have? When I say phases, ways that

754
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 7: they can go about moving the ball if you take

755
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 7: something away, and just Seattle had had just more of that,

756
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 7: They're just they were a better team. And it just

757
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 7: went on display again, Like you know, listen, the quarterback

758
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,359
Speaker 7: is a critical component of every game.

759
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 11: Listen.

760
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,240
Speaker 7: I mean I'm not gonna I used to joke around

761
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 7: like you listen. I used to fill jaws all the time,

762
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 7: like how hard is being a quarterback? Okay, all you

763
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 7: have to do fifty percent of time. Let's say if

764
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 7: they're fifty fifty dollars. You turn around and hand the

765
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 7: ball off, and then you have zero to do with

766
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,439
Speaker 7: the game. You stand there and watch it. How hard

767
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 7: is that? Everybody in America can do that? Okay, so

768
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 7: fifty percent chance, I mean fifty percent of time. Anybody

769
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 7: in America can be a quarterback. Now, when you get to.

770
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 11: Throw in the football, we're not asking me to be

771
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 11: one hundred percent.

772
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 7: In fact, what good with sixty five or seventy and

773
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 7: all you got to do is throw it to the

774
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 7: open guy.

775
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:15,399
Speaker 11: How hard is that?

776
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 7: And it's not that dang hard as a quarterback said,

777
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:21,320
Speaker 7: that is a fieldal component.

778
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 11: You know how he goes. I'm want to tell you this.

779
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 7: Watching that Super Bowl, why I mean Drayton, they obviously

780
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 7: struggled massively under pressure. You could just see. I mean

781
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 7: he didn't see the field. He couldn't see the field.

782
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 7: They were moving so fast. They looked like the first

783
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 7: time he ever played. But on this on the Seattle side,

784
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 7: I mean he made throws in a dirty pocket, the

785
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 7: actual thing that you've got to exist in in the

786
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 7: NFL in critical times.

787
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 11: I mean it was his percent completion percent.

788
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,760
Speaker 7: He's not that great, No, but he made critical throws

789
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 7: at critical times, got him out of slipped the field,

790
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 7: made throws to get first downs when he needed to.

791
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 7: He complimented what they were doing in the running game.

792
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 7: And Sam Donald is you know, credit to him. You know,

793
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 7: he got benched, and you can do one of two

794
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 7: things when you get benched. You can need to just

795
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 7: like go Low's me, or you can fix the things

796
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 7: you need to fix. And then he fixed so many

797
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 7: things that he was just bad at, and I just.

798
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 11: I didn't He's a great story and a great story.

799
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 7: Of accountability and what you can do. Good things don't

800
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 7: go your way if you look at yourself and fix

801
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 7: the things that you need to fix next time you

802
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 7: get an opportunity.

803
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 11: So I just thought how you went in the NFL.

804
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 7: It was on display. Seattle did it. They exploited it

805
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,720
Speaker 7: the entire year. We saw it when they came here.

806
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 7: But they came here, I was like, Okay, they just dominated.

807
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 7: We didn't have any chance, and we didn't have control

808
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,799
Speaker 7: at any point of the game. Even when we had

809
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 7: that turnover down and we still didn't have any control.

810
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 7: That was just going to kind of get his back

811
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 7: in it. But we had no control of.

812
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 11: That game, maryl.

813
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 3: The last thing I have for you, we found out

814
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 3: Jim Schwartz is going to be leaving Cleveland as their

815
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 3: defensive coordinator. How much of a dent does that put

816
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,240
Speaker 3: in their very formidable defense?

817
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 4: How much did the coaching matter?

818
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 11: You know, listen, I.

819
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 7: Coaching is big, especially if it's good coaching, Okay, and

820
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 7: that that's a big dent because that guy knows his

821
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 7: personnel and they have and that's that system knows I mean,

822
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 7: those players know the system and getting that familiarity, you know,

823
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 7: is that's a hard ask, you know, when you have

824
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 7: somebody else come in here to try to relearn that

825
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 7: and that's a.

826
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 11: Big blow to them. That's a real big blow to them.

827
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 4: Good for us, Yeah, that's that's where I'm getting what

828
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 4: I was getting.

829
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 11: Good for us.

830
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 4: Sounds like a positive for the Steelers.

831
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 7: Yes, because I was thinking about that too, Like, you know,

832
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,280
Speaker 7: if they can hold on to him, they only they.

833
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 11: Got half their problems solved over there.

834
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 7: A defense pretty good that you know, rookie, they got linebackers,

835
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 7: what they have on the edge, you know they're not

836
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 7: they did it pretty We all know that they're they're

837
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 7: a good defense. But this this, you know this, I

838
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 7: think to put the dnum because how what is this

839
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 7: next coreinator do? Because that's all about you know, there's

840
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 7: there's two type of coaches at any level. I got

841
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 7: a system in this system works.

842
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 11: I can't.

843
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 7: I can't stand coaches like that because then you never

844
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 7: adjust to the real personnel that you have. It's that, well,

845
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 7: I got a system, but we do this better. So

846
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 7: let me let me cater to what our players do

847
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 7: really well and adjust my system. I played for a

848
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:24,839
Speaker 7: lot of coaches on Tom Moore was like that.

849
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,320
Speaker 11: So so Tom Moore was our first off its coordinator

850
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 11: I had in the.

851
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 7: League, and then he built Peyton Manning. Okay, so he

852
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 7: won't do the same thing here that he did.

853
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 11: Know.

854
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 7: The guy was just coaches that do that are have

855
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:42,800
Speaker 7: the most success, and they go the furthest and I uh,

856
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 7: basisly to you. They get now, you know, but that

857
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 7: is a blow because he had that defense dialed in

858
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 7: and he knew them and understood them, and they and

859
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,240
Speaker 7: they like playing for him too, which is another plus.

860
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 4: Now, last I said that was gonna be the last thing,

861
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 4: but I have one more.

862
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 3: Have any of the coaching hires Mike McCarthy and the

863
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 3: Steelers have announced giving you a little hey, all right,

864
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 3: like that's a good move.

865
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 11: You know, I don't know the overall staff as I obviously.

866
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 4: I haven't really looked at.

867
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 7: But but I will tell you this. I'm going to

868
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 7: tell you what it's forgotten about, you know, And like

869
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 7: one are people that like Mike McCarthy hired, Like wait

870
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 7: a minute, if they're using history where we want young,

871
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 7: a young coach and start over and it ends up great,

872
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 7: we'll hit us.

873
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 4: And Bill Cower and.

874
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,320
Speaker 7: Hereded a playoff team when he got it, Mike Tomlin

875
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,799
Speaker 7: inherited a super Bowl team. Mike McCarthy's a hairing a

876
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 7: team that's just not stable, Like you need somebody that

877
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 7: can create some stability, and and we don't. We don't

878
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 7: have a quarterback. We're inconsistent there. And I think he's

879
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 7: the perfect guy to create stability and find and build

880
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 7: a guy that can be a future quarterback and some

881
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 7: some stability there, not just there, but from an offensive perspective,

882
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 7: this thinks he brings a lot of things.

883
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 11: That we need and we haven't seen.

884
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 7: And he's building a staff that he understands that stuff too.

885
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:03,040
Speaker 11: On both sides of the ball.

886
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,399
Speaker 7: So I think it's absolute right higher, and I think

887
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 7: that there's a great energy about it in the building

888
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 7: and that's all that matters.

889
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, James Harrison was remarking that he was really excited

890
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 3: about Demanto Paco being hired as defensive line coach.

891
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 11: You know, I ran into him yesterday.

892
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 7: I'm like, I'm so used to being in pads and stuff.

893
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 11: Nice not seeing pats coming around the corner. Want to survive?

894
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 7: Yeah, I actually, I actually there is some I mean

895
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 7: I haven't really just looked at all the staff, so

896
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 7: I can't speak intelligent, so I don't want to even

897
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 7: guess because but I just know mine has great history,

898
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 7: and I've got a lot of people that he trusts

899
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 7: and will build what he's looking to build, and and

900
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 7: you got to trust that. And I've always liked him.

901
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 7: I also myrid from from from a distance and then

902
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 7: I got to know him over time too in different venues.

903
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,919
Speaker 7: And I know he's excited and Steve A fans should

904
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 7: be exciting because there'll be a lot of changes and

905
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 7: there's a lot of energy. But there I think there's

906
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 7: a lot of excitement with things that he sees that

907
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 7: we need to get better and build a championship team.

908
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,720
