1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: Put in the eye in ayahuasca. It's our number on. 2 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: Our one is ready to go a brand new week. 3 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,479 Speaker 1: Happy Monday to you.

Not much of a game. The Steelers 10 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 1: had an early lead and then it was domination the 11 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: rest of the way from the Chargers. What's your takeaway 12 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 1: from Mike Tomlin giving a reporter the death stare when 13 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 1: asked about Aaron Rodgers' performance for the Pittsburgh football team. Also, 14 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 1: how much stalk do you put in Mike Tomlin promising 15 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: that the Steelers he said, we'll be back and show 16 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: up to the game on Sunday night? And is this 17 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: embarrassing for the NFL that the Chargers haven't been able 18 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: to develop a fan base. There were thousands and thousands 19 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: of terrible tale at that game last night at sofar 20 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: and we'll talk about that and more right now.

And it was the 46 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: daily double at so Far and as our lead there 47 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: Sunday night for Mike Tomlin and the Steelers visiting SoCal 48 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: to take on Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers in a 49 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: made for TV matchup. I did not get to hear 50 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 1: the broadcast. I imagine that Chris Collsworth was slobbering all 51 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: over both quarterbacks, so the very difficult to slobber over 52 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers the way that he played. But there they 53 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: were at so Far in the hood in Inglewood and 54 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: up to no good. That was Aaron Rodgers up to 55 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: no good. My god, horrific. So I'll get right into it. 56 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, who wasn't all that great either. He had 57 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: two hundred and twenty yards passing and a touchdown and 58 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers a stumble bump performance for Aaron Rodgers, his 59 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:48,839 Speaker 1: worst game with the Pet sparkstiff. Despite being surrounded by 60 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: nothing but black and yellow, black and yellow, black and yellow, 61 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: black and yellow. It did not matter as the Chargers 62 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: slapping around Aaron Rodgers and a lot of that was 63 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: unforced mistake by Rogers twenty five to ten. Your final 64 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: score saw the game? You know that on Sunday night 65 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: there for the third straight win. Show me your lightning bolt. Now, 66 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: the better story is in the losing locker room. Aaron 67 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: Rodgers completed barely over fifty percent of his passes in 68 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: this game. I'm told that's not good. He averaged a 69 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: little over five yards of pass which was actually better 70 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: than it had been most of the game thanks to 71 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and the garbage time touchdown with less 72 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: than three minutes to go the game. Well in the bag, 73 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: what's in the back? The win is in the bag 74 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: for the team from Los Angeles, the Chargers. There. Rogers 75 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: also had an interception that he sacked for a safety 76 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: in the end zone, obviously, and then also fumble, though 77 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: that was recovered. So when asked to assess Aaron Rodgers play, 78 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin, the Steelers head coach, seemingly dismissing the question 79 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: there and he delivered a death stare, a Mike Tomlin 80 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: death stare to the reporter, do we have that. I 81 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: don't know we have that we have that. I listened 82 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: to Mike Tomlin here has asked the basic question you're 83 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: starting quarterback, went out there and wrote the comment, what 84 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: do you have to say for yourself? 85 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 3: How would you? 86 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: How would you? How would you? All right? So that 87 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss I 88 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: always like angry Mike Tomlin's fun. It's fun angry Mike Tomlin. 89 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: It was an obvious question. Everyone knows the answer to that. 90 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 1: It's like, but you're not supposed to say it. So 91 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: let us discuss the question what is your takeaway from 92 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin and the death Stare? The death stair like 93 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: the male Medusa right there, Mike tom about Aaron Rodgers 94 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: and how to assess his performance or lack thereof. So 95 00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: I've got limited edition frosty mug and background noise, and 96 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we 97 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: are going to pig out on ballpark food like stale popcorn, nachos, 98 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: hot dogs. There's a lot of ballpark food everywhere being tossed. 99 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: So hey, my first thought on this, I loved the 100 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: Tomlin desk there, not quite to the level of Bill 101 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: Belichick back in his salad days with the Patriots. But Tomlin, 102 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: his blood was boiling. The blood was He's like, here 103 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: we go again, Here we go again. And Ben Roethlisberger 104 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: was not very good the end of his time in Pittsburgh. 105 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: They've had a revolving door of dumb and dumber at 106 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: quarterback ever since Roethlisberger left. And again he went very 107 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: good at the end there in Pittsburgh. And so they 108 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: went through a bunch last year was justin Fields, Holy 109 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: crappt us. He sucked and you see what he did 110 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: for the Jets. Again they won, but not because him 111 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: and then also Russell Wilson. So they're like, well we 112 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: got better, and Aaron Rodgers has actually been better than 113 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: what they had gotten there in Pittsburgh. But this was horrific. 114 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: That was not the kind of performance you expected. Obviously, 115 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: no one expected that. And man Rogers looking like he 116 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: belonged in a museum, and not the Pro Football Hall 117 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: of Fame. I'm talking about like a museum where they 118 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: look at dinosaurs. Man ancient looking there for Rogers in 119 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: the game. And I was actually sitting kind of near 120 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: the end zone when Rogers stumbled and bumbled and fell 121 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: down there for the safety early in the football game there, 122 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: and any success he had in this game was in 123 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: garbage time. The game had already been decided. The outcome 124 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: was going to go to the Chargers, and then that's it. 125 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: So you'd think the way he was playing, there should 126 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: be some kind of spin off with Nike, a limited 127 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: edition Nike Orthopedic cleat. I get those special Orthopedic cleats 128 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: with the swooshot him and get him a walker holy 129 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: canoy man. Instead of just do it, just nap will 130 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: be the phrase there for Rogers. Watching him play here, 131 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: he looked like forget forty one. He played like he 132 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: was in his late sixties there, plodding along slow. There 133 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: was really no rhythm, no method to the madness here 134 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: for Aaron Rodgers, and we call the type of game 135 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: Rogers had it's called the Compass Rose. What is the 136 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: compass Rose quarterback? That is where the passes go up 137 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: and down and right and left, and Rogers, it seemed, specifically, 138 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: had mastered in this game the art of the overthrow. 139 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: The art of the overthrow. There was vintage. This was 140 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: like Jets era Rodgers, although I felt like it was 141 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: worse than that. Even watching it in person. I've seen 142 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: it on TV a bunch, but to be there in 143 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: the building and watch it in person, I was like, 144 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: ooh yeah, man, like boy, I gotta get more monologues 145 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: in on Rogers. He's not gonna be around very much longer. 146 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 1: Holy crap, man a lot with the last twenty years 147 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: of my life talking about his cat Rodgers and who 148 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: man and just grumpy, your typical one. Things aren't going well. 149 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: You're disengaged, you're not fired up here. He's like trying 150 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: to do a fill in for a Sesame Street character 151 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: Oscar the Grouch, grouchy, grouchy, grouchy, grouchy, grouchy man a lot. 152 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: Let's they were playing in a swamp. The Steelers' offense, nothing, 153 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: nothing going on. Third down for Aaron Rodgers. It was bad. 154 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: So they had that limited edition orthopedic shoe for Rogers, 155 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: and you half expected him in the third quarter just 156 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: to crawl back into the trash can the way that 157 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: he was playing, and of course see what it was. 158 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: He distracted because you know, his imaginary wife was there, 159 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: maybe his real wife, I don't know, who knows he's 160 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: in your house in Malibu. Although I think he's moving. 161 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on with that. But it's 162 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: week ten. There are no more excuse like the first 163 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 1: five weeks. Wo it's early, We'll figure it out. Nothing 164 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: to worry about. It's weak ten. We are past the 165 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: midway point. What are you doing? This is who you are. 166 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: The trade deadline is over. There's no reinforcements coming in 167 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: to save the day. This is what you got. Now 168 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: are we discounting the Chargers? Here? Are the Chargers a 169 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 1: really good defense? Then we're like they're good defense? I 170 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: don't know. I would say really good, and I would 171 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: argue based on both watching the game on the monitor 172 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: and I'm flipping down with my own eyeballs. It seemed 173 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,599 Speaker 1: more case of these were self inflicted wounds by the 174 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers in this game. So, using the Malor scale 175 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: of concern, the Malor scale of concern one to ten, 176 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: with ten being the worst of the worst of the worst, 177 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: I'm at a nine. I'm at a nine. Am I 178 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: being a prisoner of the moment? Probably so? Probably so? 179 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: But I'm at a nine. I just I'm telling you 180 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: what I just watched. That is not a guy that's 181 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: gonna win a playoff game. That is not a guy. 182 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: It looks like he's even gonna make the playoffs. That 183 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: was bad. That was bad on That's one game. Blah 184 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah. But that's all I 185 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: have to do this show right now, It's all I 186 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: have to go out. He sucked. Rogers was garbage in 187 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: that game, okay, And if this keeps up, forget a quarterback, 188 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: coach or a wide receiver. He's gonna need a lifeguard 189 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: because he's drowning. The whole offense is drowning out. There 190 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 1: was a gigantic turn Berger is what they served up there. 191 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: And Rogers now, he said after the game that he 192 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: feels good and that he'll play better and he's gonna 193 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: do better decision making and all that. You know, come on, 194 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: all right now, turning the page. As for the big 195 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: picture again, better story in the losing locker room now. 196 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin also said, regarding the situation, the steels are 197 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: and he said, there's quote nothing mystical about it. He said, 198 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: he says we'll be back, he claimed, will be better. 199 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: We have to be close. Quote from the very verbose 200 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin. A good SoundBite, really good sound bite, Mike 201 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: tom top five sound bite coach. We don't do lists. 202 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, top five sound bite coach. Big board, 203 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: not list, big board not list. So the question here 204 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: it is how much stalk? How much stalk do you 205 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: put into Mike Tomlin promising that these Steelers will be back, 206 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: will be back? Is the quote for Mike Tomlin. So 207 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: my first reaction, much like when Aaron Rodgers says, hey, uh, 208 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: you know, I feel good, we'll play better, when Mike 209 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: Tomlin says something similar, it's like, well, what else you 210 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: supposed to say? Like you imagine if Tomlin had come 211 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: out as the coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers and say, 212 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: well we stink boys, we'll just shut it down and 213 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: get ready for next year. Load management, lot management. He 214 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: can't say that, So it's coach speak. One oh one, 215 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: you gotta say something. And so we'll be back as 216 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: just Tom Linese. What is tomlines? It's a we're not 217 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: going to forfeit yet. Now we're not. We just decided 218 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: not to forfeit. We'll try to play the game. Can congratulations. 219 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: So the Steelers are going to show up next week 220 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: and the Steelers can say hellllelujah, hellllelujah. Now, why can't 221 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: they say halluh? The problem is not the pep talk. 222 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: Pep talk really means all that much. It's the quality 223 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: control of the product. It has not been consistent. The 224 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: defense was atrocious the beginning of the year. The defense 225 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: has played a little bit better now. The offense falls 226 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: apart one thing. It's like playing whack a mole, like 227 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: you got one problem, you slap that down, and then 228 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: another one pops up over he way. I only got 229 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: two halves, I only got two hours what he's supposed 230 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: to do. And so Rogers looked like watching him play 231 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: in the first half of that game and into the 232 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 1: third quarter, it looked like he had gone out prior 233 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: to the game and he was tailgating with like Joe Rogan, 234 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: even though Rogan lives in Texas, but they some maybe 235 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: flew out to La They were tailgating. They had like 236 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: a frosty mug of ayahuasca. And Rogers went out there 237 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: and he was seeing demons to the right and he 238 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: was seeing aliens to the left, and it was wild, 239 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: wild goes spook. It was a comedy of errors is 240 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: what it was. And now the good news is and 241 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: I said, hallelujah, the good news is up next be 242 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: ben Gals. They suck. If you don't have success in 243 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: offense against the Cincinnati Bengals, then you might want to 244 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: go and get your pulse checked because you might be dead. Okay, 245 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: they suck. So that's the good news. That's the silver 246 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: lining playbook for Mike Tomlin and for Aaron Rodgers. You 247 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: got Cincinnati their easy mark. You still got to show up. 248 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: You gotta win the game. You'll get a focused Pittsburgh 249 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: team next week. The question is is this going to 250 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: be what Rogers is the rest of the way. Who knows, 251 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: But Mike Tomlin can talk about and he loves the quote. 252 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: The standard is the standard. It's the iconic Mike Tomlin 253 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: quote from his time in Pittsburgh with the if you 254 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: look at the drive through menu board right now, if 255 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: you look at the drive through menu board there it 256 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: says here and you can look at up it says 257 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: a standard lately has been mediocrity. And then they've got 258 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: a side dish with the combo on the drive through menu. 259 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: You've got mediocrity and then a side of false hope 260 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: aside of false hope. So you've got a little bit 261 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: of that, a little bit of this. It's all kind 262 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: of mixed agether now the last word among and I 263 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: did see this. It was multitasking and people were telling 264 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: me old stories that they didn't really want to hear, 265 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: but they kept on me anyway. The other storyline was 266 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: the crowd and it's not new. It's been this way 267 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: ever since the NFL left Los Angeles for a generation 268 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: and came back. Certain teams that have a rich history 269 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: packed the stadium, in this case the Pittsburgh Steelers. It 270 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: might as well have been in the confluence there with 271 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: the they formed the Ohio River, the Monongahela and the 272 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: Alleghany give birth to a baby might as well have 273 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: had that. They had a little man made lake out front. 274 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: So far that they have there. But the NBC cameras 275 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: you couldn't help but miss it. You couldn't. You couldn't 276 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: avoid it, is what I'm trying to say. The cameras 277 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: showed and now we were shocked by it, shouldn't be 278 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: shocked by it was happens every time they play a 279 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: legacy team like the Packers. Steelers of the forty nine 280 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: ers teams that have huge followings. So the cameras kept 281 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: showing these Steeler fans waving the terrible towels, and a 282 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: buddy of mine in the press box is like, hey, 283 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: did they give those out? I said, why would they 284 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: give out terrible towels? That's a Pittsburgh thing, you dummy. 285 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: They don't give those out. But it looked like it 286 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: was saying a promotion. Everyone had one. Everyone had a 287 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: Terrible towel. At one point, I think the Charger fans 288 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: started holding them up. They were like, hey, they're yellow. 289 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: We'll make it about that. And so you had Mike 290 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: Rico on the broadcast. He said, and he was being 291 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: generous when he said sixty five percent. He estimated a 292 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 1: pro Steeler crowd as sixty five percent. Other estimates said 293 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: seventy percent. I did the malor math and I was there, 294 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: so boots on the ground, I said seventy five percent 295 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: Steeler fans seventy five percent. The place was packed. It 296 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 1: was absolutely packed. Everyone in the house there with the 297 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: black and yellow, black and yellow, black and yellow, black 298 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: and yellow all that. So the question is this embarrassing 299 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: for the NFL that you have an Island game, Island Game, 300 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: Sunday Night football. Yet again, Chargers there, and they've been 301 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: in LA for a while now, and they have not 302 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: been able to develop a fan base in LA. And 303 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: here's the latest example example. A your honor the defense 304 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: now rest, so listen. It is I would not say 305 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: it's embarrassing. I'm looking. I'm not gonna use the word embarrassing. 306 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: The word that should be used here, and I like words. 307 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: Inevitable is the word I will use. So I'm gonna 308 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: use the word inevitable. And the reason I'm using the 309 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: word inevable. The Chargers ghosted San Diego. You know how 310 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 1: you're sending you a date and you might just yeah, 311 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: you go out and date, you get a free meal, 312 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: you blow the other person off. I'm gonna contact them again. 313 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 1: So the Chargers ghosted the city of San Diego. Now 314 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: you know some of you know I started in radio 315 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,880 Speaker 1: in San Diego. I was there as a young lad. 316 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: The Chargers got to a Super Bowl. The town was electric. 317 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: It was a loyal fan base of Charger fans in 318 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: San Diego. And the franchise, the Spanos family, said screw you, 319 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,959 Speaker 1: We're done. That's it. And so they and I know this. 320 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 1: I've had this explained to me by some people that 321 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: work for the Chargers years ago. When they first came 322 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: to LA. They said, listen, we're gonna get a certain 323 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: percentage of people that are going to drive up from 324 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: San Diego, and they're gonna make the drive every Sunday. 325 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a thing. And then they're gonna go back. 326 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: And so they figured they'd have that, and then they'd 327 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 1: adds slowly, they'd add fans in LA. Could not have 328 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: been more wrong, could not have been more wrong. I 329 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: love when really educated people who have gone through all 330 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: of academia have had all that crap and they just 331 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: are complete morons people. There's a few Charger fans that 332 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: make the trip up in San Diego, very few. The 333 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: town's pretty much like, screw you, we hate all things LA. 334 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: We're not going up there. You people come down here 335 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: on the weekends and run amok in our city. So 336 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: we're out. And so you can't just reboot a fan 337 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: base like you can reboot a computer or a phone. 338 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: It's not the way it works. Obviously. You certainly can't 339 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: get all of a sudden loyal large numbers of loyal fans. 340 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: There are loyal Charger fans, it's just not many, not 341 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: many of them. And you know, San Diego say what 342 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: you want, military towns, surfer town, all that. But they 343 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: did love the Chargers. They did, and they were rewarded 344 00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: with the bird from the NFL and from the Spanos family. Well, 345 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: the reality is hardly anybody cares about the Chargers in LA. 346 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 1: They're just kind of background noise, if you will, in 347 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: between commercials and they pop up and you're like, why 348 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: is the Charger game? I don't want to watch the 349 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: Charger game. Why don't we get another game? Well, that's 350 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 1: the game because they're in LA, so you get to 351 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: charge again. But I don't want to charge again. But 352 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 1: that's the game. That's what you get. Nine years they've 353 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 1: been back. It's been nine years already. The Chargers have 354 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: been back in LA and most of the time they're 355 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 1: playing road games and it doesn't affect the outcome. And 356 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say people make a big deal about it. 357 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 1: They love to talk about home field. It doesn't The 358 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: Chargers won this game. It was a Steeler home game. 359 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: The Rams win most of their home games when there's 360 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: other fans from the other teams. It doesn't matter. It 361 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: feels good if you're a fan of another team. Like 362 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: I know the Niner fans love when they come to 363 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: La to play the Rams and it's like a Niner 364 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: home game. They love it. Ms win most of the time. 365 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: When the other team has more fans than the Chargers, 366 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: it doesn't affect him. But it does take at least 367 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 1: a generation, at least a generation to cultivate, to grow. 368 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: If you're a Farmer, it takes a generation to grow 369 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: on fan base. Right, twenty years, it's been nine, So 370 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: if you do the math on that, eleven more years. 371 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:15,439 Speaker 1: Holy crap, we're looking at twenty thirty six, twenty thirty 372 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 1: six before you start to feel any kind of local, 373 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: local family. And that's the kids that became charge of 374 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: fans that now have become adults and then they're starting 375 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: families and crap like that. That's what that is. Now, 376 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: you can fast track it. You can fast track it 377 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: the way you would fast track it is to win 378 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 1: a couple of Super Bowls. Because everyone's a front runner. 379 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: Everyone's a band wagner, as Blair and Maine likes to say, 380 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: And so you can zip things along a little faster. 381 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: The Chargers don't look like a super Bowl team to me? 382 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: Do they look like a super Bowl team to you? 383 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: They don't look like a super Bowl team to me. 384 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,160 Speaker 1: They like a typical middle of the pack good team, 385 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: not great team where five things happen, right, meaning a 386 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 1: couple of quarterbacks break their ankles or whatever, you could 387 00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: go to the super Bowl. Other than that, eh, they'll 388 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: win their ten or eleven games, and they'll be a 389 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: playoff team and they're losing the first or the second 390 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: weekend of the NFL playoffs, and that'll be that. And 391 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: so meanwhile, the Steeler fans generation, which under the mathot 392 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 1: so nineteen seventies, the great Steeler teams with Terry Bradshaw 393 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: on that great defense. And so you fast forward out 394 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: for those people in the seventies had kids, so then 395 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 1: they became adults in the nineties. So then those people 396 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: they had kids maybe in the twenty tens, right, So 397 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 1: now we're on to another generation of Steeler fans. And 398 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 1: it was crazy, man, I was looking around. I want 399 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: to I saw her buddy, Eddie, the Great Eddie Garcia 400 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: caught up with him. Had a little pow wow with 401 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: Eddie down there he had full Steeler gear on I 402 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: couldn't find him because he had full steeler gear. If 403 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: you want to stand out, you should want to charge 404 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: your jersey. I would have found him right away, King 405 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: Eddy right there. But it was like a black and yellow, 406 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: black and yellow circus. It was like Halloween had continued 407 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: here and it was like a pajama party mixed with Halloween. 408 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: There were dudes with homemade costumes. It was pretty pretty intense. 409 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 3: Man. 410 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: These guys have spent a lot of time and effort 411 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 1: to come up with the right look. And now some 412 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: of it was store bought, you know. Some of it 413 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 1: was just what you can find online. But it looked 414 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: like there were some things I had never seen before. 415 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: I saw a lot of Steely McBean, which is I 416 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: thought that was kind of have a mascot. Eddie hated 417 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: the mascot. But I saw a lot of shirts with 418 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 1: Steely McBean on it and all that stuff. So anyway, 419 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,239 Speaker 1: there's the deal. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If 420 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: you'd like to be part eight seven, seven ninety nine 421 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: on five, anything goes. Obviously we'll focus on the Sunday 422 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: Night game here, but we had a full card. Another 423 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: win for the Patriots. Another win for the Colts, so 424 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: they had to go to overtime in Berlin to begin 425 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: the day. The Ravens are in really good shape. In fact, 426 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: straight ahead. It is amazing poetry.

Ferg Dog says, stop making fun of 472 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: the lack of charger fans at so far, there were 473 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: plenty of us there. Maybe you were just looking in 474 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: the wrong place. It would be a wise move. I 475 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: think the charger fans that showed up that was a 476 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 1: mistake because you're better off selling it. You could get 477 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: three or four times the money for face value the 478 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: secondary mark. The upper bowl tickets like near the near 479 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: the Pearly gates were going for four hundred dollars. My god, 480 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 1: what else do you have to see that page? Van 481 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 1: Andrea points out that just a reminder from the Astrology Insider. 482 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: She says, mercury retrograde November ninth through the twenty ninth, 483 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: All Aaron Rodgers, what while that's why Rogers wrote devinement comment, 484 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: That's why he rode Devin comment right there, what else 485 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 1: do I see? Page Dan, We'll skip over that one. 486 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 1: Curtis right, sin Athough, I think he misspelled his own name, 487 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,199 Speaker 1: says the biggest thing standing in the way of the 488 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: Chargers having a bigger fan base is the Rams. There's 489 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: enough people in LA for two teams. It's a massive metropolis. 490 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: There's plenty of people in LA. Matt Jack says, I 491 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: used to live in San Diego, but you didn't have 492 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: to live there to see the TV that the Packers 493 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 1: and other legacy teams would drown out Charger fans at 494 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 1: Qualcomm in San Diego. That is true, Jack, but it 495 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: was never like this. It was never like this. It 496 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: was never to that level. So it's just a whole 497 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: different stratosphere where we are right now. Brock says, Aaron 498 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: Rodgers is washed.

I don't think he was 508 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: in attendance, but his heart was. We sailo to Sean 509 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: the Hood Guy, who's a longtime officionato of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hello, 510 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 1: Sean the Hood Guy, Welcome man. 511 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 6: It's not a good day, man. What embarrassment all that 512 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 6: at that whole game? 513 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 3: That was on? 514 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 6: Ann Rodgers Aaron Rodgers. You can't be coming to Kelly 515 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 6: and smoking that Kelly cush before you play a game, 516 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 6: because your mind was not on that game. Too many 517 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 6: the guy was getting sacked on the ball, look like 518 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 6: they didn't have no receivers. A throw to the defense 519 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 6: was kind of showing a little bit. 520 00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: Of flashes, but it was there were guys all open 521 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,719 Speaker 1: throughout the game. He just didn't find them. They were 522 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: they were there. I mean I saw him. Maybe it 523 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: was just in the press box, but it looked there 524 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: were guys that were open. He just wasn't making the 525 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: players to connect with them. So it's not like the 526 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: Chargers shut everyone down. They didn't. There were people open 527 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: and he just didn't didn't find them. So that's bad 528 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: job by him. But he was only sacked three times. 529 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 1: It seemed it seemed like he was sacked more than that. 530 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 6: But yeah, go ahead, that's a sorry performance. 531 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: Man. 532 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 6: Being a Steeler fan is like being on a magic 533 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 6: mountain ride. You get on too many rides, you're gonna 534 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 6: be sick. And the way they be raising my high 535 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 6: my blood pressure, my high blood press appeals should be 536 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 6: black and yellow because they be just having me sick. 537 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 6: They'd be spinning, like one day that we would have 538 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 6: a good game, then the next day we have a 539 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 6: bad game. So it's like my friend asked me, should 540 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 6: I've been on the Steelers this week? And I told 541 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 6: him no, I said. We beat the coach like that, 542 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 6: I said, but we bound to have a bad game 543 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 6: the next game. And they not looking in the rear 544 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 6: view mirror. The ravens is creeping up, and the guys 545 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 6: on TV and the suits they all talking about you. 546 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 6: They creeping up on the aren't creeping up on us? 547 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 6: And don't be surprised if we started dropping games and 548 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 6: they come right pastes and pass us uthing. 549 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: Well, they are the math on this, and that was 550 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: the teams showing the hood guys. So it's like poetry here. 551 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: The Ravens started one in five and at one in 552 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: five they were still the betting favorite to win the division. 553 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: It's almost like the gambling market knew something. The Ravens 554 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: now are one game back of your Steelers for first 555 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: place in the division, and the next five opponents for 556 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: the Ravens. If you look at the next five games, 557 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: there are against four sub five hundred teams and versus 558 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: the Steelers at home. That's what is up ahead for 559 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: the Ravens. 560 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 6: Sound like heat a schedule of me, man, But watching 561 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 6: that game.
