So we in 26 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 4: America eighteen oh nine, eighteen oh nine. The Salvation Army 27 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 4: in nineteen eighteen set up canteens in the front lines 28 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 4: of World War One and they provided care for the 29 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 4: soldiers who were mangled in World War One, and they 30 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 4: provided donuts. 31 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 3: And can you imagine today if they did that.

But we're 76 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 4: gonna start with the football Eddie. And I'll make it 77 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 4: very simple. Thumbs up or thumbs down on Aaron Rogers 78 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 4: joining your Pittsburgh Steel was give me the inside, skinny, Eddie. 79 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: I guess I have to give it a thumbs up 80 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: considering what the alternatives were, which were a bunch of 81 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: crap on the roster now or like going and getting 82 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan or something. I mean, the options, the option, 83 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean, seriously, what were they gonna Are they really 84 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: gonna go into the season with the crap they had 85 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 1: at quarterback before this news came down? 86 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 3: Yeah? 87 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: So I mean, am I happy about it? No? Am 88 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: I excited about it? Not really? But is it? Is 89 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: it under the circumstances, you know, a better option than 90 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: what they were gonna have? Apparently? 91 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it does count. 92 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 4: It counts as an upgrade, is what you're saying, because 93 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 4: Mason Rudolph, the Red Noose quarterback was no. It is 94 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 4: a sad Rogers looked pretty cooked right with the Jets. Yes, yes, 95 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 4: I agree, like they didn't have a lot left and 96 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 4: just the whole, the whole shebang and all that. But 97 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 4: the way I look at it, and you, obviously, Eddie, 98 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 4: you have skin in the game because you have terrible. 99 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 3: Dowels and you have how many Steeler jerseys do you own? 100 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: Eddie? Oh gosh, probably about ten? 101 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 4: Ten? 102 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 5: Ten? 103 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought maybe it was like three or four. 104 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 4: I didn't realize it was ten. Now it's like it's 105 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 4: like ten ten, Now do you have? Like I mean, 106 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 4: oh boy, let see, we should do a game. Can 107 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 4: we name how many? 108 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,119 Speaker 3: I'm gonna do that game. 109 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 4: But before we get we'll try I'll try to guess 110 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 4: how many legendary Steeler jerseys Eddie has just off the 111 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 4: top there. 112 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 1: But it might be more than ten now that I 113 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: think about it. But we'll play the game. 114 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 3: We'll play the game. 115 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 4: But yeah, so I look at it like this, uh, 116 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 4: and this is as you know, I'm very objective, Eddie. 117 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 3: I never just you raw emotion. 118 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 4: But you had, if you're Pittsburgh, you had the third 119 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 4: ranked quarterback in the division prior to this, right, because 120 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 4: you had Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow are ahead of 121 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 4: everyone else, and so they're there. And then thank God 122 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 4: for the Browns. I think you could Eddie for the 123 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 4: Steelers and. 124 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: You would still be better. 125 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 3: Off than with the Browns. 126 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 4: Aff So, so you had, you still have the third 127 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 4: ranked quarterback. 128 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 3: And think of it, Eddie. 129 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 4: For those of us, you know, you're you're a big podcaster, 130 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 4: muckety muck, you know, and those that do this kind 131 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 4: of stuff, think of the great conversations that Aaron Rodgers 132 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 4: will inspire. Either he'll be amazing, he'll have there's two 133 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 4: ways this goes. Right, he has a career renaissance and 134 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 4: this is the the classic. 135 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 3: You know how in. 136 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 4: Hollywood you have the high, the low, and then the 137 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 4: redemption story. It's that or he just doesn't give a 138 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 4: crap and he picks up the nickname Alleghany Aaron from 139 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 4: you know, having tea parties out in the woods around 140 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 4: Pittsburgh with Mike Tomlin and the players. 141 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 3: And there's like, I don't think there's a middle ground here. 142 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 3: I don't think there's just like middle ground. And either way, 143 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 3: the Steelers are gonna win. 144 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,559 Speaker 4: What are you think with nine or ten games something 145 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 4: like that, no matter what, right, they always win around 146 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 4: that number. 147 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they'll make the playoffs and they'll lose the 148 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: first round. 149 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 3: So you got it all man. 150 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of funny because I used to 151 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: like Russell Wilson. I used to like watching him play. 152 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: I thought he was a pretty fun player to watch. 153 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,679 Speaker 1: Thought he was pretty good when he was with Seattle 154 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: in the heyday, and then I don't know if it 155 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: was social media or what, he kind of turned into 156 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: a very unlikable douche. And then he started bouncing around 157 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: on different teams, and when he came to the Steelers, 158 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: I was not excited about it at all. I didn't 159 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: think he was going to do much. He actually played 160 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: a little bit better than I thought they would early on, 161 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: but then he ended up being the guy I thought 162 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: it was gonna be, which is not very good. And 163 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: now he's gone the same thing with Aaron Rodgers. There 164 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: was nobody in the NFL that I enjoyed watching throw 165 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: the football more than Aaron Rodgers. I loved how he 166 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: threw the ball. It made it look so effortless, and 167 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: he was fun to watch. And then he started doing 168 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: interviews and he was on shows, and then you kind 169 00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: of realized what a douche she was and it became 170 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: more about him as a personality than what he was 171 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: doing on the field. And now he's coming to my 172 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: team again, and I feel the exact same way that 173 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: I did on Russell Wilson joint.

I'm all about the stars. Connor McDavid 349 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 4: is the big star. But the Florida Panthers in that game, 350 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 4: they only played well for one really one period in 351 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 4: my analysis, and in the in the third period in particular, Yeah, 352 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 4: look like they were I don't know what they were. 353 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 4: They were skating in sand or something. Can you explain, 354 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 4: Eddie how that happened? I mean, I I was like, again, 355 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 4: I picked Edmonton. So I'm happy Edmonton won and all that, 356 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 4: but I could not believe how poorly Florida looked in 357 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 4: the in that late part of the game, like they 358 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 4: worn out. 359 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 3: Well. 360 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: Apparently they tried to take a page from the La 361 00:15:56,160 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: Kings postseason playbook and just crapped themselves in the third 362 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: period of games against the Oilers. Now, two shots on 363 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: goal in the third period is pathetic after seventeen shots 364 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: on goal in the second period. I mean, talk about 365 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: a complete flip of the script. But and I look, 366 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: I hate the Edmondson Oilers with a passion, and I 367 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: am rooting very hard for the Florida Panthers. But Edmonton 368 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: had to win that game. When it's in overtime and 369 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: they get a power play because dumb dumb threw it 370 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: off the playing service and end of the crowd Toomas, 371 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: no sick for Florida, Like you're like, they have to 372 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: win this game. They've been the better team. They've got 373 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: home ice this year. They didn't have it last year. 374 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: The stars have showed up for him. McDavid and dry 375 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: Title are already playing well and here they are in 376 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: overtime at home against the defending Stanley Cup champs. They 377 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: have to win this game. I thought if they were 378 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: to blow that game, it would have been a gigantic defeat. 379 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: But they get the power play. McDavid sets up dry 380 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: see I'll drive home safely and all all is happy 381 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: north of the border. But a very solid performance for Edmonton. 382 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: I picked him to win the series because my picks 383 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: have been so bad that I'm trying to do the 384 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: reverse voodoo on them. Yeah. Yeah, I picked against them 385 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: in every round, including against my kings, and they've won 386 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 1: every round. So now I'm like, okay, enough, I'm going 387 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: to try it the other way and see how it goes. 388 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: But no, that was I thought that was a hell 389 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: of a game. One goes over time, you have the 390 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 1: lead change, you have some controversy with the goalie interference thing, 391 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: and then you know, it ends up going in overtime 392 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 1: and the stars, you know, like I said, McDavid and 393 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: dry Settle show up. So a terrific start to the 394 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: Stanley Cup Finals for the NHL. 395 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 3: And my day ed the broadcast on tn T. 396 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 397 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 4: You know, friend the great Kenny Albert, who I know, 398 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 4: you know because he's he used to listen to the 399 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 4: occasional Malor Overnight listener and he's, uh, you know, I 400 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 4: love that and you know sports with Coleman pal And 401 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 4: and Eddie Oldchuk when I you remember by briefly did 402 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,680 Speaker 4: that crap at the studio show at NBC years ago, 403 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 4: and he was at one of the copy and one 404 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 4: time I've told I used to tell this, Sory Eddie, 405 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 4: you got to kick out of this because I at 406 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 4: one time the guy that was supposed to be on 407 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 4: set to talk about hockey wasn't there, so I had 408 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 4: to talk hockey and and he just busted my balls. 409 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 3: He just thought that was funny. 410 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 4: I'm like this, meetthead football fan and I had to 411 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 4: like breakdown, breakdown hockey. 412 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 3: It was really funny. 413 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: Now. 414 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 3: The other thing, as you know that the number. 415 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 4: One cliche in the playoffs that he's a series does 416 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 4: not start until the home team loses. 417 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 1: So yeah, that's usually an NBA thing though, isn't it, 418 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: But it works in hockey. 419 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,400 Speaker 3: Two. I think it works in hockey too. 420 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: Because the road teams win so often in hockey. 421 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 4: I believe it still works though I'm going fine, Shay, 422 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 4: So it hasn't really started until the home team loses 423 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 4: and then the things. The other thing is everything I 424 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 4: read as I did my copious amounts of research was 425 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 4: that we're Stuart Skinner blows but he's playing well good 426 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 4: and then but it was a bold strategy by Florida 427 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 4: to not even really test Stuart Skinner from. 428 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 3: Most of the game. Like if you if you have 429 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: a weak link, don't you. 430 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 4: Isn't sports one oh one or just any You just 431 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 4: attack the weak link. And Florida did not put any pressure, 432 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 4: did not make Stuart Skinner make saves late in the game. 433 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 3: They just know how many shots they had. 434 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 4: It's like, if that's the week you have, you're supposedly 435 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 4: have the better goaltender. 436 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 3: Although you did blow a three. 437 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 4: To one lead, so I don't don't know how good 438 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 4: Browsky was blowing that lead. 439 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 3: But Stuart Skinner ady, who your Kings? 440 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 4: How many goals did they score against him before they 441 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 4: finally choked, you. 442 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 3: Know, the third period of those games? 443 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: But my god, well he got he got benched after 444 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: the first two games the Kings won, and he didn't 445 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: get back in until someone got hurt. That's the only 446 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: reason he's playing is because the backup Calvin Picker, who's 447 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 1: six and oh in the playoffs, but he can't get 448 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: his job back now because Skinner has come back and 449 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 1: now they're winning with him. But he is definitely the 450 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: week league CA and you're a hundred center right. They 451 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: have to wait, they have to put more pressure on him. 452 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 1: That third period was shocking that they would I think 453 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: it was the what was it the first time in 454 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: thirty something games they blew a three third period lead 455 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: under their head coach Paul Maurice. 456 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 4: There was something like, oh yeah, yeah when they had 457 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 4: to lead at the end of the first and second period. 458 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: I saw they were thirty one to zer going into 459 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: the third period with the lead in playoff games under 460 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: Paul Maurice. So bye bye to that. But they only 461 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: have themselves to play them, obviously, But it also didn't 462 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: they look they can't. The Oilers had to had to 463 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: win that game. They take advantage that dumb play where 464 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: the where you know, the delay a game puck off 465 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: the ice. I mean, they had to come through on 466 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: that one. And they did, and and Florida let the 467 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: door open for him, and and they orders took advantage. 468 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 3: All well, I've been told by one of my guys 469 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 3: in Boston, I gotta get any thought. The Bruins hired 470 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:57,959 Speaker 3: a new coach. Idiot. I don't even know if you 471 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 3: know this. 472 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, I know him very very well usually. 473 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, Marco st Strom is Storm Storm Marco sterm. 474 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know who this is. 475 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 4: But he is the thirtieth head coach of the Boston Bruins. 476 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 3: As you know, Eddie, we have a lot of listeners 477 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 3: there in Boston. 478 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 4: They love you and they love hockey and they I 479 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 4: wish Eddie was here to bring Okay. So Eddie, you're here, Bruh, 480 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 4: you're on the fifth hour. So good Hire bad higher. 481 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 4: I've never heard of the guy. 482 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: Well, he was the La Kings HL head coach, which 483 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: is if you're if you don't know what that means, 484 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 1: basically their Triple A team, if you know, if you're 485 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: more a baseball guy, he was. He was the head 486 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 1: coach of their farm team that's here in Ontario, California, 487 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 1: and he'd been there for many years. He had played 488 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,959 Speaker 1: briefly with the Kings. He played for the Bruins and 489 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: had ties to that organization. Those guys over there know him, 490 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: and uh, he was being groomed as being the next 491 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,479 Speaker 1: King's head coach at some point, but it never like 492 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: that was the thinking of it for for years and 493 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: it just kind of wasn't happening, and they kept because 494 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: the Kings felt like they were close. They didn't think 495 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: it was a good idea to hand over a team 496 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: that was, in their eyes, a Stanley Cup contender to 497 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: a guy who never coached in the NHL before, so 498 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: they hired Todd McClellan. Uh, and then they fire him 499 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: and they promote the interim coach, and they I don't 500 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 1: know if they thought that was gonna work out. But 501 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: then this guy leads them to you know, the the 502 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: tied for the most wins and points in a regular 503 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: season ever. But then he vomits in the playoffs. So 504 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,959 Speaker 1: I just think, you know, he had Marco Sturm had 505 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: been groomed to be a head coach. The Kings thought 506 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 1: highly of him. He had coached professionally in Europe for 507 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: a little while. So we'll see.

I 604 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,479 Speaker 4: did some math on this. The NFL season eighty is 605 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 4: like ninety something, maybe less. 606 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 3: Than that, I think remember less than ninety days away 607 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 3: from the NFL. 608 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 4: And you and your wife always going some road trips. 609 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 4: Have you planned anything this year? You are you eyeing something? 610 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 4: NFL road trip twenty twenty five? There is there something 611 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 4: you're looking at here. I'm guessing you're gonna do Chargers, 612 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 4: not Steelers, because you know. 613 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: You're well, the Steelers are once again coming to LA 614 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: to places right away. 615 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 3: Well, I'm gonna have to try to go to that game. 616 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 3: When is that game? 617 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: I'll have to try to go to that, gay, I'll 618 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: be a That is going to be Sunday night, so 619 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: that might not work out for you. That is on 620 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: November the ninth. 621 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 4: Okay, so that's somewhat that's like this, Well, I guess 622 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 4: it's not early in the season. That'd be a third 623 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 4: month of the year, right September. Okay, so it's been 624 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 4: October Neber, so yeah, okay, that'd be decent, you know, 625 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 4: not bad. So you don't have to go Pittsburgh. 626 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: Right any we are not going to Brazil, which is 627 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: the Chargers opener in Plo, Brazil. 628 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 4: Get the banana hammock out there, Come on, man, No, missus. 629 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: Garcia had no interest in going to South America. She 630 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: she was very upset that Europe was not on the 631 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: schedule there for the Chargers. Although the the you know, 632 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: if something, look, I'll be you know this is going 633 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: on with me. They're her, my wife, God bless her her. 634 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: She's got family members, her mom and her sister, who 635 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: are going through very difficult health issues right now. So 636 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: there are no plans for anything right now. You know 637 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: what I mean, We can't plan on anything. However, you know, 638 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: there the Steelers are playing in in Ireland this year 639 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: and that would be kind of a dream trip because 640 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: she wants to go to Ireland and seeing the Steelers 641 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: in Ireland would be pretty awesome. So it's if if 642 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: anything in you know, along, if if it aligns right, 643 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: maybe there's a chance that could happen. Uh, they're playing 644 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: the Packers. What a legacy kind of game that is. 645 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: That would be amazing, But it probably won't happen, to 646 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: be honest with you, but that would be a hell 647 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: of a trip. But we don't. We don't unfortunately right now. 648 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: Think everything's on hold. Everything is on hold right now. 649 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 4: So yeah, one thing that's not on hold is your podcasting. 650 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 3: As you are there the. 651 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 4: Joe Rogan of Hockey podcasts here dominating that world and 652 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 4: people I run up before I forget I did.

And they add like seven variables. To explain, 738 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 4: Eddie again, why this is ridiculous, Because what they do 739 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 4: is theyre when you were doing it.

But yeah, 747 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: we would. You know, back when I worked in the 748 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:53,479 Speaker 1: TV side of things, they would have some extraoc doing something. 749 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: Let's just say back in the day it was Steve 750 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: Sachs was the Baseball Insider exactly, and he and he 751 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: would say, you know, hey, I need something that shows 752 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: that the White Sox bullpen is one of the best 753 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: bullpins in all of Major League Baseball, and then they'd 754 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: spin out some stat that he could throw out there 755 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: and you'd completely ignore some other stat that says that's 756 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: complete crap, but it it's just you could find any 757 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: stat to justify just about any other opinion.
